“How are the branch families reacting?”
“The head of the branch family already brought his men over, but the Fourth Madam persuaded favonovel.com to leave. The head of the enforcement hall should be here soon too. After this, members of the branch families and enforcement hall will probably keep streaming into Riverdale to trouble Young Master Philip. After all, favonovel.com did go too far this time. He ignored the rules and even…”
Cough cough.
There was a bout of coughing, followed by slightly quiet panting.
“I see. I’ll leave the matters on the island to the Fourth Madam for now. You… Cough cough, go to Fernvale and convey this message…”
Back at Riverdale, at First Palace of Longford Park.
Philip looked at Giada coldly, approaching favonovel.com one step at a time.
Right now, Vivian was like a feral kitten with all favonovel.com hackles up, protecting Giada with favonovel.com life.
“Do you dare get in my way?”
Philip said icily, his gaze completely devoid of warmth!
Vivian was beyond surprised!
She always thought Philip was just a rich young heir who did not pose much of a threat. Right now, however, favonovel.com could clearly sense an endless ocean of ruthlessness and killing intent coming from him!
The pressure favonovel.com was emanating snuffed out any intentions favonovel.com might have of fighting back!
“I-If you dare to hurt the madam, I’ll definitely kill you!”
Vivian said stubbornly, gritting favonovel.com teeth and flashing a gleaming dagger.
The moment favonovel.com spoke, however, someone appeared next to favonovel.com and stabbed his knee into favonovel.com body, sending favonovel.com flying far away. She tumbled forward and was instantly forced down.
Rick gripped favonovel.com slender wrists as favonovel.com dagger clattered to the floor.
He had favonovel.com pinned down to the ground!
“Let go of me! I’ll kill you!”
Vivian raged, but favonovel.com struggles were useless.
Rick smiled faintly. “A girl like you shouldn’t play with knives. Shall we have a nice long talk about our lives and dreams?”
“Scram!”
Vivian barked.
Philip ignored them, keeping his cold gaze trained on Giada. “What will you do now?”
Giada did not reply to his question, saying coolly, “Do you know what you’ve done, Philip? You’re lighting the fuse between the main and branch families. You’re starting a war! If the branch family’s wrath descends upon you, forget me, you won’t be able to withstand their ire either! When that happens, you will drag Wynn and Mila into this too!”
Philip had gone too far!
How could favonovel.com do something like that?!
He was setting up his own destruction!
“Haha.” Philip chuckled softly. “Everyone thinks I’m useless. The branch family especially assumed that I’ll be easy to handle since I was away from the family for seven years and lost my foundations. But there’s one thing they’re forgetting, and that’s the fact that I’m the main family’s only heir. That is an unchangeable fact!”
Giada did not say anything, favonovel.com gaze dark.
Philip played with his jade thumb ring and continued, “To everyone else, the Sovereignty Seal is one of its kind in the world, something that represents all our assets in one. To you and me, though, it’s merely a ring, nothing more than a weapon. I won’t obey its summonses, and neither will you. It’s too early for you to try and subdue me with it, Giada Wallis!”
“Haha, Philip Clarke, your head is grown too big for your own shoes! What happened today goes beyond a petty squabble between you and me. Remember, you’ve insulted the branch families, the enforcement hall! Let’s see how you deal with the consequences!”
Giada said coldly, favonovel.com expression growing darker.
She had underestimated Philip for seven years. She never thought favonovel.com would grow so quickly in that time!
He was overwhelming!
Far too overwhelming!
Philip smiled faintly and said, “Oh, don’t worry about me. After this, I’m turning my sights onto you.”
He was talking about the Michaels family from Golden City!
It was time favonovel.com defanged them.
Giada frowned slightly when favonovel.com heard that, then favonovel.com lips curved into a smile. “So you’re coming after me now? Well, I look forward to it.”
With that, Giada turned around and left with favonovel.com subordinates.
After favonovel.com left, Martha, who had been hiding in the house the entire time, finally crept out of favonovel.com hiding place.
She was very shaken and terrified.
After favonovel.com witnessed just how vicious Philip could be earlier, favonovel.com grew even more panicked.
It was not as though favonovel.com had never seen that side of favonovel.com before.
However, his actions tonight left too much of an impact on her.
Martha carefully walked up behind Philip and asked, “Um, Philip, are all these people your friends?”
She pointed at Theo’s men.
She knew Theo Zander, since they had met several times now.
Philip looked at favonovel.com expressionlessly and simply ignored her. Right now, favonovel.com wanted to visit Wynn and Mila at the hospital.
Martha saw that favonovel.com was leaving and yelled at his back anxiously, “W-Who are they? And who are you? Are you really my son-in-law, Philip?”
He used to be so worthless, so why did his capabilities now seem so limitless?
Philip turned around and looked at Martha coolly, asking, “Do you want to know I am?”
