“Sister Gina, what’s going on here? How can Philip buy such a villa? It’s 200 million!”
Amelia pulled Gina to one side, her face full of jealousy and defiance.
She was very upset. They were all part of the Johnston family. Why could Martha’s family afford to buy
such a villa?
Gina was also very sullen. They had already planned to come here and mock that good-for-nothing
Philip. Everyone was confused by the unfolding of events now.
“I don’t know either. Hasn’t her son-in-law been very useless all this time? Where did he get so much
money?”
Gina said with a face full of doubts. She looked at Philip who stood at one side with Wynn and felt very
uneasy.
“Didn’t you see how the security guards treated Philip with such respect just now? This guy is not a
hidden rich second generation, is he?”
Martin interrupted at this moment, and Bernard also nodded suspiciously.
Gina nodded but did not take it seriously. If Philip was really a hidden rich second generation, why
would he endure quietly in the Johnston family for the past three years?
Everyone knew exactly how Martha treated him all this time.
Paula joined their discussion at this moment. Even though she had visited First Palace before, she still
felt overwhelmed.
She sneered casually. “It’s fake. It must be fake. The last time I visited, they told me the owner of this
villa is not Philip Clarke, but the richest man in Riverdale, George Thomas! Philip must have spent
money to rent it for a day!”
When Gina and the others heard this, they immediately understood. The contempt on their faces
became more obvious.
“I was wondering how a piece of trash like Philip could afford a villa. I think Sister-in-law Martha must
be stupid to believe this.” Gina huffed angrily with a cold sneer.
Martha acted as if she was in her own home kept showing them around like she was more familiar with
the surroundings than the servants.
“Sister-in-law Martha, this place is really bought by Philip? It’s too grand!”
“Yes, this villa is really good. It’s a high-end luxury home. It must be the only one in Riverdale. Why is
Philip so rich? How come you’ve never told us this before?”
“Sister-in-law Martha, you’re in the wrong then. We’re all family. This is such a good villa with so many
vacant rooms, but you didn’t invite us to stay here?”
This group of relatives kept praising Martha to raise her up to the skies just to prepare her for the fall
later.
Paula felt the most defeated among them. She always liked to show off in front of her third sister and
step on Philip to feel superior, but now, she could only hold back.
Once she recalled that the true owner of the villa was George Thomas, however, she could hardly wait
to expose this fact to everyone and humiliate Martha’s family.
Martha was feeling so proud right now. Having her status elevated in front of so many relatives had
uplifted her dignity.
She had forgotten everything she said to Philip this morning about kneeling and kowtowing to him.
There had never been a mother-in-law who would apologize to the son-in-law.
“Stay, of course, you can stay here. Come and stay here when you have the chance. The more the
merrier.”
Martha sat on the sofa as if she was the lady of the house and said, “Don’t worry, you can choose any
room on the first floor here. I can call the shots.”
The people sitting on the sofa exchanged glances with each other, their eyes full of disdain.
This Martha Yates really regarded herself as the master of the house.
“Sister-in-law Martha, did your family really buy this villa?”
Gina asked. Since Paula had already said so earlier, she must expose this lie now so that she could
witness this family’s embarrassment.
Obviously, Martha could hear the meaning behind her words, so she immediately rebuked, “Sister-in-
law, you’re already sitting here and still asking this question? If my family didn’t buy this villa, could it be
that your family bought it instead?”
“Sister-in-law Martha, do you think we don’t know what your family’s situation is? Your son-in-law is
nothing but a wastrel. How can he afford 200 million to buy this villa?” Martin said grimly.
“What’s the meaning of this? Are you looking down on people?”
Martha was a bit nervous. Actually, she was very uncertain too. After all, her family really could not
afford a villa like this.
Philip most definitely could not afford it either!
“Sister-in-law Martha, you shouldn’t say that. I’ve heard that the owner of this villa is George Thomas,
the richest man in our city.”
Gina crossed her legs and sneered with a mocking face, “If this is really bought by Philip, why is it not
owned by Philip Clarke? Did he rent this place to lie to us?”
Philip heard it too and was just about to step forward to explain when he was stopped by Martha’s
glare.
She asked angrily, “Philp, tell the truth, are you renting this villa?”
Martha also recalled what happened the last time when she visited this villa. Madam Sears did confirm
over the phone that the owner was George Thomas.
Did this useless fool really rent this place to deceive them?
She was ecstatic for no reason, then.
“Why don’t you call the property management and find out who the villa belongs to now?”
Philip said calmly, took out his phone, dialed the number, and passed the phone to Martha.
Martha did not hesitate. She took the phone and asked in front of everyone, “Hello, I want to know
who’s the current owner of First Palace?”
The person on the other line said politely, “Hello, Madam, the current owner of First Palace is…”
