Chapter 248
His opponent was too formidable! He or she was driving him to his grave!
Samson could not understand how he had provoked such an opponent.
Nevertheless, he did not have the time to think about it. Samson quickly took out his phone and called
his father. At the moment, only his father could save him. Very soon, Bob, who was still in the Old
Johnston Manor, received a call from Samson. Bob’s ringtone was like an evil melody. Bob stared at
his phone on the table for a long time, afraid to answer it. It had been less than ten minutes since Philip
declared that he would make the Seafare Trading Company that belonged to Samson go bankrupt.
Could it be… Impossible! “Old Master, you should pick up the call. Samson must be calling you for
help,” Philip said as he sipped his tea calmly. Bob was dubious but answered the call anyway. Almost
immediately, Samson’s crying voice was from the other end of the phone, “Dad, you must save me this
time. My company has gone bankrupt. The business and tax authorities are also after me!” Ba-thump!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBob’s heart took a dive, and he gaped at Philip who was indifferent. He really had done what he said
he would do.
“Samson, what did you say?” Bob was still in disbelief as he asked in a quivering voice. “Dad, the
company… the company is bankrupt! They’re here for me, they want to take me away. Think of
something quickly!”
Samson was anxious and terrified. Once he was caught, he would be put in jail for sure! At this
moment, Bob finally flew into a panic. His eyes fell on Philip, and he asked, “Did you really do this?”
Philip nodded and said,
“That’s right, and it’s only the appetizer.” That one sentence from Philip broke Bob’s final defense.
Samson naturally heard the exchange of words from the other end of the line and asked in nervous
curiosity, “Dad, who are you talking to? Who did what?” Bob said quaveringly, “Samson, your
company’s bankruptcy was caused by Philip.” Although Bob was unwilling to believe it, the truth was
right in front of him, and he had no choice but to believe it. Philip Clarke actually did it! Who the hell
was he? Just one phone call, and in less than ten minutes, Samson’s company went bankrupt!
Horrifying! It was simply too horrifying! Was this the useless son-in-law of the Johnston family? When
Samson heard this, he was stunned. It took a long while for him to react. “Dad, how could that be? Isn’t
he just a useless piece of trash?” Samson could not believe it. He had just been discussing with
hooligans how to mutilate Philip. Now, his company was suddenly bankrupt, and the cause of it was
Philip? Bob sighed. “He’s right next to me now.” Subsequently, Bob handed the phone to Philip. Philip
took the phone from Bob and said with a laugh, “Samson Yates, you have a good son. This is just your
appetizer.” Samson thought for a moment before replying,
“Philip, I don’t know what Eric did wrong, but since you’ve already maimed him, how about the matter stop here? On the account
that you’re the grandson-in-law of the Yates, let’s just stop here.” Samson had no other choice. The wimp that he had always
looked down upon had suddenly dealt him a fatal blow. What else could he do? Resist? The representatives of the two different
bureaus were waiting for him downstairs. Contrary to his expectations, Philip said, “There are some things that once have been
done, cannot be undone. Enjoy your last few days of freedom.” Philip hung up the phone once he was done speaking and said to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBob, “Old Master, I know you’re well connected. You can start setting up your defenses now. I hope you don’t disappoint me.”
Bob was taken aback, and his heart began to pound wildly. However, all of a sudden, his gaze became resolute as he asked,
“Philip Clarke, are you sure you won’t let go of the Yates?” “If the Yates aren’t destroyed, I’ll have trouble sleeping and eating.
Besides, this is the price you have to pay,” Philip replied mildly. Bob was crestfallen.
However, he had gone through countless battles over the years and had experienced strong winds and waves. He soon
stabilized his mind. “Philip, I have to admit that I’ve underestimated you. Nonetheless, I advise you not to be too heavy-handed,
to forgive and forget! The Yates family is not a force to be reckoned with. Before you do anything to the Yates, you should weigh
the price of it yourself!” Bob had thought about it thoroughly. At most, Philip only had a few connections. Hence, such action
against Samson had most likely exhausted his strength and network. Bob had also thought of the possibility that it was all a bluff.
The bankruptcy of the Seafare Trading Company was most probably the most Philip could do. Therefore, Bob was quite
confident. In Riverdale, apart from the few big families, no one else was qualified to oppose the Yates! Bob was as steady as a
mountain when he dialed a number and said, “Old Fargo, I’m facing a bit of difficulty here and need your help.”
