Chapter 142

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
Patrick stood up abruptly from his chair. His eyes were wide open and his breathing was rapid.

Who could have a bank balance of one hundred billion?

Not to mention, that person had shown up at his small little branch!

If he could get even a hundred million worth of financial investment, he would no longer have to work throughout the year!

Moreover, there was a chance he would get promoted to become a branch president the following year!

In the case that this big customer pumped in money into his branch, his performance for the year would skyrocket!

It just so happened that a few days ago, during a meeting at the head office, his branch had been specifically criticized for poor performance in terms of customer deposits. They were in last place compared to all the other branches!

Patrick had been very troubled by the matter.

If it continued, he would be fired as the branch manager!

Without thinking twice, Patrick trotted out. “Quick, take me to him!”

When he arrived i

    Philip hurried to explain, “Wynnie, you’re overthinking it. Maybe there’s something wrong with the card. I’ll be back soon.” Patrick was a smart man and caught on immediately. He said, “Madam, please don’t worry about it. We’ll be back soon. I won’t take up too much of Mr. Clarke’s time.” When Wynn heard his response, she could not say anything else. Hence, she nodded. Philip followed Patrick to the VIP room and took a seat on the cozy sofa while Patrick made him tea. Patrick was still astonished by Philip’s young age. He was a big customer with a balance of a hundred billion after all! The richest man in the country had a net worth of only slightly more than a hundred billion. However, that included the assets of the man’s company. As for Philip, he had a hundred billion in personal savings! It was simply too inconceivable! ‘For him to be so wealthy, he has to be the offspring of a hidden family.’ “Mr. Clarke is so young and talented. I wasn’t expecting you to be so

    Such a man was simply the prince charming of every woman! His wife was too blissful and fortunate. The bank teller on duty felt envious as jealousy began to well up in her. “Hurry up with the process. I have to go grocery shopping with my wife,” Philip said calmly. Patrick was taken aback. Nevertheless, his face had a bright smile on it as he instructed Yolanda to process the transaction on the spot. Philip only needed to provide them his ID card to authorize the transaction. That was the so-called VIP treatment! One billion in deposits! It was an accomplishment that Patrick never imagined he would achieve in his lifetime! With such an achievement, the following year’s branch presidency would definitely be his! “Mr. Clarke, your wife is very fortunate indeed to have a husband like you,” Patrick complimented. Philip merely responded with a faint smile. After everything was done, he left. When Patrick returned to the main lobby, he explained to Martha, “Auntie, I’m

    At this time, Juan was in the private room. He held the phone in his hand with a cold expression on his face and said, “Make sure nothing goes wrong. Otherwise, you won’t get a single cent!” Juan had prepared for this very night for a long time. He would not allow anything to go wrong. He had to take Wynn away and get rid of Philip tonight! “Mr. Parker, don’t worry. With me, Al Hopper, everything will go smoothly.” Lewd laughter was soon heard from the phone. Juan frowned and said coldly, “Just do your part and don’t bother about anything else.” He did not like Al’s tone. The guy was famous for being a pervert, but Juan had to use him because of how reliable he was. At this moment, the door to the private room was pushed open. Soon after, Philip and Wynn entered. Juan quickly hung up the phone, stood up, and greeted them cheerfully, “Wynn, you’re here.” When Juan saw Philip, the smile on his face froze. He said icily to Philip, “Philip, just take a seat anywhere.

