The first heir novel (Master Yu Who Smokes) novel Chapter 261

“There should be a billion bucks in that card,” Philip said mildly, raising his brow as he wore a confident smile.

Wynn paused and stared at Phillip suspiciously, her heart pounding in her chest.

After that, though, she rolled her eyes at him again and pinched his waist, berating him, “You’re pulling my leg again, aren’t you? If you really have a billion, I’ll have to serve you for the rest of my life.”

Philip grinned at that and put his arm around Wynn’s slender neck. “You said it, not me. Come on, let’s make that an official contract.”

Wynn batted his arm away and scolded him with a laugh, “Alright, alright. So you insist you have a billion? Sheesh, you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to. But you’re not handwaving this off today. I demand an explanation once we get back.”

Wynn raised her brows and rolled her eyes at him.

She did not believe that he really was a billionaire. To her, it was just Philip’s idea of a joke.

Even if he did tell her that his family ran Northern Sky West Restaurant, he probably was not wealthy to that extent.

Besides, he ran away from home, right? There was no way he would have that much money.

That was why Wynn did not take his words to heart. Nevertheless, she happily put the card away.

The card was Philip’s contribution to the family. She had to take good care of it.

Philip shrugged. He told the truth sometimes, so why did no one believe him?

A few days passed without event. Over those days, Philip constantly stayed by Mila’s side in the hospital.

Wynn was busy with work at the company, doubly so now that they had the deal with the Turner’s Hospital branch to handle.

As for Martha, she had been surprisingly quiet for those few days. Sometimes she would just randomly call Philip and try to convince him to visit the Johnstons.

Of course Philip knew what Martha was up to. She had probably been baited by the little amount of money he had shown her that day at the sales office.

That woman truly only had eyes for money.

Martha had spent the past few days at home, looking through all the manors and villas on sale in Riverdale. She had the money now, so they were already putting the old house on the market. She could get more than seven million for it, and then she had Philip’s four million and Manson’s two million.

Martha could buy a villa now, so naturally she was over the moon.

In fact, she would have plenty of change to spare too.

Once she started having more money, however, Martha naturally began to have other ideas.

“Hey, Charles, I bet Philip is hiding plenty more money from us. Think about how he so casually dropped three million that day, and he hasn’t even asked me for the money back until now. Don’t you think that’s weird?”

Martha was self-aware enough to know that if Philip really wanted the three million back, she would not be able to hide it from him.

However, she had waited for a few days and Philip had not sought her out at all. As a result, she grew bolder.

Charles sat on the couch, reading a newspaper. He said, “I mean, considering your temper, of course he wouldn’t dare to ask you for the money back. I don’t mean to insult you or anything, but the money is still Philip’s, so you should return it to him. If you don’t want to give it back, then you’d better treat him better from now on. Don’t always throw tantrums at him. After all, he is your son-in-law.”

Charles shook his head helplessly. He knew what his wife was like.
