“Damn! My eyes aren’t playing tricks on me, right? Isn’t that Tiger Zander of Lord North Street?” “Stop pulling me! I’m seeing it too. Look at that, it’s Theo Zander!” “What? Theo… Zander? The one who can make kids p*ss their pants at the mention of his name, that Theo Zander?” For a while, the crowd panicked. Such a group of people was so fearful and respectful to the young man with a frosty face. It was beyond belief! What background did that person have? Philip stood outside the operating theater, waiting anxiously. The coldness in his eyes was like a piercing sword! “Where are those people?” Philip asked coldly. Tiger moved over while kneeling. Bowing his head, he said, “We’ve subdued them.” “Take me there.” Philip’s eyes were full of murderous intent! Tiger hurriedly got up, led Philip respectfully, and came to a small ward that was being guarded. All four men were kneeling on the ground with bruises all over their bodies. Their hands were tied behind the
Save the mother or the child? Philip’s head buzzed at those words. How could this be? How could things suddenly become like this? He looked at the consent form in his hand with his hands trembling as if he was holding something weighing tens of thousands of pounds. It was very heavy! At this moment in the corridor behind Philip, Theo and Tiger were stunned. They were full of panic, fear, annoyance, and regret—as well as endless anger! In the entire corridor, the temperature suddenly dropped to the freezing point, making people tremble! Without further ado, Theo turned around and commanded in a cold voice, “Gather everyone from the whole city, go to Phoenicia, and kill the four golden phoenixes!” At this moment, Theo was full of chills and anger! Even if everything was at stake, he had to seek revenge for the lady! At most, Theo would lose Riverdale. Even so, the four Phoenix brothers had to die! Tiger nodded heavily, turned around, and ran out hurriedly. However
Just at this moment, the door of the operating room was pushed open. The chief surgeon donned in a sterile surgical gown walked out. His eyes that could be seen behind his mask revealed traces of displeasure. He asked, “What's the matter? It's so noisy. Has the family member decided yet? Are we saving the mother or the child?” “Jack Quentin!” At this time, the old woman shouted in a cold voice. In an instant, the chief surgeon glanced at the old woman who stood aside. Suddenly! The other party was stunned! “Teacher?” Jack could not believe his eyes! He took off his mask in surprise, his face full of excitement! He did not expect to see his teacher again after 12 years! Beatrice’s face was cold. She glanced at Jack who was excited and said, “There’s no time to explain. I’ll do it.” Jack understood in an instant and glanced at Philip who was standing aside. Professor Swann was here for him? This young man could actually hire his teacher? However, Jack only too
Beatrice took off her mask. She was sweating on her head and looked a little tired. She glanced at Henry, nodded, and said to Philip, “The patient is suffering from acute bleeding and must be kept under observation. However, your wife is very strong. In such a severe situation, she still protected the fetus desperately. She’s a great woman. The fetus is temporarily saved, but the danger is still there. The next few days will be very critical. If she bleeds again, we might not be able to keep it.” The big rock in Philip’s heart finally fell. He looked at Wynn who was being pushed out of the operating room, his heart full of regret and self-blame. Philip rushed over, grabbing Wynn's cold and slender hand. He stroked her forehead and whispered, “Wynnie, I’m back.” Wynn squinted, looked very tired and in pain. She smiled slightly at the corners of her mouth and said weakly, “Baby… is fine.” In the intensive care unit, Philip held Wynn's little hand tightly and just sat like that.
