The company's staff, who were onlooking, were now staring with their eyes widened. They covered their mouths as they looked at this sudden scene!'How dare that deadbeat, good-for-nothing Philip lay a hand on Beacon Pharmaceutical's vice-chairman?''Houston is the young master of the Michaels family in Golden City!''The Michaels family has a lot of power and connections in Riverdale!''Isn't he just asking for a death wish?'Wynn was also shocked and almost lost her cool. Philip's behavior was totally beyond her expectations.'Why doesn't he think about the consequences?'He's really getting more and more unpredictable lately.'When Houston came back to his senses from the shock, Philip rolled up his sleeves and looked determined to set this straight. He said, "Mr. Michaels, that's very hurtful of you to say! I must have a word with you today!"What’s equality? What does society care about now? It's equality! No job is noble or humble. You can be a business owner or you can a
Fabio wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and was secretly relieved. Fortunately, Chairwoman Johnston was here. Otherwise, he would have been unable to cope with the situation.Philip shrugged with indifference. Just before he could answer, Houston, who was in a state of rage, pointed at him and yelled, "Wynn! Do you know what your good-for-nothing husband just did to me? He hit his boss in public! Is this the employee we hired? Is this your assistant? Who gave him the nerve? How dare a deadbeat do that!"Wynn frowned a little while her expression was cold. She icily opened her mouth and said, "We're at the company, Mr. Michaels. Please call me Chairwoman Johnston!"Also, he's my husband, not a piece of trash! If you say that again, not only will my husband hit you, I’ll also hit you."Wynn said coldly.Houston was stunned and looked at the crowd around them. He scolded them for onlooking, then gritted his teeth and said, "All right! Chairwoman Johnston! As vice-chairman, I propo
Philip's eyes were cold. He sent a text message on his phone and slipped it back into his pocket. He glanced at the Cadillac behind them, gave it a thought, and followed them into the car.Intercontinental Hotel, Presidential Suite.Philip followed the two bodyguards into the private room and saw eight burly men in it. They were all dressed in black suits and had an icy aura like they had been through a lot. It was frightening.At the head of the round table sat a plump, middle-aged man tucking into a lamb hot pot.Wynn sat beside him with her arms folded over her chest. Her icy expression looked slightly anxious.Philip speculated. He saw through them at a glance.The eight people looked like martial artists, so their fighting skills should be good.As for the man who was eating hot pot, he might look plump, but there was something evil in his every move.'He's a tough guy!'However, it was all nothing to Philip.'A useless bum?'I'm sorry, I'm not one.'He did not waste a
Mitch scoffed. He pinned a sinister gaze on Philip as he spoke, "I've heard rumors of your madness before, you little sh*t. Can't say I'm surprised, but there's no way I'm letting you leave this room alive." With the same indifferent expression on his face, Philip held the silver chopsticks, a knife, and a fork in his hands. Frost oozed off him in waves! Squinting his eyes at Mitch, the corner of Philip's mouth stretched to reveal what one would associate with the smile of death. "I don't know about me leaving the room alive, but you’re definitely not leaving the room unscathed!" With that, Philip threw the knife in his hand, lodging it into Mitch's shoulder in the blink of an eye!Brutal! Mitch's shoulder was already covered with a sheen of bright red by the time it dawned on him what had happened! Clutching his arm, Mitched staggered backward and roared with a menacing expression, "Kill him! Cut off his hands and legs!"Philip was too fast. All the eight bodyguards in the
"I thought you were looking for Clarke Group? Well then, I, your husband, am precisely your knight in shining armor. I'll help you deal with any troubles and problems you'll have."Philip smiled, reaching out to brush the tip of Wynn's delicate nose.Bursting into a puff of laughter, Wynn blinked as she spoke, "You're no longer as transparent as you were to me, Philip. Since when did you learn to do this? It's getting a little scary."Philip rubbed the back of his head. "I picked it up from someone back then at home. That's all, nothing much.""Is that so?"Wynn asked as her eyes shone, looking at Philip.Philip smiled shyly in response....At the same time, Mitch Potter and his gang of bodyguards arrived at the entrance of the Intercontinental Hotel. Drenched in blood, he was a flustering sight to see!Gravely injured was the master of the fraternity belonging to the top five underground forces of South River District. Even Theo Zander had to pay a degree of respect to the
Philip furrowed his eyebrows, displeasure brewing ice-cold in his chest. In front of him were 30 to 40 men with over ten multi-purpose vehicles stopped before the hotel's entrance.The Andersons of the South River District had gone too far.Philip was infuriated. One Beacon Pharmaceutical and one investment of a billion yuan, and now he had to deal with this insufferable aftermath.Philip knew that none of this would have occurred without the help of someone more powerful behind the scenes.30 to 40 men, each a thug with a bloodthirsty look in their eyes. They were either topless so that their tattoos were visible or clutching metal rods in their hands.It had been many years since the last local gang fight in Riverdale, let alone an intercity one.Especially fights where one of the parties all had 'fraternity' tattooed in red on their backs!"Holy sh*t! That's the South River District's fraternity! Why are they here in Riverdale?""Oh, God, what’s happening? Fraternity? The on
