Philip came running from a distance and rushed into the crowd. He grabbed hold of Lynn and asked in concern, “Lynn, are you alright?” Lynn wept bitterly and threw herself into Philip’s arms, crying, “Philip, they… They want me to accompany them to sing and dance. They said if I don’t sleep with them, I have to pay 20 million!” Boohoo! Lynn sobbed piteously. Philip comforted her and said, “Okay, okay. Just leave everything to me. It’s going to be fine.” Lynn rubbed her teary red eyes and asked cautiously, “Really? It’s 20 million. Philip, do you have so much money?” Philip shrugged, turned toward the few arrogant young men, and said, “Isn’t it just 20 million? Why are you pulling her into the car?” The leading guy in the white shirt chuckled. He scrutinized Philip from top to bottom before pointing at his nose. “F*ck! Where did a beggar like you come from? Are you trying to stick your nose in here?” “What the hell? Open your blind eyes and see clearly. This is the Ferrar
“I’m telling you, this car is not mine, but you don’t believe me. Now, not only do you want me to pay 20 million, but you also want me to pay over one million for the car repair fees,” Philip put out his hands and said helplessly.It was time to teach his cousin-in-law a lesson. If not, she would not remember her place.She was so arrogant and bossy. How would she survive when she stepped foot into society?“Ah!”Lynn was stunned. She stomped her feet in frustration. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What should I do? It’s more than 20 million! Sob, sob, sob…”Lynn was horrified. She squatted down on the street and started crying without caring about her image.Philip waited for her while she cried and sighed. Then, he was about to walk over and negotiate with the few youngsters.Lynn stood up suddenly and ran. While she was running, she shouted, “It’s his car! Go ask for money from him!”Everyone was completely shocked.A second later, Lynn had vanished from their sight.Damn
Martha started to panic. She rubbed her eyes furiously. She wanted to go and take a closer look.Her eyesight was not that good, so she was scared that she might just be seeing things.“Hey, why are you running around on your own? You can’t see this! Get out now!”Suddenly, a tall and slender maid stormed in and stood in front of Martha. She brought her out and shut the door of the room.This was the master bedroom. How could she barge in on her own?This woman was so full of herself. How dare she wander around on her own.She told Martha she could only visit the first floor. The second floor was forbidden!Martha did not have the chance to give the wedding photo another glance before she was pushed out. She was being kept on tenterhooks.“I’m sorry, I was lost.” Martha explained timidly.The maid peered at her coldly and mumbled, “Go downstairs now. Your friends are waiting for you downstairs.”Martha could not do anything more, so she went downstairs. She ran into Barb and
“Mom, I really…”“Enough! Shut up, why are you still lying?”Martha was mad. This useless guy was still lying about this? “Right, come back for a while. There’s going to be a guest in the house. Come back and act as the supporting role.”After she said that, Martha hung up the phone. She slammed the phone down on the coffee table with her cheeks puffed in anger.“What’s wrong? Did Philip make you upset again?” Charles asked after noticing the changes in Martha’s expression.“That wretched bum is still lying to me. He said he bought a house at Longford Park. You have no idea, the mansions over there cost at least 35 million! Is he crazy? How can he say something like this?”Martha gritted her teeth in anger.Charles shook his head helplessly. He sighed and asked all of a sudden, “Will you move there if he has really bought a house at Longford Park?”Martha was taken aback. She frowned and pointed at the door after getting up. She shouted, “He’s just a worthless piece of trash. H
At first glance, one would think that they were newlyweds who had not seen each other for a long time.Wynn was shocked. She patted Joel gently and said, “Alright, Joel.”After that, the two of them separated. Joel was still looking at Wynn amorously.Wynn was blushing. She looked like a submissive little woman.Philip got even more angered when he saw this. What the hell was that?His wife was acting like a submissive little woman in front of another man?“Philip, you’re here too?”Wynn was startled when she saw Philip standing in the kitchen. She kept a distance from Joel and lowered her head. She was embarrassed.Oh no!What should she do now? Was Philip mad at her for being like this?Oh no!Wynn was so ashamed right now.Joel was taken aback. Eventually, he understood that Philip was not a male housekeeper. He asked, “Wynnie, who is he?”Wynn placed a strand of her hair behind her ears and walked toward Philip. She smiled and introduced, “Joel, this is my husband, Phi
Philip frowned and looked at Wynn. He asked, “Why didn’t you tell me your company is in trouble?”Wynn was feeling frustrated today too. She was especially mad at Philip’s attitude toward her just now. She said coldly, “You can’t do anything about it anyway.”Philip frowned. He knew Wynn was mad at him.The two of them continued to stand like this, and the icy vibe started to spread across the room. No one wanted to give in.“Don’t worry, I’ll help you,” Philip pondered for a while and said after surrendering.After all, she was his wife.However, when he said that, Martha jeered while guffawing. “Can’t you just shut up? Why are you still lying? Can you even help Wynn with the problem in her company? Who do you think you are?”Joel shook his head and smiled helplessly. He finally understood what kind of man Wynn’s husband was.He was a liar, and Aunt Martha did not like him.How did this piece of trash marry Wynn?At that moment, Joel swore that he would steal Wynn away from
The living room plunged into silence.Joel was the first to burst out laughing. He shook his head helplessly. He was looking down on Wynn’s husband even more now.How hilarious!This good-for-nothing had bought a company for ten million bucks?If that was the case, with Aunt Martha’s snobby attitude and feisty temper, she would be treating him like he was her own son!Martha was taken aback. Her face fell immediately. She picked up a book on the table and threw it at him. She pointed at the door and yelled, “Get out! You shameful thing! You never do anything properly and only know how to lie! Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? I feel ashamed for you even if you’re not.”Philip did not want to explain anymore. His mother-in-law would never believe him.Martha pulled Joel out the door and insisted he took Philip to the interview.With no choice, the four of them sat in Joel’s Porsche and drove to Hodgson Pharmaceutical.“Joel, your car must be pretty expensive, right?”Martha got