Jack naturally understood and said, “Teacher, it’s really difficult to raise funds, but I know some friends. I might be able to contact them to ask if anyone is willing to invest.” Beatrice’s eyes lit up and said, “Great! We need patriots like you! Jack, as long as the institute is established, I’ll recommend you to be the first batch of medical researchers to enter the institute!” Jack said gratefully, “Thank you, Teacher.” After that, he was about to dial the phone numbers of some business owners he knew. It was also at this time that Philip stepped forward and asked, “How much needs to be raised?” After asking this question, both Beatrice and Jack looked at Philip dubiously. As far as Beatrice knew, Philip had already invested billions in helping Henry’s cardiology department. Was he going to invest in the comprehensive research institute now? Impossible! This was simply not the kind of financial support that could be given by one person! Moreover, the research pla
Ten… Ten billion? Instantly, everyone was stunned! Jack looked at Philip dumbfounded. From his expression, he could not read any deception.Was he telling the truth?How could it be? Ten billion! Was he crazy? Who could have so much money? Anyone who could simply invest 10 billion in the development of a research institute must have tens of billions of funds! Would such a person be unknown? However, when did Riverdale produce such a character? Jack had never heard of it! He had never seen a rich man like Philip! Therefore, he immediately sneered and mocked, “What did you say? Ten billion? Young man, you’re overly pretentious. It’s a good thing to be grateful to our Professor Swann, but it’s not good for you to talk nonsense like this.” He refused to believe that a guy like Philip could spend ten billion! Even if he had some wealth, it would be a million to ten million at most. Ten billion? Ludicrous! Beatrice was also taken aback. When she heard the nu
If he could not come up with ten billion, just reduce it to 100 million? Did he really think that money fell from the sky? He could come up with 100 million just like that? Beatrice also shook her head helplessly and said, “Mr. Clarke, I know you really want to support this project, but if it doesn't work out, we don't have to force it. We will find a way.” However, Philip was unperturbed and continued to dial another number. “Buffer, transfer ten billion to…” Philip turned to Beatrice and asked, “Do you have a bank account?” Beatrice was startled in puzzlement. However, Henry stepped forward and recited the bank account information. Soon, Philip hung up the phone and said to Beatrice casually, “Professor Swann, the money has already been transferred. You can check it later.” It was transferred? Beatrice’s face was full of disbelief. Jack sneered and mocked, “Young man, aren’t you done pretending yet?” He said this with a tone full of dissatisfaction. Was this g
Phoenix Pavilion, Phoenicia. The four Phoenix brothers were gathered together at the moment, wining and dining merrily. “Wallace, since Mr. Clarke and Theo are dead, the underground chamber of commerce this time will be different. When the time comes, a big piece of cake like Riverdale will definitely be popular.” The fourth brother, Gerald Phoenix, held the red wine in his hand. His face was full of joy. “In my opinion, we did a big favor to those people in the South River District. We’ll score a piece of this cake,” the third brother, Harvey, said. Only the second brother, Jerome, with bandages on his hands and accompanied by a special nurse, asked in a deep voice, “Wallace, what do you think?” Wallace stood in front of the large French window with his hands behind his back, looking at the darkening sky in Phoenicia, After a brief silence, he said, “Don't intervene in the affairs of the underground chamber of commerce for the time being. Let those big bosses fight it ou
Jamie was surprised by Philip’s easygoing reaction and immediately felt the gap between him and Philip. If Jamie were in Philip’s shoes, he would be worried, but Philip was confident instead. Jamie had a lot to learn from Philip. Jamie had no idea that Philip did not take Dennis seriously at all. Philip had too many capable people under his command. He was not concerned about Dennis at all. In comparison, Dennis could be considered the most useless person under him.… On the other hand, Rabbit arrived at the market. Rabbit was quite famous among the major families by now. As a non-human with a violent temper, he was in the center of attraction wherever he went. Someone tried to kidnap Rabbit once, but not only did he fail, but the person was also beaten badly. To this day, the kidnapper was still bedridden in the hospital. Rabbit’s notorious reputation had spread far and wide, and not just anyone could deal with him. At this time, many storytellers were at the tavern tal
People in seclusion would usually not receive any news from the outside world, so contacting them would be up to luck. Therefore, Lincoln's appearance was good news for the Hexa Guild. Now that the guild was under scrutiny, Lincoln's appearance would save them a lot of trouble. Lincoln stood on the spot, looking at the yard curiously. Philip had modified the yard, so it was full of energy. Any practitioner would feel the difference at once. Jamie and the others had discovered this fact but never asked out of courtesy. Everyone had their own secret. Maybe this was Philip’s secret. Lincoln closed his eyes and felt the abundant energy. He was reluctant to leave this place that contained tens of thousands of times more energy than the place he had chosen for his seclusion. Lincoln felt conflicted. He could practice much faster in this place if the energy level remained the same. Thinking of this, he could hardly contain his excitement to practice on the spot. Seeing Jamie nex
Lincoln had never met a monster beast with intelligence! After taking a closer look at Rabbit, Lincoln had other ideas. Philip was most likely a powerful person with extraordinary strength to have such a powerful monster beast as his pet. Dennis was not a fool. Philip had to be powerful and not a coward for Dennis to willingly follow him. Thinking of this, Lincoln showed Rabbit enough respect. “Mr. Rabbit, I’m looking for Dennis from the Hexa Guild.” The guild members behind him were full of disbelief at his courtesy. They had served him for a while and knew his character very well. Lincoln would never be so polite to ordinary juniors, so this rabbit had to be unusual. Thinking of this, their attitude toward Rabbit changed from disdain to admiration. Rabbit was shocked by their eccentric behavior and looked at them skeptically. Seeing their smiling faces, Rabbit decided not to make things difficult for them. Besides, they were polite. “Oh, you’re looking for Dennis. Come
