"You're quite eloquent.” Rory smiled.

Tom shrugged and smiled faintly, "It's just words from the bottom of my heart. But you reagarded itas a clever tongue. This surprised me."

Rory's pupils contracted slightly when he heard this, and his face darkened a little. How could he nottell that Tom was mocking him for not understanding love.

Just as he was about to retort, Phoebe said, "Brother Zamani, this is not the place to talk. Let's gofirst.”

Rory nodded with a smile and said softly, “I'll listen to you."

Phoebe took two steps, then she turned around and said to Martin, "Mr. Gablehauser, if you reallywant to do a hundred million dollars financing for the SK Company, we are very glad to see that. Butwe hope this kind of important ceremony will still be held in a formal place, not in such a privateplace.”

Martin's face was a little stiff. He was very unhappy. Phoebe, this bitch, dared to contradict him likethis!

However, with Rory around, he did not dare to be as unscrupulous as before. He smiledperfunctorily as the response and then he let the bodyguards see the guests off.

After Phoebe and the others left the villa, Martin could no longer maintain the calm on his face andhis anger exploded completely. He flung the things on the table to the ground and was furious."Damn it! Damn Phoebe. Damn Rory!"

It had been a long time since he had been so angry last time. Now, how could he have the samedemeanor as before? He had become an angry descendant of a rich family's second generation.This scared Zack so much that Zack did not dare to make a sound.

Slap!

Martin slapped Zack hard in the face and gritted his teeth and scolded, "Zack! It's all your fault, youtrash, for making me be so embarrassed! The matter of financing the Scott Family is over. Get out ofhere!"

Zack was slapped, and half of his face swelled up, burning with pain. "Mr. Gablehauser, this was anaccident. I didn't know that Rory would suddenly come back. He's been away from H City for fouryears. You can't blame me for this. Mr. Gablehauser! You've promised to finance our Scott Family.You can't break your promise.”

Martin was even angrier when he heard this. He slapped Zack on the face again. "Get out of here!Get out of here!"

Zack was frustrated. The only thing he could do to stage a comeback was to successfully persuadeMartin to finance the Scott Family. If Martin didn't finance the Scott Family, then he would bedoomed!

He knelt down in front of Martin, hugged Martin's thigh, and begged for mercy with tears and snot.Unfortunately, Martin was not moved at all. Martin kicked him away rudely and asked thebodyguards to kick him out.

After Zack was kicked out, all his hopes were dashed to pieces. He stood for a long time andcouldn't help crying.

At the same time, his heart was filled with endless hatred for Phoebe and Tom. If it weren't for them,he wouldn't have been reduced to current situation!

"Phoebe! Tom! You made me be like this and I would not let you go even if I died!" Zack clenchedhis fists and gritted his teeth. His face was full of ferocity and horror, which frightened severalchildren passing by and and made those children quickly run away.

After Tom and the other two came out of the villa, no one spoke. The atmosphere was a littlestrange. In the end, Rory broke the silence. "Phoebe, how have you been in the past four years?”Phoebe hesitated at this question and did not know how to answer it for a moment.

Yeah. Had she been feeling well for the past four years of marriage?

In fact, she had an answer in her heart. She didn't feel good because of Tom

But she couldn't tell the truth. She still had to save Tom's face in front of outsiders. No matter what,Tom was her nominal husband.

"It's good." Phoebe said with a smile.

"You're lying." Rory stopped and stared straight at Phoebe, trying to see Phoebe's heart throughPhoebe's eyes.

His eyes were full of aggression, which made Phoebe panic. She didn't dare to look at Rory directlyand quickly avoided his eyes.

Rory sighed deeply. "It's all my fault. I was too immature back then. I evaded the solution of aproblem by walking away from it. After leaving, I let you have an unhappy marriage! It's my fault,but don't worry. Now that I'm back, I won't let you feel wronged again.”

With that said, Rory was going to hold Phoebe's hand!

He did this in front of Tom. It could be said that he did not show Tom any respect. Even if Tom had agood temper, he would be furious in the face of this situation.

Taking a step forward, Tom grabbed Rory's hand and said in a deep voice, "Behave yourself."

Rory was grabbed by Tom, and his face suddenly changed. He tried to struggle, but he found thathe could not get rid of Mr. Howard's hand at all. Tom's hand, like a pair of iron pliers, held himtightly.

This made him very shocked! One shall know that Rory was a Karate master. Rory was muchstronger than ordinary people. He was not a playboy like Martin who was weak. Three or fiveordinary people were not his opponents, but now he could not break free from Tom's hand?

How could that be?

According to the documents, Tom was just a coward. He couldn't fight back or curse back! But nowTom's character and strength were completely different!

All of a sudden, Rory's face turned red. Because Phoebe was here, it was not good for him to losehis temper, so he had to endure it.

When Phoebe saw that it was clear that Rory was deflated, she felt strange. Rory was very good atfighting and had great strength. She knew that. Was he not as strong as Tom?

Soon, she was relieved. After all, it was normal for Tom to have such a great strenght as he couldimprove his strength bacause he did the housework, carried heavy things at home all day long."Call it an end, Tom. Brother Zamani and I are old friends. He won't hurt me." Phoebe said.

"Okay." Tom smiled and let go of Rory.

Rory glared at Tom angrily, then said to Phoebe, "Phoebe, we haven't seen each other for a longtime. There are some things I want to talk to you alone.”

Phoebe said, "If you have anything to say, just say it here.”

Facing Phoebe's coldness, Rory's eyes flashed with gloom. He quickly hid it and looked at Phoebeaffectionately, "It won't take you long. Just a while, okay?"

Phoebe was not a heartless person. Looking at Rory's seemingly pleading appearance, her heartsoftened. After hesitating for a while, she said to Tom, "I'll go talk to him. It won't take long."

Tom nodded and said, "Go ahead. I believe in you."

After that, Tom took the initiative to leave. He walked to the side, turned on his phone, and lookedat Elliot's work report to see how much did ZQ Media's market value shoot up now?
