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
Philip looked at the tattooed man who was charging toward him. He shook his head helplessly. He swung his arm and muttered, “You’re the one who’s forcing me. Don’t blame me.”Slap!A loud noise!Philip’s hand made contact with the tattooed man’s face. The man spun 360-degrees after being slapped by Philip.“You… How dare you hit me!”The tattooed man finally stopped spinning. He pointed at Philip and growled while his head was still spinning.“Why should I be scared? Come at me.”Philip grinned and slapped him again!The tattooed man could not see how Philip slapped him. He felt like he was being slapped by an iron board. His body started to spin uncontrollably.Philip was not done yet. He started using both his left and right hands. The entire dimly lit alleyway was filled with slapping noises!Philip only stopped when he got tired.The tattooed man’s face was as swollen as a pig’s head now. His mouth was filled with blood. Then, he shook his head and collapsed onto the g
He grabbed the ring over his head that was meant to support passengers and lifted his leg to kick Philip’s waist.If his kick landed, Philip would either be half-dead or half-crippled!Philip did not have time to hesitate. Chico’s heavy foot was already coming at him.He snorted. He did not move his body, but instead, he lifted his right leg and kicked the joint of Chico’s other leg.Crack!The loud sound was caused by Chico’s bone breaking.Then, everyone on the bus heard Chico’s screams of pain. He sat on the ground while his legs split open. Huge droplets of sweat started to roll down from his chubby cheeks.“Ah! My leg! My groin!”Chico was trembling with pain. While he clutched the knee on his left leg, his other hand grabbed his right leg.He felt like he had been split open. The pain was burning!A few of Chico’s bald men were speechless after they saw what happened. They were so shocked that they all gasped at the same time.After a while, they finally came back to t
Philip did not say anything. He immediately called a cab to the hospital.He kept urging the driver to drive faster.Damn that Juan! He was really storing up for future calamities!What did he want?Back then, Philip had let him go. Now, he was back. Was he here to seek revenge?Philip huffed and puffed after he got out of the cab at the entrance of the hospital. He ran to the sixth floor where Mila’s room was.Bang!He pushed open the door loudly.Philip saw a man drinking coffee on the sofa in the room. He was wearing a navy blue suit and had his hair swept back. There were two solemn bodyguards behind him. They were all wearing black suits, and coldness was radiating from every inch of their bodies.From the air around the bodyguards alone, Philip could tell that these two had survived battles of life and death.Philip ignored Juan and ran to the bed. He noticed Mila was still sleeping and that she was completely fine.“A father’s love is so amazing. I didn’t think you co
After Juan left, Philip made a call. His entire body was engulfed with murderous intent. He said, “Investigate one person for me. His name is Juan Parker. I want to know all the people who are backing him.”“Daddy.”Suddenly, a childish and sweet voice called out to him.Philip turned his head, and there was a gentle smile on his face. He looked at Mila who just woke up. She was rubbing her sleepy eyes before she held out her hands to ask for cuddles.“Hey, Daddy’s here to visit you.”Philip walked over with a smile on his face. He carried Mila and started playing with her. They looked very happy.After a while, Anne walked in. When she saw Mr. Philip, a smile appeared on her face as she asked, “Mr. Philip, why are you here today?”Philip was playing with Mila’s toys. He smiled as he answered her, “I’m just here to take a look.”Then, he remembered something. He asked, “Oh right, how’s your brother?”After he said that, Anne walked over and knelt in front of Philip. She sobbed
Public clamor could obscure the actual truth, and Philip was unable to give a convincing explanation in self-defense.Philip roared, “Enough!”After he said that, he slammed the door shut. He looked at Martha who was still hurling abuses at Anne and asked, “Martha, what the hell do you want?”Martha’s mouth was dry. She took a sip of water and continued screaming, “What do I want? You’re doing this immoral thing and you’re not allowing me to talk about it? Let me tell you, this is not over. I’m going to call Wynnie now!”After she said that, she took out her phone to pretend to call Wynn. Then, she looked at Philip and said loudly, “I’m going to call her now! I’m calling now! If Wynnie knows about this, there will surely be a divorce on the way!”Would Martha dare to make this call?Of course not.She already knew that Philip was the one who bought First Palace.If she decided to make this small matter into something big, she would not get any advantages.She had to get her ha
