“Hahaha!” With a loud laugh, Connor said, “Philip, do you think you can do anything to me with just this? Are you going to give this to the people of the law enforcement hall? Dream on! I can also say that this whole thing was self-directed by you!” Philip already knew that Connor would say this. Standing with his hands behind his back, he looked at the three people indifferently and said, “I know that I can’t do anything to you with this. As long as the branch family steps in, it’ll be like it never happened. However, if you think that I’m afraid and dare not do anything to you, then you’re very wrong.” Hearing this, the faces of Connor and the others darkened because they felt a chill and killing intent from Philip's body as well as eyes. “What do you want to do?” Connor asked with a frown as he felt a bad premonition. Philip smirked and glanced indifferently at Allen as he said, “I’ll give you a way out. As long as you go back and testify against him, I can ignore the pa
In an instant, Allen was thrown down! “Argh!” A scream resounded throughout the cruise. Splash! Allen plunged into the sea from the deck that was more than ten meters high! That huge impact rendered Allen unconscious in the sea! When he sucked the seawater into his lungs, Allen woke up with a jolt. He gulped a big mouthful of salty seawater into his stomach, which entered his lungs through the nasal cavity! At that moment, Allen felt like he was going to die! He could not breathe at all, and his lungs were suffocating to the point of exploding! He tried to struggle but his hands were tied up as he sank deeper into the water. He only saw the bottom of the huge cruise, the rotating propellers, and many schools of fish around. He even saw a few huge black shadows swimming around the bottom of the sea and the cruise! At that moment, Allen felt like he was going to die! Splash! He was hoisted up and half of his body was above the raging sea. Allen suddenly felt
Dropping the rocket launcher, Philip clapped his hands, looked at Allen, who had fainted from fear, and said, “Pull him up.” A few minutes later, a drenched Allen lay on the deck. Philip had changed into a white bohemian shirt with black casual pants. He had on sunglasses as well. He stood with his hands behind his back. With the sea breeze blowing, his sturdy figure was exposed under the sun, and he looked extraordinarily handsome. Just like a prince on the sea! At this moment, he put his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced at Allen who had passed out, and said, “Wake him up.” A guard stepped forward and slapped Allen twice. Allen threw up the seawater and a small fish. It fell limply on the ground, while Allen’s face was pale. Connor and Levi had been witnessing Philip’s methods from the sidelines since the start. Too scary! This guy actually dared to attack a member of the branch family! Following that, Philip looked at Allen who had woken up, and said, “I thou
Martha’s words silenced the jubilant voices on the scene. The welcoming crowd stared at Martha in amazement at this moment. This middle-aged woman looked like an ordinary housewife at a glance, and she was also dressed in ordinary clothes. How dare she say such flippant and chastising words to Fifth Madam? Oh no! Something was about to happen! Sure enough, the gentle and elegant woman with a loving smile on her face suddenly froze. A cold light flashed from the corner of her eyes. She squeezed out a smile and asked, “What did you just say?” When Philip saw this smile, he knew it was over. His fifth mother was definitely the mildest-looking but the most irritable person on the island! Even his father had to back down somewhat when his fifth mother got angry. At this moment, seeing the indifferent smile at the corner of Fifth Mother’s mouth, Philip knew that Martha’s good days had come to an end. However, Martha was oblivious and glanced suspiciously at the people aro
Hearing Philip’s words, Nadia asked worriedly, “Do you really want to do this? Phil, listen to my advice. You just came back and can’t be independent yet. There are many things on the island that you don't understand. The influence of the branch family is deeply entrenched on this island. If you go head-on against the chieftain like this, you’ll get into trouble.” Philip smiled and said, “Fifth Mother, don’t worry. I have my plans.” After saying that, he turned around and returned to Wynn’s side. Nadia stood there and watched as Philip chatted with Wynn. She shook her head helplessly and smiled. This child was still the same as before, and also the same as his father—unwilling to talk to others whenever they did anything. “Fifth Madam, should I secretly arrange for someone to spy on the movement of the branch family?” A personal guard beside Nadia asked with a serious and rigid face at this moment. Nadia thought about it and nodded while saying, “Fine, go and sniff out th
This was just the edge of the estate but there were already many villas, golf courses, leisure clubs, open-air swimming pools, zoos, and so on. There were even buildings that looked like palaces—magnificent and beautiful. Expensive trees and flowers from various countries could also be seen. There were world-class florists pruning and tending to them. Many servants and butlers in black and white uniforms also walked around. They would respectfully stop and bow when they saw the convoy. At this sight, Martha looked like she had never seen the world before. She grinned broadly from ear to ear, her eyes wide open. She was excited beyond belief. She chattered incessantly the entire way. “Charles, look at this.” “Charles, look over there.” “Wow, and that!” “Is this my son-in-law's house? This is simply a palace! It’s too luxurious! This is what a wealthy family is like. My goodness, what blessing I have in this life to have such a son-in-law.” Martha was so excited that
At this moment, everyone got out of the cars and was stunned by the sight of the vast manor in front of them! For more than ten minutes, they could not recover their senses as if they had arrived in a fairyland. They saw a whole row of classic castle buildings with five or six floors, all grand and majestic. It was just like the Palace of Versailles, with drawings of the gods ascending to the sky. It seemed to carry traces of myths and history of various countries. A huge golden-bronze gate stood in the center of this classic castle building carved with world maps and various mythological characters. Everything looked like a treasure of humankind. Martha was already shocked by the scene before her eyes and could not stand still anymore. When she got out of the car, she realized how luxurious and big this place was. It was really very big, too big for her to imagine or understand. In the world, there was actually such a large manor and such a luxurious interior! At thi
Martha was dumbfounded at Philip’s words Lucky? Why did it sound like a dog’s name? Philip was not going to let her sleep in the doghouse, right? For a moment, Martha panicked. She quickly grabbed Philip’s arm and said with a smile, “Son-in-law, don't be ridiculous. I’m your mother-in-law, after all. And I’m Wynn’s mother. How can you bear to let me stay in a doghouse? It doesn’t sound good if word of this spreads out.” Martha laughed and the wrinkles on her face squeezed together, looking very ugly. Hehe. Philip turned his head, pulled his arm away from Martha’s grip, and said coldly, “Do you think I'm joking with you? Do you think I brought you back to enjoy life?” Thump! Martha panicked and stammered, “Isn’t that so?” Philip shook his head, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He said to the servant, “Take her away.” Hearing that, the servant motioned to two bodyguards in black suits who dragged Martha away. This caused Martha to panic. She stru
