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
How Philip wanted to punish them depended entirely on his mood. No one could stop him. “Master Theo, what do you mean? I’ve been with you for four years and am also a well-known figure in this area. What do you mean by lecturing us now?” Dru’s eyes were cold and looked grim as he clenched his fists tightly. What was wrong with Master Theo? Master Theo was turning his back against them without warning. This was something that had never happened before! This scene was naturally seen by the crowd and everyone was baffled. “Dru Webb, you’re such a fool! Have you forgotten that I gave you the position you’re in now? Very well then, I’ll confiscate everything you have today!” Theo roared. Dru was really looking for death. Dru’s eyes narrowed. He was completely annoyed and said sullenly, “Brother Theo, are you really going to do this?” However, Theo could not be bothered with him. Instead, he turned around, very respectfully bent 90 degrees to Philip, and said, “Mr. Clarke,
Looking at Gopher Delivery Services behind him, Philip stepped in. The employees in the company were working hard, and the atmosphere was not bad. Philip’s appearance made the female receptionist perplexed for a moment. She got up, walked over with a gentle smile on her face, and asked, “Hello, are you here to apply for a job?” Philip chuckled, shook his head, and said, “No, I'm here to see your general manager.” The female receptionist looked at Philip suspiciously. She did not treat him differently just because he was dressed in an ordinary outfit. She smiled slightly and asked, “Do you have an appointment? Our general manager is in a meeting, so she’s not free right now.” Philip nodded, found a spot to sit down, and said, “It’s okay, I’ll wait.” The female receptionist smiled and poured him a cup of tea before she returned to work. Philip sat there leisurely, drinking tea and basking in the sun. He enjoyed a rare moment of peace and quiet. At this moment, a man with
“Haha!” Herb immediately laughed and said, “What did you say? I’ll regret it? You're just a nobody. What right do you have to say such arrogant words? You're just here looking for a job. Who do you think you are? Are you worthy to see our Miss Summer?” Herb was unhappy. This fool was really cocky. However, Philip’s face remained calm. He glanced at the trembling female receptionist standing there and said, “Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you.” The female receptionist was full of panic and suspicions. She glanced at Philip and hesitated for a moment before saying to Herb, “Mr. Lyon, don't be angry. I'll deal with it.” After that, she hurriedly faced Philip, grabbed his hand, and pulled him out. She said, “You should leave quickly. You don’t know Mr. Lyon’s temper. It won’t end well for you if you offend him.” Philip looked at the woman who was dragging him away, smiling faintly at the corner of his mouth. Such a kind-hearted person. He got out of the other
Philip waved his hand indifferently. “It’s okay if you don't want to talk about it. Everyone is entitled to their own secrets.” Celeste glared at Darius unhappily. What a goof. Since Vanna did not bring it up, it proved that she did not want to talk about it. “Yes, that’s what I meant too, but I spoke too soon!” Darius apologized awkwardly, feeling a little nervous. Vanna could not help laughing at his reaction. “I have nothing to hide. I'm from the Celestial Palace. Our people are indeed very different from you. We’re the only ones with this curse. “I ran away from the Celestial Palace. My people wanted to marry me off to a loser, so I ran away in a panic, but I’ve reached the age when I have to break the curse. If I don't do it before I turn 20, I'll have to keep that ugly face for the rest of my life.” Everyone understood the whole story with that explanation, but no one had seen it coming. “But that guy from the Cohen family isn’t any better. I heard that he’s also a
This matter would become very serious if Vanna married someone else. “Not exactly. She has been taken away by someone else.” Lazlo was relieved when he heard that these people were looking for Vanna. She was nothing but trouble. He wanted nothing to do with her anymore. “Who took her?” the man asked fiercely. He could not shirk responsibility if Vanna married someone else. He would not be the only one in trouble. All his subordinates might die too. “It’s a guy named Ronan. That disgusting man simply stole her away! But we don’t know much about his identity.” Lazlo told them everything he knew. After hearing Lazlo out, the man scowled and turned to his subordinates. “We need to resolve this quickly. If it goes beyond our control, just take action. We can’t afford any accidents.” Lazlo could not understand the man's cryptic message, but it was not meant for him anyway. “What’s going on?” Lazlo was full of doubts as he watched them leave, wondering who they were. They plan
“Why are you so embarrassed? That’s good news. It’s not easy to find two people who appreciate each other, and I think she has quite a noble status. It’s a good choice for you to be with her.” Philip smiled calmly, a little surprised at Ronan’s decision. Celeste and Darius were also surprised, but they gave Ronan their blessing. “Not bad. I’m surprised that you realized it. Although Vanna looks scary, she was simply cursed. Once you marry her, she’ll regain her true appearance. It’s a good thing!” Celeste smiled. As a woman, she could understand the despair of being ugly for the rest of her life. Vanna was clearly happy with Ronan, and they looked very good together. Suddenly, Philip heard a commotion outside the door. He walked out and saw a crowd marching across the street. They felt similar to Vanna. They walked to Lazlo’s home without stopping. Philip watched the excitement and went back home after making sure that it had nothing to do with him. Ronan and Vanna had de
