The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 398

Gina Wood did not think that a good-for-nothing like Philip could ever afford a villa. She heard that Wynn became the chairman of

a company, so there was a possibility that she bought it, but for the sake of dignity, they were claiming that Philip bought it

instead. In any case, Gina was unhappy.

They were all members of the Johnston family, but Charles’ family was the one who bought a villa, so anyone would be upset

about it. “Haha, Gina, I think Martha is just joking around. How can that trash afford a villa?”

Another sister-in-law, Amelia Stone, had a mocking expression on her face.

The two families arrived together. Charles’ two younger brothers, Martin Johnston and Bernard

Johnston, also looked disdainful. The two families were ordinary people and possessed an aptitude of

average citizens too.

When they heard that the eldest sibling’s family had bought a villa, they were all unhappy because of

their falling dignities. The eldest brother became a section head before he retired. Back then, he did not

help them much, and because of such trivial matters, the three families were not on good terms. Lynn

Johnston was also here and dressed to the nines. She wore a pair of hotpants and a strappy top. It was

quite revealing. Her face was pouty, and she looked very unhappy to be called over on such a hot day.

She was just about to go shopping and watch a movie with her friends. She wondered how Philip had

managed to settle the matter of the sports car last time. He had not looked for her for compensation

even after so many days.

Could it be that Philip was just a little bit more capable than she thought?

Very soon after, Paula arrived with Samantha and Frank. As soon as she appeared, the Johnston

brothers started to fawn over her. After all, this sister of Martha’s was quite a looker. “Oh, Sister Paula,

you’re here too.” Few people came up to her and started simpering. Paula was pleased. The people

from the Johnston family were nothing but wretches. “Martha invited me to visit the villa that her son-in-

law bought.” Paula acted like a proud old mother hen. She held her head high and looked down at

people with her nose. “Pooh, that good-for-nothing Philip! How can he compare to your sonin-law,

Frank?” Gina stepped forward at this moment and said with a demure smile, “Sister Paula, when can

Frank arrange a job for that incompetent son of mine? Even a security job will do.” “That’s right, for that

daughter of mine too. It has been a year since she graduated and she hasn’t found a job yet. She only

knows how to fool around with some dancing game every day.” “And my youngest daughter is about to

graduate too. Do let your Frank make some arrangements for us.” Frank was already quite annoyed,

especially when he heard that they were supposed to come to the Old Johnston Manor and visit

Philip’s villa. He was full of reluctance.

Others did not know Philip’s identity, but he did. Especially when he heard the criticisms about Philip

from afar, he felt very amused. These people were just as disgusting as before. Was he so disgusting

back then too? Frank did not plan to reveal Philip’s identity. Firstly, he dared not. Secondly, he did not

want to. He also wanted to look at the ugly faces of these people and their various reactions upon

finding out Philip’s identity. That should be really gratifying. “Of course, I’ll check when I return to the

office,” Frank responded with a laugh as a chill flashed in his eyes. It was then followed by endless

flattery from these people. Paula was very pleased that her sonin-law could elevate her status like this.

At this moment, Martha came out of the house with Charles. She cursed angrily, “If that wimp really did

buy a villa, so what if I’m to kowtow to him today?” This sentence was aimed at Charles because he

kept dissuading Martha from making such a commotion. Why did she have to invite so many people?

Was it only Philip who would be ashamed when the time came? “Oh, Sister-in-law Martha, you’re finally

out. What’s the situation? Has Philip bought a villa?” Gina was the first to approach her with a taunting

expression on her face as she asked. “That’s right, Sister-in-law Martha, don’t try to fool us. All of us

are aware of how capable your Philip is.” Amelia also joined in mockingly.

Martha sneered and said, “That’s the reason I invited all of you today. When the time comes, you have

to stand united with me to teach that trash Philip a good lesson. He actually…” Blah, blah, blah. Martha

spoke at length and finally explained the situation to everyone. The few people glanced at each other

and understood. Today’s event was specifically to humiliate Philip.

This idiot even dared to brag about something like buying a villa. Sure enough, he was nothing but a wastrel who could not be

helped anymore.

“Sure, Martha, we’ll listen to your instructions.” Several people agreed readily. Charles’ brothers breathed a sigh of relief. It was

not what they had expected after all. After waiting for a while, Martha impatiently called Philip and said admonishingly, “Where’s

the car you arranged? Didn’t you say you’ll pick us up?” “Mom, wait for a moment. It should be there soon.”

Philip explained. Philip was here busy making the arrangements at First Palace. He even sent several big red packets in the

group chat to make the employees work faster. Martha hung up the phone and with her arms crossed over her chest. She stared

at the street ahead fiercely. Sure enough, a few luxury cars approached slowly. “Hey, Sister-in-law Martha, are those Mercedes-

Benzes there?” Gina pointed and asked. “No way, how can a wimp like Philip arrange for Mercedes-Benzes to pick us up?”

Amelia raised her voice and mocked. Those were indeed Mercedes-Benzes, the luxurious models too! Martha also felt that it was

impossible, so she waved her hands and said, “Stop dreaming. It’s good enough if that guy can even afford a Wuling vehicle.”

The four black Mercedes-Benz S-Class vehicles stopped directly in front of everyone. These four cars were not ordinary.

They were adorned with an insignia of a gold dragon head in front! This was a logo unique to Riverdale! Only one family would

dare to do this, the Longford family of Riverdale! The doors opened in unison, and the drivers were all dressed in black suits,

white gloves, and a golden dragon logo embroidered on the chest. They stood respectfully in front of the cars and greeted them

with a bow, “Please get into the cars.” Everyone was dumbstruck at this moment! They were really here to pick them up…
