Chapter 197
Bob was beyond excited at this moment. Russell was here and was even gifting him ‘Shrimp’ by Qi Baishi. This was such a
precious gift! Not everyone was able to give out such luxurious gifts. Everyone followed behind Bob and came to the outer
courtyard. Then, they got to the entrance.
Eric was the last one to arrive. When he saw that Philip did not move, he said in despise, “What’s wrong? An important man like
Russell Field is here and you don’t want to go and welcome him?” Did this guy have nails on his bottom? How could he still sit
there? After Eric’s reminder, Philip thought about it and came to the conclusion that Eric’s words made sense. He got up and
followed Wynn as well as the rest of the crowd. However, he stood a few meters away from the crowd. He did not want to go to
the front. Philip did not want to get involved in something like this. Everyone stood at the door respectfully. A black Maybach
stopped at the entrance. In an instant, the car door was opened and Russell got out of the car with a smile on his face. Bob

like you to come to my humble abode and celebrate my birthday with me. What did I do to deserve this?” Bob did amazingly well
on his courtesies. Russell reached out his hand and held his. He congratulated Old Master Yates.
“How can I be absent for Old Master Yates’ birthday party? That’s why I came uninvited. I hope you don’t blame me.” Russell did
come here uninvited. Plus, he showed up only because he got a message from George.
George needed him to show up so that Philip could keep up appearances.
Russell was puzzled by this though. Did a man like Mr. Clarke need his help to keep up appearances?
Bob smiled and asked, “Um, Mr. Field, why didn’t you tell me before coming here? If you had, I could’ve
sent someone to pick you up.” Russell shook his hands and said, “Phil is here, so I thought I should
come here to congratulate you as well so it’s more joyous.” “Phil?”
Bob was puzzled. His face was filled with confusion. At the same time, Russell saw Philip among the
crowd. Instantly, his face brightened. That was the god of wealth! He invested two billion in his
company! In an instant, Russell ignored Bob and the crowd. He rushed over to Philip with a respectful
smile on his face. “Mr… Phil, you’re here! Did I come on time?”
Russell was respected by so many, but now, he was being extremely respectful to Philip. “Why are you
here?” Philip was confused. Today was Old Master Yates’ birthday party. Why was Russel here? Damn
it! This was indeed a cheap trick by that old George Thomas. He was forcing him to expose himself! “I
heard that you’re here so I came all the way to give Old Master Yates a birthday gift. What do you
think? Shrimp is a good gift, right?” Russell smiled deviously. Philip was a top tier nouveau riche.
George told him a little about his assets. He would have 100 billion in just one card of his. Russell had
a clever mind. He had to curry favors with a hidden heir of a billionaire. This way, it would be beneficial
to the development of his business and would bring him an abundance of wealth and opportunities. At
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis moment, Bob and his group of people ran over while yelling, “Mr. Field! Mr. Field, what are you
doing?” Bob glanced at Philip coldly and said, “Mr. Field, why don’t we talk inside? It’s hot out here and
it’s much cooler in the courtyard. Plus, why are you talking to him?
He’s just a nobody who’s too inferior to show in public.” It was obvious Bob was still mad at Philip. A good-for-nothing like him
was just decreasing his lifespan by appearing at his party. Now, Russell was here too. If Philip made a fool of himself, it would be
bad. When that happened, Bob and the Yates would be extremely humiliated. However, who would expect that Russell, with a
net worth of more than three billion, would want to humbly stand at the door next to Philip. His expression changed. He peered at
Bob with the manner of a chairman, “Old Master, it’s not shameful standing here with Phil.” Bob’s eyes widened as his jaw
dropped. He asked, “Phil? Mr.
Field, you came here for Philip?” Russell was annoyed that Bob was being so disrespectful to Philip. He was even regretting
giving that gift to him.
When he was about to say something, he saw Philip hinting at him with his eyes. He immediately got what he meant.
