Chapter 193

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
An investment of one billion bucks!

All of the Yates’ assets were just worth 700 to 800 million bucks!

Adding in Bob’s own company with Samson and Ted’s company, they only had a little over a billion!

This investment of one billion bucks came out of nowhere!

How would he not be excited?

Bob stood up excitedly and widened his eyes. He asked while gasping for air, “What… What did you say? Say it again!”

“Old Master, we got an investment of one billion dollars!” the middle-aged man finally wiped his sweat and said with the same excitement.

In an instant, Bob’s face turned red. He lifted his head and guffawed at the sky. “Wonderful! The Yates family is finally going to enter high society! An investment of one billion dollars! Go and find out who was the one who invested in us. We have to invite them here and take good care of them!”

This person must be an extremely rich billionaire.

He had to treat him with respect.

Bob was ready to invite them here himself.

    Bob glared coldly at Philip who was sitting on his seat. He snorted and said, “Who does he think he is? What a sore sight!”With a scoff, Bob walked away with his black wood cane tapping on the ground. He was about to leave with his group of people.Philip had been enduring this kind of treatment for a long time. He sat on his seat indifferently and took a sip of his wine. He said calmly, “You can’t be sure that I’m not Mr.Clarke.”At first, everyone was shocked. Then, they started laughing loudly.Was Philip an idiot?How dare he say something like this?“Damn! Philip, why don’t you take a look at yourself in the mirror? Aside from your last name, what part of you looks like a rich person?”Eric laughed in frustration.How could such a shameless person exist? He was hilarious!Philip did not say anything. He knew they would not believe him even if he told them.Bob and his group of people snorted and went out of the door.In a blink of an eye, only a few people were left in

    Eric guffawed. His face was filled with contempt. He pointed at Philip and said, “F*ck me! What did you say, Philip? You’re taking Wynn there? How are you going to take her there? You’re just a piece of trash!“Do you know what kind of place Cirrus Manor is? It’s the most mysterious manor in Riverdale! It cost the owners one billion to build!“Are you saying that you’re qualified to be invited to the party?”Eric could not contain himself. He said all kinds of horrible and sarcastic remarks.He attracted the attention of a few people in just a short while. They started laughing at Philip too.Philip was simply humiliating himself!He was still trying to boast when things had already come to this.Wynn’s face was also burning. She kicked Philip under the table to tell him to stop talking.She was plenty embarrassed already but Philip would not stop talking!Would he only stop after he had beef with everyone?When she thought about this, Wynn was starting to get angry.However

    Bang!The door of the restroom kicked open and Jess barged in.When she saw the sight before her, she turned around to leave. Before she left, however, she turned around and said, “You’ve been married for so long. Find someplace better if you want to be intimate with each other.”After Jess left, Philip said in annoyance, “There must be something wrong with this woman’s head. She can’t bear to see a husband and a wife being happy.”Wynn rolled her eyes at him and approached him. She straightened her back and buttoned Philip’s shirt for him.Philip wanted to continue but Wynn smacked his hand away. “Stop being unsatisfied with small gains. Let’s go.”Philip shrugged helplessly. He murmured, “We’ve been husband and wife for so long. What are you scared of?”Wynn turned around and displayed a pleasing smile. She looked seductive under the sun.When they got back to the party, it was nearing the end. Philip had just sat down for one minute when he got George’s message.‘Young Ma

    Bob was beyond excited at this moment.Russell was here and was even gifting him ‘Shrimp’ by Qi Baishi. This was such a precious gift!Not everyone was able to give out such luxurious gifts.Everyone followed behind Bob and came to the outer courtyard. Then, they got to the entrance.Eric was the last one to arrive. When he saw that Philip did not move, he said in despise, “What’s wrong? An important man like Russell Field is here and you don’t want to go and welcome him?”Did this guy have nails on his bottom?How could he still sit there?After Eric’s reminder, Philip thought about it and came to the conclusion that Eric’s words made sense. He got up and followed Wynn as well as the rest of the crowd. However, he stood a few meters away from the crowd. He did not want to go to the front. Philip did not want to get involved in something like this.Everyone stood at the door respectfully. A black Maybach stopped at the entrance.In an instant, the car door was opened and Russe

    Russel smiled and said, “Oh, Phil and I bonded through collecting. He’s one of my most intimate friends. We’re kindred spirits.”Intimate friends?Kindred spirits?Bob was shocked. Everyone was also taken aback.What was going on?Philip was just a spineless bum. How did he know an entrepreneur with a net worth of a few billion bucks like Russell?Was Philip a collector as well?Impossible. He was so poor. Did he have the money to collect?Eric and Aaron were surprised. Philip even knew someone like this?! They had underestimated him.“I didn’t expect that Russell came here for Philip.”Everyone’s jaws dropped.Was this a joke?“Russell is a famous collector in the country and is worth more than three billion. Why is such an important man so respectful toward Philip? Something’s not right.” Jess was meticulous. She stood among the crowd and sensed that something was amiss.However, when she looked at Philip closely, she could not imagine him being a billionaire or a nouv

