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
When Wynn heard this, she felt uneasy. She asked, “Mom, how can you think of Philip like this? Don’t you know what kind of person Philip is?”“What kind of person is he?”Martha rolled her eyes sarcastically and said earnestly, “Wynnie, you won’t go wrong if you trust me. I went through this before. Philip is definitely a playboy. You have to prepare yourself. Let’s not talk about other things. We’ll just talk about this villa. We have to get our hands on this villa. That way, the three years you’re married to him won’t be a waste. You gave him a child and you have another one coming. If he decides to be unfaithful in the future and divorce you, what will you do?”“Mom, please leave. Can you stop spewing nonsense?”Wynn was extremely annoyed. Her mother really had the guts to say anything.After she said that, she took her clothes to the toilet.Martha was fuming. She sat in the bedroom and poured the milk into the rubbish bin. She scolded Wynn. “You thankless wench, you don’t un
After the unadorned and heavy door was pushed open, Philip turned around and saw a figure.The man had a red and golden cane with a dragon’s head. He was over 70 years old and was slightly hunchbacked. His eyes were squinted, and there was a slight smile on his face.He stood at the door like a mountain. Everyone in the hall did not dare to breathe in his presence.Even if he had restrained his temperament quite well, the reputation and talent in his bones were able to make Philip frown.Jack Wallis.The current person in charge of the Wallis family. Giada’s father.This person was extremely conceited and arrogant.He spent 40 years making the Wallises into the biggest family. They were just below the Clarkes.This person was also super ambitious.Behind Jack was a middle-aged man who looked about 40 to 50 years old. His hair was grey, and he was wearing a pair of black glasses. He held a briefcase in his hand and had a black suit on with a tie. He kept nodding his head, but i
Tim sat on the sofa and threw his head back in laughter. “Giada, you Wallises are always so impatient. How can you achieve something big in the future?”Philip sat at one side the entire time and did not utter a word.He knew his Uncle Tim was the one standing up for him now.Giada’s face fell, and the corner of her lips twitched. She wanted so badly to kill Tim now. That way, the Clarkes would have one less person in charge.However, she did not dare to.She had restraining fear about the power in Tim’s hands.Of course, Tim also had restraining fear about Giada’s power after so many years.The two of them fought openly and maneuvered covertly for so many years. Other than that, they would also restrict each other.“Alright, we’re all family.”Jack finally opened his mouth. He sat at the main sofa with both of his hands resting on his dragon head cane. He looked at Philip and asked with sudden interest, “This must be Roger’s son, Philip. He’s outstanding indeed. He looks very
“Wynn, why did you come looking for me so suddenly?”At the same time, Giada walked into the guest hall with a gentle smile on her face. She stood in front of Wynn and obstructed her view.Giada looked like another woman compared to when she was in the hall.Wynn saw the two figures vaguely before they disappeared into the night and out of the manor.“Aunt Giada,” said Wynn politely.Giada grabbed her arm and sat down on the sofa. She asked her servants to prepare some desserts.Over here, Philip and Tim had already exited the manor. Philip turned around suspiciously. He thought he heard Wynn’s name being called just now.He shook his head, opened the car door, and got in.Back to Wynn. She was still feeling uneasy, especially when she was facing Giada.This woman was Philip’s stepmother, and Philip had some misunderstandings with her.“Wynnie, come, freshly made desserts. It’s a specialty in the South River District.”Giada smiled warmly as she picked up a slice of green ca
“Philip, is there anything you’re hiding from me?”Wynn asked and looked intensely at Philip.Philip approached her and held her in his arms. He smiled and said, “No. What are you thinking? I’ve told you everything I need to.”Philip was betting that Giada had not said anything to her.He knew she would not tell Wynn anything.If that was the case, he could bring Wynn and Mila back home in a right and proper manner.As for why he refused to tell Wynn his real identity, Philip had his own considerations as well.Wynn came from an ordinary family. She did not have the foundation nor a huge family as her backing. If Philip revealed who he was or if he brought them home, the Wallises and the other powers might want to take action against them.In this world, the Wallises were not the only family eyeing the Clarkes.The situation now was like a tug of war. The end of the rope with more people would most likely be the winning side.Once Philip broke this equilibrium, the chain reac
Martha could not bring herself to fight back and be unreasonable in front of Giada. This woman was too overbearing!She was only ferocious in her own territory. She would only be aggressive toward Philip.If she was with an outsider, she would be so cowardly that she would not even dare to let out a fart.Martha was petrified, especially when she was faced with an overbearing woman like Giada.“I-I…”Martha stammered and clutched her face. She did not know what to say.Slap!Giada slapped her again. She said sternly, “Martha Yates, I’m warning you. Get rid of all of your little tricks. Do you think the Clarkes are weak? Did you forget what I warned you the last time?”Martha was such a commoner. She really forgot about the pain once the scar was healed.She was the most shameless kind of person on earth.“I-I didn’t…”Martha clutched her face and lowered her head. Her entire body was trembling. She did not dare to look Giada in the eye.Giada peered at her coldly and walked
“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.
