Chapter 532

“Martha Yates! You’re simply incorrigible! I’ve had enough of you! Don’t think I don’t know what wickedthings you’ve done! Things have progressed to this stage, can’t you face the reality?”

Charles roared and the whole living room resounded with his angry voice.

Martha was stunned.

She had never seen her husband in such a rage before.

“You… You dare to hit me? You hit me!”

Martha went mad and attempted to scratch Charles.

Charles was getting a headache, so he shoved Martha away, entered the study alone, and locked thedoor from the inside.

Martha sobbed and howled as she sat on the ground, beating her chest and wailing.

“Damn you, Charles Johnston, you’ve finally admitted it. You despise me for being old and dislike mefor being unreasonable, right?”

Martha wept and bawled. “Divorce! I want to divorce you! I can’t stay in this family any longer! You andWynn are turncoats, siding with Philip all the time. What’s so good about that wretch? He just has a bitof money now. Who knows if that money is even his! You two just keep licking his boots…”

After cursing for a long time, her throat became dry and Martha finally shut her mouth.

Suddenly, she recalled Tim’s final words before he left.

Whatever Philip dared not do, he would do it for him.

What was he going to do?

Would he kill her?

Thinking of this, Martha was horrified and cursed again. “I don’t believe he dares to do this! I want tosee what the Clarke family is like!”

Tim had mentioned that they would meet again.

Early morning, one day later.

“Hi, Nina, good morning.”

Philip was bored and came to Starbucks on the first floor of the building where Beacon Pharmaceuticalwas located. He wanted to buy a drink but happened to see an anxious Nina Jacques carrying a fewboxes of drinks.

This little chick’s chest was really getting bigger and bigger. Ah, no, it was getting more beautiful.

Philip always had the feeling that he had seen Nina before, but he just could not recall the specifics.

It must have happened a long time ago.

Today, Nina wore a white floral top and a short black pleated skirt that perfectly showcased her devilishfigure.

Especially that pair of fair legs—straight and slender. They really put unimaginable thoughts into men’sminds.

The area that was wrapped under the collar really made people breathless!

“Philip?” Nina exclaimed in surprise.

“Oh? You don’t seem willing to see me.”

Philip smiled awkwardly and said, “When you wanted to invite me for dinner last time, it was wrong ofme to refuse you, but I had special circumstances at that time.”

“What are you talking about?”

Nina asked dubiously before she laughed. “You’re overthinking it. I’m here to help Madam Johnstonbuy a few cups of coffee. Today, a delegate from the Michaels family of the board of directors is here totalk about financing. I’m so busy that I didn’t see you.”

“Ah, that’s how it is. Haha…”

Philip blushed. He thought Nina was mad at him and deliberately ignored him.

“I’ll take it for you. I’m going up too.”

Philip fully displayed the charms of a gentleman. In fact, he wanted to get up close and personal withNina to take a good look at this girl so that he could figure out where he had seen her before.

While waiting for the lift, Philip asked out of curiosity, “The delegate from Michaels family of the boardof directors is here to discuss financing?”

“Yes.”

Nina hooked her hair behind her ear and said with some hesitation, “Actually, I heard the generalsituation in the chairwoman’s office just now. The Michaels family plans to terminate all cooperationwith Beacon Pharmaceutical and withdraw all funds. Chairwoman Johnston is troubled over this matternow.”

Terminate all cooperation?

Philip frowned as a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

After chatting with Nina, Philip walked to the marketing department thoughtfully.

Everyone in the marketing department stood at attention and stared solemnly in the direction at theentrance of the marketing department.

Eight men in black suits formed two rows with four on each side. They walked straight in. At the center,Wynn and a middle-aged man followed.

It would be more appropriate to say that Wynn was accompanying the middle-aged man to inspect themarketing department.

This man seemed to be in his 40s or 50s. He had a stoic attitude, and in his steady footsteps exuded astrong self-confidence as well as the aura of a successful businessman.

“The pompadour is really grand. As expected of the big boss.”

A colleague mumbled next to Philip’s ears, “He’s the head of the Michaels family from Golden City andthe biggest director on our board of directors, Blake Michaels. He’s also Houston Michaels’s father.Apparently, he’s here to discuss cooperation projects with Beacon Pharmaceutical.”

Discuss cooperation?

Philip sneered in his heart. Others might not know this yet, but he had heard from Nina that this guywas here to divest!

He was backstabbing Beacon Pharmaceutical!

The Michaels family, a vassal of the Wallis family.

In that case, what role did Giada play in this?

Not too long ago, the Michaels family had invested a large amount of capital, which diluted Wynn’sshares and made both parties equal. Now that the Michaels family had decided to withdraw the capital,the meaning behind this action was very profound.

They were trying to destroy Beacon completely!

Outstanding!

This was a magnificent move!

If Beacon could not replace new shareholders to buy in the shares and fill up the vacant funds, thenBeacon would face arbitrary bankruptcy. Wynn might even be sued!

In the end, Wynn would face endless lawsuits and even jail time!

The more he thought about it, the more somber Philip got.

Giada Wallis, was she finally getting impatient?
