Chapter 455
Houston was shocked. He looked into Philip’s eyes and started to feel guilty.
What was wrong with this guy?
He did not appear to be a useless bum who depended on his woman…
“What are you doing? What do you mean who sent me? I’m the vice-chairman here! Who are you and
how dare you talk to me this way?”
Houston’s face fell. He stared at Philip arrogantly and said.
Philip did not back away. He said calmly, “Then let me give you a piece of advice, Mr. Michaels. Don’t
cross my wife, and most importantly, don’t cross me.”
Philip was the heir of an influential family. He knew how to read people.
There was something fishy about Houston Michaels.
Hehe!
Houston chuckled coldly. How dare a spineless coward threaten him.
What a joke!
He was from the Michaels family. He was someone who had the support of the Wallises from Golden
City. How dare an idiot like him have the audacity to speak to him like this. He was digging his own
grave!
“Madam Johnston, is this your wonderful husband? He’s indeed amazing. I’m going to report this to the
board. I want to see how the board will take care of this!”
Houston’s eyes twitched as he took out his phone to make a call.
However, when he looked down, his phone disappeared from his eyes.
“How childish. You’re an adult and you’re trying to tell on us. Are you brain damaged?”
Philip fiddled with the phone he had just snatched with a smile on his face.
He bought thispany.
What board? He only gave up on his power.
However, he really had no idea when a vice-chairman appeared in Beacon.
He had to ask Old Man George about thister. If it could not work, he would dismiss the board and
give everything to Wynn so that she could have absolute power over thepany.
“You! What did you say?”
Houston’s eyes went wide. This was the first time someone had the audacity to talk back to him. He
said angrily, “Madam Johnston, look! How can you let this kind of persone into thepany?”
“Enough!”
Wynn’s face was dark. She peered at Philip coldly and said, “Philip’s my husband. Everyone saw what
happened today. The people who caused themotion were outsiders. If anything happens, I’ll take
full responsibility.”
“Philip, put the phone down. You should go out first.”
Wynn knew that even though she was the chairwoman of thepany and owned 60 percent of the
shares, she did not have the power to decide anything with just one sentence.
There was a board of directors behind her. They were the true power center.
Plus, with the funding from foreign investors, Beacon Pharmaceutical was not what it used to be
anymore.
Crooks were mixed in with the honest folk. It was extremely lively.

Philip shrugged and threw the phone back to Houston. Then, he red at Houston before leaving.
Inside the office, Philip could hear a few female employees whispering among themselves.
“There’s a new vice-chairman in the office. He’s quite good looking.”
“I heard he’s one of the Michaels from Golden City. They’re quite powerful in Riverdale.”
“A young master from Golden City! I really hope a Prince Charming like him will fancy me.”
“Keep dreaming, you little wh*re!”
…
When Philip heard this, he turned around to leave the office. Then, he called Old Man George and
asked, “Old Man George, what’s going on with Beacon? Didn’t I already buy it? Why are there still
otherpanies investing in it? Who’s Houston Michaels?”
“Young Master, this was decided by Madam Wallis a few days ago. She said it’s an investment to the
group, so she needs to have someone trustworthy inside. That’s why she arranged the Michaels from
Golden City to invest in thepany.”
George was at the airport now. He replied respectfully.
Philip frowned. It was indeed Giada’s doing.
Was she starting to take action against Wynn?
Perhaps, she wanted to control him?
“Alright, I got it.”
Philip fell silent, and he hung up the phone.
Giada was too nosey. He had to teach her a lesson.
If not, she would think that he was a trapped beast.
Over here, after Houston exited the chairwoman’s office, he came to the rooftop. He dialed a number
and said in a low voice, “Madam, it’s not done yet. Someone named Philip appeared out of nowhere.
He’s Wynn’s husband.”
On the other end of the phone, an imposing female voice said, “Alright, I got it.”
After he hung up, Houston gritted his teeth. Who was Philip?
He was a bad apple. He ruined Houston’s entire n!
When it was time to get off work, Wynn went out the door and said to Philip, “Go to dinner with me. The
partners of thepany are here to discuss some matters. This is the third time. I can’t drink, so
please help me.”
Philip agreed without even considering.
