The doctor removed his hand and smiled at Wynn benevolently. “Congratulations, you’re pregnant.”Pregnant!Wynn was pregnant!Wynn and Philip looked at each other. Wynn started to cry tears of joy as she hugged Philip. She said, “Philip, we have another baby. You’re going to be a father again!”Philip was stunned. Nonetheless, he came back to his senses and lovingly returned Wynn’s hug. He smiled, “We're going to have another child. Mila has either a brother or a sister now!”“Thank you so much, doctor.”Philip let go of Wynn and grabbed the doctor’s hands. There was a huge smile on Philip’s face as he thanked the latter profusely.The old doctor had seen the same scene too many times. He merely smiled and said benevolently, “Kid, take good care of your wife. I noticed that your wife is a little weak. From now on, don’t let her get too tired.”Philip quickly nodded in response and then helped Wynn back to the hospital room like a eunuch serving his empress.The two of them wat
Giada was tending to her plants inside the heavily-guarded Cirrus Villa.The man, standing five meters away from her, said humbly, “Madam, Miss Wynn is pregnant.”Giada stopped what she was doing and became extremely cold. She turned around and looked at the man. With an icy tone, she said, “Pregnant? When?”Giada frowned and the air around her became chilly as if she were an ice queen. She began to give out an aura of intimidation that could not be seen toward the people around her.“This morning,” the man answered with his head lowered.Giada folded her arms in front of her chest. Subsequently, she began pacing back and forth the reception pavilion anxiously.“Tell your people to bring that good-for-nothing back to me!” Giada said in an icy tone.Angry flames could be seen burning in her eyes.How dare she be pregnant with the flesh and blood of a Clarke. The audacity!Mila had been Giada’s last straw for Philip.There was no way she would let Philip off a second time.“Ye
The shopkeeper was a fat middle-aged man. He watched as the woman who was covered from head to toe entered his shop.Something to abort a baby?Such a thing was illegal!“No. No. We don’t have things like that,” the fat shopkeeper said immediately and resumed tending to the dried herbs that were on the table.Smack!Martha took out ten thousand bucks in cash from her bag and slammed it on the table. She asked coldly, “Do you have it or not?”The fat shopkeeper glanced at the money and frowned. He looked at the woman in front of him and insisted, “No, we haven't had such a thing for a long time. Take back your money.”Martha did not believe him. Thus, she took out another twenty thousand from her bag and slammed it down on the table. She asked, “Something to abort a baby. Do you have it or not?”To be honest, Martha felt something poke at her heart when she took out the extra stack of cash.Nevertheless, in order to make Wynn become Madam Harris, and in order to make sure that
“I’ll find a way to settle it. Prepare a present for me.”Philip said before walking out of the chairman’s office.The moment he left Apex Group, he bumped into Yolanda at its underground entrance.She was dressed like a vixen with the low cut top she had on. Additionally, her scent was very strong as she was wearing strong perfume. While she walked, her bottom that was perky swayed from one side to another.“Hey, are you blind?”Yolanda crashed headfirst into Philip, and she yelled angrily.“Philip, why are you here, you cuckold?”Yolanda lifted her head. Just as she was about to yell some more, she saw that it was Philip who was standing in front of her. Instantly, an evil smirk appeared on her face.Philip frowned, and he said coldly, “Do you not know how to speak properly?”Hehe.Yolanda played with her hair in a teasing manner as she scoffed. “What’s wrong? Your wife Wynn is doing immoral things, and you’re still playing dumb?”Philip was such a worthless fool. His wife
Wynn was almost about to start drinking the medicine, and Martha felt anxious and frantic as she watched on.After all, she was her own daughter.‘Wynnie, I am so sorry, but I don’t have a choice. You won’t have a good future with that worthless bum, Philip. Since you won’t abort the child, I’ll be the bad guy then!’Marta said callously in her heart.Still holding the bowl, Wynn was about to drink the medicine. However, just then, her phone rang.Wynn hesitated for a moment before placing the bowl down. Then, she looked at the caller ID and saw that it was from her company.“Mom, I’ll drink it later. I need to take this.”Wynn got up and walked out of the room to answer her phone.Martha was extremely anxious. She yelled, “Hey, Wynnie, drink this before you take the call.”Nevertheless, Wynn had already left.Martha was livid. She was so close.The next moment, Wynn came back. However, she merely grabbed her bag in a rush and kissed Mila before heading out once more.“Hey,
Naturally, their argument attracted the attention of many patients in the hospital and visiting families. They all gathered around to watch what was going on.Everyone could be seen pointing fingers and discussing loudly.“Oh, that must be the child’s grandmother. How devious!”“My heart is in pieces. How could that woman scold the child like that? I heard what she said just now. It was horrible!”“I recall the little girl’s parents to be nice people who are very friendly. How is it possible that they have such an evil mother?”Instantly, Martha felt as if she had been insulted.She was furious because everyone was pointing fingers and faulting her. Consequently, Martha walked up to the nurse and slapped her across the face. She yelled, “Who do you think you are? Are you even qualified to meddle in our family affairs? You’re just a nurse who my daughter and son-in-law hired. Don’t start feeling too proud of yourself, and don’t meddle in other people’s business. If not, I’ll slap
Anne was nervous. Hence, she said while she was being dragged by Philip, “Mr. Philip, it’s okay. I’m fine. She’s your mother-in-law after all. If you guys fight because of me, I’ll feel bad.”Despite feeling aggrieved, Anne knew her place.Martha was Mr. Philip’s mother-in-law after all. If they fought because of her, she would feel bad.She was just a child from a poor family. Her parents had told her that she had to endure every hardship thrown to her, and she could not fight with other people.Not to mention, Mr. Philip had always been good to her. She could not bear cause him any trouble.“It’s fine. Just listen to me. Even though she’s my mother-in-law, she can’t be allowed to be so unreasonable.”Philip comforted Anne. Even though he had managed to endure Martha for the past three years because of Wynn, he could not let the current matter go just like that.Martha had involved other people in her unreasonableness. How could Philip just let her be like that, showing her tem
Philip threw Martha’s hand aside and said coldly, “You’re indeed the one at fault this time. Anne is the nurse I hired, and you hit her for no reason. There’s no question that you have to take responsibility! It’s fine if you don’t want to. You can leave now. I’ll call the cops and let them handle this.”When Martha heard Philip say that he would call the cops, she was terrified.“You… You’re going to be the end of me! You spineless coward, how dare you threaten me!”Martha pointed at Philip angrily. She thought that a useless bum like him would not dare do anything. She had not expected him to be so unyielding.If he called the cops, she would be at a loss too.Apologize?Impossible!Martha started to throw a tantrum as she screeched unreasonably, “Why should I apologize? Why don’t you ask her why she got hit? I’m going to kill that little b*tch!”“Tell me then.”Philip looked at Martha coldly. He was ready to listen to her made-up stories.“She… She disrespected me in the h
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
