Chapter 189

Buffer?

Jess looked at Philip in confusion. There was no hint of tomfoolery on his face.

What did he mean?

Did he know who Buffer was?

He was the god of investment!

He had hundreds of billions worth of assets and was among the top in Forbes’ list of billionaires in the

world!

A person like him was looked up to by so many people. Could she meet him just like that?

“Philip, you’re getting used to talking big, huh?”

Hence, Jess thought that Philip was joking. She rolled her eyes at him and proceeded to ignore him.

If Philip knew what Jess was thinking about right now, he would be laughing his head off.

Was Buffy so great?

He only had that amount of assets because Philip asked him to keep them for him.

He shook his head helplessly and let out a bitter laugh. Then, Philip walked out of the courtyard and

came to a more secluded place. He took out his phone and found Buffer’s number after a long while.

After that, he gave him a call.

In a flash, a respectful yet excited voice sounded from the other end of the phone. His voice was

hoarse due to age, and he said with broken English, “Dear Young Master Philip, is that you? I’ve been

waiting for so long for your call. I didn’t think the honorable Young Master Philip would remember me.”

Then, a sob sounded.

Philip felt awkward and said hurriedly, “Buffy, where are you making money now?”

“Please don’t make fun of me, Young Master Philip. I’ve invested your assets in different industries all

over the world. For now, they’re worth 130 billion in total. Are you coming here to take a look?”

At this moment, Buffer was in a luxurious European-style manor. While on the phone with Philip, his

usual temperament changed. Even the ten or so maids surrounding him looked surprised.

There were not a lot of people in the world who Mr. Buffer respected.

His blonde female secretary had a pair of blue eyes and a smoking hot body. Even she was shocked

when she saw that.

“It’s fine, I’m just calling to tell you something. Come to my place when you’re free. I have a friend who

wants to meet you,” Philip said flatly.

“Young Master Philip, I’ll definitely fulfill your wishes. I’ll fly over tomorrow. Tell your friend to wait for

me,” Buffer said excitedly.

Philip said immediately, “Not too soon. Wait a while before you make your trip here. Alright, I have

something to take care of. I’ll hang up now.”

Buffer was still so kind.

“Young Master Philip, do you have anything else I can help you with?”

Buffer wanted so badly to be of some assistance to Philip.

This was the person who gave him his assets. Without Philip, there would be no Buffer.

“No need. I’m at my wife’s grandfather’s birthday party,” Philip said and hung up the phone.

After a while, Buffer paced back and forth in his huge and glorious meeting room.

“Alice, book a plane ticket to Orienta for me. I’m going to fly there tomorrow. Plus, help me find out

who’s Mr. Clarke’s wife’s grandfather. If he has any properties, we’ll invest in them,” Buffer said

excitedly. “We’ll invest one billion!”

The sexy secretary replied, “Alright, Boss. I’ll do it right away.”

After she said that, she turned around and left.

Back to Philip. He did not know Buffer had misunderstood his phone call.

Half an hour later, the Yates’ property was funded with one billion from a huge financial group.

As for now, the Yates had no idea.

Philip went back to the party and sat down next to Wynn.

“Where did you go?” asked Wynn.

“Toilet,” replied Philip.

At the party, Bob Yates was talking to his children and best friends. They were having a lot of fun.

Everyone was going up to congratulate Old Master Yates.

“I wish you a happy birthday and many more of them. Also, may your happiness be as immense as the

East Sea!” Eric put his hands together and congratulated the old master. Then, he gave him his present

and said while feeling pleased with himself, “Grandpa, I saw this at the jade market. It’s top-grade

jadeite and I crafted it into a Black Tortoise for you.”

Bob was smiling widely. He patted Eric on the shoulder and said, “Okay, my wonderful grandson. Here,

this is from me to you.”

After he said that, Bob took out a red packet for Eric.

There was a card in the red packet that had one million bucks inside.

Eric took it happily. He had only spent 100,000 bucks on the jade Black Tortoise. He made a profit this

time.

Philip saw this and scoffed inside his heart. He murmured, “Black Tortoise? Isn’t that just a thousand-

year-old tortoise?”

Wynn kicked Philip under the table. She rolled her eyes at him. “Stop talking nonsense.”

Philip shrugged and had a nonchalant look on his face.

He was not interested in all of the Yates right now. He could only smell a foul stench coming from all of

them.

Jess’ hearing was good, so naturally, she heard what was being said. She glared at Philip, her

impression of him getting worse.

Not only did this guy like to boast, but he was rude no matter which occasion it was.

Then, Aaron was next. He gave the old master calligraphy.

“Grandpa, this is the genuine inscription from the master of Chinese national culture, Kendrick Smalls.

Look at these three words. ‘Auspicious and Wealth’.”

Old Master Yates was ecstatic. He kept praising Aaron.

In only a few minutes, Aaron was able to present himself to the crowd. He was feeling proud of himself.

On the other hand, Eric’s face fell slightly.

Aaron also received a red packet. He stood at one side happily.

The eldest child, Peter, nodded slightly. His useless son had finally won against his youngest brother’s

child for once.

Samson clenched his fist secretly. He only had one son. His son became ignorant and incompetent

because he spoiled him too much. It looked like he needed to lecture him properly when they got back.

If not, Eric risked losing all of his assets.
