After hearing what the old man said, everyone was truly shocked!
Even now, to think that what was given was too little?
It was simply inconceivable that the Phillip Family, known worldwide for never being short-changed, would now consider giving sothing away for free—and even fear giving too little!
The young man fell silent too; he believed that Augustus would never dare to deceive him!
But why? What was the mystery behind that pendant that could make the always composed steward Augustus lose his composure?
"Miss Ye, do you find this acceptable? Of course, if you have any other requirents, please state them, and our Phillip Family will do everything possible to fulfill them!"
The old man asked again, respectfully.
"Yes, yes!"
Ye i hurriedly nodded her head and said, still feeling as if she were in a dream, everything seed so surreal.
"Very well! We will draft a new contract as soon as possible and deliver it personally for signing."
After hearing Ye i's words, the old man finally relaxed slightly and showed a satisfied smile.
The old man pointed solemnly at the pendant on Ye i's chest and said sincerely:
"Miss Ye, please take good care of this pendant, and also, could you relay a ssage to the person who gave you the pendant? Tell him that the Head of the Phillip Family sends his regards and is always waiting to welco his esteed arrival."
Upon hearing the old man's words, everyone was deeply shocked once again!
What did that old man just say? The Head of the Phillip Family sends his regards? And is always waiting for his esteed arrival?
Could it be that even the head of the Phillip Family held such respect and fear for this mysterious figure?
That was simply terrifying!
Probably not even the president of a country could make the head of the Phillip Family behave like this!
The group from Ali Corporation had left a long ti ago, and Ye i was still in shock, unable to snap out of it...
Ye i had completely no idea what was happening; the event had surpassed her understanding!
And Xiao Yaning was not much better off either.
Both of them stood there stupefied for a long, long ti, with a dazed look in their eyes – they didn't even notice when the other people had left. Continue reading stories on empire
It took quite so ti before the two of them began to co to their senses.
"Who in the world is he?" Xiao Yaning couldn't help asking.
"I don't know," Ye i shook her head.
Although they didn't ntion any nas, they both knew who they were talking about.
They also knew that this person was no ordinary individual.
But they had never imagined he would be extraordinary to this extent!
It was too frightening, okay!
That was the Phillip Family! A family with ancient and profound heritage that was unfathomable!
If even the head of such a family respected him to this extent, then how terrifying must his identity be?
.....
Outside the Rose Mansion, a street was lined with a shiny, vintage Bentley car.
Inside the car, besides the old man and the young boy in the back row, there was only one driver.
"Why? Grandpa Augustus, whose pendant is it actually? Why did you behave that way?"
Hamman, of course, also noticed that everything was because of that pendant and the person behind it.
The elderly man nad Augustus looked at the face of the puzzled young man and suddenly asked:
"Do you know of the Nether Temple?"
"Of course, the Nether Temple is a great marvel of the Dark World, and I have always admired them." Hamman suddenly paused, saying incredulously, "Could it be that the pendant belongs to so important figure from the Nether Temple?"
As a Young Master of the Phillip Family, he certainly had heard of the Dark World, and if it indeed belonged to soone important from there, then it all made sense.
"Not only that," Augustus shook his head and said, "It is worn by the Hall Master of the Nether Temple himself. He once visited our family, and I saw it!"
Upon hearing Augustus's words, Hamman was completely stunned. He had never imagined that the seemingly ordinary pendant could actually belong to such a significant figure!
"Now you understand why I acted as I did," Augustus glanced at the young man and said, "It's obvious that the woman has an unusual relationship with him, so we should try to accommodate any requests she may have in the future."
"Yes, I understand!" Hamman nodded solemnly, then said, "Aren't there rumors outside that he is dead?"
"I don't know what the situation is, but that's not for us to question. However, this news can certainly be reported to the Family Head."
"If that person is really not dead, things are going to get lively!"
A spark of excitent shot through Hamman's eyes as he spoke.

As for what was happening inside Rose Mansion, Su Chen was naturally unaware, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care, since his identity had already been revealed.
The most important thing for him right now, of course, was to spend ti with his wife! No, it should be to appease his wife!
"Niu Xuewen just told that you want to move your office to the sa area as the employees?"
Lin Ruoxue spoke casually, but her gaze towards Su Chen was filled with obvious scrutiny.
"Ah, that guy actually snitched."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen imdiately beca indignant:
"He has the nerve. Do you know what the won in the public relations departnt said to the mont I got there?"
"What did they say?"
"They all complained about that beast, suggesting that he tried to secretly manipulate them with implicit rules. When they refused, he would trip them up everywhere, such a scumbag!"
"Really?"
A layer of frost ford on Lin Ruoxue's face; she detested such behavior the most. However, Niu Xuewen did not seem like that kind of person!
Of course, she did not question Su Chen. In such matters, she believed he would not speak without basis, and it seems she had been mistaken.
"Of course! You should see how happy those won were when I arrived. They are afraid that if that beast really becos the manager, they will have no good days ahead!"
Su Chen spoke righteously, making himself out to be a hero:
"Several people told that if that Niu sothing guy really becos the manager, they would quit!"
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Lin Ruoxue also could not help but fear the repercussions. If that were true, the public relations departnt she had worked so hard to establish would fall apart.
The impact on Belle Corporation's upcoming foray into international markets would absolutely be huge! Not to ntion, it could damage Belle Corporation's reputation.
In that mont, Lin Ruoxue had decided to get rid of Niu Xuewen, but due to her consideration for Lin Chao, she would not act imdiately.
"Alright, I'm aware of this matter now."
Lin Ruoxue said, then turned to glance at Su Chen:
"Now tell about the incident just now, why do you need to move to where the employees work."
Su Chen had already prepared a reason for this and imdiately replied:
"I have my reasons for doing this. First, since I have just arrived and am not yet familiar with everyone, this can speed up the process; secondly, it's easier for to 'supervise' their work there. With , their director, watching, who would dare to slack off?"
"Really?"
Lin Ruoxue tilted her head and asked softly, the expression on her face taking on a significant aning, as if she had seen through Su Chen....
