Chapter 995


    Wace’s expression was very unpleasant. The other party came to his doorstep without any hesitation


    at all.


    They were going to demand an exnation.


    Wace nced at Jerome and said coldly, “Arrange for someone just in case! This time, don’t mess


    things up again! Look for Lame Fred!”


    Jerome nodded and said, “Understood.”


    Then, Wace followed the female assistant out of the office. In the lobby on the first floor, he saw


    Philip, Don, Theo, and others who had been waiting.


    The cold expression on Wace’s face immediately turned into a friendly look as he greeted them


    cheerfully with a smile. Standing behind Philip who was looking at the interior decor of Phoenix Pavilion


    with his hands behind his back, he said, “Young Master rke, I wonder if you have anything important


    for your sudden visit?”


    Philip turned around, nced at Wace indifferently, then shed an unfathomable smile at the


    corners of his mouth. He asked, “Do you know what books I like to read?”


    Wace was startled by this question.


    The opponent was not ying by the books.


    Wace smiled superficially. “Young Master rke is a person of great vision. The books you read


    must be different from those we read. I wonder what sort of books you enjoy reading? I can get my


    men to buy me a copyter.”


    Philip nodded and stretched out his hand to Theo.


    Theo took a book from behind and handed it to Philip respectfully.


    Then, Philip flung the book to Wace. With narrowed eyes, he looked at the other party smugly and


    said, “I wonder if Boss Phoenix has read the book ‘Self-improvement Guide for Actors’?”


    With the book in his hand, Wace nced at the cover as his eyes shed with coldness.


    Was he mocking him for acting?


    Hehe.


    Very interesting indeed.


    “Young Master rke, I haven’t read this book yet. I must look at it properlyter.”


    Wace calmed the chill in his eyes and smiled slightly.


    Philip did not say anything to that. He turned around and touched a bronze statue of a beast’s head


    beside him, saying calmly, “I wonder if you’ve received any news? Just now, a group of people came


    after me and my daughter’s lives at the hospital.”


    “What? These thugs are too audacious! Young Master rke, tell me who it is and I’ll send someone to


    arrest them!”


    Wace immediately became agitated and shouted. Those who were not in the know would be fooled


    into thinking that he was worried about Philip’s safety and abhorred the evildoers.


    Philip turned around, stared at Wace intently, and said, “But the other party said they were sent by


    you.”


    There was dead silence at his words.


    The atmosphere froze.


    Philip stared at the changes in Wace’s expression before the man roared furiously. “Bullsh*t! They’re


    talking nonsense and framing me! Young Master rke, a wise person like you can’t be blindsided by


    them. Someone is trying to sow discord between us and use the auction tonight to make a fuss.”


    The performance of Wace Phoenix truly brought the qualities of an actor into full y.


    His expressions and movements were totallyparable to veteran actors!


    “Mr. Phoenix, don’t get too excited. I don’t believe that you’d do such things either. After all, I just took


    Cecil Dane down, so no one would dare to offend me at this time. Otherwise, it’d be too ignorant of


    them,” Philip said lightly, sat down, and took a sip of the tea on the table.


    This sentence held a trace of faint warning.


    Wace stood in front of him, bowed slightly, and quickly smiled. “Thank you for your trust in me. Don’t


    worry, I’ll thoroughly investigate this matter and give you an exnation!”


    “Sure.”


    Philip grinned suddenly.

    Wace was startled when he saw Philip’s sudden change of expression!


    Immediately afterward, more than a dozen street punks who were detained were directly pushed in by


    Theo’s people from the gates!


    Bam!


    More than a dozen people were kneeling in the hall on the first floor of Phoenix Pavilion.


    Upon seeing this scene, Wace frowned as his eyelids jumped wildly.


    “Mr. Phoenix, why don’t you exin it right now?”


    Philip smiled faintly and looked as if he was waiting to watch a good show.


    Wace frowned, turned his head, and red at Philip as anger welled in his heart.


    This damned junior!


    How dare Philip put such pressure on him?!


    He was trying to make Wace break the rules!


    In the end, he had to take out the people who he hired in the first ce. This would leave an


    impression on outsiders—the impression that Wace Phoenix could not protect his people!


    In that case, Wace Phoenix’s reputation in Phoenicia would go down the drains!
