"How was that ever possible!" Tristin didn't buy his words at all. Phil was so despicable as to blame this on him.


"Stop slinging mud at me. I had no quarrel with her. Why would she relinquish her dream school on my account?"


Phil didn't lose his temper and asked him "You don't know the reason?"


Suddenly he came up with something. He froze.


Anya did this to prevent him from further injury.


Judging from Anya's characteristic, she would avoid studying at that school to prevent him from the retaliation of Phil.


And her decision to some extent indicated that she didn't love him because one would want to get out of trouble with someone he or she loved, no matter how hard it was.


Thinking of this, Tristin had mixed feelings. He did his utmost to disguise his fluster and glared at Phil crossly, "No matter which school did she choose, she decided to leave you."


He smirked speaking of this. "Phil, you think you are capable of accomplishing everything. You think you could get her to love you with all your money and influence. But you end up with nothing."


"You spent four years but still failed to make her fall in love with you. What a big loser you are."


Tristin laughed harder as he spoke. He got so carried away that he began to say things that were illogical.


But his insaneness was understandable. To lose someone you loved hurt desperately. He had a crush on Anya at the first sight. He rushed to sign up when her band was recruiting new members.


It took him much effort to finally get the opportunity to meet Anya frequently. But soon Anya married Phil to save her family, which drove him crazy.


He could feel that Anya treated him differently. He was thinking about asking her to be his girlfriend after spending more time together. But his dream ended when Anya married Phil.


He hated Phil for the rest of his life for stealing Anya from him. And Phil should take the responsibility for causing Anya to choose another school.


Phil's smile faded after hearing Tristin's words. He said indifferently, "I am not sure if she loves me or not. But she definitely didn't like you."


Or else why would she rather stay at an ordinary school rather than go to her favorite school?


Tristin was greatly irritated at hearing this. He lost control and threw a punch at Phil, which he had wanted to do a long time ago. Only in this way could he give full vent to his anger.


But what Tristin didn't realize was that Phil's rage had piled up and he was more eager than Tristin to have a fight.


What made him more surprised was that Phil was excellent in fighting. Tristin was overwhelmed by him. Finally the pedestrians called the police because Phil nearly beat Tristin to death.


Pedestrians at first assumed it was regular conflict and tried to persuade them to stop fighting. But Phil didn't listen to them and continued to beat Tristin. Fearing that Tristin might get killed in this fight, the pedestrians called the police.


The police separated them when they arrived. Tristin ran out of strength and fall to the ground.


The bruise and wound in Phil together with his ferocious expression made him looked like a demon who has just crawled away from the hell.


The police recognized Phil, the famous lawyer in Riverside City. Shouldn't lawyers be the most law- abiding citizen? Phil should know better than brawling in the street. Yet he deliberately broke the law.


"Call the ambulance first." One of the police gave this order in case Tristin's life was in danger.


"No need to call the ambulance. I want my lawyer." Tristin opened his eyes with difficulty and said, "I am suing him. I will let him pay the price!"


Tristin was done with swallowing the insult. Last time he didn't fight back when Phil asked some people to beat him. This time he wouldn't let him get away.


Phil was a rising star in Riverside City, not to mention his famous reputation as a top lawyer. What would people do after hearing him deliberately breaking the law? Wouldn't they think twice before they hired Phil or other lawyers from his firm?


Tristin's intention was to stain his reputation. Phil would have to pay for his mistakes even though Tristin's attempt to destroy Phil business empire fizzled out.


Phil took out his handkerchief from the pocket while hearing his nonsense. He wiped off the blood in his face and hands while smiling mockingly.


He had Riverside City's best lawyers in his law firm. Even with the help of a lawyer, he was bound to lose.


It would be unfair to say that Phil abused his wealth and influence to bully others. Tristin deserved to be treated in this way. Besides, it wasn't Phil who initiated the fight, which could be verified by the cameras of his house and his neighbor's.


After throwing away the handkerchief into a trash can, Phil came up to Tristin and said coldly, "Just to remind you. Think about who threw the first punch before you charge me."


Tristin compressed his lips. Phil derided him, "You came here aggressively but got defeated. Now you want to sue me?"


"I defy you to win me in court."


The firmness in Phil's tone infuriated Tristin. Regardless of the scar in his face, Tristin shouted, "What about last time when you hired some people to beat me up in front of the gate of hospital?"


Phil replied dismissively, "Give you a second warning. Mind your language. I can charge you with slandering me."


"Do you have any evidence proving that I am involved in attacking you? You may want to take that back if you don't have any substantial evidence, because, you know, slander could be a quite serious accusation."


"Phil!" Tristin was pissed off after hearing Phil sanctimoniously popularizing knowledge about laws.


Everyone, including Anya, knew that Phil asked some people to assault him, though without evidence.


Tristin had intense hatred of his great skills at utilizing laws. Phil managed to shut Tristin's mouth in just a few words.


Finally the police took them to the police station to make a record. Because of Tristin's refusal to reconcile, they had to stay at the police station. Otherwise Phil would be free to go, which was exactly the outcome that Tristin didn't want to see.


Phil remained calm throughout the whole process and acted cooperatively with the police.


Tristin made his father a call and asked him to come to the police station with a lawyer. His father was heartbroken hearing that his baby son got beaten again. After all, Tristin still was recovering from the injuries from last time's assault.


So his father didn't ask about the person who beat him and directly came to the police station with a lawyer.
