“It was Master Clarke from Clarke Group,” Vernon said with a smile.Wynn froze, her entire body stiffening. It was Master Clarke again.Who was this Master Clarke? Why did he keep helping her?Just then, a group of people walked through the main doors to the hall. They carried with them an impressive presence, led by a middle-aged man with a beer belly and a red face. The man greeted the many tycoons from Riverdale.It was Ronald Harris from Harris Enterprise!That was the main player in Riverdale’s real estate scene!The moment he showed up, the spotlight turned to him for a while. Many people approached and greeted him.When Hudson saw Ronald walk in, his expression darkened. He turned to his assistant and said, “Go, get Ronald Harris over here.”He was very angry that Ronald and his son had taken credit for the young master’s actions. They nearly pulled the wool over the young madam’s eyes.Over on his side, Ronald was still greeting the others when a man in a suit ran up t
Ronald exploded like a volcano, showing just how intimidating he could be!He glared at his son and jabbed a finger at his nose, “You useless, useless son! How dare you lie through your teeth like that? When have I ever helped young Wynn here?”Joel was stunned. He looked at his father in confusion.What was wrong with the old man? Why was he turning on his son?Wynn was quite disappointed right now. Joel, who was once sunny and bright, had changed completely!He had become so two-faced and fake!“What are you saying, Dad? Didn’t you help Wynnie that time? I called you and you said you would assign someone to it. You said you could handle it.”Joel frowned deeply and forced the lie through, but he was getting a bad feeling about this.“Nonsense! When have I ever said that?”Ronald was properly furious now. “I just said I would have someone look at it. When did I ever say that I could solve it?”The air turned tense.“What on earth is happening here? Please tell me honestly,
No way!The man was a good-for-nothing, through and through!Joel shook his head and dismissed that ridiculous notion.After that, he continued to give chase, trying to catch up to Wynn and explain.Philip was at the door. When he saw Joel running past him in such a hurry, he was inevitably confused. Why was Joel Harris here too?Joel was shocked to suddenly see Philip here too. The next second, he was filled with rage. If it were not for Philip, Joel would be living happily with Wynn by now.He went up to Philip furiously and grabbed the latter by his collar, roaring, “Why are you here, Philip, you piece of trash?”Why?Why was this worthless wretch here at Copper Peacock Palace?The party tonight was held for Clarke Group’s Master Clarke. If Philip was here…Impossible!Philip yanked Joel’s arm away and straightened out his collar, sneering at Joel coldly. “Why am I here, you ask? You’ll know soon enough. Stay put and don’t leave, okay?”“F*cking idiot! F*ck you!”Joel s
The seven or eight young men and women immediately looked at Philip with contempt.“Have y’all seen enough? Scram off somewhere you’re actually welcome.”That was when Howard stepped forth and tried to shoo them off impatiently.“Haha, what’s the matter? Are you afraid of embarrassing yourselves too? If you are, shouldn’t you get the hell out of here?”Samantha crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking down her nose at them.“Shut up! Seriously, Samantha Benson, don’t you have anything better to do? I want to stay here, so I’ll stay. What the hell does that have to do with you?”Phillip snapped back, clearly angry now.“Hmph! R*tard!”Samantha scoffed, “You’re a turtle who’s never left your tiny shell. Stay here if you like, then you’ll see how puny you really are.“Let’s go!”Samantha turned around, sticking up her perky butt.Yolanda, Joshua and the rest happened to witness that scene too.“Haha, look at that. Joshua. Philip sure is useless. He took all that scoldin
Hudson reached out his hand enthusiastically to shake Philip’s.Everyone was stunned!All of them had their jaws drop, their hearts in utter turmoil!Frank, Samantha and the others were even more taken aback. Samantha especially had her mouth open so wide that she could stuff two whole eggs into it!Someone, please tell her what was going on here!Joshua, Yolanda and their group were stunned speechless as well. They stared intently at Philip, who wore a composed smile.No, that could not be!It must be a mistake!They were not the only ones who thought that. Samantha and her friends were similarly in disbelief!“Did you make a mistake, Mr. Cash? There’s no way he’s Master Clarke, he’s my third aunt’s son-in-law who married into the family. He’s a good-for-nothing food deliveryman.”Frank said snidely, interrupting Hudson’s handshake with Philip.“That’s right, he can’t possibly be Master Clarke. He’s just a poser of a peasant! There’s no way he’s Master Clarke.”Samantha sh
Philp looked at everyone’s expressions of shock. His eyes cold, he stared at Frank and said, “You say you had a meal with me before, Frank?”Smack smack smack!Philip’s words were like lightning-quick slaps to Frank’s face.Frank suddenly remembered the lie he had told at the Johnstons’ place that day. How embarrassing.Samantha was completely red now too. She did not even dare to raise her head, her entire body shaking.The worthless wretch was now emanating a terrifying aura!“N-No… You must be kidding, Master Clarke. How could little old me ever sit at the same table as you?”Frank lowered his noble head. In front of Philip, he had no qualms bending his back low.The sweat dripped off the corners of his forehead and fell onto the tips of his shoes.He did not dare to raise his head or straighten his spine.After all, Philip had not said anything yet.Behind Frank, Samantha’s eyes were lowered too. Her panic and terror showed clearly on her face.Philip did not look at Fr
