Chapter 166
Philip looked at the woman in front of him coldly. This is the woman he had been with seven years ago. He said, "Chloe, don't involve anyone else in our business. Don't make trouble for my family." The slap! Chloe got up and slapped Philip in the face. Then, he glared at her and said, "What happened between you and me won't end so easily.Don't forget how you left me without a word and how much you hurt me!" Chloe's heart was pounding when she saw Philip. After all, they had not met for seven years. He was even looking forward to this. However, Philip's eyes and expression just betrayed his true feelings. Chloe is a woman, so she knows how Philip feels. He only cares about that woman named Wynn. "Chloe, what happened seven years ago was my fault. It's okay if you want to punish me. However, you can't do anything to Wynn. This is my warning to you" Philip said. If Chloe really touches Wynn, Philip will fight without a second thought. "Warnings?" Chloe laughed coldly. The softness in the corner of his eyes became cold. He said, "Who are you to warn me? You are the reason I am like this today! How dare you go without a word seven years ago and let me suffer humiliation and shame alone! On what basis?" Chloe shouted and cried until her voice was hoarse.
Tears flowed from the corner of her eye. They signified despair in his heart. "Do you know how I lived those seven years?
Chloe Sommerset has become a big joke in the Capital City! Sommersets has become a joke! "And all this was caused by you, Philip!
"You destroyed me. I just want to get back what I deserve and you're so nervous? "Wynn's? Let me tell you, Philip. As long as I am here, your life will be like hell! I will definitely destroy you both. I will!" Chloe said a lot in one breath. He looked terrifying as he spoke with gritted teeth. Philip took a deep breath and looked at Chloe. He felt sorry.
She did not know how many wounds she had inflicted on her after fleeing the marriage. He changed. He felt foreign to Philip and Philip felt fear.
"I'm sorry. I can apologize to you. If you want something, you can come to me. I will try my best to fulfill your wish, but Wynn and Mila are my limit. I'm not gonna let them do it. hurt in any way, do you understand?"
philip's word. Her hot eyes were staring at Chloe. "Fulfill my will?"
Chloe sneered and said, "Alright, then I want you to divorce Wynn and marry me. Can you do it?" Philip frowned, and he fell silent. Chloe laughed mockingly at herself for a long time. Tears rolled back her cheeks. "I know that. You never loved me. Then why were you engaged to me then? Why?" Philip doesn't know how to deal with the hysterical Chloe. He could only let her get angry at him and beat him up.
Suddenly, Chloe hugged Philip and said in tears, "Philip, I miss you. I miss you so much. Promise me you will divorce the woman***** that. I'll listen to whatever you say. I'm not gonna make trouble for you, and I won't even interfere even if you find another woman out there after we get married, okay?" This is Chloe's love. His love is so petty and hateful. He loved her so much that he strayed from the meaning of love. Philip pushed Chloe away.
He wanted to say something but he stopped. Finally, he said, "Chloe, I'm sorry." His apology covers everything he wants to say. Chloe's whole body's limp. The final tenderness in his heart was completely destroyed by Philip. He even threw it on the ground and trampled it.
Chloe wiped her tears and laughed coldly. He said, "I understand.
I'm just a walker who can be thrown in your heart." Philip pressed his lips
joint. He wanted to explain, but in the end, he chose silence. She doesn't want Chloe to get hurt because of her anymore. He also doesn't want Wynn to get hurt because of him. However, the damage has already occurred. He was afraid the more he explained, the more he would mess things up.
Perhaps, being straightforward was the best ending for the two of them.
Chloe's expression was cold. He looked into Philip's eyes and suddenly asked, "Philip, does your wife know who you are?" Chloe was completely devoured by anger. He only had one goal in his heart, and that was revenge. He wanted to return the humiliation he had felt for the past seven years to Philip. He wanted her to understand that he would never be able to make up for the pain she was suffering. Philip's pupils constricted as he frowned. He asked coldly, "What are you going to do?" Chloe pulled out her phone and crossed one hand in front of her chest. A cold smile appeared on his red lips. He said, "How do you think Wynn would react if I told him who you really are?" Philip's eyes dimmed. His whole body became cold. When she said that, Chloe dialed the number she found.