This young man in the photo was the one who caused the bankruptcy of Hutten Pharmaceutical Factory and the downfall of the Logans.When Vernon found out about the truth, he was beyond shocked!He must get to know this powerful person.If he could destroy one pharmaceutical factory, he could destroy another.Vernon was scared of his future.“Where is he?”“I think Mr. Harris brought them to the human resources department.”“Hurry, come with me!” Vernon knew the importance of this.The two of them ran to the human resources department.Back in the office of the HR manager.“Boris, help me out. This is my Aunt Martha’s son-in-law. He wants to see if there are any vacancies in our company. Please arrange something for him.”Joel sat on the sofa with a cup of tea. A man with a pointy face and puffed cheeks was standing in front of him respectfully.He was the manager of the human resources department, Boris Bauer.Boris respected Joel a lot. The company spent a lot of money to
Seeing the woman’s horror, Philip scratched his head awkwardly. He did not expect that her reaction would be so intense. “Don't worry, I'm not a good person.” After saying that, Philip sat down nonchalantly as if he was not worried about this powerful woman. Seeing Philip’s disregard for her, the woman was so angry that she could barely speak.“As you can see, I’m one of those humans,” Philip introduced himself. Philip had nothing to hide. His identity was no secret. “So, you’re one of those disgusting humans. You look quite strong. Since you found me, I’ll accept my fate. Just kill me if you want. There’s no need to insult me any further.” This woman was quite interesting. She jerked her chin up as if she was ready to let Philip kill her. Philip sighed at her reaction. Why was someone so eager to die? “I don’t want to kill you. I’m just curious about you. I just arrived at Deadly Arena recently,” Philip said to the other party sincerely. He was very curious about the
“You’re right, someone is controlling these beasts behind the scenes. Although I don’t know if the culprit is a powerful beast or a guild, they're not to be trifled with.” Philip did not hide this information but asked his men to take action. Since they were already here, they had to ensure their safety. No one would be exempted if anything happened. “You can join in the fight, but don’t try too hard. Just kill a few beasts and wait until I get to the bottom of this,” Philip said to his people. He was afraid that his men would work too hard but end up with nothing. Everyone nodded solemnly at Philip’s instructions. They quickly joined the battlefield and casually swung their weapons around, killing the arrogant beasts. Due to their strength, they easily crushed the beasts without much effort. As the fight reached its peak, Philip observed the source of the beast stampede. “Do you see that? The beasts are coming from that direction, and they’re clearly well-organized and d
Philip noticed the change and frowned at the mysterious man, whose expression changed drastically. “This is bad. I’ve never heard this alarm before.” After saying this, he invited Philip to go with him to Deadly Arena to find out what happened. They arrived at Deadly Arena and saw everyone staring ahead nervously as if waiting for someone to speak. Philip’s guild members noticed his return and approached him nervously. Aslan ran up to Philip worriedly. “Philip, I asked around and found something wrong. Deadly Arena is a dangerous place because it’s situated next to the beast forest. This situation has happened from time to time in the past, but no one was bothered. They’d even organize teams to hunt the beasts and Deadly Arena would provide rewards for this.” Philip roughly understood the situation from Aslan’s explanation. Since Deadly Arena had been managing this place for so long, they had taken responsibility for the safety issue. Once the beasts appeared, they would ensu
Argent thought he had come up with a good plan to set Philip up, but he was the fool who was kept in the dark in the end. Philip smiled at Argent’s angry departure and invited the mysterious man to his room. Although Philip chatted with him earlier, he did not know much about him. Philip could tell that the man had concealed his true appearance. Philip was curious to see what would happen. The mysterious man noticed Philip’s anticipation but simply stared at him in silence. Philip wanted to know his identity and purpose for coming here. “I really think highly of you. It’d be best if you could join me.” He knew that Philip would not give in so easily, so his rationality told him to give up. “It’s impossible for me to join you, but I’m curious about your situation. I believe you have a grudge against that guy or you wouldn’t resent him so much.” Philip smiled at the guy. He knew that the grudge between the two was very deep. The mysterious man was surprised that Philip
In Argent’s opinion, Philip was a prideful person and would never accept this proposal. “Of course, you have the right to refuse. I just want to see what you think.” The mysterious man smiled at Philip brightly as if he did not mind Philip’s rejection.Seeing the mysterious man’s attitude, Argent was afraid that his plan would fail. Philip was not a fool. He could tell at a glance that the two people in front of him were not on the same side. Everyone had their own agendas. “In that case, I have to refuse. I’m sorry, but I’m used to leading a carefree life. Besides, I have my own force, so I won’t join other teams.” A trace of regret flashed in the other party's eyes. He was surprised to hear that Philip was capable enough to form a team of his own. “I’m surprised that you’re so strong at such a young age. In that case, I won’t make things difficult for you. Maybe we can become friends instead.” The mysterious man quickly made small talk with Philip. He clearly had some idea
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
