When Justin heard this, he narrowed his eyes.
He sat down on the sofa calmly and crossed his legs. Then, he said, "Mr. Coleman, what do you mean?"
"Heh, I thought that you and your fiancee were at least in love. I didn't expect you to only be a couple on the surface... I must have misjudged you. I thought that, even if you're a couple on the surface, you chose to tolerate her for the time being because you were worried that something would happen to the company. However, there must be some grudge in your heart. You don't believe in love anymore, do you?"
Justin said, "I believe her."
"Are you still trying to puff yourself up at your own cost? I've seen too many PR tactics like yours. Many couples in the entertainment industry have their scandals clarified by hired people. Heh! However, I never expected this to happen to you. I thought you would be more arrogant than others." Philip's voice was very cold. He no longer had the attitude he had on the phone last time. "You disappoint me!"
"However, you're indeed mother and son. You two are really good at using marriage as a bargaining chip!"
After Philip said that, he seemed a little stubborn and crazy. He smiled sarcastically. "You're the same as your mother. You're always like this. Heh, you've disappointed me! Justin, I'll make you pay for making me your enemy!"
Justin frowned.
He had sensed Philip's coldness on the phone earlier.
However, when Philip called him last time, he had vaguely wanted to give him some pointers. Furthermore, up until now, Herman had been the one making a fuss and scaring them. Philip had not really done anything yet!
At most, he had bought 5% of the shares from the Imperial League's King and supported Herman.
However, this method was child's play to him.
He had suddenly said that he wanted them to pay the price... This gave Justin a bad feeling.
He looked at Lawrence suddenly. "Go, investigate. I suspect that... Philip is in New York!"
When Lawrence heard this, he instantly straightened his back. "Yes!"
In a villa in the suburbs.
A tall and slender figure stood there. The man was wearing a black suit. Although he was almost fifty, he was still good-looking. One could tell from his strong eyes that he was American.
If Iris was there, she would have noticed that Philip had gotten old.
After all, after 20 years of hardships, their best times were gone forever.
At that moment, Philip's face was cold. He smoked a cigarette hatefully and stubbed it out in the ashtray.
The man was shrouded in smoke. He turned back, his eyes red as he smiled sarcastically. "I thought too highly of them. Hehe, I thought that her son could really let me see what love was, but they disappointed me too much! I'm so disappointed!"
Philip strode forward and paced back and forth. He murmured, "Jason, you saw it. I gave them a chance. Over the past twenty years, I've given them countless chances! But what happened in the end? She didn't withstand my test. Even her son has her blood and genes in his bones. He treated love as a marriage deal!"
Behind him stood his secretary, Jason. "President Coleman, maybe it really was Justin in that villa? After all, his comeback at the board of directors meeting today was very unexpected. The so-called overseas fundraising was just a gimmick, a smokescreen."
Philip sneered when he heard that. "How is that possible? Do you think I don't know who Nora is cheating with?"
Jason immediately asked, "Who is it?"
Philip lowered his eyes and sneered. "In order to figure out who she was cheating with, I got someone to hack into the villa's system when she entered that villa. I wanted to see who that pretty boy was."
Jason asked, "Did you hack into it?"
