Chapter 187
Philip sat next to Wynn and naturally noticed Eric and Aaron walking over.
They had a devious smile on their faces. “Philip, why are you sitting in the outer courtyard near the door? This is where I used to
feed my dog.” Eric looked at Philip and smirked coldly. There was a glint of sarcasm in his eyes. Wynn’s face went red. She
wanted to stand up but a huge hand stopped her. Philip smiled calmly. “The outer courtyard and the hall are the same. It depends
on who’s the one sitting at which location to eat. Plus, the hall belongs to the Yates. I don’t care for it.” Philip had been holding in
for so long. He did not mind being arrogant for a bit. Most importantly, Eric was too hateful. He just had to create something out of
nothing. “Hehe, you’re really something else. You even know how to brag. You’re just a piece of trash. We’re doing charity by
letting you eat on a table in the house with the rest of the Yates. Do you understand, you worthless wretch?!” Eric scoffed.
Jess frowned. Initially, Jess could have sat in the hall but in order to take care of Wynn, she decided to
sit in the outer courtyard. “That’s enough, Eric. Can’t you just shut up? Do you have to argue with
Philip?” Jess frowned and said. Despite her detesting Philip, she was still Wynn’s cousin.
She would help her as best as she could. Eric’s face fell as he looked at Jess.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe did not dare to do anything to her. After all, she was the second daughter of his eldest uncle. She
was also a top student. Plus, a lot of great and good people had approached her to ask for her hand in
marriage. Jess had a bright future ahead of her. “Hehe, Philip, are you planning to hide behind my
sister like a spineless coward the entire day?” Eric jeered. “Eric, do you really despise me that much?”
Philip could not help but snort. “If it wasn’t for Wynn, I wouldn’t have even come. Let me give you some
advice, don’t provoke me and don’t provoke Wynn. If not, I’ll make you kneel on the ground and beg
me for mercy.” “What? What did you say? Me kneeling and begging you for mercy? Were you dropped
on your head when you were born? How dare you say something like that!” Eric guffawed. There was
detest in his eyes. Philip was so shameless. He even had the guts to say something like this. He
wondered who gave him the courage to do so.
“That’s enough. You need to stop this. And you should shut your mouth too!” Jess was mad. She glared
at Eric and looked at Philip angrily. This guy knew that Eric was trying to humiliate him and he was still
talking back to him. ‘You’re just a spineless in-law of the Yates. Can’t you just sit here and eat properly?
Can’t you just leave after you’re done? ‘You just have to make a fool out of yourself, huh?’ With that,
Jess started to look at Philip in anger. She even started to regret sitting here. “Philip is so arrogant.
How dare he say something so shameless.” “Right? I didn’t expect him to not only be a piece of trash
but also a piece of trash who loves to brag.” “Hehe, I don’t want to sit at the same table with him
anymore. Let’s go to another table.” The other villagers from the Yates Village who came here to attend
the party started to look at Philip as if he was a clown. They started to get up one by one to go to
another table. In an instant, the only people at this table were Philip, Wynn, and Jess. Eric was
pleased. He jeered loudly,
“Philip, don’t say I’m mistreating you. A piece of trash like you has no right sitting and eating here. If
you know your place, you should get out of here.
Do you hear me?” ‘How dare he spew nonsense about making me kneel and beg? ‘Does he think he’s Ted? ‘Ted has his own
company and his own resources. Everyone will believe anything he says. ‘How dare a good-for-nothing like Philip act so
arrogant? ‘You’re looking down on the Yates! If the old master knows about this, he’ll definitely kick you out in front of everybody!’
When he thought about this, Eric eyed at Aaron. The latter understood immediately. He walked away silently and ran into the
drawing room inside the hall. At this moment, Bob was chatting with his children and a few of his close friends. When he got in,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAaron made an angry face and yelled, “Grandpa, you have to see this! Philip was so rude! He’s looking down on the Yates and
even wanted to hit Eric!” After he said that, everyone in the drawing room started to make noise. Paula was thrilled. She wanted
so badly to run out and watch what was going on. ‘It’ll be amazing if they started fighting. ‘In that case, that spineless coward will
be kicked out and Martha will be completely humiliated!’ Samson and Peter were indifferent.
They did not have the right to speak since their father was here. On the other hand, Martha had every intention to kill Philip right
now. Philip could not even stay still for one minute! If they really started fighting, Martha would get kicked out of the Yates family
forever! Old Master Yates took his cane made out of black wood and inlaid with gold thread to slam down on the tiles on the floor
angrily. His face fell as he said, “How dare he!” In a blink of an eye, the temperature in the drawing room plummeted. Everyone
knew that the old master was mad. Martha was incredibly nervous. She started sweating, and even her legs were now trembling.
After he said that, Old Master Yates got out of the drawing room with Aaron supporting him. Then, they walked out to the outer
courtyard where the party was. The crowd followed closely behind Old Master Yates and got out one by one. At the outer
courtyard, Eric was arguing with Philip loudly. They were even engaged in a fistfight. Philip was livid. Eric had splashed some
alcohol on Wynn and called her a b*tch! He was digging his own grave! Philip grabbed Eric’s collar. There was a layer of frost on
Philip’s face. He lifted his fist and was about to punch down on Eric’s bruised face when suddenly... “Stop it!” A roar sounded in
the hall.
