Philip scowled in annoyance. "What do you mean I have to hold on a bit longer?" He asked with an incensed expression. The woman he was speaking with went into an awkward silence. How was she going to explain this to Philip?Philip had just called her to ask about the status of the case. He had asked her to make sure that Tommy was released from jail but she had failed to meet you with his expectations. Philip roared out again after not getting a reply."Didn't you promise me that you'll settle everything easily?" Philip asked again as he gripped his phone till his knuckles turned white. The judge sighed deeply. "I know I said that, it's just that something unexpected came up..." She tried to explain. "The jury is making it difficult for me to dismiss the case." She said with an exasperated tone. "Aren't you the judge?" Philip roared. "Dismiss the damn case and release that guy immediately!" He ordered. "It's not as simple as that." The judge replied with a sharpness in her voic

Philip was once Ethan's boss. "Oh how much I enjoyed those days..." Philip reminisced quietly. The feeling of being Ethan's superior who kept giving him impossible tasks while banging his girlfriend was the best feeling ever..."Maybe I shouldn't have even let him go in the first place..." Philip muttered with faint regret. "If he was still my slave then all these wouldn't have ever happened."Philip had only let go of Ethan and fired him because Sophia wanted it to be so. If Sophia hadn't demanded for it, Philip would have most definitely continued torturing Philip in the company. That way, he wouldn't have met Mr Clifford who made him assistant CEO and he would have also found it impossible to sue the Waltons because he never would have had the money or the help to do so. Philip could only blame Sophia for this mess. "It's not going to change anything anyway..." Philip muttered. Then he beamed into a faint and cruel grin. "Let me speak to the bastard and order him around. I'm

"Young master, I got some calls from our lawyer this morning." Andrew reported to Ethan. Ethan was seating behind his office table even as his legs were crossed over the table. There was an iPad in his hands that he kept swiping through and an inscrutable expression on his handsome face.Ethan looked up at Andrew. "What did he say?" He asked curiously. "He said the judge is putting a lot of pressure on him so that he can dismiss the case." Andrew replied. A faint smile formed on the corners of Ethan's lips and he shook his head. "That judge is the one Philip is pressuring to get rid of the case." Andrew added. "I thought as much..." Ethan sighed. "You know what to do right?" He asked Andrew. "Leave it to me!" Andrew replied boisterously and left the company. A few minutes later, Ethan's secretary knocked on his door and walked in cautiously."Caitlyn..." Ethan looked up at her curiously. "Is something the matter?" He asked. Caitlyn coyly smiled and adjusted her falling hair to

Mr Clifford's complexion had become very grim."I should fire him?" Mr Clifford asked Philip with an incredulous expression on his face.Philip looked at Ethan and nodded. He looked at Mr Clifford as though he was giving him the best advice in the world."Get rid of him fast enough or you'll regret it." Philip replied as he looked at Ethan disgustedly.Mr Clifford clenched his fists in anger."Mr Carnegie... I am trying my best to give you a modicum of respect right now. But you are going too far!""Too far? This is just friendly advice...""What is it that you want?" Mr Clifford roared with a loud voice.Philip was a bit flustered at Mr Clifford's outburst. Then he chuckled and turned to Ethan."It's simple really... Get this bastard to withdraw the case he filed against the Waltons." Philip said with a piercing glare.Mr Clifford turned to glance at Ethan who shook his head subtly."You must be out of your mind, Mr Carnegie." Clifford said in a subdued tone as though he was stating