Mitch’s expression sunk instantly. A sinister glare was sent Noah’s way as he smiled. “Oh? Does Brother Noah not believe in my capabilities? I have so many members with me, how can I not get my hands on a worthless scum who feeds off his wife?”“No no, you’ve misunderstood me, Sir Mitch. I brought this man to deal with Philip Clarke myself. But now that I see Sir Mitch has already made a move, then there’s naturally no need to bring him out. I simply wish to introduce you to him, Sir Mitch. Perhaps he’ll learn a thing or two from you!”Noah explained, pointing at the passenger seat in his car.The back seat windows rolled down to reveal a man in a baseball cap. A large gash marked one half of his face, leaving him with an unsettling aura at night!The man’s side profile overwhelmed those who saw him while his gaze was fixed on Philip Clarke who was at the hotel’s entrance. Perhaps it was the pull of another strong bird with the same feathers!“Who’s that? He looks even more powe
Men were all bloodthirsty beings, especially at the prompt of spilling fresh blood. A moment of silence engulfed the thugs, but it was soon broken by their howls. Who were they to feel fear? Especially when there were 30 to 40 of them! Surely they would be able to kill him, right?They ran forward anyway, effectively disregarding the words Philip had said. Philip scoffed and lifted his hand to slash downward, landing a gash on two thugs who were dashing in front! Wynn stood behind the revolving door as she watched the man with a piandao in one hand. His usually bright eyes were cloudy and hooded with anger! Unable to calm herself, her chest swarmed with an indescribable feeling. Her husband was this impressive...For a moment, Wynn realized she could no longer see through Philip Clarke, a rich man who was also exceptional at fighting! She would never forget this scene for the rest of her life. Philip dashed out with a piandao in his hand, leaving a bloodied but clear p
“This tea is simply amazing. I’m surprised that Philip is lucky enough to find this treasure!” “By the way, why is Philip alone? Where's that rabbit?” Everyone looked around but saw no signs of the rabbit and had to give up. In the end, only a mouthful of tea was left in the pot. After much deliberation, they decided to give it to the patriarch. After all, it was a rare treasure! They quickly tied Philip up. Once Philip lost his freedom, they had nothing to worry about. They wanted to take credit for their finding and let the family know about this rare treasure.… Meanwhile, Cameron was in his room, thinking about how to carry out the competition. He had just finished talking with Ronan and was in a good mood. He was surprised by Ronan’s attitude. Ronan did not hold a grudge against them and desperately wanted to join their family, which was simply too good to be true. More importantly, Ronan was strong enough to win the competition for them. Cameron did not care whet
At this moment, Philip noticed something unusual and realized that someone had sneaked into his yard. He was amused that someone dared to mess with him. “Surround this area while I poison him. After he’s dead, don’t forget to bring the rabbit along with us. It’s best if we can figure out the rabbit’s secret. If not, just silence the rabbit too!” The person taking the lead explained the plan. He was none other than Sadie’s husband. For the sake of his position in the family and his son, he had to take the risk. Philip was enjoying his premium spiritual tea, and that fragrance could not be concealed at all. Very soon, the intruders smelled the fragrance and followed their noses to find the source. “Do you smell something fragrant? I feel that my strength has improved after a whiff of this smell!” “I feel refreshed with just one whiff as if my ailment has been relieved. That ailment has been bothering me for years. This is amazing!” Everyone was excited as they tracked the s
Cameron never thought that he would lose to a rabbit in an argument. After a brief silence, he finally decided to ignore the matter for the time being. Since the treasures were in Rabbit’s hands, he had to talk to Ronan about the competition. “Ronan, come with me. I want to tell you about the competition. Your friend can stay. We’ll treat him with the utmost courtesy!” Cameron invited Ronan kindly while signaling to everyone. As long as Ronan was not around, they could attack and even kill Philip on the spot. Philip would be useless once they figured out Rabbit’s secret. If Ronan asked, they could say that Philip decided to leave. Anyway, they had all sorts of excuses to take care of this. Ronan glanced at Philip and walked to the conference hall. Ronan knew that he had to deal with these people himself. Philip was only here to give him courage. Philip gave him a reassuring look and returned to the house. He was interested in the competition, so he wanted to figure out