    “Theo Zander? Which Theo Zander?”“Mr. Theo Zander from Theodorus Charity Organization?”“The underground king of Riverdale, Theo Zander? Why is he here?”Before the relatives and younger generation of the Yates in the courtyard came back to their senses, everyone in the hall was starting to get antsy. Compared to an entrepreneur and well-known collector like Russell, Theo was popular in Riverdale because of his power with the dark side.If a powerful man like that did not come here sincerely, it could be said that he was here to take someone’s life.It was only natural for Bob to be nervous.Not everyone could get in touch with a powerful man like Theo. Plus, no ordinary person could invite him to anything.While everyone was in a state of shock, Theo was already walking into the courtyard with a smile on his face. His white suit and fedora were radiating an air of dominance. One would feel like they were being crushed by a mountain with his presence.It was Theo Zander inde

    That was Theo Zander!Philip did not know what was good for him. How dare he be so disrespectful?Bob was the first one to be mad. He yelled at Philip, “Philip, since Mr. Zander is here for you, why are you still sitting? Who do you think you are? Do you have no manners?”After Bob’s angry shouting, Eric, Aaron, and some other people started berating him as well.“Philip, stand up and apologize to Mr. Zander now!”“That piece of trash really thinks that he’s someone special.”They were saying more and more nasty things about Philip. These people did not like Philip for a very long time now. They finally had a chance to chime in.If Theo got angry, Philip would be done for!However, Philip only lifted his head slightly and looked at everyone. Then, he grabbed the ladle and took some soup for Wynn. He said, “This is not bad. It’s good for your body. You should drink more.”Damn it!Bob was seething!This piece of trash was completely disrespecting him!When he was about to

    George Thomas the billionaire!What prestige and fame he had!He had a net worth of more than ten billion and was the legend of Riverdale.The amount of wealth and connections he had could not be imagined by anyone at the scene.A powerful man like him was at Old Master Yates’ party. No one would have thought of this happening!When they heard George’s name, everyone in the hall and outer courtyard started gasping. They fell into a state of shock.Everyone at the scene including Bob, Peter, and Samson stood up. Russell and Theo also stood up to get ready to welcome this VVIP.“Who would’ve expected George Thomas to show up?”Everyone was scared. There were ominous glints in their eyes. They all stared at the entrance at the same time. They wanted so badly to see the legendary billionaire of Riverdale to appear at the door. A few luxury cars stopped outside the door of Yates Manor. Then, George got out of a black Bentley. He was wearing a grey Tang suit and holding a cane. He

    “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for attending the lark family’s grand ceremony of the century,” a man announced in the middle of the square, and the bride stood next to him with a happy smile on her face. If Adam was present, he would definitely recognize the bride as the woman he had been dreaming of over the years, Ashley Bay. A handsome man stood next to the bride. His every move was imposing and domineering. They looked like the perfect match. Everyone looked at this scene and blessed them happily. “After a series of careful selection, I finally found the most suitable husband for my daughter. This is an important event for the lark people!” The lark people had a high status, and everyone wanted to marry into this family. After many selections, the bridegroom finally won the bride’s hand in marriage. Over the years, countless men had flocked around Ashley. After observations from all aspects, this man fit all the criteria—so much so that Adam had long been forgotten.

    “This boot records various information about the lark people that may be very important to you. I believe you’ll understand after reading it.” After saying this, Renee handed the boot to Adam. She was not a fool. She knew that Philip was not the person initiating the search. Although Adam always remained calm, he could not hide his eagerness at all. Adam looked at Renee gratefully and took the book and started reading it without further ado. The more he read, the more shocked he felt. In the end, he was full of disbelief as if he could not believe what he saw. “Is this for real?” Adam finished reading the boot quickly and handed it to Philip and Carlos. The other two flipped through the book curiously. Philip scowled. He could not tell whether the information was true or false. “Is it true that the lark people have such an ability? It's recorded in the book that they can create a world. That’s simply…” Carlos was puzzled. Only a very powerful being could create a world. Was

    “Please tell me how to find them. I want to find out what’s going on, even if it's just to convince myself to give up.” Adam decided that he still wanted to find the other party. No matter what, he had to get to the bottom of it. If everything was a lost cause, he would give up. Hearing that, Renee seemed conflicted as if deciding whether to tell them everything. “It doesn’t do me any good to tell you this. Why should I take the risk for no reason? I do business. You need to pay a price for it,” Renee said with a smile. Philip laughed. The words sounded very familiar to him as if he said them before. He used to say such things when he was doing business just to bluff some dumb customers. “Of course, I know you do business. If you’re willing to tell us something, we can offer you something in return, whether money or other resources,” Philip said with calm confidence. No matter what the other party wanted, he could easily provide it. Renee smiled at Philip’s words. “It's

