Just like this, more than ten pairs of eyes stared at the languid person who had suddenly appeared behind Philip. Everyone felt numb at their scalps. Their entire body tensed up.When did this guy appear?He could escape from more than ten pairs of watchful eyes!A person like that was no small matter.The leader of the bodyguards understood immediately. A person like that must be an assassin who was on an international level!Just from the flying dagger alone, he could tell that this person was extremely scary!“Young Master, how do you want them to die?”The man behind Philip had a clean-looking face. He looked innocent. However, his eyes were extremely icy.When he talked, there was a smirk on his face. One would feel like they were being watched by the grim reaper.“Leave no one behind. Cripple all of them!”Philip said in an icy tone. There was a terrifying expression on his face.“Go!”The leader roared, and more than ten bodyguards charged forward.The man behind
How overbearing!How cold!This kind of aura was coursing through Philip’s entire body!A man who had been a spineless coward for three years was actually so domineering!Martha was so scared that she did not dare to breathe too loud. She watched as Philip stared down at Giada. Her brain turned into mush.W-Was Philip always this overbearing?Giada was the woman who attacked her. How dare he say something like that?‘Either you die, or he does.’How scary!Martha was trembling from fear. She never expected to see Philip act like this. This was so terrifying!She was a fool back then. How could she humiliate and scold Philip that way?Martha was utterly horrified by how he had stabbed the dagger into Joel’s hands and leg.She swore inside her heart that she would never be arrogant toward Philip again. This man was horrifying.It was as if he was another person.At the same time, when Giada heard what Philip said, there was a cold smirk on her beautiful face.How dare this
Half a minute later, Giada, who was in the other car that was heading back to Cirrus Villa, got the news.At that moment, the temperature inside the car plunged to a freezing point.Giada said coldly, “Philip! How dare you do this! You went against my order! I will never forgive you!”Back at the villa, Philip held Wynn and looked at Martha who was on the floor coldly. “To the hospital.”Martha was as timid as a chick. She got up while trembling furiously. Cold sweat started pouring out from her skin like a waterfall.“Oh.”Martha replied and followed Philip out of the villa.When she saw that Philip did not say anything, Martha finally felt relieved. She let out a breath of relief, but her heart was still trembling.After they got out of the door, Martha was trying to call a cab hurriedly. In the end, Tiger drove a black Mercedes-Benz over and opened the door. He said respectfully, “Mr. Clarke, please get in.”Philip did not reject him. They had to get to the hospital urgentl
When Martha heard that, she started trembling. She pulled her blanket over her head and pretended to sleep.However, the trembling blanket clearly showed how terrified Martha was right now.“Martha!”Philip was livid. Martha did not have a limit. How could she make her daughter fall into a trap like this?Philip was vehement. This mother-in-law of the year had completely disappointed him!He barged into the room and spotted Martha curled up under the blanket. The entire blanket was shaking.“Get up!”Philip yelled.Charles tried to stop Philip. He said, “Alright, Philip. Nothing bad happened, right? Plus, your mom had no choice. You can’t blame her completely.”Philip glared at Charles and said angrily, “Charles Johnston, stay back!”Charles was stunned. He was shocked by Philip’s cold and angry words. He walked to one side while trembling.This time, Martha shot up from under her blanket. She had been watching the entire thing from a small corner under her blanket. She cowe
Philip did not know what to do because he had never experienced this before. He could sense a tinge of jealousy in the air. Were these two beauties fighting over him?“Alright, stop fighting.”Philip’s face was filled with awkwardness. He did not know how to end this.He was feeling remorseful toward Chloe.“No need, this place is so small. There’s no space for me anymore. I’m leaving.”Chloe took her bag and left.“Why aren’t you chasing after her? Go and coax your ex-fiancée.”Wynn peered at Philip coldly. She was feeling pleased with herself. See, the person Philip cared about the most was still her.She was throwing a tantrum now. She wanted to see who Philip loved.“Wynnie, please give me a break. There’s nothing between us.”Philip felt aggrieved. It would be fine if there was really something going on between him and Chloe, but there was truly nothing between them.It had been so many years. She could not keep bringing up the past, right?“Hmph!”Wynn scoffed coquet
After the manager said that, he eyed the server next to him.Then, two bodyguards in suits walked over. Their faces were cold, and they looked terrifying.A high-end restaurant like this would have their own bodyguards. The reason for this was to prevent people from making a fuss and affecting the other customers’ dining experience.After all, this was not a stall at the side of the road. Everyone who dined here was powerful and influential.“Hehe, kid, did you hear that? Get the f*ck out now! Why don’t you look at yourself before you act all arrogant with me?”Young Master Berkshire had a cold smirk on his face right now. He was extremely arrogant and despotic. He was being haughty, looking down on everyone.In his opinion, there was nothing he could not get.It was just a stupid table and this man was trying to fight him for it. What a blind fool!He was the young master of the Berkshires in Capital City. He paid hundreds of thousands to be a member here.Of course, the mana
