Chapter 439


    When Martha heard that, she started trembling. She pulled her nket over her head and pretended to


    sleep.


    However, the trembling nket clearly showed how terrified Martha was right now.


    “Martha!”


    Philip was livid. Martha did not have a limit. How could she make her daughter fall into a trap like this?


    Philip was vehement. This mother-inw of the year hadpletely disappointed him!


    He barged into the room and spotted Martha curled up under the nket. The entire nket was


    shaking.


    “Get up!”


    Philip yelled.


    Charles tried to stop Philip. He said, “Alright, Philip. Nothing bad happened, right? Plus, your mom had


    no choice. You can’t me herpletely.”


    Philip red at Charles and said angrily, “Charles Johnston, stay back!”


    Charles was stunned. He was shocked by Philip’s cold and angry words. He walked to one side while


    trembling.


    This time, Martha shot up from under her nket. She had been watching the entire thing from a small


    corner under her nket. She cowered and yelled, “Philip, please don’t hit me! I was wrong! I was


    wrong! Please don’t hit me!”


    Martha was terrified. She was worried that Philip would really kill her!


    He was so cruel in the vi. He left a deep impression on Martha.


    Philip red at Martha angrily and warned, “Martha, I’m warning you! If you dare to do something that’ll


    harm Wynn in the future, you’ll be the first I go after! You should watch yourself!”


    After he said that, Philip left the room while clenching his fists.


    He wanted to teach Martha a lesson, but she had already been badly beaten. Plus, she was still


    Wynn’s mother at the end of the day, so he could not bring himself to do it.

    He would just give her another chance. If she still refused to change, Philip would not mind making her


    live in regret for the rest of her life.


    After Philip left the room, Martha let out a sigh of relief. She red at Charles and wailed, “You useless


    man! Didn’t you see that he was going to hit me? How could you hide? You have the audacity to hide!


    I’m your wife!”


    Charles’ face was cold. He red at her and scolded, “Not only Philip, but even I want to hit you!


    You’ve done something stupid and you’re the righteous one now, huh?”


    Martha was shocked when Charles scolded her suddenly.


    At home, Charles always listened to her. He was afraid of her.


    However, she did not expect him to scold her after what happened.


    In a blink of an eye, Martha felt extremely wronged. She bawled and rolled around unreasonably. She


    yelled, “All of you are bullying me now, huh? Am I not a human? What could I have done? I was being


    threatened! Don’t I know that Wynn’s my daughter? You’re all bullying me. Can I still be in charge of


    this family? I don’t want to live anymore!”


    Martha was angry and sad.


    That good-for-nothing Philip was so powerful all of a sudden. She could not ept it in such a short


    period.


    As for Philip’s identity, she did not dare to ask.


    Did she have to humble herself when she was around with him?


    Charles was so fierce toward her. Was she not a human being anymore?


    Charles had been annoyed and agitated by Martha’s unreasonable behavior for the past ten or so


    years. He turned around and left the room angrily to visit Wynn.


    When Philip went back to Wynn’s room, he saw a beautiful figure. It was Chloe.


    He saw Chloe and Wynn chatting on the bed.


    Chloe had a stack of documents in her hands. She smiled at Wynn and said, “Wynn, go back and read


    these carefully. I hope you consider this.”


    “Why are you here?” Philip frowned.


    “You’re here.”


    Chloe stood up when she saw Philip. There was an undetectable shyness on her face, but she still


    pretended to be cold. She said, “I’m here to visit Wynn, and since I’m here, Aunt Martha too.”


    Philip nodded his head coldly and looked at the documents in Wynn’s hand. He asked tly, “Wynnie,


    give her back her things.”


    Chloe’s expression looked forced.


    “Philip, don’t be so aggressive toward me. We’re still friends, after all.”


    Wynn tried to ease the tension after she felt the awkwardness in the air.


    She wanted to present herself to look magnanimous. She did not want Philip to be in a tough position.


    “Wynn, please don’t misunderstand. Philip and I are just normal friends.”


    Chloe looked at Wynn’s magnanimous expression and could not help but feel jealous. She even felt


    defeated. No wonder Philip was not interested in her anymore.


    This woman was so good at acting!


    Was this how she got Philip? By acting?


    Chloe changed her strategy. If she could not do it the hard way, she would use the soft way.


    Actually, Chloe’s beauty could bepared to Wynn’s. However, their heights were slightly different.


    Wynn was 170cm and stood out among most women.


    Especially her long and slender legs. They could kill all living things whoid eyes on them.


    “It’s fine…”


    Wynn wanted to say it was fine. After all, she was Philip’s ex-fiancée. However, she was reluctant to


    say it out loud. Why should she hand her husband to someone else on a silver tter? She changed


    her tone and said coldly, “Miss Sommerset, I’m not taking this. And also, please behave yourself!


    Philip’s my husband.”


    “Miss Johnston, didn’t I tell you that Philip and I are just normal friends. Why? Are you not confident in


    yourself?”


    Chloe crossed her arms as her face fell. She nced at Wynn coldly.


    She naturally had hostile feelings toward Wynn. When she saw that Wynn was being rude to her, she


    decided to stop being kind as well.
