Chapter 199
“Theo Zander? Which Theo Zander?” “Mr. Theo Zander from Theodorus Charity Organization?” “The underground king of
Riverdale, Theo Zander?
Why is he here?” Before the relatives and younger generation of the Yates in the courtyard came back to their senses, everyone
in the hall was starting to get antsy. Compared to an entrepreneur and well-known collector like Russell, Theo was popular in
Riverdale because of his power with the dark side. If a powerful man like that did not come here sincerely, it could be said that he
was here to take someone’s life. It was only natural for Bob to be nervous. Not everyone could get in touch with a powerful man
like Theo.
Plus, no ordinary person could invite him to anything. While everyone was in a state of shock, Theo was already walking into the
courtyard with a smile on his face. His white suit and fedora were radiating an air of dominance.
One would feel like they were being crushed by a mountain with his presence. It was Theo Zander
indeed—the underground king of Riverdale!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis overbearing presence dominated the entire party. Jess was shocked. This was an extremely
powerful and famous man in Riverdale. Why was he at the Yates’ family party? Her grandpa did not
know him. After a while, Jess’
eyes landed on Philip who was sitting calmly. Russell came here because of him, so was Theo also
here for him? No way! Impossible! A man like Theo would not just see anyone. Samson was the first
one who approached him.
He had a lot of business relations with Theo’s company, so he knew Theo.
Aside from Russell, not a single person in the party had as much wealth and power as Theo. As such,
Samson was super excited. He had to entertain this man well. ‘I didn’t expect to attract a person of this
caliber to our party.’
Peter and Bob walked over quickly. “Hello, my dear Samson,” Theo nodded his head slightly and said.
The two had business relations, so they met a few times. However, they were not close. In the next
second, everyone’s eyes widened as they lifted their ears. “Hello, Old Master Yates. I’m here for Mr.
Clarke,” Theo said with a smile. His eyes were already on Philip who was sitting near the door. “Mr. Clarke?” Bob walked over
and squinted his eyes.
He was puzzled. “Which Mr. Clarke? I’ll ask someone to call him over.” In Bob’s eyes, only an influential and powerful person
could make Theo show up at his party. The only person here with Clarke as their last name was Philip. Was it him? Impossible!
He was just a spineless bum! Everyone at the party was curious. A powerful man like Theo was here for someone.
How powerful was that person? Plus, that person also had Clarke as their last name? Everyone’s eyes shifted to Philip who was
sitting at the corner.
Before this, Russell had come all the way for him. Was Theo also here for him? “Does that good-for-nothing know Theo? How is
that possible? This is so weird,” Paula said in jealousy. She felt like she had just eaten ten catties of lemon. “That piece of trash
knows Theo Zander? No way! He’s just a piece of trash. This must be a joke.” Eric was unhappy. His eyebrows were knitted
together tightly. All of a sudden, he felt like he did not understand that coward anymore. Why did he feel an air of mysteriousness
surrounding that guy? Initially, he was not concerned about Philip at all. However, he started to feel alarmed when he saw
Russell’s attitude toward him. Now, Theo was here. Wynn did not say anything. She sat next to Philip with her eyes glued on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was curiosity in her eyes. She felt that something was different about her husband. Did his family only own restaurants?
When everyone was looking over at Philip in puzzlement, that guy was merely drinking his soup calmly. It was as if he was not
bothered at all. “Am I mistaken?” Bob was puzzled. Then, he shook his head. However, in the next second, something caused
everyone at the party to open their mouths in surprise. Theo walked through the crowd and strode over to Philip. He put his
hands together and said respectfully to him, “Mr. Clarke, it’s so difficult to get in contact with you.” Theo Zander, the underground
king of Riverdale was so respectful toward Philip. It was as if a student was greeting his teacher. “You’re here as well?” Philip
frowned. He was unhappy. What the hell was George planning? Did he want the entire world to know? How should he explain to
Wynn when he got back? Before Theo got here, he received George’s message. He told him to be low-profile but at the same
time, he could not bring shame to Philip. That was why he addressed Philip like that. When he saw that Philip was unhappy,
Theo trembled in fear. Cold sweat started to drench his back. Did he say the wrong thing? Just like that, Theo stood respectfully
behind Philip while the latter was still drinking his soup. He did not even try to be courteous. With that, everyone’s breathing
started getting heavier and heavier.
