Chapter 784

On the other side, Seth eagerly said, “Hahaha, don’t forget we have someone by the name of Clarkehere too, right, Philip?”

The crowd immediately turned unfriendly eyes toward Philip.

Him?

How could he ever be the billionaire Mr. Clarke?

What a joke!

“Hehe, if Philip is that Mr. Clarke, I’m most willing to kneel and apologize to him,” Jacey saidcontemptuously, her eyes full of disdain toward Philip.

“You really do have to have to kneel down and apologize,” Philip said indifferently, a trace of chill in hiseyes.

“What? Did I hear it wrongly? Do you really think you’re that Mr. Clarke? Rubbish!”

Jacey immediately jumped to her feet, pointed at Philip’s nose while cursing. She was even about to hithim.

Seth also defended his wife. He pushed Philip and chastised, “Worthless bum! Stop being soshameless. Wynn is the one who helped us on this matter. What has anything got to do with you?Besides, can you be that Mr. Clarke? That person is worth hundreds of billions of assets, and everyhand is an investment worth a hundred million. Do you have that kind of money?”

Seth felt very scornful toward Philip’s patronizing attitude.

Did he really regard himself as an important character?

He was just a live-in son-in-law!

“What if I said I do?”

Philip did not back down but looked at Seth coldly instead. He had regretted it.

The Green family was not worthy of his help.

Hahaha!

Everyone laughed uproariously at his question.

“What? Are you saying you’re that Mr. Clarke?” Jacey sneered at this moment, her face wrinkled withsmiles. The look in her eyes was filled with superiority as if she was looking at a beggar.

“Gosh, I’m about to die from laughter. Sister Martha, is your Philip suffering from a delusion?”

“What an idiot! This is too embarrassing. How shameful!”

“Hey, their last names are the same, but this one is simply too brazen!”

Several peers and elders all laughed and looked at Philip mockingly.

In their eyes, Philip was nothing but a joke.

On the other hand, Philip stood there indifferently, looking at the ugly behavior of this group of people.He was feeling doleful.

Sure enough, the rich would have distant relatives even if they lived in the mountains, while the poorwould have no one even if they lived in the city.

Philip sneered internally but did not expose them.

He knew that anything he said would be in vain right now. He was already used to such treatment, sohe would rather deal with less.

At this time, Jacey sat next to Wynn and asked, “Wynn, say, why did Mr. Clarke agree to theinvestment after you made one call? And it’s 100 million at that! And you still claim that you don’t knowhim?”

“That’s right, Wynnie, tell us the truth. Are you keeping something from us?”

“I agree. When this Mr. Clarke heard that you needed a favor, he just helped you without another word.What else if he’s not interested in you?”

All the old ladies crowded around Wynn.

Martha also said excitedly, “Wynnie, tell me, do you know him? If you do, bring him to our house for ameal someday. You must grab hold of such a rich young man. Don’t waste the opportunity!”

As she said that, she glared contemptuously at Philip who stood next to them and sneered, “Unlikesomeone who has nothing to contribute to this family… All bark and no bite!”

That Philip was a rich young master but had gone bankrupt recently. Martha did not tell the relativesabout this.

She did not wish for the relatives to change their opinions about Philip at all.

Even if Philip had a good temper, he could not tolerate so many people mocking him at the same time.

Upon seeing this, Wynn quickly got up and said, “That’s enough, let’s stop talking about this. Mom,don’t be ridiculous. I’ve never met Mr. Clarke before. I really don’t know what’s going on. I’ll ask about itlater.”

Having said that, she pulled Philip out the front door.

Wynn stood at the door in a huff. “They’re going to be the death of me. How can they say that aboutyou? You’re my husband after all!”

Philip’s mouth curled up at the corners as he looked at Wynn pouting with her arms crossed. Hewalked over, pinched her red lips, and said, “Don’t be angry. Just look at your pouty mouth.”

Wynn rolled her eyes at him and said, “How could I not be angry? If they’re not my elders, I’d be yellingat them already!”

Suddenly!

A voice called out from a distance.

“Madam Johnston.”

Hearing this, Wynn turned to look and saw a middle-aged man in a gray suit walking down from a blackMercedes.

“Mr. Sawyer, why are you here?”

Wynn was stunned. The man in front of her was the person in charge of Milanelson Angel InvestmentGroup, Mr. Ian Sawyer!

With a smiling face, Ian trotted over and reached out a hand to Philip, saying, “Mister…”
