Chapter 63 Devious Man

His wife and daughter-in-law had gone out. Even his daughter had gone out. Only he and the servants were at home. Philip felt like an old child looking after the house, hence he wanted to go out and do something fun as well.

He took his time driving, wondering if he should go to his second brother’s farmhouse or third brother’s herb farm.

The car crawled like a snail to the gate, where the commotion was happening. That caught his attention.

When he saw the woman kneeling at the door and the man in the wheelchair, his relaxed expression became tensed and he froze slightly.

Upon seeing his car, the security team and the middle-aged man in the car became stern. The middle-aged man hurriedly got out of his car and walked over to Philip very carefully and respectfully.

“Mr. Lockwood.” He bowed slightly.

The man was a member of the country’s parliament and he held a pivotal position in it. Hence, he was a distinguished figure and highly regarded. In front of the Lockwood family, however, even he had to humble himself.

Philip rolled down the window and asked, “Are they here to cause trouble?”

The middle-aged man looked conflicted and answered anxiously, “Mr. Lockwood, they said that they were looking for their daughter. They said that their daughter is…”

Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, Philip said angrily, “What daughter? That’s not their daughter at all!”

The middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief. He knew it.

At this moment, Philip said somberly, “That’s my daughter-in-law!”

The middle-aged man instantly lost his footing and almost fell.

He looked at Philip in shock. “Mr. Lockwood, this…”

He was flabbergasted and in disbelief. How could the daughter of this scheming and money-sucking commoner marry into the Lockwood family?
