“Wynnie, what’s going on here? When did you buy a villa? Why didn’t you tell me? Also, why is it under Philip’s name as well?” Martha asked in bewilderment.

Philip stepped out and wanted to explain, but Martha glared at him while cursing, “Shut up! This has nothing to do with you. I’m asking my daughter.”

Martha was very upset now. Why was that good-for-nothing’s name on the villa?

Wynn looked unhappy, especially when she saw Martha chastising Philip. Could she not tell that the villa was actually bought by Philip?

“Mom, actually this villa is…”

Wynn was just about to reply when she was interrupted by Paula. “I know, did you buy this villa using the one billion investment from Clarke Group of Capital City?”

Instantly, everyone felt that it was the truth. They were filled with envy, but at the same time, felt contempt toward Wynn too.

How long had it been since she was appointed as the chairman of the company and she already started to embezzle the company’s funds? If something w

    Martha was almost ready to blow a gasket. Philip actually wanted her to kneel down!This damn useless piece of trash dared to be so bold!“Philip, what are you saying? I’m your mother-in-law, okay!” Martha flushed and glared.She felt very uncertain too. What if Philip really insisted on having her kneel?Argh!She was going mad!This was such a humiliation!Charles stood on one side without saying a word. This unreasonable madwoman who snarled at him every day had finally met her bane.“Charles, what are you doing? Don’t you notice that your son-in-law is acting so brazenly now? Aren’t you going to say a few words?”Martha was very upset when she saw Charles acting as if this matter had nothing to do with him.Charles smiled and said, “Philip, just forget about the matter. We’re a family, after all. What your mother-in-law said this morning was just spiteful words. Don’t take it to heart. No mother-in-law should be forced to kneel to the son-in-law.

    On the other side, Philip had just left First Palace not too long ago when his phone rang. It was Chloe calling him. “Philip, today’s my birthday. Don’t forget to come and accompany me.”Philip was taken aback when he heard this. Then, he recalled that he had promised to do so. “Okay, I’ll be there later.”“Okay, I’ll pick you up?” Chloe was very happy as she asked.“No need.” Philip shook his head.He had not cleared up his relationship with Chloe Sommerset yet. If she sent a luxury car to pick him up, it would never be cleared up!He did not wish to be seen by others and for gossip to spread later.“Give me the address. I’ll hail a cab later.”“Okay, once you get here, just tell them my name.” Chloe nodded, feeling a little disappointed.After he hung up, Philip thought for a moment and decided not to tell Wynn.He did not want Wynn to overthink this matter. Besides, he had another purpose tonight, and that was to have a showdown with Chloe.Chloe’s birthday party was being

    Silvia Hayes!She had a nice face, was dressed in a well-cut black skirt with a white top, and wore nude stockings paired with high heels. With her delicate makeup, she looked exactly like a mature white-collared worker.Philip turned around and saw a surprised Silvia. He chuckled.“Why do you look surprised? Am I not welcome here?”Seeing Philip, Silvia recalled the incident at the amusement park dessert shop and could not stop the blush from spreading across her face, so she quickly changed the topic.“I’m here with a friend. We’re just here to have some fun.”If not for Philip’s help the last time, she would be annoyed to death by Leon Larson.She only found out later that Leon’s family had gone bankrupt.This incident caused Silvia many sleepless nights because she could not figure out if Philip had anything to do with it.He seemed like an ordinary person.After she finished speaking, she stared at Philip with her big eyes. “Who did you come here with?”“Silvia, why are

    Harmony walked straight up to Silvia, glanced at Philip disdainfully, and said coldly, “Hey, brat, let me warn you, don’t harbor any evil intentions toward Silvia. You’re not worthy!”Philip, who was talking to Silvia, was taken aback by this. He looked coldly at the group of little girls standing in front of him.All of them were quite young but were dressed maturely.Moreover, they seemed very hostile toward him.“Excuse me, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Philip smiled calmly.Silvia was also startled and pulled at Harmony’s arm. “Harmony, don’t be like this. He’s my friend.”“Friend? What sort of friend? He’s nothing but a conman who deceives innocent girls like you.”Harmony rolled her eyes at Silvia and poked her in the head with her slender finger before saying, “Okay, I’ll solve the problem for you.”Problem?Philip was startled. This hostile woman who was facing him must have misunderstood something.“What are you looking at? Are you unhappy? Let me tell you

