Chapter 304


    “Mom, I really…”


    “Enough! Shut up, why are you still lying?”


    Martha was mad. This useless guy was still lying about this? “Right,e back for a while. There’s


    going to be a guest in the house. Come back and act as the supporting role.”


    After she said that, Martha hung up the phone. She mmed the phone down on the coffee table with


    her cheeks puffed in anger.


    “What’s wrong? Did Philip make you upset again?” Charles asked after noticing the changes in


    Martha’s expression.


    “That wretched bum is still lying to me. He said he bought a house at Longford Park. You have no idea,


    the mansions over there cost at least 35 million! Is he crazy? How can he say something like this?”


    Martha gritted her teeth in anger.


    Charles shook his head helplessly. He sighed and asked all of a sudden, “Will you move there if he has


    really bought a house at Longford Park?”


    Martha was taken aback. She frowned and pointed at the door after getting up. She shouted, “He’s just


    a worthless piece of trash. How can he afford a house at Longford Park? Let’s not talk about that ce


    anymore. I’ll cook and clean for him every day even if he buys a vi in the hills for me. I’ll serve him


    tea and wait on him!”


    When Charles heard this, he shook his head even more. He did not say anything else.


    His wife was like this.


    “Right, I forgot to tell you, Charlie. Joel Harris ising over in a bit. Go buy some ingredients, I’ll cook


    for himter.”


    Martha sat down suddenly as a huge grin appeared on her face.


    “Joel Harris? Old Man Harris’ boy? Isn’t he studying overseas? He’s back?” Charles was shocked. He


    removed his presbyopic sses.


    “Of course! That kid is just amazing. He did his Ph.D. overseas, and now he’s the CEO of a listed


    company. Wynnie is one of the reasons why he came back this time.”


    When Martha talked about Joel, her face was glowing. She was absolutely beaming. It was as if she


    was bragging about how great her own son was. “Do you remember how we disagreed when they


    dated each other in senior high? I think that idiot boy wants toe back and continue his rtionship


    with Wynnie.”


    “Wynnie is already married. Why are you still trying to do this?”


    Charles was taken aback. He did not understand what Martha meant.


    “Say, are you stupid? So what if she’s married? Is that piece of trash Philip better than Joel? Plus, you


    can get a divorce after you’re married. As long as Joel still has feelings for Wynnie, we’ll just give him a


    hand.”


    Martha smiled and said. Her eyes were twinkling with joy.


    “Aren’t you separating the love birds this way? Why are you always doing something so immoral?”


    Charles could not take this anymore


    When Martha heard this, she was unhappy. She said, “Me? Immoral? Do you want our daughter to


    spend the rest of her life with that piece of trash?”


    Charles did not say anything. He got up and left to buy the ingredients.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    What an unreasonable woman.


    Philip stayed with M for a while before calling a cab to go back to the Old Johnston Manor.


    When he was at the door, he saw a brand new Porsche.


    This guest was pretty wealthy.


    Philip walked into the house and saw Martha chatting with a young man with a huge smile on her face.


    There were all kinds of sliced fruits in front of them.


    “Joel, I’ve already given Wynnie a call. She’lle back in a bit. I heard you’re working in Hodgson


    Pharmaceutical and that you’re also the CEO.”


    Martha looked very passionate.


    Joel Harris was the CEO of the listedpany, Hodgson Pharmaceutical. He studied overseas for six


    years and had just returned to the country. Plus, his family was rich. He was the young master of Harris


    Enterprise.


    He and Wynn were the golden couple when they were in senior high. They had a short period of


    romance, but in the end, their rtionship failed.


    Martha was still brooding about this until now. She had been blind back then. That was why she did not


    agree to their rtionship.


    At the same time, Philip came back.


    “Aunt Martha, who is this?” Joel was shocked when he saw a maning in through the door.


    Martha red at Philip in agitation and changed the subject. “It’s fine, just ignore him. Let’s talk about


    you. Uncle Charlie is out to buy some ingredients. He’ll be back in a bit. You should just stay for dinner.


    We haven’t seen you in so long. Wynnie must have missed you so much.”


    Wynn? Miss him?


    Philip felt awkward. He stood at the door and did not know what to say.


    He could tell that his mother-inw was purposely hiding his identity.


    Philip did not say anything. When he was about to go into the bedroom, Martha scolded, “Why are you


    standing there? Hurry up and get a ss of water for Joel.”


    Philip grunted a reply and poured a new ss of water before handing it to Joel politely.


    Joel also epted the ss courteously and thanked him. Then, he asked curiously, “Aunt Martha, did


    you hire a male housekeeper?”


    Housekeeper?


    Damn it!


    Philip was enraged.


    Martha chuckled and did not exin. If she knew that this would have happened, she would not have


    asked Philip toe back.


    Coincidentally, Wynn came back too.


    “Mom, why did you ask me toe back in such a hurry?”


    Wynn was wearing a ck pantsuit. She was tall and slender. Her temperament as an officedy was


    alluring.


    When Joel saw Wynn, his eyes were filled with love. He got up and said, “Wynnie, you’re back.”


    Wynn was shocked. She looked at Joel, and her face bloomed like a flower. She said excitedly, “Joel,


    when did youe back?”


    After she said that, Joel walked over and hugged Wynn in front of Philip. He said softly, “I just got back.


    I’ve been thinking about you every day for the past few years. It’s great to see you.”


    F*cking hell!


    Philip’s face fell immediately.
