Michael’s eyes twitched. The two of them were flirting with each other in front of him. They were not respecting him at all!Damn it!How dare they look down on him?Michale was furious. He pointed at Philip and shouted, “Kid, don’t blame me for being vicious. You asked for all of these! Go! Cripple him and take that woman away!”More than ten of Michael’s thugs approached Philip while smirking.Could one man defeat more than ten of them?He overestimated his ability.A few people in the crowd were shaking their heads and sighing helplessly.That was it. That kid was done for.That was Michael Moseby. He was well-known for being cruel. Whenever someone crossed him, it would be as if they had crossed a mad dog. He would target you your entire life.However, Philip was calm in dealing with this. He took out his phone slowly and dialed a number. Then, he said coldly, “Jim, when are you getting here? I’m being blocked by your manager at your restaurant.”At the same time, a midd
Jim did not come to the restaurant much. Most of the time, he just let Michael handle this place.As Jim could not watch over Michael since he was so far away, Michael’s prestige in the restaurant naturally became higher and higher over time.However, in front of Jim, he was just a little boy.“Oh no, Mr. Winger is here!”“Hehe, I’m sure that kid won’t be able to escape now. He’s such an idiot!”“Who told him to be so arrogant just now? He might be able to solve this by apologizing and offering compensation. I’m sure Mr. Winger will not forgive him.”Doug was being helped up from the ground. His face was covered in blood. When he saw Jim, he acted like he just saw his savior. He wailed and said, “Sir, you have to help me! That kid made me this way. He’s too savage!”However, reality exceeded everyone’s expectations.Jim did not pay attention to the Moseby brothers. Who were Doug and Michael Moseby? They were only excrement and trash to him now. Jim would not hesitate to punish
Jim felt a bone-piercing chill after he heard that sentence.The young master was livid.Jim nodded furiously. He had a nervous expression on his face when he said, “Got it!”Then, he turned around and kicked Michael’s stomach. Michael fell on his face. Jim shouted at Michael indifferently, “Michael Moseby, from now on, you’re not the manager of my restaurant!”Michael was furious. He was shaking all over.“F*ck you! Jim Winger, don’t think that I won’t do anything to you because you fired me! I have more than ten men here! Do you think you’ll be able to handle it if we start rioting?”Michael was savage. He was relying on having more people on his side. Then, he stood up from the ground and rubbed his stomach. When he said that, his men approached them. His men were trying to force them to submit.Jim’s face was dark as he shouted to Michael’s men, “Are you blind? Don’t you know who I am? Jim Winger! If anyone dares to take one more f*cking step, I’ll kill their entire family
The customers who were watching the scene unfold all sucked in huge breaths.He was so savage!This was the first time they witnessed someone playing around with money like this.What a nouveau riche!Was this how rich people did things?They were so envious. It was difficult for someone to not feel jealous of a rich man when he was acting like this.However, Ruby and her friends missed out on this.If they had seen it, how would they fawn over Philip?Ruby would definitely dump Howard with no hesitation. Then, she would try to seduce Philip.At this point, Michael was shaking all over.He could not believe what he just saw.All of his men left him for tens of thousands of dollars.That kid was so rich!Michael was frantic. He was scared.What kind of person did his brother offend?Philip stared at the panicking Michael and said, “What do you think I’ll do to you?”Michael started sweating buckets when he heard that.Thud!In an instant, Michael knelt on the ground an
However, before he could continue, Wynn shifted her body and found a more comfortable position. Then, she grabbed Philip’s waist and closed her eyes. “I’m tired.”Philip stopped talking. He held her with his right hand and the two fell into silence.It had been a long while since he was this intimate with Wynn.How should he tell Wynn about who he was?Maybe he should find another chance.Philip got out of the car and carried Wynn back to the Old Johnston Manor.Martha was excited today. She had never seen so many gold and silver jewelry before. There were also two million in cash. Martha wanted to sleep while holding the dollar bills.“Eh, you’re back? What’s wrong with Wynn?” When Martha heard the knocking on the door, she opened the door and saw Philip carrying Wynn.Philip carried Wynn into her room and removed her heels and coat for her. Then, he sat at the head of the bed with adoration in his eyes. He was watching Wynn who was sleeping soundly.Her nicely-done eyebrow
After being silent for a while, Philip threw away his cigarette. He walked out of the hospital and got into a Benz that was parked in front of the entrance.The car drove slowly in the night, passing the main road of Riverdale. Then, it crossed Scarlet Bridge and went into the darkness of the hillside. After that, it drove along the mountainous road and stopped at a manor at the peak of Mount Cirrus.Cirrus Manor.It was the most extravagant and valuable manor in Riverdale.The construction cost alone was one billion bucks!They had hollowed half of the mountain for this manor.Construction started seven years ago. It took three years to finish.A lot of manpower, resources, and money were spent on this huge project.The most mysterious thing about this manor was that no one knew who the owner of this manor was.There were rumors that the owner of this manor was extremely rich and powerful.Some powerful people even said that anyone who was a guest of the manor would be a gia
