Chapter 111

There was a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties behind Martha. She was very fashionably
dressed, a little on the plump side. She had a red LV bag, a jade bangle, a gold chain, and even a
stylish older-lady perm.

Everyone could feel her aura the moment she walked in. She oozed luxury!

That was Martha’s second older sister, Philip and Wynn’s second aunt.

Her name was Paula Yates, and she was the second eldest daughter in the family.

Martha had never liked her second older sister.

The two of them would get into catfights every time they met, over the same old things.

Paula had a daughter who married a rich husband. The man had his own company and good
connections in society, so Paula’s social status rose accordingly. Life was pretty good for her now.

It was obvious in the way she dressed. She reeked of money.

It was as though she wanted to wear all of her fortunes wherever she went, so that everyone would
envy her.

Case in point, Paula gave Philip the stink eye as soon as she walked into the room and saw Philip. “Oh
my, isn’t that my dear nephew-in-law, Philip Clarke? How are things for you these days? I hear you’re
doing food delivery now. How much do you earn every month? Are you still staying in that tiny 800-
square feet house? When are you going to get a bigger place? If you’re out looking, you can ask our
Richard. He’s in property, you know, and he can give you a discount.”

As she said that, she even touched her new perm to show off the jade bracelet on her wrist.



“Oh dear, Richard is such a pain sometimes. I told him not to buy this for me, but he insisted. This
bracelet is worth eighty thousand, you know.”

Paula spoke to herself casually. When she saw her younger sister’s stormy expression, she covered
her mouth with her hand and giggled. “Oh my my, remind me again, Martha. Has Philip ever bought
you anything?”

She was arrogant, proud, and full of sarcastic barbs.

From the moment she walked through the door, Paula had kept her nose firmly in the air.

Martha was so furious that her body trembled. She glared at Philip and berated him, “What did I do in
my past life to deserve a son-in-law as useless as you? You’re an utter embarrassment to me!”

Philip had nothing to say to that.

The atmosphere was extremely awkward now.

Wynn was rather unhappy now too. Her aunt had always looked down on her family, all because she
thought Philip was useless, especially when compared to her rich son-in-law.

That was why her aunt would drop by every so often, saying she was here to visit her sister when she
actually came to show off and make jabs at them.

Wynn was exasperated to have a relative like that too.

Still, Paula was her elder. There was nothing Wynn could do.

“Why are you here, Aunt Paula?” Wynn interrupted Paula with a smile.

Paula was dominating the room. Her presence seemed to fill the place as she took a seat without
asking and said with a laugh, “I heard that you were hospitalized, so I came to see how you’re doing.”



Haha.

Everyone knew why she was really here.

Visiting Wynn was just a cover. What she really wanted was to show off.

Look at the way she put her LV on her lap and kept playing with it. She wanted everyone to know that
she had bought a fancy handbag.

That was also when Paula noticed Juan. She pointed at him and asked Martha, “Who’s that, Martha?”

Martha finally found a chance to show off. She hastily shoved Philip aside and even glared at him
before yanking Juan by the arm and beaming. “Oh, this is Juan. His family is quite well to do, they’re in
the gem business and they earn several tens of millions every year too. He’s Wynn’s good friend.”

Paula’s eyes seemed to shine when she looked at Juan now.

When she saw how proud Martha looked, though, her expression cooled down as well.

The two old women had been squabbling like this for years. Of course they understood each other.

Martha was probably hoping that Juan could become her new son-in-law.

Paula immediately gave them a smile of faux politeness. “Why, what a nice young man.” Inwardly,
though, she had cursed Martha to hell and back. Martha wanted a rich son-in-law now? Hmph!

Her daughter Wynn was already married and even had a kid. No one would want a woman like that.

Still, Paila could not say that out loud.

With that thought in mind, she gave Philip a look of pure irony too.



Philip Clarke was seriously such a waste of space. Even his mother-in-law wanted to get rid of him.

Martha’s heart brightened once she saw that her sister looked displeased. It was rare for her to get an
upper hand over Martha, so she immediately pulled Juan over and said, “Why are you just standing
there? C’mon, greet your Aunt Paula.”

Juan hastily said with a smile, “Hi, Aunt Paula.”

Paula reacted like a cat after someone stepped on its tail. She jumped to her feet and said, “Oh no no,
you can’t call me that. That’s all wrong! You’re not my nephew-in-law, you can’t call me aunt.”

The atmosphere in the room turned instantly awkward.

Paula’s reply was undeniably a bright slap across Martha’s face.

“Martha, I think Philip is a good man. He’s willing to work hard, right? You shouldn’t scold or hit him so
much. After all, you’re still family.” Paula easily lied through her teeth.

If Martha did end up getting a rich son-in-law, who else was she supposed to show off to?

That was why she must never let Martha’s little plot succeed!

Sparks flew around the hospital room.

Paula saw how red her younger sister’s face had turned, so she instantly changed the subject. “Oh
yeah, Dad’s seventieth birthday is coming up soon. Are you guys attending the party?”

Haha.

If they went, the entire family would be laughing at them all night.



The thought of it gave Paula much pleasure.

“No, we’re not,” Martha huffed.

“You’re not? That won’t do. Even if you’re mad at Dad, Martha, you can’t skip his birthday party. He
really misses you these days, he keeps talking about you.” Paula grew anxious once she heard that her
sister was not going home.

She was waiting for the day Martha and the Johnstons embarrassed themselves in front of the entire
family.

However…

Just then, a calm voice interrupted them unexpectedly.

“We’ll be there, Aunt Paula. Mom was only kidding,” Philip suddenly said with a chuckle.
