The First Heir
Chapter 788

Chapter 788

At this moment, Martha had lost her arrogance.

She never dreamed that Philip would be the big boss of Milanelson Angel Investment Group.

He was worth hundreds of billions!

Mamma mia!

Was her son-in-law really that rich?

His family had gone bankrupt, right?

What the hell was happening now?

At this time, Amelia nudged Martha in the arm and whispered, “Martha, no wonder Philip didn’t careabout the villa. So it turns out that he’s this rich?”

Martha was also very nervous and puzzled. She dared not look at Philip.

Philip smiled coldly, glanced at the crowd, and said a few words to Ian next to him. He then left withWynn.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after Philip left.

The atmosphere just now was too oppressive.

Everyone chose not to mention what happened just moments ago. As for dinner, no one was interestedanymore.

It was just too shocking!

They would never forget the scene just now.

Philip took Wynn out of the housing area and said directly, “What do you want to ask?”

Wynn hesitated for a long time as she looked at Philip, her eyes flickering with doubts. Then, she finallyasked, “Philip, what else are you hiding from me? Isn’t your family bankrupt? What’s going on here?”

It turned out that Philip had been helping her in secret the entire time.

Wynn felt very uncomfortable now.

Philip held Wynn’s pink cheeks and said, “Silly, Milanelson Angel Investment Group actually belongs tomy uncle. He just asked me to take care of it for the time being.”

Sorry, Uncle Tim, he had no choice but to do this now.

“Your uncle?”

Wynn was very suspicious. She was obviously not convinced by what Philip said.

Philip nodded and said, “It’s true. Actually, the situation in my family is very complicated. It’s true thatClarke Group in Capital City belongs to my family, and it’s indeed bankrupt, but Milanelson AngelInvestment Group is also ours. It’s managed by Uncle Tim alone. That’s also why Giada was quarrelingwith Uncle Tim. They’re busy divvying up the family property.”

This explanation was quite plausible.

It was neither too clear-cut nor completely laid out.

Wynn accepted this explanation and could not help asking, “What does Uncle Tim plan to do?”

Philip bopped her nose and said, “Of course, it’s up to me to handle it. Don’t worry. I’m responsible forMilanelson Angel Investment Group now. Although I can’t mobilize that much funds and there are alsonot as much as hundreds of billions as rumored in the market, there are still tens of billions.”

Tens of billions!

Wynn’s jaw dropped in astonishment, and at the same time, she was relieved.

It was good that Philip was not in debt because of the bankruptcy.

However, she needed some time to digest this information properly.

“Let’s go home,” Philip said.

The two returned to the villa. Unfortunately, Martha and the others had already returned.

In the living room, Martha and Amelia were sitting on the sofa as if waiting for someone.

As soon as she saw Philip, Martha jumped to her feet like a monkey. She graciously served tea andsaid to Philip, “Philip, you’re finally home. Look, I made tea for you.”

Philip and Wynn exchanged a helpless glance.

This was Martha’s attitude. She would flatter the person with money and power.

Previously, she was indifferent to Philip and could not wait to kick him out, but now, she treated him likeher own son.

“You should go and rest,” Philip said tenderly to Wynn.

Wynn nodded. When she passed by Martha, she shook her head helplessly.

Martha approached Philip, pulled him to sit down, and said with a smile, “Philip, I was wrong beforethis. It’s wrong of me to look down on people. Don’t take it to heart. We’re a family after all.”

“Yes, Philip, if I did anything wrong, please forgive me. I’m just an uncouth person.”

Amelia quickly agreed.

“Philip, look, since you’re the big boss of Milanelson Angel Investment Group, you must be very rich.How much worth of assets do you have right now?”

Martha rolled her eyes around and finally got to the point.

Seeing Philip’s grim expression, she quickly explained, “You see, it’s not that I’m trying to replace out howmuch worth of assets you have, but I’m just concerned about you. This money must be kept within thefamily. Actually, it’s best if I keep it for you. How about that?”

On the way back, Martha had discussed this matter with the others. This Philip was actually keepingsuch big news from them.

If they did not get some money from him, they would feel sorry for themselves.

This big boss had assets worth hundreds of billions!

Martha never imagined that her son-in-law would be so awesome!

She had struck the jackpot!

She needed to grab hold of this money tree tightly!

Philip’s expression froze. He could already tell that Martha was after his money.

The audacity!

“You want to know how much money I have?” Philip asked her instead with a faint smile on his lips.

Martha nodded vigorously and said with a smile, “Yes, yes, tell me how much you have.”
