Chapter 674
Until now, Blake had not connected Philip to this matter. “Five minutes ago,” the voice on the other end said. Five minutes ago?
Was that the time when Philip had made the call? Instantly, Blake stared at Philip and asked,
“You did this?” As soon as these words were spoken, Blake started dripping cold sweat. The people present also realized that
something was wrong!
Right at this moment, someone held his phone and exclaimed, “Look at the trending news! The
Michaels family of Golden City is currently under investigation. They’re suspected of smuggling, illegal
fund-raising, and tax evasion!” “Also, the stocks of Michaels Corp took a plunge and plummeted by 30
percent. They’ve already stopped trading!” “Michaels Corp is suspended pending investigation!” All of a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsudden, everyone in the audience looked at their mobile phones, and each piece of news was blasted
out like a broadcast! Blake was utterly frantic! He quickly scrolled through his phone. As he read each
piece of news, he was completely flustered. At this time, phone calls came continuously, all from
representatives of the company's shareholders. “Hello. What? You want to divest? “What? The trading
stopped? No way! Find a way to stabilize it! Hold it! I’ll go back and find a way! “Help me contact Cody
Bard!” Blake was in a mess.
Michaels Corp had encountered the biggest crisis in history! All of this was caused by Philip who stood
across from him. He glared at Philip with burning eyes and roared, “Philip, you’re playing with fire!
Although I don’t know what methods you used to achieve this, I can tell you that everything’s in vain!
The Michaels family has a strong backer!” “Backer?” Philip chuckled and said, “Are you talking about
Cody Bard?” After that, Philip turned on the LCD TV in the hall and switched the channel to Golden City
TV. Coincidentally, it was an urgent news broadcast! “Dear citizens, Cody Bard is suspected of
transferring interests and has been handed over to the investigation department. Among them, the
largest agency that benefited directly is Michaels Corp!” Seeing the news, Blake totally panicked. He
slumped as his feet staggered, and his body was drenched in a cold sweat.
He was doomed! Cody Bard was his backer, but he was arrested! At this time, Blake finally realized
what a big mistake he had made. Philip Clarke was not a kitten but a tiger—A tiger that swallowed
people whole without spitting out bones! “Calm down! Calm down!” After all, Blake was the head of
Michaels family and had gone through turbulent times. At this time, he did not conceal anything
anymore. He quickly took out his phone and dialed Giada’s number, saying with a panicked tone,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Madam, we’re in trouble.
The Michaels family is finished!” On the other end of the line, Giada said mildly, “Blake Michaels, you’re no longer under the
protection of the Wallis family. You have to deal with this matter on your own.” The phone disconnected right after that. At this
moment, Blake realized that he was alone and completely abandoned. He was a discarded pawn! The knight had been sacrificed
to save the queen! Blake collapsed. He closed his eyes, clutched his chest, and passed out in the hall. As for Philip, he just
looked at all this coldly. His eyes swept over everyone present before he said to Theo, “Everyone here who insulted Wynnie or
did anything to her will go bankrupt.” Philip turned and left after leaving that instruction! The people in the hall realized Philip’s
formidable methods and knelt on the ground, pleading, “Mr. Clarke, please have mercy!” However, Philip would not spare the
slightest sympathy to these people. “To Cirrus Manor,” Philip got in the car and ordered. The convoy headed toward Cirrus
Manor. At this moment, Cirrus Manor was already heavily guarded. Giada, wearing a white long skirt that reached her knees, sat
dignified and elegantly on the white goose down sofa in the hall. She was holding the Persian cat in her arms.
Vivian stood behind her. In the hall, eight guards from the Wallis family stood on two sides, all fully-armed. “Giada Wallis!” A loud
roar came from the door! Philip aggressively led a group of people and swarmed in!