    Several girls glanced at each other. They kept comparing the man in the photo to Philip over there.They looked alike!How could this be?“Stop looking at him already. If it’s really him, I’ll gouge my eyes out!”A girl sneered as her eyes fell on Philip with contempt.How could such a man with an indistinguishable character be the mysterious young man in the rumor!Harmony and Yvonne also nodded in agreement. They mocked, “Definitely not. How can a young master have such a poor appearance? He should at least bring eight or ten bodyguards with him when he goes out. He just came here to eat and drink for free.”Seeing that Silvia was still staring at Philip eagerly, Harmony became angry and said, “Okay, stop looking at him already. You’re not interested in him, are you?”Silvia smiled, stood up, and bowed to Harmony and the others. She said, “I’m sorry. He’s my friend, so I’m going to accompany him for a while.”After that, Silvia ran toward him, happy as a little sparrow.Thi

    Jennie Todd smiled triumphantly. “I just saw Harmony calling Xavier and telling him that Silvia is here. What do you think Xavier will do when he gets here?”Mickey was startled. Everyone in the circle knew the hot-tempered character of Young Master Xavier Denver from Golden City. If he really met that fool Philip Clarke here, they might even get into a fight on the spot.“Look, isn’t that Xavier?” Jennie suddenly exclaimed.When the two looked over, they saw a sturdy young man in casual clothes walking in through the door. He was pushing through the crowd and striding forward.“There’s going to be a good show.” Mickey was amused.His father would not let him deal with Philip, but Xavier was no ordinary person. He came from the Denver family of Golden City!Silvia was still discussing with Philip about which desserts were delicious when suddenly, someone strode over and stopped in front of them.“Silvia, come with me, I have something to say to you.”There was no Philip in Xavi

    As the atmosphere grew tenser, Yvonne ran over to them and stood in front of Silvia, saying with a frown,“Xavier, this is Miss Chloe’s birthday party. You know she’s from the Sommerset family from Capital City, right? That means this isn’t a place where you can do whatever you like. Silvia doesn’t need your permission to go anywhere.”“Haha.”Xavier ignored her completely and instead loomed over Philip, glaring at him.“In all my years, you’re the first man who dares to challenge me like that.“I’ll show you just how wide the gap between us really is.”Philip smiled faintly and was about to say something when a stern-looking middle-aged man parted the crowd, approaching them as he said,“What’s happening here? Who dares to raise a ruckus at Miss Chloe’s party?”“Dang, even Mr. Moseby the head butler is here. Someone’s gonna be in trouble now,” someone who knew the middle-aged man said in a whisper.“The Sommersets are pretty influential in Riverdale too. How will they clean u

    Just then, a voice spoke.“I don’t know if he was invited.”The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a lavish evening gown and thick make-up. She sneered, “But what I do know is that I saw him collecting trash at Longford Park today.“I don’t think a mere trash collector would know our great Miss Chloe Sommerset, would he?”As soon as Jennie said that, the whole room erupted.“There’s no way Miss Chloe knows someone like that! Chase him out!”“He told such a tall tale, but he never guessed that he would be exposed just like that.”“I can’t believe Silvia has a friend like him. What a shocker.”Right now, everyone was looking at Philip with nothing but contempt and disgust.Philip was unmoved in the face of all their accusations. Instead, he turned to look at Jennie.He had met earlier that day; in fact, he was the one who had her thrown out. He then looked to her side and saw a sniggering Mickey.So he was here too. No wonder.Did Old Man George not

    “Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil

    Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an

    Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma

    On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra

    This young lady was finally strong enough to protect the beasts. “The grudge between me and those people runs so deep that I’ll never forgive them, so you can forget about it. You look like a good person, so I won’t make things difficult for you. You should leave this dreadful place at once.” Philip smiled helplessly at her words. “Don't worry, I don't like the people from Deadly Arena either, and I have a grudge against them too. In fact, everything happened because of them, so you don’t have to worry about it. If you want to restore this mysterious island to a place where the beasts can live in peace, you should work with me.” These people were not easy to deal with. Although Philip could deal with them with his strength, he would have to pay a price for it. It would be best if he had help. Philip had many ideas. “I’m surprised that you have a grudge against them too. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let’s talk about this.” The woman smiled excitedly. “My name is Foxy. I

    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
