Chapter 1600

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
“How do you know about the trump card in my hand?” Martin’s face was stern.

Russell smiled lightly and said, “Mr. Johnston, I have to apologize to you about this matter. I accidentally overheard some of the things you and Vice-chairman Johnston talked about in the company that day.”

Martin’s face trembled as he recalled what he had discussed with Bernard in the company the other day, which indeed involved his trump card.

On the side, Jacky suddenly shouted at this time, “Mr. Johnston, look! This Russell Carl actually dared to eavesdrop. He must’ve been sent by Philip. I think such a person must be driven out!”

However, Martin directly interrupted him and asked Russell with a smile, “How much did you hear?”

Russell replied, “About Chairwoman Wynn Johnston’s background, that’s all.”

Martin’s face darkened. He thought about it and finally said, “Very well, then. I’ll leave this matter to you and Jacky. I hope the two of you won’t let me down.”

Russell stood up and said, “Tha

    Philip looked at Bernard coldly, took the envelope from his hand, and opened it in front of him. After just two glances, the expression on Philip's face quickly turned chilly. His eyes soon became colder than an abyss! This… This was… He looked up, abruptly grabbed Bernard by the collar, and shook the information in his hand while shouting coldly, “What is this? Are you using such dirty methods to frame Wynn? Don’t think that I can be fooled this easily!” Bernard sneered and said, “Do you think this is made up? What if I tell you that it’s true?” Hearing this, Philip was startled. Bernard took the opportunity to shake off Philip’s hand and adjusted his necktie. He said coldly, “Philip, the Johnston family has kept this a secret for more than 20 years. We never planned on announcing this, but if you insist on opposing us, then this secret will be spread all over Riverdale! When that happens, you can surely imagine how Wynn will end up. I hope you think about it. No hurry, we

    “Oh, he’s not really a wimp. He’s just too good to Wynn and prioritizes her. We made the right move this time and struck where it hurts the most!” Martin laughed as he spoke, his face full of triumph. “By the way, Martin, how are we going to deal with those business partners?” Bernard asked. With two beauties in his arms, Martin said with a smile, “No rush. Let Russell Carl and Jacky Cullen handle them.” “Russell Carl and Jacky Cullen?” Bernard was full of doubts and said, “Martin, these two are rivals yet you’re actually letting them handle this? Aren’t you looking for trouble? No way, I need to personally watch over things.” “That’s enough. Bernard, just think about it. Since these two are rivals, it stands to reason that they won’t be able to tolerate each other and will certainly do their best to get the credit. Moreover, it’s also mutual supervision. If someone does something wrong, do you think the other person will let him off?” Martin said with a smile. This was som

    Looking at the information in his hand, Philip took a deep breath before he said with a smile, “Nothing, it’s just a casual call.” Wynn did not think too much about it. After a few words with Philip, she hung up the phone. She turned around and returned to the living room of the suite, feeling a little restless. She could not help feeling that Philip was hiding something from her, and it was related to her. “Sister Wynn, what are you thinking about again? Come on, I saw a bigger mall nearby. Let’s go for a walk. It’s so boring to stay indoors all the time,” Lydia suggested expectantly. She was someone who could not sit still. She might go crazy if she were left indoors for one day. As for Anne Foster, she was tidying Wynn’s room and said with a light laugh, “Miss Wynn, I think Lydia is right. You should walk around more and get some fresh air. It’s good for you and your baby.” Wynn nodded. She was also a little antsy and said, “Okay, let’s go out for a walk then.” When

    Wynn, Anne, and Lydia arrived at the largest shopping mall nearby. Lydia appeared to be very energetic. She went to all the baby specialty stores and bought a lot. She seemed to be enjoying this shopping spree. Wynn teased, “Lydia, those who don’t know might think it’s you who’s having a baby.” Lydia turned her head, stomped her foot, and said, “Sister Wynn, you only know how to laugh at me.” Wynn laughed while holding her waist. The two walked into a spice store. Outside the door, Victor Bell had arranged four bodyguards to accompany them. After entering the store, Wynn began to carefully select the spices. She was now quite interested in these. Suddenly, a beautiful woman dressed cleanly and neatly approached Wynn, saying softly, “Miss Johnston, hello.” Wynn was taken aback. She turned to look at the delicate woman who was selecting spices. She was around 1.7 meters tall with a ponytail and a black trench coat. Wynn asked suspiciously, “Do you know me?” The woman, w

    The young man named Shane Lovelace grinned and said, “Of course, I plan to bring my cousin back to the Lovelace family. The surviving bloodline of the Lovelace family must go home and acknowledge our heritage.” When Shane said this, his eyes flashed with ferocious coldness. Coupled with the smile on the corner of his mouth, he seemed very scheming. Cleo scowled and said, “Shane Lovelace, I’m warning you! Dad let us out just to get in touch with Wynn, not bring her back. Don’t try to ruin his plan. Otherwise, I’ll report to him right now!” Cleo was angry. This younger brother of hers was always like this. Shane shrugged, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, “I know that. We’ll go along with whatever you say, okay? By the way, have you checked her information?” Cleo nodded and said, “Yes, she was adopted by Uncle’s former friend, Charles Johnston. Her husband is Philip Clarke. There’s not much information about him, except that he has a notorious reputation in Riverdale.

