Nina asked all of a sudden with red eyes. She grabbed Philip’s arm bravely. She looked vulnerable and fragile. “I’m scared. I’m scared that Harrison will come back with more people.”Philip lowered his head and looked at Nina’s hands that were on his arm. He removed her hands slowly and chuckled. “It’ll be fine. That guy’s just strong in appearance but weak in reality. If he dares to come back, just call me.”After chatting with Nina for a while, Philip left.He could not stay here any longer. It was just the two of them.Philip was still defensive.Nina did not force him to stay. She walked him downstairs.Philip waved his hand and put his hands into his pockets. He hummed a song and walked away carefreely.In Nina’s eyes, Philip’s back looked broad and strong. Perhaps, this was the man she should go after.She was sure that this would be another sleepless night.When Nina got back to her house, she saw that there were three men in her house.The leader of the three men was
Philip explained. “Don’t worry about this matter, Wynnie. A friend of mine introduced Buffer to me. Don’t overthink. Just take good care of the company.”Wynn wanted to say something but stopped herself. When she wanted to ask something else, the door of the room was opened.Martha stood at the door with a grin. She did not care about their expressions as she barged in. She smiled and asked, “I heard you two saying that you’ve solved the company’s trouble?”“Mom, why are you always eavesdropping?”Wynn felt helpless. She lifted her eyebrow.Her mother did not have a limit at all. This was not the first time she eavesdropped.Martha rolled her eyes at Wynn and ignored her. Then, she turned around to look at Philip with a grin on her face. She said, “Philip, did you take care of it? You even have such an amazing friend. When can you invite them for dinner at our place? After all, they’ve helped us so much.”Martha was being extremely amiable right now.Philip smiled and said, “Ma
Why did Martha steal the card?She had remembered something last night. When she checked the balance in the bank the previous time, she saw that there was 100 billion in the balance!Everyone said she was just seeing things. Even the bank said the system was faulty.However, Martha did not believe them. She wanted to go see for herself.At this moment, Philip was already at the hospital. He saw Mila and Anne.Mila called him in the sweetest voice and jumped into his arms.Philip held Mila and was beaming. His daughter was the source of his happiness. “Did you miss Daddy?”“Yeah!” Mila answered adorably and obediently.When Anne saw the happy father and daughter, a smile appeared on her face.“Annie, pack your things. Let’s go home,” said Philip.On the way back to the villa, Philip got Nina’s phone call. She said she needed to see him.After pondering for a while, Philip decided to let Anne take Mila back to the villa first. Then, he called a cab to go to the office.Philip
“What’s wrong with my card?”Martha was anxious. She tried to crane her neck over to the other end of the glass to see what was on the computer screen.“Madam, I’m sorry. We can’t check the balance of your card for the time being. Plus, our branch doesn’t have the permission to check your card. You need to go to our headquarters.”The woman behind the counter said apologetically.This was the first time she encountered this.There were two big red words on her computer screen that spelled out ‘No permission’.What was going on?“Why is this happening? Can you try checking it again? I remember seeing a lot of money on this card previously.”Martha refused to give up.The woman behind the counter did not know what to do as well. She got up and fetched the manager.When the manager got here and saw the words ‘no permission’ on the screen, he was puzzled as well.He had been working here for 20 years but never encountered this before.He even asked Martha to reenter the pin. Ho
After a long while, she finally saw an elegant figure walking down the spiral stairs. She was wearing a long black dress and there was a Persian in her arms.With every step, the woman’s high heels clicked against the tiles. Martha felt as if her heart had been struck.Giada!It was Giada!Martha was petrified.What did she want?Giada looked at Martha who was trembling all over and sat down on the sofa. She caressed her Persian and said coldly, “We meet again, Martha.”“M-Madam Wallis, what are you doing? I didn’t do anything wrong, did I?”Martha was terror-stricken. She was scared that Giada would hit her again.There was a cold smile on Giada’s lips, and her eyes were filled with disdain. She said, “I didn’t call you here for any particular reasons. I just want you to do something for me. Once you do it, you’ll get five million bucks.”After she said that, Giada’s subordinate took out five silver boxes and placed them in front of Martha.When the boxes were opened, there
At this moment, Philip’s phone rang!It was from George!He put down the glass and walked out of the hall. “Old Man George, how’s it going…”His voice got softer and softer as he walked further away.Martha let out a sigh of relief when she saw Philip putting down the glass. She was extremely fidgety.Thankfully, he did not drink it.However, Martha started to panic again. She had already used one packet, which meant she only had two more chances left.Should she let Philip drink this?Martha was feeling nervous. It was not poison, so he would not die.After Philip walked out of the hall, he went to a corner. George’s respectful voice sounded from the other end of the phone. He said, “Young Master, we couldn’t find Mr. Fennel Leigh in Chinatown. I went to his place, but he’s not there anymore.”“Not there anymore?”Philip frowned. After staying silent for a while, he said, “Alright, understood. Just find a place to stay over there and keep in touch with him.”After he hung
‘What do you mean treating you to a meal even when I’m like this? You’re the ones who are forcing me!‘No!‘Treating you to a meal? Don’t go off-topic!’Harrison could not express his misery. He had no choice but to suffer in silence. The heartless grim reaper was talking loudly in front of him. How would he dare to revolt?Especially when Philip was addressing him so intimately. Harrison could not help but tremble. Philip was just trying to aggravate him by praising him excessively. This was not fun at all! He wanted so badly to just submit to Philip right now.He could not take this anymore, especially when that kid was praising him continuously and being so generous. He was livid as he slammed his hand down on the table and yelled, “Enough! F*cking…”In the end, before Harrison could finish swearing, he saw Philip sipping his alcohol coldly from the corner of his eye. He could not help but tremble after seeing that cold action and piercing gaze.Disdain!Yes, it was disdain!
He glanced at the signboard of Tex Hall and looked for the private room his nephew told him about. When he pushed open the door, he was shocked. What was happening? Harrison and Philip were enjoying themselves inside while the beautiful woman was sitting quietly next to them.From the looks of it, this looked like a gathering of old friends.Did Harrison not tell him to come hold the fort? What was going on, then?The man walked inside and sat down after pulling a chair. He lit a cigarette and kicked the table. He yelled, “Boy, where is he? How can you enjoy yourself like this? Do you want to do this or not?”Norm West looked down on his nephew. However, he was still his nephew after all. Blood was thicker than water. He had cleaned up after Harrison’s mess plenty of times before. It was always minor things like fights and nothing major. It would be fine after he talked to the other party.However, this time, his nephew told him that both of his legs were broken. He even had to be
