The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 252

“Are you relieved now?” Philip hugged Wynn’s shoulders and asked. Wynn nodded and wiped her tears. She had waited for this

day for such a long time. At the same time, in the Old Johnston Manor, Martha was hysterically kicking up a big fuss. The Yates

were bankrupt, and Martha had lost the support of her maiden family. What would happen to her status in this family in the

future? How would she face her neighbors whenever she went out in the future? Especially when this matter was splattered all

over the news. Early this morning, she received a few text messages from her friends. Their words were all full of gloating and

sarcasm. “These mean b*tches, they must have been waiting for this day! Sending phony messages to comfort me…

They’re just shedding crocodile tears!” Martha almost went crazy with rage.

She tried to phone Bob, Peter, and Samson, but the calls went unanswered.

After thinking about it, she sat on the sofa and called Paula. “Paula, what should we do? Our family has gone bankrupt. Will

anything happen to us?

Will we be asked to pay up instead?” Martha was extremely flustered. She had done some inquiring.

Since the Yates was now bankrupt, they had to pay more than one billion! The Yates family’s assets

were only worth one billion, so what would happen to the remaining debt? Paula also sounded very

nervous over the phone. “Martha, just wash your hands off this matter.

After all, our dad didn’t give us anything back then. In his heart, he only cares about Peter and

Samson, so I won’t take any responsibility for this matter. The compensation should come from the

Yates family. It has nothing to do with me. I advise you to quickly sever your ties with Peter and

Samson. I heard they’re still short of 200 million!” In the face of an adversary, one would choose to fly

the coop. This saying was vividly reflected in the two daughters of the Yates family. When Martha heard

that there was a shortage of 200 million, she quickly said, “Okay! I’ll block their numbers now!” After

she hung up, Martha could not wait to block the numbers of Peter, Samson, and everyone else in the

Yates family. After doing all this, she was still worried and discussed it with Charles. “Charles, let’s

move away. We can’t stay here anymore.” Charles had already been in a frenzy the entire day. His

father-in-law was bankrupt and the Yates were ruined. As the son-in-law, his future was bleak. “Move

away? Why?”

Charles was puzzled. Martha slapped him on his arm and exclaimed, “Are you stupid! My dad still owes

200 million! What if he asks us to sell the old manor and pay up on his behalf? I don’t care, I want to

move away! Let’s move tomorrow. Today, you and I will go and look for a suitable place to stay and sell

this old manor. I heard that the real estate prices in this area have increased recently. Our house is

quite valuable. We can sell it for seven or eight million. This way, I’ll combine that with the one million

that Philip gave me last time and ask your brother for a small loan. We can get a villa then!” Martha had

already planned everything out. Paula was staying in a villa, so why could she not? Charles’ face was

full of reluctance as he said,

“He’s your father, after all. If he wants to borrow money, can we really say no? Besides, why do we

need a villa? A 100 square meter is more than enough.” Martha was upset when she heard that. She

slapped and yelled at Charles, “You’re such a useless man, exactly the same as that worthless Philip!

He’s my dad. If I say no, then it’s a no. Hurry up and go out with me. We must buy a villa!” After saying

that, she added. “Oh yes, call Philip up. That wimp must have some personal savings left. At the

antique market last time, I… He broke a small bottle and paid 100,000 bucks for it. Don’t you think he’s

being stupid? It must be a scam.” Charles felt helpless. The cards were certainly stacked against him to

marry such a wife. If it were not for the status of the Yates family in the beginning, Charles would never

have married such a domineering woman! Seeing that Charles was motionless, Martha personally

called Philip instead. Very soon, Philip’s voice came from the phone. Martha said coldly, “Philip, if you

don’t want to divorce my daughter, then you have to take out all your hidden personal savings.

We plan to sell the old manor and buy a villa. We’re still short of one million. “By the way, you should

also sell off your current house. Since we’re getting a villa, I’ll leave a room for you.” As she was talking

to Philip, Martha raised her chin at Charles in a triumphant manner. Philip was still in the hospital

currently. He glanced at Wynn who was still busy and moved to one side. “Mom, you want to sell the

current house and move?” “Yes.

The Yates are bankrupt now. What if they want to borrow money from us?

We’ll move tomorrow. You and Wynn should move too.” Martha’s words were like a kind reminder.

Philip chuckled helplessly and said, “No need, Mom. I’ve already bought a house. If you have time, I’ll

bring you and Dad to look at it.” “You bought a house already?” Martha raised her voice in surprise

before she sneered. “Philip, are you confused? Can a worthless wimp like you afford to buy a house?”

Martha held contempt in her heart.

She knew exactly how capable this son-in-law of hers was. Even if he had some personal savings, it

would be no more than tens of thousands. How could he ever afford to buy a house? Even the place

that they were currently staying in was contributed in part by her. If they sold that house, then they

would have just enough funds. Philip pursed his lips. “Mom, I really bought it. It’s at Longford…”

Longford Park! First Palace worth 100 million! “The hell with it! Are you trying to say Longford Park? Do

you even have any idea what kind of place that is? A house there is worth tens of millions! Get back at

once, and remember to bring all your personal savings with you.

Otherwise, you can sell your house and make up the shortage!” Martha was very angry and slammed the phone. Philip was

getting more and more audacious. He had even learned how to brag! Longford Park? What a joke!

Martha did not take it seriously. Philip hung up the phone and touched the back of his head. The clicks of high heels sounded

behind him when Wynn approached. She asked, “What does Mom want?” “She wants to sell the old manor and buy a villa. She

also wants me to make up for the shortage,”

Philip said with a smile. Wynn frowned and said dubiously, “Buy a villa?

What is she thinking? Where are we going to get so much money from?”

“It’s okay, Wynnie. Actually, I’ve already bought…” Philip said with a smile.
