Chapter 50

By then, Martha’s friends had noticed Philip. They snorted out and mocked, “Martha, is that your son-in-law? He looks really plain and so absentminded, like a blockhead. Your daughter is so pretty, shemust have been blind to marry him!”

“Yeah, such a useless man is a disgrace to us elders. Thankfully my son-in-law is not like him.”

The group of elders started laughing in mockery.

Martha’s cheeky smile earlier was now completely gone. She snorted. “That wretched piece of trash isnot my son-in-law. In a few days, I’ll have my daughter divorce him!”

Philip had heard the insults directed to him by the group. He could only shake his head and smiledcoldly. He was already used to insults like this. They called him a wretched piece of trash, but whatwere they doing here? They had even called Aiden to come over and help. Now Philip really wanted tosee just how Aiden can help with this situation.

Just then, a white Maserati drove over on the street, looking very flashy.

Martha squealed in delight. “Addy, Aunty’s over here. Look, our Aiden is here. We can solve this now.”Martha emphasized on the word ‘our’, as if afraid that others would not know.

Philip pouted, feeling a little suffocated on the inside.

The crowd looked toward the sound source to see a handsome young man wearing an expensive suitcoming out from the Maserati.

Martha went over with an expression like she was looking at her son and smiled. “Addy, you’re finallyhere. Was it a bother?”

After Aiden got out, he politely greeted Martha, “Aunt Martha, it’s alright. I just happen to be free today.What’s the situation here? Has something bad happened?”

After a glance around, Aiden noticed Philip, who was shouting hysterically in the crowd. Aiden’sexpression immediately fell, and he glared hatefully at Philip. What was that trash doing here?

“Addy, something bad happened. My friends and I have purchased a financial plan from this company,and they’ve said that they would pay out the interest today. But when we came here this morning, theboss has gone missing. Can you tell us what’s going on?” Martha clapped her hands togetheranxiously and seemed to have thought of something. She asked, “Addy, you own a company, so youmust know some people. Can you help me replace the owner of this company and replace out what’s goingon?”

After taking a look at the situation and listening to Martha’s explanation, Aiden roughly understood. Thisgroup of older people had definitely been scammed. It would not be easy to help them.

However, when he saw Martha’s earnest gaze and Philip’s expression, which looked like he wanted tolaugh, Aiden steeled himself and said confidently with a smile, “Aunt Martha, don’t worry, I can takecare of this. I just happened to be acquainted with the boss of this company. I’ll ask him what’s going.You can relax.”

“Okay, okay.” Martha was excited. She wore a bright smile and tugged at Aiden’s arm. “Addy’s still thebest after all. Better than some wretched trash.”

Her friends were now fawning over Aiden, praising him for his capabilities. Aiden’s heart was blooming.He smiled and looked at the signboard of the financial company, feeling very pleased with himself. Heknew that today was his day to shine. After he had lost his favor with his future father-in-law, he wouldnow get it back from his future mother-in-law. If he could have Martha on his side, that meant Wynnwas already partially his.

After that, he shot an arrogant glance at Philip before taking out his phone to call his father. “Dad, didn’tyou say that you’ve dined with the boss of Lucrative Funds Finance Company before? I havesomething that I need your help with…”

After the call, Aiden smiled widely as he looked at the older folks, enjoying how everyone had theireyes on him. He cleared his throat and said, “Don’t worry, everyone, my dad knows the boss of thisfinance company. I’ve already given my dad a call, so I’m sure there will be answers too. Everyone,please don’t worry too much.”

The crowd of older folks started praising Aiden. The man felt like he was about to float. Aiden shiftedhis gaze over to the few staff of the finance company who had stayed behind. “Let me talk to them.Uncles and Aunts, please wait for my good news.” Having said, Aiden walked over proudly to the fewstaff members, hoping to look almighty.

However, a small voice from beside rang in his ears all of a sudden. “Mom, that won’t do. Aiden hastricked you. Why don’t I make a call, maybe it can help…” Philip’s voice was small. Everyone had theireyes on Aiden, so Philip’s voice now sounded especially piercing to his ears.

Aiden had wanted to go over to the staff members, but he abruptly stopped and turned to the side,looking annoyed.

Philip was tugging at Martha, seeming to be advising her on something, but Martha was reluctant topay him any mind. She pointed at him and berated, “Philip, beat it! Is there any place for you to speakup here? If Aiden can’t help, can a wretched piece of trash like you help?”

Not just Martha, now everyone was looking at Philip with contempt in their eyes. So this was Martha’suseless son-in-law. What a chatty brat, he really was useless.

Right now, other than Aiden, who was a man of status, who else here could say that they could solvethis problem?

Upon seeing this situation, Aiden walked over to Philip with a mocking look on his face. “Why? Do youfeel upset? Why don’t you take a good look at yourself? Can you solve a problem like this?”