The call worked. "Hello, who is this?" That's Wynn's voice.
Chapter 167
When he heard Wynn's voice, Philip's face fell. She stared at Chloe intensely. Chloe looked at Philip with a fake smile and said, "Hello, Wynn.
I'm Chloe." There was silence on the other end of the phone. "Can I help you?" Wynn is a hot-tempered woman. It was obvious that he was angry from his cold tone. Chloe did not immediately reply She looked at Philip and said gently, "If Wynn knew who you are, how would she react?
Have you thought about it?" Philip clenched his fists, his eyes heating up.
His low voice sounded like the growl of a savage beast. She said, "Chloe Sommerset, you play with fire." Philip was nervous, but at the same time, he was furious. He doesn't like being threatened! "Philip, don't you understand me?
The more exciting the game, the more I like it." Chloe put her hand under her chin and looked at him provocatively.
call, "Wynn, what do you think Philip looks like?" What kind of man is Philip? Wynn. He answered without thinking,
"Miss Sommerset, I don't even know you. If you're here because of my husband, then we can talk directly. I'll try my best to meet any requirements you want. However, I must warn you not to do so. to separate Philip and I." This is a warning from Wynn. Of course, Chloe did not expect that she would answer like this. His expression froze as he fused his beautiful brows together. He looked arrogant and cold. Chloe said coldly, "Wynn, I don't think you know your husband very well. Have you seen his past? Do you know about her family background?" "What do you mean?" Wynn's confused. She doesn't understand what Chloe's talking about. He's correct. Wynn doesn't really understand Philip. Wynn had no idea what Philip was like before entering university. He had only heard the story from Philip himself. Plus, he had never met the friends Philip mentioned. She had only recently figured out what Philip's family was like and what kind of job her parents had. Did Philip really run away from home like he said?
Wynn's confused. His voice became less confident. "If you want to know about Philip's past, come to the Northern Sky Western Restaurant" Chloe said calmly. His eyes were fixed on Philip the entire time. There was silence on the other end of the phone. Then, Wynn replied, "Okay." After she hung up the phone, Chloe stood proudly in front of Philip. He seemed happy that he had managed to get away with his scheming plan. He said, "You don't look nervous at all." Philip frowned and asked, "What are you trying to do?" He's not taking action now. She's waiting for Chloe. If he were to expose her over the phone, then he would not hesitate to take action to stop this from happening. Chloe smirked and reached out a fair hand. He rubbed his hand against Philip's stern face. His eyes were filled with love and admiration.
He said, "Simple. Dinner with me tonight. It's been seven years we haven't had dinner together." Dinner with her? Philip was very angry.
"No way! You blackmailed me!" Chloe smiled and said, "As far as you are.
Besides, it's just dinner. Why are you so nervous? Wh why? Are you afraid of that?
your wife might see us together?" Chloe did not continue the conversation. He waited for Philip to answer. After a while, Philip replied, "Alright, I'm leaving, but I have to warn you. If you reveal anything about me to Wynn, I'll make you regret this." Philip turned around and left angrily after he said that. Chloe was standing in the office alone. He watched Philip leave. His heart began to throb in pain. ' Why? 'Why do you only care about women****** that?
'I can't even be compared to him?' When he returned to the hospital, Philip ran to Wynn in front of the hospital room. Wynn glanced at Philip coldly and the latter simply smiled at him before stepping aside. They looked at each other but said nothing. Wynn didn't tell Philip about the phone call. He wants to solve this himself. Philip did not ask either. They just kept quiet and started giving each other silent treatment.
Philip drove Wynn back in the night. Wynn looked exhausted. He said,
"I'll stay with my mom for a few days." "Why did you go there?"
Philip's worried. Wynn didn't say anything. He looked around and did not pay attention to Philip. Philip is helpless. It's not that he didn't want to tell her. He just doesn't know how to start a conversation.
