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
Sure enough, the pill was nothing special. Apart from appearing quite tasty, the pill had no other effect. It was considered a useless item. “Humans are quite good at making pills. It’d be great if I had that ability too,” Akash said eagerly. He had studied this topic with others before, but they concluded that no other race had the talent to make pills apart from humans. Philip continued chatting with Akash, all the time wondering who he was. He could easily tell whether the other person's face was real or fake. This person did not disguise himself. His face was real. “Philip, I sense something wrong,” Lyle muttered under his breath. He sensed a strange vibe. A strong fishy smell was coming from a distance. Philip immediately recognized the source of the fishy smell. Who else could it be but the ugly elves? Abele was heading to the city with her troops. They knew that attacking these people was a matter of life and death. “We need to watch out. Don’t give them a chance
At this time, Akash ran over as if he were shocked to hear that sound. “Did you hear a deafening sound just now? I felt uncomfortable all over after that as if something was staring at me!” Akash said in a panic. He was now very jittery and afraid of everything. “Don’t worry, it’s probably an explosion somewhere,” Philip said. Akash was startled as if he could not understand Philip’s meaning. “Explosion? Is it a demon? That’d be very bad!” Akash looked around anxiously, feeling nothing else but panic. “Anyway, this is strange. No one knows what’s happening, so let’s just take it one step at a time. If a demon appears, we have no choice but to face it.” Philip waved his hand, not interested in this topic. They would have to face it, come hell or high water. Akash nodded and sat drinking his cup of tea with a bad premonition lingering in his heart. “Let’s hope you’re right.” Philip sat down and felt that something was wrong with Akash’s reaction. He probably knew something
The captured elves would suffer various hardships and become the humans' pitiful plaything. To prevent it from happening again, Akash forbade his people from stepping into the outside world. Therefore, it was ironic for him to summon his people here. “Find a room and have a good rest while you wait for your people to arrive.” Philip pointed to one of the empty rooms. Akash was exhausted after a long journey. Even though he had drunk a pot of tea, his mental state was not very good. He would collapse very soon without a good rest. Akash nodded. He did not refuse Philip's kindness because he knew he could not hold on much longer. He felt very unhappy at the thought of the upcoming battle.… At this time, the place responsible for imprisoning humans was getting restless as if the barriers were weakening. “Comrades, keep it up. I can feel the barriers weakening. We can leave soon!” A man shouted, and his words motivated everyone. Everyone was excited and worked harder to bre
“That’s great. I knew that our sacred tree would never lie to me. Only you’d dare to help me in this situation.” Akash was moved to tears by Philip’s words. He never dreamed that Philip was willing to help him. “I’ll try to contact the other elf warriors and see if I can summon them. Our combat effectiveness will improve significantly with their help.” Akash went to a corner to contact the elf warriors using a special method. They would sense it if they were still alive. However, he forgot an important thing. Abele was once a member of the family and knew about it too. She could feel the call the same as other warriors. As Akash summoned the warriors, Abele smiled wickedly. She did not expect Akash to summon his people so soon. “This took no effort at all. I was thinking if I should use my bloodline to search for his trace, but he turned up right at my doorstep. How convenient.” Abele found Akash’s location but was puzzled by his choice. “Is he crazy? Why is he in the h
“I have a natural aversion toward demons, so I felt very uncomfortable when I saw Abele, but everyone was in a hurry to leave at that time, so I didn't say anything. Abele probably colluded with the demons to get rid of Akash and his people, so Akash wants to seek help from us.” Everyone nodded at Katie’s analysis and thought she had a point. “Anyway, we’ll find out after a short wait. I’m sure he’ll get here very soon. We can figure out the details if he needs our help.” Philip distributed the precious elf water while calmly waiting for Akash’s arrival. He knew that he owed the elves a favor. Philip was not guilty about taking Akash’s elf water, but he felt embarrassed about Rabbit tricking the elf tree away from the elves. With the elf tree, Philip was not short of elf water. With the help of his pills, the elf tree would recover soon, so the yield would be much higher. Philip felt conflicted at the thought of Akash’s earnest behavior and decided to help if he could after
As long as Abele had full control over the elf tree, others would have no choice but to believe her identity no matter how ugly or deformed she looked. Now that the elf tree was missing, however, they could not find the elves’ treasure even if they turned the place upside down. “It seems that we can’t spare those people no matter what. You have to do me a favor. We have to find Akash and get the elf tree or all our efforts will be in vain.” Abele gritted her teeth and finally decided to kill Akash.… Meanwhile, Akash had escaped and knew that a great calamity had befallen his family. It was a total disaster. “Luckily, I have the pills from Philip, or I wouldn’t have been able to escape that woman’s clutches.” Akash felt a lingering fear. Although a pill had been taken from him, he felt better now. At least he still had many pills from Philip. “I have no choice but to find Philip next. If he’s unwilling to help me, I’ll have to beg someone else.” Thinking of this, Akash
Akash had been injured by the black energy emitted by Abele. He would be in trouble if he did not heal himself. Seeing this scene, Abele rushed over and snatched the pill from Akash’s hand. Abele had been waiting to get hold of one. “Give it to me.” Abele moved very fast after being possessed by the demon. Akash did not have time to take the pill before Abele snatched it from him. Seeing this scene, Akash looked around for his warriors, but everyone had left. Akash felt relieved. As long as his warriors had fled to safety, he had nothing to worry about. Seeing that Abele was admiring the pill, Akash quickly ran away. It was the best opportunity for him to run. He would have a future as long as he ran. He had to survive before he could make a comeback. Where there was a will, there was a way. Akash was quite good at running and soon vanished from everyone’s sight. Abele scoffed at Akash’s disappearance. Although she did not want to let him go, there was no point in cha
“I think those are pills made by humans. I wonder where he found such powerful pills. Get them for me. I’m very interested in studying them.” At this moment, a voice rang in Abele’s ear, most likely the person behind the scenes. Abele rolled her eyes. Who would not be interested in such a good thing? Everyone wanted to get one but it depended on individual ability. “According to my understanding over the years, even the best potions can't produce such a strong healing effect, not even the potions made by Merlin. These pills are a force to be reckoned with, and I want to get them now. Do something about it. Don’t let me down,” the voice forced Abele to solve the problem. “You know who has the pills. He’s very powerful, and I’m no match for him at all unless you help me.” Abele gritted her teeth and finally suggested. She knew that Philip was a human, so it had to be him. However, Philip had left, and no one knew where he went. In that case, she could only start with Akash.
They had suffered badly enough over the years, so Abele just wanted to resist. Akash had to die at all costs. Akash watched in sorrow as his warriors fought to their deaths. He wondered where Abele found her reinforcements, but that was not important now. His people were about to surrender, so that question was meaningless now. “Run!” A warrior saw Akash standing in a daze and was filled with panic. He rushed through the attacks and urged Akash to flee. “As long as you’re still alive, the elves will have a chance to make a comeback. No matter what, we can't let the enemies have their way. You have to make a comeback and show them how powerful we are!” The warrior was stabbed several times, but his face was full of determination as if he would never give in to these people. Tears welled up in Akash's eyes. He never thought that his people would say such sorrowful words one day. “I’ll die if you don’t leave now.” The warrior had no choice but to use his death to threaten
