The First Heir

“Martha Yates! You’re simply incorrigible! I’ve had enough of you! Don’t think I don’t know what wicked things you’ve done! Things have progressed to this stage, can’t you face the reality?”

Charles roared and the whole living room resounded with his angry voice.

Martha was stunned.

She had never seen her husband in such a rage before.

“You… You dare to hit me? You hit me!”

Martha went mad and attempted to scratch Charles.

Charles was getting a headache, so he shoved Martha away, entered the study alone, and locked the door from the inside.

Martha sobbed and howled as she sat on the ground, beating her chest and wailing.

“Damn you, Charles Johnston, you’ve finally admitted it. You despise me for being old and dislike me for being unreasonable, right?”

Martha wept and bawled. “Divorce! I want to divorce you! I can’t stay in this family any longer! You and Wynn are turncoats, siding with Philip all the time. What’s so good about that wretch? He just has a bit of money now. Who knows if that money is even his! You two just keep licking his boots…”

After cursing for a long time, her throat became dry and Martha finally shut her mouth.

Suddenly, she recalled Tim’s final words before he left.

Whatever Philip dared not do, he would do it for him.

What was he going to do?

Would he kill her?
