Chapter 720
A bunch of ignorant fools! ‘I, Philip Clarke, have nothing but money!’ “No?
Don’t think I don’t know your current situation. Juan told me that your family’s bankrupt! You’re a pauper now, and who knows if
you’re in debt too!” Martha roared, her voice resounding throughout the living room.
Amelia and her family stared blankly, puzzled at the news. Bankrupt? Debt?
Philip raised his brows, his eyes cold and stern. Juan could really resort to just about any method.
Regardless. “You’ll find out in a minute,” Philip said mildly without further explanation. Everyone looked
at each other in bafflement. “Fine, I want to see what tricks you have up your sleeve,”
Amelia said disdainfully. What could a wastrel like him do? About ten minutes later, Philip received a

She had no idea what Philip was up to. “Don’t you want to know who that Rolls-Royce belongs to?”
Philip asked as a faint smile played on his lips. Martha glanced at Amelia and the latter quickly reacted.
“Sister Martha, let’s go. We’ll see what this brat is up to.” With that said, they followed Philip out of the
villa.
At the electronic gate, they saw the black Rolls-Royce parked there with the trademark Spirit of Ecstasy
golden sculpture on the bonnet, symbolizing grace and elegance. They could not help a sigh when they
saw this car. It was as expected of a luxury car indeed. Especially Amelia and Lynn whose eyes were
full of envy and delight. Initially, Martha was still angry, but when she saw the car, she forgot her anger
and walked around the car while exclaiming in joy. It would be so gratifying if she had this car to pick
her up every day. That was the disposition of a wealthy lady! Therefore, she was a little eager to keep
the car now. Anyway, Martha was already quite certain that Philip had bought this car using the money
from Wynn’s company.
Since it was her family’s money, then this car belonged to her. Philip must not be given the chance to
ride in this car. “Well, Martha, the car’s great, isn’t it?” Amelia also noticed that Martha liked this car and
started to flatter her, saying, “Why don’t we do it this way? We’ll only use it once or twice a week, and
you can have it for the rest of the week. We’re a family, after all, right?” Amelia continued the
discussion of the car allocation with Martha. Martha was absolutely unwilling to let them use it, but she
could not refuse as that would make her look very petty. “Okay, two days at most,”
Martha said. Amelia was delighted and winked at Bernard to show off. After that, she took Martha’s arm and flattered her with all

“Sister Martha, you’re so generous. As expected of a wealthy lady. It’s a blessing to have you in the Johnston family. From now
on, our family will rely on you.” Martha listened with joy and was ecstatic. She smiled triumphantly and said, “Ah, that’s nothing.
We’re a family, after all.” The few people just chatted among themselves, totally excluding Philip. It was as if the Rolls-Royce
really belonged to them. At this time, the door of the Rolls-Royce opened. An old man in a gray suit who was holding a black and
gold walking cane stepped out of the car. It was none other than George Thomas. When she laid eyes on him, Martha’s eyes
widened as she covered her chest. She asked excitedly, “You… You’re George Thomas?” George Thomas? Bernard and Amelia
also looked over and instantly became very excited! He was the richest man in Riverdale! Why was he here? Wait a minute, he
came down from the Rolls-Royce! Was this car not bought by Philip with the company’s money? Instantly, everyone was stunned
and they could not figure out what was going on. George stood respectfully in front of Philip, bowed, and said, “Mr. Clarke.”
Everyone was astounded by that scene! George Thomas, the richest man in Riverdale, actually bowed to Philip, that useless
man!
