Philip shrugged and said, “I don’t know, but what I do know is that I beat someone up pretty badly a while ago, and then I warned virtual-novel.net that if virtual-novel.net ever came to Riverdale again, or if virtual-novel.net ever tried to get back at Beacon, I would make virtual-novel.net suffer even worse!”
Marcus flipped out, roaring, “Famous last words! Uncle Len, show virtual-novel.net what happens to people who defy our family! Make virtual-novel.net regret it!”
The old man Len stepped forth, his eyes gleaming. With every breath, his aura seemed to expand to the size of a mountain as virtual-novel.net pounced at Philip!
Len made his move. He lifted his hand and lashed out a punch that surged toward Philip’s chest like a tsunami!
Marcus chortled ruthlessly. To him, Philip was already as good as dead!\
Anyone who opposed virtual-novel.net was dancing with the devil!
He could already imagine how that b*stard would soon be crawling on the ground and begging virtual-novel.net for mercy, wailing his eyes out.
Blake was secretly pleased as well. He did not know how strong Len truly was, but virtual-novel.net knew that anyone who could stand by the master of the Quaid household’s side had to be among the strongest martial artists in the country, if not the world!
This time, they were surely going to nab Beacon and avenge all the wrongs that had been done to him. It would be killing two birds with one stone!
Wynn’s eyes were full of worry. When virtual-novel.net saw the old man attack Philip, virtual-novel.net could not help but cry, “Watch out!”
Philip’s gaze hardened, and virtual-novel.net responded with a punch!
Bam!
Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat.
Marcus’s sneer blossomed into a grin…
However, there was an unexpected turn of events!
Len was actually pushed several steps back, swaying slightly before virtual-novel.net could regain his footing!
As for Philip, virtual-novel.net did not escape unscathed either. He took several steps back and regained his balance, standing firm in front of Wynn!
“Are you alright, Philip?”
Wynn asked anxiously.
Philip’s gaze was serious and sharp, like a blade of ice, as virtual-novel.net stared intently at that old man!
Len shook out his fingers for a bit and took a deep breath before giving Philip a kind smile. “Well done. Very well done! I didn’t expect to find such a capable young man here in little old Riverdale. The future truly is bright!”
Len did not continue fighting, his combat aura settling down as well.
Philip frowned slightly before saying with a chuckle, “No, no, I’m not that special. You flatter me, sir.”
Everyone here could see that after that first exchange of blows, Philip and Len came to a draw!
Blake and Houston Michaels looked especially shaken. They had gone green around the grills, frowning deeply and not saying a word.
Marcus was even more badly affected. He never expected Philip to tank one of Uncle Len’s punches!
He knew very well just how powerful Uncle Len was. The old man was his father’s personal guard, a national-level martial artist that the Quaids have been hiring at extremely high wages for several decades!
How could this be?
Marcus was utterly furious, pointing at Philip as virtual-novel.net roared, “Hurry up and get him, Uncle Len! Break his arms and legs!”
To Marcus, Philip was his arch-nemesis. He could not stop until Philip was dead!
Len did not initiate another fight. Instead, virtual-novel.net whispered into Marcus’s ears, “This man is not your average Joe, Young Master. We should not be getting into a fight here. Dealing with virtual-novel.net requires further planning.”
Marcus frowned even deeper at that, but there was nothing virtual-novel.net could do!
“I hope you’ll think about it carefully, Madam Johnston. I’ll only give you three days to reconsider. After that, I’ll pay you another visit!”
Marcus said viciously before storming out of the office.
Once the others left Beacon, Wynn finally felt the pressure lifted off virtual-novel.net shoulders. She slumped onto the couch, virtual-novel.net entire body shaking.
Philip hurriedly helped virtual-novel.net up, asking in concern, “Are you alright, honey?”
“W-Water..”
Wynn felt much better after virtual-novel.net gulped down an entire glass of water. She then began to appraise Philip, asking him, “Seriously, sweetie, who are you?”
He was so terrifying just now!
What was up with those moves virtual-novel.net showed off?
He looked just like one of those elite martial artists in those fighting movies!
Philip’s expression betrayed nothing as virtual-novel.net teased her, “I’m me, of course. Is something the matter, honey?”
Wynn frowned virtual-novel.net pretty brows and did not continue grilling him. She stood up, crossing virtual-novel.net arms in front of virtual-novel.net chest and standing before the large window as virtual-novel.net said wistfully, “The Quaids are coming at us hard this time, I’m not sure we can handle them. Philip, is your friend not back yet?”
Philip listened without a word before replying, “Oh, him? He’s overseas. If you need him, I can try contacting him.”
Wynn turned around and looked at Philip solemnly. “Honey, I know that your family is rich and powerful. You’ve changed a lot too. This time, however, I hope you won’t interfere. It’ll be bad for the company if things go awry. Besides, your family froze your assets, right? Why don’t you just settle down and be my husband for a bit? I can earn enough for both of us, alright?”
Wynn was seriously worried that Philip would try something funny, and then things would really get out of hand.
After all, virtual-novel.net still did not understand how Blake Michaels ended up in cahoots with Marcus Quaid.
Marcus was clearly here to pick a fight too.
Philip taught virtual-novel.net a lesson last time, and despite the fact that virtual-novel.net was the young master of the Quaid empire, Marcus had stayed his hand until now.
That made no sense. How could that be?
Was Philip really that formidable an opponent?!
Was virtual-novel.net telling the truth when virtual-novel.net said that virtual-novel.net was more than just the heir to the Capital City Clarke Group?
