Chapter 154

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
Back to Philip. After he got out of Juan’s mansion, he got into Theo’s car and drove to George’s place.

“Old Man George, it’s so late. Why are you here?” Philip sat on the soft sofa and savored his wine.

George walked in front of Philip respectfully and bowed. He said, “Young Master, I’m sorry. My mistakes have caused you to suffer unredressed injustice.”

Philip replied indifferently, “Old Man George, don’t do this. It’s nothing. Tell me, what’s wrong? Why are you so anxious to see me?”

George pondered for a while and answered deferentially, “Young Master, Miss Sommerset will be coming to Riverdale in a few days.”

Clank!

The room plunged into dead silence.

Philip’s wine glass was suspended in the air. After a long while, he placed it on the marble coffee table that was adorned with gold lining. His face looked glum.

His eyes looked lifeless. He looked as if he had something on his mind.

After a long while, Philip asked while lifting his eyebrow slightly, “Why is she coming her

    Swoosh!The door opened to reveal Philip standing there.Martha’s expression froze. Then, she said curiously, “Aren’t you in jail? How did you get out?”Philip smiled and said, “Mom, I didn’t break the law, so naturally they let me out.”At the same time, Wynn heard Philip’s voice and ran out. She hugged Philip and wailed.Philip consoled her. “It’s alright now. I’m fine. See, I’m here now.”Everyone sat together in the living room.Martha and Charles sat on the sofa. Their eyes were piercing and they looked angry. They stared at Philip like they were going to interrogate him.There was an old man next to Philip. It was George.Martha started at George, looking annoyed, “Philip, who is this old man? How can you bring strangers into my house?”Martha did not like this old man’s outfit. He was old and wearing a suit. He was also holding a black hat that she had never seen before. There was a grin on his face.It was obvious that he was not an honorable person.No wonder Phili

    “Oh, um… Mr. Thomas, please don’t misunderstand. Please don’t mind me. I’m just a wretched old woman. I was just babbling before. Please don’t take my words to heart.”Martha was frantic, but she was excited. She got up and went over to brew some tea and cut some fruits. She wanted so badly to give George all the best food in her home.George just smiled lightly. He said courteously, “You don’t have to do that. I’m just driving little Philip home. I’ll get going now.”“It’s nothing, it’s nothing at all. It’s such an honor to have you in our house, Mr. Thomas. Please have some, these are the fruits I just bought today. This is also the best Maojian tea. I won’t even be willing to drink this usually.”Martha’s attitude did a 180 change. She was eagerly attentive to George.She even interrupted Charles when he wanted to say something.“Sit there and read your newspaper,” Martha scolded Charles before turning around and looking at George like he was a national treasure. Her eyes were

    This was Martha’s true self. She would reach out her hand and ask for money like it was the most natural thing to do.She was a woman with no shame.Philip was dumbfounded. He did not know what to say, so he looked at Wynn instead.Wynn walked over and said coldly, “Mom, what are you doing? Even if Philip has that money, we can’t give it to you. It’s for Mila’s treatment.”Wynn knew Philip’s personality. He must be saying that he had one million bucks to deal with Martha.However, he did not expect his mother-in-law to ask for the money.When Martha heard that, her face fell. She got up and started making a ruckus. “I never said I won’t use it to treat Mila. I’m just gonna keep this money for you and you can ask for it from me when you want to use it.”Wynn was furious. She would not give her the money no matter what.Martha did not even care about Mila. It would be hard to get the money back from her when she got her hands on the money.Martha turned her head to look at Phi

    200 million? Derrick almost fell down from his chair.“Director Stanley, are you sure you’re not joking? It’s obvious that the terms in this contract are more beneficial to Beacon.” Wynn felt like she was dreaming. This was unbelievable.Director Stanley smiled and said, “Miss Johnston, we’ve already signed it. What else are you worried about?”Wynn looked over and the contract was indeed signed. It was also stamped.This meant that as long as Wynn signed it, the contract would be in effect.It seemed like Philip and Professor Turner’s relationship was not that simple. There must be something she did not know.She had to go back and ask Philip.Recently, Wynn realized she understood Philip less and less. He had changed too much.When she thought about that, Wynn lifted the pen and was about to sign.However, at this moment!The door of the meeting room was opened. In a flash, eight bodyguards in suits barged in and stood at the door.An elegant woman with a strapless lon

    After that icy woman left the meeting room, everyone still could not calm down.Wynn’s face was burning. She did not even know who that was.However, it seemed like she knew Philip.Derrick looked apologetic. He said, “Director Stanley, I’m sorry about that. Um, about our collaboration...”Director Stanley smiled and tried to soothe the awkwardness. “Of course there’s nothing wrong with the collaboration. We can just…”Before he could finish, Director Stanley’s phone rang.After he answered the call, Director Stanley said a few things before his face fell. “Alright, I got it.”“What’s wrong, Director Stanley? What’s going on?” Derrick could read the changes in Director Stanley’s face.Did something happen?“I’m sorry, Mr. Hall, Miss Johnston. We have to stop this collaboration. I don’t really know the details. I have to go back and discuss this further with Director Turner. I’m sorry.”Director Stanley said that and left with his people. There were now only Derrick and his

