The First Heir -
Chapter 778
Chapter 778
For instance, the tea set he took down from upstairs was previously given to him by Anna Carter. Hehad completely forgotten about it and just left it at home.
How much was it?
It was a handcrafted clay tea set worth 800,000.
It could be considered an expensive gift.
Seeing Philip returning with a gift box, Martha held back and said nothing.
Amelia’s family was also there and they had only brought simple gifts with them. Those gifts wereactually swiped from the villa and were things that Philip bought for Wynn, such as honey and royaljelly.
She was really thick-skinned as she kept a few boxes for herself too.
Once Wynn returned, the entire family headed toward the granduncle’s house.
It was a small villa of more than 300 square meters that cost ten million.
As soon as they entered the living room, they found that almost everyone was there.
The second uncle’s family had already arrived, and some relatives were talking in full swing whilecomplimenting each other.
However, when Philip walked in, everyone shut their mouths and looked at them with complicatedexpressions.
“Martha, Wynn, we’ve been waiting for you. Have a seat.”
“Wynn is really getting more beautiful. It must be quite busy at the company. You’re so thoughtful totake the time to come here.”
“Yes, I really didn’t expect our family to produce such a successful entrepreneur like Wynn.”
A group of people started to surround and flatter Wynn.
As for Philip, he was completely ignored.
Of course, as Wynn’s mother, Martha also received a lot of compliments and praise. Her sitting postureand mannerisms were comparable to the queen. She had total control of the audience before her.
At the relatives’ compliments, Martha was ecstatic and kept saying that Wynn was sensible. She saidnothing about Philip.
Amelia had a big mouth. As if she had planned this in advance, she deliberately mentioned Philip atthis time with a sullen face, “Philip, why are you still standing there in a daze? Aren’t you going to serveus tea? What a useless person.”
Almost as soon as Amelia finished speaking, the eyes of all the relatives turned toward Philip gleefully.
They were aware that he lived off that family, but they did not expect him to take advantage by comingalong too.
Wynn looked at Philip helplessly. Just as she was about to get up and help him, Martha pulled herdown again and said, “That’s enough. Let him go and do something with his hands and feet. You’recarrying a child. Don’t mess around.”
As soon as the child was mentioned, everyone started talking to Wynn enthusiastically.
Various compliments were heard.
Philip was unfazed. He walked into the kitchen and started making tea expertly.
As he had been here several times and was always the one in charge of making and serving tea, hewas naturally familiar with it.
Very soon, the granduncle and his family came down from the second floor.
Bradford Green was still very spry. He had a son and a daughter-in-law as well as a granddaughter anda grandson-in-law. His wife had passed away a few years ago.
“Is everyone here?”
Bradford entered the hall with the support of his son and daughter-in-law. Wearing a black suit andleaning on his walking cane, he sat on the main seat with a smile on his face.
A bunch of relatives also got up at this time, congratulating Bradford on his birthday. Then, theypresented him with their gifts.
When it got to Philip’s turn, he walked up with the gift box. Seth Cross, Bradford’s grandson-in-law,sneered, “Oh, it’s a big gift from Philip. I wonder what an expensive gift it is to be so tightly wrapped? Irecalled that two years ago, someone gave fruits and oatmeal.”
It was blatant ridicule and contempt.
Philip glared at Seth coldly. They had forged a grudge ages ago.
Seth Cross was a person with improper conduct. He was used to fooling around outside and wascaught by Jacey Green several times.
However, he always managed to deceive Jacey into forgiving him using unknown methods.
“What sort of good things can he give? He’s nothing but a piece of useless trash.”
“Yeah, I think the gift box only contains something worth a few hundred at most. The packaging isairtight as if it’s afraid of embarrassment.”
“Haha, I really feel sorry for Wynn, marrying such a useless thing that she has to work so hard.”
The crowd started to show contemptuous sarcasm. This Philip Clarke really lived off them for the pastthree years.
Who said he was different now?
He still looked as useless as before!
Martha was delighted. Seeing Philip being put down made her very happy.
Wynn could not tolerate it. She got up and wanted to explain, but Martha held her back with a sternglare.
“That’s enough. It’s my birthday today. Stop making a fuss.”
Since Old Master Bradford had spoken, everyone stopped and did not continue this topic.
Wynn found an opportunity to pull Philip aside and asked, “Are you alright? Why don’t I go home withyou first? You know they still have the old impression of you. Otherwise, let me explain everything tothem.”
Wynn was upset. She wanted to tell everyone that Philip was not a piece of useless trash!
Philip was better than every single one of them!
He bought the villa. His friend invested three billion in Beacon. He was also the young master of ClarkeGroup in Capital City!
As she spoke, she turned around and walked to the people talking and laughing on the other side…
