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
Ethereal Jewels!When they walked in, they saw that there were quite a lot of people in the shop. There were more than ten salespeople in the shop. They were all wearing black uniforms.It was the biggest jewelry shop in Riverdale indeed. The shop was so lordly.“Sir, how can I help you?”A saleslady walked over to them. She had a standard smile on her face and did a 30-degree bow.“Oh, I want to look at necklaces,” Philip said.Wynn was holding on to his arm. Then, she spotted something and ran over. She looked at the shiny jewelry in the glass case and was happy.Philip looked around and saw that all the major brands were here. They had all kinds of items ranging from gold, silver, diamonds, and even jade.They were also not cheap. Each one was at least tens of thousands.The saleslady was not a normal person as well. Since she was working in this industry, she had already trained herself to have a pair of sharp eyes.This pair of lovers looked normal. The guy looked ordina
A powerful practitioner could see things without solely relying on vision. After surveying around, Philip felt that it was a waste of time and decided to take everyone out. No matter what, he had to get hold of what he wanted before the other party tried to wiggle out of it. They were about to return the same way they came when they saw that the way had been blocked by something unknown. Aslan rushed forward and tried to force it open but to no avail. It had to be something special that they could not overlook. “They used something to trap us here. Those people are quite interesting. Do they think they can keep us here? What a joke!” Lyle cursed angrily. Those people were too much to play such underhanded tricks on them. Moreover, Philip and the others did not intimidate them or try to take their treasures by force. They could have negotiated a deal over it. However, the other party’s attitude seemed a little abnormal as they had no intention of cooperating. “Buddies, l
“Also, I smell a stench on them. How did they end up with that smell of decay and fish?” Katie joined in the complaints. As a woman who grew up in a fishing village, Katie knew that anyone would somewhat smell a little fishy if they had been in close contact with the sea and sea products for a long time, but elves were legendary nobles and had nothing to do with fish. She could not figure out why they smelled like that. Philip simply moved forward without a word. He had no answer to those questions either. The cave was dark and felt a little weird. Although he could sense his surroundings, the cave was filled with a strange and off-putting vibe. “I’m sure that the elf queen is up to no good, trying to trick us into entering this place. She’s probably going to deal with us. I have a feeling that something terrible lies ahead!” Aslan cursed, shivering as he thought of the other party’s ugly appearance. No one disagreed with his words. After all, they had seen for themselves h
“Take a look inside the cave if you’re up for it. I can consider giving you what you want if you leave the cave alive.” Philip nodded with satisfaction at the elf queen's cooperation. Although he knew that this was the other party’s trick to send them to their deaths, she clearly underestimated their strength. Once he was given the chance, it would be no different than delivering the treasure to his doorstep. “I look forward to this challenge. If possible, I hope all of us can enter.” Philip was excited. In his opinion, this was a great opportunity. The elf queen smirked smugly at Philip’s eagerness to die. This was exactly the effect she wanted. “No problem. All of you may enter. You can name your request if you can return alive, and I won’t turn you down.” The elf queen felt that Philip had totally fallen for her trick. Once they entered the cave, they would die for sure. The other elves looked at Philip warily. All hope was lost. They could only rely on their own strengt
“I’m surprised to find the long-lost humans in my territory. I've heard a lot about you.” The elf queen walked up to Philip elegantly. Hearing this voice, Philip looked back at the so-called elf queen, who sounded quite good. “What the heck?! She's so ugly.” Everyone could not help but curse after seeing her for the first time and had to cover their mouths, including Katie. Everyone clearly had the same opinion about this so-called elf queen, whose appearance was simply indescribable. “Is it true that only the ugliest elf has the right to become the boss? I thought the guard was ugly enough, but you bring ugliness to another level. How interesting.” Aslan was as outspoken as ever, and everyone burst out laughing at his crude remarks. Philip smiled at his sharp tongue. “You must be the queen of the elves.” Philip shook his head helplessly at the sight of the other party's goblin-like figure and shriveled wings. Although he had a smile on his face, the other party thought
