Philip looked at the address on his phone, shouted his thanks, and then immediately hailed a cab. He said to the driver, “Mister, please head to Blossoms Park.” The driver was taken aback at first. He glanced at Philip’s dressing and said, “You want to go to Blossoms Park?” “Yes, what’s the matter?” Philip asked in confusion. The driver chuckled. “Young man, are you applying to be a security guard? The wages of security guards there are quite high. My son works there for 8,000 a month. That's a wealthy area in Uppercreek. A villa there costs tens of millions.” Philip smiled awkwardly but not impolitely. He said, “Yeah, I’m there to have a look.” “Okay, sit tight then,” the driver said before stepping on the accelerator. Soon, Philip arrived at the entrance of Blossoms Park. He got out of the car and paid for the ride. The cab driver said in a friendly tone, “Good luck, young man.” Philip nodded politely before walking toward the main entrance of Blossoms Park. Sure en
Philip looked at Yolanda. He did not expect to meet her here after such a long time. She still looked the same, with the same look of contempt in her eyes. Speaking of which, there seemed to be a photo of Yolanda that was still on his phone. “Hehe, yeah, long time no see.” Philip smiled faintly but did not intend to continue the discussion. Yolanda snorted. “Oh, what happened? Weren’t you doing pretty well before? Did you mess up again?” Yolanda had once witnessed Philip’s greatness. After that, she left Riverdale and came to Uppercreek. However, after some inquiry, she found out that Clarke Group had gone bankrupt! Did that mean Philip had become useless again? Hahaha! After hearing this news, Yolanda could not sleep for a few days due to excitement! She was just waiting for the day when she made it big so that she could go back and show off to Philip. She would return to him tenfold the deception and humiliation he had given her! Unexpectedly, she ran into him
Philip actually said that he was here to look for Janice. Ridiculous! Immediately afterward, another enchanting woman stepped out and looked at Philip provocatively. She said, “I understand now. Could he be a stalker or a paparazzi?” Yolanda immediately reacted and thought that this must be the case! “You’re really disgusting! Did Wynn kick you out of the house? Why are you resorting to such shameful jobs? I really feel sorry for you.” Yolanda yelled, looking down on every inch of Philip with that contemptuous attitude of hers. In Yolanda’s eyes, Philip was nothing more than a useless person! Philip was helpless. A stalker? Paparazzi? With a smile at the corners of his mouth, he said calmly, “Excuse me, I’m here to look for her purely because Janice is my sister.” Huh?! Instantly, the bunch of people laughed uproariously. Yolanda stretched out her hand, patted Philip’s face, and said with a smile, “Philip, I don’t mean to insult you, but Janice Clarke is your sist
“Mr. Clarke, sorry I'm late. Director Luther asked me to come. He already knows that you have arrived in Uppercreek. My name is Bernice Owen. I’m Director Luther’s assistant.” The woman in the black and white professional suit was only in her early 20s. She was very beautiful. She stood directly in front of Philip with her slender and white long legs, bowing her head as she apologized. This scene gave Yolanda and the others a fright. What was the situation? Had everyone gone mad? Where did this woman come from, calling that piece of trash Mr. Clarke? Philip was also taken aback and glanced at the beautiful woman in front of him. Bernice Owen? Did Hoyt Luther ask her to come over? That old man was very well-informed. “Hey, miss, are you sick? Do you know who is standing in front of you? He’s a hopeless and useless person. Did you recognize the wrong person?” Yolanda jumped out immediately, looking at Bernice solemnly with contempt in her eyes. Was this an act?
“Are you trying to protect her? What a shameless couple! Philip Clarke, this matter is not finished yet! Let’s settle all the old and new grudges now!” After the slap, Yolanda stomped her foot angrily with bitterness in her eyes. Here, Philip clenched his fists, and Bernice behind him was also angry while looking cold. She actually dared to hit Mr. Clarke?! It was an act of death! Just as Bernice was about to rush out and fight back, she was held back by Philip. “That’s enough. Let’s talk about it later.” Gil also took the opportunity to persuade Yolanda, saying, “Yola, stop making trouble and let's quickly go in. The people inside are still waiting for us. Why are you holding a grudge against a slanderous scumbag?” After that, Gil put his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced at Bernice intently, and turned his head to go in. Yolanda stomped her foot angrily before giving up. She caught up to the people in front. Very soon. Philip and Bernice were left at the gate.