    Lynn was panicking. She stomped her feet and grabbed Philip’s arm. She said, “Philip, tell them if this is real or not. No, you have to call Theo now and tell him to come here!”Lynn was starting to throw a tantrum.She had never been suspected like this before, so of course she was feeling unhappy.However, Philip shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, I don’t know any Theo Zander. Lynn, did you make a mistake?”“Hahaha!”Laughter immediately erupted.Lynn’s face went red. She could feel the detest coming from her friends.She felt like a featherless chicken that was standing in front of everyone naked. She was being criticized and shamed by everyone.“Lynn, that’s enough. Your brother-in-law has already said that, so stop lying to us already. We won’t laugh at you.”“Your brother-in-law is an honest man. He’s not that much of an idiot it seems.”“That’s enough. We’ll just go and have fun ourselves.”Her friends left while laughing.Lynn was livid. She turned around angrily

    She was panicking!Martha was beyond frantic now. She hurriedly took out her phone with trembling hands and took a photo.She wanted to save some evidence so that she could go back and ask Philip.Naturally, Martha was suspicious of Philip’s identity now.How could a spineless coward get into the same luxury car as the richest man in Riverdale?Martha could not understand this. She turned around and left.When she got back home, she told Charles everything. “Charlie, look at this. Is this Philip?”Charles was fiddling with his birds. He put down the birdcage and put on his presbyopic glasses to take a look. He said, “Why did you take his picture? Are you still following Philip?”Charles was shocked. What was wrong with his wife?She was even using such cheap tricks to stalk him?Martha glared at him and smacked him on the arm. She said, “Look at the person next to him!”Charles was curious. He looked closely and exclaimed, “Is… Is that George Thomas?”Martha nodded and sat

    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. Just stay home.”Martha’s father would be celebrating his 70th birthday the day after tomorrow. She did not want to bring this cowardly man over.If not, she would be shamed endlessly by her family members from her maternal home.Plus, the old master had always been unhappy about Wynn’s marriage. Would she be congratulating her father or infuriating him by bringing Philip back?Philip expected this, so he did not say anything. He took out a box from his pocket and said, “Mom, this is the gift I prepared for the old master.”Martha looked at the embroidered box on the table and murmured, “What’s this? The box looks so bad. Are you giving him something that’s only worth

    Philip did not intend to kill Tom. On the contrary, he wanted Tom to live well so that he could suffer in pain all the time. Philip smacked Tom's body several times. Tom felt something was wrong the moment it happened. He looked distorted as if he was controlled by someone. His body was also twisting in weird angles. “I’ve destroyed your practice. You can never regain your power even if the demons help you. What do you think of this reward?” Philip sneered at Tom’s twisted posture. Philip severed all of Tom’s veins and imprisoned him in the swamp so that he could suffer the erosion of the swamp day and night. He wanted Tom to watch over Marina's remains forever. “I don’t have any grudge against the merfolk. I promised to help you back then, but you were stupid enough to believe the words of a treacherous villain to the point of killing your holy maiden. This is really sad and ridiculous.” The merfolk had suffered a tragic end, which was pitiful, so Philip did not want to dwel

    “Chief, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and finish the ritual. Don’t let that guy get his way. We have to get back at him for his disrespect.” After saying this, Tom charged at Marina. He knew that he needed Marina’s blood to have a fresh start. At this time, Moray took out the merfolk's pearl. They hid the pearl very well and finally found it in the warehouse. Marina smiled in despair at the sight of the pearl. She obviously did not expect things to go so out of control. “Philip, I’m sorry to have wronged you earlier. It seems that you’re the only good person around. Everyone else has an ulterior motive and is always thinking about using me. In that case, I’ll do the last thing I can do to seek your forgiveness.” After saying this, Marina rushed to the pearl in Moray’s hand with sorrow in her eyes. Philip had a bad premonition and had a guess about what Marina was about to do. “Stop her!” Philip waved his hand, and everyone rushed over. Some people pinned Moray down

    Although Tom had been tortured beyond recognition, he was still rational and yelled out his plan. Moray was hesitant. He knew what Tom was referring to. The merfolk had a powerful secret technique to create an immortal body by merging the blood of the holy maiden with a powerful warrior of the family. Tom was in such a bad condition that he would be dead if they did not save him now. However, once Marina and Tom’s blood were merged, it meant that they would have to be together and never be separated again. Marina shook her head in rejection. Not to mention the damage it would cause her, but she did not want to share the rest of her life with Tom. No one could live an eternal life with someone they did not love. However, Moray had gone crazy. He was bewitched by Tom and only had victory in his eyes. Although Tom was in a bad state, Moray believed that Tom could turn the tables with a little help. With that thought in mind, Moray grabbed Marina and pushed her to Tom reluctant

