Chapter 577

Mila hid behind Anne when she saw Martha’s raised hand.

Philip ran over quickly and kicked Martha on her back heavily.

“Ouch!”

Martha yelled in pain. Then, she fell forward and landed on the floor.

“Who’s that? Do you want to die?”

Martha was lying on the floor face down. Her nose was broken. She yelled while turning around andholding her nose.

However, when she saw the person standing behind her, she shuddered.

Oh no, it was Philip!

Oh no!

Last time, he taught Joel a lesson right here in this living room.

Martha started trembling when she recalled what had happened last time.

Philip was livid. He bared his teeth as he glared at Martha. Then, he turned around and walked to Mila.He asked while squatting down, “Are you okay? Did Grandma hurt you?”

Mila was terrified. When she saw her father, she jumped into his arms and bawled. “Daddy, boo hoo…”

Philip was heartbroken. He could not distinguish the flames of anger in his heart.

He lifted his head and looked at Anne. He noticed that her hands and chest were red. It was obviousshe was burnt.

“What happened?”

Philip asked in a frigid tone.

Anne wanted to conceal the truth. She peered at Martha and forced out a smile. She said, “It’s fine. Iaccidentally burnt myself.”

Martha sat on the floor while holding her nose. Her eyes were darting all over the place. She wasworried that Anne would expose her.

When Anne said that, she let out a sigh of relief. However, she was not grateful for Anne’s kindness.She scolded in her heart, ‘You vixen, why are you pretending to be a good samaritan? Wait till I get myhands on you!’

However…

Mila said in a childish voice out of the blue, “Daddy, Annie didn’t burn herself. I saw her crying.”

Mila was not an idiot. She was smart.

However, she did not dare say that it was Martha out loud.

When Philip heard that, he was devoured by flames of rage.

Wynn walked over hurriedly and held Mila. She scowled at Martha who was still sitting on the floor.

If she had not seen it for herself just now, she would not believe that her mother would dare to do justabout anything.

Wynn was so disappointed.

Wynn wanted to say something when she saw Philip walking over to Martha. However, she stoppedherself.

Philip approached Martha and lowered his head. He asked in a cold voice, “Martha, did you forget whatI warned you? You keep challenging my limits. Do you really think I won’t do anything to you?”

Martha was petrified. She was shaking, especially when she saw the aura of death in Philip’s eyes.

“What? What? You’re just a good-for-nothing, Philip. Will you kill me?”

Martha did not care anymore. She yelled while rolling around unreasonably on the floor, “I’m yourmother-in-law! How dare you treat me like this? I don’t like you and I don’t like your cheap daughter! Sowhat if you’re rich? Your property rights have been taken away, so you’re just a loser now! What rightdo you have to be so aggressive with me?”

After Martha finished yelling, she was still angry. As such, she decided to kick Philip.

However!

Slap!

Philip slapped Martha heavily across the face.

“This is for bullying Mila!”

Martha clutched her face and looked at Philip in disbelief. She got up from the floor and wanted tocharge at Philip hysterically.

However!

Slap!

Philip swung his hand at her again. The sound reverberated across the hall!

“This is for bullying Anne! I’m telling you right now that I’m taking Anne as my sister. If you dare to bullyher again, this will not be the only thing you have to suffer!”

Slap!

When Martha wanted to say something more, Philip slapped her again.

“This is from me to you. I endured all of your abuses back then, but tonight, I’m telling you that if youdare to cross me again, I will make you regret it, Martha!”

Martha was in a state of shock after the three slaps. Her ears were also buzzing.

She looked at Philip with wide eyes and a gaping mouth. He was too savage!

How dare he hit his mother-in-law!

“Philip, are you crazy? How dare you hit me over an outsider?”

After Martha came back to her senses, she yelled hysterically. She was on the brink of a breakdown.

She glared at Wynn angrily and shrieked, “Wynn, are you going to watch as your mother gets beatenup? You thankless wench! You’re siding with an outsider!”

Wynn was standing at one side with a frigid expression on her face. She said, “Mom, you wentoverboard. This is indeed your fault. Don’t look at me, I won’t help you.”

Martha exploded.

She had raised her daughter for more than 20 years. Now, she was siding with Philip, the useless bum.
