A group of people barged in with the leading middle-aged man looking to be very powerful. He was wearing an expensive suit and had the air of an authority figure as he bellowed the moment he stepped into the room, shocking the staff inside the control room. The staff quickly greeted, “Mr. Hill, what brings you here?” Harold Hill was the supervisor of Millennium Amusement Park, in charge of the facilities, workers, security, and operation within the park. In summary, other than the owner, Harold was the second in command at Millennium Amusement Park. Harold nodded slightly. With a sharp gaze, he asked again, coldly, “Who is Philip Clarke?” Philip mildly frowned and took a step forward. “I am.” The few youngsters behind Harold rushed into the room and blocked the exit. The young boy Philip had slapped earlier, Jeremy Hill, was now pointing arrogantly at him as he said, “Dad, it’s him. He’s the one who slapped me earlier. You have to teach him a tough lesson!” So, they were here
“My name’s Theo Zander! Now take your people with you and scram!” Theo roared. This was the first time he felt humiliated, and it even happened right in front of Mr. Clarke. Would Mr. Clarke suspect his capabilities because of this? “Theo Zander? What’s that? I don’t know it.” Harold was a short-tempered man. He was the manager of a huge amusement park and had stayed in that high position for so many years now, so it was only natural that his temper was a little shorter. “Stop talking nonsense and quickly apologize to my son, or else, don’t even think about leaving!” Theo Zander? Why does that sound a little familiar? Forget it! Can he be more powerful than I am? I’m the manager here, the king! Theo was fuming with anger. With a reddened face, he pointed at Harold and roared, “Just try to even f*cking move!” Sh*t, this guy really thought he was a small fry! “What are you standing there for? Get them! Or do you all want to get fired?” Harold bellowed at his stall. The workers
Harold’s scalp was feeling prickly. His face was pale. “Brother Tiger, you’re...” Tiger Zander finally noticed him. He looked up in surprise and asked, “Manager Hill, what are you doing here?” What the… Harold felt like he was about to vomit blood. Did Tiger really not see him standing there? This was his amusement park, after all, his turf! However, Harold did not have the time to mind that now. When he recalled Tiger’s respectful attitude as the man addressed that two people earlier, Harold had a bad feeling about it. He forced out a smile and asked, “Brother Tiger, these two people are…” “This is my older brother, Theo Zander, Brother Theo. And this is Mr. Clarke, my brother’s honored guest,” answered Tiger. Tiger Zander was the top dog of Lord North Street, and Millennium Amusement Park was situated in this Lord North Street. Harold had been working here for many years now, so he naturally knew Tiger Zander’s strength and influence. He also knew that Tiger’s backer was the
How was he acquainted with a prominent figure like Theo Zander? “Wait,” Philip suddenly called out. In an instant, the group at the door froze in panic, unsure whether to stay or leave. “Mr. Clarke, do you have any other instructions?” Harold still had a little more guts and could afford to stay composed. “I hope you all will not speak of this incident today with anyone else. I do not wish for my daily life to be disrupted, do you understand?” said Philip. “We understand, we understand.” Harold nodded continuously. Philip then nodded, and the group immediately dispersed, almost running away. After they finally got out, Jeremy took a deep breath. When they reached the entrance, they saw Lynn. Jeremy hesitated for the longest time but chose to stay quiet in the end. “How did it go?” Lynn asked anxiously. To be frank, she was unwilling to watch her wretched cousin brother-in-law punished, so she chose to stay behind at the entrance. Jeremy shook his head and answered, “I
Leon suddenly started laughing. It was a burst of presumptuous and mocking laughter. “What did you just say? Four hundred thousand? Bro, there should be a limit to your act.” Leon continued to mock, “I think what you’re wearing isn’t even worth three hundred. Oh, right, and with that blind daughter of yours, you two wouldn’t even add up to four digits. Forget four hundred thousand, can you even pay up forty thousand?” It was Leon’s first time meeting such a hilarious person. The man was even a father to a child, what an idiot. He must have just been putting up a front to act cool in front of his kid. “Leon, what are you saying? You were at fault first. Why can’t you just apologize to the child?” Silvia sounded annoyed. She had never expected that Leon would hit such an adorable little girl. This man was too vile! Thankfully, she had not accepted his confession earlier. However, Silvia was worried about Philip because she knew of Leon’s background. The young man was from a rich fa
It was George Thomas’s number. Almost instantly, the call was answered, and from the other end came George’s voice, “Young Master, what are your instructions?” “Investigate Prime Harvest Group. I want them bankrupt in ten minutes!” said Philip faintly. “That’s a small matter,” George answered easily, but then he quickly said, “Young Master, this Prime Harvest Group seems to be doing well, so I’d suggest that you buy it instead. It’s not very expensive too. Their worth on the market now would be… three hundred million. You just have to spend three hundred million to buy them over.” George’s suggestion sounded really good. If he had to destroy a corporation, why not buy it over instead and own it? That way, no one would lose their jobs, and it would be good to keep the market stable. “Alright then, buy it over. Have Lewis Larson come to the dessert shop opposite of Millennium Amusement Park this instant,” said Philip calmly. “One other thing, I want you to send three hundred mi
