Chapter 307
The living room plunged into silence. Joel was the first to burst out laughing.
He shook his head helplessly. He was looking down on Wynn’s husband even more now. How hilarious! This good-for-nothing
had bought a company for ten million bucks? If that was the case, with Aunt Martha’s snobby attitude and feisty temper, she
would be treating him like he was her own son! Martha was taken aback. Her face fell immediately. She picked up a book on the
table and threw it at him. She pointed at the door and yelled,
“Get out! You shameful thing! You never do anything properly and only know how to lie! Aren’t you
ashamed of yourself? I feel ashamed for you even if you’re not.” Philip did not want to explain anymore.
His mother-in-law would never believe him. Martha pulled Joel out the door and insisted he took Philip
to the interview. With no choice, the four of them sat in Joel’s Porsche and drove to Hodgson
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPharmaceutical. “Joel, your car must be pretty expensive, right?” Martha got into the car and sat
happily on the passenger’s seat. She kept adjusting the seat while enjoying the comfort of a luxury car.
“It’s not expensive. It’s just a little over a million bucks. If you like this, I’ll give it to you. I have a
Koenigsegg and Lamborghini at my mansion.” Joel smiled and said. He was unintentionally revealing
his wealth. When Martha heard that, she was smiling like a flower in bloom.
Joel was so rich. He even had three luxury cars and a mansion! No! Martha could feel her breath
getting heavier. This amazing man must become her son-in-law! That piece of trash Philip could not
even begin to compare with Joel. “Joel, are you really giving me the car?” Martha was excited. Her
elder sister’s daughter, Samantha, drove a car that cost over one million as well.
She was so arrogant, even her bottom was sticking up to the sky. “Joel, don’t listen to my mother.”
Wynn reminded him from the back seat. Her mother was really something else. She was so thick-
skinned. Joel smiled and said, “It’s nothing. It’s just a little more than a million. I came out urgently
today.
If I knew, I would have driven the other car. That one is more comfortable.
Right, Philip, do you have a car?” Suddenly, Joel changed the topic and asked with a fake smile. The
inside of the car felt awkward immediately.
Martha wanted to kick Philip out of the car so badly. Philip smiled and said,
“I do, but I don’t drive it often.” “Oh? I didn’t think you’d be able to afford a car. Did you get a loan with Wynn for it?” Joel smiled
and said. His face was filled with sarcasm. Wynn and Martha stared at Philip. “You have a car? When? Why do I not know about
this?” Martha was the first to yell. It was as if she had heard a huge piece of news. The inside of the car got even more awkward
after she said that. Joel shook his head and said, “You don’t know, Aunt Martha? Is your car still at the car dealership?” He was
obviously lying. When Martha heard that, she understood immediately. She glared at Philip while feeling unhappy. Philip was so
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmused to lying. It was such a shame to be in the same car as him. Philip did not want to explain any further. Wynn pinched him on
the waist and asked quietly, “Did you really buy it?” Philip nodded and did not say anything. It was just a car. It did not bother him
that much. Only an entire mountain would be enough to be the parking lot for the number of luxury cars his family owned. Joel
chuckled lightly. He had maintained his dignity after showing off his wealth in front of Wynn’s husband. After a while, the car
stopped in front of Hodgson Pharmaceutical. This was an international building. It was the headquarters for Hodgson
Pharmaceutical. It was a listed company with more than 1,000 employees. It could be said that Hodgson Pharmaceutical was the
second-largest pharmaceutical company aside from Hutten Pharmaceutical Factory. Now, Hodgson Pharmaceutical was
flourishing because Hutten Pharmaceutical went bankrupt. When Philip and the rest of the group went into the building, a
beautiful woman with a glamorous body approached them. When she saw Philip, her face went pale. She did not even have time
to greet Joel and the gang. She just quickly ran to the chairman’s office. “Sir, he’s here! The person you told me to ask about is
downstairs!” The beautiful woman with the glamorous body was the personal assistant of the chairman of Hodgson
Pharmaceutical, Vernon Payne. Her name was Eliza Gomez. “Really?” Vernon was surprised and shocked. He stood up
immediately. Hutten Pharmaceutical’s crisis had been abuzz for the last few days. He hired a few people to investigate this and
finally got some information about what happened that day. He spent a lot of money to buy that photo...
