Chapter 249

Author: Master Yu Who Smokes
A loud, booming voice was heard from the other end of the line, containing a trace of melancholiness.

“Bob, what has happened for you to call me this late at night? This is very unlike you.”

Desmond Fargo was currently at home in his study room, looking at the following day’s work minutes. He was wearing reading glasses, and his hair was white at his temples.

He carried the aura of someone who had been in an official position for a long time. His actions and demeanor were both stoic and resolute.

Bob Yates was a good friend of his for many years. In the past, both of them were often seen hand-in-hand, achieving numerous accomplishments in the system together.

Even though Bob had retired early, he still had a strong influence. That was especially true when it came to many students.

Bob flicked a glance at the nonchalant Philip and said, “Desmond, my son Samson is facing some problems in his company. The tax officers got to him and said there are problems with his books. Plea

    Bob quickly regained his senses and picked up his phone. He had another way out; the angel investor! As long as the angel investor continued to invest in the Yates, there was still a chance for him to make a comeback! Mr. Clarke. That was right, Mr. Clarke! That angel investor had mentioned it before that his actions were on the account of Mr. Clarke. Bob could not wait to find this mysterious and wealthy Mr. Clarke. However, at this moment. Philip glanced at his phone placidly and asked with a grin, “Old Master, are you trying to approach the foreign businessman that invested one billion in your family last time to come and save you?” Bob was startled. His gaze swept across Philip and saw a trace of victory in the latter’s eyes. Could it be, that Mr. Clarke was… No, impossible! Bob shook his head repeatedly and screamed in utter aversion, “It can’t be you! Impossible! You’re nothing but a worthless piece of trash, the useless son-in-law of the Johnston family!” H

    Philip ignored Martha and turned his attention to the men standing outside the house. “Do you still want to lay your hands on me?” Those people exchanged silent looks. When they saw Bob kneeling on the ground, they stepped back without a fuss. Philip then left the Old Johnston Manor with Wynn. Before that, Wynn had noticed the situation in the house and asked Philip, “Philip, what did you do to Grandpa? Why is he kneeling on the ground?” Wynn was shocked! The scene was simply unbelievable! Bob was the Old Master of the Yates family! He was her grandfather, a stubborn old fogey! However, at that moment, he was kneeling on the ground, and tears could be seen streaming down his cheeks! Philip… what exactly did he say to the Old Master? Philip looked at Wynn and said, “I’ll tell you next time. Now, I’ll bring you to the hospital to treat the injuries on your face. If a scar is left, you won’t be beautiful anymore.” Wynn’s words got stuck in her throat. Looking at one

    “Are you relieved now?” Philip hugged Wynn’s shoulders and asked.Wynn nodded and wiped her tears.She had waited for this day for such a long time.At the same time, in the Old Johnston Manor, Martha was hysterically kicking up a big fuss.The Yates were bankrupt, and Martha had lost the support of her maiden family. What would happen to her status in this family in the future?How would she face her neighbors whenever she went out in the future?Especially when this matter was splattered all over the news.Early this morning, she received a few text messages from her friends. Their words were all full of gloating and sarcasm.“These mean b*tches, they must have been waiting for this day! Sending phony messages to comfort me… They’re just shedding crocodile tears!”Martha almost went crazy with rage. She tried to phone Bob, Peter, and Samson, but the calls went unanswered.After thinking about it, she sat on the sofa and called Paula.“Paula, what should we do? Our family h

    Before he could finish his sentence, Wynn’s phone rang and interrupted their conversation.She rolled her eyes at Philip and said, “Regardless of what my Mom says, just don’t give her more money. She’s just kicking up a fuss now. It’ll die down soon.”With that said, Wynn stepped aside to answer the call.Philip stared at Wynn’s back in silence and mumbled, “Forget it. Once Mila gets well, all of us will move into our new home.”On this day, the news about Yates' bankruptcy intensified. Many forces and families were speculating about the power and influence behind all of this.The methods were too formidable!They only found out the terrifying circumstances after detailed investigation!Overnight!In just one night, the Yates went bankrupt and fell from grace.The reason turned out to be because the Yates had offended someone.Who was that person?It was a secret that many upper-class families and forces in Riverdale wanted to unearth.In other words, one small move from Ph