“What are you trying to do?” Philip’s face turned cold, and he started feeling anxious.He knew about Giada’s methods. This woman would not hesitate to get rid of her rivals—including her own son.When he was eight, she asked someone to run over him with a car.There was only one reason. It was because she was afraid that he might be the obstacle in her process of taking over the Clarkes.A tiger, though cruel, would not devour its cubs.However, in Giada’s eyes, power was her only priority.When Giada mentioned Philip’s marriage and his daughter, he started to panic.This was also the main reason why Philip had not exposed his identity.“Don’t worry, they’re the daughter-in-law and bloodline of the Clarkes. If you beg me, I’ll let them go.” Giada’s smile would give anyone a bone-piercing chill. It was extremely offensive.“I’m warning you, don’t you dare touch Wynn and Mila. If not, I’ll make you regret this,” Philip said coldly.Giada chuckled calmly. She took out two embro
She was Aunt Paula's only child. She was aloof and looked down on everyone.When they were young, Samantha had been jealous of Wynn. No matter what it was, she had to compare herself to Wynn."Cousin, please give us a short while. We'll be ready soon," Wynn said apologetically.Samantha raised the corners of her lips with a presumptuous look on her face. She shouted at Philip, "Get out of the way, useless piece of trash. Why are you standing there?!"Philip smiled and stepped out of her way in silence.Samantha pushed him abruptly, patted her hands on her clothes in disgust, and muttered, "You stink." After Samantha swaggered away, the entire family was not in the best mood.Martha slammed her hand on the table and started cursing, "What does Samantha mean?! What a b*tch! She dares come to my house and complain about it! What does she have to show for? Her rich husband? She even said that our house smells musty. I’m so mad!"Martha’s anger erupted like a volcano.She had anti
Most people would be freaked out at the sight of his face. He took out a photo from his pocket and held it in his hand angrily. “Argent, you've enjoyed your life long enough. It’s time to get what you deserve.” The mysterious man smiled cruelly with obvious hatred for Argent. This whole incident had nothing to do with Philip at all. Philip was simply a pitiful pawn in these people’s hands. Philip never dreamed that someone would target him for no reason. He just wanted to improve his strength. He could not care less about what other people thought of him.… Time passed quickly. The next day, Philip did not expect these people to come after him so soon. He just wanted to have a good rest and find a suitable place to settle down, but these people were as annoying as pesky flies. “Philip, get out here at once. I want to see how strong you are. How dare you show off in front of me?” Argent yelled at Philip’s door in disdain. His right hand was bandaged tightly as if he was still
The mysterious man forced himself to contain his anger and smile at Argent. Argent knew that he had to stop asking for more. At this point, what was the most important? “I can give you Philip’s address, and we can deal with him tomorrow morning. If you teach him a good lesson, I’m sure he’ll listen to you,” Argent said smugly. His plan was simple. He wanted to use the other party to deal with Philip. Philip had messed with him earlier and crippled his right hand. He would have died if he had not stopped the bleeding in time. Therefore, the grudge between him and Philip was so deep that he could not wait to rip Philip into pieces. Argent and the mysterious man who refused to reveal his name quickly came up with a plan. “In that case, I’ll see you again tomorrow morning. I hope you won't let me down.” After saying this, the mysterious man zoomed into the distance and soon disappeared. Seeing the other party’s hasty retreat, Argent was full of disdain. “Hehe, you think too hig
“Wow, you guys are so generous to send me such a precious gift this time. Tell me more about the deal you want to discuss with me. If it’s up to my expectations, I can consider it.” Argent's mood changed for the better. He smiled brightly and did not consider other possibilities. He seemed to have forgotten the conflict and resentment he had toward Philip. “We know that a young heroic man has appeared in Deadly Arena this time. We’re very interested in him and have decided to recruit him. I heard that you fought him before. I wonder if he's as powerful as I imagined.” The other party did not introduce himself but looked at Argent with a smile. Argent scowled. He thought that this matter was over, but this guy brought it up again. He was obviously trying to belittle him. “Hehe, let’s forget it. I don’t have much of an opinion about Philip. He’s just an average person, nothing worth mentioning.” Argent was afraid of exposing his shame, so he tried to tarnish Philip’s reputati
