Chapter 469
The First Heir
Hudson smiled and did not say anything.
The two of them parted ways, and Wynn went back to the villa. Her brain was occupied by what
Hudson said just now.
âThe person I keep seeing? I know him?â
Philip flashed across Wynnâs mind. Could it be him?
A lot of things had happened lately. When Wynn tried to connect the dots, she felt like she did not
understand Philip at all.
Who was her husband? What was he hiding?
When she thought about that, she opened her bag and took out the bank card Philip gave her.
She decided to check the bank balance tomorrow.
One more thing.
Wynn rummaged through her drawers and found the gold card that was imprinted with the word
âWallisâ. It was given to her by Giada.
Giada had told her that as long as she took this card to any shop with the Wallisesâ name, she could
find Giada.
Wynn felt conflicted. It was not that she did not trust Philip, but too many things had been happening
recently. She needed to verify this.
Especially what Hudson had said tonight. She started to be suspicious of her own husbandâs identity.
It seemed that her husband was hiding a lot of things from her.
Plus, Giada was Philipâs stepmother.
It was obvious that a woman like her was not just an ordinary restaurant owner.
âWynnie, youâre back.â
At this moment, Martha came in with a glass of warm milk. She was beaming.
âMom, can I help you?â
Wynn tidied up and asked.
âWhat are you doing?â
Martha looked at the bank card in Wynnâs hand. There was also a gold card as well. Martha felt
curious.
Wynn smiled and put them away. She said, âItâs nothing. Right, what do you need?â
Martha was not concerned about those things. She smiled and said, âWynnie, let me tell you some
great news.â
Looking at Marthaâs smiling face, Wynn smiled and asked, âMom, what happened? Why are you so
happy?â
Martha said, âThe villa is now under your fatherâs and my names now too. From now on, the three of us
will legally own this place. Philip canât order us around anymore. Plus, he wonât be able to boss me
around as well.â
When Martha thought about this, she was ecstatic.
She was finally the owner of a villa. From now on, she did not need to act according to Philipâs mood
anymore.
She had been pretending to be nice in front of him for the past few days. It was so difficult to be
obedient.
Especially when Philipâs cowardly image was already rooted in Marthaâs mind. When Philip told her he
was the one who bought this villa and that he was rich, Martha could not accept it.
âMom, what did you tell Philip?â
When Wynn heard that, she was mad. She muttered angrily.
She knew her mother was plotting this, but she did not expect that she would get her way.
âHey, what attitude is this? Am I wrong? I did this for the security of our family. Even if Philip is rich now,
heâs still the Johnston familyâs son-in-law and my son-in-law. So, he should listen to me. What is his
belongs to me, and it means that it belongs to our family too.â
Martha gritted her teeth, her eyes sparkling.
âYou werenât like this before. You wanted me to divorce Philip so badly, but now, heâs your son-in-law?
Mom, you changed so fast.â
Wynn chuckled. There was contempt in her tone.
Martha was mad. She smacked Wynn on the head and scolded. âSay, youâre my daughter. Why are
you always taking the side of an outsider? Even if I was horrible to Philip before, itâs because heâs just a
useless bum. Heâs so rich, so why is he pretending to be poor in front of us?â
Wynn did not want to pay attention to Martha anymore. She was so money-minded.
She refused to exercise restraint even when she knew Philip was rich now.
She was so stubborn.
âSigh, Wynnie, do you think Philip is guarding against us? He stayed in our home for three years like a
coward. Do you think itâs because he doesnât want us to use his money? If this is the case, I donât
agree with this at all.â
Martha shook her head and said, âSo, that kid is trying to play this with us, huh? Wynnie, you have to
side with me this time. Let me get my hands on all of his money. Thatâll be our compensation.
Compensation for what he owes us for three whole years.â
âMom, why are you so unreasonable?â
Wynnâs head was hurting. She was about to die from anger. âBack then, you looked down on Philip
because he didnât have money. You scolded him and hit him, but did he hold a grudge against you?
Now that Philip has money, youâre still looking down on him. Moreover, you still want to gang up with
me to scam him for his money? Mom, are you a dotard? What are you thinking?â
That was Wynnâs last straw.
What was wrong with her mother? How could she be so out of line?
Martha was infuriated. She glared at Wynn and scolded. âYou thankless wrench! Iâve raised you for
more than 20 years. Do you think Iâm doing this for myself? Iâm doing this for you and our family! Iâm
doing this so that you can have a better future!â
âStop! You know who youâre really doing this for. I wonât follow your bad examples. Philip is my
husband and I believe him.â
Wynn said firmly.
âYou believe him?â
Martha scoffed. There was sarcasm on her face. âWynnie, Iâm not criticizing you, but youâre so stupid.
All men will become evil after they have money. Plus, Philip has been hiding this from us for three
years. Do you even know what he has been doing in these three years? How can you be sure he
doesnât have mistresses outside? What if he already has children with them?â
Martha was enraged when she thought about what she saw this morning in the hospital.
Philip was not a good person.
All men were trash.