She was about to step forth when her phone rang at just the wrong moment. Wynn glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Joel.She frowned her pretty crescent brows and simply rejected the call.Immediately, however, she received a text instead.The contents went straight to the point. “Wynn, I’m waiting for you at the carpark. There’s something I have to tell you about Philip.”Philip?Did something happen to him?Wynn was worried. She glanced at Master Clarke, who was surrounded by his admirers, and decided that she could still see him later anyway.That was why she turned around and headed for the carpark outside.She was very worried about Philip.On the other hand, Philip was giving a speech on the stage to a hall full of attentive guests.Yolanda had returned after leaving, and now she was standing amongst the crowd, still feeling lost. Her large eyes stared intently at Philip, in the middle of his speech.So he really was Master Clarke.“That piece of trash! He’s
”Sorry, Philly~ I was wrong before. I didn’t know you were so rich! Please forgive me? After all, we were classmates, right?”Yolanda whinnied, her eyes filling with tears the more she said.Tears, fears, and then a full-out tantrum. That was her modus operandi.Philip hurriedly said, “Stop right there. I remember clearly how you used to humiliate me. Are you saying you guys could shame me however you liked just because I was poor before?”Well, f*ck!He was not taking the bait!Yolanda panicked. Her playbook never failed her before, but it was not working on Philip.She had no choice but to cry for real!As soon as Philip said that, Yolanda let her tears spill down her face. Wiping her tears, she said, “I know, I was wrong. Please forgive me, Philly… Sooob…”What a headache!Philip had no idea how to handle her, so he could only nod. “Fine, fine, just stop crying! I’ll forget about what happened before.”Hallelujah!Yolanda immediately beamed at him and grabbed his arm aga
The grandmaster frowned. He believed Abba because Abba was the current head of the family and had an extraordinary status. “Some bad guys came along with him. They're the ones who tricked him into betraying the family. They're so strong that I couldn’t trap them. I had no choice but to let them enter our territory!” Abba added fuel to the fire, describing Philip and the others as heinous villains while he was the hero trying to protect the family. If Avon, also known as Rabbit, knew about this, he would probably pass out in anger. “They're probably trying to pass through the level right now. They’ll see you once they succeed, so I hope that you won't believe his lies. He has betrayed us and is no longer a member of the rabbit family!” Abba had achieved his objective. He knew that the grandmaster would never believe Avon again. “Fine, leave this to me. I know what I should do next.” The grandmaster fell into deep thought, perhaps thinking about how to deal with Avon. Abb
“Forget it. Everything is good as long as you’re happy. Anyway, we have to watch out. Those people are a force to be reckoned with!” The rabbit commander knew how stubborn Abba was, so he stopped talking after giving him some advice. Abba might beat him if he continued. Although they had been here many times before, neither of them knew where the grandmaster was. They could only wander aimlessly in the safe zone. The grandmaster was very mischievous and would play tricks on them from time to time. While Abba was searching aimlessly, a figure appeared in front of him. “Little one, you’re so nice to visit me so soon!” The figure that appeared was the grandmaster Abba was looking for. The grandmaster stroked his beard as he smiled at Abba. “Did you bring the things I wanted? I told you to bring me some pretty little maids. You must have forgotten my request!” Seeing Abba alone, the grandmaster sighed helplessly and seemed disappointed from the bottom of his heart. “Grand
“He had no interest in that position because he was powerless to do anything. Everything turned out this way because he had no ability in this area! Without the ability to rule the world or talent for practice, he has no right to inherit the family!” Abba hated his brother very much. He argued with the rabbit commander unhappily. “If I could trick him back then, I can do it again now. I'll find a way to send him away, but before that, I want to find out what brought him back!” Many years ago, Rabbit was imprisoned for a long time because of his family’s betrayal. Fortunately, he brought a few rabbit maids to keep him company. However, no one could bear being imprisoned in the same place for such a long time. Later, Rabbit met Philip, who rescued him, or he would still be imprisoned in that place until now. Abba was curious to find out how his useless brother escaped. After all, his curse was very effective. Under normal circumstances, Rabbit could not escape that place un
“Don’t you find the monsters annoying? They deserved to be beaten!” Everyone held a half-dead monster in hand. Philip had no idea whether he should sympathize or ridicule these miserable monsters. Soon, the monsters merged into one. “Congratulations on passing the first level. Please proceed to the next round.” Philip frowned at the monster’s words. Why did he feel like he was playing a game? It seemed that their actions had been under watch the moment they entered the light. It was a very unpleasant feeling. Philip hated being under other people’s control. At this time, Rabbit hopped to Philip's side. It was obviously not trapped in that mysterious space just now. “Rabbit, I feel that this place has something to do with you. You'd better recall what’s going on or we’ll beat you up!” Philip waved his fist fiercely. Rabbit’s ability to avoid the ordeal proved that he had an inseparable relationship with this place. Philip did not care whether Rabbit had lost his memories.
