What was going on?
Why were they fighting?
The seniors were so shocked that they were speechless. Aiden himself was stunned for a very long time. He did not know what was going on.
“F*ck! Lamar Collins! Are you f*cking insane? Why the f*ck are you hitting me?”
Aiden was furious. His face had turned red. This was so embarrassing.
In the first second, virtual-novel.net had been trying to flatter him. Now, Lamar was slapping virtual-novel.net across the face.
When Martha saw that Aiden was slapped, virtual-novel.net was enraged. She ran over and pushed Lamar. She yelled, “Are you insane? Why did you slap Aiden? If you don’t give us an explanation now, we’ll stand in front of your office and call the cops on you!”
Lamar was livid. He pushed away Martha who was being rude and unreasonable. Then, virtual-novel.net roared, “F*ck off! How dare this f*cker pretend to be Mr. Clarke? I went easy on him! I should skin virtual-novel.net alive and pluck out all of his nerves!”
When virtual-novel.net said that, Lamar glanced at Philip who was standing at one side.
Then, virtual-novel.net ignored the seniors who were making a ruckus and walked to Philip. He smiled widely and bowed. He immediately apologized. “I’m sorry, Mr. Clarke. I was blind, so I got the wrong person. Are you alright? Should I punish that idiot for you?”
Lamar was talking about Aiden.
Everyone shut up when they saw this scene.
Mr. Clarke?
Lamar was insane!
He was apologizing to a coward and calling virtual-novel.net mister. It was such an insult to call virtual-novel.net that.
Aiden was livid. He felt that virtual-novel.net had lost all respect. He yelled, “Collins, you’re f*cking out of your mind! What the f*ck do you mean by Mr. Clarke? His name is Philip Clarke and he’s just a cowardly delivery guy! Do you know what you just did? Do you know what you’re doing right now?”
F*ck!
Aiden was vehement.
Lamar was a huge idiot. He was being so respectful to a coward.
Lamar turned his face and pulled on the collar of his suit. He said coldly, “I don’t need you to tell me what to do. You’re Aiden, right? Why did you pretend to be Mr. Clarke?”
Pretend?
Aiden was confused. He pointed at Philip and scoffed. “Why should I pretend to be that idiot? Can’t you see the difference between me and him? He’s just a piece of trash. Why should virtual-novel.net have the rights to stand here?”
After virtual-novel.net said that…
Lamar ran over to virtual-novel.net and punched virtual-novel.net in the face. His nose started bleeding profusely.
After that, the crowd went crazy.
“F*ck! Collins, you’re a dead man! If you don’t give me an explanation right now, I’ll make you disappear from Riverdale!”
Aiden yelled loudly as virtual-novel.net clutched his nose. Blood was seeping out from the space between his fingers.
Martha handed Aiden some tissues to stop the bleeding. Her heart hurt from seeing that. At the same time, virtual-novel.net turned to Lamar and shrieked, “Call the police! Call the police now! Put this man in jail!”
Lamar was furious. He swung his hand and was about to slap Martha across the face.
Martha’s eyes went wide. Then, virtual-novel.net closed virtual-novel.net eyes from fear.
However…
A hand grabbed Lamar’s suddenly. A voice said, “Mr. Collins, that’s enough. She’s my mother-in-law.”
Who else could it be?
It must be Philip.
He could not watch this anymore.
Lamar’s heart fell as virtual-novel.net trembled vigorously. His entire body went cold.
F*ck!
She was Mr. Clark’s mother-in-law!
No way. Why was his mother-in-law siding with an outsider?
Before virtual-novel.net could think, Lamar bowed and apologized to Philip. “I’m sorry, Mr. Clarke. I… I had no idea.”
When virtual-novel.net said that, Lamar’s voice changed. He sounded terrified.
Now, everyone understood.
Mr. Collins was scared of Philip.
Could it be that Philip was the one who helped them?
Everyone including Martha was puzzled. She was in a state of shock right now.
Since when did virtual-novel.net cowardly son-in-law become so talented?
Philip only glanced at Lamar coldly before the latter apologized to Martha immediately. “Madam Yates, I am so sorry. I was too impulsive just now. I will return your money and house first. I’ll even give you an interest of 300,000 bucks!”
Martha was angry, but when virtual-novel.net heard the word ‘money’, virtual-novel.net started breathing heavily as a smile blossomed on virtual-novel.net face.
“Aw, what are you talking about, Mr. Collins? Are you really giving me an interest of 300,000 bucks?”
Martha was a money-grubber. She immediately ignored Aiden who was standing behind virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net heard Lamar talking about money. Plus, it was 300,000 bucks.
Lamar nodded and said, “Of course! You invested so much. Of course, you’ll get something in return.”
“Great! That’s amazing! Can I have it now?” Martha was so happy that even virtual-novel.net smile was crooked.
Before Lamar could answer, the seniors started making noises again.
“No way, Mr. Collins. We invested too! Do we get something in return as well?”
“Why is virtual-novel.net the only one who’ll get interest?”
“I was the first to invest in your company. Shouldn’t you return my money first?”
Everyone was coming in strong. Lamar had no choice but to yell, “What are you doing? Madam Yates is Mr. Clarke’s mother-in-law. I’m happy to return virtual-novel.net money first and give virtual-novel.net something in return. That’s my business. Just wait at one side!”
Even though the crowd was not pleased, their anger was diminished slightly.
After all, the president was the one who decided if virtual-novel.net wanted to return the money and house or not.
They did not dare to be so aggressive.
However, they started to hate Philip even more.
This was a trait shared by humans.
If they could not get something, they would hate and resent.