Leon’s mind was now like a roller-coaster, in complete chaos. My name is Leon Larson, and I am now in a state of panic! There are thirty armored cash carriers outside the door, waiting in a line. Beside each car are four SWAT officers carrying loaded guns. They’re all wearing black battle uniforms, black helmets, and carrying black guns. Yes, it’s not the regular armored car escorts who carry rubber bullets. These are real bullets. Because the sum was too huge, the bank has contacted the SWAT team urgently, and they have sent more than a hundred SWAT officers over to escort the money. This was all done in less than ten minutes. Philip calmly looked at Leon whose forehead was now covered in sweat and said, “I called them here.” Boom! Leon felt his mind explode. His hands kept shaking. He was from a wealthy family and knew full well how terrifying a person is to send over so much cash in such a short time! His scalp felt prickly as he experienced despair for the first time. However
A father should be willing to risk it all for his child. In their words, if they had three hundred million, they would definitely smash the money, stack by stack at Leon until he apologized. Leon was utterly flustered as he struggled to get up. Philip had already ended the live stream. Theo clenched his fists tight and closed in, step by step. With a swift movement, he pushed Leon against the wall and growled, “Brat, I’d advise you to hurry outside and apologize to Mr. Clarke’s daughter, or else you won’t be able to see tomorrow’s sunlight.” Being disrespectful to Mr. Clarke’s daughter meant being disrespectful to his princess! That was right! In Theo’s eyes, Philip’s daughter was a little princess! Leon struggled as he started yelling, “How dare you! My father is Lewis Larson! So what if you have money? Can you just buy my company as you please? Dream on! If I say ‘no’, who would dare to sell it?!” Leon had thought it through. The man was only rich, but his father was an influ
“I think she’s right. You have no right to despise her for being ugly! If you have the ability to cure the groom’s disease, you can marry into a wealthy family too! You’re a loser for putting her down because of her looks!” Ronan’s sudden interruption surprised the bride. She never thought that someone would speak up for her in this situation. “Enough with this fiasco. Hurry up and end it!” Lazlo frowned and glanced at the people next to him. He had replaced the useless guards earlier. These people were carefully selected experts. The experts quickly flagged Ronan as a troublemaker and wanted to throw him out. “Let’s call off the wedding for the time being. We didn’t think it through carefully. We’ll decide after careful consideration. Please excuse us,” Lazlo said calmly but he was fuming inside. He knew that this was a disgrace to the family. He had never thought a woman could play him out like that. Lazlo glared daggers at Celeste in front of him. 'I wouldn’t have be
By right, everyone should respect Lazlo, but these people simply wanted to humiliate him instead. Lazlo always took advantage of them during their business dealings, so they wanted to teach him a lesson. For the sake of his dignity, Lazlo could not lose his temper either. “Hehe, the bride is coming!” Lazlo gritted his teeth and asked someone to bring the bride out. Everyone looked around eagerly, waiting to see what this legendary woman looked like. The bride wore a veil on her face, and no one could see her appearance clearly. “The bride is bound by the rules of her race, so she’s not allowed to show her face in public, but you can tell from her figure that she's indeed very beautiful. My daughter-in-law is not to be underestimated!” Lazlo laughed. It was the only option he could think of. Some nosy people created a gust of wind that blew the veil away. Very soon, the woman’s ugly face was revealed to the public. Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene. They gulped nervous
“But she’d be very attractive if she covered her face.” Her figure was very good, but her face was scary. Anyone who saw that face would probably be haunted by nightmares. Philip was curious. The woman could cure the groom’s disease, which proved that she had that ability. In that case, why was she in such a hurry to marry? With an ability like that, she could easily survive on her own. “She caught me red-handed peeking at her. Although it was embarrassing, she was very gentle and didn’t say anything. It’s a pity that I can’t deal with that appearance!” Ronan said awkwardly, ashamed at the thought of being caught red-handed. Philip rolled his eyes helplessly. He was no longer in the mood to watch the fun. Staying there was just a waste of time. He would rather leave. He was not interested in the free meal. Suddenly, they smelled a strange fragrance. Ronan frowned and rubbed his nose. The smell made him feel uncomfortable. “Someone is poisoning us,” Philip said calmly.