    Upon hearing the unpleasant words of the crowd, Philip’s face darkened along with his frown. Al was extremely annoyed with Philip’s indifferent and innocent look. Hence, he kicked him again, pointed at his nose, and said viciously, “D*mn brat, couldn’t you have found another woman? There are so many women in the red light district, but you touched mine instead. Are you trying to court death!” Philip’s eyes were full of daggers. He glared at the sobbing woman next to Al and said coldly, “Tell them that you’re the one who broke into the room!” Tears were running down the woman’s face as she cried miserably. She pointed at Philip and retorted, “Big Al, he’s spouting nonsense. He couldn’t stop staring at my legs just now and said... he said my *ss is perky and would love to get on with me. When I was in the bathroom, I wasn’t expecting him to pounce on me and grab me from behind. He then dragged me into this room. I… I was nearly…” “You’re still trying to put on an act?” Al fumed a

    In the villa, Theo was having a discussion with a few of his henchmen. When Nino Gil was uprooted previously, Theo had been unable to swallow such a big piece of cake at one go. Hence, he had to discuss the matter with his brothers. After all, there were too many venues to handle, and they were related to too many interests and connections in the background. At this moment, when Theo saw the panicked Tiger rushing in, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why are you so flustered?” “Theo, Mr. Clarke has been arrested.” Tiger was sweating profusely as he spoke, “I just came back and overheard that Mr. Clarke was arrested at Concord Hotel.” Theo stood up abruptly, his face full of anger. “What? How could he have been arrested?” “It seems that he molested a woman and was caught red-handed. However, according to our men, that woman belonged to Al Hopper, a small-time gangster,” Tiger explained. “Al Hopper?” Theo looked puzzled but said domineeringly, “I’ve not even heard of him an

    On the top floor, in a room several hundred square meters wide, there was a huge electronic display screen. George Thomas bent over from his waist and stood in front of the screen. His stature was respectful as he faced an old man sitting in a wheelchair; the man in the wheelchair had a breathing mask over his face. “Old Master, Young Master is in trouble.” George’s voice was trembling as he spoke. On the screen, the old man merely raised his hand slightly and moved a few fingers. Only then was an old and weak voice heard, “Don’t be too ostentatious. Let Reed handle this matter.” “Yes, Old Master,” George acknowledged respectfully. He paused for a moment before asking, “Old Master, do we need to let Young Master know about the matter with Miss Sommerset?” A moment of silence ensued. The old man sighed and replied, “That girl is simply too arrogant. Let Phil handle the matter on his own, cough, cough…” The electronic screen turned off; George turned around with Julian an

    Juan grinned broadly, leaned back into his chair comfortably, and said leisurely, “I’m not asking Captain Fuller to do anything against the law. Just let him stay inside for a few more days. He has violated the law after all. We are merely enforcing the law strictly and fairly, don’t you think so, Captain Fuller?” Juan chuckled as his face showed an expression of triumphant success. Next to his wife, Brian Fuller was a loser. That was his weakness. Brian considered it for a moment before nodding in agreement. “Okay.” Ten minutes later, Brian finished sorting out the documents. He headed to the director’s office, knocked on the door, and entered the room after getting a response. At the time, Deaton Wade, Director of the Riverdale Law Enforcement Bureau, was busy handling official matters. He was a good public servant of the people, working late hours into the night. “Brian, why are you here so late?” Deaton greeted him in a friendly manner. Holding up his teacup, he ble

    “Director Wade, this old man shall thank you then. Next year, I plan to invest in the construction of a police school to support the social development of Riverdale,” George said. Gulp! Deaton was dumbfounded! A police school?! It was shocking! Too astounding! “Thank you for your great support toward our work! I’ll handle the matter personally. Please wait for a moment, and I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory answer!” Deaton hurriedly thanked George before hanging up the phone. He then took a long breath and recovered from the shock. Afterward, Deaton hastily donned his hat and prepared to go out. Apart from excitement, there was also anger! To have randomly arrested the young master of Mr. Thomas, his men were too reckless! At this time, the phone on his desk rang again. Deaton was already very anxious. He grabbed the receiver and asked impatiently, “Who is this? Can’t you call back later?” His tone was extremely unfriendly. Unexpectedly, a cold snort cam

    Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.

    It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not

    Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S

    “Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family

    “Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited

    Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting

    Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think

    Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass

    However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