The female elf put on her clothes in a panic and ran out in fear. The appearance of humans in the territory was a very serious matter. They had to report this incident at once. Philip did not stop the other party. He could tell at a glance that these two were very weak, almost at the bottom of the rung. There was no need to waste any time on them. It would be better to wait for an elf in charge to speak to them. “You've seriously neglected your duties. I’m afraid that I’ll have to report this,” Lyle said on purpose, smirking at the guard. It was ridiculous for a guard to neglect his duties to this extent when he was protecting the safety of all the elves, and Lyle hated such people the most. After leaving the room, the female elf ran to the elf queen in a panic. It was very serious to find outsiders in the elves' territory, not to mention that they were the legendary humans, a bunch of notorious evildoers. No one could imagine what chaos they would bring next. At this mom
Rabbit hopped around the grandmaster and felt that the latter was not lying. Rabbit had weathered many storms with Philip. He knew that according to human legends, the elves should be noble creatures. They were always arrogant and avoided contact with other creatures. “Anyway, since we’re here, let’s take a look inside. Who knows if any surprises are waiting for us?” Rabbit comforted Philip, and Black Rabbit was startled by his words. “You seem disappointed by this discovery. It doesn’t make sense to me. Are you really not aware of this situation?” Amid Black Rabbit's confusion, everyone entered the territory to watch the fun. Since the guard was enjoying his wonderful life, he did not pay attention to the invaders. He was supposed to be on duty with another guard today, but he swapped the other guard out because he wanted to be on a date with this female elf. The two were having a great romantic time in the room. Philip and his people entered the territory of the elves w
Later, the humans attacked the stone monsters, leaving the stone woman the only remaining survivor. Then, the elves found her. In the end, she was enslaved and became the gatekeeper of the elves. “Don’t blame me for your bad luck if you refuse to believe me. The humans are not to be trifled with. I’m sure you guys are no match for them,” the stone woman said vehemently. She came here with good intentions to report her findings. She wanted to claim the credit, but the other party disregarded her. The stone woman fought Philip earlier and knew exactly how strong he was. Although she was weaker than the elves, she knew that Philip could crush them easily and they would not be able to do anything about it. The elf warrior who received the message did not report the incident but returned to his station happily. He had been flirting with his female companion before they were interrupted. He had finally found a suitable female elf after so many years of being single, so he had no
Black Rabbit squeezed out a flattering smile and nodded excitedly at Philip. “Don’t worry. I’ll lie to anyone but you. I’ve decided to see you as my master and follow you from now on.” Rabbit was disgusted by Black Rabbit’s flattering look. “We’ll arrive soon. Although that woman is a bit scary, she’s nothing compared to you.” Meanwhile, the stone woman arrived at the elves’ location. Since the forest belonged to them, and coupled with the natural characteristics of a stone, she was very fast and arrived at the elves' territory before Philip and the others. The stone woman knelt at the door and stared ahead in a panic. “Are the elves around? Please come out. I need to speak to you,” the stone woman shouted at the door anxiously. An elf walked out unhappily with a weapon in hand. “Why are you making a fuss here? Do you want to die?” The elves were very arrogant and would never allow such an ugly thing to make a fuss at their door. It was not only impolite but also affect
“I know how you managed to survive, but I’m not interested in it. Don’t worry, we’re not one of those people. I won’t do anything to you.” When the stone woman collected the stones, Philip realized that the stones were connected to the woman's body. The stones felt different from ordinary stones because they had been carefully nurtured by the woman, which was quite amazing. “Leave now. Stay no longer. I’m afraid to see humans now.” The stone woman trembled and took several steps back. She entered a cave and refused to show herself again. The stone woman had done no actual harm to them, and she was truly afraid of them. Philip waved his hand and led everyone away without further ado. He was not interested in that ugly woman. Black Rabbit hugged Philip's thigh in fear along the way, feeling extremely nervous. He had thought that Philip and his people were warriors of a certain race, but they turned out to be humans. After joining the humans, he had no way of backing out. He hat
