Eric had not expected Wynn’s sudden slap.The man with braids was stunned. After coming back to his senses, he yelled, “F*ck! You b*tch! How dare you hit me! Do you want to die?”Braids was furious! He had never been slapped by a woman in public before.Slap!He lifted his hand and returned Wynn a slap.The slap landed on Wynn’s face. Consequently, her right cheek instantly became swollen and started to turn red.“B*tch! How dare you slap my f*cking face!”Braids was fuming. He glared at Wynn angrily and then grabbed her arm.“Let go of me! If not, I’ll call the cops!”Wynn struggled and screamed. However, it was to no avail.The seven to eight people around her were all Eric’s friends. However, at the moment, they were just spectators. They only watched on coldly as the scene unfolded.They were well aware that Eric wanted to teach that woman a lesson.“Scream more! Struggle more! You little b*tch, slap me again, I dare you! If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I’ll just s
Eric had gotten the pill overseas. No woman could stay conscious under its effects.Inside the car, four men stared at Wynn who had just started to feel the effects of the pill. She looked very alluring as she bit her lip and pressed down on her skirt.The car sped to a hotel.The few of them got out of the car and carried Wynn into a room.At the same time, Philip had been trying to call Wynn frantically. However, no one ever answered her phone. In the end, her phone was switched off.Oh no, something terrible must have happened!That was Philip’s first instinct.Hence, he called Mindy immediately. “Mindy, where did Wynn do? Why isn’t she picking up her phone?”Mindy was in the office discussing what to eat with her colleagues. She replied, “VP Johnston left 20 minutes ago. I think she went to the plaza. Oh right, she went to pick up her cousin, Eric.”Eric?Philip was beginning to feel more and more anxious. He hung up the phone and called Theo. “Tell me where Eric Yates is
Philip was triggered by what he saw. His eyes went red and he was livid!Wynn’s hands were being tied to the frame of the bed, and she was moaning in discomfort. Additionally, there was a faint handprint on her cheek, and there was blood on the corner of her lips.Philip was fuming. He ran over and kicked Braids in the stomach with all his might.Bam!Braids flew backward after being kicked by Philip, and the former crashed into the nightstand. It has to be said that Braids’ head was the one that hit the nightstand. Consequently, his head started bleeding, and he howled in pain.The other three men were shocked upon seeing Philip’s arrival. However, they quickly came back to their senses and took out bats and knives from under the bed.They had planned for him to come!It was a trap. A trap for Philip to fall into!Wynn was tied to the bed; she had bit her lip until it had started bleeding. Her eyes were filled with tears as she tried her best to stay conscious. Wynn watched as
Eric was enjoying himself at the bar.He was extremely pleased with himself at the moment as he finally managed to get back at that little b*tch, Wynn Johnston.Not to mention, Philip had to be very beaten up by now.Eric took out his phone and called Braids. However, no one picked up.He smirked shamelessly and muttered, “I guess it’s going well. I wasn’t expecting Wynn to be such a little wh*re. It’s been so long and she still isn’t done yet.”As Eric thought about it, he proceeded to flirt with the pretty lady next to him.However, at this moment.Bam!The door of the private room was kicked open violently.Four muscular men in suits barged in.Tiger glared coldly at Eric who was sitting on the sofa and currently being overwhelmed with lust. Tiger boomed, “Eric!”Eric turned his head and saw that someone had barged in. He was fuming as he got up, pointed at Tiger, and shouted, “Who the f*ck are you? F*ck off!”In his family, Eric was the king. Thus, he was used to being
The Maybach headed directly to the stadium. At the moment, the outside of the stadium was crawling with henchmen in black suits and dark sunglasses. They were each standing solemnly with their hands behind their backs. When the car pulled over at the entrance, one of the henchmen immediately stepped forward, opened the door of the car, and greeted respectfully, “Mr. Clarke.” About twenty to thirty henchmen in the area followed that person’s cue as they each bowed down and shouted respectfully, “Mr. Clarke!” The volume of their voices was staggering! Philip got out of the car, his cold demeanor and anger seemed to be suppressed in his eyes. With quick steps, he made his way toward the arena. Theo followed closely from behind, ready to deal with the aftermath. As soon as Philip entered the stadium, he heard Eric shouting hysterically. “Let go of me! My name is Eric Yates. I belong to the Yates’ family! If you don’t release me at once, my grandfather won’t let you off! “
Eric had never imagined that a piece of trash like Philip would lash out at him like that! He was simply unscrupulous! Also, why was Theo standing next to him so respectfully? All the events that had happened almost caused Eric to suffer a mental breakdown. Why? Was he not a good-for-nothing! Philip thought for a moment before replying calmly, “I’m someone you can’t afford to offend. Remember this, the Yates family is nothing more than an ant in my eyes. Don’t try to challenge me, otherwise, I won’t think twice about removing the Yates from the face of this earth.” Philip had the urge to remove the Yates that day, but he recalled the words Wynn had said to him. Do not cause trouble. Therefore, Philip held back and only taught Eric a lesson. If Eric remained unrepentant after this, then, there would be no longer any reason for the Yates family to exist. Eric lied on the ground as he sneered and said, “Philip Clarke, it seems that I’ve underestimated you. You’ve bee
