Chapter 97
Seeing Philip walk away, she turned her head, took Wynn’s hand, and earnestly said, “Oh Wynnie, haven’t I told you? Why do you still want to be with that trash? Are there no good men in this world? I think Aiden isn’t bad. He’s handsome and has a good family background. What counts is that he treats your father and me well.”
Wynn felt very helpless. She knew her mother was up to nothing good when she came over.
“Mom, please stop talking. I don’t feel like thinking about this now.”
Wynn helplessly said. She went up to her bed and lied down sideways. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Martha, however, continued talking. “If you don’t like Aiden, Juan is okay too. I see that he’s busy these days. This type of guy is extremely rare now.”
When Wynn did not reply to her, Martha got so mad that she groaned.
“This girl! How are you so stubborn? What’s good about Philip Clarke? He can’t earn money and has no social connections. His friends are poorer than the others. This type of man is a scum of society.
“I don’t care if you agree or not, you’re my daughter. I call the shots for you. You must divorce Philip!”
Martha had secretly made up her mind that for her daughter’s marriage and also for her future happiness, she must take matters into her own hands.
Wynn was tired of listening. She ignored her mother and covered herself with the blanket.
Martha whispered a few words, carried her bag in a swift manner, and left the hospital.
Philip was ready to return to the company after leaving the hospital.
Mila was still at the company being taken care of. Things had been really busy these days and he could not take care of her.
While riding the electric scooter, Philip’s phone rang. It turned out that Lynn was the one calling.
Why was she calling him?
The call connected and Lynn’s cold shout came from the other side, “Philip, come to Starlight Bar! Hurry over in ten minutes! If you dare to be late, I’ll tell on you in front of Wynn!”
Snap!
The call ended after she finished speaking.
Philip had not figured out what was happening. He could only sigh helplessly and ride his scooter to Starlight Bar in a rush.
Only when he arrived did he find out that there were seven or eight young people surrounding Lynn and her four friends in the bar lobby.
There were two men and three women.
Philip was very familiar with the two men—Kyle Lyon and Jacob Wells.
Kyle and Jacob both had injuries on their faces. Their cheeks were red and swollen, and they had bruises at the corner of their eyes.
As soon as Philip arrived, Lynn got up and scolded arrogantly, “Half an hour has passed! Didn’t I say to arrive in ten minutes?!”
“Sorry, traffic.” Philip smiled.
“Traffic with that broken scooter? You did it on purpose, didn’t you? I’ll go back and tell my cousin that you frequent brothels!” Lynn said mercilessly.
Kyle and Jacob also sneered.
“Lynn, why did you call this good-for-nothing? What can he do?”
“That’s right, what can this idiot do?”
Philip frowned slightly, turned around, and walked away without saying a word.
He did not come here to be bullied!
At this moment, Lynn got anxious and shouted loudly, “Philip, if you dare leave, I definitely won’t let you go! As long as I say a few words to Uncle and Aunt, can you still have a good life with the Johnstons?”
Sure enough, once these words were spoken, Philip stopped. He turned around and stared darkly at Lynn.
“What do you want? I don’t have the time to accompany you kids doing mischief,” Philip said coolly.
At this moment, all seven or eight people there sneered.
One of them had red hair and a slanted fringe. They were wearing a floral shirt with an open neckline that revealed a tattoo. They were smoking and looking at Philip with squinted eyes. “This uncle has a big mouth. I heard Lynn say that you’re her cousin’s husband. So she’s your sister-in-law?”
Philip frowned. This person was rakish. He guessed that Lynn and the others must have provoked them.
At most, it was about money.
“What’s the matter? Just let them go. I have other things to do,” said Philip.
“F*ck! Watch how you talk to our Dick Jayson!”
“You kids are crazy! You wanna play?!”
“F*ck your mom! Apologize to Dick Jayson!”
All of a sudden, the few young people behind Dick angrily pointed at Philip and swore fiercely.
Lynn was also scared to death, so she stood up, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “Philip Clarke, you’re crazy! Why’re you talking to Dick Jayson? Quickly apologize to him!”
This Philip Clarke was usually a coward. Why was he so unyielding now?
If Dick was offended, they could not leave this place!
However, Dick smiled and allowed his subordinates to press Lynn back as he said to Philip, “100,000 bucks! Your sister-in-law owes us 100,000 bucks. As long as you bring out the money, you can take them away.”
100,000 bucks?
Instantly, Philip looked at Lynn in surprise. The latter turned her head indifferently and with not an ounce of shame, she said, “Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and withdraw the money. I still have class in the afternoon.”