    Philip was powerless as he got chased out of the house just like that.Standing at the entrance, he could still hear Martha’s tirade in the house.After brief consideration, Philip called George. “Old Man George, can you help me keep a lookout for any houses on sale recently? Wynn’s mother is thinking of buying a villa. If she asks about it, you can handle it on your own.”“Sure, Young Master. I know what to do,” on the other end of the line, George responded respectfully.After hanging up the phone, George immediately notified his secretary to contact all the real estate agents in Riverdale.As long as Martha had inquired about a villa to any real estate agent, the price would be reduced by half.In that case, even Martha would be able to afford it.After the arrangement, George responded to Philip who immediately gave his assent.He would treat that as a gift to the Johnston family. After all, Philip had not given anything to Martha in the past three years.After Philip left

    Philip helped Wynn put on her helmet before he bopped her on the nose and said, “Nothing much. It’s just a company vehicle, that’s all.”With that said, he quickly started the vehicle and turned the handlebars. The BMW motorcycle roared to life pleasantly!It was the dream of every man.“Hold on tight.” Philip chuckled.The vehicle zoomed out quickly like a drift.Wynn sat behind Philip, her arms tight around his waist. She got a fright just now!When cornering, Philip actually imitated the moves of the bike racers on TV, leaning low into the corner!It was too cool!That scene attracted many passersby to cheer and take pictures of them.Was he still the trashy husband of hers?He even knew how to do stunts like this!Wynn stared at Philip’s back, her heart full of questions.How much did she not know about her own husband?Very soon, they arrived at the sales office of Hillside Villa on the bike.Wynn got down first and quickly dashed into the office.Philip had to park

    “My mother-in-law and father-in-law are here to look at houses. Why are you chasing them away?”Philip appeared at the door. With his face stoic, he walked in one step at a time.His gaze immediately locked on Wynn’s left cheek that had an obvious red print. His wife got hit during the time he parked the bike?Philip walked up to Wynn and touched her left cheek. With fury in his eyes, he demanded to know. “Who did this?”With tears in her eyes, Wynn glanced at the flashy woman but shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. Let’s go.”Wynn was angry, but she did not want to cause any trouble. After all, the other party had connections in the family. As a commoner, she could not afford to provoke them.However, the unexpected happened.Philip said grimly, “That won’t do. In this world, no one can hit my wife, no matter who they are. Even if it’s the king of heaven, he must kneel and beg for your forgiveness.”He was brimming with dominance!The entire sales office fell silent.Eve

    Wynn was standing right next to Philip, watching everything unfold without a word.This man was so familiar to her, but also so unfamiliar.Martha and Charles had long since been stunned into silence. They exchanged a look and found oceans of fury in each other’s eyes. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done, Philip? Why the hell did you do that? Her brother is the Chief Staff Sergeant! We’re screwed, you’ve condemned us all to death!”Martha immediately shoved Philip and yelled at him, then she just sat her butt on the floor and began bawling unreasonably.Philip really hated the way Martha made a huge scene out of everything. She was always so ignorant and ungrateful.“It’s fine, Mom. I can handle this,” Philip said calmly.“As if you can handle anything! You’re just a good-for-nothing! Oh, you’ll be the death of us all!” Martha scolded him angrily. She wanted nothing more than to rip him to shreds right now.That cursed Philip Clarke was truly a blight on her life.If the w

    Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting

    Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think

    Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass

    However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be

    Cameron smiled awkwardly at everyone’s dissatisfaction. “That’s not the case. I'm still trying to figure out the situation. I thought I might make a mistake if I released the news in advance,” Cameron explained awkwardly. Although few people bought it, they put aside their prejudices. After all, they were not here to argue but to talk about it. If Cameron was driven into a corner and refused to tell them anything, they would be on the losing end, and no one wanted that outcome. “In that case, tell us what you know so that we can put our heads together. After all, there's strength in numbers. It’s better to do this together!” “I agree with the Lamy family's patriarch. Tell us your reservations so that we can figure it out!” Everyone made a din, clearly forcing Cameron to give in to their demands. Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Cameron finally decided to tell the truth. “What’s going on?” Before Cameron could tell them anything, Rabbit appeared. Rabbit hopped

    At this time, the Claude family’s butler found the residence's doorstep surrounded by people. The butler was horrified and quickly found the patriarch. “Oh no, something bad has happened!” The butler ran into the room in disbelief. The excited Cameron scowled at this sudden intrusion. “What’s bad? Watch your words. Have you forgotten your manners? Don’t speak so loudly in this house!” Cameron had been lost in his excitement, but it was quickly replaced by anger. He wished he could fire the butler on the spot.The butler was scared and felt sorry for himself. “Patriarch! I wasn’t kidding. Something bad has happened!” “People from other families are at the door, including the heads of their families! They keep talking about some storage space and a rabbit, demanding an explanation from us. I don’t know what’s going on!” The butler felt aggrieved because he had no idea what happened. He only knew that a rabbit that could speak human language had turned up in the family. That ra

    Philip had that precious tea on hand. Just one mouthful was enough to improve Cameron’s strength. He also had that incredible storage space. What was Philip’s background? How many mysterious treasures did he have? No one dared to think about it. Especially Cameron, who felt that he had found a treasure this time. At first, Cameron bore a grudge against Philip and felt that he had messed things up, but now, he saw Philip as his salvation.… Meanwhile, Sadie had no idea what had happened. Sadie’s husband was dealing with Philip’s issue with Cameron and did not have time to report the situation to his useless wife. She was still thinking about how to deal with Philip. “The rabbit’s storage space must be very valuable. If I spread the news about it, everyone will mess with that rabbit and save me the effort!” Thinking of this, Sadie thought she was very smart and was eager to put the plan into action. After thinking about it, Sadie contacted several families who were on go

    “What are you guys doing here? Don’t you have anything better to do?” Rabbit asked bluntly. This arrogant rabbit was even more outspoken after staying with Aslan for so long. The Claude family felt offended. “My child, do you have a storage space? How did you get it? Can you tell me more?” Cameron ignored Rabbit but asked Ronan excitedly, eager to find out the situation. Ronan nodded calmly. “It’s just a storage space. Stop kicking up a fuss over it. My space is not very big, just enough to contain this house at most. It’s not a big deal,” he said pretentiously. Hearing that, Philip silently gave him a thumbs-up. He did not forget Ronan’s exaggerated expression when he first saw the size of the storage space. Surprisingly, Ronan got into the role so quickly. Philip thought he was a good actor. Ronan's casual remarks nearly caused everyone a mental breakdown. They were shocked as if they heard something incredible. “What? Is the space that big?” Cameron coughed violently.

    “You can form a bond with the ring. Once that’s done, no one can take it away from you. It’ll belong to you forever.” Philip’s explanation reassured Ronan, and he finally accepted the gift from Philip with confidence. Although Ronan was strong, he was not arrogant to the point of being ignorant. If someone could take it from him, he would rather not have it. Although it was gratifying to own one, it would be painful to lose it after having it. With Philip’s affirmation, Ronan fidgeted with the ring happily and wanted to express his gratitude. Philip simply waved his hand without dwelling on it. “That’s enough. Go explore the storage space on your own. I believe it’ll help you greatly. “Since they’re so interested in Rabbit's storage space, you should show it off to them. I believe they’ll immediately hold you in high regard and maybe they’ll deal with those arrogant guys in the family.” Philip was excited at this mean trick and laughed when he thought of those people’s ugly
