After two minutes of silence, Charles could not help asking, “I heard you went to the mall just now?” Wynn nodded and responded, “Yeah, I went out for a walk. It's boring to stay inside all the time.” “Yes, it's good to go for a walk.” Charles nodded and drank a cup of tea. They fell into an awkward silence again. Wynn looked at Charles and saw that his face seemed full of thoughts. She said with a smile, “Dad, what exactly did you want to see me about? If there’s anything, just say it. I'm your daughter. There’s no need to hide things from me.” When Charles heard the word ‘daughter’, it touched him greatly. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, “Wynnie, how do you think your mother and I have been treating you?” Wynn was startled, not expecting her father to ask such a question so abruptly. She smiled, took Charles’ slightly rough hand, and said, “Dad, what are you talking about? The two of you are my parents. Of course, you’ve been good to me. Although
Suddenly! Charles shouted coldly, “Enough! What are you saying in front of our daughter? What are you trying to do?” Charles was furious. Martha almost had a slip of her tongue and let the cat out of the bag. She was taken aback as well. Realizing that she had almost said something she should not have, she quickly said in a huff, “I don't care. When I recover from my injury, I’ll make you divorce Philip!” Wynn was also powerless and just said, “Okay, please leave now. I want to rest.” Only then did Charles glare at Martha and push her wheelchair out. In the other suite, Charles was furious and cursed, “Just look at you! Weren’t you the one who told me not to say anything earlier? Look at what you just did? You almost let it out!” Charles was so angry that he slapped the back of his hands. Martha sat in the wheelchair in annoyance and grumbled, “I didn't mean to. If you hadn’t mentioned it to me in the first place, I wouldn’t have almost said it.” Charles was helpless.
Crash, bang, boom! Shane smashed the front desk angrily, causing the attendants to scream in fright. After a bout of wrecking, Shane adjusted his suit and took out the photo again. He grabbed the hair of a squatting female attendant and asked harshly, “Tell me which room she’s staying in!” The female attendant shuddered in fear and stammered, “No... I-I don’t know.” “Don’t know? Interesting.” Shane smiled and kicked the female attendant away. Then, he picked up the golf club and walked to her one step at a time. He pointed the club at her head and said coldly, “I’m asking you again which room she’s in. If you don’t tell me, your pretty face will be ruined.” The female attendant was scared out of her wits. Looking at the burly guys standing behind Shane, she swallowed and said tremblingly, “Room… 1808.” Shane smiled, dropped the club in his hand, and leaned down to pat the female attendant's cheek. He said with a smile, “Well done, that’s more like it. Thanks.” After th
When Heath heard the other party's words, he frowned and his face went grim. Someone dared to speak to him like this! He must be tired of living! “How dare you act so recklessly in my territory?! Men, take them down!” Heath roared. If he did not take down this group of people, how could he face Master Bell and Young Master Clarke in the future? However, Shane only glanced indifferently at Heath before he rushed out under the protection of his guards! This happened in a matter of minutes. The dozens of people were unable to stop these three or four people. Heath looked at the car that was speeding away and flew into a rage. He pointed at the group of men behind him and shouted, “Trash! All of you are rubbish! You can’t even catch one guy!” However, he was also full of worries. These people had good skills and must have an extraordinary background. Heath quickly went upstairs to check on Wynn’s safety before calling Master Bell to inform him about this matter, asking
The corner of Philip’s eyes froze as he punched Lou in the face and kicked him in the waist. The other party flew back and crashed to the ground. “Lou, are you alright?” Several hooligans quickly gathered around Lou, helping him up from the ground. It was too sudden! Lou’s two front teeth had been knocked out by that punch, his mouth and nose full of blood. “Damn it! What are you waiting for? Kill him for me!” Lou covered his face. It was so painful that he could not straighten his back. Lou Webb had never been so humiliated before. He was beaten up while in the hands of such an ordinary young man, damn it! Was he not a loser? How could he fight with such skills? With a scowl on his face, Philip’s cold intent radiated from him as he raged wantonly at the entrance of this building. “It’s your fault for making the first move!” A furious shout! Philip quickly rushed out, grabbed the parking attendant’s stool at the side, and smashed it over the head of one of the
Since the last time she was humiliated by Philip during the engagement banquet with Howard Lowe, Ruby had held a grudge against Philip. She had always wanted to seek revenge on him. As she had met him by chance today, the hatred buried in Ruby’s heart sprouted again! “Ruby, is this really that wimp Philip Clarke you told us about?” “This man is too powerful, isn’t he?” “So what? He beat up Lou Webb, the younger brother of Dru Webb! He’s done for!” Several of Ruby’s best friends looked at Philip with shocked expressions. Ruby had done her best to discredit Philip in front of them. “Dru Webb? In that case, Philip is doomed! The Webb brothers have a notorious reputation around here!” Ruby frowned and secretly took out her phone to take a picture of Philip at this time. At this moment, Philip flexed his arm with a cold chill on his face. Who the hell dared to take his legs? Without another word, Philip rushed to Lou and raised his leg, stomping it on Lou’s stomach. Th
Everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of them was so reckless and did not know what was good for him! This guy was Dru Webb, a famous figure in these streets. He had people, money, and power. At this moment, the crowd was busy discussing. “I'm telling you, he’s done for. After messing with the two Webb brothers, even ten lives won’t be enough to save him.” “He's really too arrogant. Does he really think he can face a dozen people on his own?” “He’s just a rash young man. He's gone and done it now. He’ll definitely get beaten up and end up a fool!” Ruby blinked and frowned helplessly. Philip was really too foolhardy. To challenge Dru Webb was simply looking for death. It was good to let Philip suffer a little so that he would know the gap between him and others. With that thought, Ruby’s eyes revealed strong disdain and spite, as well as gloating. When Dru heard Philip’s words, he was startled. He sneered menacingly and said, “Very well, you’
“What mistake?” Dru frowned. “Kid, are you trying to buy time? Well then, I'd like to hear what mistakes I’ve made.” Dru was not in a hurry. He sneered, unconcerned. How could a loser like Philip pose a threat to him? “Actually, this isn't your territory but mine,” Philip said calmly as his searing gaze fixed on Dru. This company, along with this building, belonged to him. Naturally, this territory also belonged to him. Dru was taken aback before he raised his head and laughed, saying, “Oh boy, you’re really such a prat! What did you just say? This is your territory? Where the hell did you get the confidence to brag like this?” This kid was really interesting to have the guts to brag in front of so many people. What did he mean this was his territory? Was he saying that he owned the number one food delivery company in Riverdale? Ridiculous! What a joke! Philip shook his head, a faint smile appearing on his lips. This Dru Webb was about to die and he still had
Other members of the family had been so pampered that no one could fight Ronan either. All of them were sent flying, and some of them hung on the tree miserably. Philip laughed at the scene. These people had always treated Ronan as a pushover when, in fact, Ronan was a force to be reckoned with. None of them was a match for him. “I know that other than my uncle, some other people were also involved in harming my mother, but I don’t know who they are. You'd better hand them over or no one will leave this place alive today.” Ronan’s killing intent was very intense. He was clearly very angry. Everyone panicked and looked around carefully, at a loss for what to do. They saw the fear in each other’s eyes. The family head had taken Ronan's uncle and some other people to a city. It was difficult for them to find a decision-maker when the elders were not around. The instigator from back then was not around either. Who else could they look for? “Calm down. This matter has nothin
Ronan’s uncle did not hesitate to force his elder sister to her death just to kick the most promising descendant out of the family. This grudge was unforgivable. Everyone laughed at Ronan’s audacity to seek revenge. Only a fool would dare to do that. “Do you know how powerful your uncle is?” “Although he’s not here now, he’s not someone you can afford to mess with.” Everyone mocked Ronan without taking him seriously at all. “Did you hear what I said?” Ronan scowled. These people kept disregarding his request and paid no attention to him. He felt very upset. “Since you won’t hand him over, I’ll beat you until he appears. If he’s not here, other people can take his place.” He knew that his uncle was quite powerful and would often go to other towns or cities for networking. While it was true that he might not be around, it did not mean that Ronan would not make trouble for the others. Everyone looked at Ronan arrogantly, waiting to see what Ronan would do. Suddenly, Rona
The guards were taken aback by Ronan’s sudden arrogance and looked at him doubtfully. “What’s up with you? Do you want to take action?” “After all these years, have you finally decided to avenge your mother?” They kept taunting Ronan without realizing how angry he was. “I repeat—I want to see the people who forced my mother to her death back then!” Ronan stomped his foot in anger and glared at everyone around him. The guards were startled because they finally felt Ronan’s strength with that stomp. They did not expect him to be that strong. Maybe because of Ronan’s fury, they finally realized his might and quickly scrambled into the manor. Philip saw the name on a plaque—Claude Manor. The place looked pretty imposing, and Philip felt a stab of longing as he looked around. Philip stood without a word. His main objective was to help Ronan. The guards ran away in a panic. They knew that Ronan was going to make things difficult for them. “It’s bad. Ronan is at the door