A lot of people came here not to eat but to drink. The alcohol here was more rich and mellow. The aftertaste would linger in one’s mouth longer.When they heard Young Master Berkshire’s offer, everyone cheered on happily. They lifted their glasses and wished Young Master Berkshire’s girlfriend a happy birthday.The beauty queen of the university never experienced such a romantic gesture before. Her face was red, and she was infatuated with what was happening. She was feeling ecstatic in an instant.However, this was just the start. Young Master Berkshire took out a jewelry box from Auspicious Phoenix and opened it slowly. There was a dazzling gemstone necklace inside. He said in feigned gentleness, “Dear, happy birthday. I’ll love you forever. I’ll love you until the end of the world.”“Hooray!”The crowd witnessed what was going on. They were clapping and cheering for the couple.There were tears in the beauty queen’s eyes. She went to look at the necklace he bought her. It cost
Philip fell silent for a while. Then, he looked at Wynn and said, “You really want to know?”Wynn nodded and said, “Yeah.”Philip nodded. Then, he said in all seriousness, “Wynnie, I’m actually a nouveau riche.”Wynn listened to him while nodding. “Yeah, I know. Your family runs restaurants, and you bought the villa.”Philip frowned and explained. “No, maybe my nouveau riche is different from what you understand. I mean, I, Philip Clarke, am a nouveau riche. I’m loaded.”“How loaded?”Wynn ate her dessert and squinted. Her eyes were as beautiful as crescent moons. There was also a gentle smile on her lips.“Do you know Clarke Group?” Philip asked.Wynn nodded. She said, “Yeah, didn’t I go to their party last time? Too bad I didn’t get to meet Young Master Clarke.”Philip smiled and said, “Actually, Young Master Clarke is sitting in front of you.”“You?”Wynn was taken aback. She looked at Philip curiously. After a while, she reached out her fair hand and touched Philip’s for
At this time, Cameron and his men returned in the middle of the night. He saw the Claude family members crying as soon as he returned. They were bruised and battered from a beating, looking utterly miserable. Cameron was furious that someone would dare to bully his family members while he was away. “What's going on? Why are you in this state? Did someone cause trouble while I was away?” Cameron was angry and in disbelief, feeling that something was strange. Everyone nodded nervously. “Ronan is here!” The old woman who suffered the worst beating was very upset and glared viciously in Ronan’s direction. “Cameron, although you left me in charge while you were away, I can’t do it anymore. Ronan kept messing with us and even brought some people to beat us up!” The old woman made up stories and described Ronan as an unforgivable evildoer. Cameron scowled, but he could not believe it. “What did you say? Ronan actually hit someone?” He was unwilling to believe it. Although Ronan
Philip took out some fine wine, which was worthless to him but priceless to Ronan. Ronan laughed at Philip’s nonchalance and patted his shoulder. The two of them sat down and started drinking. Rabbit joined in the fun and swallowed the wine in big gulps. Although the alcohol content was a bit high for Rabbit, he enjoyed it happily. They quickly felt slightly tipsy. Although they were practitioners, they did not use any techniques to sober up. It was okay to be a little intoxicated as long as it did not affect them too much. It was rare to find a friend who they could click so well with, so it was a blessing to get drunk together. As they drank happily, the aroma of the wine wafted out. Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked for the source of the scent. They quickly found Ronan's residence and scowled. That smell proved that he had to be drinking good wine in there. “How is he worthy of such fine wine?” “Just a whiff of that wine clears my head, so it has to be good s
Although victory was not confirmed, they had to take part. Since the other party said so, they had no choice but to win. At the thought of the other major families, Cameron scowled as he felt the pressure. “I heard that you have a non-human descendant in your family,” the other party said with a smile, but it was uncertain if his intention was to mock Cameron or to find out some information. The Claude family scowled as they instantly figured out who the other party was talking about—Ronan. This person had disgraced the whole family. “We do have someone like that in our family. Back then, one of our youths was restless and impulsive…” Cameron wanted to explain, but the other party interrupted him. The mysterious man smiled with satisfaction at Cameron’s admittance. “If that’s the case, it’s great. Let this person take part in the competition. I’m interested in his strength and want to try it out in person. “Other than your victory, this person has to take part in the comp