Lazlo knew that he would be doomed if he fell into Philip's hands. He decided to run away in a panic, but it did not mean he was going to give up. Celeste was his only hope to regain his dignity, and he would never let her off. “Keep a close eye on the situation. It’s best if you can knock Celeste out and bring her to me,” Lazlo ordered his men before he left. Since his men could not do it openly, they had to resort to some underhanded tricks. Lazlo had more than a team of guards under his command. Although the captain of the guards was no match for Philip, it did not mean that Lazlo was out of options. He had to solve this problem at all costs. Philip had no choice but to take Celeste away. Who knew they would encounter such a mess? “I never knew I was so charming that the guy wants me to marry his son,” Celeste said ironically. To think that something like this would happen to her. The people of her race were so valuable that they could not marry just anyone, let alone
The guards laughed. “No way, does he think he can handle us?” Everyone mocked Philip and did not take him seriously. So what if Philip had powerful abilities? They could easily overwhelm him with numbers. Everyone laughed as they surrounded Philip, and Lazlo smiled smugly. He rarely took action in such things. He simply watched the fun to appease his anger. “Just accept your fate. An ordinary man like you can't possibly fight us,” Lazlo taunted Philip, confident that he had nowhere to escape. When Lazlo was about to capture Celeste, he saw someone flying out. He thought his men had taken action and was surprised by their newfound power. Before he could do anything, he heard wails of agony. “Ouch, it hurts!” “This is too much. You broke my leg!” “Why is this man so powerful? He can fight us all by himself!” When Lazlo heard the screams clearly, he scowled darkly. “What's going on? Are my guards defeated?” he said in horror. Lazlo looked over and saw his guards ly
“It’s your honor that our family has taken a fancy to you. Stop resisting. Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? You must be trying to gain more benefits. As long as you agree to this marriage, I promise that you’ll lead a good life, much better than what you have now!” Lazlo looked at Celeste condescendingly, seeing her as a gold digger. “You’re sick.” Celeste was dumbfounded. Celeste pulled Philip and wanted to leave, but Lazlo had no intention of letting them go. He had finally found a beautiful woman to solve the problem for him. How could he let her go? He had looked around earlier but had not seen anyone as beautiful as Celeste. It would be a privilege to bring a beautiful woman like Celeste out. If Celeste was willing to cooperate, he could hold his head high in front of many people. Thinking of this, he summoned the family's guards. “Hurry up and capture them. Even if you refuse, you have to do it!” Lazlo laughed at this point. “Young lady, you'd better li
Philip winked at Ronan, signaling him to wait while he went in with Celeste to see what was going on. “In that case, my brother and I will see what’s going on,” Celeste said with a sigh. She just wanted to watch the fun. Why was she involved all of a sudden? Philip and Celeste walked in, and Lazlo was surprised to see someone else. However, a look of realization crossed his face after his servant introduced Philip’s identity. “Yes, I was too hasty about this. We should discuss this matter with the family.” He quickly invited everyone inside. After taking a closer look at Celeste's appearance, he nodded with satisfaction. Sure enough, this woman was very beautiful and perfect from every angle. She was the best choice for his son. To be frank, even Lazlo was attracted to her. “My son is getting married today, but his bride is very ugly, so I want to use you in place of the bride. After this, you can become my son's concubine,” Lazlo said condescendingly as if Celeste should
At this moment, Celeste looked no different from normal people, and her face was more stunning, capturing everyone’s attention with one glance. Lazlo was excited to see her and knew that she was the woman he had been looking for. Indeed, the bride was very ugly and had a strange appearance. He would never have agreed to the marriage if the woman had not saved his son's life. His son had been seriously ill and bedridden for a long time, almost on the verge of dying. To save his son, he promised that anyone who could save his son could make a request. This woman saved his son and requested to marry into the Cohen family. Although reluctant, big families attached great importance to promises. If they went against their conscience and broke the promise, it would greatly impact their subsequent practice. Hence, Lazlo had no choice but to agree to their marriage. However, to prevent people from talking behind their backs, he appointed some dedicated maids to take care of the ugly
Ronan grabbed the others in fright so that they could stay together. Ronan was a strong guy, after all. With his protection, the others would not be separated by the crowd. Philip looked at this scene and asked the onlookers curiously, “What’s going on? What’s the occasion? Is it a celebration?” Philip had a smile on his face. He thought the atmosphere was quite interesting as if someone was having a celebration. “Don’t you know? It’s the wedding day of the young heir of the Cohen family. I heard that they’ll be serving free spiritual beast meat during the feast. Whether it’s true or not, we want to join the fun. It’s great if the news is true.” “Young man, you must be a visitor from out of town. You’re in luck!” Everyone smiled and walked along excitedly, hoping to spread happiness. Since it was a happy occasion, Philip took the others to join in the fun. As expected, it was very crowded, and everyone sat happily while waiting for the feast to begin. They looked at a lux
