Hiss! Everyone gasped. Philip was simply too cocky! In ten minutes, he wanted Fabian Tate, who was worth more than 60 billion dollars to be penniless? Who did he think he was? Could a multi-billionaire go bankrupt with just a sentence? Ridiculous! Was he crazy? Mike was also shocked by Philip’s tone. However, he quickly reacted and said with a wicked sneer, “Philip, you’re really arrogant to say such things. I really wonder where your confidence comes from.” Hehe. By the looks of it, this Philip Clarke was nothing but a moron. Herb also scowled, saying, “Chairman Clarke, it seems that you still don't know much about Mr. Fabian Tate’s strength. Barring anything else, let’s just talk about your company. As long as Mr. Tate is willing, he can instantly purchase it in full. If you know what’s good for you, you should quickly sell it while Mr. Tate is still in a good mood. Otherwise, if he gets angry, he has all the means to make your company go bankrupt!” Philip smile
Fabian Tate was playing golf and in a very happy mood. He turned his head to look at his assistant, asking, “What’s the matter? Why the panic?” The assistant hurriedly said, “I just received a call from the company saying that all of the shipments we shipped abroad are facing problems. They’ve been temporarily detained!” Hearing this, Fabian’s face twitched as he asked suspiciously, “How could that be? Didn't you contact them in advance?” The assistant said, “We did as usual. There shouldn’t be a problem. This time, the other party personally checked our goods, not the person we usually liaise with.” Fabian scowled and said, “Don’t panic. Pacify the other party first and find out about the situation. It could be just a last-minute random inspection. In addition, notify the company's public relations department to deal with the impact of public opinion regarding this matter.” While saying that, Fabian took out his phone and said, “I’ll give Mr. Cash a call to ask about the sit
However, it was just ten minutes! Scary! Simply terrifying! What kind of strength was this to have such earth-shattering means? Fabian was flustered and terrified beyond belief! He hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Mike Corby’s number, his heart utterly desperate! Inside the general manager's office of Gopher Delivery Services, Mike and the others were looking at Philip and Agnes with grim faces. “Hehe, Mr. Clarke, in less than ten minutes, Old Master Tate will acquire your company by force. When that happens, you’ll be less than nothing,” Mike sneered, his eyes full of triumph. It was tragic to think that he needed to ask a figure like Old Master Tate to deal with a young man like that. However, all was well. Doing this would settle the problem by its root once and for all! Herb also smiled coldly and said arrogantly, “Agnes, it’s still not too late for you to regret this. As long as you’re willing to be my lover, I’ll put in a good word for you in front of D
What was going on? Did Old Master Tate just apologize to Philip? How could that be? Who was Old Master Tate? He was a figure who could shake the entire Riverdale with a single stomp of his foot! Would he actually apologize to such a nobody like Philip Clarke? Shocked! Total panic! Mike’s face and forehead dripped with cold sweat. His throat tightened, and he felt like he was about to suffocate! Philip smiled lightly and said, “Fabian Tate, this wasn’t what you said earlier. What made you change your mind so quickly?” Fabian was terrified and quickly said, “Chairman Clarke, I was wrong before. I was ignorant and blind to have looked down on others. I beg you to spare me. Whatever you need, I’ll agree to it.” Hearing this, Philip thought for a moment. His eyes fell on Mike and the rest as he said, “Okay, there’s one condition. I want Mike Corby to kneel and apologize to me right now. How about that?” “Of course.” Fabian said, followed by a roar through the phone,
Theo respectfully invited Philip into the car and the convoy drove straight to the hotel where Martin Johnston was staying. Meanwhile, in the hotel. The two Johnston brothers, Martin and Bernard, were having private talks with several key members of the company. “What? The person you found has failed?” Martin looked furious at this moment, pacing back and forth in the suite in anger. Bernard stood to the side with his head lowered. His face was full of anxiety and regret. He said, “Martin, don't worry about it. Even though it failed, Philip won’t dare to do anything about it.” Hmph! Martin snorted and said, “What should I say about you? How many times has this been? Can’t you find someone more reliable? Why do you fail again and again?” Martin almost died of anger. His third brother had gone behind his back to find some hooligans to teach Philip a lesson, but in the end, they were the ones badly beaten up instead! This fool only knew how to bungle things up! Bernard c
When Jacky Cullen saw this scene, the corners of his eyes twitched with dissatisfaction. He finished his red wine in one big gulp. Damn that Russell Carl for stealing the limelight again! “Jacky, what’s wrong? Are you also upset with that hypocritical act of Russell’s?” On one side, another middle-aged man nudged Jacky with his elbow and asked. Jacky snorted coldly and said, “I just can't get used to the way he looks. It’s as though everything is within his calculations.” “Hehe, I share the same thoughts as you. Russell Carl is our enemy. With him around, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to get any credit in front of Mr. Johnston,” the man took a sip of red wine and said. Jacky frowned, clenched his fists fiercely, and said, “One Russell Carl is not enough to pose a threat.” “Jacky, I have to disagree with you on this. Now, Mr. Johnston has attached more importance to him compared to you. If we don't do something, I'm afraid it won't be long before Russell will drive all of us
Looking at the casket Philip had brought over, Martin shook with anger as his face flushed red. He pointed at Philip and shouted, “You! How dare you act so arrogantly?! Are you disrespecting me? Philip Clarke, don’t forget that I’m Wynn’s second uncle! We’re related by blood! If I tell Wynn that you did this to me, do you think she’ll stand on your side or mine?” Martin was fuming. How dare Philip send him a gift like this? Was this not cursing him to die soon? Bernard also looked angry as he pointed at Philip and shouted, “Insolence! Philip, as a junior, what’s your intention in sending such a gift to your elders? If my eldest brother and sister-in-law find out about this, they’ll definitely punish you severely!” Bernard’s eyes were cold, and his face was full of anger! This damned Philip was too audacious! When the others saw Philip giving such a gift, they were also taken aback for a brief moment. Then, they pointed at Philip and berated angrily, “Chairman Clarke, this is
