The First Heir

Chapter 122

Martha was beyond furious!

‘This good-for-nothing thinks that he can afford it? Does he think that he has the money? At this point in time, this useless piece of trash is still holding on to his ego shamelessly.’

Martha glared at Philip impatiently and said with a mocking sneer, “Philip, what did you just say? You don’t want our family’s 500,000 dollars and can afford it yourself? Okay, okay, so you’re a big shot now? You think you’re too good for the Johnston family. Great, then you can divorce Wynn as soon as possible. My daughter is so beautiful, so she can easily marry into a wealthy family in the future!”

Philip had a sullen expression. He said helplessly, “Mom, I actually have…”

“What do you have? You want to say that you are loaded?” Martha sneered disdainfully, then pointed at him before saying to Mila arrogantly, “If it weren’t for you two, Wynn wouldn’t have to suffer so much. I wouldn’t be in a situation where I can’t hold my head up high in front of my side of the family. Stop bullshitting. The Johnston family no longer welcomes you. Leave now and bring this b*stard child with you.”

Since Wynn married Philip, Martha had never been the least bit kind to Philip.

It became worse when Philip failed to start his own business and accumulated debt. Philip was at her beck and call, but she always gave him an attitude.

Moreover, because Philip and Wynn had a shotgun marriage, Martha was bitterly humiliated by her family.

Her father’s attitude toward her plummeted as well.

For that reason, Martha began to hold a grudge against Philip since then.

Philip kept silent. He knew that his mother-in-law’s bias against him was not a matter of a few days.

Even if he told her now that he was rich and powerful, Martha would not believe him but would make fun of him instead.

Wynn could not take it anymore and said coldly: “Mom, can you stop making a fuss? We are all aware of your attitude toward Philip over the years. Has he ever complained about it? Why must you make me divorce him?”

Wynn was not someone who had no temper. She had to keep her mouth shut considering that Martha was her mom.

However, this was the last straw.

“Yes! You two must sign the divorce papers today. I have already arranged for you to go on blind dates in the next few days. I think that Juan Parker and Aiden Grant are worth considering,” Martha said angrily.

It was even on the news.

Wynn could not be bothered to quarrel with her mother anymore. She turned to Philip and said, “Philip, do you really have a way to treat Mila’s illness?”

Philip turned his head and said with a smile on his face, “Don’t worry, I have already got in touch with the hospital. Mila will be admitted this afternoon.”

Wynn nodded and felt really relieved.

“Hospital?” Martha saw that things were not going her way, so she quickly said to Wynn, “Wynn, don’t believe this useless bum! Between the two of you, how much money do you have to treat Mila’s illness?

“Wynn, I am not forcing you, it’s all for your own good. What future is there for you if you stay with him?” Martha changed her strategy and said earnestly.

However, Wynn saw through her and said, “Are you doing it for me or yourself?”

Wynn was very clear about her mother’s character and temperament.

Martha did it just because she wanted Wynn to marry someone rich so that she could hold her head high in front of her family.

She did not care about her daughter’s happiness. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

As soon as Martha heard that, she immediately acted like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She was furious and scolded, “Wynn, what do you mean by that? Do you think that I would put you in harm’s way?”

Martha was mad. ‘How is my daughter so stupid? She is favoring an outsider over me.’

Wynn could not be bothered with her anymore. She turned around and intended to walk away with Philip.

Martha did not want to let them leave. She immediately sat on the ground and slapped her thighs. She cryingly said, “God, you don’t want me to live. My son-in-law is a piece of trash, and my daughter is favoring an outsider over me. What do you want me to do? I should just be dead.”

Wynn felt a headache coming when Martha started throwing a tantrum, so she hurriedly ran to hold her mother.

Martha refused to get up. She pushed away Wynn’s hand and continued to hit her chest and legs. “If you don’t get divorced today, I will eat rat poison and drink herbicide.”

Wynn had a terrible headache now. She said, “Mom, please stop messing around.”

“Messing around?” Martha immediately got up and said in an agitated tone, “Can you really trust this useless bum? He has been with us for three years and how has he contributed to our family? What has he given you? When both of you got married, his parents didn’t even show up. Are they dead or do they despise us?”

Martha crossed a line with what she said. She said that her in-laws were dead.

How would Martha react if she knew that her in-laws were the richest family in the world?

Philip’s expression turned gloomy in an instant.

Wynn was also very angry and said, “Mom, how can you say such horrible things? For once, can you take other people’s feelings into account?! Regardless, Philip is your son-in-law. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?

“I’m telling you today in your face that I will not divorce Philip. If you want to sever our relationship, please feel free to do so!”

Whenever Wynn got pissed, she could be quite relentless.

Right now, Martha was exasperated. She raised her hand angrily and slapped Wynn!
