Wynn was at the hospital, asking everyone virtual-novel.net could find if they knew any famous doctors or could lend virtual-novel.net any money.
It was all to no avail, though.
Her classmates left virtual-novel.net in the wind at times like these.
Even virtual-novel.net close friends were nowhere to be seen.
After all, they were scared.
They knew that virtual-novel.net had a useless husband.
Who would lend money to a household like that? They would never see the money back again.
While Wynn was feeling sorry for herself, virtual-novel.net phone rang with a notification.
It was from virtual-novel.net cousin, Lynn.
She tapped on it and saw that it was a video, plus a voice message.
Before virtual-novel.net clicked on the video, virtual-novel.net tapped on the voice note first. Lynn’s somewhat panicked voice came across the speakers. “W… Wynn, did you see the video? Do you know what your husband does for a living?”
Wynn frowned virtual-novel.net pretty brows slightly.
She did not really understand what Lynn meant, so virtual-novel.net clicked on the video.
The video was crystal clear. It was obviously Philip!
Fancy Jaguars!
Several dozen bodyguards dressed in black suits!
That man in the white suit treated Philip very respectfully.
The more virtual-novel.net watched, the more surprised and shocked Wynn felt!
Was that really virtual-novel.net husband, Philip Clarke?
That useless wimp who took all that shade without ever saying a word in return?
Who were these people, and why did they treat Philip like a god?
All of a sudden, Wynn did not recognize Philip anymore.
After a moment of confusion, Wynn immediately gave Lynn a call, saying hurriedly, “Where did you take this video? What’s the meaning of this?”
When Lynn received virtual-novel.net cousin’s call, virtual-novel.net retorted with a question, “Wynn, do you know what Philip does for a living?”
“What do you mean, what virtual-novel.net does? Who are those people? Did virtual-novel.net offend someone? Wait right there, I’ll be there in a second!”
Wynn was in a complete panic now. She thought that Philip was in trouble and had been kidnapped.
How else was virtual-novel.net supposed to explain this video?
She did not dare to entertain any other possibilities, because they felt impossible to her.
“I don’t know either. He seems… He seems to have changed,” Lynn said with a stutter.
She did not really understand either.
He had always been a spineless coward who never said a word out of place. Why was virtual-novel.net suddenly so respected by so many?
By a mob boss like Theo Zander, too.
It was just inexplicable.
Wynn was beside herself with worry, and virtual-novel.net pestered Lynn to tell virtual-novel.net what happened. Of course, Lynn hid a lot of details. After all, virtual-novel.net owed virtual-novel.net a hundred thousand. If virtual-novel.net parents found out about that, things would definitely turn ugly for her.
After virtual-novel.net hung up, Wynn hastily gave Philip a call. She was bordering on hysterical now, virtual-novel.net brow tightly furrowed and virtual-novel.net nerves etched into virtual-novel.net face.
It was a familiar tone.
However, no one picked up.
She tried again!
Still no one picked up.
Wynn was properly panicked now. Her heart leaped into virtual-novel.net throat.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net had not yet realized just how virtual-novel.net worried about Philip virtual-novel.net was.
The call went through!
“Wynn? What’s the matter? Why did you call me five or six times?” On the other end, virtual-novel.net heard Philip’s somewhat lazy drawl.
Wynn felt virtual-novel.net heart settle back into virtual-novel.net chest when virtual-novel.net heard that familiar voice. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Where are you?”
Philip could hear that Wynn was worried, so virtual-novel.net said with a laugh, “What’s the matter, Wynn? Why are you so nervous?”
“I asked you a question. Where are you?” Wynn asked again coolly.
Philip told virtual-novel.net a lie. “I’m doing my delivery rounds, of course.”
Wynn’s face frosted over the moment virtual-novel.net heard Philip lie. “Come to the hospital. I need to talk to you.”
‘Well, well, Philip Clarke. So now you’ve learned to lie to me.’
Would virtual-novel.net need a Jaguar to do his deliveries?
Would virtual-novel.net need a couple dozen bodyguards?
Wynn was quite unhappy right now, so virtual-novel.net simply hung up.
After that, virtual-novel.net lay on the hospital bed in a huff, already running through ten thousand reasons to start a fight with Philip.
She picked up virtual-novel.net phone, watching the video over and over again.
Wynn was perplexed. It did not look like Philip had made enemies virtual-novel.net should not have. They did not seem to be taking virtual-novel.net away by force.
In fact, it looked more like they were respectfully inviting virtual-novel.net into the car.
Theo had his back turned to the camera, so Wynn did not recognize him, and Lynn did not tell virtual-novel.net either.
