Chapter 649

“His last name is Clarke, but he probably isn’t from that group.”

The butler replied, but he did not say any more than that.

“Probably? Look into it again!”

The middle-aged man lost interest in the topic and said calmly, “Keep a close eye on what the Quaids
do now. If they try anything unusual, tell me immediately. As for that Philip Clarke fellow, try to keep him
alive if possible.”

“Yes, sir.”

The butler left the room, leaving the middle-aged man alone in the large study. He continued to admire
the painting on the wall, marveling at its beauty.

However, just then, the door to the study flew open, and an old man leaning on a cane appeared at the
door.

The middle-aged man hurriedly ran to the old man and said respectfully, “Why did you come down
here, Father? It’s so late!”

The old man sat on the couch and coughed softly before saying, “I hear that the Quaid’s son was
castrated?”

This was Old Master Joo, the foundation of the Joo family and the person with the most say!

He was the emotional center of the entire family!

As long as Old Master Joo remained strong, the Joo family would always stay at the top of Capital
City’s four military families!



The middle-aged man poured his father some tea and took a seat next to the old man, saying politely,
“That’s right. The Quaids are probably tearing out their hair right now.”

“I see.” The old man nodded and said, “Did you find out who did it?”

“We did. It’s a young man named Philip Clarke, and he was pretty ruthless about it. According to our
sources, the Quaids wanted to take over Riverdale, but their boy Marcus went and caused some
unexpected trouble. He was castrated for his efforts.”

The man relayed the information to his father honestly.

“What did you say? His name is Philip Clarke?”

The old man’s expression changed suddenly, his eyes widening.

“That’s right. What’s the matter, Father? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?”

The middle-aged man hastily tried to comfort his father when he saw the old man’s sudden burst of
emotion, patting the latter’s chest.

Old Master Joo shoved his son aside, beaming brightly. “Haha, so it’s that brat! No wonder! Seven
years, it’s been seven years since I last heard of him.”

The middle-aged man was confused by his father’s rambling. “Father, do you know that Philip Clarke
person?”

He could not understand how. His father only dealt with a very specific group of people, so how would
he know a completely unrelated, unassuming young man?

“Nonsense!”



Old Master Joo stood up and rammed his cane into the tiled floor. “Have you forgotten what happened
to the first son of the Quaid family back then?”

The first son of the Quaid family…

Wait, could it…?!

But how?!

“Could it be…?!”

The middle-aged man instantly remembered something. Although the Quaids tried to hush up what
happened to their first son, the rumors still circulated within their shared circles.

People in their position were especially inclined to find out whatever information they wanted.

If he remembered correctly, the man back then had the last name Clarke as well.

Master Clarke’s actions way back then were terrifying to behold as well!

At the time, the Quaids were significantly more powerful than the Joo family. They were at the peak of
their glory.

However, as a result of that incident, the Quaids were dragged down from their perch almost instantly
within a day, and they never reached those heights again. They never once surpassed the Joos since
then!

Furthermore, that incident seemed to have left the Quaids in the bad books of the central-most
authorities in the land!

In other words, the Master Clarke from back then had ties to the pinnacle of the nation!



Even national heroes had stepped in!

Did they interfere to make peace between the two sides?

No!

The moment they showed up, they gave the Quaids a harsh scolding and publicly shamed them!

“Send someone to Riverdale right away, and stop the Quaids from avenging their second son!”

Old Master Joo leaned on his cane, his eyes gleaming with a long-hidden edge. “Also, if necessary,
don’t worry about offending the Quaids! Oh yes, Vivi is in Riverdale now, right? Tell her to find a way to
approach Philip Clarke!”

“Right, I’ll make the arrangements right now.”

The middle-aged man hurried out of the study and began issuing orders.

Old Master Joo remained in the study, his eyes faintly bright. He murmured to himself, “You won’t be
getting away this time, brat. We’ll definitely catch a hold of you.”

Capital City was a place of mysteries. Nobody knew the scenes that were unfolding beyond the thick
veil of the rain over the city right now.

The Quaids sent several squadrons out in the cover of the night. One group went to Riverdale, while
another went to the airport to pick up the grievously-wounded and still-unconscious second son,
Marcus, rushing him to Capital City Public Hospital!

As for the master of the Quaid family, he braved the cold rain as well, going straight to Tundra Peak
and looking for the legendary doctor, Vonn Nile. He begged the latter to save his son…



At the same time, the Joo family assigned some men to head to Riverdale, hot on the Quaids’ trail.

All the currents of chaos seemed to be gathering in Riverdale.

…

Wynn did not sleep well at all that night. In her dreams, she kept seeing Marcus’s disgusting mug
lunging at her as he cackled coldly!

She was jolted awake more than once!

When she woke up the next morning, she saw Philip working out on the balcony. Although he wore a
pair of shorts, she could still see the well-defined lines on his upper body and his well-built muscles!

She looked at his back, covered with sweat. As she remained silent, her thoughts began to wander, but
only she knew what she was thinking.

It seemed that she had never really noticed that her husband had a habit of working out every morning.

The more she watched, the warmer she felt inside her heart.

Thank goodness she had him.
