Chapter 299
Philip looked at the phone display with a frown and connected the call. On the other end of the line, the sounds of crying and
angry shouts came through. “Philip, come and save me. I… I got into an accident with your car, and the other party wants me to
pay 20 million…” “Accident? What kind of damages cost 20 million?” Philip got a shock. Lynn was just too unreliable, getting into
an accident just like that. That was a Ferrari! She got into an accident and the other party was demanding 20 million in
compensation?
Was it possible that the other party drove a luxury car too? Was this the day for luxury bumper cars? Lynn could not explain
clearly over the phone. She was just crying and shouting. “Philip, come here quickly! There are so many of them. If I don’t pay
up, they said they’ll take me away and go to my house to look for my parents!” Philip caved in and hurriedly said, “Wait for me, I’ll
be there soon.” Philip hung up the phone, got into Tiger’s car, and rushed to the scene of Lynn’s accident. On the other hand,
Barb had gotten in touch with the owner of the villa and received a reply. She could visit, but she was not allowed to touch
anything inside. “Madam Sears, you’re great. Just a call and you can solve it easily.” Paula flattered her immediately. Barb waved
her hands arrogantly and said, “It’s just a small matter. The owner has to give us some leeway for the sake of my sister’s family
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttoo. It’s the Longford family after all. In Riverdale, who doesn’t respect them?” Barb was exhilarated and felt as if she was walking
on cloud nine. Initially, she wondered if the other party would refuse, but she did not expect them to agree so readily. All of a
sudden, her status was lifted in front of the Yates sisters. Martha also fawned over her. “Madam Sears is simply too capable.
I hope to get your help in the future as well.” Barb’s sister was so fortunate to marry Stephan Longford.
She had really risen to the occasion and hit the jackpot. Barb Sears had also risen with the tide with a
total reversal to her status. In the past, Barb Sears was just an ordinary girl from the village, poor and
penniless. That was what Paula told Martha. Now, her clothes and handbag were all branded goods.
Martha was envious, very envious. When she was still with the Yates, it was not like this. It was only
when she married Charles Johnston and after her daughter Wynn married that good-for-nothing Philip
that her status underwent tremendous changes and plummeted. That had also made Martha
unreasonable and money-minded over the years. It was simply the vanity and arrogance hidden deep
within her subconsciousness. “By the way, who is the owner of this villa?” Martha suddenly asked. She
really wanted to find out. Barb glanced at Martha contemptuously. She was an ordinary woman indeed.
It was really disgusting to look at her simpering face. She said, “Do you know who the richest person in
Riverdale is?” Paula quickly jumped in. “I know. The chairman of Apex Group, George Thomas.” Barb
nodded and continued,
“That’s right. This villa belongs to him. I didn’t expect this old man to be so easy to talk to. Let’s go in
and have a look. We only have one hour.”
With that said, Barb led Paula and Martha into the place, and like Alice walking around and exploring
Wonderland, they looked here and there with utmost curiosity. It was like they had embarked on a trip.
This villa was simply too grand. At the same time, at the corner of Saville Street, a crowd had gathered.
It was difficult not to attract attention when a collision between two luxury cars happened. Lynn stood
next to the red Ferrari with her arms crossed over her chest. She yelled arrogantly at the few young
people across from her, “Why should I pay? How much is your broken car worth? Open your eyes and
look at this clearly, it’s a Ferrari! You are the ones who should pay up. You don’t have to pay much, just
one million will do.” At this moment, Lynn was totally unlike the crying and wailing person on the phone,
but exactly like Martha when she was younger—fiery and arrogant. Lynn was not stupid. The other car
looked quite nice as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCould it be a luxury car too? Despite that, even if it was, how could it be compared to a Ferrari? In
Lynn’s knowledge, a Ferrari was the top sports car! The other four or five young men were led by a
clean-cut handsome man in a white shirt and floral-patterned pants. His hair was styled in a center-
parting, and he looked like an offspring from a wealthy family. He sat on the hood of his car with an
expression of disdain. He glanced at the Ferrari and said, “Beauty, is this car yours?” Lynn immediately
spat like an angry kitten with her chin yanked up. With a flushed face, she said, “Why is it not mine? If
the car I’m driving is not mine, could it be yours then?”
The few young men across the road laughed at her words. Lynn immediately flustered. After looking around, she cursed angrily,
“What are you laughing at? Can you afford to drive this car? And you, pay up quickly!” However, the handsome guy in the white
shirt chuckled and said, “Beauty, please take a good look at my car. This is a Ferrari Enzo. You don’t even recognize my car and
you are still so shameless to say that the car belongs to you?” Lynn was taken aback, her mind full of suspicions. She had only
heard of Ferrari.
What the heck was a Ferrari Enzo? “F*ck! You’re driving a fake Ferrari and still dare to demand 20 million from me! Are you
kidding me?” Lynn retorted immediately. It must be a fake! What Ferrari Enzo… There was no such thing!