Here, Philip followed Anson Goode to his sister’s villa. Unfortunately, Janice was not around. Philip had made the trip for nothing. In desperation, Philip, who had waited for half an hour, finally chose to leave. He would return tomorrow. As for Anson, he accompanied Philip the entire time. Seeing that Philip was about to leave, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and respectfully said, “Excuse me, Mr. Clarke, it just happens that there’s a private banquet for all the owners in this community. Those attending are famous people in Uppercreek. Since you’re the most distinguished owner in this community, I wonder if you’d be interested to show up at the banquet hall later?” Philip thought for a while and found it difficult to decline Anson’s hospitality, so he nodded and said, “Let’s go.” Anson was overjoyed. He was able to invite the super owner of the Bird of Paradise Villa to tonight’s banquet. His future career progression was bound to be unstoppable! The Bird of
He was almost at the limit of endurance. If he was not concerned about causing unnecessary trouble after hitting Yolanda, Philip would have made a move long ago! “What did you say? Philip, don’t tell me you want to remain here obstinately. Let me tell you, we’re not in the same class. Look at your own appearance, then look at us. Someone like you wants to get into the upper-class circle?” Yolanda continued to chastise, “Look at the people present. All of them come from wealthy families or have successful careers. A pauper like you, with the cheap clothes on your back, is nothing but an oddball! Now that your family is bankrupt, you have to accept the reality! Just be a useless piece of trash quietly! I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the manager here asks about it, you’ll definitely not be able to escape!” At this moment, a waitress trotted in. Seeing this scene, she walked up to Philip in fear. When she saw the wine tray on the floor, she hurriedly ben
“I’m the young master of the Dean family in Uppercreek. My dad is the coach of Uppercreek’s security forces, and my grandfather is also the retired coach!” After he finished speaking, he looked at Philip amusedly. “Now, do you still want to go against me?” “The Dean family? Are they very powerful?” Philip retorted unwaveringly. “Haha.” Gill smiled cruelly before stepping forward and glaring at Philip fiercely. “Since I grew up, you’re the first person who dares to provoke the Dean family like this. “I’ll let you know how big the gap between us is, just like the geese in the sky and the ants on the ground!” Philip smiled faintly. When he was about to speak, a middle-aged man with a dignified face pushed the crowd away and walked over. “What’s going on? Who dares to make trouble at the banquet for the owners of Blossoms Park? Don’t you know the banquet tonight is hosted by Sam Cohen of the Soaring Real Estate Group?” “Oh, Supervisor Sandler is here. This wretched man fr
Fitz felt particularly bad at the thought that he failed to protect his people. He vowed to take revenge. People of other races shared the same thoughts. Everyone thought that their people had gone out to seek ways to leave but were met with an accident. Unexpectedly, they were harmed by the spider people, which was simply despicable and unacceptable. “You just need to sacrifice one more person for everyone to leave this dangerous place and lift the curse from us,” Weaver said. Everyone's eyes turned bloodshot at his words, shocked that Weaver would say that so openly. “Hehe, you’re really bold to perform a sacrifice. Why not use one of your own?” Fitz laughed and stared at Weaver. Weaver scowled. Of course, the idea crossed his mind, but the records stated that they had to use other races for sacrifice. Using their own people as sacrifice would void it, so they had to use others. This would not only reduce the other party’s manpower but also save a lot of effort. However,
Philip wanted to figure out what the spider people were up to. It looked like they had been planning this for a long time, which was terrifying. He had to let the others know about this. Everyone had the right to know. Moreover, the pitiful magpie woman was scared out of her wits. Philip had to bring her home. “Let's go back now. We’ll explore this place later. Do you want to stay here or go out with us?” Philip looked at Celeste curiously. He did not think she was brave enough to venture out. Sure enough, Celeste tugged at the corner of her clothes as she pondered. “I'll go out with you!” Celeste finally decided after much deliberation. Since she had decided to follow Philip, there was no point in hiding here anymore. She had to pluck up the courage. Celeste had lived in the forest for very long and had never gone out before, so she was curious about the outside world. “I want to see the outside world!” Celeste said nervously. Philip simply nodded without a word. The
At this point, Philip sprang into action. He appeared in front of the other party, catching them off guard. “Who allowed you to kill people for no reason?” The spider people were shocked by Philip’s sudden appearance. They were frightened to see someone there, and he was none other than the human who had strayed into this place by accident. The spiders panicked and wanted to run, but Philip quickly released Puffy. The spider people could not escape because of the curse placed on them and also because of Puffy's existence. The passage only allowed entry, not exit. When anyone stepped into that passage, they would not only come under Puffy’s attack but also suffer a gut-wrenching pain. They felt something was wrong when they tried to escape. Someone noticed Puffy approaching them and yelled in fear, “It’s that deadly thing!” Someone recognized Puffy and ran away screaming. They had no chance of winning against Puffy, so they had no choice but to run. Seeing someone running aw
