It has to be said that the forces were capable of destroying an entire city’s economy.Even the eight great families of Capital City would crumble under the forceGiada was in Cirrus Villa when she got wind of this.“Madam, the young master has deployed all of the Clarkes’ forces in Riverdale,” Giada’s tall, slender, and sexy personal assistant said humbly.Giada got out of the bathtub that was over a hundred square feet and was covered in rose petals. She put on her bathrobe, frowned, and asked, Why?”“I heard that he lost something.”Giada’s personal assistant replied with her gaze was lowered. She did not dare to look at Giada directly.A lowly peasant like her was not qualified to look at the madam’s body.“What is it?”Giada walked over to the wine rack and poured herself a glass of Whiskey. She folded her arms in front of her chest and asked in interest.“It’s something Madam Charlotte left for the young master,” replied the personal assistant.Giada’s expression chang
The boss was confused but a thought soon flashed across his head. Consequently, he nodded and then shook his head. “Madam, it is something good, but it’s not worth much. It’s a fake. Why don’t I take this for one hundred thousand dollars?”The boss knew that the bangle would sell for at least 100 million in the market.“What? Only a hundred thousand?”When Martha heard him, she snatched the bangle back and shook her head. “I’m not selling it anymore. My husband told me that it’s worth at least a few hundred thousand. You’re lying to me!”The boss hurriedly explained after hearing her words, “Madam, I came all the way here. There’s no reasoning for me to lie to you. It is indeed a fake and only cost a hundred thousand bucks. If you don’t believe me, you can ask other people. If anyone offers you a higher price, I, Mo Dunbar, will pay you twice the price they offer you!”Having said that, Mo pretended to get up and leave.He was the head of the industry. Therefore, he only needed t
Martha was completely insane!She was overwhelmed with anger!She was livid!The piece of trash had slapped her. If she did not teach him a lesson, how would she maintain her position in the family?After she finished yelling, Martha lifted her hand to smash the bangle against the wall!In the blink of an eye!A roar filled the living room like a raging fire!“Don’t you f*cking dare! You’re asking to die!”Philip’s eyes were red, and he was clenching his fists tightly. Not only had wrinkles began to form at the corner of his eyes due to anger, but the veins on his neck and forehead were now twisted like the image of a dragon!“Ah!”Martha was shocked. She was going to have a heart attack from fear.Nevertheless, before she could understand what was happening, Philip walked up to her with his eyes filled with the flames of wrath. Philip glared at Martha the same way he would at a dead body!Crack!Philip reached out his hand, strangled Martha’s neck, and lifted her off the
Wynn was horrified when she saw what had happened in the house. She ran in and helped Martha up before exclaiming, “Mom, what happened? I’m going to take you to the hospital.”When Martha saw that Wynn had arrived, she was relieved. She started throwing a tantrum as she yelled, “Why should I go to the hospital? Just let me die here! Look who attacked me! It’s Philip!”When Wynn heard that, she turned around and looked at Philip in anger and disbelief. She asked, “Philip, what did you do? She’s my mother!”Philip knew that such a thing was going to happen. As long as Martha was there, things would settle down so easily.He said coldly, “Yes, she’s your mother. However, ask her what immoral things she has done.”“Y-You’re spewing nonsense! What did I do? It was just a stupid bangle! Did you have to go as far as to hit me? You even hit me until I became like this. I am your mother-in-law! You’ll be struck by lightning and thunder! I don’t care! Wynn, you have to divorce him today! If
Half an hour ago, Philip received a call from George who said that there was an emergency.Subsequently, after exiting the hospital, Philip saw George standing in front of its entrance with a cane in his hand next to his Rolls Royce.George was wearing a suit with a hat. Evidently, he looked polite and refined.However, when Philip approached George, he could see that George’s forehead was drenched in sweat, and the latter’s eyes looked frantic.Something was wrong!He had to tell the young master immediately.“What happened, Old Man George? Why are you in such a hurry to find me?” Philip asked as he walked out of the hospital’s entrance.“Young master, I was wrong.”George respectfully bowed and lowered his head. There was a hint of self-blame in his tone of voice.Philip frowned. It was his first time seeing George acting like this. He smiled and asked, “What happened?”George did not dare conceal the matter from him and replied, “Young Master, the young madam and the unbor
All of a sudden!Bang!The door was kicked open violently from outside.Wynn turned around, looked at the door, and saw a figure standing tall at the entrance. It has to be said that the figure’s back was facing the light. The person then barged inside, took Wynn’s bowl, and smashed it on the floor!Smash!The bowl was smashed into pieces.When Martha saw that the bowl had been smashed, she felt anger well up in her chest. She stood up and pointed at Philip before shrieking, “Philip, you rascal, what are you doing? Are you still going to respect your mother-in-law or not?”Slap!Philip’s response to her was a slap in the face.Martha fell to the ground after being slapped and did not get up even after a long while. She began fuming.“Philip, what are you doing?”Wynn was horrified. She had noted expect Philip to barge in, smash the bowl, and slap Martha in front of her.Nevertheless, Philip was furious. He turned around and glared at Martha who was on the floor. Then, he po
