S2 18. Philip and Barbara’s Deal

“As soon as you arrived at the emergency room, your mother went berserk. She asked all the doctors to check your condition. Many people immediately gathered and covered their noses.”

Seeing Philip frown, Barbara clenched her fists. “You are lying! My mother couldn’t embarrass me.”

Philip shrugged his shoulders lightly “What else can we do? Your mother was too panicked. And you know what?”

He smiled crookedly again. “Your mother announced to all the medical staff that you were in emergency because you took the wrong medicine. The funny thing is… when the test results came, the doctor concluded that you had taken too many laxatives. Everyone suddenly failed to hold back their laughter.”

Barbara gaped in disbelief. From her limited angle, she glanced at the couch. Only Melanie’s legs were visible.

‘Mom can sleep well after causing such a stir?’

Barbara closed her eyes holding back annoyance. Slowly, she turned her back to Philip. She had lost her face in front of the man.

“As I remember, it was really funny. Moreover, the nurses who took care of you looked disgusted. I can imagine how tormented they must have been while cleaning you up.”

“You!” Barbara turned around with a grimace. “Once again you mention it, I will really kill you. And if that news reaches Louis and Emily’s ears, you will go straight to hell!”

Philip stifled his laughter. However, his eyes were still teasing. “That’s even more impossible. I’m a good person. I can’t possibly go to hell.

On the other hand, you and your mother should be alert. Repent before it’s too late.”

Barbara’s tears began to gather. She couldn’t hold back her anger any

longer.

Realizing that, Philip quickly raised his finger. “But if you ask me nicely, I can keep it a secret.”

Barbara felt at ease a little, but the frown on her face remained unchanged. “Are you serious?”

Philip nodded casually. “Yes. Try asking me nicely. Use the words please and thank you.”

Barbara fell silent for a moment. As her lips opened, her tongue had difficulty forming words. “Please… don’t bring up tonight’s incident again, especially in front of Louis and Emily. Thank you.” Her voice was broken and soft.

Philip smiled proudly. “Good. I promise not to tell this to anyone, including the twins, as long as….”

Barbara widened her eyes. “You dare give me conditions?”

“Shh!” Philip pointed his index finger again. “Listen first! Or I don’t want to keep this incident a secret. Do you like being a trending top with the hash tag stinky?”

Barbara hissed. While closing her eyes, she cursed incoherently. He head jerked against the pillow.

“Fine.” She finally opened her eyes again. “What are the conditions?”
