Chapter 749


    Philip hastily chased after her till he was outside, but after he turned a corner, there was no sign of that


    person.


    Philip searched around frantically.


    However, that figure seemed to have disappeared into thin air.


    Why?


    Was that Hannah?


    Philip grabbed his hair and felt confused.


    What exactly was going on?


    Suddenly, Cynthia appeared, and her words sounded full of meaning as she joked with him.


    However.


    She noticed that Philip seemed unwell and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    “Ahem.” Philip coughed drily, forced out a smile, and touched his nose as he said, “Nothing. The other


    party was just too enthusiastic. People who’ve returned from abroad are different indeed.”


    “Be careful or I’ll tell Wynn what you just said!”


    Cynthia red at him contemptuously.


    “I’ve sent your wife home safely. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back too.” Cynthia turned around


    and looked suspiciously at Philip again. “Are you really okay? I can’t help feeling that you’re troubled by


    something.”


    Philip chuckled and said, “It’s nothing. Oh yes, I need you to keep my identity a secret from Wynn.”


    Cynthia frowned. Although she did not know why Philip wanted to do this, she could not refuse.


    Therefore, she nodded and said, “I understand.”


    After that, the two left the hotel and went back separately.


    Just half an hour ago, in arge gym in Capital City.


    A man wearing a tight-fitting body shaper was doing pull-ups. Just from looking at his muscles, it was


    obvious he was a fitness expert. His body was shapely and full of energy.


    However, he was not a very muscr man. The outline of his body was exquisite, one that would look


    thin in clothes but muscr without. His features were defined and he had a slender body.


    He was a celebrity in this gym. He was extremely popr, and many youngdies would surround him


    all year round.


    He was a friendly person and got along quite well with those youngdies, but whenever anyone


    wanted to further deepen their rtionship with him, he would decline politely.


    At this time, there was a woman wearing ck tights beside him. She was using a yoga ball to do


    stretching exercises.


    This girl had shoulder-length short hair and very refined but thin cheeks. Her eyebrows were vivid and


    delicate. There seemed to be a sparkle hidden within the depths of her eyes.


    The only strange thing was that this woman had a dagger strapped to her waist!


    Next to that woman was a man wearing a ck vest with bulging muscles. He just stood there like a


    sturdy tree with his arms crossed over his chest. His eyes were frosty and his demeanor was like a cold


    sword that had been unsheathed!


    His entire stance screamed clearly ‘Beware, do not get close!’


    “Ash, did the old master send Vivi to Riverdale?”


    The man with a sharp gaze finished his pull-ups, jumped down, and took a towel to wipe his hands with


    a smile on his face.


    “Yes, Second Young Master.” The muscr man named Ash nodded, and when he spoke, one could


    almost feel the room vibrating. The nasal tone in his voice was heavy.

    “Well, that sister of mine just returned from abroad and isn’t aware of many things that have happened


    around here. She’s the closest to me when she was a child. I’m worried she’d be bullied in Riverdale.”


    This man was the second young master of the Joo family in Capital City and Vivi Joo’s brother, Ivan


    Joo!


    “Third Young Miss is very safe in Riverdale. If Master Ivan is not at ease, we can ask Eve to go there,”


    Ash said in a deep voice.


    “Mm.”


    Ivan sat down, wiped his face with a towel, and asked, “I heard that the Quaid family offended some


    people and got ousted?”


    “Yes. A powerful character appeared recently and the second son of the Quaid family was maimed.


    Moreover, ording to reliable sources, the entire Quaid family was ousted to the wastnds in the


    Northwest.”


    A cold light shed in Ash’s eyes.


    Ivan could not help a taunting smile. “That brat, Marcus Quaid, used to be so arrogant. He won’t forget


    the lesson so easily this time. Have you found out who did this?”


    Ash nodded and said, “We got some news. The other party’s name is Philip rke. He’s the husband


    of Wynn Johnston who’s the chairwoman of Beacon Pharmaceutical in Riverdale. ording to the


    sources, he’s a live-in son-inw with no foundation or connections, but somehow, the Quaid family fell


    under his hands. Only the old master knows the true reason behind this. This is his profile.”


    Ash handed the information in his hands to Ivan, who then flipped a few pages before he stopped in


    shock!


    At the same time, Ivan’s eyes shed with excitement and exhration.


    Philip rke?


    It was him!


    Ivan did not speak but drank half a bottle of water in one breath. With a yful look at the corner of his


    eyes, he said with a slight smile, “That’s okay. I know who he is.”
