Chapter 187

Philip sat next to Wynn and naturally noticed Eric and Aaron walking over. They had a devious smile on

their faces.

“Philip, why are you sitting in the outer courtyard near the door? This is where I used to feed my dog.”

Eric looked at Philip and smirked coldly. There was a glint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Wynn’s face went red. She wanted to stand up but a huge hand stopped her.

Philip smiled calmly. “The outer courtyard and the hall are the same. It depends on who’s the one

sitting at which location to eat. Plus, the hall belongs to the Yates. I don’t care for it.”

Philip had been holding in for so long. He did not mind being arrogant for a bit.

Most importantly, Eric was too hateful. He just had to create something out of nothing.

“Hehe, you’re really something else. You even know how to brag. You’re just a piece of trash. We’re

doing charity by letting you eat on a table in the house with the rest of the Yates. Do you understand,

you worthless wretch?!” Eric scoffed.

Jess frowned. Initially, Jess could have sat in the hall but in order to take care of Wynn, she decided to

sit in the outer courtyard.

“That’s enough, Eric. Can’t you just shut up? Do you have to argue with Philip?” Jess frowned and said.

Despite her detesting Philip, she was still Wynn’s cousin. She would help her as best as she could.

Eric’s face fell as he looked at Jess. He did not dare to do anything to her. After all, she was the second

daughter of his eldest uncle. She was also a top student.

Plus, a lot of great and good people had approached her to ask for her hand in marriage.

Jess had a bright future ahead of her.

“Hehe, Philip, are you planning to hide behind my sister like a spineless coward the entire day?” Eric

jeered.

“Eric, do you really despise me that much?” Philip could not help but snort. “If it wasn’t for Wynn, I

wouldn’t have even come. Let me give you some advice, don’t provoke me and don’t provoke Wynn. If

not, I’ll make you kneel on the ground and beg me for mercy.”

“What? What did you say? Me kneeling and begging you for mercy? Were you dropped on your head

when you were born? How dare you say something like that!”

Eric guffawed. There was detest in his eyes.

Philip was so shameless.

He even had the guts to say something like this. He wondered who gave him the courage to do so.

“That’s enough. You need to stop this. And you should shut your mouth too!”

Jess was mad. She glared at Eric and looked at Philip angrily.

This guy knew that Eric was trying to humiliate him and he was still talking back to him.

‘You’re just a spineless in-law of the Yates. Can’t you just sit here and eat properly? Can’t you just

leave after you’re done?

‘You just have to make a fool out of yourself, huh?’

With that, Jess started to look at Philip in anger. She even started to regret sitting here.

“Philip is so arrogant. How dare he say something so shameless.”

“Right? I didn’t expect him to not only be a piece of trash but also a piece of trash who loves to brag.”

“Hehe, I don’t want to sit at the same table with him anymore. Let’s go to another table.”

The other villagers from the Yates Village who came here to attend the party started to look at Philip as

if he was a clown.

They started to get up one by one to go to another table.

In an instant, the only people at this table were Philip, Wynn, and Jess.

Eric was pleased. He jeered loudly, “Philip, don’t say I’m mistreating you. A piece of trash like you has

no right sitting and eating here. If you know your place, you should get out of here. Do you hear me?”

‘How dare he spew nonsense about making me kneel and beg?

‘Does he think he’s Ted?

‘Ted has his own company and his own resources. Everyone will believe anything he says.

‘How dare a good-for-nothing like Philip act so arrogant?

‘You’re looking down on the Yates! If the old master knows about this, he’ll definitely kick you out in

front of everybody!’

When he thought about this, Eric eyed at Aaron. The latter understood immediately. He walked away

silently and ran into the drawing room inside the hall.

At this moment, Bob was chatting with his children and a few of his close friends.

When he got in, Aaron made an angry face and yelled, “Grandpa, you have to see this! Philip was so

rude! He’s looking down on the Yates and even wanted to hit Eric!”

After he said that, everyone in the drawing room started to make noise.

Paula was thrilled. She wanted so badly to run out and watch what was going on.

‘It’ll be amazing if they started fighting.

‘In that case, that spineless coward will be kicked out and Martha will be completely humiliated!’

Samson and Peter were indifferent. They did not have the right to speak since their father was here.

On the other hand, Martha had every intention to kill Philip right now.

Philip could not even stay still for one minute!

If they really started fighting, Martha would get kicked out of the Yates family forever!

Old Master Yates took his cane made out of black wood and inlaid with gold thread to slam down on

the tiles on the floor angrily. His face fell as he said, “How dare he!”

In a blink of an eye, the temperature in the drawing room plummeted.

Everyone knew that the old master was mad.

Martha was incredibly nervous. She started sweating, and even her legs were now trembling.

After he said that, Old Master Yates got out of the drawing room with Aaron supporting him. Then, they

walked out to the outer courtyard where the party was.

The crowd followed closely behind Old Master Yates and got out one by one.

At the outer courtyard, Eric was arguing with Philip loudly. They were even engaged in a fistfight.

Philip was livid. Eric had splashed some alcohol on Wynn and called her a b*tch!

He was digging his own grave!

Philip grabbed Eric’s collar. There was a layer of frost on Philip’s face. He lifted his fist and was about

to punch down on Eric’s bruised face when suddenly…

“Stop it!”

A roar sounded in the hall.
