Chapter 490

Philip furrowed his eyebrows, displeasure brewing ice-cold in his chest. In front of him were 30 to 40

men with over ten multi-purpose vehicles stopped before the hotel’s entrance.

The Andersons of the South River District had gone too far.

Philip was infuriated. One Beacon Pharmaceutical and one investment of a billion yuan, and now he

had to deal with this insufferable aftermath.

Philip knew that none of this would have occurred without the help of someone more powerful behind

the scenes.

30 to 40 men, each a thug with a bloodthirsty look in their eyes. They were either topless so that their

tattoos were visible or clutching metal rods in their hands.

It had been many years since the last local gang fight in Riverdale, let alone an intercity one.

Especially fights where one of the parties all had ‘fraternity’ tattooed in red on their backs!

“Holy sh*t! That’s the South River District’s fraternity! Why are they here in Riverdale?”

“Oh, God, what’s happening? Fraternity? The one even stronger than our local Theo Zander, that

fraternity?”

Many of the passersby fled and hid after recognizing who these men were. They were afraid that they

would be roped in unnecessarily and face dire consequences!

“What’s happening? The previous one marked the destruction of Klaus Harris, so what’s the fraternity

here for?”

Many exclaimed, for this scene in front of them was indeed a little too much.

These were all foot soldiers nurtured by the fraternity. They were a group of die-hard followers with

weapons meant to cause serious injuries!

Noah’s menacing smirk, though forced, only seemed to grow stronger as he took in the large gang

Mitch had brought forth with him.

Mitch balled his bandaged hand into a tight fist!

Staring at Philip standing right ahead, he shouted fiercely, “You know what to do right, my brothers?

Today, someone dared to provoke the fraternity. Following the rules of the fraternity, the man is to be

axed, then fed to the fishes! As for the girl, I want her caught alive and unharmed!”

Arrogance painting his face, Mitch did not seem wary at all!

What did it matter if Philip had shown exceptional execution in the private room?

What could he do when faced with 30 to 40 men?

Philip could not wrap his head around why so many people wished to feed him to the fishes. Especially

not when they were to one who kept provoking him only to turn it around and claim that it was all his

fault.

Shaking his head dejectedly, he pulled Wynn, who had fallen into a daze long ago, and patted her

fragrant shoulder. He whispered against her pink cheeks, “It’s safer inside, honey. You can come out

after a bit.”

Shocked, Wynn shook her head at Philip. She pulled him back as she frantically interjected. “What are

you doing? There are so many of them there. To go out is to get yourself killed! I’ll call the police! We

can hide inside together!”

Wynn was terrified. Shaking where she stood, her grip on Philip tightened.

Philip shook his head and gave Wynn a persuasive look. “Don’t worry, they can’t hurt me. Wait for me,

okay? I’ll be right back.”

The corners of Wynn’s eyes suddenly dampened. She did not understand why either, but there was

nothing except unwavering trust in Philip in her chest at that moment, like how she had felt in the

private room.

Still, she was worried about Philip.

There were just too many people on the other side.

Clasping Philip’s hand in her own, she hesitated before she spoke, “Please be careful!”

Watching the scene before him, Noah felt his hatred bubble in his chest. The sight of the woman he

was chasing after being all lovey-dovey with another man sent fires of fury shooting upward from his

heart.

“Stupid b*tch, I’ll make you pay! I’ll make sure to have you pressed on my bed tonight, Wynn Johnston.

You’ll be begging on your knees for my mercy!”

The hatred in Noah’s heart was only growing.

Mitch roared and commanded with the wave of his hand, “Get him! Beat up whoever comes in between

the fraternity tonight! Beat them up until they’re incapacitated!”

At his order, members of the fraternity standing behind him ran and pounced toward Philip like starved

wolves at the sight of prey!

Mitch had no qualms with creating a ruckus, for someone would surely have dealt with the authorities

already. As long as the ruckus did not get out of control, it would not be anything money could not deal

with.

What did it matter if one or two ended up dead? All he had to say was there had been a fight between

people and pay someone to take the blame!

Mitch was no stranger to this sort of thing.

As for Riverdale’s Theo Zander?

Hah.

As if Mitch cared at all. Was it a big deal if Theo Zander were to come? As if that would stop him from

killing Philip to assert dominance!

Looking at a bandaged Mitch, Noah made his way over to speak. He sounded like he was making an

unintentional comment. “How dare he injure Sir Mitch? Had it been me, I’d break his neck as a sign of

deterrence!”

Hearing the other, Mitch frowned and quirked an eyebrow. Turning to face Noah, his expression was

one of piqued interest. He questioned, “What do you have in mind?”

Chuckling, Noah spoke with a smile, “How dare that Philip Clarke injure you, Sir Mitch? He must have

taken some sort of fearless pill! I wonder if I could possibly bother Sir Mitch with another request? I’d

like to deal with the man myself if that’s alright. I’ll give you another million!”

Noah had to bring Philip back for someone who wanted to meet him.

Two million!

This was good business!

Mitch was a businessman, though one of the underworld. He knew how much a life cost.

Smiling, he patted Noah on the shoulder. “Well since you’ve asked, Brother Noah, there’s no reason for

me to decline. Very well, then!”

Bowing in appreciation, Noah whispered into Mitch’s ear, “I’ve brought someone over as well to help,

just in case!”
