Martha was in an absolute panic now.
Philip seemed like he was being very serious.
He dared to demand money from her!
“Wynnie, Wynnie, just look at him. What the hell is Philip trying to do? Is he really going to take it that far?”
Martha pulled on Wynn as she wailed and sobbed.
This trick had been used repeatedly.
However…
Today, Martha had played the wrong cards.
With Mila in her arms, Wynn turned around, glared at Martha, and said coldly, “Mom, I’ve had enough of you. Don’t look for my help today. I won’t speak on your behalf anymore.”
With that said, Wynn took Mila and sat in the corner, watching the scene.
Right now, Martha was truly abandoned by her family. She sat on the ground and started kicking up a big fuss.
“Philip Clarke, I’m your mother-in-law, after all. Are you really going to kick me out? Are you still human?
“You’ve been in the Johnston family for so many years, eating our food and living in our house. Am I not kind enough to you? I just beat and yelled at you once or twice. You’re a man. Can’t you bear with it?”
Martha wailed and sobbed. That performance was truly worthy of an Oscar.
Philip simply snorted coldly, looking at Martha who was messing around on the ground. He said lightly, “Beat and yelled at me? Have you ever treated me as your son-in-law?
“Today, no matter what happens, I want you to move out!”
Martha panicked. She jumped up, pointed at Philip, and cursed, “Impossible! There’s an agreement between us. This villa belongs to me! You can’t kick me out!”
After that, Martha planted herself on the sofa and refused to budge.
However, Philip merely glanced at her coldly and said, “Don’t blame me for not warning you. You’ll suffer in a little while.”
Hearing this, Martha widened her eyes, crossed her arms in anger, and said, “I don’t believe anyone can drive me out of my own villa!”
As soon as she said that, a team of Longford Park’s security guards rushed into the door.
Of course, a few staff members from the property management office were following behind them.
“Mr. Clarke.”
As soon as they entered the door, they bowed their heads respectfully to Philip.
Philip nodded before saying to the staff, “Get her to sign the documents. If she refuses, you can also get her thumbprints.”
Ah!
Martha exploded completely. She jumped up abruptly, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “What do you mean? Are you forcing my signature?”
The villa was gone.
Wynn watched everything on the sidelines. Although she could not bear it, she did not say anything.
Her mother had brought it upon herself.
At this time, Charles just returned from his walk. Seeing so many people around and the wailing Martha on the ground, he knew something was amiss.
“What happened here?”
Charles hurried over. Martha fell into his arms as she pointed at Philip and cursed, “Charles, Philip is bullying me. He wants to drive me to my death. He snatched the villa away from me and wants to kick us out too.”
Charles frowned upon hearing this and turned to look at Philip.
Standing up, Charles lowered his posture and said, “Philip, can you just let this matter go? She’s your mother-in-law, after all. We’re a family and family comes first.”
Philip flicked a glance at Charles and said coldly, “Charles, I told you a long time ago to take your wife in hand. Whatever happened today is her own responsibility.”
Charles was also helpless. He glanced at Martha who was still kicking a fuss on the ground.
He hardened his resolve and said, “Are you sure you want to kick us out?”
Philip’s eyes were cold as he glanced at Martha who was sobbing over there. “I’ve kept the Old Johnston Manor for you. You can move back there.”
The final word.
