Fred’s face was ashen at this moment. His pupils trembled as he glared angrily at Philip and the others! Damn it! He had walked right into the trap! He did not expect that even the hidden forces he had prepared for ten years were dealt with overnight! Fred sneered and said, “Indeed, you’re not an ordinary person. I didn’t expect that an experienced person like myself would fall for a trap laid out by a junior like you! But don’t think that I’d be afraid of you just because you’ve caught them! The hotel has been surrounded by my people! All of them will listen to my instructions and act accordingly! At most, we’ll just perish together!” Philip shook his head indifferently as he looked at the furious Fred. “Perish together? I’m afraid you won’t have that chance.” Fred was puzzled. His expression tensed as he asked, “What do you mean?” Philip shrugged and said, “You can see for yourself what’s going on around the building.” Fred was flustered. He hurried to the window and
Milo Dunley was also full of shock at this moment. He thought that Fred was more than capable enough to handle the situation. Now that he had seen part of Philip's strength with his own eyes, however, his heart was full of dismay! This sort of formidable method was really not something he could deal with! This group of combatants alone was not something Milo could easily get his hands on! “Homer, don’t panic. The situation isn’t out of our control yet,” Milo said solemnly before he said to the driver, “Go back first. We need to come up with another plan!” With that said, the car quickly left the hotel. After Milo and the rest returned to the villa, their expressions were very ugly. Homer looked as though he had fallen into a pool of water as beads of cold sweat had covered his forehead. Hector also started to panic and cried out, “Dad, what should we do now? Will those people come and catch us? I don’t want to be caught by them! You need to send me out of the country! I d
“You… You’ve gone to the main Dunley family in Hampton?” Homer’s voice went up a pitch as he asked while glancing at Milo next to him. Milo’s expression was also very unpleasant but he immediately mocked, “Boy, Hampton is the territory of the main Dunley family! You’re bold enough to dare go there alone, but I’m afraid you won’t come back in one piece!” Hehe. Philip had already entered Hampton! He was sitting in the helicopter, looking down at the most developed city in Charbury—Hampton! This was where the main Dunley family was located. They were also the pillar of the entire Dunley family! The sound of the propellers whistled in his ears. At one glance, the tallest building in Hampton was like a giant sword that plunged into the sky! This landmark building in Hampton belonged to the main Dunley family—Dunley Group! It was the tallest and most luxurious building in Hampton! It was more than 400 meters high! “Milo Dunley, the main Dunley family may be a sacred exist
This fifth uncle was none other than the fifth uncle of the patriarch of the main Dunley family, Winston Dunley. He was the half-brother of the former patriarch of the main Dunley family. In terms of seniority, he was the fifth uncle of the current patriarch of the Dunley family, Sterling Dunley. He was also the family head of the branch Dunley family in Flower City! Milo and Homer were Winston’s nephews. Homer and Milo’s father died young. Winston’s status in the main Dunley family was not low, and he was also quite reputable in Hampton. As soon as Milo said that, he took out his phone and dialed Winston’s number. The phone rang five or six times before it was picked up. A calm and aged voice came from the other end, asking, “Milo, is there anything wrong that you’re calling me at this hour?” Milo was full of compliments with a respectful smile on his face as he said, “Fifth Uncle, how have you been?” “As good as I can be.” The old man on the other end laughed and
“Okay, we’ll leave this to you,” Milo said before he hung up the phone respectfully. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief. With a triumphant smile, he said to Homer, “Homer, it’s settled. With Uncle Winston taking action, this matter will come to an end at last.” Homer also let out a breath of relief and fell heavily on the sofa, covered in a cold sweat. It was finally resolved. With Uncle Winston around, no matter how capable Philip was, he should not think of making any waves in Hampton! On the side, Hector also burst out in laughter and said, “Dad, I already told you that everything will be fine. With Fifth Grandpa around, who can do anything to the Dunley family of Flower City?” As he said that, he sat on the sofa swaggeringly, crossed his legs, and picked up an apple to munch on. Homer glared at him fiercely and shouted angrily, “From today onward, you’ll be grounded at home for three months! After this matter is resolved, I’ll send you out of the country!”
The car quickly drove away and headed to the Dunley Group building. In the car, Philip dialed Jowin Benson’s number and asked, “Do you know Winston Dunley?” Jowin was dealing with Fred’s affairs in Flower City at the moment. When he received the call from Philip, he quickly replied, “Winston Dunley? Young Master Clarke, this person is an important figure in the main Dunley family with quite a bit of influence in Hampton. He’s the fifth uncle of Sterling Dunley, the current patriarch of the Dunley family. He's also the current head of the Dunley family of Flower City, the backer behind Homer and Milo Dunley, as well as their uncle.” Philip nodded and said, “Okay, I got it.” Then, he ended the call and said to the man next to him who was on the computer, “Can you contact Winston Dunley?” The computer expert replied, “Yes, one minute.” A minute later, Philip got Winston’s number and made the call directly. The phone rang a few times before it was connected. An old voice from
Hearing that, Winston scowled. At this moment, he had entered the building of the Dunley Group. He took the gilded private elevator and went straight to the upper floor of the building. Of course, it was not the topmost floor. The top floor was the office of Sterling Dunley, the patriarch of the entire Dunley family. His office was on four floors below the top. In fact, the floor level of the Dunley Group building represented the hierarchical status and identity of the owner of the floor in the main Dunley family. Winston Dunley, as the fifth uncle of the patriarch of the main Dunley family, had a lot of status and influence in the Dunley family. Moreover, he was mainly in charge of the Dunley family’s foreign trade and export. At this moment, Winston walked out of the elevator and pushed open the gilded door of his office. He was angry, and with a sneer on his face, he walked to the French windows where he took a cup of coffee from the maid. He said solemnly, “Young man,
“Immediately send some people to Hampton by any means necessary. Whether by air or land, send the most elite combatants and have them use the most advanced equipment. Make sure to protect the young master's safety! If anything happens to him, I’ll hold all of you accountable!” George shouted coldly before hanging up the phone. Just at this moment, one of his subordinates was staring at the computer before he got up and reported, “Mr. Thomas, the other party is trying to use their power to collect information about the young master.” George sneered and said, “Hehe, this bunch of small fries have no idea what real power is! Do people like them have the right to dig out information about the young master? Wishful thinking! Spread out false information about the young master!” “Yes!” Very quickly, everyone started operating. Ten minutes later, Winston’s people found first-hand information about Philip. “Mr. Winston, we got it!” an employee stood up excitedly and exclaimed. Wi
Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.
It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not
Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S
“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family
“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