Should he tell Wynn his true identity? Can he accept this? Is she ready to be the richest mistress in the world? "Wynn, believe. There's nothing between me and Chloe" Philip said suddenly. However, Wynn said nothing. His face was cold, and his eyes were closed. It was as if he did not want to notice her. When they reached Old Johnston Manor, the two got off the car simultaneously. Philip wanted to help Wynn with his bag but he refused. "Mom, I'll stay here for a few days." Wynn entered the house and changed his shoes. Then, he went straight into his room and slammed the door. Martha stood in the living room in confusion. He looked, and his face fell. He looked at Philip and asked, "Are you bullying him?" Wynn doesn't seem to be in his right mind. Plus, he even wanted to stay here for a few days. He must have had a fight with Philip. All right, very good! She was worried that she would not have the chance to get them to file for divorce, but now, here she was.
"Mom, I don't. Maybe Wynn's just exhausted." Philip explained. However, Martha did not believe him. He looked at her with the corner of his eyes and his face was as cold as stagnant water. He pointed at Philip's nose and started shouting, "Do you think I won't understand the daughter I gave birth to? Philip, don't tell me that I never warned you. A man like you is no match for my daughter at all. ! If you're smart, you should divorce Wynn as soon as possible. Stop blocking Wynn from marrying into a rich family!" Philip was helpless when faced with the arrogance and bossy nature of Martha.
Martha was not the only one who was upset. Philip was frustrated too. After being accused by Martha, Philip's tone of voice became a little chilling.
"All right, I get it. Can you stop nagging? It's between me and Wynn. We'll take care of this" replied Philip coldly. There was no warmth in his eyes. Martha was shocked by the ominous glint in her eyes. Marta angry. How dare he talk to her like this. Does he want to die? "Philip, how can you talk to me like this? So you don't even respect your mother-in-law anymore? All right, amazing. Philip Clarke, you really are something else. Get out of my house now! Exit !" Martha began to push Philip out of the house. The world has been turned upside down. A son-in-law yelled at his mother-in-law! Philip's upset. He swung his hand and pushed Martha to the side. Thump! "Ouch!" Martha fell backwards and landed on the floor on her ass. Then, he slapped his thigh and shouted loudly, "Charlie!
Come out and see this! Your dear daughter-in-law hit me! I can't stay in this family any longer." Philip was embarrassed. He went to help Matha stand up. He said, "Mom, I'm sorry. It was an accident." "What do you mean it was an accident? You did this on purpose!" Martha pointed at Philip unreasonably and began to hurl insults. The quarrel outside caught the attention of Charles who was in the study and Wynn who was in the bedroom. They were annoyed when they came out and saw that sight before them. Charles approached Philip and slapped him in the face. He screamed, he screamed,
"Are you crazy? How dare you hit your mother-in-law. I, Charles Johnston, have no son-in-law like you! Get out of here now!" Wynn runs in haste and helps Martha stand up. He glared at Philip with anger in his eyes.
"Get out of my house now! I don't want to see you!" Philip could not explain himself in front of the wrath of the three. He looked at Wynn for a long time before turning around to leave. When Wynn saw Philip turn around, he felt his heart throb. He wanted to run towards her and ask for an explanation, but Martha grabbed his arm. "Wynn, did my tailbone break? Take me to the hospital." How did Martha not detect that? Wynn simply asked Philip to leave in a state of anger. He could not let his daughter chase him now. The bigger this misunderstanding, the better. Wynn panic. One was his mother while the other was Philip. "Mom, don't worry.
I'm gonna send you to the hospital now." He has no choice. He had to choose his mother. After all, her mother was in so much pain that she could not even stand up straight. If anything happens, Philip can't stand the responsibility. When the three of them were ready to come out, they saw a handsome man in a suit outside the door. "Hello, is this Martha Yates' house?" The man grinned. "Yes, I'm Martha Yates." Martha holds Wynn to gain support. His face was wrinkled with pain. He is very good at pretending. "Hello, Auntie. Miss Sommerset has asked me to send this to you." The man smiled. Then, seven to eight men in suits started carrying things into the house. Everything is a high-end luxury. Gold necklaces, jade bracelets, black pearls, and even some calligraphy for Charles. There are also two money boxes. There are two million dollars in total! In addition, there are also Maserati car keys. Seeing the gift that was brought to her house, Martha was shocked. Wynn was also dumbfounded. "Pulse... Son, is this all for us?"
Martha's legs turned into noodles due to shock. He began to stammer with excitement. His eyes never left that gift. Especially those boxes that contain two million dollars. That's cold cash! "Yes, Aunt.
