Chapter 685
Philip did not have time to think about it and hailed a cab to hurry back to the villa. She was Wynn’s mother, after all. If anything
really happened to her, it would be difficult for him to explain. The cab headed directly toward First Palace. Before he even
entered the door, he could already hear Martha’s wails. “Ah, I can’t live like this anymore. I don’t want to live anymore!” Martha
was in the hall right now, clamoring to hang herself.
Even she did not know what her own objective was. Charles tried to persuade her on the side to no
avail. When Martha Yates went crazy, she was the shrew among shrews. “What are you doing? Why
are you suddenly trying to kill yourself?” Charles looked at Martha while keeping an eye on the door,
feeling relieved when Philip finally returned. “Philip, please persuade your mother. She’s trying to kill
herself and I can’t do anything about it,” Charles quickly called out to Philip. Philip put his hands into his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpants pocket. He could tell at one glance. Were these two people performing a skit? Hehe. Philip stood
at the door and looked indifferently at the crying Martha. The latter wailed about hanging herself but
kept stealing glances at Philip. Seeing that Philip did not try to stop her, she immediately wailed and
sobbed. “Charles, I’ve let you down. I’ve let Wynnie down. I’ll kill myself now. Everything will be fine
once I’m dead. You don’t like me anyway.”
With that said, Martha hardened her resolve. There was already a white cloth hanging in the hall. She
climbed onto the chair, yanked her head up, and was about to hang herself. Charles turned pale in
fright when he noticed that. Was this not an act? Why was she really doing it? “Oh no, Philip, quickly
say something. Do you really want to watch your mother hang herself in the house?” Charles was
anxious, worried that something might happen to his wife. Martha also pricked her ears up, holding the
white cloth in her hand. She was crying while looking at Philip. “Ah, I don’t want to live anymore. Just
let me die,” Martha said, still wailing. At this time, Philip chuckled. Looking at the time, he said, “Go on,
I won’t try to stop you. I’ll give you ten minutes. Once you’re done, I’ll get someone to drag your body
away.” Both Martha and Charles were stunned at his words. Very well.
Martha was now caught between a rock and a hard place. Was she going to hang herself or not? Bam!
She walked straight down, kicked the chair over, and ran into the bedroom in a huff. She did not come
out after that. It was so embarrassing. Charles flushed red while staring at Philip. He then said
helplessly, “Philip, don’t blame your mother. She knows her mistake. Just give her a chance. She’s
been reflecting these days.” Hehe. Philip sneered and said, “If she’s really repentant, it’s not impossible
for me to forgive her.
However, Charles Johnston, tell your wife, if I ever find out that she’s up to her tricks again, I’ll come after her with all her
wrongdoings. At that time, I’ll directly send her to prison!” After that, Philip went upstairs and looked at Mila before taking his
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthings. He was going to head out to the hospital to take care of Wynn. Martha hid in the bedroom, listening to the movement
outside with her ears plastered to the door. “What’s this brat up to?” Martha muttered, feeling upset. However, she dared not do
anything else. After all, she had really humiliated herself at the hospital the other day. Two days later in the evening.
Unexpectedly, Philip received a call from Chloe Sommerset. The other end of the phone was very noisy, and Chloe seemed to be
drunk. With a pot of chicken soup in his hand, Philip thought for a moment and sent the chicken soup to the hospital first before
giving Wynn an excuse to leave. When he arrived at the bar, he saw a familiar figure wrangling with a group of men that looked
like ruffians. “Chloe Sommerset?” Philip was startled. That person was Chloe, and she looked drunk. She was surrounded by a
group of gangsters who were touching her all over. Chloe was obviously drunk and a little dizzy. She could not even stand still as
she grumbled and shouted, “Get lost! You scoundrels, do you know who I am?” “Hey, what a fiery chick! So, beauty, who are
you?” One man took the lead, approached Chloe, and touched her drunken red face. He was immediately slapped away by
Chloe! “I’m the third young miss of the Sommerset family! Get lost! If you don’t, I’ll… I’ll call the police to come and catch you!”
Chloe tried to get away, but the men refused to let her leave!
She shoved away one greasy-faced guy who had placed his dirty hands around her waist and reprimanded, “If you don’t leave
now, I’ll call the police!” Chloe shouted and almost fell amid the commotion.
