Giada was extremely anxious. Once Philip returned to Arcadia Island and gained power, the plan she had been laying out for so many years would be for nothing. Even if she had a backup plan, the threat posed to Philip in the future would be inconsequential. The Wallis family would be completely reduced to a subservient family under the Clarke family! She was unwilling to concede! The former supreme frowned, and his face was bitterly cold. After a pause, he said, “I’ll get my Alpha Camp to surround Uppercreek.” After hearing this, Giada breathed a sigh of relief and said, “That would be best!” However, the former supreme asked again, “Madam Wallis, what do you think our chances of winning are?” Giada’s expression changed as she frowned. She glanced at the sky outside and said, “Even if there’s no chance of winning, I’ll still do my best this time. Because you and I are already tied to the same boat. Once this matter is exposed, neither one of us will end well!” When the
Upon hearing that, the former supreme trembled all over, and his face was full of shock! Relieved of all duties? Supreme title removed? What was the difference between this and releasing military power with a cup of wine? The former supreme quivered slightly as his eyes showed a strong chill. He grabbed the golden paper document branded with various red seals from the hands of the man in combat uniform! It really came from the Imperial Palace! The seal on the document was genuine! “Why is this so? How could the Imperial Preceptor treat me this way? I, Sade Jagger, have served the country and the people all my life. I’ve never crossed the line by even half a step. Why is the Imperial Preceptor treating me this way?” The former supreme was full of tears and desolate chills. The Imperial Preceptor’s golden order had directly deprived the former supreme of his lifetime of merits! Although he was to be relieved of his duties to enjoy his retirement in peace, what was the d
Entering the hall, Giada turned around and glanced at the situation outside the door. The personnel in combat uniforms had really taken over the entire Cirrus Villa. “Damn it!” Giada punched the sofa angrily before she quickly dialed a number and said coldly, “Why did the Imperial Preceptor take action? Is the Gentleman Court just going to stand by and watch as Philip Clarke makes his return?” On the other end of the phone, a calm and weather-beaten voice rang out, “The Imperial Preceptor’s move was within my expectation. Your Wallis family shouldn’t interfere in this matter any longer. The change in the game is not something you can deal with.” After saying that, the call was hung up. … The line of sight shifted to a luxurious manor somewhere in the mountains. A stoic and weather-beaten figure wearing a black suit was standing in a small garden and looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back. A servant hurried over at this time, handed him a phone, and said, “My
The man in the tunic pushed his glasses before a faint smile appeared on his lips. He asked, “Imperial Preceptor, are you asking about the writing or the person?” The man wearing the white robe embroidered with gold dragon and fire phoenix glanced sideways at the middle-aged man beside him, saying with a laugh, “What do you think of the writing?” “Grand and majestic. Strong penmanship. Quite the legacy. The word written by the Imperial Preceptor is worth its weight in gold,” the middle-aged man said with a slight bow. The Imperial Preceptor laughed and asked, “What about the person?” The middle-aged man revealed a subtle smile and said, “I believe you should know this person better than me.” Hearing that, the Imperial Preceptor put the pen on the desk, placed both hands in front of his belly, and said, “Tell me about him.” The middle-aged man complied with his request and said, “An unprecedented presence like no other.” The Imperial Preceptor frowned at his words and look
At the same time, several secret messages were relayed from the Imperial Palace to various forces in all places! Everyone lurking in Uppercreek at this moment or standing guard outside the country received the golden order from the Imperial Palace. Anyone who crossed the border or caused trouble in the territory would be executed! As soon as this golden order was issued, half of the people lying in ambush in Uppercreek or standing guard outside the country received the shock of their lives! The Imperial Preceptor’s Golden Order! After 15 years, the Imperial Preceptor’s Golden Order was issued again! The Imperial Preceptor was an irreplaceable figure in the territory! He was the person who controlled the entire chessboard in the country! Instantly, these people started to slowly withdraw from Uppercreek after receiving the golden order. Fighting against the country was tantamount to cracking a stone with an egg! The Imperial Preceptor was a title that overwhelmed eve
Philip felt a little amazed when he saw Fulton. Even Fulton was here? What was his father doing? Was this pompadour really necessary? “Why are you here too?” Philip asked with a frown. If he understood Fulton’s words correctly, all members of the Shadow Squadron were here as well? This was in addition to the Dragon Knights from just now. What exactly was his father going to do, sending so many great characters to a small Uppercreek? With a respectful look on his face, Fulton replied, “The lord has ordered us to escort Young Lord back to the island. The Dragon Knights have taken the lead to place the entire Uppercreek under martial law. All the members of the Shadow Squadron are gathered outside the hospital at this moment, waiting for the young lord and young lady to return to the island at any time.” Philip’s face tensed. He was just about to speak when Martha stepped forward from behind him and pointed at Fulton as she exclaimed, “I’ve seen you before. Weren’t you the
Wynn felt her head aching as she said with a pale face, “Mom, can you stop making a fuss…” Martha saw the situation and still wanted to say something when Philip stepped forward with a frosty look on his face. Seeing Philip’s expression and the look in his eyes, Martha’s heart thumped as she dodged, asking, “W-What do you want to do? Don’t do it. I'm your mother-in-law. I’m Wynnie’s… Hey, don’t touch me!” Martha wanted to continue shouting when Philip got close, grabbed Martha by her hair, and yanked her out the door. He said coldly, “My wife needs to rest. You should get out for now.” Charles and Wynn were stunned at that scene. Charles immediately ran out and shouted, “Philip, be gentle. Give her a break.” Wynn glanced at the scene with tears in her eyes. Then, she looked at the child in the incubator beside her as an inadvertent blissful smile appeared on her lips. On this side, Philip yanked Martha’s hair and threw her out the door. Martha lost her footing and stagg
It was an island… This sentence kept repeating in Martha’s mind. What the heck? What island? “Philip, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about? Your home is an island? Are you kidding me?” Martha almost went crazy with anger. She pointed at Philip’s nose and flung all sorts of curses at him. This damned son-in-law dared to spout such ridiculous words! An island? Did he think she was uncultured and easy to deceive? She was not a foolish young girl of 18 who would believe anything! Philip snorted as he looked at Martha with a trace of disdain and said, “Do I need to lie to you?” His words and the look in his eyes caused Martha’s heart to thump rapidly! Could it be? This brat’s home was really on an island? A thought crossed Martha’s mind and she said mockingly, “Oh, I get it now. You must be a fisherman in the coastal area. I heard that some fishermen have been living on the island for generations. Alas, I heard that the living conditions of those fi