By treating Ronan badly, the people would receive some rewards from the higher-ups. After a while, everyone got used to it. Even the wine sold to Ronan was cheap wine that no one wanted. “There’ll be a place for me in the world somehow!” Philip shook his head. These people’s attitude was strange, indeed, but he did not think that they could not find a roof over their heads. Since the Claude family was so arrogant, they could take over their place. Thinking of this, Philip took them back to the Claude family's manor and knocked on the door with a smile on his face. The guards were horrified to see Philip and Ronan again. They did not forget how badly they were beaten earlier. Thus, no one dared to stop them from marching in for fear that they would be beaten again. They could not afford the consequences. The Claude family quickly learned about their appearance. They scowled, their faces turning ashen. “Why are you here again?” “We already told you that they won't be ba
Even though everyone was angry, they could not help but taunt the culprit. The cowardly man coughed at their sarcastic remarks. “Let’s wait until the family head returns tomorrow. I don’t believe Ronan will be so arrogant when he’s around!” After saying that, he ran to his room and hid, unwilling to say more to the others. Ronan did not know what happened back then. As long as he refused to admit it, he believed that Ronan could not do anything to him. It was a conspiracy against Ronan’s mother back then. If the family head refused to protect him, he would tell Ronan everything to save himself.… After Ronan left the luxurious manor, his mood instantly became better. He never thought that he would do something so spectacular one day. “Thank you.” Ronan lowered his head to Philip humbly. He was grateful to Philip and wanted to pledge brotherhood with Philip. Philip waved his hands awkwardly, surprised by Ronan’s courtesy. He did not do much; he just gave him some confiden
Other members of the family had been so pampered that no one could fight Ronan either. All of them were sent flying, and some of them hung on the tree miserably. Philip laughed at the scene. These people had always treated Ronan as a pushover when, in fact, Ronan was a force to be reckoned with. None of them was a match for him. “I know that other than my uncle, some other people were also involved in harming my mother, but I don’t know who they are. You'd better hand them over or no one will leave this place alive today.” Ronan’s killing intent was very intense. He was clearly very angry. Everyone panicked and looked around carefully, at a loss for what to do. They saw the fear in each other’s eyes. The family head had taken Ronan's uncle and some other people to a city. It was difficult for them to find a decision-maker when the elders were not around. The instigator from back then was not around either. Who else could they look for? “Calm down. This matter has nothin
Ronan’s uncle did not hesitate to force his elder sister to her death just to kick the most promising descendant out of the family. This grudge was unforgivable. Everyone laughed at Ronan’s audacity to seek revenge. Only a fool would dare to do that. “Do you know how powerful your uncle is?” “Although he’s not here now, he’s not someone you can afford to mess with.” Everyone mocked Ronan without taking him seriously at all. “Did you hear what I said?” Ronan scowled. These people kept disregarding his request and paid no attention to him. He felt very upset. “Since you won’t hand him over, I’ll beat you until he appears. If he’s not here, other people can take his place.” He knew that his uncle was quite powerful and would often go to other towns or cities for networking. While it was true that he might not be around, it did not mean that Ronan would not make trouble for the others. Everyone looked at Ronan arrogantly, waiting to see what Ronan would do. Suddenly, Rona
The guards were taken aback by Ronan’s sudden arrogance and looked at him doubtfully. “What’s up with you? Do you want to take action?” “After all these years, have you finally decided to avenge your mother?” They kept taunting Ronan without realizing how angry he was. “I repeat—I want to see the people who forced my mother to her death back then!” Ronan stomped his foot in anger and glared at everyone around him. The guards were startled because they finally felt Ronan’s strength with that stomp. They did not expect him to be that strong. Maybe because of Ronan’s fury, they finally realized his might and quickly scrambled into the manor. Philip saw the name on a plaque—Claude Manor. The place looked pretty imposing, and Philip felt a stab of longing as he looked around. Philip stood without a word. His main objective was to help Ronan. The guards ran away in a panic. They knew that Ronan was going to make things difficult for them. “It’s bad. Ronan is at the door
The man could not resist because he was alone. Next time, he would bring more people to deal with Philip. Philip saw his resentment but took no notice of it. No matter how much he resented Philip, he would not survive tonight. Such an arrogant and domineering person would not live to see the sun tomorrow. “Y-You hit him?” Ronan looked at Philip in disbelief, shocked that Philip would stand up for him. Although he usually appeared simple and kind, he was not a fool. He knew that Philip hit that guy to protect him. “If you meet such people again, just fight them and don’t worry about unnecessary things. You don't want to fight because you’re afraid of losing the right to enter the town, but you’re my brother from now on. “I can take care of your wine supply, and we can find other ways to make money. You don’t have to waste your efforts and live under someone else's roof anymore,” Philip said arrogantly, not taking these people seriously at all. Hearing that, Ronan nodded with
