Chapter 1700

Very soon, Philip came up from downstairs. Seeing a roomful of people, he smiled and asked, “What

are you talking about?”

Wynn glanced at Martha and found her winking at her repeatedly. Wynn said, “Philip, my parents want

to go back Why don’t you arrange for someone to send them back? Didn’t you say that things in

Riverdale are almost settled?”

Hearing this, Philip looked at Martha, who was smiling at him while sitting in her wheelchair. She said,

“Yes, Philip. Your father and I have nothing to do here. You might as well send us back If you’re

worried, just get some people to protect us.”

Philip frowned, thought about it, and said, “Not yet. Martin and Bernard are like trapped beasts now.

They’ll do anything. Moreover, Bernard and Liam are in Uppercreek now. I’m not sure what they’re up

to yet. Staying in the hotel is the safest for all of you.”

Hearing this, Martha was obviously unhappy and yelled, “Philip, what do you mean by that? You don’t

want us to go back, do you? Are you putting me and your dad under house arrest? What is this about

Bernard and Liam? I think you’re just making things up!”

Martha was very angry. Philip must be up to no good by not letting them return to Riverdale.

Could it be that he wanted to take Beacon’s assets for himself?

Thinking of this, Martha got anxious and quickly shouted, “I see, you want to monopolize Beacon’s

assets, right? Is it more convenient for you to do things if you prevent us from returning to Riverdale?

Or do you have a lover in Riverdale? Do you plan to keep our family of three under house arrest in this

sh*tty hotel forever?”

Hearing this, Wynn looked helpless and said, “Mom, don’t be unreasonable. Philip is not that kind of

person!”

“What do you mean he’s not? I’m sure he is! From the first day this brat entered our house, I already

knew he’s not a good person! After wasting his life away for three to four years, he suddenly became a

different person. Maybe he’s doing something illegal behind the scenes and framing the Johnston

family for it!”

Martha raised her eyebrows, looking as though she had seen through everything. Her eyes were full of

disdain.

She was right!

It must be true!

Philip must be hiding something from them!

It turned out that this bastard was playing such a big game!

Hearing this, Philip frowned and stared at Martha coldly.

On the other side, Charles noticed that the situation was amiss and hurried over while interrupting,

“Philip, don’t get your mother wrong. She just wants to go back. She’s tired of staying in the hotel and is

in a bad mood. It must be due to her menopause. Please bear with it.”

‘Menopause?’

“Charles Johnston, what bullsh*t are you spewing? What menopause? That’s not true!” Martha was

furious as she turned to Charles and cursed.

Philip was also helpless and said flatly, “Mom, Dad, if you really want to go back, I can make

arrangements. But if something happens and I can’t take care of the problem for you in time, you have

to bear the consequences.”

At those words, Martha abruptly fell quiet. She was a little flustered. Looking at Philip’s expression, he

did not seem to be acting.

Would Martin really dare to do anything to her?

She was his sister-in-law!

“What can happen? I think you just don’ t want us to go back,” Martha muttered under her breath.

Philip suddenly turned his head, stared at Martha coldly, and asked sternly, “Are you sure you want to

go back?”
