Philip was feeling righteous, and his eyes turned cold.Slap!After Vlad finished talking, a loud slap reverberated on the entire floor of the office.Philip’s hand made contact with Vlad’s right cheek, causing the extremely loud noise.He used all of his might on this slap.Vlad just stood there blankly before stumbling backward. A red and bloody handprint appeared on his face instantly.Everyone fell silent at that moment. A shameless local bully like Vlad had fought with countless people in his lifetime.However, this slap caused his brain to buzz loudly.Everyone was stunned.The security guards were starting to feel emotional when they saw this young man standing up against that tyrant. It relieved their stress. Tears started to well up in their eyes.Of course, a lot of other people were also shocked by what they saw.Was this the chairwoman’s husband, Philip? The useless bum?He was so amazing!Now, he was their hero!The staff who were watching what was going on c
Was he singing?Then, Philip took the taser and sent electrical shocks to the rest of the thugs with it. Since he was moving too fast, no one could stop him.Philip calmly threw the taser on the ground after seeing all eight of the thugs spasming on the floor. He clapped his hands together with contempt on his face.He was too powerful!Everyone was shocked, including Wynn whose red lips were wide open. She looked at Philip in front of her in disbelief.Even though Wynn had seen Philip fight before and knew he was good, the scene still surprised her.He defeated all of these thugs by himself!He only used a taser to do it!Did he do this to Joel too?Philip felt numerous eyes on him as he turned around to say to the security guard, “What are you waiting for? Call the cops.”“Kid, you… You’re in trouble. My boss will definitely not forgive you…”Vlad lied on the floor with his body spasming. He said while lifting his head slightly.“I don’t like it when people threaten me.”
Houston was shocked. He looked into Philip’s eyes and started to feel guilty.What was wrong with this guy?He did not appear to be a useless bum who depended on his woman...“What are you doing? What do you mean who sent me? I’m the vice-chairman here! Who are you and how dare you talk to me this way?”Houston’s face fell. He stared at Philip arrogantly and said.Philip did not back away. He said calmly, “Then let me give you a piece of advice, Mr. Michaels. Don’t cross my wife, and most importantly, don’t cross me.”Philip was the heir of an influential family. He knew how to read people.There was something fishy about Houston Michaels.Hehe!Houston chuckled coldly. How dare a spineless coward threaten him.What a joke!He was from the Michaels family. He was someone who had the support of the Wallises from Golden City. How dare an idiot like him have the audacity to speak to him like this. He was digging his own grave!“Madam Johnston, is this your wonderful husband? H
“Where are we going?”After they got into the car, Philip asked without thinking the matter through.Her wife’s body was perfect!Inside the car, Wynn took off her coat. She was wearing a white blouse that made her look sexy and elegant.“Kempinski.”Wynn replied. She started reapplying her makeup. After all, she was representing Beacon Pharmaceutical, so her appearance later was very important. Plus, it was an important project for the company. It was about the sales of the newly-developed medicine that could combat cancer.If this medicine entered the market, Beacon would be the first one to develop this in the pharmaceutical industry.“Hey, do you think I look okay?”Wynn looked at the mirror and asked Philip.Philip turned his head to look at her. He grinned and said, “Of course. My wife’s the most beautiful woman on earth.”Wynn rolled her eyes at him but was secretly delighted. She said, “You have such a sweet mouth.”Suddenly, she remembered something. She said, “Righ
Philip said coldly, “Mesmerized my *ss! She’s my wife!”Initially, Noah was not bothered by Philip at all. After Philip said this though, Noah turned around and stared at Philip with an icy glare.He was already agitated, but when he heard what Philip said, he immediately sized him up and chuckled.“So you’re Madam Johnston’s useless husband? Hm, I heard about you when I came to Riverdale. You’re just another worthless piece of trash who depends on women.”Noah’s face was filled with sarcasm.How would a man like that suit a goddess like Wynn?Philip shrugged and looked indifferent. He said, “I’m sorry, I’m sick, so the doctor told me I can only depend on women for the rest of my life. Are you jealous?”Philip did not hide. He went head-on with Noah.He could tell that Mr. Anderson had some ulterior motives.“You!”Noah was livid. His men were all glaring at Philip aggressively. As long as Noah gave them an order, they would immediately pounce on him and rip his mouth from hi
Wynn was panic-stricken, but she could not stop him. She could only hint at Philip with her eyes.Noah lifted his glass and drank with Philip once more.Philip downed the contents in his glass.“Haha! Nice tolerance! I’m taking you as my friend today!”Noah was smiling on the outside as he filled Philip’s glass again.Philip looked at the full glass of baijiu in front of him. There was a slight smile on his lips.Drinking?Sorry, he had drunk quite a lot back in the days.This was nothing to him.“Here, Brother. This is a toast from me to you!”Noah lifted his glass and downed the baijiu after lifting his head.He was experienced in the business industry and had been to numerous dinners before. He had already trained himself to be extremely tolerant, so he would be fine even if he downed three bottles of Wuliangye.Plus, he had already stationed his people around Kempinski, so he would not need to worry that Wynn would escape from this place.“Good! Let me toast to you as
Philip was the one who bought it?Impossible!“Wynnie, what nonsense are you spewing? Don’t try to protect Philip. I’ve heard all about it. This villa is under your name.”Martha smiled embarrassingly, but she was slightly panic-stricken.Wynn did not look like she was lying.Was it true?However, this mansion was worth 200 million! If it was not bought with the money from Wynn’s company…. Impossible! How could Philip, the useless bum, have so much money?“Mom, do you think your daughter has that much money to buy this villa?”Wynn’s face was cold as she asked.“D-Didn’t Clarke Group from Capital City invest a billion bucks into your company? Didn’t you use that money to buy it?”Martha said while gritting her teeth and shaking her head.Wynn looked at Martha and said helplessly, “Mom, do you know that embezzling is a crime? Do you think I’m someone who’ll use my company’s money for my selfish needs?“Plus, the funding from Clarke Group of Capital City is not here yet.”Af
Martha sat on the head of the bed and watched as Philip drank the soup. Then, she smiled and said, “Oh, we’re family. You’re my son-in-law. Who should I be good to if not you?”If anyone else heard what she said, they would have thought that they were extremely close.However, when Philip heard it, it felt ear-piercing and sarcastic.Like the quote said, ‘Beware of suspicious folk bearing gifts, they are sure to be ill-intentioned’. Was this not why Martha was fawning all over him this morning?“Mom, do you need anything?” Philip asked.When Martha heard that, she immediately played dumb and said, “No, it’s nothing. What can I need? Oh, get up soon, I bought breakfast for you. Come down and eat.”After she said that, she turned around and left.Philip looked at Martha’s back and shook his head helplessly. Then, he scoffed.Martha’s every thought was written on her face.After he went downstairs and entered the dining room, Philip started to drink the milk and eat the bun that
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“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
