Philip knew they would not believe him, so he purposely said that.

Sometimes, people would not want to believe the truth. Martha did not say anything. It was unclear what she was thinking about. Then, she said in a commanding tone, “You don’t need to go to Wynn’s grandfather’s birthday that’s happening in two days.