This guild member could not forget how Hogster had always stolen his resources by force. Hogster’s ugly face made him sick. Although Lincoln was back, he had lost all confidence in the guild. He just wanted to return to Dennis' side as soon as possible. Although he was a member under the guild leader, Dennis was the one who had been helping him all along. In fact, if not for Dennis’ support over the years, even Alain would not have achieved what he had today. Hence, this guild member had always been grateful to Dennis. When Dennis left, he wanted to leave with him, but due to special circumstances, he stayed until now. Unexpectedly, it came in handy. Alain was excited to hear that. In Alain's opinion, such a lowly member would not dare to lie to him, so he had to be telling the truth. He knew that this was his chance to settle everything once and for all. Alain had been worried that Lincoln would blame him, but Lincoln was deceived instead, which was great. He had nothing t
Lincoln had a very good reputation, so the guild members dropped their guard and started to complain about everything. “Grandmaster, we've been having a hard time. Hogster always deducts our practice resources and gives them to the women he likes. It’s infuriating. We don’t even have that many resources to begin with,” a member said miserably. He had good talent, but Hogster did not give him any good resources, so his level remained stagnant. All his resources had been given to the women who had caught Hogster’s fancy. Lincoln scowled upon hearing this. How could Hogster take other people’s resources? He would not allow this to happen. “They also tried every means to arrange a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but the agreement fell through, and they badmouthed the other party for it!” “They defamed the young lady of the guild, and now, they're furious at us. Their wrath is not a joke. Moreover, someone solved the side effects of their practice technique, but we'v
If Philip was at fault, Lincoln had nothing to say. However, if Hogster was the one who had caused all the trouble, he would not spare them. “I’ll get to the bottom of this. Now, tell me what’s going on with Dennis. Based on my understanding of him, he wouldn't betray the guild for no reason. He must have a reason for doing this!” Neither of them could explain what happened to Dennis. They could only say that humans were fickle. After all, they could not figure it out either. The person at fault would never admit their fault. Alain did not think that he was biased or thought that what he had done was excessive. He simply thought that Dennis looked down on him, which was why he decided to leave. Now that he was gone, Alain could say whatever he wanted, and Dennis could not defend himself. Thinking of this, Alain was very excited. He began to defame Dennis and shifted the attention away from him and his son. Lincoln scowled as he listened. Then, he returned to his room and summ
Alain was helpless. Although he had a lot to say, he could not do anything in front of Lincoln. Lincoln was stronger than him in every aspect, a force to be reckoned with. He was not someone Alain could deal with. Alain looked at Lincoln awkwardly. He wanted to appease his anger but did not know what to say. “You need to explain this to me. Why did Dennis leave? And I want to know why the guild’s reputation has become so bad. Did you do something wrong?”Lincoln heard that Dennis had been expelled and could no longer stay in the guild. Many people supported Dennis, so they were upset with Alain and tried to defame him. Hearing that, Alain knew that someone must have been talking behind his back, but he did not dare to lose his temper. He forced a smile and looked at Lincoln in a flattering manner. Before he could find an excuse, Hogster rushed over excitedly and said to his father, “Father, guess what I did to Philip? Hehe!” Hogster recounted his handiwork smugly without p
It had been years since the grandmaster went into seclusion for practice. He was not concerned about power. He once mentioned that he would not leave his seclusion unless he reached the top. Hence, no one expected to see him. “Grandmaster, you appeared at the right time. We would've been in trouble if you didn't come out!” “That’s right. Everyone is bullying us. Now that you’re out, you can help us.” Everyone complained about their grievances, feeling sorry for themselves. The Hexa Guild was in trouble, and they faced various problems too. All the major guilds were keeping a close eye on the Hexa Guild, waiting to see them make a fool of themselves. The Celestial Palace planned to destroy the Hexa Guild instead of letting them off. They could not accept the initial setup, so they decided to erase the Hexa Guild from existence. Hence, the Hexa Guild had been under great pressure, with the members wishing that someone could help them. Unexpectedly, a strong expert appeared.
Ronan was his buddy, and his wife's reputation was at stake. Philip could not stand idly by. He had to help. Jamie was very fast at ordering his people to make the matter public. No one expected another dramatic turn of events. Everyone thought that the young lady of the Celestial Palace was an unchaste woman for making that decision. Unexpectedly, the Celestial Palace found a way to solve the side effects of their technique. All the major guilds were in trepidation. Although the Celestial Palace’s technique was very powerful, the side effects reduced its allure. Now that that problem was solved, everything was different. On top of that, the holy maiden and other members of the guild showed their appearance in public. Regardless of gender, everyone was beautiful without any markings on their faces. After seeing this scene, everyone knew that the Celestial Palace was about to make a comeback. Carlos was very excited and thought that Vanna was a lucky star to bring so many
