Chapter 342
Anne was in a dilemma. However, Philip did not think too much. He merely turned around to look at Dean Neale and said, “Dean
Neale, this little boy doesn’t have a spot…” Dean Neale chuckled lightly and replied, “It’s nothing, we have a special ward on the
top floor.” Philip nodded. “Thank you for the trouble, Dean Neale.” Dean Neale smiled. “It’s nothing.” Then, Dean Neale and the
doctors dismissed themselves. Meanwhile, after Philip made another phone call, he over to Anne and said, “The medical team
will arrive in Riverdale tomorrow.” “Tomorrow?” Anne’s hands became frozen.
She pushed her hair back behind her ears and said softly, “Thank you.” “You don’t have to be so courteous. It’s something I
should do. If you want to thank me take good care of Mila.” Philip chuckled. He was really fond of Anne and wanted to make her
his sister. The two of them stayed in the hospital for a bit before parting ways. On the other hand, Martha had stayed awake
since the day before and had not slept throughout the entire night.
She was ecstatic. She stayed home for the entire day and admired the jade bangle. It was so pretty. The more she looked at it,
the prettier it became.

get that bangle? It’s something special. It looks like it’s made of some type of jade that’s glassy. It’s
very valuable.” Charles looked at it once more. It was a glassy jade bangle worth at least a few
hundred thousand bucks. When Martha heard that, her face bloomed like a flower. She grabbed
Charles and asked, “How much?” Charles pondered for a while before saying, “I’m not sure, I guess at
least a few hundred thousand bucks. I remember seeing it on the TV once. There was one that looked
exactly like this one and it valued at 200 million bucks!” “200 million?”
Martha covered her mouth in shock, and her eyes widened. That much?
“This one might be a replica. Nevertheless, the glassy jade it’s made of should be real. So, I guess
maybe at least a few hundred thousand.” If it cost 200 million, it would not have appeared on Martha’s
wrist. Charles asked,
“Right, where did you get it?” Martha felt very pleased with herself. She held her head up high as she
said, “I got it from Philip. That piece of trash was hiding such a gem. Thankfully, I went over to their
place and had a look. If I hadn’t taken it, this bangle would have gone to waste.” Martha was so happy.
She had found this thing that cost a few hundred thousand bucks.
So what if it belonged to Philip? He had been a spineless bum at her house for the past three years
and never gave anything good to her. The bangle would suffice as compensation. “Philip gave it to
you?” Charles asked.
“Would he have given it to me? I took it. I took their certificate of property ownership too. I’m going to
give it to an agent this afternoon. That way, we can buy a hillside villa.” Martha was joyous. She had
everything planned.
As long as she could live in a hillside villa, she would be a rich woman.
When Charles heard this, he was shocked. He asked in astonishment, “You took it? Isn’t that stealing?” Martha was not happy
when she heard the word
‘stealing’. Thus, she slapped Charles across the face and said unhappily,
“What are you talking about? Am I not allowed to enter my daughter’s house? Am I not allowed to take a few things from my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdaughter’s house? I helped them pay half of their house, so what if I took the bangle?” After Martha finished yelling, she stood
up, took her bag, and said angrily,
“You’re just an old codger. I’m going out!” Having said that, Martha turned around and walked away. While shaking her bottom,
she walked out of the door. Where was she going? To flaunt, of course! Early in the morning, she made a few calls and invited
her sister along with a few of her friends for tea. At that time, Philip arrived at his 70 to 80 square feet home after returning from
the hospital. He had come back to take some things and wanted to take a few fresh sets of clothes for Mila. Hence, Philip went
into the bedroom and picked out some clothes for his daughter. However, just as he was about to leave, he noticed that
something was amiss. The drawer had been opened by someone. He pondered for a while before thinking, ‘Did a burglar come
into the house?’ Quickly, he ran over and began to rummage through his drawers frantically. The next instant! The house was
filled with rage and anger! Philip gritted his teeth so hard that one could hear the sound of his teeth grinding together.
Additionally, an uncontainable rage could be seen in his eyes, and it was as if he was an infuriated lion. The box was still there,
but his mother’s bangle was gone! It was the only item his mother had left him! “Ah!” Philip roared furiously. His voice was like
rumbling thunder as it resonated into the distance. Consequently, the entire building began to shake! Who did this? Do they want
to die?