The man could not resist because he was alone. Next time, he would bring more people to deal with Philip. Philip saw his resentment but took no notice of it. No matter how much he resented Philip, he would not survive tonight. Such an arrogant and domineering person would not live to see the sun tomorrow. “Y-You hit him?” Ronan looked at Philip in disbelief, shocked that Philip would stand up for him. Although he usually appeared simple and kind, he was not a fool. He knew that Philip hit that guy to protect him. “If you meet such people again, just fight them and don’t worry about unnecessary things. You don't want to fight because you’re afraid of losing the right to enter the town, but you’re my brother from now on. “I can take care of your wine supply, and we can find other ways to make money. You don’t have to waste your efforts and live under someone else's roof anymore,” Philip said arrogantly, not taking these people seriously at all. Hearing that, Ronan nodded with
A man stepped forward at this time. “Ronan, have you completed your task? I have another task for you. Hurry up with it! I want you to hunt a thousand rabbits, and I’ll pay you one crystal for them. What do you think?” He had a smirk on his face. He was clearly trying to rip Ronan off. Ronan frowned. “Based on the market price, you should pay me at least ten crystals.” Hearing that, the man was unhappy. “That’s the price for a human. Who do you think you are? Giving you some money is good enough for you!” Ronan clenched his fist, and the man stepped back. “What are you doing? Do you want to pick a fight here? Once you make a move, someone like you will lose the chance to enter the town again! And you can forget about getting another task!” the other party threatened Ronan fearfully. He knew that Ronan was very powerful, but he had a good temper, so everyone always bullied him. “Is there a rule in the town that prohibits fighting?” Philip asked curiously. The smirking ma
Ronan and Philip moved forward and finally arrived at the human town. Philip looked around curiously and found that it was a large city. Humans had done quite well in developing a city. “If you’re not happy with this place, you can consider going to the city in the west. You can find many human territories nearby. I don’t know why humans are unwilling to live together but prefer to build cities everywhere!” Ronan was not human, so he could not understand it. “Although my mother is a human, I’m not. I only remember living in that hut since I was born. No other race is willing to accept me, including humans.” Ronan was embarrassed because he had scales on his body that were clearly visible at sea but not so much on land. Humans were unwilling to classify Ronan as a human because of that. Philip nodded, surprised to hear his pitiful plight. Not only did he not have his own race, but his mother’s race was unwilling to acknowledge him too. “That’s awful. Why don't you join u
“This is it, crystal! This little stone can get me a big bottle of wine! Since I’m lucky enough to meet you today, I’ll give it to you!” Ronan clearly had no concept of money. Philip took the stone from Ronan’s hand and found that it was no different from an energy stone. He tried to return the stone to Ronan, who rejected it. “I don't have much concept of money, but I know that money is indispensable if you want to go to the place where humans live. Just take it. I'm afraid that you’ll be detained if you don't have money. I was detained once before!” Philip was touched by Ronan’s words. He took out a bottle of wine from the space ring and handed it to Ronan. Although the wine was nothing to Philip, it was a rare treasure to Ronan, who had never tasted good wine. “What’s this?” Ronan curiously took the bottle of wine that Philip handed to him. He put it to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and was soon bursting with excitement. “This is good stuff! Do you want to sell it to m
“You’re not from a big family? In that case, how did you become so strong at such a young age?” Ronan looked at Rabbit in surprise too. “I thought you were from a big family, one of the best! After all, only such families have the power to capture summoned beasts for their descendants!” Obviously, Ronan had misunderstood Rabbit’s identity. Rabbit blinked blankly, wondering what Ronan was talking about. “Summoned beast? I'm not a summoned beast; I'm just an ordinary rabbit!” Seeing Ronan’s confusion, Rabbit smugly introduced himself. Although he had no idea what a summoned beast meant, it did not sound imposing, so Rabbit did not like it at all. Ronan was startled to hear that Rabbit was not a summoned beast but a creature with intelligence. He felt very powerful. “Indeed, he’s not a summoned beast but my pet. You can think of him as my partner. I’m more curious about this place.” Philip was puzzled, wondering what was going on in this world. He had not seen any towns so f
“This is the survival of the fittest! We were much stronger than them, so they were at our mercy, just like how we’re at your mercy now!” Someone stepped forward, his voice trembling as if he wanted to rebuke Philip. Seeing his timid appearance but bold attempt, Philip sneered, “In that case, I’m stronger than you, so there’s nothing wrong with killing you. You should pray that I won’t kill you in the cruelest way possible.” Philip raised his sword and killed the fish creature who voiced up. Any sign of weakness and these people would think they had a chance to survive. Ronan applauded Philip’s decisiveness and quickly joined the battle. Philip smiled at Ronan’s excitement. He simply wanted to vent. Over the years, he had been working so hard for his family and their future that he had almost lost sight of himself. He realized that maybe he should live for himself from now on. He wanted to become stronger and dominate the world. He knew that this was a real world. Although
