Chapter 2041

“Haha!”

Wade laughed and said, “Philip boy, you think too highly of yourself. This is the branch family, not your

main family! Here, the branch family rules over the sky! Get down on your knees at once!”

Philip snorted and asked instead, “Really? Okay, I’ll kneel, then.”

As soon as Philip said that, Wade was taken aback. Was he going to kneel just like that?

The elders and people in charge of the branch family were also slightly startled. However, they were

instantly overwhelmed by anger.

“Kneel! That’s right, on your knees at once!”

“Hehe, I’m afraid it’s too late for him to kneel now!”

“Yes, he’s too insolent. lt’s useless even if he kneels now. He must be punished severely! Otherwise,

others will think that the branch family is a pushover!”

For a while, everyone’s anger was ignited again. Among them, Ted Clarke was the most furious.

At his age, he was actually slapped twice by a junior in front of all the elders and people in charge of

the branch family.

Hateful!

Simply intolerable!

He could not wait to rush over, grab the law enforcement batons, and cane Philip to death.

However, when he thought of Philip’s brutal attack on him just now, he felt weak in the knees. Thus, he

could only curse and condemn Philip along with the rest.

Philip looked at the ugly faces of this group of people.

His eyes then fell on Wade as he said blandly, “Don’t regret it.”

Wade scoffed and said, “What’s there to regret? I won’t rest until I take you down today!”

Philip nodded and bent his knees, prepared to kneel.

Clatter!

Suddenly, the crisp sound of an object falling to the ground resounded throughout the branch family’s

memorial hall.

Everyone watched as a jade thumb ring fell on the floor. On the ring was the word ‘Sovereign’ engraved

on it.

The moment they saw this ring, all the elders and people in charge of the branch family stopped

talking. All the angry curses got stuck in their throats.

They stared at the ring on the floor with wide eyes.

Wade, Desmond, as well as Hansel and Salem behind them, rushed over at the first opportunity to look

at the ring on the floor. Instantly, the four of them gasped aloud, their faces full of horror.

The expressions on their faces also changed from anger to horror, then disbelief and finally panic.

This… Was this the Sovereignty Seal?

Why the hell did this kid have the Sovereignty Seal?

Everyone could not figure it out. All of them looked at each other without daring to say another word or

even breathe aloud.

The surrounding young masters and young ladies of the branch family did not know the Sovereignty

Seal very well and looked at the ring on the floor with curiosity.

What was going on?

Why did everyone stop talking when they saw this ring?

At this moment, Philip, who was about to kneel, sneered faintly. He bent down to pick up the ring as

though he had accidentally dropped it and said casually, “Oops, sorry. It accidentally fell out. I didn’t

scare you guys, did I?”

Philip chuckled and said, the smile on his face innocent and harmless. It looked as though it was really

an accident.

Damn it!

Wade was about to vomit blood!

Was he really being careless?

He stared at the Sovereignty Seal in Philip’s hand with wide eyes for a long while before saying, “How

did you get this ring?”

Philip hummed, raised the ring in his hand, waved it at Wade deliberately. He said, “Oh, you mean this?

Uncle Tim gave it to me.”

With that said, Philip changed his tone and sneered. “So, do I still need to kneel?”

Kneel?

Wade was flustered and at a loss as he turned to look at Desmond. At this moment, Desmond’s face

was flushed red.