After confirming that he could leave safely, Argent ran away quickly, unwilling to stay a second longer. Philip was so terrifying that he wanted to keep his distance from him. Argent simply wanted to rob Philip of his treasures, but he was seriously injured instead. He could not accept it. Argent quickly ran back home. He had settled down with his family after such a long time. Given his strength, no one refused his requests. Argent’s family members simply wanted to follow someone strong, so they did not mind doing anything. In the meantime, an uninvited guest appeared at Argent’s home. He did not make an appointment with Argent in advance, so Argent did not know him. When Argent returned home in a mess, they bumped into each other. “I’m surprised to see the head of the family looking so miserable. I’m here at the right time.” The man stared at Argent mockingly as if he was enjoying the show. Argent was annoyed by his reaction, angry that an outsider had seen him in his most mi
Argent felt fear grip him. Philip’s earlier action was terrifying, as if he could grab his soul with a wave of his hand. Philip laughed at Argent’s hasty retreat, amused by his cowardice. “I just wanted to scare you. There's no need to dodge so quickly,” he said with a chuckle. Argent was furious by Philip’s shameless prank. Although he was angry, Argent had to give up his absurd plan when he thought of Philip's strength. Philip was not to be trifled with. He had to watch out. Before he could slip away and mess with Philip another day, Philip grabbed his right hand abruptly, leaving him no time to react. Argent’s right hand lost all sensation as if it had been crippled. He looked down at his right hand in a panic and was shocked to find that his right arm had vanished. “What the hell is going on? How could you do this to me?” He was shocked that Philip could break his defense so easily and cripple him. He was a force to be reckoned with, and not everyone could go against hi
Argent was nothing more than average, but he was so full of himself. Philip felt that he might be inferior to the other party in that aspect. “All the rewards are in my hands. If you really want them, you can try to defeat me and take them away. Otherwise, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to get them with your strength.” Philip smiled at him. Although this guy was quite strong, he was no match for Philip. “I entered the top 100 of the advanced list when I was at your age. You’re nothing to me. Stop showing off in front of me.” A trace of disdain flashed across Argent’s face. He was clearly looking down on Philip. Philip nodded. This old man was very full of himself. His strength was undeniable, but it was nothing compared to Philip’s. “I heard that you don’t belong to a guild. Don't you feel ashamed? It’s a pity that no one is willing to take you in.” Philip smiled brightly. He said this on purpose to snub Argent. Argent was furious to hear Philip mocking him for this. He
After hearing Philip’s remarks, the guy trembled in anger. His name was Argent, nicknamed Silver Snake. He first came into contact with a practice technique when he was a teenager. As he did not know anything, he simply practiced the technique on his own. Unexpectedly, there was a problem with this technique. His height remained what it was in his teens, but his appearance became old. At first, he thought that he would always look like a teenager, but his appearance gradually became old and terrifying. No matter where he went after that, people would treat him as an old man even though he was only in his early 40s. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for himself, and his hatred for Philip deepened. Not only did his appearance change, but his practice level also slowly dropped to rock bottom. His mind gradually became more and more twisted because of this. Then, he stumbled into a cave and received a heritage by chance. The heritage was evil, but it helped him improve his practice
Philip nodded at the other party’s grace. “Not bad, that young man is quite decent.” Even though the other party was a middle-aged man, Philip called him a young man. Philip knew that someone else would approach him very soon. He could use this opportunity to find out more about the force behind the other party. He quickly reserved the inn and wandered around the streets. He wanted to see how many people were following him. Everyone had their own agenda and was up to no good. Philip soon saw a sneaky old man who did not seem to pose any threat. The old man looked at Philip thoughtfully with a hint of ridicule, which gave Philip an unpleasant feeling. “You should know the purpose of my visit. Do I need to elaborate?” the old man cut to the chase. Philip shook his head helplessly at the old man’s arrogance. The old man in front of him was quite powerful or he would not have been so arrogant. He thought he could deal with Philip easily with his strength. “You’re obviousl
Philip was surprised to hear that. “So, my performance was so outstanding that they can't wait to get rid of me.” Philip glanced at Duncan. Since he was not here for his money, there was no problem. Besides, he did not seem like a bad guy. “I have a job to do. I have to fulfill my responsibilities and obligations, so I need to report the situation truthfully.” Duncan knew he could not deal with Philip, so he had to find another way to negotiate with him. “If you promise not to take part in another match, I can consider letting you go for the time being. That way, I can go back and report my findings too.” He did not mention his men whom Philip took down as if they were not important at all. “Of course, I can’t agree to that. This isn’t as simple as you think. The people behind Deadly Arena won’t let me off so easily. Don’t worry about that,” Philip said with a smile. Since he knew that Duncan was from Deadly Arena, there was nothing more to say. Philip knew that Lyle
