Philip did not refute Martha but merely stood there silently. Martha was very angry and broke away from the crowd. She rushed over, slapped Philip, tugged at his clothes, and cursed, “Do you still have the nerve to stand here? Get lost, go away! Take that unlucky son of yours and get lost!” Martha was furious! Her daughter who was in good condition before suffered from hemorrhage just from giving birth! If anything happened to Wynn, how would Martha live in the future? She still wanted to live a good life by relying on Wynn! Moreover, people from the Lovelace family had come looking for her. They said that they would give her 100 million for Wynn to be acknowledged by the Lovelace family. Martha was moved at that time, but she refused after thinking about it and even had a big fight with the other party. She was not so wicked to that extent. At this moment, everyone gasped when they saw Martha slapping Philip! This mother-in-law was a little reckless. This was mai
On the way here, Martha had thought about it carefully. Wynn had given birth to a son. At any rate, they could reap a fortune from Philip, right? Now, Wynn was hemorrhaging and undergoing emergency rescue. Who could predict what would happen after this? She coughed and said unabashedly, “If my daughter is gone, all the assets under your name will belong to the Johnston family! As for Beacon Group, don’t you even think of touching a penny! It belongs to my daughter. Don’t think of taking advantage of the situation!” Martha had made clear calculations. If something really happened to Wynn, Philip would naturally inherit everything as her spouse. The company as well as everything else would belong to him. Martha Yates was not stupid. She must make an agreement now! Hearing this, Philip frowned deeply as he clenched his fists tightly. His entire body exuded a chill! He did not expect that at this point, Martha would still be thinking of her daughter’s fortune! Abominable!
Smack! The hand was raised and the slap fell. The crisp slap resounded in the hospital corridor! “Martha Yates, you’re not worthy to be a mother! If you dare say another word, I won’t let you speak again for the rest of your life!” Philip roared in anger, his eyes ablaze and his fists clenched. He wanted to tear Martha’s mouth off right now! However, she was Wynn’s mother and Wynn was still in the operating room undergoing emergency rescue. He must bear with it! After that, Philip turned around with his back to everyone. Everyone could feel a hint of coldness and dormant killing intent from his broad and imposing back! This time, Philip was really angry! The calmer it was, the bigger the storm that was coming their way! When the surrounding people saw Philip's decisive move, they felt as if his strike had helped them vent their anger! It felt too good! The repressed mood just now was instantly lifted! It would be best to beat that crazy woman to death! She w
Smack! Martha slapped Charles’ hand away and chastised coldly, “Son-in-law? What kind of son-in-law is he? What has he done for us all these years? Has he ever given us a good life? Take that villa for instance. He probably used the company’s funds to buy it, but he’s guarding against us like he’s guarding against a thief.” Charles sighed and said, “Stop talking so much. He helped us settle the case with Martin and Bernard.” Martha refused to listen and shouted, “Bah! What's the use of that? Martin and Bernard have founded their own company now. Besides, why should I stop talking? At first, I thought that he was just a useless loser. Who knew that he was the young master of a wealthy family and the owner of that Clarke Group in the capital city? So I thought that I could live a rich life from then on, but what happened after that? They went bankrupt and Philip Clarke is still a useless loser! Why didn't he tell us when he wasn't broke? Why still rely on the Johnston family after
At this moment, Martha had been slapped silly by the furious Charles! With her cheeks burning with pain, her eyes flickered with avoidance as she looked at Charles while asking, “What do you mean who he is? Charles Johnston, are you f*cking crazy? How dare you hit me? I’m your wife!” Martha was annoyed. Without a care in the world, she struggled to fight with Charles! Charles was furious. He had never felt that his wife was so unreasonable before. She did not know how to observe her surroundings and the people around her! Smack! He slapped her again, and this slap contained all the frustrations that he had bottled up for half a lifetime! Martha stumbled to the floor from the slap! She covered her mouth. Several teeth with fillings were knocked out at this moment, and blood gushed from her mouth. “Boo-hoo, good for you, Charles. Not only have you turned your back on me but you also dare to hit me. Are you still human? I’ve been with you for decades. I gave birth to your
The nurse looked at Philip and said, “Mr. Clarke, we’re still doing our best.” With that said, she looked at Charles and Martha and said, “What are you waiting for? Go on!” Without hesitation, Charles quickly said, “Okay, I’ll go right now! Take as much as you need!” However, as soon as he said this, Martha quickly grabbed hold of him. She kept making eyes at him as she pulled him aside and whispered, “Charles, are you crazy?” “What do you mean I’m crazy? Why are you pulling me? I need to give blood to our daughter!” Charles could not be bothered to explain to Martha and wanted to go with the nurse. As a result, Martha tugged at him violently, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, “Give blood? Is your blood compatible with Wynn? You must be crazy! If you do this, the secret that we’ve been keeping all these years will be exposed!” Her words were like a hammer to Charles’ heart! He turned to Martha nervously, hesitant to speak. That was right. Wynn was not his biolog
On the other end of the line, George trembled and quickly asked, “Young Master, people with golden blood, Rh-null blood type? Why are you suddenly looking for them?” George could not figure it out. He knew that this was an ultra-rare blood type! Less than 100 people in the entire world were found to have this! Moreover, there were less than ten in the country! Philip said gravely, “Wynn just gave birth and has lost a lot of blood. This is her blood type and she needs it urgently.” Hearing this, George was taken aback. He almost choked as he said, “What? Young Madam has given birth prematurely? This… How could this be? Young Master, don’t worry. I’ll issue the Clarke family’s reward notice immediately!” Before George had time to get ready, he immediately dialed the internal number of the Clarke family. “Immediately issue a Clarke family S-level reward notice to look for people with the Rh-null blood type worldwide! No matter the cost, transport them to Uppercreek immediate
Hearing this, Charles and Martha fell silent. Martha kept tugging at Charles’ sleeve and making eyes at him. Charles thought for a moment and asked, “How did you find out?” Philip replied, “Martin Johnston wanted to threaten me and Wynn with the Lovelace family’s incident to take over Beacon Group. I dealt with him and found out about this secret. At present, no one else knows except for them, you two, and me.” Charles breathed a sigh of relief at this, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a nod, “Good, it’s good that she doesn’t know. If Wynnie finds out that we’re not her biological parents, then…” Charles did not continue further. After all, they naturally had feelings for a daughter they had raised for more than 20 years. Philip nodded in agreement, looked coldly at Martha who was hesitating to say something, and said, “Dad, I called you over just to tell you that this matter must not be made known to Wynn. Since you chose to keep such a secret, keep it
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
