Wynn was shocked. She asked curiously, “You know?”Philip chuckled and said, “Yeah, I did it. I bought your company. You’re the chairwoman now, are you happy?”When Wynn heard this, she was taken aback. Then, she lifted her perfectly plucked eyebrows and said in a flirty tone, “Alright, thank you.”Wynn knew Philip liked to joke around. Her company was in a crisis and they needed 600 million in funds. How could Philip have helped her willy-nilly?“Never mind, I’m going back to work now. Did you visit Mila today?” Wynn asked.“Yeah, I’m on my way,” replied Philip. He was already in the hospital.He knew Wynn did not believe him.Whatever, then. He had more time to explain to her next time.Wynn grunted a reply and hung up after saying something.She sat in the chairperson’s office. She thought for a long while, but she still could not make sense of this.Was it really Philip?At this moment, she got a phone call from Joel. He said with a warm smile, “Wynnie, how’s your compan
’Is that Wynn Johnston? The previous beauty queen of the school has become such a golddigger.’‘Hehe, she has the appearance of an angel but a filthy heart. You’re calling her a beauty queen? How disgusting!’‘Yeah, women like Wynn will only lie to you all. She did a lot of disgusting things when she was in school. She loved stealing her best friend’s boyfriend. I think she has her eyes on a rich man now.’‘Poor Philip. Not only is he a spineless coward, but he’s being cuckolded now.’The mood of the group chat changed instantly. They were starting to criticize and denounce Wynn. They dug out all kinds of dark history and rumors about her.They were all made up by the women who were jealous of Wynn.At the same time, Philip gave Wynn a call. “Where are you?”Wynn and Joel had just arrived at Lover's Themed Restaurant. She purposely lowered her voice and said, “I’m in the office. I’m a bit busy. I’ll tell you everything when I get home.”After she said this, Wynn hung up the pho
When Joel saw that Philip was being stopped by the servers, he felt extremely pleased with himself.He was still a useless bum at the end of the day. Joel did not need to take action against him. Philip was not worth it.Alright, then. He would just let Wynn see how much of a worthless bum her husband was.The fat manager smiled flatteringly and said, “Mr. Harris, I’m sorry. I’ll kick this smelly beggar out now. I won’t disturb your meal.”After he said that, the fat manager shouted to the servers, “Why are you still standing here? Throw him out! If he dares to step foot inside, cripple him before throwing him out again. I’ll take responsibility if anything happens!”Joel looked at Philip who had been captured by the servers. He walked in front of him and scoffed. “Philip, do you know the difference between you and me now? I’m warning you to leave Wynn immediately. If not, I have a lot of ways to screw with you.”“Throw him out!”The fat manager knew his place. After Joel finish
Oh no!This entire street belonged to Tiger and that included this restaurant. Theo Zander’s properties were behind this shop as well.The fat manager was beyond terrified. In a blink of an eye, he turned into a turtle. He cowered in fear and stopped what he was doing.Theo scowled at the fat manager and yelled, “Get the f*ck over here!”The fat manager was trembling all over. He walked over to him.Slap, slap, slap!He slapped him four times continuously on the left and right sides of his cheeks. The fat manager started bleeding inside his mouth, and three of his teeth fell out!“You’re trying to throw Mr. Clarke out?”Tiger shouted and asked.“T-Tiger, no, it’s him… He’s disturbing the customers in the shop.”The fat manager looked at Philip and was puzzled. This man knew Tiger? What was going on?Plus, Tiger looked furious!“Shut up! Kneel!”Tiger flipped out and roared.Thud!The fat manager could not stand the fierce aura Tiger was radiating. He knelt almost immedia
After Wynn vomited in the restroom and washed her face, she walked out while feeling terrible. She forced out a smile and said, “It’s fine. I think the food I had for lunch is making me nauseous.”Philip nodded and grunted in acknowledgment. Then, he went into the room with her. Today, Mila was happy because her mommy and daddy were both here.Wynn was with Mila as she talked about her work with Philip. “Let’s treat Joel a meal to thank him someday.”“Why?” Philip asked in confusion.“He was the one who asked someone for help. He told me about it. Plus, there will be other pharmaceutical companies coming to work with us,” Wynn said. Even though she was reluctant, she did not have a choice. After all, he did help her.When Philip heard that, his face fell.Joel helped her?This idiot would really claim any credit he could. What did this have to do with him?“Do you really think he’s the one who helped you?” Philip asked.Wynn was taken aback. She said, “Who else could it be i
Martha could not believe her ears. Her face was glowing with excitement as she asked hurriedly, “What chairwoman? Wynnie, are you joking? Your company costs a few hundred million!”Wynn nodded and told them about what happened in the office. After she said that, Charles fell silent. Then, he said, “I understand now. Your company was met with a crisis, so they appointed you as the chairwoman. Even though 60% of the stock rights is very high, it means nothing. You have to think about this clearly. A lot of my friends told me that if anything happens to the company, you have to be responsible for it.”Wynn nodded and said, “I know, but it’s still an opportunity. If the company can get through this successfully, I’ll be the biggest shareholder. I’ll also have some solid power. I want to continue doing this,” Wynn said and looked at Philip. It was obvious she was asking for his opinion.Philip did not say anything. He was still mad about what happened in the morning.Martha did not care
“Madam Johnston, the chairman from Shine Pharmaceutical is here. He said he wants to talk to us about the collaboration.”Coincidentally, Mindy knocked on the door and entered the chairperson’s office. She walked in with a stack of documents in her hands. She was beaming.The company had been talking with the top pharmaceutical companies in the country for the past two days.Wynn was so amazing!She had such huge connections!Wynn did not hear what Chloe said, so she replied, “I’m sorry, Miss Sommerset. I have something to take care of. However, if you want to look for me, I’ll entertain you anytime.”Wynn hung up the phone with a cold expression on her face.Over here, Chloe was seething. How dare that b*tch hang up on her!No, she had to teach her a lesson.If not, she would not know the difference between them.Wynn pondered for a while and tidied herself up. Then, she followed Mindy into the meeting room.In the afternoon, Philip was feeling bored in the hospital. Soon a
“Philip, this is the last time I’m warning you to leave Wynn. If not, I’ll let you spend the rest of your life in a bed!”Joel walked in front of Philip and threatened him. His eyes were icy.Philip was suppressing the fire in his heart. He glared at Joel’s back. He would teach him a lesson sooner or later!The hall manager looked at Philip up and down. There was contempt in his eyes. He asked coldly, “Are you really here to eat?”Philip did not explain himself. He took out his phone and called Javier Morris. Then, the hall manager became as timid as a mouse after Javier talked to him through the phone. He led Philip to the elevator respectfully.“Mr. Clarke, I’m sorry. I was acting like a snob. Please don’t take this to heart.” The hall manager apologized profusely.Philip ignored him and took the elevator upstairs.After the door of the elevator was closed, the hall manager let out a heavy sigh of relief. He had almost gotten himself in trouble. That man even knew his boss.H
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
