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
“Really?”Martha’s eyes grew wide instantly. She was delighted as she kept praising Philip. “Oh, Philip, I was blind back then. I didn’t know you have rich parents. This is great! I’m going to treat you like my biological son. Come back with Wynnie tonight and I’ll make you both dinner.”Martha looked like a vile person who just had her dreams come true. She would become rich in just one night.The two of them walked out and went back to Longford Park. Philip contacted George beforehand, so everything went smoothly.When Martha saw her name on the certificate of property ownership, she was beaming.“Mom, you should go home first. I still need to take care of some things.”Philip left after he said that.Martha watched as Philip left. She rolled her eyes and muttered, “Hehe, do you think you can flatter me with just a name on a certificate? I want to see just how rich the Clarkes are.”How would it be possible for Martha to call it quits before she emptied all of Philip’s assets
Under the spotlight, Philip strode over to Wynn.Suddenly, hurried footsteps approached him. A bodyguard in a black suit stopped Philip hurriedly. He bowed and said deferentially. “Young Master, Madam Wallis is asking you to go back to Cirrus Manor. Master Tim is here.”Master Tim?Philip’s heart stopped. He turned around to look at Wynn under the spotlight and handed the rose to the server. He said, “I’ll be back in a bit. Tell her to wait for me.”After he said that, Philip turned around and ran out of Sky Garden Restaurant.A black Bentley sped on the main highway of Riverdale. It crossed Scarlet Bridge and headed into the mountain that was lush with greenery. Then, it arrived at Cirrus Manor.Philip could not calm himself after a long time. He frowned. Master Tim was back.Why was he here?Did something happen at home?The car stopped at the entrance of the manor. There were two rows of bodyguards in black suits along the entrance.The atmosphere was solemn, and Philip co
It was just like the family conscription order the previous time. Philip had to go through George and even asked for Giada’s advice.Even if they successfully maneuvered the military forces eventually, they would still be met with protests from the uncles and the dissatisfaction of the world-class seniors.However, now that he had the Sovereignty Seal, Philip would be able to maneuver the troops all he wanted and no one would dare say anything about it.That was Tim’s power and status.This was the power of the Clarkes.No country in the world would dare to go against the order of the owner of this thumb ring.When they saw this thumb ring, it would be as if they saw the Lord himself.Of course, there were three Sovereignty Seals.They were mutually restrictive.As for the remaining two, one was with Giada and the other one was with Philip’s biological mother, Charlotte Larson.However, Charlotte’s thumb ring was gone in that accident.Now, everyone only knew about the remai
Hudson smiled and did not say anything.The two of them parted ways, and Wynn went back to the villa. Her brain was occupied by what Hudson said just now.‘The person I keep seeing? I know him?’Philip flashed across Wynn’s mind. Could it be him?A lot of things had happened lately. When Wynn tried to connect the dots, she felt like she did not understand Philip at all.Who was her husband? What was he hiding?When she thought about that, she opened her bag and took out the bank card Philip gave her.She decided to check the bank balance tomorrow.One more thing.Wynn rummaged through her drawers and found the gold card that was imprinted with the word ‘Wallis’. It was given to her by Giada.Giada had told her that as long as she took this card to any shop with the Wallises’ name, she could find Giada.Wynn felt conflicted. It was not that she did not trust Philip, but too many things had been happening recently. She needed to verify this.Especially what Hudson had said to
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