    After two minutes of silence, Charles could not help asking, “I heard you went to the mall just now?” Wynn nodded and responded, “Yeah, I went out for a walk. It's boring to stay inside all the time.” “Yes, it's good to go for a walk.” Charles nodded and drank a cup of tea. They fell into an awkward silence again. Wynn looked at Charles and saw that his face seemed full of thoughts. She said with a smile, “Dad, what exactly did you want to see me about? If there’s anything, just say it. I'm your daughter. There’s no need to hide things from me.” When Charles heard the word ‘daughter’, it touched him greatly. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, “Wynnie, how do you think your mother and I have been treating you?” Wynn was startled, not expecting her father to ask such a question so abruptly. She smiled, took Charles’ slightly rough hand, and said, “Dad, what are you talking about? The two of you are my parents. Of course, you’ve been good to me. Although

    Suddenly! Charles shouted coldly, “Enough! What are you saying in front of our daughter? What are you trying to do?” Charles was furious. Martha almost had a slip of her tongue and let the cat out of the bag. She was taken aback as well. Realizing that she had almost said something she should not have, she quickly said in a huff, “I don't care. When I recover from my injury, I’ll make you divorce Philip!” Wynn was also powerless and just said, “Okay, please leave now. I want to rest.” Only then did Charles glare at Martha and push her wheelchair out. In the other suite, Charles was furious and cursed, “Just look at you! Weren’t you the one who told me not to say anything earlier? Look at what you just did? You almost let it out!” Charles was so angry that he slapped the back of his hands. Martha sat in the wheelchair in annoyance and grumbled, “I didn't mean to. If you hadn’t mentioned it to me in the first place, I wouldn’t have almost said it.” Charles was helpless.

    Crash, bang, boom! Shane smashed the front desk angrily, causing the attendants to scream in fright. After a bout of wrecking, Shane adjusted his suit and took out the photo again. He grabbed the hair of a squatting female attendant and asked harshly, “Tell me which room she’s staying in!” The female attendant shuddered in fear and stammered, “No... I-I don’t know.” “Don’t know? Interesting.” Shane smiled and kicked the female attendant away. Then, he picked up the golf club and walked to her one step at a time. He pointed the club at her head and said coldly, “I’m asking you again which room she’s in. If you don’t tell me, your pretty face will be ruined.” The female attendant was scared out of her wits. Looking at the burly guys standing behind Shane, she swallowed and said tremblingly, “Room… 1808.” Shane smiled, dropped the club in his hand, and leaned down to pat the female attendant's cheek. He said with a smile, “Well done, that’s more like it. Thanks.” After th

    Other members of the family had been so pampered that no one could fight Ronan either. All of them were sent flying, and some of them hung on the tree miserably. Philip laughed at the scene. These people had always treated Ronan as a pushover when, in fact, Ronan was a force to be reckoned with. None of them was a match for him. “I know that other than my uncle, some other people were also involved in harming my mother, but I don’t know who they are. You'd better hand them over or no one will leave this place alive today.” Ronan’s killing intent was very intense. He was clearly very angry. Everyone panicked and looked around carefully, at a loss for what to do. They saw the fear in each other’s eyes. The family head had taken Ronan's uncle and some other people to a city. It was difficult for them to find a decision-maker when the elders were not around. The instigator from back then was not around either. Who else could they look for? “Calm down. This matter has nothin

    Ronan’s uncle did not hesitate to force his elder sister to her death just to kick the most promising descendant out of the family. This grudge was unforgivable. Everyone laughed at Ronan’s audacity to seek revenge. Only a fool would dare to do that. “Do you know how powerful your uncle is?” “Although he’s not here now, he’s not someone you can afford to mess with.” Everyone mocked Ronan without taking him seriously at all. “Did you hear what I said?” Ronan scowled. These people kept disregarding his request and paid no attention to him. He felt very upset. “Since you won’t hand him over, I’ll beat you until he appears. If he’s not here, other people can take his place.” He knew that his uncle was quite powerful and would often go to other towns or cities for networking. While it was true that he might not be around, it did not mean that Ronan would not make trouble for the others. Everyone looked at Ronan arrogantly, waiting to see what Ronan would do. Suddenly, Rona

    The guards were taken aback by Ronan’s sudden arrogance and looked at him doubtfully. “What’s up with you? Do you want to take action?” “After all these years, have you finally decided to avenge your mother?” They kept taunting Ronan without realizing how angry he was. “I repeat—I want to see the people who forced my mother to her death back then!” Ronan stomped his foot in anger and glared at everyone around him. The guards were startled because they finally felt Ronan’s strength with that stomp. They did not expect him to be that strong. Maybe because of Ronan’s fury, they finally realized his might and quickly scrambled into the manor. Philip saw the name on a plaque—Claude Manor. The place looked pretty imposing, and Philip felt a stab of longing as he looked around. Philip stood without a word. His main objective was to help Ronan. The guards ran away in a panic. They knew that Ronan was going to make things difficult for them. “It’s bad. Ronan is at the door

