Philip’s eyes were cold. He sent a text message on his phone and slipped it back into his pocket. He glanced at the Cadillac behind them, gave it a thought, and followed them into the car.
Intercontinental Hotel, Presidential Suite.
Philip followed the two bodyguards into the private room and saw eight burly men in it. They were all dressed in black suits and had an icy aura like they had been through a lot. It was frightening.
At the head of the round table sat a plump, middle-aged man tucking into a lamb hot pot.
Wynn sat beside virtual-novel.net with virtual-novel.net arms folded over virtual-novel.net chest. Her icy expression looked slightly anxious.
Philip speculated. He saw through them at a glance.
The eight people looked like martial artists, so their fighting skills should be good.
As for the man who was eating hot pot, virtual-novel.net might look plump, but there was something evil in his every move.
‘He’s a tough guy!’
However, it was all nothing to Philip.
‘A useless bum?
‘I’m sorry, I’m not one.’
He did not waste a year or two training with Reed.
He might not be as good as Rick, but at least virtual-novel.net could defend himself.
Wynn was pleased to see Philip in the private room, but virtual-novel.net was also worried. She immediately got up and asked, “You’re here. Just by yourself?”
Did Phil not see virtual-novel.net message?
Why did virtual-novel.net not bring anyone?
Philip smiled gently. “It’s all right. I can handle it alone.”
Wynn was speechless. She kept winking at him, but Philip did not look at her. He went straight to the round table and sat down without a care in the world!
Wynn had no choice but to sit down too. However, virtual-novel.net kept kicking virtual-novel.net under the table to remind him.
“Honey, they’re from the fraternity in the South River District. They’re here for the Anderson family’s partnership.”
Wynn reminded with a worried look in virtual-novel.net eyes.
She did not expect that Noah would invite such a gangster to come forward. This was a threat.
An obvious threat!
Philip nodded and gave Wynn a reassuring look. Then, virtual-novel.net unceremoniously picked up the chopsticks from the table, dipped a piece of lamb into the boiling hot pot, and ate it!
Wynn was dumbfounded.
‘Was my husband always so domineering?’
The man sitting opposite Philip was Mitch Potter, the leader of the fraternity that was one of the top five underground forces in the South River District!
He had blood and lives on his hands!
He was cruel and diabolical. He handled things viciously!
It was said that virtual-novel.net even fed his wife to the fish in the river just because his wife exchanged a few words with a stranger. That stranger was castrated!
However, Mitch was still alive and well. Even the authorities could not do anything to virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net had the fraternity backing virtual-novel.net up!
It was the South River District!
It was far beyond Riverdale.
Philip ate slowly, ignoring Mitch who sat across from him.
He was full. He picked up the napkin to wipe his mouth and drank a glass of red wine. There was amusement in his slightly malicious eyes.
“Do you know that there’s one kind of person in the world I hate most, Brother?”
Mitch finally spoke with a sneer. “A deadbeat spineless coward.”
Philip took another slice of lamb and said with amazement, “This meat is good.”
Mitch’s expression sank. This was the first time someone had not shown virtual-novel.net respect!
Wynn was alarmed and kicked virtual-novel.net under the table before saying with a smile, “Mr. Potter, my husband Philip is not a smooth talker. Don’t mind him.”
Philip raised his eyebrows. Dipping the sauce, virtual-novel.net smiled and said, “Honey. This meat is good, eat it.”
Wynn only glared at virtual-novel.net and hinted to virtual-novel.net not to speak.
If virtual-novel.net annoyed Mitch Potter, they were both screwed.
Her own life did not matter. Nothing must happen to Philip!
He was Mila’s father and virtual-novel.net was going to take care of her.
Mitch laughed, got up, and walked behind Wynn. He put his hand on Wynn’s shoulder, leaned close to virtual-novel.net face to smell virtual-novel.net perfume, and unabashedly said, “I like you, Chairwoman Johnston. I’ve heard so much about the golden flower of pharmaceuticals in Riverdale. You can come to my room tonight if you like. What do you think?”
Wynn was stunned at this and held virtual-novel.net anger in check.
Philip was sitting right next to her, so of course, virtual-novel.net felt the slight trembling of virtual-novel.net body and virtual-novel.net icy expression.
“I want to punch him, honey. What do I do?”
Philip suddenly said as virtual-novel.net put down his chopsticks.
He was so conceited!
This was also the first time that Mitch had heard someone talk like that in front of virtual-novel.net since virtual-novel.net started making a living on the streets.
He would often beat others to death and throw them into the river to feed the fish!
Today, someone dared to ignore virtual-novel.net in his presence and threatened to beat him…
Wynn’s expression sank. She looked over at Philip and suddenly stood up. She said, “Don’t kill anyone.”
Then, virtual-novel.net went straight to the window and had virtual-novel.net back to everything in the private room.
She did not know why virtual-novel.net trusted Philip so much, but the way virtual-novel.net patted the back of virtual-novel.net hand under the table just now made virtual-novel.net feel safe.
Over the years, Philip had always surprised virtual-novel.net at the right moment.
At this moment, virtual-novel.net believed Philip.
Her husband was not as simple as virtual-novel.net thought.
