Chapter 416
Just then, a voice spoke.
“I don’t know if he was invited.”
The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in avish evening gown and thick
make-up. She sneered, “But what I do know is that I saw him collecting trash at Longford Park today.
“I don’t think a mere trash collector would know our great Miss Chloe Sommerset, would he?”
As soon as Jennie said that, the whole room erupted.
“There’s no way Miss Chloe knows someone like that! Chase him out!”
“He told such a tall tale, but he never guessed that he would be exposed just like that.”
“I can’t believe Silvia has a friend like him. What a shocker.”
Right now, everyone was looking at Philip with nothing but contempt and disgust.
Philip was unmoved in the face of all their usations. Instead, he turned to look at Jennie.
He had met earlier that day; in fact, he was the one who had her thrown out. He then looked to her side
and saw a sniggering Mickey.
So he was here too. No wonder.
Did Old Man George not manage to dig up anything on Nick Cage?
Mr. Moseby said sternly, “Are you sure, miss?”
“I can be her witness.”
Mickey stepped out of line as well.

He first gave Philip a cold sneer before turning to Mr. Moseby and saying, “I did meet this… person with
my girlfriend at Longford Park today. He had his mother-inw with him, and he said that he owned a
mansion at Longford Park. Do you buy that?”
Hahaha!
There was a roar ofughter.
That was Longford Park! How could someone as shabbily-dressed as Philip afford a ce there?
Hence, everyone just thought of it as an absurd joke.
“Well, since Master Cage has spoken, what else is there to prove?”
Mr. Moseby smiled.
Mickey Cage was quite well-known in Riverdale. Of course the butler knew him.
He was the son of Director Nick Cage. With his testimony, the truth was all but settled.
Now that he was sure, Mr. Moseby could not even be bothered to look at Philip. He turned around and
yelled,
“Guards! Take this filthy man and throw him out of here.
“How dare he intrude on our Miss Chloe’s party. We can’t let him off the hook so easily, so call the cops
and tell them we have a trespasser on our hands. Let’s see how they handle him.”
Everyone looked at lonely old Philip with pity in their eyes.
Who would dare to defend him now?
With Xavier, Mickey, and the Sommersets stacked against him, even the most influential guest here
would have to think twice.
Lynn did not say anything, but the sadistic pleasure in her eyes intensified.
Finally, someone was going to teach this piece of trash a lesson.
That was what he deserved for tricking her!
Harmony harrumphed and looked at Silvia with relish. Thetter looked like she was on the verge of
tears.
On the other hand, Mickey did not even look at Philip. He just sipped his red wine without a care in the
world.
He had trampled all over Philip while barely even lifting a finger.
To him, this was nothing at all, a matter of minute consequence. Someone like Philip was nowhere near
good enough to be his opponent.
Silvia’s friends all shook their heads. What a mess they were caught up in.
Only Silvia ran to Mr. Moseby and pleaded for mercy. However, Mr. Moseby ignored her and held up
his walkie-talkie to call the guards.
Xavier stood proudly and scoffed at Philip.
“So you’re famous for being a good-for-nothing, huh? Like I said, we’re from different worlds. I just have
to say the word and I can get you booted out of here. What about you? What can you do now?”
By now, some others were echoing Xavier’s sentiment and yelling at Philip to “get the hell out of here”.
Philip just stood there quietly, his eyes lowered and his body unmoving. No one knew what he was
thinking.
To all the outsiders, it looked like he had already given up. Just when smiles of sweet victory were
spreading across Xavier’s, Mickey’s, and Jennie’s faces…
Suddenly, an ice-cold voice cut in.
“Who’s that I hear threatening to throw him out?”