“That rabbit has always shown up alone, so I don’t know who he is.” Rabbit said in embarrassment, “I know who that is. He’s none other than our grandmaster.” Although Rabbit had lost most of his memories, he remembered that he had a grandmaster who had a tuft of black fur on his head. His grandmaster was very strong, so he was always picking fights everywhere. If Rabbit was not mistaken, his grandmaster had tried every means to capture the water monster so that it could protect this place for him. “Your grandmaster is quite capable to have caught this water monster alive.” Philip could sense the water monster’s resentment and felt helpless about it. He thought that the grandmaster was quite inhumane. “Are you talking about me?” Before Philip could find out more, a voice suddenly rang from the side. Philip and the others turned around curiously and saw a white rabbit looking at them. Philip wondered if this was the so-called grandmaster they had been talking about. T
The water monster did not expect its army to be so weak that they could not withstand Philip’s attacks at all. It thought they could put up a fight, but Philip destroyed them easily. “That's not something I can control,” the water monster said helplessly. It could not expose the person behind him. “The person behind me is a force to be reckoned with, a powerful member of the rabbit family. Although I’m now under their control and I hate them to the core, I have no choice but to give in to them.” Philip said, “In that case, why don’t you tell me your story?” Philip was curious about this matter. After looking at Rabbit, the water monster chose to remain silent as if this matter was unspeakable. “Just speak your mind. This rabbit won’t do anything to you,” Philip said with a smile. Philip knew that the rabbit family was keeping a secret, but Rabbit had lost his memory and could not recall the past. After seeing Philip's reaction, Rabbit seemed a little conflicted as if wo
The many people in the group had to deal with a water monster each. The monsters were made of water, so no number of attacks caused any damage to them. Some monsters could even reproduce after being split into two. Philip frowned at this scene. Indeed, they were a force to be reckoned with. Philip and his team were dealing with the water monsters while Rabbit was bickering with the main guy. As the argument grew louder, the water monsters that Philip and his team were dealing with became more powerful. The water monsters appeared out of nowhere, but they were very strong. “We have to get rid of that guy or there'll be no end to these water monsters!” Philip was annoyed by this powerful opponent. They could not hurt him, which was annoying as hell. Aslan was caught up in the fight too. “These attacks of yours are just tickling me!” Aslan mocked the opponent. The next moment, the water monster waved its hand and froze Aslan on the spot. Aslan never dreamed that the oppo
Under normal circumstances, this monster would never get the better of Aslan. “Cut the crap. I’m not targeting you but this ugly rabbit. I’ll have fun with you after I deal with this rabbit!” The water monster stretched out its hand and grabbed Rabbit. To everyone, it looked like a gush of water rushing toward Rabbit. At this time, Rabbit chose the smartest and safest option, which was to hide behind Philip. Hiding behind Philip not only ensured his safety but also allowed Philip to help him deal with this thing. “Philip, I just recalled. This guy has a grudge against my rabbit family. It was captured and imprisoned in this place because it insulted my predecessor. This place is my family’s forbidden land!” Rabbit said excitedly, recalling many things. Philip nodded. He knew that this place was definitely related to Rabbit but did not expect that it was his family’s forbidden land. Thinking of this, he was full of expectation. A forbidden land should contain various treasur
