Chapter 111

There was a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties behind Martha. She was very fashionably dressed, a little on the plump side. She had a red LV

bag, a jade bangle, a gold chain, and even a stylish older-lady perm.

Everyone could feel her aura the moment she walked in. She oozed luxury!

second older sister, Philip and Wynn’s second aunt. Her name was Paula Yates,

Paula had a daughter who married a rich husband. The man had his own company and good connections in society, so Paula’s social status rose accordingly. Life was pretty good for her now. It was obvious in the way she dressed. She reeked of money. It was as though she wanted to wear all

my, isn’t that my dear nephew-in-law, Philip Clarke? How are things for you these days? I hear you’re doing food delivery now. How much do you earn every month? Are you still staying in that tiny 800-square feet house? When are you going to get a bigger place? If you’re out looking, you can ask our Richard.

With that thought in mind, she gave Philip a look of pure irony too. Philip Clarke was seriously such a waste of space. Even his mother-in-law wanted to get rid of him. Martha’s heart brightened once she saw that her sister looked displeased. It was rare for her to get an upper hand over Martha, so she immediately pulled Juan over and said, “Why are you just standing there?
