Philip called out to Victor and the rest, saying, “Everyone, things should be settled now. Since Mr. Randolph Harrison will surely abide by the rules, he won’t make things difficult for Miss Lee anymore, right?” Philip looked at Randolph after saying that. Randolph’s face was already red with anger! He snorted angrily and said, “Of course. It's not your place to tell me what to do!” Philip nodded. “That’s good to hear. Everyone, let’s continue to have fun.” Then, he walked out with the rest. At this moment, Pete, the foreigner, suddenly rushed over and grabbed Philip's shoulder! “What are you doing?” Victor yelled. Pete's eyes were cold as he said bitterly, “It's not over yet! You can't leave. Let's play another round.” Philip asked, “Why should I? I’ve already won back all the money owed by Miss Lee. There’s no need to continue, right?” “No way!” Pete's eyes were now bloodshot like he was a wild beast in a frenzy! He was a gambling master! He had never met his
“How... How did you know?” Pete’s face was pale. In a casino, it was the most taboo to cheat. However, the level of gambling skills was also equivalent to the level of cheating skills. If one cheated and was not caught or spotted by others, the person could be considered a true master. For a cheater, being caught meant losing a hand. Otherwise, they would be a true master! The foreigner’s cheating technique was actually not too bad, but it did not escape the eyes of Philip, who had been playing with top local gambling masters since childhood. Truth be told, such games were just a simple form of entertainment for magnates like the Clarke family! The Clarke family’s charity gambling gala! All the top domestic and international gambling masters would be invited to this event where everyone would use the money they won for charity. Since Philip was ten, he had mastered his skills in poker, dice, and pai gow, making him at the top of the country. If he wanted to win agai
Randolph’s face went red when he heard Victor say that. He was thinking inwardly that Victor had better not fall into his hands one day. Since the boss could no longer do anything, all blood drained from Pete’s face. Now, even if Philip really chopped his hand off, he could only resign to his fate! His life was over. He could only live as a disabled person with one hand in the future! Pete’s heart froze as he allowed Philip to press his hand down. Philip smiled at Pete and said, “Are you ready? I'll do it on the count of three! “One! “Two! “Three!” On the count of three, the knife in Philip’s hand fell from above! Yolanda and some of the women present covered their eyes. After all, this scene was too bloody. Argh! Immediately after, a scream from Pete was heard in the private room! Yolanda trembled all over. Although she was strong-headed, she was still a woman, after all. After a while, Yolanda slowly looked at the scene through the gaps between her finge
When Philip returned to the hotel, it was already late at night. The door of the hotel room was left wide open, seemingly waiting for Philip to return. It was a suite. When Philip walked into the living room, he saw Martha sitting in a wheelchair. Her face was full of anger. “You piece of sh*t! You’re getting bolder now, huh? How dare you hang up on me?! Who gave you the right?” Although Martha could not stand up or hit Philip, she still had a sharp tongue. She immediately started cursing. Philip did not want to kick up a fuss with her either. He was most worried about Wynn right now. “Mom, what’s wrong with Wynn?” Philip asked. Martha said with a huff, “You still dare to ask? Just now, Wynn received a phone call and her face suddenly changed. She started crying not long after she went to her room. What the hell did you do to her, huh? You punk, don't think that just because you're the boss of some small investment group that you can bully my daughter! She's pregnant now!”
“Hey, what does he mean by that? Oh, I can’t even scold my son-in-law now, huh?” Martha was annoyed. If not for her disability, she would have rushed up to him and given him a few earfuls! At this time, Wynn was still sobbing in the room. “Wynn, what’s the matter with you?” Philip knocked on the door and asked softly. Wynn’s sobs in the room stopped abruptly. After a short while, she choked up and said, “Who told you to come back? I told you not to come back.” Her voice sounded as if she was suffering a great grievance and it caused Philip a lot of distress. “Will you open the door? Tell me what happened after you open the door,” Philip said and comforted Wynn. “I don’t have anything to tell you. You can continue being lovey-dovey with that Bernice woman,” Wynn said with a tear-stained face. Her head was in a mess right now. Did Philip really cheat on her? Was he keeping a woman outside? They had not even resolved things with Chloe Sommerset. Although the other party
After speaking, Wynn cried out in agitation, her voice getting louder and louder. The First Palace held many of her and Philip’s memories. She still remembered when Philip bought her the diamond ring for the first time. She still remembered the wedding photoshoot with Philip there. She also remembered witnessing Philip’s changes along the way. However, now everything had changed and became out of control. Beacon Group was in complete control of the two uncles. Everyone on the board of directors had been changed to their people, and even the security personnel in the villa had been replaced. In short, Wynn and her family had no place to return to in Riverdale now. Moreover, the second uncle, Martin Johnston, also filed a lawsuit against Wynn’s family. He was accusing Wynn of embezzling company funds to purchase the First Palace in Longford Park. The board of directors then made the decision to officially dismiss Wynn. On the other hand, the third uncle, Bernard Johnsto
Philip raised his eyebrows, stared at Martha, and said in a grim voice, “Martha, since you’re not well enough yet, you shouldn’t swagger around too much. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that you can return to Riverdale in one piece.” After saying that, Philip turned around and left the suite. Martha was instantly angry and pointed at Philip's back as he left. She yelled with a face full of hatred, “Charles Johnston, just look at Philip Clarke! What does he mean by that? Huh? He’s not even treating me as a human being!” Philip left the suite and came to the hotel lobby. He dialed Theo Zander’s phone number and his respectful voice sounded from the other end. “Mr. Clarke, how may I help you?” “You’re not in Riverdale?” Philip asked coldly. Theo quickly replied, “Yes, Mr. Clarke. Something has happened in the Penhart Region. The last chamber of commerce caused an adverse chain reaction. Several forces are eager to destroy the chamber of commerce alliance that you finally managed to
Philip just glanced at him without shaking hands and asked Lynn instead, “Your new boyfriend?” Toby’s hand froze in mid-air as he narrowed his eyes a little. He smiled awkwardly and withdrew his hand. Lynn, on the other hand, looked at Philip smugly and said, “Yes, how about it? My boyfriend is a band three lawyer with an annual salary of ten million dollars! He runs a law firm and is famous in Riverdale! He even has friends in Uppercreek!” When Lynn said this, her face could not contain her triumph like a child eager to show off her toys. Philip frowned and looked at Toby, who was still smiling faintly. However, Philip had caught the chill in his eyes just now. Hehe, he wanted to see what kind of a person this lawyer was. “Tell me why you asked me to meet up,” Philip asked as he settled into his seat naturally. Lynn tilted her head, looked in the direction of the door, and asked, “Why isn’t Wynn here?” “She’s not feeling well. I’m here on her behalf. You can talk to me
