Chapter 630
“How are the branch families reacting?” “The head of the branch family already brought his men over, but the Fourth Madam
persuaded him to leave. The head of the enforcement hall should be here soon too. After this, members of the branch families
and enforcement hall will probably keep streaming into Riverdale to trouble Young Master Philip. After all, he did go too far this
time. He ignored the rules and even…” Cough cough. There was a bout of coughing, followed by slightly quiet panting. “I see. I’ll
leave the matters on the island to the Fourth Madam for now. You… Cough cough, go to Fernvale and convey this message…”
Back at Riverdale, at First Palace of Longford Park. Philip looked at Giada coldly, approaching her one step at a time. Right now,
Vivian was like a feral kitten with all her hackles up, protecting Giada with her life. “Do you dare get in my way?”
Philip said icily, his gaze completely devoid of warmth! Vivian was beyond surprised! She always thought Philip was just a rich
young heir who did not pose much of a threat. Right now, however, she could clearly sense an endless ocean of ruthlessness
and killing intent coming from him! The pressure he was emanating snuffed out any intentions she might have of fighting back! “I-
If you dare to hurt the madam, I’ll definitely kill you!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVivian said stubbornly, gritting her teeth and flashing a gleaming dagger.
The moment she spoke, however, someone appeared next to her and stabbed his knee into her body,
sending her flying far away. She tumbled forward and was instantly forced down. Rick gripped her
slender wrists as her dagger clattered to the floor. He had her pinned down to the ground! “Let go of
me! I’ll kill you!” Vivian raged, but her struggles were useless. Rick smiled faintly. “A girl like you
shouldn’t play with knives. Shall we have a nice long talk about our lives and dreams?” “Scram!” Vivian
barked. Philip ignored them, keeping his cold gaze trained on Giada. “What will you do now?” Giada
did not reply to his question, saying coolly, “Do you know what you’ve done, Philip? You’re lighting the
fuse between the main and branch families. You’re starting a war! If the branch family’s wrath descends
upon you, forget me, you won’t be able to withstand their ire either! When that happens, you will drag
Wynn and Mila into this too!”
Philip had gone too far! How could he do something like that?! He was setting up his own destruction!
“Haha.” Philip chuckled softly. “Everyone thinks I’m useless. The branch family especially assumed that
I’ll be easy to handle since I was away from the family for seven years and lost my foundations. But
there’s one thing they’re forgetting, and that’s the fact that I’m the main family’s only heir. That is an
unchangeable fact!” Giada did not say anything, her gaze dark. Philip played with his jade thumb ring
and continued, “To everyone else, the Sovereignty Seal is one of its kind in the world, something that
represents all our assets in one. To you and me, though, it’s merely a ring, nothing more than a
weapon. I won’t obey its summonses, and neither will you. It’s too early for you to try and subdue me
with it, Giada Wallis!” “Haha, Philip Clarke, your head is grown too big for your own shoes! What
happened today goes beyond a petty squabble between you and me. Remember, you’ve insulted the
branch families, the enforcement hall! Let’s see how you deal with the consequences!” Giada said
coldly, her expression growing darker. She had underestimated Philip for seven years. She never
thought he would grow so quickly in that time!
He was overwhelming! Far too overwhelming! Philip smiled faintly and said, “Oh, don’t worry about me.
After this, I’m turning my sights onto you.” He was talking about the Michaels family from Golden City! It

smile. “So you’re coming after me now? Well, I look forward to it.” With that, Giada turned around and
left with her subordinates.
After she left, Martha, who had been hiding in the house the entire time, finally crept out of her hiding
place. She was very shaken and terrified. After she witnessed just how vicious Philip could be earlier,
she grew even more panicked. It was not as though she had never seen that side of him before.
However, his actions tonight left too much of an impact on her. Martha carefully walked up behind Philip and asked, “Um, Philip,
are all these people your friends?” She pointed at Theo’s men. She knew Theo Zander, since they had met several times now.
Philip looked at her expressionlessly and simply ignored her. Right now, he wanted to visit Wynn and Mila at the hospital. Martha
saw that he was leaving and yelled at his back anxiously,
“W-Who are they? And who are you? Are you really my son-in-law, Philip?” He used to be so worthless, so why did his
capabilities now seem so limitless? Philip turned around and looked at Martha coolly, asking, “Do you want to know I am?”