This is all from Miss Sommerset." The man smiled. Martha can't—
stand still. This is all for him! Wynn's face fell. He could guess who sent all this. "May I ask who Miss Sommerset is? Do I know him?" Martha is not a fool. He grabbed the man's hand and asked excitedly. The man replied, "Miss Sommerset is a friend of Mr Philip Clarke."
Chapter 169
Philip Clarke's? Marta frowned. He looks upset. Every time he heard Philip's name, he would feel as if his entire body was covered in thorns.
However, he hid that feeling in the blink of an eye. Miss Sommerset is the one who sent all these gifts. There are precious jewelry, cars, and also cash. It's obvious that Miss Sommerset comes from a wealthy family.
"Um, Philip are we friends with Miss Sommerset?" Marta smiles. The man replied politely, "I don't know the details. I'm just here to deliver the presents."
After he said that, the man left with his men. He came as fast as he left. Martha finally regained consciousness. He's rich! "Charlie, Wynn, we're gonna be rich! This... These things are precious!
We also have two million dollars!" Martha was so overjoyed that her butt didn't hurt anymore. He stared at the gift and the two money boxes.
He wanted to fall asleep while hugging them. Charles was happy, of course. Especially when you look at the calligraphy. He knows they are precious. They have good quality. That's an amazing thing! Both have fallen into enemy hands. "Wynn, who's Miss Sommerset? Does he know Philip?" Martha is not a fool.
Miss Sommerset just gave them these things because of Philip. Philip was worthless trash, so how did he get so many rich friends? The boy was hiding a lot of things from them! Wynn's face fell. He said angrily with a cold expression on his face, "Mom, Father, return these things immediately.
We can't take it." Wynn doesn't understand what Chloe wants to say by doing this, but she knows that she's showing her power with money. Chloe Sommerset wants to steal Philip from her! It's impossible to get in
hell out! Philip is her husband and she is Mila's father. Wynn will not admit defeat! When Martha heard that Wynn wanted to return all these gifts, she started to make a fuss. He screamed, "No! Nah! You can't! Miss Sommerset gave me this. It's mine! It's mine, Martha Yates! Who are you to send this back?" Martha's currency will only be open to money. This is the arrogant Martha Yates. So what if Wynn is his daughter? Is he better than money? Martha would not return this gift even if she had to cut ties with her daughter. There are so many gold necklaces. Also, he's got two million dollars and a Maserati. Martha had never had these things before. How could he just give it back? "Mom, do you know why he gave you this?" Wynn stomped his feet in anger. Tears formed in his eyes. She is unfortunate to have a money-minded mother. "I don't care. Wynn Johnston, I'm warning you. Miss Sommerset gave me these things, so they belong to me now. You have no right to force me to give it back!" Martha kept the gift while glaring at Wynn. "Charlie, say something. Tell me, should I return this stuff or not?" Martha tried to gain more momentum with Charles.
Charles conflicted. To be honest, he liked those two calligraphy. One of them was Wang Xizhi! Holy hooch! If word got out, his rank in the collector circle would go up! However, he knew that his daughter was angry. "Martha, why don't we give this back? As the saying goes, 'don't get a reward if it's inappropriate'. Even if it's for us, we can't take it!"
Charles still cares about his daughter. Marta exploded. He sat on the ground and wailed while patting his thighs, "Charles Johnston, oh Charles Johnston! You're bluffing me because I don't have the same last name as the two of you, right? getting married to you for years? I was blind when I married you, and I even gave birth to a heartless child! I'm so mad! I can't live like this anymore! I don't want to live anymore! "I'll tell you now, I won't return these things! If you dare to return this, I will drink the insecticide and die!" When Martha started making a fuss, no one could handle her.