“Are you talking about this rabbit? He’s not my pet. He belongs to my friend.” Ronan shrugged. He wanted such a pet, but he was not good enough. Hearing that, Cameron's face turned pale. Although the rabbit was an additional benefit, he never thought that he would fail to get it. Cameron glared at Philip. He did not have a good impression of Philip. Philip looked like a troublemaker. He suspected that Philip had influenced Ronan into making things difficult for them. Cameron wanted to drive Philip away, but Ronan abruptly said that this matter was related to Philip. Before he could weigh the pros and cons, Cameron decided to hide his emotions. At least, he could not reveal his dislike for Philip. “I see. Your friend seems like a casual practitioner. Why don't he consider joining our family? For your sake, I can give him the same treatment and allow the two of you to take part in the competition as representatives of the family. I believe you’ll do your best and won’t let me
At this time, Rabbit hopped to Philip's side. “Philip, I was out for a walk yesterday and heard some rumors. They’ll be holding a competition among the humans soon, and all major families and forces will send some contestants for the fight. “Either a family or a force that is in charge of an area can join the competition. I heard that the Claude family is taking part.” Hearing this, and combined with their reaction, Philip guessed something. They probably wanted to trick Ronan into participating in the competition, which was why they were approaching him so enthusiastically. “There’s more.” Rabbit smiled and leaned forward, clearly asking for a beating. Philip saw Rabbit’s reaction and hit his face. “Just spit it out. Stop messing around!” Rabbit chuckled and said, “I heard that the Claude family is negotiating a business deal, and the prerequisite is that Ronan must participate in the competition and win first place. Although I don't know why, that’s the only condition the
Everyone was dumbfounded. No one thought that Ronan would take action without paying any heed to them. Cameron panicked and ordered his men to stop Ronan, “Guards, take action! You have to stop Ronan!” His face turned pale, and he wished that the guards could kill Ronan. However, he suddenly remembered the deal between the businessman and himself. “Wait, don’t kill him. I want him alive. I need him for something important!” Cameron shouted nervously as if he was sure that his guards would defeat Ronan. Other than the guards, other family members also stepped forward. They wanted to show off their strength. Seeing this, Philip waved to Ronan. He would take action if required. Ronan waved his hand indifferently in response. He did not need Philip’s help for now. He was strong enough to take care of it. At this time, Rabbit appeared drowsily. Rabbit led a carefree life, and Philip always let him be, so he was an idle rabbit. After Cameron and the others saw Rabbit, their e
Ronan became more confident after the chat with Philip. If anyone dared to mess with him, he would not hesitate to teach them a good lesson. Cameron looked around but did not see Rabbit. He was worried but went straight to the point. “My child, after all these years, have you finally decided to return to the family?” Cameron smiled as he attempted the emotional approach as if Ronan had lived outside over the years because of his own decision. Hearing that, Ronan coughed and nearly threw up. Cameron was really good at blaming him. “What do you mean? Did I ask you to kick me out of the house?” Ronan's eyes flashed with anger. As a weak and powerless child back then, he was kicked out of the house right after his mother’s death. That feeling was really humiliating. All his grievances over the years exploded at this point. He could not tolerate these hypocritical people anymore. Cameron noticed Ronan’s reaction and knew that it was bad. This matter was out of his control. Ronan
“Since you've accepted my things, you should…” Cameron rubbed his hands excitedly, looking at Rabbit smugly and expectantly. His men looked at Rabbit in delight. It would be great if they could get storage space. Rabbit shook his head in disdain. “What are you thinking? Do you think you’re worthy of me? You don’t even have a measly storage space. Who are you to bargain with me?” Rabbit kicked the nearest person away. “Don’t bother me again or that’ll be your outcome!” He hopped back into the house. He was not afraid that they would mess with him. Cameron was shocked that Rabbit would go back on his word after taking their things. He was furious. Those were the treasures of the family. It would be a disaster if they lost them. However, it was clearly not the right time to dwell on it. Cameron decided to talk to Rabbit again tomorrow. He had to talk to Ronan anyway. It would be best if he could fool them. “Let’s get some rest for the night and talk about it tomorrow morning
Cameron persuaded Rabbit excitedly. In his opinion, he was halfway to success. Rabbit nodded. “Give me what you have for now. At least show me your sincerity. You should know that the guy inside offered me a high price!” Rabbit fooled Cameron. He wanted to know what Cameron could come up with. Just crystals alone would be a letdown. Hearing that, Cameron waved to his men, signaling them to take out all the good things from the warehouse, at least to fool Rabbit for the time being. His men reluctantly went to the warehouse and took out all the treasures they had collected. Anyway, it was just for show and would not really be given to the rabbit, so they did not object. It would be a great deal if these treasures could attract a guardian beast. Rabbit nodded with satisfaction at these things. He waved his hand, and everything vanished from those people’s hands. Everyone was shocked and wondered what was going on. There was no such thing as storage space in this world. They ha
