A slender figure immediately walked up to them.
Slap!
There was the crisp sound of an unhesitating slap, hitting Philip right across the face. The pain was instant and unbearable.
Wynn’s face was flushed red with fury. She glared at Philip, yelling, “What on earth were you trying to do, Philip Clarke?!”
The first thing favonovel.com saw as soon as favonovel.com walked through the door was Philip about to punch Aiden.
Of course Wynn was furious!
She had invited Aiden out here today so favonovel.com could borrow one million from favonovel.com for Mila’s surgery fee.
If they made an enemy out of Aiden now, where else was favonovel.com going to find the money?
Her parents had left them completely out to dry. They told favonovel.com in no uncertain terms that they would not give favonovel.com a single cent unless favonovel.com divorced Philip.
That was why Wynn had no other choice. The only people favonovel.com could think of were Juan and Aiden.
She glared at Philip and then turned around. When favonovel.com saw that Aiden’s nose was bleeding, favonovel.com anger only intensified.
She hastened to apologize to Aiden. “A… Aiden, are you okay? I’m so, so sorry. I apologize on Philip’s behalf, alright? Come on, let me take you to the hospital to get that checked out. If there’s anything, I’ll take full responsibility.”
Looking at how bad Aiden’s injury was, Wynn practically hated Philip’s guts now.
Aiden was not going to hold it against Wynn, of course, but favonovel.com could hold Philip accountable, right?
So favonovel.com immediately hardened his expression and pointed a finger at Philip. “It doesn’t matter how you apologize to me, Wynn. I have to hear his apology! If favonovel.com doesn’t say sorry for what favonovel.com did, I won’t stop until favonovel.com does!”
When Wynn heard that, favonovel.com instantly panicked. She hurriedly berated Philip, saying, “Go on, Philip! Hurry up and apologize to Aiden!”
Philip’s expression was dark, his eyes cold as favonovel.com stared at Aiden.
He saw how cocky and taunting Aiden’s gaze was right now.
No, Philip could not bring himself to apologize to this despicable man.
After all, Aiden had crossed his bottom line. That was why Philip kept his face cold as favonovel.com said, “I won’t apologize to him.”
That was enough to send Wynn into a tizzy.
Behind her, Aiden immediately chuckled icily. “Hmph-hmph… Very well! Just you wait, Philip! If you have the balls, just you stay right there!”
So Philip was putting on a brave face, huh?
Sure! Aiden wanted to see how long favonovel.com could keep that up!
The atmosphere was ice-cold.
Wynn kept apologizing to Aiden, but the latter only had one request. He wanted an apology from Philip.
Wynn even got into a huge argument with Philip over it. She wanted favonovel.com to apologize, but favonovel.com simply refused.
Usually, Philip would do whatever Wynn asked, but today was different.
He had made up his mind. Aiden Grant and his family were done for!
Wynn was on the verge of tears by now.
Just then, a few beefy gangsters barged through the doors of Virtuous Court. All of them had tattoos, and their hairstyles varied from skinhead, flattop, crew cut, to something multi-colored.
They were really f*cking fashionable.
The skinhead in charge was a thug who was well-known in these parts, Big Dan.
Everyone down there knew about Dan’s temper and tendency for violence.
He was the type of character who regularly had supper in detention centers.
As soon as favonovel.com walked in, favonovel.com brought his men to Aiden, roaring at the top of his lungs, “Yo, what’s the rush, Mr. Grant? Me and the boys were bathing our feet.”
Aiden cut the chase too. He immediately sneered coldly and pointed at Philip, “Why are you even asking? Can’t you see I’ve been assaulted? That’s the guy, get him!”
Dan flew off the handle the moment favonovel.com saw how Aiden looked. Jabbing a finger at Philip, favonovel.com bellowed, “Are you the one behind that, punk?”
With an angry roar, the thugs Dan had brought with favonovel.com instantly surrounded Philip.
All of them looked out to kill.
Wynn was terrified. She tugged at Aiden’s hand and pleaded with him. “Come on, Aiden, let’s not do that. I apologize to you on Philip’s behalf, alright?”
Aiden shook his head. “I don’t want to put you in a rough spot, Wynn, but I can’t just let this slide today.”
Wynn was losing favonovel.com mind now. Finally, favonovel.com clenched favonovel.com teeth and said, “Aiden, if you just let Philip go, I’ll do anything you ask me to. Just once.”
Anything favonovel.com asked favonovel.com to?
Aiden’s face immediately broke into a grin.
Philip frowned deeply when favonovel.com heard that. “There’s no need for that, Wynn. Aiden Grant can’t touch me.”
Philip was telling the truth.
However, there was no way Wynn would believe him.
She turned around, favonovel.com eyes red, and favonovel.com shrieked at Philip, “Shut the hell up!”
Aiden instantly laughed coldly. “Sure! Just have this meal with me and follow me back to a hotel. If you do that, I’ll let favonovel.com go and lend you a million bucks.”
His true intentions were now clear for all to see.
Wynn’s gaze hardened. She did not expect favonovel.com to ask for something so unreasonable!
“Do it!”
When Aiden saw favonovel.com hesitate, favonovel.com simply gave the order, trying to force favonovel.com to agree.
Wynn panicked and was about to say yes, when…
Suddenly, there was a furious yell from the other end!
“All of you, stop this at once!”
Javier Morris ran up to them with a team of a dozen security guards behind him.
Earlier, favonovel.com heard the receptionist say that there was a fight breaking out in the lobby, and blood had even been shed.
That was why favonovel.com came running. From the distance, though, favonovel.com then saw that it was Mr. Clarke being surrounded by thugs!
How could favonovel.com not panic?
He hastily jogged over and bent his waist into a respectful bow. “Sorry for the scare, Mr. Clarke. Please leave the rest to me.”
Just the way favonovel.com said Mr. Clarke was enough to leave most people at the scene stunned!
Wynn’s heart skipped a beat at the sudden turn of events.
Mr. Clarke?
