Chapter 718
Amelia hit him playfully and teased, saying, “Silly you. You’re Charles’
brother. Do you think they can chase you away? If they really do, we’ll just kick up a big fuss and let the entire neighborhood
know. In the end, they’ll lose their dignity. So, how about it?” Bernard hesitated. However, when he glanced at the villa again, he
said with determination, “Okay, you talk to Martha and I’ll talk to my brother.” The two reached an agreement and rushed into the
living room. Coincidentally, Martha came out of the bedroom at this time all dressed up fashionably like a lady. She smiled as she
said, “Oh, it’s Amelia and Bernard. You’re here already? Come here and have a seat. Leave your things there. I’ll get the nanny
to handle it.”
Amelia knew that Martha was a very prideful person, so she quickly paid compliments, “Sister Martha,
you have a nanny too? I’m so envious.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMartha was very happy when she heard those words. She sat on the sofa in a little cloak and put on a
pretentious sitting pose as if she was really a wealthy lady. Amelia and Bernard also followed suit and
the three of them started chatting. On the side, Lynn was playing on her mobile phone, taking pictures
and posting them on social media. “By the way, Sister Martha, we met Philip at the door when he came
back in a Rolls-Royce. Is your family so rich now?” Amelia asked as she nibbled on chips. Rolls-
Royce? Martha sat up straight when she heard that. How did that piece of trash get a Rolls-Royce? Did
Juan not say he was bankrupt? “Oh, really?” Martha did not want to ruin Amelia’s flattery, so she just
smiled casually, but her whole face had changed. Of course, Amelia caught the change in Martha’s
expression. She pretended to exclaim in surprise, “Martha, didn’t you buy that car? I thought it belongs
to your family. After all, Wynn is now the chairwoman of the company.” Martha was just about to say
something when Amelia continued, “If you didn’t buy it, could it be that Philip used the company’s
money to buy it for himself? Oh dear, what’s he doing? Stealing money from the family?” These words
directly triggered Martha! Yes, the family of that useless Philip was bankrupt now. This was the time
when they needed money the most! This guy had his sights set on Wynn’s company? Martha
immediately flew into a rage and shouted, “Philip, get down now! I have something to ask you!” Amelia
exchanged a glance with Bernard as they stifled a laugh. Looking at Martha’s attitude, Philip was in for
a beating.
Who told Philip to act so pretentiously at the entrance earlier? Now that he was exposed, he deserved
it. Amelia was elated. She just could not bear looking at a useless bum like Philip living in a villa and
riding in a luxury car. Lynn was also filled with doubts when she heard this discussion at the side.
Initially, she thought that Philip had become stronger, but it turned out that he was still relying on his
woman. It even seemed that he was plotting against the family’s property. Suddenly, Lynn felt more

Philip walked down from the second floor, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and looked at the crowd in the living room. Then,
he asked dubiously, “Mom, what’s wrong?” “Don’t call me ‘Mom’!” Martha was very angry. She sat on the sofa, glanced at Philip,
and asked with a chastising tone, “Your Aunt Amelia said you came back in a Rolls-Royce just now?” Philip glanced at Amelia
who was nibbling on chips and frowned slightly. He did not refute and said, “Yes.” Smack! Martha stood up and slapped him. She
pointed at Philip’s nose and cursed, “Philip Clarke, did you steal money from the company to buy the car? Talk! How much
money did you steal from Wynnie’s company? If you don’t say anything today, I’ll call the cops to arrest you!” Philip was stunned.
He did not expect Martha to slap him so suddenly. Steal money from the company? Philip was livid!
“You think I bought that Rolls-Royce using money from Wynn’s company?” Philip’s eyes were grim. His gaze swept over Martha
and fell on Amelia. “Isn’t it? Otherwise, how could a wastrel like you afford to ride in a luxury car like that?” Amelia pursed her
lips, her face full of sarcasm and contempt. Philip did not explain but picked up his phone and dialed George’s number. He said,
“Come to the villa now!” He hung up after those words. He looked at these people solemnly and said sternly, “Get your things and
be prepared to get lost from this villa!”