Nothing would be more reliable than their prediction. Celeste glanced at Darius. They nodded and dragged Philip to a deserted corner. “That woman exudes a very gentle aura. If she puts on a veil, she can surely rule over the world.” When they saw Vanna, they felt that she had a strong healing power as if she could heal with a glance. “I believe she has the ability to cure diseases and save lives. That's how she easily saved the young heir of the Cohen family. But I can't figure out why such a capable person would choose to marry a scumbag. It’s very puzzling.” Celeste sighed helplessly. Although she never thought highly of her prediction ability and her self-protection ability was even worse, she would never choose such a man either. Philip shrugged. The woman had to be hiding something. Since she kept quiet, Philip did not ask either. Ronan was the one who rescued her, so he would let Ronan solve it. “I noticed something about her. If I’m not mistaken, she has a holy aur
Although Lazlo spent a fortune, the result was satisfactory. “How ignorant.” The bride trembled with anger. She wanted to say something, but Lazlo clearly tricked her. Ronan was angry at this scene, shocked to see such shameless people. “Young lady, stop wasting your time on them and come with me instead. You’ll only suffer more insults if you stay. They're very powerful. You’re no match for them!” Ronan grabbed the bride and walked away with her. She would only be humiliated if she remained. It was better to leave. Seeing this, Lazlo wanted to stop them and show them how powerful he was, but he quickly changed his mind. He still had a mess to deal with, so he would put Ronan aside for the time being. He had to deal with the major families. At least, he could not destroy his reputation. Lazlo signaled his men before turning to his business partners. Everyone smiled at each other insincerely. It was just fake networking. The bride followed Ronan outside before she realiz
“I think she’s right. You have no right to despise her for being ugly! If you have the ability to cure the groom’s disease, you can marry into a wealthy family too! You’re a loser for putting her down because of her looks!” Ronan’s sudden interruption surprised the bride. She never thought that someone would speak up for her in this situation. “Enough with this fiasco. Hurry up and end it!” Lazlo frowned and glanced at the people next to him. He had replaced the useless guards earlier. These people were carefully selected experts. The experts quickly flagged Ronan as a troublemaker and wanted to throw him out. “Let’s call off the wedding for the time being. We didn’t think it through carefully. We’ll decide after careful consideration. Please excuse us,” Lazlo said calmly but he was fuming inside. He knew that this was a disgrace to the family. He had never thought a woman could play him out like that. Lazlo glared daggers at Celeste in front of him. 'I wouldn’t have be
By right, everyone should respect Lazlo, but these people simply wanted to humiliate him instead. Lazlo always took advantage of them during their business dealings, so they wanted to teach him a lesson. For the sake of his dignity, Lazlo could not lose his temper either. “Hehe, the bride is coming!” Lazlo gritted his teeth and asked someone to bring the bride out. Everyone looked around eagerly, waiting to see what this legendary woman looked like. The bride wore a veil on her face, and no one could see her appearance clearly. “The bride is bound by the rules of her race, so she’s not allowed to show her face in public, but you can tell from her figure that she's indeed very beautiful. My daughter-in-law is not to be underestimated!” Lazlo laughed. It was the only option he could think of. Some nosy people created a gust of wind that blew the veil away. Very soon, the woman’s ugly face was revealed to the public. Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene. They gulped nervous
“But she’d be very attractive if she covered her face.” Her figure was very good, but her face was scary. Anyone who saw that face would probably be haunted by nightmares. Philip was curious. The woman could cure the groom’s disease, which proved that she had that ability. In that case, why was she in such a hurry to marry? With an ability like that, she could easily survive on her own. “She caught me red-handed peeking at her. Although it was embarrassing, she was very gentle and didn’t say anything. It’s a pity that I can’t deal with that appearance!” Ronan said awkwardly, ashamed at the thought of being caught red-handed. Philip rolled his eyes helplessly. He was no longer in the mood to watch the fun. Staying there was just a waste of time. He would rather leave. He was not interested in the free meal. Suddenly, they smelled a strange fragrance. Ronan frowned and rubbed his nose. The smell made him feel uncomfortable. “Someone is poisoning us,” Philip said calmly.
Lazlo knew that he would be doomed if he fell into Philip's hands. He decided to run away in a panic, but it did not mean he was going to give up. Celeste was his only hope to regain his dignity, and he would never let her off. “Keep a close eye on the situation. It’s best if you can knock Celeste out and bring her to me,” Lazlo ordered his men before he left. Since his men could not do it openly, they had to resort to some underhanded tricks. Lazlo had more than a team of guards under his command. Although the captain of the guards was no match for Philip, it did not mean that Lazlo was out of options. He had to solve this problem at all costs. Philip had no choice but to take Celeste away. Who knew they would encounter such a mess? “I never knew I was so charming that the guy wants me to marry his son,” Celeste said ironically. To think that something like this would happen to her. The people of her race were so valuable that they could not marry just anyone, let alone