What did he mean by that? Would he dare to do anything to him? “What do you mean?” Martin asked warily. Philip chuckled and said, “Martin Johnston, my decision has never changed since the beginning. Since you’ve chosen to be Beacon and Wynn’s enemy, you should’ve gotten prepared for my retaliation. As for that secret in your hands, leak it out if you have the guts. Do you dare to make a bet with me? As long as you dare to expose the secret, I’ll kill you!” Martin froze, stunned by Philip’s indifferent appearance and calm attitude. The look in his eyes was terrifying. It seemed that as long as he leaked it out, what awaited him would be death! Hmph! Bernard snorted coldly, pointed at Philip, and shouted angrily, “Philip, don’t be arrogant! Are you treating us like pushovers who’ll be intimidated by a few words? We now own Martin Pharmaceutical and have so many talents. Can you really compete with us? Besides, even if we expose the secret, so what? Do you really dare to k
At this time, Cameron and his men returned in the middle of the night. He saw the Claude family members crying as soon as he returned. They were bruised and battered from a beating, looking utterly miserable. Cameron was furious that someone would dare to bully his family members while he was away. “What's going on? Why are you in this state? Did someone cause trouble while I was away?” Cameron was angry and in disbelief, feeling that something was strange. Everyone nodded nervously. “Ronan is here!” The old woman who suffered the worst beating was very upset and glared viciously in Ronan’s direction. “Cameron, although you left me in charge while you were away, I can’t do it anymore. Ronan kept messing with us and even brought some people to beat us up!” The old woman made up stories and described Ronan as an unforgivable evildoer. Cameron scowled, but he could not believe it. “What did you say? Ronan actually hit someone?” He was unwilling to believe it. Although Ronan
Philip took out some fine wine, which was worthless to him but priceless to Ronan. Ronan laughed at Philip’s nonchalance and patted his shoulder. The two of them sat down and started drinking. Rabbit joined in the fun and swallowed the wine in big gulps. Although the alcohol content was a bit high for Rabbit, he enjoyed it happily. They quickly felt slightly tipsy. Although they were practitioners, they did not use any techniques to sober up. It was okay to be a little intoxicated as long as it did not affect them too much. It was rare to find a friend who they could click so well with, so it was a blessing to get drunk together. As they drank happily, the aroma of the wine wafted out. Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked for the source of the scent. They quickly found Ronan's residence and scowled. That smell proved that he had to be drinking good wine in there. “How is he worthy of such fine wine?” “Just a whiff of that wine clears my head, so it has to be good s
Although victory was not confirmed, they had to take part. Since the other party said so, they had no choice but to win. At the thought of the other major families, Cameron scowled as he felt the pressure. “I heard that you have a non-human descendant in your family,” the other party said with a smile, but it was uncertain if his intention was to mock Cameron or to find out some information. The Claude family scowled as they instantly figured out who the other party was talking about—Ronan. This person had disgraced the whole family. “We do have someone like that in our family. Back then, one of our youths was restless and impulsive…” Cameron wanted to explain, but the other party interrupted him. The mysterious man smiled with satisfaction at Cameron’s admittance. “If that’s the case, it’s great. Let this person take part in the competition. I’m interested in his strength and want to try it out in person. “Other than your victory, this person has to take part in the comp
By treating Ronan badly, the people would receive some rewards from the higher-ups. After a while, everyone got used to it. Even the wine sold to Ronan was cheap wine that no one wanted. “There’ll be a place for me in the world somehow!” Philip shook his head. These people’s attitude was strange, indeed, but he did not think that they could not find a roof over their heads. Since the Claude family was so arrogant, they could take over their place. Thinking of this, Philip took them back to the Claude family's manor and knocked on the door with a smile on his face. The guards were horrified to see Philip and Ronan again. They did not forget how badly they were beaten earlier. Thus, no one dared to stop them from marching in for fear that they would be beaten again. They could not afford the consequences. The Claude family quickly learned about their appearance. They scowled, their faces turning ashen. “Why are you here again?” “We already told you that they won't be ba
Even though everyone was angry, they could not help but taunt the culprit. The cowardly man coughed at their sarcastic remarks. “Let’s wait until the family head returns tomorrow. I don’t believe Ronan will be so arrogant when he’s around!” After saying that, he ran to his room and hid, unwilling to say more to the others. Ronan did not know what happened back then. As long as he refused to admit it, he believed that Ronan could not do anything to him. It was a conspiracy against Ronan’s mother back then. If the family head refused to protect him, he would tell Ronan everything to save himself.… After Ronan left the luxurious manor, his mood instantly became better. He never thought that he would do something so spectacular one day. “Thank you.” Ronan lowered his head to Philip humbly. He was grateful to Philip and wanted to pledge brotherhood with Philip. Philip waved his hands awkwardly, surprised by Ronan’s courtesy. He did not do much; he just gave him some confiden
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
