Here, Philip followed Anson Goode to his sister’s villa.
Unfortunately, Janice was not around.
Philip had made the trip for nothing.
In desperation, Philip, who had waited for half an hour, finally chose to leave.
He would return tomorrow.
As for Anson, favonovel.com accompanied Philip the entire time. Seeing that Philip was about to leave, favonovel.com hurriedly stepped forward to stop favonovel.com and respectfully said, “Excuse me, Mr. Clarke, it just happens that there’s a private banquet for all the owners in this community. Those attending are famous people in Uppercreek. Since you’re the most distinguished owner in this community, I wonder if you’d be interested to show up at the banquet hall later?”
Philip thought for a while and found it difficult to decline Anson’s hospitality, so favonovel.com nodded and said, “Let’s go.”
Anson was overjoyed. He was able to invite the super owner of the Bird of Paradise Villa to tonight’s banquet. His future career progression was bound to be unstoppable!
The Bird of Paradise Villa was originally bought by a mysterious rich man, and it caused a storm in various circles such as the Uppercreek real estate, entertainment, and financial circles!
Everyone wanted to know who this extravagant rich man was!
Unexpectedly, Anson had the honor to be the first to see favonovel.com today.
However, Philip had no idea what Anson was thinking about. In fact, favonovel.com was not the one who bought the Bird of Paradise Villa—it was a gift from Hoyt Luther.
Soon, Philip followed Anson to the banquet hall.
This was an exclusive area in Blossoms Park, especially used to welcome VIPs and for the owners to have a party.
After all, those who could buy a villa in Blossoms Park were no ordinary people.
The whole hall was magnificent with carved beams and painted pillars. It looked very luxurious and extravagant.
“Mr. Clarke, this way please. Do let me inform a few entrepreneurs in Uppercreek of your arrival. They should be very happy to meet you. Please have a seat and have a cup of tea. The main hall is over there.”
Anson said to Philip respectfully and took a few steps back before turning around and trotting away.
Philip glanced in the direction of the main hall. After waiting for a while and seeing that no one was approaching, favonovel.com got up and walked toward the main hall.
At this moment, in the main hall.
Yolanda Lee, Gil Dean, and the rest were huddled together on a sofa in the rest area. They were drinking tea and chatting while surrounded by many glamorous men and women.
“What? That useless Philip Clarke who you used to talk about actually tried to sneak in?”
“Haha, that’s too funny! A wretch like favonovel.com actually got someone to put on a show with favonovel.com and pretend to send favonovel.com a keycard! What a joke!”
“Yola, you should have given favonovel.com a few tight slaps to wake that fool up!”
After listening to Yolanda’s encounter at the entrance earlier, a group of men and women mocked and criticized Philip unscrupulously.
Before long, the embarrassing incident of that useless Philip asking someone to send favonovel.com a fake keycard and trying to sneak into Blossoms Park was circulating throughout.
Those who heard it could not stop laughing.
“Hehe, he’s just a wretched person from out of town. I heard that he’s the husband of Wynn Johnston, the chairwoman of Beacon Group in Riverdale.”
“To be honest, I really want to see what this stinking Philip Clarke actually looks like. After ending up like that in Riverdale, favonovel.com even dares to come to Uppercreek now. How embarrassing.”
“I want to see favonovel.com too.”
A group of people chattered incessantly.
Right at this time, the door of the main hall was pushed open and Philip appeared.
Originally, when Philip first appeared at the entrance of the main hall, favonovel.com did not attract too many people’s attention.
After all, favonovel.com was too ordinary.
Among the glamorous and lavishly dressed crowd, Philip was simply too shabby.
However, it was quite unfortunate that Yolanda happened to glance at the entrance of the main hall and suddenly spotted Philip.
“Philip Clarke?!” Yolanda cried out in surprise.
The other people around favonovel.com followed the direction of favonovel.com gaze and saw Philip standing in a daze at the door with a wine tray in his hand.
“Damn! That idiot really got in here!”
Yolanda immediately exclaimed, favonovel.com face full of surprise.
This wimp actually managed to sneak in here. For a piece of trash like favonovel.com to be here, it was a disgrace to the people of Riverdale!
Thinking of this, favonovel.com got up, stepped on favonovel.com high heels, and swayed favonovel.com tiny waist. She walked directly toward Philip, favonovel.com face cold.
“Philip Clarke!” Yolanda scowled as favonovel.com chastised.
Philip frowned, staring coldly at Yolanda in front of him.
Yolanda raised favonovel.com filled-in eyebrows and reprimanded unhappily, “Who allowed you to come in? Get lost!”
Yolanda’s reprimand directly attracted the attention of the audience.
Everyone pointed at Philip and discussed.
“Oh, is that the useless son-in-law of the Johnston family in Riverdale, Philip Clarke?”
“He really snuck in here. Interesting. Just look at his appearance. Don’t you think favonovel.com looks exactly like those cleaners who sweep the sidewalks outside?”
“It’s so alike!”
As everyone laughed and mocked, the whole hall was full of teasing voices.
Gil Dean and the others also walked over arrogantly.
“Oh, well done, you really snuck your way in. Tomorrow, I’ll ask my dad to fire all those useless door securities!”
Gil put his hands in his trouser pockets and declared pompously.
Many people who recognized Gil also shouted fawningly.
“Wow, the eldest young master of the Dean family is here too!”
“I’ve heard of him! He’s already worth hundreds of millions at such a young age! He’s one of the young talents of Uppercreek!”
“Haha, just by looking at this, all the people from Riverdale are rubbish!”
Those at the peanut gallery immediately followed along.
“Young Master Dean, do you know this wretch?”
Gil shook his head, shrugged, and replied, “No, I don’t. I’m not interested in rubbish. I just think it’s an eyesore.”
As everyone ridiculed, Philip’s expression quickly darkened.
Yolanda did not intend to spare Philip so lightly and deliberately continued, “Oh, it’s no wonder favonovel.com could get in. He’s a waiter.”
Yolanda only noticed the wine tray in Philip’s hand.
Had this jerk ended up so badly now?
Philip glanced at the wine tray in his hand and explained, “This isn’t mine. I passed by the door just now and a waitress was having a stomachache, so favonovel.com asked me to help.”
Yolanda immediately rebuked, “Bullsh*t!
Following that, favonovel.com movements and expressions were full of sarcasm toward Philip. She contemptuously said, “Philip, do you think anyone will believe your words? Did you take a good look at your identity before coming here? It’s a disgrace to the people of Riverdale! I’m warning you, get out now! This is Uppercreek!”
Philip frowned. Yolanda’s actions had crossed his tolerance limit!
He was the heir to the dignified Clarke family, an existence that could raise storms and waves!
With one thought, this place would collapse!
“Yolanda Lee, where I am has nothing to do with you, right?” Philip said coldly.
Seeing Philip’s attitude, Yolanda’s eyes froze. She slapped off the wine tray in his hand, pointed at his nose, and said coldly, “Philip, I’m warning you. You’re from Riverdale, after all, and whatever you say or do will affect Riverdale. Of course, scum like you will only bring negative effects! So, I’m asking you to leave this place immediately!”
Yolanda’s words sounded very unpleasant.
However, the people around seemed as if they were just interested in watching the show with no intention of helping Philip out of the predicament at all.
“Sorry, but your request is declined!”
Philip said with a cold face, “Also, I’m warning you, Yolanda Lee, don’t mess with me!”