The Maybach 42S stopped in front of the old Johnston Manor.Behind it was five black Benzes.It was a motorcade!The sight attracted the attention of many passersby and neighbors around the manor.“Oh, there are so many luxury cars. Which VIP is this?”“Holy moly! Maybach 62S! It’s Theo Zander’s ride! Why is he here?”When the neighbors heard that it was Theo’s car, they backed away in fear and only dared to watch from a distance.He was the Underground King of Riverdale.There was a time when his name was the cause of the normal residents’ nightmares.Who could afford to offend him?Why was a VIP like him there?“Hey, they’re getting out of their vehicles. Who’s that? The young man looks so familiar!”“Look! That’s Theo, and that’s his number one right-hand man, Tiger!”“Who’s that young man? Theo is being so respectful to him.”The crowd watched from a distance as they gossiped among one another.They caused a huge scene, and it was difficult for them not to attract th
Slap! Slap! Slap! The sound of slapping filled the room. Martha’s face had been smacked swollen with patches of her skin blooming in shades of black and blue while blood trickled down the corner of her mouth. All Charles could do was watch from the sidelines. He could scream his lungs out, but there was nothing he could do to stop them. In the end, Tiger came forth with a bottle of medication at the snap of Theo’s fingers. He walked menacingly toward Martha who had long lost her bearings from the slaps. Setting her eyes on the concoction, Martha felt fear creep up within her. Tears streamed down her face while she shook her head as if her life depended on it. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Please don’t, Theo. Please don’t make me drink the poison, no, please…” Her begging fell on deaf ears. After clamping a hand over Martha’s throat while others forced her mouth open, Tiger then poured the concoction into her throat. Karma was a b*tch! With her head tilted up as she was force
Philip did not intend to kill Tom. On the contrary, he wanted Tom to live well so that he could suffer in pain all the time. Philip smacked Tom's body several times. Tom felt something was wrong the moment it happened. He looked distorted as if he was controlled by someone. His body was also twisting in weird angles. “I’ve destroyed your practice. You can never regain your power even if the demons help you. What do you think of this reward?” Philip sneered at Tom’s twisted posture. Philip severed all of Tom’s veins and imprisoned him in the swamp so that he could suffer the erosion of the swamp day and night. He wanted Tom to watch over Marina's remains forever. “I don’t have any grudge against the merfolk. I promised to help you back then, but you were stupid enough to believe the words of a treacherous villain to the point of killing your holy maiden. This is really sad and ridiculous.” The merfolk had suffered a tragic end, which was pitiful, so Philip did not want to dwel
“Chief, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and finish the ritual. Don’t let that guy get his way. We have to get back at him for his disrespect.” After saying this, Tom charged at Marina. He knew that he needed Marina’s blood to have a fresh start. At this time, Moray took out the merfolk's pearl. They hid the pearl very well and finally found it in the warehouse. Marina smiled in despair at the sight of the pearl. She obviously did not expect things to go so out of control. “Philip, I’m sorry to have wronged you earlier. It seems that you’re the only good person around. Everyone else has an ulterior motive and is always thinking about using me. In that case, I’ll do the last thing I can do to seek your forgiveness.” After saying this, Marina rushed to the pearl in Moray’s hand with sorrow in her eyes. Philip had a bad premonition and had a guess about what Marina was about to do. “Stop her!” Philip waved his hand, and everyone rushed over. Some people pinned Moray down
Although Tom had been tortured beyond recognition, he was still rational and yelled out his plan. Moray was hesitant. He knew what Tom was referring to. The merfolk had a powerful secret technique to create an immortal body by merging the blood of the holy maiden with a powerful warrior of the family. Tom was in such a bad condition that he would be dead if they did not save him now. However, once Marina and Tom’s blood were merged, it meant that they would have to be together and never be separated again. Marina shook her head in rejection. Not to mention the damage it would cause her, but she did not want to share the rest of her life with Tom. No one could live an eternal life with someone they did not love. However, Moray had gone crazy. He was bewitched by Tom and only had victory in his eyes. Although Tom was in a bad state, Moray believed that Tom could turn the tables with a little help. With that thought in mind, Moray grabbed Marina and pushed her to Tom reluctant
“Very well. I approve of this marriage. After you defeat Philip and return in victory, we’ll proceed with your wedding.” Hearing that, Tom sneered inwardly. He was an ambitious man. He was unwilling to let Moray control him. He planned to get the merfolk's treasure now. As long as he got the pearls from the merfolk and fish creatures, he could dominate the world with the treasures that could store energy, and everyone would have to bow down to him. He could force Marina to provide her blood and activate the pearl.When Marina was in despair, the mud that trapped Philip suddenly moved. Everyone was astounded by this scene. No one thought that Philip could survive. He was very strong, indeed. Before Tom could attack again, the swamp exploded. Tom was shocked. He had a bad feeling that everything would progress differently. Thinking of this, he kept attacking Philip with every means he had. However, it was futile. Philip easily broke through Tom’s defense and attacked him.
