Once Philip died, this beautiful woman would be his. Hearing this, Philip nodded thoughtfully. Cole inwardly chastised Philip for being a fool! As if he remembered something, Cole said, “By the way, they hit me when I wasn’t looking!” Philip felt amused at Cole’s accusation. Cole felt that the outcome had been decided, so the next step was to deal with Philip. He accused Philip of whatever he could think of. Gavin looked very pleased. This guy was so smart. He was still looking for an excuse to deal with Philip, but Cole had already mentioned several points. “Now that Young Master Skater has identified you, come with us,” Gavin said coldly. He was certain that Philip was the suspect and wanted to arrest him. Wynn was in a panic. Although she knew that nothing would happen to Philip, she was still worried. “Since you insist that I hit a practitioner, it’d be a shame if I didn’t.” Philip blinked in mock seriousness. Everyone shuddered at Philip's harmless appearance
He knew that the man who messed with the third young master of the Skater family was not very strong, but his skills were extraordinary! Every move was illusory and unfathomable. In comparison, the skills and techniques they owned seemed insignificant. After Philip displayed his technique, Gavin's energy resonated slightly as if he wanted to submit to the other party! Gavin glanced at his companion in horror and found that the other party was looking at him in disbelief too. “You feel it too?” Gavin asked, dumbfounded. His eyes were full of horror. He could not figure out what was going on. He wondered what Philip’s background was to possess such power that made his technique submit to him! “Let’s stay put for the time being. This person is not that simple, mostly likely a descendant of a reclusive family. His accent doesn’t sound local. Maybe he’s a renowned figure from out of town, someone we can't afford to mess with.” Gavin discussed it with his companion and finall
Seeing that Philip was safe and sound, Preston was relieved. The only victim, Cole, looked at Philip in agony. He wanted Philip to clarify that he really did not do anything this time. However, why would Philip speak up for him? He was not stupid! “I’ve warned you repeatedly not to mess with my teacher and his wife. Is this the Skater family’s stance?” Although Preston was very young, he was terrifying when he lost his temper. “You can wait for my family’s revenge next,” Preston sneered and tossed Cole aside without further ado. Cole looked no different from a dead man now. Preston’s subordinate caught Cole and tossed him into the car. To them, this guy was no different from a piece of cargo that could be tossed around at will. Cole had passed out in anger, but he woke up when Preston tossed him to the ground. He bared his teeth and was about to scream when he was tossed into the car, where he passed out again. “Teacher, are you okay?” Preston asked nervously. It
“Um, excuse me. It was our mistake for believing Cole’s side of the story. It wasn't our intention to slander you.” Gavin apologized together with his female companion. No matter who Philip was, he must be extraordinary for Preston to stand up for him. Maybe he really was a renowned figure from out of town. “We need to register practitioners here. Even if you’re from out of town, you need to register your information with us.” Gavin respectfully approached Philip with a booklet and wanted to register Philip's information. “No need to register him.” Preston took the booklet away calmly. He knew that Philip had to keep a low profile. His identity as a member of the Clarke family could not be exposed for the time being. Gavin looked awkward but could not do anything about it. “You can leave now.” Philip frowned at the two people from the Practitioner Society. He was very displeased with their arrogance when they made their first appearance just now. The stronger the pr
Along the way, Montel could hardly contain his excitement. He gripped the steering wheel and wished he could fly to Cloudvale directly. Cloudvale was unpeaceful at this moment. The Tampa family found out that the young patriarch of the Zucker family would be visiting them. They were not excited but full of anxiety instead. “It has been three years, and they finally found us. We're so well hidden that no one should be able to find us! How did the Zucker family…” The elders of the Tampa family gathered to discuss this matter. What happened back then was still vivid in their minds. “Let’s put this aside until the Zucker family arrives. So what if they're good at fortune-telling? This is Cloudvale, our territory!” The patriarch of the Tampa family was somewhat displeased. He shuddered at the thought of the trouble he would face next. However, as the head of the family, he had to calm the other family members down. Thus, he held on and pretended to be disdainful. Sure enou
The father and son chatted and laughed in the study as if they had new plans for future development. Soon, Montel stopped his car in the Tampa family’s garage. Montel lamented them for being spendthrifts at the rows of luxury cars parked there. Although the Zucker family was wealthy too, they believed that all their money should be left for the Clarke family, so they lived frugally. Even the luxury cars they had were earned by doing business in secret over the years. The Clarke family had been kind to the Zucker family, so the latter had been repaying their kindness for generations. The Tampa family was no different from the Zucker family. They had both received help from the Clarke family, but their choices at critical moments were completely different. Some people chose loyalty while others chose betrayal. Montel did not know all these. He arrived at the Tampa family's reception hall, which looked spacious and bright, worthy of a wealthy aristocratic family. “You must
This guy's daughter had grown up so much in the blink of an eye. Philip felt a little emotional and was about to give the other party a sum of money for her living expenses when several voices rang behind him. “Hey, why didn’t you set up your stall today? Have you prepared the protection fee?” “Don’t hide in your house and pretend that you’re not there. You have to pay double the protection fee because of the delay this month. Hand over 5,000!” Hearing the punks’ remarks, the surrounding neighbors quickly shut their doors for fear of implication. The passersby also ran away for fear that these punks would target them for money. They were poor people living in slums and had no money to pay these punks a protection fee. At first, they would contact the police, and these people had been detained several times. However, after they were released, they acted as if nothing had happened and increased their efforts to look for the whistleblowers. In the end, everyone gave up, kn
Jenny was quite pretty and could be considered one of the top beauties in this average small town. Although she just reached adulthood, her figure had developed better than many adult women. Crusty and his underlings had set their eyes on Jenny for a while, but when Jenny’s father was around, they could not do anything. Now that Jenny's father was dead, they could hardly wait to take advantage of the situation. “You! I’ll never agree to this!” Jenny stepped back and grabbed the door handle, trying to close the door while the other party was not paying attention. She lived here alone and had to be careful. Philip felt very satisfied when Jenny rejected the other party decisively. He wanted to help, but now was not the right time. “Boys, go in and trash the place up. Throw away all the things she’d use to set up the stall. Let’s see how she can do business without those things!” At Crusty’s command, everyone sprang into action. They pushed Jenny aside and tried to barge
