Wynn stepped down from the bed and walked toward Philip’s black jacket.
The ringing continued to sound in the ward.
Just as Wynn picked up the jacket and was about to take the phone out, Philip suddenly walked in and snatched the jacket from virtual-novel.net hand. Then, virtual-novel.net smiled calmly. “I’m going out to answer the call.”
After saying this, Philip turned away and walked out of the ward.
He took out the phone and had a look at it. It was Wynn’s number!
He could only hang up.
That was too dangerous!
At that moment just now, Philip felt like virtual-novel.net had gone to another world. His forehead was covered with cold sweat.
It was still not a good time to tell Wynn about his identity.
It was not that virtual-novel.net deliberately wanted to conceal it, but if Wynn came to know about it, she, Mila, and even the entire Johnston family would be in danger. Only Philip himself was aware of this danger.
Philip had seen that woman’s tactics.
During the time when virtual-novel.net left his family, that woman had more or less been pushing things around behind the scene.
In the ward, Wynn folded virtual-novel.net arms while listening to the tone from the phone. Her brows furrowed. ‘Could it be that virtual-novel.net has something to do?’
She made another call but was informed once more that the receiver’s line was busy. Feeling helpless, Wynn could only give up with a sigh of relief. After all, it was still slightly difficult for virtual-novel.net to beg others.
At this moment, Philip walked in and said, “There is something urgent at the company. They need me to go back.”
Wynn did not mind as virtual-novel.net was feeling irritated and just nodded a few times in response.
Mila’s surgery could not be delayed any longer.
Hope could not be placed on only Juan. If worse came to worst, Wynn could only rely on him.
However, before Philip left the ward, virtual-novel.net said lightly, “Wynnie, don’t worry. I will arrange Mila’s surgery. I have contacted a well-known doctor in the country and they have also given a treatment plan. In these next few days, it’ll…”
“Okay, I got it.”
Wynn immediately interrupted Philip with a cold face. It was not that virtual-novel.net did not believe Philip, virtual-novel.net just wondered if the doctor virtual-novel.net found was useful or not.
Philip was stunned, even looking a little uneasy.
Wynn seemed to have become aware of the issue with virtual-novel.net attitude and explained in a slightly irritated tone, “Philip, don’t get me wrong. Thank you for your concern about Mila. I’m just… I’m just a little frustrated.”
Philip naturally understood Wynn’s current feelings.
“I understand, Mila is also my daughter. If you have any ideas, you can discuss them with me.” Philip smiled.
Wynn smiled back at virtual-novel.net too. She nodded and said, “Alright, isn’t there something that your company needs you with? You should go and settle it.”
Philip nodded. As soon as virtual-novel.net turned to leave, Martha rushed in angrily.
Without saying anything else, virtual-novel.net came up, pointed at Philip’s nose, and cursed, “Philip Clarke, how did you talk to me just now? Have your wings already hardened? Is that why you did not even put me, your mother-in-law, in your eyes?”
He was really going against the sky!
This piece of trash son-in-law also dared to yell at virtual-novel.net now.
As a mother-in-law herself, had virtual-novel.net not become so undignified?
He must be punished!
Philip also knew that virtual-novel.net would not get good things from Martha if virtual-novel.net offended her, so virtual-novel.net could only bow his head and admit his mistake. “Mom, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have treated you like…”
“What’s the use of saying sorry now?”
Martha was uncompromising and unforgiving. Her face was full of sarcasm and anger. “Both of you should talk now about when you’ll be getting your divorce.”
Divorce.
Again, divorce.
Philip was really annoyed. His expression had changed slightly.
Wynn, who was at the side, walked over as well and gave a helpless sigh. She asked, “Mom, what’s wrong with you again? Causing trouble here early in the morning… Can’t you just let me have a quiet time?”
Wynn knew virtual-novel.net mother’s temper quite well.
Causing trouble unreasonably as well as throwing tantrums childishly were virtual-novel.net ultimate skills.
She had never truly treated Philip as virtual-novel.net son-in-law.
Everything was because Wynn had a premarital pregnancy with Philip, causing virtual-novel.net to be shamed by virtual-novel.net family. It was because of this that Wynn and Philip moved out and bought a small apartment for themselves to stay.
On usual days, everyone just complied with Martha. Even if virtual-novel.net was being unreasonable, everyone would just endure it.
“What do you mean I am making trouble? Don’t you know? This trash dared to scold me outside just now!”
Martha stretched out virtual-novel.net hand and pointed at Philip’s nose. “I don’t care what both of you think. In this family, virtual-novel.net and I can’t coexist.”
Wynn felt helpless. She gave Philip a look and pretended to scold him, “Philip, how did you speak to my mother just now? What are you waiting for? Quickly apologize!”
Philip did not know what to do, so virtual-novel.net bent down and apologized, “Mom, I’m sorry.”
At this time, Martha was like a big, victorious rooster with virtual-novel.net chin held high. She continued to scold a few more curses at him.
Philip also continued to apologize a few more times. Only then was virtual-novel.net able to leave.
