Chapter 998 No Negative News Would Be Released.


    Anya always called him a brute disguised in nice clothes, a man of no good. He needed to show her


    how Tristin was like when he concealed his viinous nature with his gentleman-like look.


    Tristin got in the car with his father. Seeing Tristin''s bruise, Marcel asked the driver to go to the hospital


    first.


    But Tristin rejected, "No need to go to the hospital. I am not dying anyway."

    Marcel pissed off. "What nonsense are you making? You think I loved to bow down to Phil? We are no


    match to Phil solely judging from the difference between ourpany''s revenue and his, not to


    mention the financial group backing him.


    "So you are going to watch him to torture me to death and do nothing at all?" Tristin grumbled.


    Marcel took a deep breath and said after a pause. "Let''s go home first. You tell me everything about


    what happened between you and him."


    Then he added, "If what he said was real and you actually had feelings towards his ex-wife…"


    Considering that the driver was also there, Marcel didn''t talk too much about it. He warned, "You''d


    better give up that thought as early as possible. This was the end of discussion. No matter what did he


    do to you in the past, he had no reason to pick a fight with us if we avoid making contact with him!"


    Marcel was a wise man. He knew Phil''s little group quite well. They didn''t have the habit of bullying


    others by their power and wealth and they would have never aplished like what they have now if


    not so.


    Marcel''s words made Tristin realized the fact that his family would never support him in retaliating Phil.


    But that didn''t matter. He was fine fighting alone. He wouldn''t let Phil resume to his good life after all


    the sufferings Phil had brought to him.


    Phil stole Anya from him at first. He would have been Anya''s boyfriend if it weren''t for Phil. And now


    Phil shamelessly used him of having an illicit affection towards Anya.


    He was the first one to meet Anya. He was the first one who fell in love with Anya!


    Tristin didn''t say anything after arriving home and went straight to his room. He had nothing to say to


    his family the moment his father persuaded him into giving up chasing Anya.


    "You should put that shit behind before you leave for Ascana, if you still care about your future!" Marcel


    gave this serious warning on the other side of Tristin''s door.


    Tristinpressed his lips in depression and turned on theputer to write an article, in which he


    made anint against Phil illustrated with pictures of himself getting hurt in this time andst time.


    He was determined to make the man notorious!


    However, no one paid attention to his borately constructed article as he released, even after he


    shared it with many influencers.


    Soon he got a call from his ssmate who was an intern in an influential new mediapany. His


    ssmate suggested him gingerly, "Tristin, all the media have been warned by Phil…"


    Not until this moment did Tristin begin to realize that no negative statement about Phil would be


    allowed to show in the inte. Take Phil and Anya''s marriage for example. Many people criticized their


    marriage in the inte at the first beginning, butter those people went silent.


    Nevertheless, their divorce was being discussed recently. Clearly Phil didn''t prohibit the discussion


    about them this time.


    What a heartless man Phil was, he thought, to instantly stop protecting Anya after they got divorced.


    The remarks relevant to them were mostly against Anya.


    This was the love Phil imed?


    "Actually I remind you that posting an article of this kind did no good to you. You will be critically judged


    if Phil said that you unjustly wooed his wife." As one of the close friends of Tristin, his ssmate knew


    Tristin''s affection towards Anya and that Phil had someone beat him.


    His ssmates called him out of pure kindness.


    "I work in the media industry and I am clear about the rules of this line. He can make your article


    disappear if he pays enough." His ssmate added.


    Tristin thanked his ssmate before he hung up. He deleted the article and returned to calmness.


    What a despicable man Phil was, he thought, to pay to block the spreading of the negative news about


    him.


    As a matter of fact, Tristin knew that neither he nor his father had the capability of defeating Phil. But


    he just couldn''t go along with this ending.


    He couldn''t reconcile himself to the fact that Phil took advantage of his influence and wealth to force


    Anya into loving him, to deprive her of the right to freely fall in love with others.


    That was a totally barbarian behavior!


    Suddenly someone knocked the door. It was his mother. She said, "Tristin, your wounds need to be


    cleaned. I bring you some iodine and swabs."


    Tristin took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. And then he went to open the door.


    He had always gotten along well with his mother and the conversations between them were pleasantly


    efficient.


    However, he could hear his father''s roaring the second he opened his door. His father shouted, "I am


    warning you to stay away from Phil''s ex-wife! I will never ept her as your wife even though she and


    Phil divorced."


    "Are you insane? There are so many good girls out there and you have to chase one that married


    once!"


    Marcel stated his opinion towards Anya, whichpletely shattered Tristin''s dream. His father would


    strongly oppose even if he seeded in getting Anya, not to mention the fact that Anya now shunned


    him.


    For a moment Tristin felt desperate. He didn''t want to do anything about his wounds anymore and gave


    the door a good hard m. He snarled, "I loved her. She is the best. No one else could rece her!"


    For the first time he and his father shouted at each other like this. Carrying the medicine chest outside


    the door, Menna, Tristin''s mom, nearly cried.


    She always was proud of her son since he was a child, in having good performance in study or any


    other aspects. But now his son was stupidly trapped by a woman.


    As a mother, Menna inherently didn''t have a good impression of a divorced woman, no matter how


    outstanding she appeared to be. But she was not as unconvincing as Marcel. She wouldpromise if


    her son insisted.


    But Marcel couldn''t settle for a divorced woman, not to mention that she was Phil''s ex-wife. Little


    knowledge might he have about the woman, most people in the upper ss of Riverside City knew


    about their rtionship.


    How could they continue to live in this city gracefully if Tristin married this woman?
