Of course not.

Yasmin Lewis was his woman. The woman that slept with him every night.

Derrick chose to ignore what Philip told him. "I don't care who you are. If you beat up someone in my company, you'll be responsible for it!" He said with an icy expression on his face. Alas, his judgment was blinded by a woman.

He could never imagine that Philip was the mysterious person who had gotten George Thomas to call him.

If he had known about that, he would have been on his knees begging for mercy by now.

One could not blame Derrick though. Unfortunately, Wynn's husband was renowned as a useless bum.

How would a useless bum cause an uproar in his company?

Wynn could not believe that the usually reasonable Chairman Hall would act like that. He had asked Philip to take responsibility without investigating the issue.

She was livid. She was about to stand up when she noticed Philip winking at her.

Wynn discreetly sat back down.

Philip calmly turned his head and looked at Derrick. "So, you're the chairman of Beacon Pharmaceutical?"

Derrick nodded gallantly and stuck out his potbelly. "That's right, I am Derrick Hall. Don't think that I'll let this slide just because you're Manager Johnston's husband. Yasmin is the VP of the company, and it is unacceptable that you beat her up. There is only one way out of this. First, beg Yasmin for her forgiveness. Then, compensate for her medical fees."

After Derrick finished speaking, he discreetly glanced at Wynn.

A man like Derrick Hall would naturally have feelings for Wynn Johnston, who was a woman ripe for the picking.

'Why did that woman marry a useless bum?"

Yasmin stood up and pointed a finger at Philip's face. "Get him to kneel down and apologize! I want to slap him ten times!"

Yasmin was still furious about what happened earlier. Not only was she beaten up, but it was done so in front of everyone in the company. She could not take it lying down.

"Alright, darling, I'll listen to you. [I'll get him to kneel in front of you and then you can slap him ten times]," Derrick said with an eager smile. He did not think highly of Philip at all.

However, he was still sympathetic to Wynn. "However, Wynn Johnston is the manager of our marketing department. Would it be OK if you forgive her?" Was he still trying to court Wynn?

Mindy pursed her lips. "Human scum!" She muttered under her breath.

Wynn also furrowed her brows.

Yasmin was surprised. She was not Derrick's favorite after all.

However, she was an opportunist, and she knew that she ought to give some leeway to Derrick. "Alright, but Wynn has to apologize to me," she said coldly.

Derrick nodded. He turned to look at Wynn and spoke with the air of the chairman of a company, "Let's settle this once and for all, Manager Johnston. Just apologize to VP Lewis, then your husband can kneel down and slap himself in the face ten times. I don't need you to compensate for the medical fees. I know that you can't afford it anyway. What do you think?"

How moving!

Derrick smiled smugly. He thought that Manager Johnston would be grateful to him for the solution.

After all, her husband was a useless piece of trash, which was why he did not consider his feelings. However, Wynn's reaction was beyond his expectations.

Wynn could not take it anymore. She stood up and said coldly, "Chairman Hall, let this be my formal resignation notice! VP Lewis is the one at fault here. I'm not going to apologize to her! It's even more impossible to ask my husband to kneel to her!"

Derrick was surprised that Wynn bit back at him.

"You ought to think through this, Manager Johnston. If you quit your job, do you have an income? Is your useless husband able to sustain you? Don't forget that you have a daughter who needs an operation," Derrick threatened her.

He did not want Wynn to quit. That would have decreased his chances of claiming her as his.

Philip stood up and smiled calmly. "You don't have to worry about my daughter, Chairman Hall. You ought to worry about yourself."

Derrick was instantly furious. "Who do you think you are? Is it your turn to speak? Quickly kneel down and apologize to Yasmin. Otherwise, I'll get someone to ruin you!"

'How dare that Philip Clarke talk to me like that? That is absolute impudence!'

He was the chairman of a company, while Philip was only a delivery man.

The difference between the two people was like heaven and earth.

"That's right, he's useless but he talks so big! You ought to avenge me and teach him a lesson that he'll remember for the rest of his life!" Yasmin added fuel to the fire. However, Philip replied calmly. "I hope you'll still be able to speak like that after what I'm about to show you, President Hall."

He took out his phone, opened a video, and put it in front of Derrick's face.
