Chapter 1673

“Where did the dirt on your hands come from? Manager Cullen, don’t tell me you fell into the mud?”

Philip asked coldly.

Jacky was instantly flustered and quickly defended himself, saying, “Chairman Clarke, I tripped and fell

down just now.”

“If you fell, why isn’t your body dirty?” Philip said.

“This…” Jacky stuttered and could not complete a full sentence.

“Let me tell you What happened, Manager Cullen. This is the dirt from the vase which you threw from

the window, wanting to smash it over my head, right?”

When Philip said this, his voice sounded like muffled thunder and the cold light in his eyes kept

flickering. Jacky fell on his knees with a loud thud!

“Chairman Clarke, I was wrong! Please have mercy on me. Joey, help me plead with him!” Jacky said

to Joey.

His cousin was his last ray of hope.

Joey frowned, took a deep breath, and looked at Victor, saying, “Victor, we’ve never crossed paths

before today. You’ve now captured my cousin and brought so many people to cause trouble on my turf.

Are you not taking me seriously?”

Although he was beaten up by Philip just now, Joey was still an overlord in the Uppercreek brewery

industry. His identity and strength were not to be taken lightly! Even though he was outnumbered and

outmatched right now, he could not just give in!

This was exactly like the growling and intimidation between beasts before they made a move. If he

faltered at this time, he would lose for sure.

Victor smiled slightly and said, “Mr. Cullen, I don’t want to cause you trouble either, but your underlings

seem a little ignorant and messed with the wrong person. Even if I don’t make a move today, you’ll not

survive. This is all your own doing.”

Joey was stunned and asked, “The wrong person? Who are you talking about? Philip Clarke?”

Joey looked back and found Philip smiling at him, but that smile carried a hint of killing intent.

“Joey, I’ll be taking Jacky away and you’d better not stop me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being

ruthless. Also, I’ll be taking this bodyguard of yours along as well,” Philip said coldly, “We have no

grudges but you came after my life just because of a word from your cousin. I think there should be

someone else involved here. Let me guess, is it Bernard Johnston or Liam Johnston?”

“Hmph!”

Joey snorted coldly. As he looked at the crowd surrounding him, he grew angrier the more he thought

about it!

This was a mutiny!

Everyone had turned against him!

“Who’s the person I shouldn’t have messed with? Who does he think he is? He’s nothing but a useless

son-in-law! Am I someone you can bully at will? Let me tell you, in Uppercreek, all the wineries have to

listen to me! Victor Bell, if you touch me today, aren’t you afraid that you’ll offend all the wineries and

eateries around?” Joey roared like a raging beast!

A wastrel colluded with an underground figure and dared to threaten him, Joey Cullen?

Dream on!

At this time, Philip smiled slightly and asked, “Oh? Do you think Uppercreek won’t survive without the

liquor produced by Joey Brewery?”

“But of course!” Joey roared. “Do you know how much more revenue the restaurants in Uppercreek can

earn just by using the products from my brewery? Do you know how much money the hotels, karaokes,

and nightclubs will lose if they don’t have the wine produced by my distillery? Even the dozens of

venues belonging to Victor make hundreds of millions each year from my liquor! Philip, if you dare to

harm me today, half of Uppercreek won’t let you off!”

Philip’s expression was very bland. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Since you’re so

confident, I’ll make a bet with you.”

“What are we betting on?” Joey asked.

Philip sneered and said, “One word from me and there’ll not be any restaurants, bars, karaokes, and

any other businesses that sell alcohol in Uppercreek that will cooperate with you again. Do you believe

it?”