Chapter 170
Wynn was crying in frustration. He stomped his feet and returned to his bedroom. Then, he slammed the door. Martha was stunned, but she shook her head while feeling pleased with herself. Then, he looked at Charles as if he was showing off. He stood with a demonic grin on his face. He happily brought everything back to his room. Afterwards, Martha remembered there was something strange about Philip. Miss Sommerset gave them so many expensive gifts for no reason. Plus, judging by Wynn's reaction, they must have been hiding something from him. "Charlie, what do you think is wrong with Philip? Why did Miss Sommerset send so many expensive items to us?" ask Marta. He was constantly thinking about Miss Sommerset. Why would an ordinary friend send them so many expensive items? It seems that Philip and Miss Sommerset's relationship is not that common. Charles is studying his calligraphy. He replied, "You should ask Wynn. He probably knows." Martha pursed her lips and walked out of her room. Coincidentally, he saw Wynn walking out of his room. He exclaimed, "Wynn, where are you going? I have something to ask." Wynn ignored Martha. He pushed the door and walked away.
"That stupid girl is getting out of control. He must have been affected by that useless thing." Martha rolled her eyes furiously and muttered. He had to call Philip and ask him this. After Martha thought that, she dialed Philip's number, "Philip, is Miss Sommerset your friend?" Philip was in the hospital with Mila. When he heard that, he immediately frowned and asked, "Mom, did he go to your house?" "No, she
just ask someone to send some expensive stuff." Martha did not tell him what it was. He was afraid he would ask them back if he told him. Philip's silent. He forced a smile and explained, "Mom, since he gave it to you, you have to accept it. He was my best friend from my hometown. He came to Riverdale for a vacation." When Martha heard that, she was delighted. He said excitedly, "Oh, Philip. You should have told me that you have a lot of rich friends. Just tell me what you want to eat next time. Don't be polite with me. Also, invite Miss Sommerset when she's free. I have to comfort him properly."
Martha's attitude suddenly changed. Philip was not surprised. He is just a person who will open his eyes to money and be easily swayed. After speaking for a while, Philip hung up the phone. Her expression was solemn as she called Chloe right away. He said in a low voice, "Chloe Sommerset, what does this mean?" Chloe was walking out of the parking lot when she got a call from Philip. There was a happy grin on his face. "It's okay. I only gave your mother-in-law a surprise because she underestimated you so much. How's things going? Is he licking you now? He also asked you to take me back for dinner, right?" Philip's eyes turned dark. He saw his daughter sleeping on the bed and walked out of the room. He said, "Chloe, I warned you. Don't interfere in my business! Where are you?" "Why? You can't wait to meet me, right? Aren't you afraid your wife will worry?" Chloe sashayed to the restaurant. "You should know how my temperament is. Where are you?"
Philip's voice turned ice-cold. "North Sky Western Restaurant" Chloe replied before hanging up. Philip's surprised! Fucking chloe! He was tricked by her. He thought he wouldn't meet Wynn if he agreed to her request. He had no time to think. He ran out of the hospital and called a car to the Northern Sky Western Restaurant. He had to stop this meeting. At the same time. After Wynn got dressed, he arrived at the Northern Sky Western Restaurant. It is the most luxurious and expensive restaurant serving western cuisine in Riverdale. There are only 17 branches in
the country. Wynn looks pretty tonight. When he arrived at the restaurant, he caught the attention of everyone. "Hello, I have a reservation for Miss Sommerset," Wynn smiled and said to the hostess, "Alright, please follow me." The hostess took Wynn upstairs to the revolving restaurant. It was a semi-open space. He could see the night view of Riverdale while underneath them was a swimming pool. One would feel refreshed seeing the blue water in the pool. Chloe has booked this whole floor. Wynn sees Chloe sitting there sipping her coffee. There was a time when Wynn thought that Chloe was a good match for Philip. He doesn't know why.
Maybe because Chloe has the same habits as Philip when drinking his coffee. He sits. The two looked at each other.
Wynn opened his mouth coldly and said, "Miss Sommerset, be honest."
Wynn nervous. His hands were still trembling as he placed them on his knees. It was because Chloe put so much pressure on her, especially by giving her parents those expensive gifts. He is under a lot of pressure. Chloe opened her red lips. He smiled warmly and said, "Miss Johnston, how much do you know about Philip?" Wynn immediately replied, "Philip is my husband, so of course I know him well."
Chloe smiled slightly and looked at Wynn. The last is a hedgehog covered with thorns. He can't wait to pledge sovereignty. "I'm Philip's fiancee" Chloe said suddenly. His eyes had no warmth. He then sipped his coffee.