    The man could not resist because he was alone. Next time, he would bring more people to deal with Philip. Philip saw his resentment but took no notice of it. No matter how much he resented Philip, he would not survive tonight. Such an arrogant and domineering person would not live to see the sun tomorrow. “Y-You hit him?” Ronan looked at Philip in disbelief, shocked that Philip would stand up for him. Although he usually appeared simple and kind, he was not a fool. He knew that Philip hit that guy to protect him. “If you meet such people again, just fight them and don’t worry about unnecessary things. You don't want to fight because you’re afraid of losing the right to enter the town, but you’re my brother from now on. “I can take care of your wine supply, and we can find other ways to make money. You don’t have to waste your efforts and live under someone else's roof anymore,” Philip said arrogantly, not taking these people seriously at all. Hearing that, Ronan nodded with

    A man stepped forward at this time. “Ronan, have you completed your task? I have another task for you. Hurry up with it! I want you to hunt a thousand rabbits, and I’ll pay you one crystal for them. What do you think?” He had a smirk on his face. He was clearly trying to rip Ronan off. Ronan frowned. “Based on the market price, you should pay me at least ten crystals.” Hearing that, the man was unhappy. “That’s the price for a human. Who do you think you are? Giving you some money is good enough for you!” Ronan clenched his fist, and the man stepped back. “What are you doing? Do you want to pick a fight here? Once you make a move, someone like you will lose the chance to enter the town again! And you can forget about getting another task!” the other party threatened Ronan fearfully. He knew that Ronan was very powerful, but he had a good temper, so everyone always bullied him. “Is there a rule in the town that prohibits fighting?” Philip asked curiously. The smirking ma

    Ronan and Philip moved forward and finally arrived at the human town. Philip looked around curiously and found that it was a large city. Humans had done quite well in developing a city. “If you’re not happy with this place, you can consider going to the city in the west. You can find many human territories nearby. I don’t know why humans are unwilling to live together but prefer to build cities everywhere!” Ronan was not human, so he could not understand it. “Although my mother is a human, I’m not. I only remember living in that hut since I was born. No other race is willing to accept me, including humans.” Ronan was embarrassed because he had scales on his body that were clearly visible at sea but not so much on land. Humans were unwilling to classify Ronan as a human because of that. Philip nodded, surprised to hear his pitiful plight. Not only did he not have his own race, but his mother’s race was unwilling to acknowledge him too. “That’s awful. Why don't you join u

    “This is it, crystal! This little stone can get me a big bottle of wine! Since I’m lucky enough to meet you today, I’ll give it to you!” Ronan clearly had no concept of money. Philip took the stone from Ronan’s hand and found that it was no different from an energy stone. He tried to return the stone to Ronan, who rejected it. “I don't have much concept of money, but I know that money is indispensable if you want to go to the place where humans live. Just take it. I'm afraid that you’ll be detained if you don't have money. I was detained once before!” Philip was touched by Ronan’s words. He took out a bottle of wine from the space ring and handed it to Ronan. Although the wine was nothing to Philip, it was a rare treasure to Ronan, who had never tasted good wine. “What’s this?” Ronan curiously took the bottle of wine that Philip handed to him. He put it to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and was soon bursting with excitement. “This is good stuff! Do you want to sell it to m

    “You’re not from a big family? In that case, how did you become so strong at such a young age?” Ronan looked at Rabbit in surprise too. “I thought you were from a big family, one of the best! After all, only such families have the power to capture summoned beasts for their descendants!” Obviously, Ronan had misunderstood Rabbit’s identity. Rabbit blinked blankly, wondering what Ronan was talking about. “Summoned beast? I'm not a summoned beast; I'm just an ordinary rabbit!” Seeing Ronan’s confusion, Rabbit smugly introduced himself. Although he had no idea what a summoned beast meant, it did not sound imposing, so Rabbit did not like it at all. Ronan was startled to hear that Rabbit was not a summoned beast but a creature with intelligence. He felt very powerful. “Indeed, he’s not a summoned beast but my pet. You can think of him as my partner. I’m more curious about this place.” Philip was puzzled, wondering what was going on in this world. He had not seen any towns so f

    “This is the survival of the fittest! We were much stronger than them, so they were at our mercy, just like how we’re at your mercy now!” Someone stepped forward, his voice trembling as if he wanted to rebuke Philip. Seeing his timid appearance but bold attempt, Philip sneered, “In that case, I’m stronger than you, so there’s nothing wrong with killing you. You should pray that I won’t kill you in the cruelest way possible.” Philip raised his sword and killed the fish creature who voiced up. Any sign of weakness and these people would think they had a chance to survive. Ronan applauded Philip’s decisiveness and quickly joined the battle. Philip smiled at Ronan’s excitement. He simply wanted to vent. Over the years, he had been working so hard for his family and their future that he had almost lost sight of himself. He realized that maybe he should live for himself from now on. He wanted to become stronger and dominate the world. He knew that this was a real world. Although