With her arms crossed, Wynn raised her chin, looked straight at Philip, and dialed Eric’s number. The fact was, even if Philip really had taught Eric a lesson, Wynn would not say anything. That was because Eric really had gone too far this time. If the Yates pursued the matter, Wynn would definitely take Philip’s side. Beep, beep, beep… A long wait ensued. In the end, the call went unanswered. After a while, Wynn gave up trying and said to Philip dubiously, “Okay, I’ll believe you for once.” Philip grinned, touched her cheek that was still slightly red and swollen, and asked, “Is it still painful?” Wynn shook her head shyly and said, “It has been treated. I’m fine.” The two stared into each other’s eyes. “Damn it, I almost forgot!” Philip slapped his forehead out of the blue and hurried out. “Wynn, I’ll pick you up later.” Wynn was puzzled, totally unaware of what Philip was up to. Oh, right. Philip had asked her the day before if she was free today. That wa
Everyone gathered around the entrance and watched on curiously. Additionally, many people took out their phones and started to record videos to upload onto TikTok and other social media platforms. “Damn! Who is this rich person, spending so much money? So many luxury cars, is the person proposing?” “No idea. This is too glamorous for words. I’m so envious!” “It would be nice if they were here to pick me up. This is too romantic, and the plot is too surreal. It’s exactly like something that would appear in a K-drama.” Many female nurses crowded around the entrance. They were each staring at the scene in envy. At this time, Wynn walked out from behind the crowd with Mila in her arms. She had received a call that asked her to bring Mila to the hospital’s entrance. When Wynn arrived at the door, the four chauffeurs standing next to the Mercedes-Benz vehicles bowed in unison and stretched out their hands in a gentlemanly fashion. “Miss Johnston, please get in the car.” In
Most people would be freaked out at the sight of his face. He took out a photo from his pocket and held it in his hand angrily. “Argent, you've enjoyed your life long enough. It’s time to get what you deserve.” The mysterious man smiled cruelly with obvious hatred for Argent. This whole incident had nothing to do with Philip at all. Philip was simply a pitiful pawn in these people’s hands. Philip never dreamed that someone would target him for no reason. He just wanted to improve his strength. He could not care less about what other people thought of him.… Time passed quickly. The next day, Philip did not expect these people to come after him so soon. He just wanted to have a good rest and find a suitable place to settle down, but these people were as annoying as pesky flies. “Philip, get out here at once. I want to see how strong you are. How dare you show off in front of me?” Argent yelled at Philip’s door in disdain. His right hand was bandaged tightly as if he was still
The mysterious man forced himself to contain his anger and smile at Argent. Argent knew that he had to stop asking for more. At this point, what was the most important? “I can give you Philip’s address, and we can deal with him tomorrow morning. If you teach him a good lesson, I’m sure he’ll listen to you,” Argent said smugly. His plan was simple. He wanted to use the other party to deal with Philip. Philip had messed with him earlier and crippled his right hand. He would have died if he had not stopped the bleeding in time. Therefore, the grudge between him and Philip was so deep that he could not wait to rip Philip into pieces. Argent and the mysterious man who refused to reveal his name quickly came up with a plan. “In that case, I’ll see you again tomorrow morning. I hope you won't let me down.” After saying this, the mysterious man zoomed into the distance and soon disappeared. Seeing the other party’s hasty retreat, Argent was full of disdain. “Hehe, you think too hig
“Wow, you guys are so generous to send me such a precious gift this time. Tell me more about the deal you want to discuss with me. If it’s up to my expectations, I can consider it.” Argent's mood changed for the better. He smiled brightly and did not consider other possibilities. He seemed to have forgotten the conflict and resentment he had toward Philip. “We know that a young heroic man has appeared in Deadly Arena this time. We’re very interested in him and have decided to recruit him. I heard that you fought him before. I wonder if he's as powerful as I imagined.” The other party did not introduce himself but looked at Argent with a smile. Argent scowled. He thought that this matter was over, but this guy brought it up again. He was obviously trying to belittle him. “Hehe, let’s forget it. I don’t have much of an opinion about Philip. He’s just an average person, nothing worth mentioning.” Argent was afraid of exposing his shame, so he tried to tarnish Philip’s reputati
