Chapter 855

This time, Philip almost fell from the couch.

He grinned and said, “How is that possible? I don’t have that ability. I only have a bit of money. I thinksomeone must have lodged a report against them.”

Wynn frowned at Philip.

She kept feeling that he was lying.

However, she could not think of a reason for him to do so.

Sensing Wynn’s suspicious glance, Philip said guiltily, “Why are you looking at me that way? Don’t youknow what I look like? Okay, now that your company’s affairs have been resolved, you should takegood care of your health. This time, you’re not allowed to go anywhere. Do you hear me?”

Wynn gave her consent, continued watching the news on the screen, and then looked back at Philipwho was still on the sofa reading the newspaper with his legs propped.

Was it really not him?

“By the way, Phil, when are you going to introduce your friend to me?” Wynn suddenly asked whiledrinking her soup.

Philip was startled. Wynn was asking a lot of questions today.

“What friend?” Philip asked instead, feigning ignorance.

“Quite a few. For instance, the friend who invested three billion in us the first time. Or the friend whohelped us with the online scandal the other time. Or the friend…” Wynn said a lot in one breath. With afaint smile on her lips, she looked at Philip and waited for his answer.

Philip was flabbergasted and stared at Wynn dubiously.

F*ck!

Since when did he have so many friends?

He was doomed.

He was not going to be able to explain this. Now what?

Was this going to be confession day?

After thinking about it, Philip leaned forward, held Wynn’s little hand, and said with a grin, “Wynnie, if Itell you something, something that I’ve kept from you for a long time, will you be angry with me?”

He needed to get her mentally prepared first.

Wynn looked at the suddenly attentive Philip, crossed her arms over her chest, and deliberately saidcondescendingly, “That depends on what you tell me.”

That was really difficult to say.

Philip hesitated and finally made the decision.

“Uh, Wynnie… Actually, your husband… That’s me… I’m not as simple as you think. Actually, in fact,the Clarke family…” Philip said nervously.

However, at this time, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open!

Martha Yates, who had not been seen for a long time, turned up pretentiously.

As soon as she entered the door, she cried loudly. “Wynnie, what happened to you? Why are you socareless? Are you alright? You must talk to me!”

While talking, she pulled Philip away from his chair.

Look, what a virtuous mother-in-law.

Now she was so concerned about Wynn.

Philip stood silently and glanced at Charles who came in afterward.

Charles also smiled and greeted Philip.

“Philip! What’s going on? Why is my daughter in the hospital again?! Is it because of you? Tell me!”

Suddenly, Martha got up, pointed at Philip’s nose, and started cursing.

That look was simply fantastic!

Philip raised an eyebrow, stared at Martha coldly, and said, “What are you doing?”

With that, Martha’s next words were stuck in her throat.

She froze for a few seconds, then immediately shouted unreasonably, “What do you mean? Just lookat my daughter. Since she married you, has she been leading a good life? This is the second time. Areyou deliberately trying to make her miscarry? Could it be that the child is not yours?”

Martha came here today fully prepared.

Her objective?

Simple.

Philip scrutinized Martha and said bluntly, “Just say what you’re trying to do with this drama.”

Martha glanced at Charles and continued her pretense. “I don’t know what you’re saying. What’s wrongwith me fighting for my daughter? Just look at her. Do you have a conscience? Now that she’s like this,doesn’t she need someone at home to take good care of her?”

When she said this, she winked at Charles repeatedly.

“Yes, that’s right.”

Charles immediately nodded in agreement.

“Of course, I’m right. Wynn is my daughter. Who else better to take care of her?” Martha continued andasked Charles again, “Charles, don’t you think so?”

Philip glanced at Wynn on the hospital bed, and Wynn also shook her head helplessly.

The two of them had already figured out Martha’s motive.

“Mom, what do you want?” Wynn asked.
