“Martha Yates! You’re simply incorrigible! I’ve had enough of you! Don’t think I don’t know what wicked things you’ve done!
Things have progressed to this stage, can’t you face the reality?” Charles roared and the whole living room resounded with his
angry voice. Martha was stunned. She had never seen her husband in such a rage before. “You… You dare to hit me? You hit
me!” Martha went mad and attempted to scratch Charles.
Charles was getting a headache, so he shoved Martha away, entered the study alone, and locked the door from the inside.
Martha sobbed and howled as she sat on the ground, beating her chest and wailing. “Damn you, Charles Johnston, you’ve finally
admitted it. You despise me for being old and dislike me for being unreasonable, right?” Martha wept and bawled.
“Divorce! I want to divorce you! I can’t stay in this family any longer! You and Wynn are turncoats, siding with Philip all the time.
What’s so good about that wretch? He just has a bit of money now. Who knows if that money is even his! You two just keep
licking his boots…” After cursing for a long time, her throat became dry and Martha finally shut her mouth. Suddenly, she recalled
Tim’s final words before he left. Whatever Philip dared not do, he would do it for him. What was he going to do? Would he kill
her?
Thinking of this, Martha was horrified and cursed again. “I don’t believe he dares to do this! I want to

day later. “Hi, Nina, good morning.” Philip was bored and came to Starbucks on the first floor of the
building where Beacon Pharmaceutical was located. He wanted to buy a drink but happened to see an
anxious Nina Jacques carrying a few boxes of drinks. This little chick’s chest was really getting bigger
and bigger. Ah, no, it was getting more beautiful. Philip always had the feeling that he had seen Nina
before, but he just could not recall the specifics. It must have happened a long time ago. Today, Nina
wore a white floral top and a short black pleated skirt that perfectly showcased her devilish figure.
Especially that pair of fair legs—straight and slender. They really put unimaginable thoughts into men’s
minds. The area that was wrapped under the collar really made people breathless! “Philip?” Nina
exclaimed in surprise. “Oh? You don’t seem willing to see me.” Philip smiled awkwardly and said,
“When you wanted to invite me for dinner last time, it was wrong of me to refuse you, but I had special
circumstances at that time.” “What are you talking about?” Nina asked dubiously before she laughed.
“You’re overthinking it. I’m here to help Madam Johnston buy a few cups of coffee.
Today, a delegate from the Michaels family of the board of directors is here to talk about financing. I’m
so busy that I didn’t see you.” “Ah, that’s how it is. Haha…” Philip blushed. He thought Nina was mad at
him and deliberately ignored him. “I’ll take it for you. I’m going up too.” Philip fully displayed the charms
of a gentleman. In fact, he wanted to get up close and personal with Nina to take a good look at this girl
so that he could figure out where he had seen her before. While waiting for the lift, Philip asked out of
curiosity, “The delegate from Michaels family of the board of directors is here to discuss financing?”
“Yes.” Nina hooked her hair behind her ear and said with some hesitation, “Actually, I heard the general
situation in the chairwoman’s office just now. The Michaels family plans to terminate all cooperation
with Beacon Pharmaceutical and withdraw all funds.
Chairwoman Johnston is troubled over this matter now.” Terminate all cooperation? Philip frowned as a
bad premonition welled up in his heart.
After chatting with Nina, Philip walked to the marketing department thoughtfully. Everyone in the
marketing department stood at attention and stared solemnly in the direction at the entrance of the
marketing department.
Eight men in black suits formed two rows with four on each side. They walked straight in. At the center, Wynn and a middle-aged
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmman followed. It would be more appropriate to say that Wynn was accompanying the middle-aged man to inspect the marketing
department. This man seemed to be in his 40s or 50s. He had a stoic attitude, and in his steady footsteps exuded a strong self-
confidence as well as the aura of a successful businessman. “The pompadour is really grand. As expected of the big boss.” A
colleague mumbled next to Philip’s ears, “He’s the head of the Michaels family from Golden City and the biggest director on our
board of directors, Blake Michaels. He’s also Houston Michaels’s father. Apparently, he’s here to discuss cooperation projects
with Beacon Pharmaceutical.” Discuss cooperation? Philip sneered in his heart. Others might not know this yet, but he had heard
from Nina that this guy was here to divest! He was backstabbing Beacon Pharmaceutical! The Michaels family, a vassal of the
Wallis family. In that case, what role did Giada play in this? Not too long ago, the Michaels family had invested a large amount of
capital, which diluted Wynn’s shares and made both parties equal. Now that the Michaels family had decided to withdraw the
capital, the meaning behind this action was very profound. They were trying to destroy Beacon completely!
Outstanding! This was a magnificent move! If Beacon could not find new shareholders to buy in the shares and fill up the vacant
funds, then Beacon would face arbitrary bankruptcy. Wynn might even be sued! In the end, Wynn would face endless lawsuits
and even jail time! The more he thought about it, the more somber Philip got. Giada Wallis, was she finally getting impatient?