Philip could tell that Celeste wanted to help, but she was too weak to do anything. “Don’t worry so much. Let’s wait and see what happens. If possible, we won’t stand by and do nothing. These people are simply outrageous.” Philip did not have a good impression of the spider people, and this incident made it worse. “Not bad!” Rabbit hopped onto Celeste’s shoulder excitedly. Ever since he found out that Celeste had no ability, he liked her even more. He liked people who had no combat power. Except for that extra eye, there was nothing strange about her. Besides, she was quite a beautiful woman, so Rabbit was fond of her. “Philip will take care of it. Don’t worry about it. He’s an outstanding man who fights for justice. You’ll have a good life if you follow Philip, especially since you have that ability but are powerless to take care of yourself. I’m sure you need someone to protect you,” Rabbit chattered away. Rabbit knew how special Celeste’s ability was. She would be of gr
Celeste seemed simple and kind, and after she told Philip everything she knew, Philip and Rabbit gradually changed their minds about her for the better. “We actually learned such a big secret this time. What a surprise!” Philip exclaimed. He followed Celeste to the altar, which was very far away. Before they reached the altar, they smelled a strong stench of blood. Philip frowned at this unexpected development. Rabbit covered his nose in surprise at the strong stench of blood. “Wait, I don’t think it’s human blood.” Philip sensed that the blood came from the few pitiful races. “I can smell it. Except for the spider people, I smell the blood of other races!” At this moment, a soft sound came from the side. Celeste quickly pulled Philip and Rabbit to hide in the corner. Celeste had lost the ability to be invisible, so she could only take Philip to hide in a panic. She knew that they could not expose themselves. “Someone is coming. Stay here and don’t do anything. You’ll f
“No one ever comes to my place. You must be outsiders.” Celeste was curious, wondering who Philip was. Celeste knew about the four unique races, but Philip’s appearance and form did not fit any of them. “You’re right. I’m an outsider. I wanted to know something, so I came to the forest. It’s best if you can give me an answer. I don’t intend to harm anyone. If you can answer my questions, I’ll leave and remove the curse on you as well,” Philip persuaded her. He felt that the woman was quite sincere, different from what he imagined. In that case, there was no need to make things difficult for her. Besides, he did not feel a murderous vibe in her, so she had probably never done anything bad. Philip had no reason to make things difficult for someone who liked to hide and sing. “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I know, but I don’t really know much. I usually stay in my own territory and have no contact with the outside world. Even the other races don't know of my existence.” Rabbit
Philip felt that there was no problem with his hearing. Someone was humming a song, and the tune sounded very strange and spooky in the dark forest. Rabbit frowned and nodded. He also heard the strange sound and was scared. “Who has nothing better to do but to sing here?” Rabbit nervously grabbed the corner of Philip's clothes, afraid that Philip would leave him behind. Philip shook his head. According to the others, no one would come here for no reason. Due to various dangers in the forest, they would only wander around the edge without seeking trouble in the depths. In that case, the abrupt singing voice was very strange, indeed. “Philip, don't be nervous. Stay calm.” Rabbit's voice was trembling. Although Rabbit kept telling Philip to stay calm, he was already freaking out, so scared that he nearly wanted to run away. Philip knew Rabbit’s character, so he did not comment. He simply observed the surroundings and listened carefully to the sound, which was so ethereal tha
Philip took Puffy along and quickly arrived in a forest where the other races usually hunted, so they should not face any danger here. As soon as Philip left, a woman appeared in the corner and looked in the direction where Philip left with a conflicted look on her face. “Should I follow him?” Ariadna had been left behind in the snake people’s village. She had no friends, and no one paid her any attention. Sometimes, they even displayed their ridicule and disdain for her. She did not get good treatment even though she was a junior from the outside world. In desperation, Ariadna decided to follow Philip. Unexpectedly, she saw Philip with a cute kid the next second. Ariadna was surprised to see that Philip had such a big and cute child. “Wait, that kid looks a little weird.” Due to the distance, Ariadna could not see what the kid looked like, but his color and body shape seemed different from that of normal people. After much deliberation, Ariadna decided to tag along, co
“I’ll look around and find out what’s going on. Don’t worry about me. Look for Ronan if anything crops up.” Philip decided to leave Ronan in charge. Ronan did not object. He knew that Philip wanted to train him. He rarely interacted with others, so he had poor social skills. He had improved with Philip’s help, but his skills were still nothing compared to Philip’s subordinates. He was deeply moved by the opportunity that Philip had given him. “Sure enough, heroes will emerge from the youth. You two will have a bright future!” Wren said excitedly. Philip did not comment. After a few pleasantries, he wandered around with Rabbit. Selma and her people had no time for Philip. They finally found their predecessors, so they had many questions to solve. Philip was most interested in getting to the bottom of this mysterious place. It felt more like a cage designed to trap them. It was devoid of rich energy and other resources suitable for them. What was the purpose of the person b