Since the monster was made of moss, its regenerative ability was strong. Any damage done would result in regeneration in another form, and its combat power would be stronger than before. In the end, Philip tied the monster with a rope. He tossed it to the ground and punched and kicked it. The monster had developed intelligence, so Philip could communicate with it. The monster would definitely choose to compromise once it was beaten into submission. Thinking of this, Philip punched harder as if he was going to kill it. The moss monster struggled in a panic under Philip’s attack, shocked by Philip’s psychotic behavior. Instead of killing it, Philip chose to torture it. Only a psycho would do that. Although the moss monster could regenerate and live forever, it had a sense of pain. It could not bear Philip’s torture. “Stop hitting me. I’ll let you out at once!” the moss monster said in a panic. It was just the first-level guardian of this place. There was no need to suffer s
“Who are you?” These green people blocked Philip’s path and asked. “Uh, if I tell you that I entered this place by mistake, would you believe it?” Philip said awkwardly. He did not know if these things were friend or foe and had no idea how to answer their question. At this moment, everyone's vision went blurry, and they were separated. Philip found himself in a strange arena. “Since you don't know why you're here, why don’t you defeat me first?” A green guy drove Philip into a corner, forcing him to take action. Other than Philip, the rest encountered the same situation. They were isolated in a separate room and faced the moss monsters alone. Philip seemed a little worried about this situation. If he was not mistaken, everyone was in the same plight, and the other party seemed determined to kill them separately. Philip was not worried about the others, only Katie. Katie was not as strong as the others. She was just an ordinary person who had just started practicing
Philip was full of anticipation and nerves because he had never done such an exciting thing before. At this time, the rabbit commander was horrified to see Philip and the others entering the mysterious light. “Oh no, why are they so foolish to enter the light? They’ll be dead in no time! I need to report this to His Majesty. One wrong move and we’re done for!” The rabbit commander quickly reported this incident, and Abba was furious. “Damn it, what’s wrong with these people? Why did they rush in when they knew it was dangerous inside? Are they tired of living?” Abba was so angry that he wanted to catch his useless brother and beat him up. “The grandmaster is inside the light. What should we do if they disturb the grandmaster?” The rabbit commander scowled. He knew that he and Abba were doing something that everyone would frown upon. They would be held accountable if the grandmaster found out what they were doing. “Why? Are you afraid? You weren’t so scared when you decide
“I wonder how my brother has been doing over the years?” Rabbit rubbed his hands excitedly. It seemed that he missed his brother very much. At this time, a bright light lit up. Everyone stared at the light nervously, wondering what was going on. When Rabbit was expecting his brother with joy, several beasts appeared and attacked them. Terrifying monster beasts jumped out of the light while roaring. Philip and the others were so shocked by the sudden change that they could not react and backed away to avoid the attacks. Philip raised his leg in surprise and kicked one of the beasts. “Is that your brother? He doesn’t look like you at all!” Hearing Philip’s remark, Aslan and the others looked at Rabbit in confusion, wondering what was going on. “Philip, stop kidding. That’s not my brother. It’s a monster beast!” Of course, Philip was simply teasing Rabbit. Those ferocious beasts were clearly trying to rip them apart. After making sure that they could kill the beasts, P
Someone sitting in a high position looked pretty imposing. “Your Majesty, your younger brother is back. We've locked him up per your orders. What should we do next?” the rabbit commander reported the situation truthfully. He obviously knew Rabbit’s identity and caught him per the given instructions. “Hehe, he’s finally back after so many years. In that case, bring him over. I believe the people at the top are still interested in him.” The figure in the high position spoke calmly without joy but with a hint of impatience. “He arrived with several others of different races. Should we get rid of them too?” the rabbit commander said fiercely, annoyed with those strange creatures. The other party nodded and waved his hand. He closed his eyes in rest and seemed unwilling to say another word. The rabbit commander executed the order. As the most loyal commander, he knew what he should do. Philip and the others were waiting for the rabbit commander to return with the result. At
