The First Heir

“What, now the two of you are ganging up to defend that wretch? Won’t you spare a thought for me at all?”

Martha was furious and especially unhappy when she saw that Charles and Wynn were united against her.

She was the master of this household.

Philip was nothing!

“Mom, could you stop being so unreasonable?”

Wynn was flabbergasted. What was wrong with her mother now? Why did she have such a temper all of a sudden?”

“I’m being unreasonable? Look at him, he’s just standing there! He could’ve at least asked to look at our wounds. We might seem fine at first, but what if we’re more badly injured somewhere you can’t see? All he’s doing is standing there. I bet he just wants us to die as soon as possible!”

Martha said fiercely, her brows raised viciously and her expression icy. Her gaze shone with her rage at Philip.

“Alright, Mom, Dad. I’ll go call a doctor now.”

Philip had no choice. He turned and jogged off to get a doctor.

Even Philip had no idea how he had survived three years with such an unreasonable nightmare of a mother-in-law.

After Philip left, Martha pouted and muttered under her breath, “See, he’s totally doing it on purpose. He just stood there like an idiot for so long instead of getting a doctor for your dad and me.”

To Martha, Philip’s very existence was a mistake right now.

Helpless, Wynn took Martha’s hand and said carefully, “Mom, you can’t treat Philip like that from now on. What on earth did he do wrong? We’ve been married for three years, and we even have Mila. Is he not your son-in-law? Is Mila not your granddaughter?”
