Chapter 204
Martha decided to pretend to be sick. She grunted and pointed at her chest.
How would Bob not be able to tell his daughter’s little tricks? He glared at her coldly and yelled, “Martha, since Philip gave this to
me, then it belongs to the Yates. If you don’t feel well, you should just ask Paula to send you back.” When she heard that, Martha
did not dare to pretend anymore. She straightened her back, her face filled with hatred. Even though Paula was jealous, she still
felt a little pleased when she saw that Martha could not get any goodies from this. Bob took the thumb ring from Russell with
trembling hands. He valued it very much. 100 million! How did Philip afford to give him something so expensive? Eric, Aaron, and
Jess were all beyond shocked. They were in disbelief. Was Philip not a completely useless piece of trash? How did he afford the
thumb ring? Eric clenched his fists. Where did that guy get such a treasure? F*ck, f*ck, f*ck! He was fuming. Eric went to one
side and urged Monkey and his gang to hurry up. Jess was also curious. She could not make sense of the situation no matter
how hard she tried. What else was this guy hiding? At the same time, she spotted Eric standing alone at the corner on his phone.
His face was filled with anger.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat was Eric doing? After pondering for a while, she took out her phone to send a message to Wynn
telling her to be careful. Russell looked at everyone’s shocked faces. He felt helpless as well. They did
not know that a thumb ring worth 100 million was merely just a toy for Philip. Mr. Clarke had previously
told him to keep his identity a secret. As such, Russell explained quickly. “I think Philip must have
gotten this ring from an antique market. This guy has such a sharp eye. He found the ‘Friends and
Spring Mountain’ painting by Tang Yin from an antique market as well.” “He found it? What’s going on?”
Bob was puzzled. Russell explained briefly before everyone understood the situation. Their suspicions
toward Philip vanished as well. It turned out that a useless piece of trash would always be a useless
piece of trash. They thought Philip had a secret identity. Who knew it was just blind luck? What a lucky
bastard! After Russell left, Bob asked his people to put away the thumb ring. The whole family looked
at each other and smiled. That coward Philip was such an idiot. He might not even know the true worth
of the thumb ring. Indeed, a good-for-nothing would not know the true worth of something valuable
even if it was in front of him.
Eric started to look down on Philip even more. He would not amount to anything his entire life. Martha
and Charles were furious. They left Yates Manor as well. “I’m so mad, I’m so mad! 100 million! It’s 100
million!
Charlie! Philip really wants us to die from anger!” On the way home, Martha kept on hurling abuses at
Philip. She was seething. “That’s enough. He already gave it away. Do you think you can ask for it
back?” Charles said helplessly. “Of course! Why not? That gift was from Philip, so it belongs to us. Why
should it go to the Yates? No, I’m not leaving. You should go back first. I won’t go back until I get the
ring.” Martha had made up her mind.
After all, she did not cultivate her snobbishness in just one or two days. How would she be willing to
part with something so valuable? Back to Philip.
Wynn and Philip sat inside the car Theo had prepared for them. Inside the car, Wynn was very
reserved. After all, the person in the front seat was the underground king of Riverdale. Philip knew
Wynn was suspecting his identity, so he asked quickly, “Theo, thank you. You can just send me to the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhospital.” Theo was shocked, but he understood. He replied with a smile,
“It’s fine. It’s nothing. Come have tea with me when you’re free. I have to thank you for what happened last time, Clarke.” What
thing? Wynn was curious. Her eyes were glued on Philip as she pinched him on the waist. She bit her lip and muttered, “Philip,
you have to explain this to me when we get back.” Philip knew what she was thinking after looking into her eyes. He felt like he
was in trouble. “Theo, I think we have some followers.” When they were about to go out of the village, the driver noticed
something was off. “Clarke, what are you going to do with them?” Theo looked at the rearview mirror and asked. “Ignore them,”
Philip replied calmly. He could guess who was behind this, but he did not want to make enemies now. Theo nodded and did not
say anything. However, in a blink of an eye, the two vans behind chased up to them. One of the vans crashed into them and
forced the Mercedes-Benz to stop. Seven to eight muscular men with tattoos got out of the two vans. They were holding things
that looked like bats.
“You f*ckers! Get out! Get the f*ck out now!” The leader of the gang was a man with a buzzcut. He looked extremely violent. He
smashed his steel bat on the Mercedes-Benz and pointed at the people inside. He roared while strutting around.
