“Yes, Philip Clarke is nothing but a fraud! I've asked around and he's a notorious loser in Riverdale! Mr. Holmes, don’t be fooled by him!” Clara added. Rowan disliked the arrogant attitude of these two people but their words were not entirely without reason, so he confirmed with his staff. “Is it true that this gentleman said he wants to buy all the clothes here?” This time, he directed the question to the young lady who seemed more honest. She just joined not long ago and would not lie. The young lady nodded nervously. Mr. Holmes’ expression darkened a little. He took a deep breath and calmed the anger in his heart. He had started to believe that Philip was nothing but a liar. It was ridiculous enough that someone from that family would come to this store to buy clothes. Now, he even wanted to buy out the entire store. Was this young man not deliberately messing around with them? However, an experienced businessman like Rowan Holmes was still very cautious. Without causin
The transaction was successful! Those staff who looked down on Philip just now were all dumbfounded and shocked! The payment… went through! Henley and Clara were also stunned, their faces filled with incredulity! How could this be? Philip actually paid for it and Wynn had entered the password! This was simply unbelievable! Was Philip not a loser who married into the Johnston family? Clara’s heart was in turmoil now and she was feeling very upset. A man she hated bought all the clothes in the shop for the woman she loathed the most. Wynn even knew the password to the bank card! She was jealous and envious! Even Mr. Holmes was trembling at this moment because he understood what that card in Philip’s hand represented! This was a bank card exclusive to the Clarke family. The identities of those who can use this card were definitely not something a small potato like him could comprehend. Now, such a person was in his shop. He was excited but panicking at the same tim
This annoyed Henley. He immediately took out his phone and yelled, “Very well, Rowan Holmes. You’re just the owner of a luxury clothing store and you dare to challenge my father? I’ll let you die without knowing how you died!” After saying that, he directly dialed his father's number and shouted anxiously, “Dad, come quickly! Your son is about to be killed!” On the other end of the line, a gruff male voice sounded. “What's going on? Whoever dares to lay a hand on the son of Bo Dill must be tired of living! Who’s the other party? Did you mention my name?” Henley quickly said, “Dad, I did. I said I’m the young master of the Dill family and my father is Bo Dill, but the other party doesn’t respect you at all. He even said you wouldn’t dare to touch him on his territory.” “What? Who dares to be so cocky? Son of a b*tch! Tell me the name of the other party and the address. I’ll meet him in person!” Bo was furious. Henley said, “Dad, the other party’s name is Rowan Holmes, he—” H
Upon hearing Philip’s words, Henley and Clara’s expressions looked very unpleasant. When they saw Philip’s indifferent eyes, they felt as though they were being targeted by a beast. Too scary! The look in Philip’s eyes simply made people uncomfortable. Henley was flustered because his old man had told him to kneel and apologize just now, but he lied and said that his father would come to stand up for him. Thus, he was scared. However, he was also very indignant! On what grounds could a loser be so arrogant? “You have a little money in your hand so you think you can act pretentiously, huh? Fine, if you can subdue me today, I’ll kneel in front of you!” Henley said to Philip haughtily. He wanted to perform well in front of his new girl, Clara Nolan. Maybe she would be happy and agree to go to a hotel with him tonight! It was just a million dollars, right? He totally did not put Philip in his eyes at all. Philip smiled lightly and said, “It seems that your family is q
Henley got a shock and quickly said, “Dad, what’s wrong? I didn’t cause trouble. Someone else messed with me.” “How dare you ask me what’s wrong? Do you know that someone seized our mine just now? It’s all because of you!” Bo roared. The mine was seized? Henley’s heart jolted as he asked in a hurry, “Dad, don't joke with me. How could our family’s mine be seized? Don’t you have someone above you?” “This is something I should be asking you. Do you know that you’ve caused a terrible disaster? Who did you offend outside? Why did the Uppercreek General Inspection team suddenly mobilize its people to search us? They even said you messed with some young master of the Clarke family and searched our entire mine. Now, the factory has stopped production! You’re such a prodigal son! Do you want to kick me into my coffin before you stop?” Bo said, almost dying of anger. Henley was in a panic now. The family’s mine could not be seized. Otherwise, where would his future monthly allowances
Henley was flustered. The coal mine was seized? If he continued to stay here, would he not be seeking death? After thinking about it and dwelling on it for about ten minutes, Henley said smugly, “Hmph! Only a fool will stay here and wait with you. I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.” After that, Henley quickly dragged Clara with him to leave. If he did not leave now, everything would be exposed. However, Rowan signaled with his eyes, and the four burly bodyguards at the door grabbed Henley and Clara by their arms, shoving them back. Due to the force, Clara fell to the floor and her butt was in pain. She shouted, “Ouch, you guys must be f*cking blind! Henley, just look at them! They simply don’t respect you. Regardless of anything else, you’re still the young master of the Dill family in Uppercreek!” Henley also stumbled, shocked by the four burly figures blocking the doorway. He braced himself and bellowed, “Mr. Holmes, do you really want to do this? Are y
What? Alan Holmes’ younger brother? One of the three lords of Uppercreek? Henley panicked. His legs went limp as he stared incredulously at the bemused Rowan in front of him. Next to him, Clara also panicked at this moment. She did not expect Rowan to be the younger brother of Alan Holmes! She had heard that Alan Holmes was one of the three lords of Uppercreek! Goodness! She had actually offended such a character! She was doomed for sure this time. However, at this moment, she and Henley recalled a more terrifying fact—Rowan was very respectful to Philip before! Alan Holmes’ younger brother being so respectful to Philip was enough to illustrate a problem! It meant that Philip’s status was higher than Alan’s! After thinking about it carefully, Henley was afraid that his father’s claim about the mine being seized was true! Holy sh*t! At this moment, Henley and Clara realized what kind of existence they had provoked. Rowan coldly glanced at Bo, who had rushed
Upon walking closer, Philip saw that Wynn’s face was full of questions. He asked, “What’s wrong?” Wynn thought about it. Many words were stuck in her throat but in the end, she shook her head and said with a smile, “It’s nothing.” Philip smiled blandly and wanted to bring Wynn out of the shop. However, Bo and Henley were waiting respectfully at the door. They had no choice. If the coal mine continued to be sealed, the Dill family would be done for! Bo had to resolve this predicament. He angrily glared at Henley beside him and shouted, “Why are you still standing here? Get down on your knees and apologize to Mr. Clarke at once!” Henley was prepared to flee when his father’s voice suddenly sounded at his side, causing him to shudder with fright. Immediately after, he slowly turned around and looked at Philip, the fear in his eyes growing. At this point, he could only apologize and try to gain leniency. With a thud, Henley went down on his knees! He struggled to open h
