The First Heir
Chapter 170

Chapter 170

Wynn was crying from frustration. She stomped her feet and went back to her bedroom. Then, sheslammed the door.

Martha was stunned, but she shook her head while feeling pleased with herself. Then, she looked atCharles as if she was showing off. She stood up with a devilish grin on her face. She happily broughteverything back to her room.

After that, Martha remembered that there was something off about Philip.

Miss Sommerset gave them so many expensive gifts for no reason. Plus, judging from Wynn’sreaction, they must be hiding something from her.

“Charlie, what do you think is wrong with Philip? Why did Miss Sommerset send so many expensivethings to us?” Martha asked.

She was constantly thinking about Miss Sommerset.

Why would a normal friend send them so many expensive things?

It seemed that Philip and Miss Sommerset’s relationship was not that ordinary.

Charles was studying his calligraphies. He answered, “You should ask Wynn. She might know.”

Martha pressed her lips together and walked out of her bedroom. Coincidentally, she saw Wynnwalking out of her room. She called out, “Wynn, where are you going? I have something to ask you.”

Wynn ignored Martha. She pushed the door and walked away.

“That stupid girl is getting more and more out of hand. She must be getting influenced by that good-for-nothing.”

Martha rolled her eyes in anger and mumbled.

She had to call Philip and ask him about this.

After Martha had that thought, she dialed Philip’s number, “Philip, is Miss Sommerset your friend?”

Philip was in the hospital with Mila. When he heard that, he frowned instantly and asked, “Mom, did shego to your house?”

“No, she just asked someone to send some expensive things over.” Martha did not tell him what theywere. She was scared that he would ask for them back if she told him.

Philip was quiet. He forced out a smile and explained, “Mom, since she gave them to you, you shouldaccept them. She’s a good friend of mine from my hometown. She came to Riverdale for a vacation.”

When Martha heard that, she was pleased. She said excitedly, “Oh, Philip. You should have told methat you have a lot of rich friends. Right, just tell me what you want to eat next time. Don’t be courteouswith me. Also, invite Miss Sommerset over when she’s free. I have to entertain her properly.”

Martha’s attitude changed all of a sudden. However, Philip was not surprised.

She was just a person who would open her eyes to money and be easily swayed.

After talking for a while, Philip hung up the phone. His expression was solemn as he called Chloeimmediately. He said in a low voice, “Chloe Sommerset, what is the meaning of this?”

Chloe was walking out of the parking lot when she got Philip’s call. There was a pleased smirk on herface. “Nothing. I just gave your mother-in-law a surprise since she looks down on you so much. Howare things? Is she fawning over you right now? She also asked you to bring me back for dinner, right?”

Philip’s eyes went dark. He looked at his daughter who was sleeping on the bed and walked out of theroom. He said, “Chloe, I’m warning you. Don’t interfere with my business! Where are you?”

“Why? You can’t wait to see me, can you? Aren’t you scared that your wife will be worried?” Chloesashayed into the restaurant.

“You should know how my temper is. Where are you?” Philip’s voice turned icy.

“Northern Sky Western Restaurant,” Chloe replied before hanging up.

Philip was shocked!

Damn Chloe! He was tricked by her.

He thought she would not meet Wynn if he agreed to her request.

He did not have time to think. He ran out of the hospital and called a car to Northern Sky WesternRestaurant.

He had to stop this meeting.

At the same time.

After Wynn got dressed, she arrived at Northern Sky Western Restaurant.

This was the most luxurious and expensive restaurant that served western cuisine in Riverdale. Therewere only 17 branches in the country.

Wynn looked gorgeous tonight. When she arrived at the restaurant, she caught everyone’s attention.

“Hello, I have a reservation under Miss Sommerset,” Wynn smiled and said to the hostess

“Alright, please follow me.”

The hostess led Wynn to the top floor where the rotating restaurant was. It was a semi-open space.She could see the night view of Riverdale while below them was a swimming pool. One would feelrefreshed looking at the blue water in the pool.

Chloe had booked this entire floor.

Wynn saw Chloe sitting there sipping on her coffee. There was a moment where Wynn thought thatChloe was a perfect match for Philip.

She did not know why. Maybe it was because Chloe had the same habit as Philip when he wasdrinking his coffee.

She sat down.

The two of them looked at each other.

Wynn opened her mouth coldly and said, “Miss Sommerset, let’s be frank.”

Wynn was nervous. Her hands were still trembling when she placed them on her knees.

It was because Chloe was exerting so much pressure on her, especially by giving her parents thoseexpensive gifts. She was under an immense amount of stress.

Chloe parted her red lips. She smiled warmly and said, “Miss Johnston, how much do you know aboutPhilip?”

Wynn replied instantly, “Philip is my husband, so of course I know him well.”

Chloe smiled slightly and looked at Wynn. The latter was a porcupine that was covered with spines.She could not wait to pledge sovereignty.

“I am Philip’s fiancée,” Chloe said all of a sudden. Her eyes lacked warmth. She then took a sip of hercoffee.
