The First Heir

“Mom, I really…”

“Enough! Shut up, why are you still lying?”

Martha was mad. This useless guy was still lying about this? “Right, come back for a while. There’s going to be a guest in the house. Come back and act as the supporting role.”

After she said that, Martha hung up the phone. She slammed the phone down on the coffee table with her cheeks puffed in anger.

“What’s wrong? Did Philip make you upset again?” Charles asked after noticing the changes in Martha’s expression.

“That wretched bum is still lying to me. He said he bought a house at Longford Park. You have no idea, the mansions over there cost at least 35 million! Is he crazy? How can he say something like this?”

Martha gritted her teeth in anger.

Charles shook his head helplessly. He sighed and asked all of a sudden, “Will you move there if he has really bought a house at Longford Park?”

Martha was taken aback. She frowned and pointed at the door after getting up. She shouted, “He’s just a worthless piece of trash. How can he afford a house at Longford Park? Let’s not talk about that place anymore. I’ll cook and clean for him every day even if he buys a villa in the hills for me. I’ll serve him tea and wait on him!”

When Charles heard this, he shook his head even more. He did not say anything else.

His wife was like this.

“Right, I forgot to tell you, Charlie. Joel Harris is coming over in a bit. Go buy some ingredients, I’ll cook for him later.”

Martha sat down suddenly as a huge grin appeared on her face.

“Joel Harris? Old Man Harris’ boy? Isn’t he studying overseas? He’s back?” Charles was shocked. He removed his presbyopic glasses.
