Chapter 2044


    Instantly, Desmond pointed at Philip and snarled. “Bullsh*t! How dare a brat like you talk nonsense


    without blinking at a time like this? How could Gerry have done such a thing? You’re simply full of


    crap!”


    With that said, Desmond looked at Christian and was about to kneel as he shouted, “Chieftain, let me


    kneel before you. You must seek justice for my great-grandson. This brat must be killed!”


    Seeing this, Christian reached out and grabbed Desmond while saying, “Granduncle Desmond, you


    mustn’t.”


    Desmond was just yacting and went along with it as he stood up. Covering his face, he started to


    sob, “Chieftain, you must stand up for me.”


    Christian nodded and replied, “Granduncle Desmond, don’t worry. I’ll take care of this.”


    After saying that, Christian looked at Philip and scolded, “You dare to be so rampant on the first day


    you returned? Do you not put my branch family in your eyes, or do you not put me, your fourth uncle, in


    your eyes?”


    Philip frowned and asked coldly, “What do you want to do?”


    Christian looked at the branch family’s memorial hall and said after a brief silence, “Bring out the family


    discipline.”


    Instantly, all the elders and people in charge of the branch family were full of gloating smiles when they


    heard Christian’s order.


    The family discipline. This time, Philip was doomed for sure!


    Everyone gave way as Christian walked into the memorial hall. After paying his respects, Christian took


    down a purple-red cane from the high tform. This cane was engraved with the rke family rules


    and names of the ancestors.

    There were two of such canes-one for the main family and one for the branch family. It was the cane


    used by the rke family to enforce family discipline.


    This cane could be used on mindless kings and treacherous officials!


    Even if Roger vited the rke family rules, they could use the family discipline to pursue


    ountability. It could be said that once the family discipline was invoked, the matter hade to an


    end.


    In the crowd, Lex rke stood on one side, not saying a word since the beginning. With cold light in his


    eyes, he kept staring at Philip from outside the door.


    “It seems that there’s nothing more than that,” Lex mumbled under his breath.


    The personal guards behind him said softly, “Second Young Master, do we still need to make contact


    with Philip in secret?”


    Lex thought for a moment and said, “Let’s wait for now. If he can’t even get through this, he won’t be of


    much help to me.”


    All eyes were focused on Christian. At this moment, he held the cane in his hand, his searing eyes


    staring at Philip standing at the door. He said, “Aren’t you going to kneel now?”


    Instantly, all the elders and people in charge of the branch family pointed at Philip while shouting


    angrily in unison, “Kneel down!”


    “Kneel!”


    “Hurry up and kneel!”


    The voices resounded throughout the entire branch family’s memorial hall imposingly. After being


    chastised by so many people and asked to kneel, an ordinary person might really give in and kneel.


    However, Philip was no ordinary person. With his hands still in his trouser pockets, he looked


    indifferently at Christian who was standing in front of the ancestors’ memorial ques.


    Snap!


    Christian whipped the cane against the chair next to him.


    Bam!


    The chair shattered into pieces.


    “Kneel down now!”


    Christian shouted solemnly, “Men, take down this arrogant child for me!”


    In an instant, the four Dragon Guards behind him stepped toward Philip. In just a few steps, Philip felt


    the surge of pressure from these four Dragon Guards.


    “Chieftain, Third Madam is here!”


    Suddenly, a loud shout came from the main entrance!