    “Very well. I approve of this marriage. After you defeat Philip and return in victory, we’ll proceed with your wedding.” Hearing that, Tom sneered inwardly. He was an ambitious man. He was unwilling to let Moray control him. He planned to get the merfolk's treasure now. As long as he got the pearls from the merfolk and fish creatures, he could dominate the world with the treasures that could store energy, and everyone would have to bow down to him. He could force Marina to provide her blood and activate the pearl.When Marina was in despair, the mud that trapped Philip suddenly moved. Everyone was astounded by this scene. No one thought that Philip could survive. He was very strong, indeed. Before Tom could attack again, the swamp exploded. Tom was shocked. He had a bad feeling that everything would progress differently. Thinking of this, he kept attacking Philip with every means he had. However, it was futile. Philip easily broke through Tom’s defense and attacked him.

    Now that they had started fighting, it seemed that things would not end well. Moby had no idea whether he should root for Philip or not. “Philip, don’t give up!” After much deliberation, Moby finally decided to cheer for Philip. He stood a better chance to survive once Philip won. He would pay with his life if anything happened to Philip. Besides, he had just decided to join Philip when Philip generously rewarded him with some precious elf water, which proved that this was a boss worth following. He might get more benefits by sticking with Philip, so he did not want anything to happen to Philip. Meanwhile, Philip was stuck in the swamp. He was just about to break free from the swamp when he felt something strange. The swamp did not hurt him but strengthened his body instead, making his skin unusual. Philip already had a divine body, and combined with all the powerful pills and various herbs he had consumed before, his body was far beyond anyone’s imagination. It turned out

    “You want the merfolk's pearl, but the fish creatures haven't given it to me yet. I don’t have it right now. Even if you defeat me, what’s the point? The fish creatures can run with it while you’re distracted. It’ll be a waste of time for you to fight me,” Philip said. He was really worried about Tom’s IQ. He could understand if he attacked Moby instead. “The thing is in Moby’s hand, but you want to attack me instead of dealing with him. Is it because you can't get the woman of your dreams?” Philip had a sharp tongue, and Tom trembled at his words. Philip dared to humiliate him like this. However, Philip had a point. He should deal with Moby instead. He was just annoyed that his beloved Marina liked Philip. Tom was infuriated by Philip’s words and attacked him. He had to kill Philip at all costs and show Marina the scene of Philip's defeat. The two were quickly engaged in a fight, and Tom moved fluidly in this disgusting swamp. Philip maintained a superior position and foug

    “This is an agreement between me and Chief Moray. It’s not up to you.” After saying this, Tom took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. Philip thought Tom was going to attack him, but Tom used the dagger to cut himself instead, leaving everyone wondering what he was doing. After injuring himself, he took out a bottle of potion and poured it on the wound, which healed in a few seconds. Philip was surprised by the rapid recovery. The potion had to be a treasure. At this time, everyone realized that Tom's strength was increasing rapidly to the point of being daunting. Aslan stepped back cautiously, surprised by this unexpected turn. He had always been a fearless person, but he felt a sense of oppression from this weak person. It proved that the potion was powerful enough to pose a threat to him. Thinking of this, Aslan scowled and reached out for Philip, hoping that Philip could take care of it. After all, he and Lyle were equally strong. If he could not deal with Tom, Lyle

    “Tom, if you can take care of this matter, I’ll give you Marina’s hand in marriage. I’m sure the two of you can work together to lead the merfolk to glory.” Everyone was shocked, including Tom, who was in disbelief. No one expected that Moray would ask Tom to marry Marina. Even the fish creatures were shocked. Although they were enemies, they knew that Marina was the merfolk's holy maiden. Tom had been protecting the holy maiden over the years, so he was a servant without a doubt. It was ironic to hear that a servant was worthy enough to marry the holy maiden. Marina was shocked and subconsciously glanced at Philip, who was indifferent about it. After all, it was the merfolk's affairs, nothing to do with him. Philip would not bother even if Marina had to marry an old man. “However, you must prove your ability before you can marry my daughter. If you get the item, I’ll hand her to you.” Moray had been seriously injured before this and could no longer fight normally. The merf

    Philip took out a small bottle of elf water from his pocket and handed it to Moby. He wanted to see what the ugly creature would look like after taking the precious elf water. Moby was shocked to see Philip handing him some elf water and felt unworthy of it. At Philip’s insistence, he walked over and respectfully took the small bottle of elf water from Philip. He took a sip cautiously and wanted to marvel at its wonderful taste. Philip felt exasperated at Moby’s caution. Moby probably had no idea how Lyle and the others treated the water. They not only used it to bathe but also drank it casually like normal drinking water. Marina and the others watched with envy. They knew how precious the elf water was, so they were shocked by Philip’s generosity in giving it to the humble fish creatures. Even the merfolk found it difficult to get some elf water, but these lowly creatures got it. No one would be happy at this scene. Philip glanced at everyone. The other fish creatures st