However, the water gave no reaction. Every attack felt like punching cotton. Not only was it not effective, but Aslan was also all the more furious. “Philip, you need to think of a way for me. That thing is bullying me.” As a monster beast, Aslan’s thinking was inflexible and forthright. “Don’t be hasty. Just let it be. I want to see what that thing is up to.” Philip simply stared at the pool of stagnant water, which clearly had some intelligence. “Something’s wrong in the northeast. I seem to hear a slight breathing sound,” Philip said to Lyle. Lyle was a more cautious person. With his acute senses, he should be able to find something. Hearing Philip’s remark, Lyle looked in the northeast direction. Sure enough, a pool of water was undulating as if it were breathing, which proved that it was a living creature. “Hehe, you saw right through me.” At this moment, a figure appeared in front of everyone. Philip frowned at the sneaky guy. That creature was made of water, neit
The grandmaster frowned. He believed Abba because Abba was the current head of the family and had an extraordinary status. “Some bad guys came along with him. They're the ones who tricked him into betraying the family. They're so strong that I couldn’t trap them. I had no choice but to let them enter our territory!” Abba added fuel to the fire, describing Philip and the others as heinous villains while he was the hero trying to protect the family. If Avon, also known as Rabbit, knew about this, he would probably pass out in anger. “They're probably trying to pass through the level right now. They’ll see you once they succeed, so I hope that you won't believe his lies. He has betrayed us and is no longer a member of the rabbit family!” Abba had achieved his objective. He knew that the grandmaster would never believe Avon again. “Fine, leave this to me. I know what I should do next.” The grandmaster fell into deep thought, perhaps thinking about how to deal with Avon. Abb
“Forget it. Everything is good as long as you’re happy. Anyway, we have to watch out. Those people are a force to be reckoned with!” The rabbit commander knew how stubborn Abba was, so he stopped talking after giving him some advice. Abba might beat him if he continued. Although they had been here many times before, neither of them knew where the grandmaster was. They could only wander aimlessly in the safe zone. The grandmaster was very mischievous and would play tricks on them from time to time. While Abba was searching aimlessly, a figure appeared in front of him. “Little one, you’re so nice to visit me so soon!” The figure that appeared was the grandmaster Abba was looking for. The grandmaster stroked his beard as he smiled at Abba. “Did you bring the things I wanted? I told you to bring me some pretty little maids. You must have forgotten my request!” Seeing Abba alone, the grandmaster sighed helplessly and seemed disappointed from the bottom of his heart. “Grand
“He had no interest in that position because he was powerless to do anything. Everything turned out this way because he had no ability in this area! Without the ability to rule the world or talent for practice, he has no right to inherit the family!” Abba hated his brother very much. He argued with the rabbit commander unhappily. “If I could trick him back then, I can do it again now. I'll find a way to send him away, but before that, I want to find out what brought him back!” Many years ago, Rabbit was imprisoned for a long time because of his family’s betrayal. Fortunately, he brought a few rabbit maids to keep him company. However, no one could bear being imprisoned in the same place for such a long time. Later, Rabbit met Philip, who rescued him, or he would still be imprisoned in that place until now. Abba was curious to find out how his useless brother escaped. After all, his curse was very effective. Under normal circumstances, Rabbit could not escape that place un
“Don’t you find the monsters annoying? They deserved to be beaten!” Everyone held a half-dead monster in hand. Philip had no idea whether he should sympathize or ridicule these miserable monsters. Soon, the monsters merged into one. “Congratulations on passing the first level. Please proceed to the next round.” Philip frowned at the monster’s words. Why did he feel like he was playing a game? It seemed that their actions had been under watch the moment they entered the light. It was a very unpleasant feeling. Philip hated being under other people’s control. At this time, Rabbit hopped to Philip's side. It was obviously not trapped in that mysterious space just now. “Rabbit, I feel that this place has something to do with you. You'd better recall what’s going on or we’ll beat you up!” Philip waved his fist fiercely. Rabbit’s ability to avoid the ordeal proved that he had an inseparable relationship with this place. Philip did not care whether Rabbit had lost his memories.
