When Philip saw Roger’s state in the pool at this moment, he exploded with bone-chilling killing intent and coldness! The kinship that made blood thicker than water allowed Philip to deeply feel the pain experienced by Roger. It was something no ordinary people could bear! Moreover, his father looked much older than before! There was a sense of desolation! Instantly, Philip’s pupils were bloodshot as he roared, “Who did this?!” Fulton stood aside, looking at his lord in the pool. His eyes were boiling with anger as he said, “You can’t deal with this right now.” “I’m asking you who did it!” Like a slumbering dragon that just woke up, Philip grabbed Fulton’s collar with his eyes ablaze and his face full of anger! Fulton looked at Philip and repeated, “This isn’t something you can deal with right now. The lord will wake up soon. He has something to tell you.” Philip’s body was shaking from anger! After a while, he released Fulton. With a pair of scarlet eyes, he stared
Philip said helplessly, “Can’t you even hold a teapot now?” With that said, he snatched the teacup from Roger's hand, poured a cup of tea, and stuffed it into Roger's hand. Roger looked at this scene and said with a smile, “I'd rather never hold this teapot forever.” Philip rolled his eyes at him and asked sullenly, “Who caused the wounds on your body? The Nonagon, the Alliance, or the Gentleman Court? If you can’t take this lying down, tell me and I’ll take revenge for you.” Roger laughed and looked at Fulton, who was standing on one side. He said, “Look, my son still knows how to care for me.” Fulton tilted his head slightly and said nothing. Philip also looked at the two of them and said a little anxiously, “You don't want to tell me who did this?” Roger shook his head and said, “It's not time yet. You're not their opponent. This time, it's enough that you’ve returned to the island safely.” Philip got angry. He stood up abruptly, put his hands in his trouser pockets,
Wynn’s family background? His father knew about Wynn’s family background? Philip turned around, his face sullen. He stared at Roger and asked, “Do you know Wynn’s background?” Roger nodded, coughed lightly, and said, “I knew about it long ago. During the Lovelace family incident back then, I was at fault, so I want to make it up to her.” “Make amends?” Philip interrupted Roger with a sneer and said, “The Lovelace family is just another victim of those in power like you! When you convicted the Lovelace family, why did you sacrifice the only faction that was on the path of righteousness? When big shots like you do things, don't you think about the consequences? Don't you confirm the process and results of your actions?” The more Philip spoke, the louder his voice became. Finally, it almost turned into a roar of questioning. The expression on Roger’s face was complicated as he looked at the steaming cup of tea in front. After a while, he sighed and said, “There are very comp
That night, Philip led 13 members of the Shadow Guards to a famous bar in Glenford, the Buckingham Palace. Buckingham Palace Bar. Located in the most central and prosperous area of Glenford, this was the trendiest entertainment venue. Buckingham Palace was built in the shape of a white castle and decorated with opulence. It had a consumption standard that boasted to be the best in Glenford! Generally, only the rich and the dandy could come here to have fun. It was also Philip’s first time here. He looked at 17 next to him, who was wearing a red halter-neck dress and holding his arm. He asked, “Are you sure this is the place?” 17 nodded with a wink and said seductively, “Handsome, it’s here.” She looked very sexy tonight with a rose tattoo on her exposed back and her shoulder-length hair. It added to a man’s desire to conquer her. When she and Philip appeared at the entrance of Buckingham Palace, they drew many sideways glances. Philip had booked the largest private ro
The middle-aged woman was the bar’s small boss, and the sultry girls standing behind her were all gold diggers. Their usual work was to accompany the guests to drink. If the guests spent money, they could then go out to have fun. If a large private room only ordered drinks without girls, it was the same as a dog in a manger. Thus, the young girls could not hold back their mouths either. “Tsk, how dare they come here to have fun if they don’t have the money? Rubbish.” “Do you know what kind of place this is?” “This is not a country pub, hillbilly!” Philip was not the only person in the room. Brian and the other 12 Shadow Guards were there too! These people were extremely loyal. For this middle-aged woman to curse Philip in front of them, she was simply looking for death! All 12 of them stood up with a whoosh, each glaring angrily at the middle-aged woman. 17 was already touching the butterfly knife strapped to the side of her waist, staring at the middle-aged wo
Philip turned around and said to Carla, “Your name is Carla, right? Don't be so aggressive. We’re here to have fun and drink today, not to cause trouble. But if I understand correctly, we won't be allowed to drink here if we don’t ask for company, right?” Carla put her hands around her chest and said smugly, “That’s right! We’re a high-end bar here, and we don’t just accept anyone. If you don’t ask for company, you can go somewhere else to drink. It's none of our business.” Philip smiled and said, “That won’t do. I deliberately picked the best bar today and brought my buddies here to relax and unwind. The environment here is good, so we won't switch places. I'll take all the people you have here, but I do wonder what they can do.” The woman was startled and said doubtfully, “What did you say? You want all of them? Are you kidding? Do you have money?” Philip smiled faintly. “Suitcase.” A member next to him took a suitcase and handed it to Philip. Philip took the case and ope
Carla used to be an escort when she was young, but now that she was older, no guests would accept her. She could only be a leader behind the scenes. However, today, the young master in front was so elegant and tasteful to order her! Philip nodded and said, “Yes, let’s have fun together.” Carla was overjoyed and said, “Okay, thank you for giving me a chance! Just you wait. Although I’m old, my skills are not inferior to young people!” The group of women entered the room and Philip closed the door behind them. The 12 male Shadow Guards looked embarrassed and sat motionless on the sofa. Brian asked in puzzlement, “Young Master, with our strength, why should we be afraid of them?” Philip smiled mysteriously, shook his head, and said, “I'm not afraid. You'll know in a while.” The group of women stood in a row. Carla asked the guards who they wanted to choose but no one in the room said anything. Philip smiled and said, “They’re very conservative, so don’t make things diffi
“Oh, Mister, I’ll do it. It’s just push-ups, right? I can do it.” With that said, a girl in the crowd immediately crouched on the floor and started doing push-ups. As a result, she could not take it after doing it twice. While panting for breath and with a flushed face, she said, “Oh, I can’t stand it any longer. Mister, I really can’t.” As she said that, she stood up and looked at the money on the table. She reached for it and said with a smile, “Mister, but I still did it, so this money…” Philip raised his eyebrows. His cold eyes stared at the woman and he directly drew the butterfly knife from 17’s waist. Clang! He raised his hand and the knife fell! The butterfly knife passed between the woman's slender and white fingers, piercing through the stack of banknotes. It pierced into the coffee table frighteningly! “Ah!” In an instant, the woman was so scared that she withdrew her hand while shouting and screaming. Her face was full of horror. “I said a hundred push-u
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
