Chapter 460
Martha sat on the head of the bed and watched as Philip drank the soup.
Then, she smiled and said, “Oh, we’re family. You’re my son-in-law. Who should I be good to if not you?” If anyone else heard
what she said, they would have thought that they were extremely close. However, when Philip heard it, it felt ear-piercing and
sarcastic. Like the quote said, ‘Beware of suspicious folk bearing gifts, they are sure to be ill-intentioned’. Was this not why
Martha was fawning all over him this morning? “Mom, do you need anything?” Philip asked. When Martha heard that, she
immediately played dumb and said, “No, it’s nothing. What can I need? Oh, get up soon, I bought breakfast for you. Come down
and eat.” After she said that, she turned around and left. Philip looked at Martha’s back and shook his head helplessly. Then, he
scoffed. Martha’s every thought was written on her face. After he went downstairs and entered the dining room, Philip started to
drink the milk and eat the bun that Martha had bought. Martha was grinning opposite him. She had been staring at Philip with a
smile on her face the entire time. It was quite scary. “Mom, is there something wrong?”
Philip was feeling helpless. He felt uncomfortable as Martha kept staring at him like this. Martha

walked him to the door herself. Then, her smile turned cold as she watched Philip disappear from her
sight. She muttered, “This kid is not that special. How did he get the money to buy a villa all of a
sudden?” “Did you forget about Giada Wallis?” Suddenly, Charles appeared behind Martha with his
birdcage and reminded her. Martha jumped up with shock. She smacked him a few times and said,
“Yeah! That b*tch Giada is his stepmother! Plus, she looks like a woman from a rich family too. Say, is
Philip a nouveau riche? Did he run away from home because of his stepmother?” Charles shook his
head. “I don’t know, but I’m warning you. You better know your place.” After he said that, Charles left to
take a walk around the neighborhood. Martha was feeling frustrated. When she got back to the villa,
she mulled about this for a very long while. In the end, she decided to call Paula and a few of her
relatives to invite them to the villa. Over here, Riverdale Public Hospital.
“Trash! All of you! Why did I spend so much money on all of you?” Noah was lying in his single room as
he roared into his phone. His subordinates lowered their heads and stood at one side. They did not
dare to make noises.
“I want to break his limbs today! Get some people over now! Pronto!” Noah smashed his phone onto
the floor. Then, he got up and walked to the window. His face was dark. Damn it, he had completely
embarrassed himself last night! Noah Anderson had never lost to anyone when it came to drinking. In
the end, he was defeated by a man who was dependent on his woman! His men were all useless bums
as well. They could not even keep an eye on one person! Noah’s chest was filled with rage. His efforts
last night had all gone to waste because of Philip! Not only did he fail to claim Wynn, but he also ended
up in the hospital. “Philip Clarke, I’ll make you wish you’re dead!” Noah punched down on his bed. He
looked terrifying with his teeth gritted. … After getting out of the villa, Philip walked a few steps and was
about to take the bus to go take a look at his company. It had been so long since he went, so he did not
know the situation in his company now. He was just an arm-flinging owner, and his life was so carefree.
Everyone was going on their own way on the street. A few gangsters were smoking on the street not far away from Philip. They
peered at Philip, then looked at their phones. After that, they threw away their cigarette butts and followed him sneakily. Philip’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhands were in his pocket as he stood at the bus stop. The gangsters followed behind him sloppily. They were observing him
while looking at the crowd around him. However, they did not know that Philip was chuckling coldly. Philip knew that there was a
group of people following him, but he did not show any signs that he was aware of them. Was it Houston, or Noah from last
night? After pondering for a while, Philip left the bus stop and pretended to walk around. After a short while, the gangsters behind
him saw that he had turned into an alleyway. They were delighted as they looked at each other. Two of them followed Philip into
the alley while two of them stood at the front, smoking. The leader of the group had an eagle tattoo on his neck. He stared at
Philip in front of him and turned back to look at the entrance of the alleyway. After he got the okay from his men, he slowly took
out a folding knife from his pocket. “If we stab this kid, we can get 50,000 bucks!” He was delighted. He did not expect this to be
so easy. That guy looked weak and fragile. This was such easy money. He held the folding knife in his hand, and the blade
reflected a dazzling light under the sun. Philip turned around suddenly and innocently looked at the man who was holding the
folding knife. He pretended that he did not see the knife in his hand and asked with a stupid grin on his face,
“Brother, you’re here to pee as well?” The tattooed man was shocked by Philip’s sudden question. The corner of his eyes
twitched as he gripped the folding knife in his hand tightly. He yelled aggressively, “Pee my *ss! Go to hell!” The tattooed man’s
face was filled with malice. In his eyes, Philip was destined to be a dead man! It was 50,000 bucks!
