The First Heir

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 chuckled. She said, “It’s fine. Eat. Eat.”

Philip was puzzled. He went out after he finished eating.
