Chapter 555


    Philip exined. “Don’t worry about this matter, Wynnie. A friend of mine introduced Buffer to me. Don’t


    overthink. Just take good care of thepany.”


    Wynn wanted to say something but stopped herself. When she wanted to ask something else, the door


    of the room was opened.


    Martha stood at the door with a grin. She did not care about their expressions as she barged in. She


    smiled and asked, “I heard you two saying that you’ve solved thepany’s trouble?”


    “Mom, why are you always eavesdropping?”


    Wynn felt helpless. She lifted her eyebrow.


    Her mother did not have a limit at all. This was not the first time she eavesdropped.


    Martha rolled her eyes at Wynn and ignored her. Then, she turned around to look at Philip with a grin


    on her face. She said, “Philip, did you take care of it? You even have such an amazing friend. When


    can you invite them for dinner at our ce? After all, they’ve helped us so much.”


    Martha was being extremely amiable right now.


    Philip smiled and said, “Martha, what horrid ns are you plotting right now?”


    Martha frowned. How dare this guy call her by her name!


    Never mind, she would just endure this. After all, he solved the crisis in Wynn’spany.


    “No, I’m just being considerate. After all, you owe them such a huge favor.”


    Martha was saying so sincerely. Wynn and Philip could not argue with her.


    “Never mind, darling. Just agree with this. Next time, invite your friend over for dinner and we’ll thank


    him in person.”


    Wynn grabbed Philip’s hand and said.


    Philip was feeling helpless. He was that friend!


    “Alright, I’ll tell himter. However, I don’t know if he’lle. He might be overseas now.”


    Philip blurted out a random excuse. He would just lie to them for the time being.


    At the same time in Cirrus Manor.


    The brightly-lit hall.


    Giada was standing in front of the french window. She was holding a pure-bred white royal Persian. It


    had two different colored eyes and looked very obedient.


    Behind her, ke bowed slightly. His body was shaking.


    “Madam, what should we do now? Beacon got a new investor, but I don’t know who dares to ignore the


    Wallises’ sanction order!”


    ke was furious. He thought he could devour Riverdale. That way, the Michaels would be able to


    climb up the socialdder.


    However, his ns could not catch up with the changes.


    Now, only the madam could solve this.


    Giada’s face was cold. She turned around and the Persian in her arms meowed.


    “I got it. Don’t worry about this. Just do as I say.”


    Giada said calmly. Her tone was as cold as ice. One would shiver after hearing her voice.


    ke hesitated for a long while. Finally, he gathered his courage and asked, “Madam, I have a


    question that’s been troubling me for a long while. Who’s Wynn Johnston’s husband, Philip rke? I


    asked my people to investigate him and he’s just a normal good-for-nothing. However, I keep feeling


    that he’s not that simple. Plus, I think I saw him somewhere before.”


    Giada looked at ke frigidly and said, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Just focus on your own


    things.”


    ke shuddered after she said that.

    He could sense the threatening tone in that statement.


    Philip was not that simple after all!


    After she said that, Giada walked out of the hall. Behind her, Vivan peered at ke coldly. There was


    the aura of death in her eyes.


    At dawn the next day.


    Philip was ready to go pick up M and bring her home. At the same time, he would let Anne take care


    of M in the vi as well.


    When he went downstairs, he saw that Martha had prepared a sumptuous breakfast. She grinned and


    waved at Philip. She said, “Philip, I made you breakfast. Come eat.”


    Philip was a little shocked. He saw that Charles and Wynn were already at the table.


    The three of them looked at each other in puzzlement. They did not know what sort of tricks Martha


    was trying to pull again.


    “What are you looking at? Come eat.” Martha smiled.


    The three of them smiled helplessly. They thought Martha finally had a breakthrough.


    “Mom, look, how good is it that we’re peaceful and harmonious like this. Don’t give the cold shoulder to


    Philip from now on, okay?” Wynn said while drinking her milk.


    Martha nodded and said, “Right. My daughter is right.”


    After that, she turned around and looked at Philip. She said earnestly, “Philip, I was wrong before. I was


    being possessed by malicious thoughts, so I did a lot of horrible things to you. Please don’t take them


    to heart. I’m apologizing to you now.”


    After she said that, Martha pulled a chair away to kneel.


    Philip stopped Martha quickly and said, “Mom, what are you doing? It’ll be as if we’re strangers this


    way.”


    “Martha, Philip is not a petty person. He’s magnanimous, so he won’t bicker over this with you.”


    Charles said with a grin. His wife finally had a breakthrough.


    Everyone was joyous during breakfast. After they were done, Wynn and Philip drove out of the vi.


    One of them was going to take care of the investment in thepany while the other was going to pick


    M up from the hospital.


    Meanwhile, Charles went out to take a stroll with his bird and y chess.


    Martha was the only one left in the vi now. She waved goodbye at Wynn at the entrance with a smile


    on her face. After the Mercedes left her vision, the amiable smile on her face froze.


    Then, she ran inside the vi. She did not even clear the table. She ran upstairs into Wynn and Philip’s


    room. She rummaged through their drawers and found their bank card.


    She held it in her hand and contemted. Then, she went downstairs and grabbed her bag. She left


    Longford Park to call a cab to head to the bank.