    The woman seemed amused by Philip’s request. “I know what you’re worried about. Don’t worry, I’m not a liar. Although my actions don’t seem aboveboard to you, I’m not a bad person.” The woman did not hide anything. She knew that Philip had seen through the secret of her singing. As the only man who discovered her secret, she admired Philip very much. She once vowed that she would marry the man who could resist the temptation of her singing. “By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Renee, and I'm an employee of Moon Tavern. My job is very simple, that is to bring in more profits to the tavern.” Renee seemed very sincere and told them everything about herself. “However, my method isn’t very aboveboard. You already know that I make profits by using my singing to attract customers.” Renee mentioned her secret frankly, and Philip was surprised by her honesty. “As for the secret between me and the lark people, I can tell you that they hate me so much because some

    Seeing everyone’s reaction, Philip was all the more interested in this mysterious existence. He wanted to find out who they were to act so arrogantly. Obviously, the lark people were stronger than anyone could imagine. Ordinary people were afraid of this family no matter how powerful they were. Maybe the storyteller felt uncomfortable at the mention of this family, but he quickly left after a while. Philip and the others were disappointed that they could not find out the news they wanted. When they thought that they had to return in defeat, a woman appeared and looked at them calmly. The woman was wearing a veil on her face, making it impossible to see her appearance. The veil was quite an extraordinary item that could block various detections. However, Philip recognized her at a glance. She was the woman singing on the stage just now. She actually approached them. Things were getting more and more interesting. “What you want to know is taboo. Come with me if you want to fi

    Meanwhile, backstage at Moon Tavern, the waiter was telling the woman singing on stage earlier about what had happened in the private room. The woman was full of disbelief, thinking the waiter was lying. “Don’t try to bluff me. How could anyone resist my attack?” The woman wore a veil on her face and looked very mysterious. Only the woman knew how disgusting she looked when she was not performing or casting spells. Covering her face was the best choice. The waiter told her what happened and described the state Philip and the others were in earlier. Although two people were affected, it was a problem because one person had remained conscious.They would face a lot of problems if other people discovered their tricks. The woman's tricks were extraordinary. Even a powerful person with superb strength would find it difficult to get rid of her attack. These so-called strong experts would only end up falling for her trick. At this time, the storyteller went on stage, and he was t

    Philip nodded. “Do I have to order something else?” A hint of realization flashed in Philip’s eyes. He realized what was going on. The woman had the ability to bewitch the customers by affecting their thinking and emotions through singing and inducing them into spending money. She exuded a special charm to attract the customers even though she looked ordinary. In their minds, she was an unattainable goddess. Everyone saw a different woman in their minds but charming nonetheless, tempting them to spend money on her even though it would cost them all their fortune. However, Philip was different. He could control his emotions very well, so this woman had almost no influence on him. He realized this problem when he first heard that mysterious song. The waiter scowled and finally left the private room in horror after much deliberation. Philip did not say anything at his hasty departure. The woman quickly left the stage after playing her zither, and the bewitched customers

    “Something is wrong. I find that woman a little weird.” Hearing that, they were curious to find out how Philip concluded that. “Although she’s not that good-looking, I don’t think she’s weird. What do you think is wrong with her?” Carlos said in puzzlement, wondering why Philip felt that this woman was weird. “The woman seems to have a fatal attraction to the male customers. It’s a scary ability to make these men flock to her.” It was weird that a woman with average looks could attract so many men. No one would believe that she had a strong appeal. “Welcome to Moon Tavern. I’ll be singing a song for you today. I hope you like it.” The woman's delicate voice rang, and everyone felt relaxed and happy. Even Philip felt that this voice was very charming, like the sound of nature ringing in his ears. However, Philip was not a fool. He keenly sensed something wrong with the situation. Nothing would be charming enough to attract him. For it to happen meant that something was wro

    “Give us three pots of tea. We don’t need anything else. Thank you.” Philip did not order anything else. In his opinion, he was just here to find information, so his money should be spent on things that mattered the most. The waiter rolled his eyes at the order and seemed to look down on Philip. “Customers, are you sure you only want a few pots of tea? We have many snacks too,” the waiter said in disdain. Carlos was more concerned about his image, so he was shocked by the waiter’s obvious disdain. “Yes, we only need a pot of tea each. We want to have a taste first.” Adam's attitude was much better, speaking with a friendly smile on his face. Even if the waiter was angry, he could do nothing about it. The waiter left cursing under his breath. He thought that they were big customers, but they did not even give him a tip. Philip glanced at the waiter helplessly. Even waiters were so arrogant nowadays. Philip and the others were quickly served three pots of tea. The pots