Now that they had started fighting, it seemed that things would not end well. Moby had no idea whether he should root for Philip or not. “Philip, don’t give up!” After much deliberation, Moby finally decided to cheer for Philip. He stood a better chance to survive once Philip won. He would pay with his life if anything happened to Philip. Besides, he had just decided to join Philip when Philip generously rewarded him with some precious elf water, which proved that this was a boss worth following. He might get more benefits by sticking with Philip, so he did not want anything to happen to Philip. Meanwhile, Philip was stuck in the swamp. He was just about to break free from the swamp when he felt something strange. The swamp did not hurt him but strengthened his body instead, making his skin unusual. Philip already had a divine body, and combined with all the powerful pills and various herbs he had consumed before, his body was far beyond anyone’s imagination. It turned out
“You want the merfolk's pearl, but the fish creatures haven't given it to me yet. I don’t have it right now. Even if you defeat me, what’s the point? The fish creatures can run with it while you’re distracted. It’ll be a waste of time for you to fight me,” Philip said. He was really worried about Tom’s IQ. He could understand if he attacked Moby instead. “The thing is in Moby’s hand, but you want to attack me instead of dealing with him. Is it because you can't get the woman of your dreams?” Philip had a sharp tongue, and Tom trembled at his words. Philip dared to humiliate him like this. However, Philip had a point. He should deal with Moby instead. He was just annoyed that his beloved Marina liked Philip. Tom was infuriated by Philip’s words and attacked him. He had to kill Philip at all costs and show Marina the scene of Philip's defeat. The two were quickly engaged in a fight, and Tom moved fluidly in this disgusting swamp. Philip maintained a superior position and foug
“This is an agreement between me and Chief Moray. It’s not up to you.” After saying this, Tom took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. Philip thought Tom was going to attack him, but Tom used the dagger to cut himself instead, leaving everyone wondering what he was doing. After injuring himself, he took out a bottle of potion and poured it on the wound, which healed in a few seconds. Philip was surprised by the rapid recovery. The potion had to be a treasure. At this time, everyone realized that Tom's strength was increasing rapidly to the point of being daunting. Aslan stepped back cautiously, surprised by this unexpected turn. He had always been a fearless person, but he felt a sense of oppression from this weak person. It proved that the potion was powerful enough to pose a threat to him. Thinking of this, Aslan scowled and reached out for Philip, hoping that Philip could take care of it. After all, he and Lyle were equally strong. If he could not deal with Tom, Lyle
“Tom, if you can take care of this matter, I’ll give you Marina’s hand in marriage. I’m sure the two of you can work together to lead the merfolk to glory.” Everyone was shocked, including Tom, who was in disbelief. No one expected that Moray would ask Tom to marry Marina. Even the fish creatures were shocked. Although they were enemies, they knew that Marina was the merfolk's holy maiden. Tom had been protecting the holy maiden over the years, so he was a servant without a doubt. It was ironic to hear that a servant was worthy enough to marry the holy maiden. Marina was shocked and subconsciously glanced at Philip, who was indifferent about it. After all, it was the merfolk's affairs, nothing to do with him. Philip would not bother even if Marina had to marry an old man. “However, you must prove your ability before you can marry my daughter. If you get the item, I’ll hand her to you.” Moray had been seriously injured before this and could no longer fight normally. The merf
Philip took out a small bottle of elf water from his pocket and handed it to Moby. He wanted to see what the ugly creature would look like after taking the precious elf water. Moby was shocked to see Philip handing him some elf water and felt unworthy of it. At Philip’s insistence, he walked over and respectfully took the small bottle of elf water from Philip. He took a sip cautiously and wanted to marvel at its wonderful taste. Philip felt exasperated at Moby’s caution. Moby probably had no idea how Lyle and the others treated the water. They not only used it to bathe but also drank it casually like normal drinking water. Marina and the others watched with envy. They knew how precious the elf water was, so they were shocked by Philip’s generosity in giving it to the humble fish creatures. Even the merfolk found it difficult to get some elf water, but these lowly creatures got it. No one would be happy at this scene. Philip glanced at everyone. The other fish creatures st
