Chapter 234 Transferring Shares to Milly

Resolving to be big–hearted and avoid arguing with these young people, Phillip finally spoke up, “You said you were looking for an apartment. If you don’t want to live on campus, you can stay at home. It’s not far from your school, and the driver can take you back and forth. Why bother living in an apartment?”

Though his comments were addressed at Milly, his eyes never met hers.

Before Milly could respond, Jordan intervened, “Weren’t you the one who wanted Milly out of the house yesterday? How could she dare to stay at home now?”

Philip felt a bit stung, realizing the truth in Jordan’s words.

Last night, in a fit of anger, when she had refused to apprentice under Master Vajra, he had indeed threatened to kick her out.

However, nobody knew that she would later choose to apprentice under Master Nirvana instead.

“Ahem, forget it. Let’s just pretend that never happened. No one will mention it again in the future.”

Jordan was unwilling to let it go that casily. His gaze was firm as he pressed on, “You should apologise to Milly.”

“Apologise?” Philip was enraged; his voice rose in indignation.

“I’m your elder! Do you expect me to apologise to you, Kids? How ridiculous!”

Throughout his life, Philip had faced countless extraordinary events. He wielded a machete in his younger days and a cane in his later years to command respect. Apologizing was simply not in his vocabulary.

The fact that he was speaking to them and offering a way out was already a significant concession.

Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!
