Chapter 119
He hung up. Aiden’s entire face was red from the laughter he was holding back. Soon, though, he burst out laughing with Dan
and the others, pointing at Philip and taunting him, “Well, f*ck me sideways! Philip, are you a f*cking idiot? You want to destroy
my dad’s company and mine in ten minutes? You?” Aiden was so angry that all he could do was laugh. Had Philip gone
absolutely insane? However, Philip merely smiled calmly and said, “You’ll know soon enough.” At the same time, George was
already getting to work on his end. It was ridiculously easy for him to take down Splendor Education Group and Stardream
Media. He just had to dig up some dirt on them, right? Easy peasy. Soon enough, thanks to George’s machinations, he received
files full of Splendor Education Group and Stardream Media’s dirtiest secrets. George just gave the information a glance before
handing them to his subordinates for follow-up. After that, he picked up his phone and called his young master. “It’s all done,
Young Master. You just have to turn on the television now if you want to see it.”
At the same time, Philip asked Javier to turn the TV behind the large projector in the restaurant lobby to the news channels.
Aiden did not quite understand what was happening here. However, he had a vague sixth sense that instilled in him a
premonition of danger. Soon enough, he heard the hostess’s voice coming from the TV. “Breaking news, it has been reported
that there was a child sexual assault case at Periwinkle Star Preschool, one of the local preschools under Splendor Education
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGroup. The principal and other related persons-in-charge have been arrested. The police investigations are underway…” When
they reported that piece of news, Aiden’s face turned green! How did this happen? Did they not shut down this incident a week
ago? Why was it suddenly exposed now? It was even being reported on the largest news channel in Riverdale! Who was it? Who
was f*cking out for his family’s company? Immediately after that…
“Breaking news! The chairman of Splendor Education Group, Gordon Grant, has tunneled funds
multiple times. The police have already established a special investigation team to raid Splendor
Education Group.
They will be looking into this thoroughly!” Boom! Aiden was so scared that his legs shook and he also
lost his balance. His eyes were wide as he stared at the images on the screen. No way! His old man’s
tunneling antics had been exposed too! They were seriously done for this time! Aiden was properly
scared now. He immediately took out his phone and called his father. “Dad, what do we do? What
should we do? It’s even on TV! Hurry up and figure something out, I don’t want to go to jail.” Gordon
roared at him across the phone, “Aiden Grant! Who the f*ck did you offend?! You’ve destroyed our
entire family! You’ve destroyed us! Do you understand?!”
Aiden was stunned, his brain buzzing. He instantly raised his head and looked at Philip. The latter
looked calm and even wore a small smile.
Impossible. There was no way this was Philip’s doing. He was a useless piece of trash. He could never
do something this considerable. “Dad, I… I don’t know either. I just… Philip Clarke, he…” Aiden was
clearly panicked now, his words tumbling all over the place. Just then... “Breaking news, Stardream
Media, founded by Aiden Grant, the son of Splendor Education Group’s chairman, Gordon Grant, has
been accused of having unspoken rules and casting couch antics. A combined special forces team has
already arrested the related employees at the company, and they are now urgently seeking the CEO,
Aiden Grant…” Smack! Aiden’s phone fell from his phone and onto the floor. When he heard that news,
his brain simply stopped working. His knees gave way under him and he fell onto the floor, his eyes
losing focus and his body trembling. It was over. It was all over. As for Dan and the others, they had
made a run for it the moment they saw things going south. Philip looked down at Aiden coolly, saying, “I
told you I’d make you regret it. A punishment of this extent is not unreasonable, is it? Spend the rest of
your life making up for your sins in prison.” Aiden was terrified. He immediately pounced at Philip and
hugged his leg, tears pouring down his face as he begged, “Brother Clarke, Brother Clarke! I’m begging
you, spare me! I was wrong, I’m sorry, I really am! I won’t do anything like that again!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPlease, spare me! I don’t want to be arrested, I don’t want to go to jail. Just spare me and I’ll do
anything.” As he said that, Aiden fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly, knocking his head against
the floor until it bled! In the face of Aiden’s howls and pleas, Philip simply walked past him perfectly
calmly. Javier later called the police. Within ten minutes, Aiden was escorted out of the back door and
into the police car. Philip did not feel an ounce of mercy when he saw Aiden being taken away. Aiden
deserved every bit of this. Outside the door, Wynn had been waiting in the cold wind for more than ten
minutes. She was worried about Philip, her heart racing for some reason. When Wynn saw Philip
walking out of the restaurant safely in one piece, she immediately pounced at Philip and threw her
arms around him, hugging him tightly. “Thank goodness you’re okay.” Philip blinked, and then the
corners of his lips rose. He patted her back and said, “I’m fine.”
Wynn let go of him and gave him an angry look. “Where’s Aiden? How did you settle your fight? Also, why did Mr. Morris call you
Mr. Clarke? He was the one who gave my dad that good wine and membership card. Was the Mr. Clarke he mentioned back
then you?” Wynn asked several questions in close succession, the desire in her eyes burning strongly. Was it him?
Philip paused for a moment, patting her head and saying with a gentle smile,
“Wynn, you always wanted to know what my parents do, right? What my family used to do? I’ll tell you right now.”
