Bang!The door of the restroom kicked open and Jess barged in.When she saw the sight before her, she turned around to leave. Before she left, however, she turned around and said, “You’ve been married for so long. Find someplace better if you want to be intimate with each other.”After Jess left, Philip said in annoyance, “There must be something wrong with this woman’s head. She can’t bear to see a husband and a wife being happy.”Wynn rolled her eyes at him and approached him. She straightened her back and buttoned Philip’s shirt for him.Philip wanted to continue but Wynn smacked his hand away. “Stop being unsatisfied with small gains. Let’s go.”Philip shrugged helplessly. He murmured, “We’ve been husband and wife for so long. What are you scared of?”Wynn turned around and displayed a pleasing smile. She looked seductive under the sun.When they got back to the party, it was nearing the end. Philip had just sat down for one minute when he got George’s message.‘Young Ma

Bob was beyond excited at this moment.Russell was here and was even gifting him ‘Shrimp’ by Qi Baishi. This was such a precious gift!Not everyone was able to give out such luxurious gifts.Everyone followed behind Bob and came to the outer courtyard. Then, they got to the entrance.Eric was the last one to arrive. When he saw that Philip did not move, he said in despise, “What’s wrong? An important man like Russell Field is here and you don’t want to go and welcome him?”Did this guy have nails on his bottom?How could he still sit there?After Eric’s reminder, Philip thought about it and came to the conclusion that Eric’s words made sense. He got up and followed Wynn as well as the rest of the crowd. However, he stood a few meters away from the crowd. He did not want to go to the front. Philip did not want to get involved in something like this.Everyone stood at the door respectfully. A black Maybach stopped at the entrance.In an instant, the car door was opened and Russe

Russel smiled and said, “Oh, Phil and I bonded through collecting. He’s one of my most intimate friends. We’re kindred spirits.”Intimate friends?Kindred spirits?Bob was shocked. Everyone was also taken aback.What was going on?Philip was just a spineless bum. How did he know an entrepreneur with a net worth of a few billion bucks like Russell?Was Philip a collector as well?Impossible. He was so poor. Did he have the money to collect?Eric and Aaron were surprised. Philip even knew someone like this?! They had underestimated him.“I didn’t expect that Russell came here for Philip.”Everyone’s jaws dropped.Was this a joke?“Russell is a famous collector in the country and is worth more than three billion. Why is such an important man so respectful toward Philip? Something’s not right.” Jess was meticulous. She stood among the crowd and sensed that something was amiss.However, when she looked at Philip closely, she could not imagine him being a billionaire or a nouv

“Theo Zander? Which Theo Zander?”“Mr. Theo Zander from Theodorus Charity Organization?”“The underground king of Riverdale, Theo Zander? Why is he here?”Before the relatives and younger generation of the Yates in the courtyard came back to their senses, everyone in the hall was starting to get antsy. Compared to an entrepreneur and well-known collector like Russell, Theo was popular in Riverdale because of his power with the dark side.If a powerful man like that did not come here sincerely, it could be said that he was here to take someone’s life.It was only natural for Bob to be nervous.Not everyone could get in touch with a powerful man like Theo. Plus, no ordinary person could invite him to anything.While everyone was in a state of shock, Theo was already walking into the courtyard with a smile on his face. His white suit and fedora were radiating an air of dominance. One would feel like they were being crushed by a mountain with his presence.It was Theo Zander inde

That was Theo Zander!Philip did not know what was good for him. How dare he be so disrespectful?Bob was the first one to be mad. He yelled at Philip, “Philip, since Mr. Zander is here for you, why are you still sitting? Who do you think you are? Do you have no manners?”After Bob’s angry shouting, Eric, Aaron, and some other people started berating him as well.“Philip, stand up and apologize to Mr. Zander now!”“That piece of trash really thinks that he’s someone special.”They were saying more and more nasty things about Philip. These people did not like Philip for a very long time now. They finally had a chance to chime in.If Theo got angry, Philip would be done for!However, Philip only lifted his head slightly and looked at everyone. Then, he grabbed the ladle and took some soup for Wynn. He said, “This is not bad. It’s good for your body. You should drink more.”Damn it!Bob was seething!This piece of trash was completely disrespecting him!When he was about to

George Thomas the billionaire!What prestige and fame he had!He had a net worth of more than ten billion and was the legend of Riverdale.The amount of wealth and connections he had could not be imagined by anyone at the scene.A powerful man like him was at Old Master Yates’ party. No one would have thought of this happening!When they heard George’s name, everyone in the hall and outer courtyard started gasping. They fell into a state of shock.Everyone at the scene including Bob, Peter, and Samson stood up. Russell and Theo also stood up to get ready to welcome this VVIP.“Who would’ve expected George Thomas to show up?”Everyone was scared. There were ominous glints in their eyes. They all stared at the entrance at the same time. They wanted so badly to see the legendary billionaire of Riverdale to appear at the door. A few luxury cars stopped outside the door of Yates Manor. Then, George got out of a black Bentley. He was wearing a grey Tang suit and holding a cane. He

“Mr. Thomas, do you have the wrong person? Look at Philip’s wretched state, he’s just a hopeless case who everyone looks down on…” Paula was unconvinced, so she blurted out. Not only did she suspect that Theo was a fake, but now, she suspected George was a fake too.Who were they? Were they blind? How would they have any connections with a penniless fool like Philip?“Ma’am, please watch your language. No one can insult my little Philip like that.” George’s tone was icy.Bob shouted as well, “Paula, shut up! One more word and you’re out of here!”Paula shut her mouth when she saw her father’s angry expression. She was as scared as a bird that was startled by the mere twang of a bow. She did not dare to lift her head anymore.Martha chuckled deviously. She said weirdly, “Oh, our Phil is the best indeed. He even knows a rich person like you, Mr. Thomas. Unlike some people whose daughter only got a nice husband after sleeping with God knows how many men. And she still dares to show

Bob knew about Philip’s relationship with Russell, and he knew that they were not that close. Naturally, his impression of Philip went back to how it was before.Philip and Russell just happened to know each other at a gallery. That piece of trash was not worth mentioning at all.It was not just Bob waiting for Russell’s appraisal, the rest of the group was also anticipating the result.Russell did not decline. He opened the box, and at the first glance, he was attracted by the jade ornamental thumb ring.This… This jade ornamental thumb ring was definitely made from jade of the highest grade!Judging from the craftsmanship and the level of polishing, this ring was not made recently but from the pre-Qing dynasty.Russell took out his magnifying glass from his pocket and started looking at it up close.With this gesture, everyone in the hall was being kept in surprise.What was going on?Was Philip’s jade ornamental thumb ring a genuine piece of antique?Eric felt his heart