After confirming that he could leave safely, Argent ran away quickly, unwilling to stay a second longer. Philip was so terrifying that he wanted to keep his distance from him. Argent simply wanted to rob Philip of his treasures, but he was seriously injured instead. He could not accept it. Argent quickly ran back home. He had settled down with his family after such a long time. Given his strength, no one refused his requests. Argent’s family members simply wanted to follow someone strong, so they did not mind doing anything. In the meantime, an uninvited guest appeared at Argent’s home. He did not make an appointment with Argent in advance, so Argent did not know him. When Argent returned home in a mess, they bumped into each other. “I’m surprised to see the head of the family looking so miserable. I’m here at the right time.” The man stared at Argent mockingly as if he was enjoying the show. Argent was annoyed by his reaction, angry that an outsider had seen him in his most mi
Argent felt fear grip him. Philip’s earlier action was terrifying, as if he could grab his soul with a wave of his hand. Philip laughed at Argent’s hasty retreat, amused by his cowardice. “I just wanted to scare you. There's no need to dodge so quickly,” he said with a chuckle. Argent was furious by Philip’s shameless prank. Although he was angry, Argent had to give up his absurd plan when he thought of Philip's strength. Philip was not to be trifled with. He had to watch out. Before he could slip away and mess with Philip another day, Philip grabbed his right hand abruptly, leaving him no time to react. Argent’s right hand lost all sensation as if it had been crippled. He looked down at his right hand in a panic and was shocked to find that his right arm had vanished. “What the hell is going on? How could you do this to me?” He was shocked that Philip could break his defense so easily and cripple him. He was a force to be reckoned with, and not everyone could go against hi
Argent was nothing more than average, but he was so full of himself. Philip felt that he might be inferior to the other party in that aspect. “All the rewards are in my hands. If you really want them, you can try to defeat me and take them away. Otherwise, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to get them with your strength.” Philip smiled at him. Although this guy was quite strong, he was no match for Philip. “I entered the top 100 of the advanced list when I was at your age. You’re nothing to me. Stop showing off in front of me.” A trace of disdain flashed across Argent’s face. He was clearly looking down on Philip. Philip nodded. This old man was very full of himself. His strength was undeniable, but it was nothing compared to Philip’s. “I heard that you don’t belong to a guild. Don't you feel ashamed? It’s a pity that no one is willing to take you in.” Philip smiled brightly. He said this on purpose to snub Argent. Argent was furious to hear Philip mocking him for this. He
After hearing Philip’s remarks, the guy trembled in anger. His name was Argent, nicknamed Silver Snake. He first came into contact with a practice technique when he was a teenager. As he did not know anything, he simply practiced the technique on his own. Unexpectedly, there was a problem with this technique. His height remained what it was in his teens, but his appearance became old. At first, he thought that he would always look like a teenager, but his appearance gradually became old and terrifying. No matter where he went after that, people would treat him as an old man even though he was only in his early 40s. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for himself, and his hatred for Philip deepened. Not only did his appearance change, but his practice level also slowly dropped to rock bottom. His mind gradually became more and more twisted because of this. Then, he stumbled into a cave and received a heritage by chance. The heritage was evil, but it helped him improve his practice
Philip nodded at the other party’s grace. “Not bad, that young man is quite decent.” Even though the other party was a middle-aged man, Philip called him a young man. Philip knew that someone else would approach him very soon. He could use this opportunity to find out more about the force behind the other party. He quickly reserved the inn and wandered around the streets. He wanted to see how many people were following him. Everyone had their own agenda and was up to no good. Philip soon saw a sneaky old man who did not seem to pose any threat. The old man looked at Philip thoughtfully with a hint of ridicule, which gave Philip an unpleasant feeling. “You should know the purpose of my visit. Do I need to elaborate?” the old man cut to the chase. Philip shook his head helplessly at the old man’s arrogance. The old man in front of him was quite powerful or he would not have been so arrogant. He thought he could deal with Philip easily with his strength. “You’re obviousl
Philip was surprised to hear that. “So, my performance was so outstanding that they can't wait to get rid of me.” Philip glanced at Duncan. Since he was not here for his money, there was no problem. Besides, he did not seem like a bad guy. “I have a job to do. I have to fulfill my responsibilities and obligations, so I need to report the situation truthfully.” Duncan knew he could not deal with Philip, so he had to find another way to negotiate with him. “If you promise not to take part in another match, I can consider letting you go for the time being. That way, I can go back and report my findings too.” He did not mention his men whom Philip took down as if they were not important at all. “Of course, I can’t agree to that. This isn’t as simple as you think. The people behind Deadly Arena won’t let me off so easily. Don’t worry about that,” Philip said with a smile. Since he knew that Duncan was from Deadly Arena, there was nothing more to say. Philip knew that Lyle
