Chief Heir Officer novel Chapter 542

Meanwhile, Philip and Wynn arrived at the hospital, where they treated their wounds.

Wynn was very worried. Looking at Philip, she asked, “Did those men say that you lost access to the family funds?”

In other words, her husband was now penniless and broke, right?

Wynn was worried that Philip would do something irrational as a result.

Philip held Wynn’s soft little hand and said with a gentle smile, “It’s alright, don’t worry. At the worst, we’ll just start over. We made it this far, haven’t we? I can solve any problem as long as I have you.”

Wynn smiled, tears in her eyes. Her heart was full as she leaned into Philip’s chest, saying, “If it really comes down to that, honey, I’ll resign from the company, and we can move out of the villa. I think my mom has some money too, so we can buy another house and start a small breakfast shop. How does that sound?”

Philip hugged Wynn and nodded. “Sure, sounds good.”

‘Don’t worry, honey, we’ll be fine.

‘I’ll sweep away every obstacle in your path.

‘Even without the support of the Clarkes, I am far from good-for-nothing trash.’

The next day.

Wynn went to work, while Philip went to the largest hotel in Riverdale.

In the presidential suite.

Philip met Buffer.

Last night, Philip had issued Buffer an emergency summons.

Buffer did not come to Riverdale for the Yates family fiasco last time because of Jess’s choice.

When he saw Philip this time, Buffer looked quite excited. He held his arms out wide and gave Philip a big hug, saying, “Oh, my dear Master Clarke! I’m so glad to finally see you!”

Philip smiled and went straight to the point. “I want to activate all of the resources you’ve arranged in this country over the years, Buffer.”

“All of them?”

Buffer looked at Philip in confusion.

“All of them.”

Philip repeated.

Buffer thought it over and said with some hesitation, “My dear Master Clarke, I am your personal butler, and you are the only reason I managed to make it big in the finance world. I will naturally heed your every order. Nevertheless, I must remind you that it’s not time to activate all your resources here yet. It will be detrimental to your master plan. Are you certain?”

“I am!”

Philip said in all seriousness.

As long as it was for Wynn, he could do anything. He would even give her the world if she wanted it!

After so many years of preparation, it was time for him to show his hand!

Upon leaving the presidential suite, Philip made a beeline for Beacon.

Wynn was in the conference room right now, faced with a terrible headache. She was being confronted by all sides.

The members of the company board were all here. Led by the Michaels, they were pushing her to immediately announce the distribution of profits for the new drug.

Blake took the main seat, sitting there nonchalantly as he looked at Wynn, who was trembling with rage. He scoffed, “You have to give me a proper answer today, Madam Johnston. All our clients have suspended their contracts and our producers have stopped production as well. Right now, Beacon is sitting on a very short fuse.”

He did not even bother veiling his threat.

“That’s right, Madam Johnston, everyone’s waiting for your decision.”

“Hmph, she’s nothing more than a mascot. We only nominated her back then to be our puppet. Do you really think she can save the company?”

“She’s just like her husband, they’re both trash! Resign! Not everyone can be the chairperson willy-nilly, you know.”

Suddenly, the members of the board were all taunting her, their words sharp and ruthless.

Wynn’s body was shaking. Right now, she was isolated and on her own amidst the rain of insults.

“Sorry, everyone, but we’re coming up with a plan right now. Trust me, there will soon be new clients and producers for us. Miss Cain is negotiating new contracts as we speak.”

Wynn tried to explain with a smile.

However, all she received in return were cool looks of disbelief.

Blake harrumphed. “Stop trying to lie through your teeth, Madam Johnston. The Capital City Clarke Group’s investments have been frozen as well, and the company has completely halted in its tracks. If Michaels Corp pulls out as well, Beacon is done for. As for you, Wynn Johnston, you’ll be swamped in court cases and might even end up in jail. Don’t you know?”

Wynn was extremely agitated right now, but she had to tolerate it. Her eyes moist, she bowed her head and said, “Please don’t pull out now, Mr. Michaels. You’re a part of Beacon as well, and we should be working together. Trust me, as long as we present a united front, we will definitely be able to get through this crisis.”

“In that case, please beg me on your knees, Madam Johnston,” Blake suddenly said coldly.

All the older men in the conference room instantly looked at Wynn sardonically.

They were like man-eating demons now, waiting to eat up the tantalizingly beautiful Wynn Johnston.

Wynn was on the verge of angry tears. How could these people be so shameless?!

Even now, they were threatening her with the company.

Wynn was helpless, and behind her, Mindy was on the verge of breaking down too.

“Are you saying you won’t pull out your investments if I beg you on my knees?” Wynn asked.

“That’s right. If you get on your knees and crawl over to me, begging, the Michaels won’t end our deal,” Blake said confidently, his eyes filled with greed.

“Fine!”

Wynn said through clenched teeth after a pause.

She then resisted the psychological torture and prepared to bend her knees.

The old men just smiled at her coldly, their eyes betraying their greed as they stared at her.

All of a sudden!

Someone kicked the conference room door wide open!

“Who dares to make my wife beg?!”

Philip’s rage rolled off him in waves, his eyes burning and bloodshot as he stood at the door, looking around at everyone in the room!

The board was enraged when Philip barged in all of a sudden.

“Who allowed you to come in? Get out! Security, get him out now!”

Blake was the first one to say something. He was filled with rage.

As for Philip, he had already asked his people to investigate him. He was just Wynn’s useless husband. He depended on his woman and he also got into Beacon by using the backdoor.

Based on this, Wynn was not a good person as well.

However, Philip scanned everyone at the scene coldly and yelled, “I’ll kill anyone who dared to ask my wife to kneel!”

His statement shocked the entire room.

The coldness radiating from his entire body was scaring everyone on the board. None of them said anything.

Mindy stood at the door and looked at Philip’s powerful back. She felt ripples in her heart.

Wow!

Philip was so cool!

He looked so domineering! How manly!

Wynn was so lucky to have a husband like him.

Wynn looked at Philip aggrievedly. She held back her tears. Just now, she almost knelt to beg them.

She felt safe with Philip’s sudden appearance.

“Philip, this is a meeting for the board. You should get out.”

Wynn knew what was important and what was not. She said in a soft voice.

Then, Blake took the lead and slammed his hand down on the table. The teacup on the table jumped up. He roared, “Madam Johnston, is this how your husband should treat us? Does he know what we’re doing here? He’s just an assistant and he has the audacity to barge into the meeting room to yell at us! How rebellious!”

“You’re just a piece of trash and you don’t even know your position. Get out!”

“Madam Johnston, if you don’t give us an appropriate explanation today, we’ll take back our funding!”

“Right, apologize to us now!”

In an instant, everyone on the board was starting to gang up to attack and humiliate Philip.
