“Mr. Luther, this is a very good bottle of scotch whiskey and I’ve always been reluctant to drink it. I brought it along today for you to try it.” Bernard signaled the waiter to bring over the bottle. It was exclusively produced and one bottle was worth 180,000 dollars! Bernard personally filled Hoyt’s glass and raised his glass in a toast. “The moment I saw Director Luther, it felt like I was reuniting with an old friend. Let me propose a toast to Director Luther!” After saying that, Bernard immediately finished the contents in his glass in one gulp and turned his glass upside-down to show the crowd. Everyone applauded and shouted, “Deputy Chairman Johnston can certainly hold his liquor well!” After three rounds of toasting, Bernard sat down contentedly and went straight to the point. He said, “Director Luther, I wonder if Martin Pharmaceutical still has a chance to cooperate with your chamber of commerce this time?” Hoyt had been waiting for the other party to broach the
Everyone raised their eyebrows and saw a few people barging in at the door of the private room. Philip was naturally in the lead with his hands in his trouser pockets. His expression was indifferent as he stared at Liam coldly. Liam was instantly furious. He slammed the table, got up, and shouted, “Philip Clarke, why are you here?! Who allowed you to barge in? Get out! Can’t you see that we’re hosting an important guest?” Liam was full of anger, especially when he saw Philip swaggering in with a bunch of people. He felt extremely upset! What was this guy going to do? Was this a place he could barge in at will? Bernard was also startled. He raised his eyebrows and said to Philip, “Philip, don’t you think you’ve gone too far? We did nothing to offend you today. By barging in like this, do you still have any respect for me?” Bernard shouted with coldness in his eyes! Philip had repeatedly foiled his plans and even beaten up his second brother like that. Bernard was still fru
Philip sneered as his eyes swept over the angry Bernard and Liam. Then, he pulled over a chair and sat down before ordering the waiter to prepare a set of cutleries for him. He started to eat the food calmly as he said, “Aren't you supposed to discuss cooperation with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce? Go on, continue your discussion.” Hearing this, Bernard was stunned and a little confused. He frowned and asked, “What do you mean by that? What does my discussion with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce regarding a cooperation have to do with you? Don't think that just because you know some people you’re invincible. This is Uppercreek, and Director Luther is the one in charge of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. Who do you think you are? Get out of here!” Bernard was already controlling his patience and temper. He dared not go too far with Philip and only wanted to drive him away. However, the next scene caused Bernard and the others to pop their eyes wide open. It shocked them
Hearing this, Bernard’s face was grim. He stared at Philip and asked gruffly, “What exactly do you want?” Philip stood with his arms folded and said with chills in his eyes, “You don't have many chances left. If not for the sake of my father-in-law and Wynn, you and Martin would have already died a hundred times. Bernard, go back and tell Martin not to try to retaliate against me or the people around me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!” After that, the entire private room fell quiet. Everyone dared not make a sound. Bernard’s face flushed as the corners of his eyes throbbed with anger. Philip was too arrogant for words! “Hmph! Philip, don’t think I’ll be afraid of you because of your threats! Just you wait. I’ll make you kneel and beg for mercy someday.” Bernard waved his hand and left with his people. Liam and Jacky Cullen sent Bernard off at the entrance. The two exchanged glances, and Jacky said angrily, “Manager Johnston, should we just let this go? Ph
More than 20 minutes later, Philip arrived at the entrance of a company called Joey Brewery. Just as he was about to enter the door, he was stopped by a few security guards. “Hey, what are you doing here? This is a distillery, not a wine shop. No visitors are allowed. If you want to buy alcohol, go to the shop at the front. Hurry up and go away!” Several security guards said in a huff. At this time, Philip’s face was full of anger and his tone was cold, “Tell your boss to come out here!” “Our boss? What are you trying to do? Who are you to tell him to come out? Don’t look for trouble or we’ll break your legs, you hear?” the security guards said. Philip could not be bothered to talk to them and was about to barge in when he was stopped by the security guards again. Philip said angrily, “This is none of your business. Move aside!” “Oh?” The few security guards got angry when they heard that. Where did this cocky person come from? “Are you tired of living? Do you know
Before Joey could say anything, Otis laughed smugly. “That’s right, I’m the one who did it! What can you do about it?” Joey frowned. Otis was really brainless. What if Philip had a recorder on him or something? Otis sneered as he knocked the steel baseball bat in his hand and said, “Damn it, you're lucky you didn't burn to death. How dare you come here? I’m telling you, don’t f*cking think of stepping out of this door today. I’m going to kill you right here!” When Otis said that, the 20 to 30 thugs around were already eager to make a move. At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed past! Before Otis could react, Philip was already in front of him. He jumped and kicked Otis right in the face! Otis immediately flew out and slammed into the back of the office door before he fell heavily to the floor. He covered his mouth, coughed hard, and spat out two front teeth. Everyone was stunned! Philip lifted his foot, patted the dust off his pants, and said coldly, “If you want to
Philip smiled and said, “Whether it’s a bluff or not, you’ll find out soon enough. I advise you to take this opportunity to kneel and apologize for your crime. I might consider granting you a way out. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll have to spend the rest of your life in prison.” “Oh? Haha, you stinking brat, still pretending to be cocky, aren’t you? Do you think you can scare me? And you even want me to spend time in prison?! You think you’re so awesome, huh?” Otis said. Now that the boss was in Philip’s hands, he dared not move recklessly. As soon as the boss was out of danger, he would definitely kill Philip the first chance he got! Philip sneered and slowly sipped on his tea. Joey was in an awkward position. As Philip was sitting and the position was fairly low, he could only squat next to him because his neck was being grabbed by Philip. The sight of him like this was too lowly. Joey Cullen was about to go crazy with anger! Joey Brewery was considered one of the three large
“Where did the dirt on your hands come from? Manager Cullen, don’t tell me you fell into the mud? Philip asked coldly. Jacky was instantly flustered and quickly defended himself, saying, “Chairman Clarke, I tripped and fell down just now.” “If you fell, why isn’t your body dirty?” Philip said. “This…” Jacky stuttered and could not complete a full sentence. “Let me tell you what happened, Manager Cullen. This is the dirt from the vase which you threw from the window, wanting to smash it over my head, right?” When Philip said this, his voice sounded like muffled thunder and the cold light in his eyes kept flickering. Jacky fell on his knees with a loud thud! “Chairman Clarke, I was wrong! Please have mercy on me. Joey, help me plead with him!” Jacky said to Joey. His cousin was his last ray of hope. Joey frowned, took a deep breath, and looked at Victor, saying, “Victor, we’ve never crossed paths before today. You’ve now captured my cousin and brought so many people to caus
