“Young Master Hane, you must think it over carefully. Melody Zander is Theo Zander’s daughter, after all. If we do this, we’re going up against Theo!” Another rich second-generation reminded Kenneth.“What are you afraid of? I’m the young master of the Hane family! Theo’s nothing but a piece of sh*t!” Kenneth said angrily.Back to the private room.Obviously, Philip had become the center of attraction.At this moment, all the other rich second-generation in the private room dared not look him in the eye. That man was a lunatic!Marilyn Chester’s face was pale, and she could not speak for a long time.Initially, she wanted to use her birthday as an excuse to invite some good friends she had made in the past to celebrate. She was using this to create an opportunity for Melody and Kenneth.That was because she knew Kenneth would not be attracted to ordinary women, and only someone like Melody would capture his interest.If only she could have settled this matter for Kenneth proper
North Street of Riverdale.This was the liveliest area in Riverdale—bars, nightclubs, entertainment centers, and foot spas. In short, any form of entertainment that one could think of would be found here!This place was one of the areas that were not governed because there was a mixture of different forces and underground operations intertwined. Everything was utter chaos!Philip got out of the car and felt a little lost. Although it was his first time here, he clearly felt that it was completely different from the downtown area of Riverdale!The girls on the side of the roads wore more revealing clothes than the other!The street was also filled with drunkards and youths wasting their time away, coming in and out from various clubs and KTVs.Philip frowned as he stood on the street and looked all around him. He muttered to himself, “Are we supposed to meet in this kind of place?”Right at this moment, a shrill sneer came from behind Philip!“Philip Clarke, we meet again! I did
“Four Dixon?”Leopard turned his head around and saw an old acquaintance.He glanced at the men behind Four and laughed in a self-deprecating manner. “I didn’t expect the little gangster who used to mess around in the streets back then to have men of his own now. It’s not bad.”Right from the start, he maintained a proud demeanor.“Leopard, you didn’t notify us that you were coming out. We could’ve picked you up.”Four was not angry but said cheerfully instead.“No need. I’m here for one person today.”Leopard said coldly, “You can take this person away, but his limbs must be broken first. This is what I’ve promised Young Master Hane.”As he spoke, an intimidating aura exuded from Leopard.“Leopard, I hope you won’t get involved in this matter. Nowadays, it’s different from the past. Riverdale is not the same as what it was like in your era anymore. Things are no longer decided by the number of men we have or if we can fight without the fear of death. In today’s society, it’s
Suddenly, a figure stepped in front of Philip!Rick Davenport had appeared!With a flash of movement, he took one step back, launched a flying kick with his right leg, and directly hit Leopard’s elbow!Clank!The bayonet in Leopard’s hand flew out in an instant and fell heavily on the ground with a loud clang!Leopard was shocked. He never expected this ordinary-looking boy to have such a capable bodyguard with him!The opponent’s strength was powerful!Rick just stared at Leopard coldly, eyes filled with indolence as if he did not take the other person seriously.With a twitch of his eyes, Leopard reacted quickly. He clenched his fists, gathered strength in his legs, and darted out. The pair of iron fists carried the power akin to a tiger’s might as they aimed for Rick’s head!Rick raised his leg and kicked sideways with great force!Bam!Instantly, a figure flew like a kite that had its strings cut and crashed heavily into a night market stall at the side of the street!R
“Ten, nine, eight, three…” Philip counted leisurely.“No, wait, why did it jump to three all of a sudden?” Kenneth was stunned and panicked.“Oh, because I want to.”Philip replied calmly, tapped the iron rod in his hand, and continued to count, “Two…”“Okay! Three million it is! I agree!”Although it was expensive, Kenneth was a sensible person. When there was life, there was hope. He could only reluctantly agree.“Heh, Young Master Hane is really a smart man! Next, let’s talk about your third leg. One price, ten million!”Philip patted Kenneth’s shoulder.Kenneth immediately cried out, “Ten… Ten million! It was only three million just now, how did it become ten million now?!”Philip waved his hand and said, “Is ten million expensive? I think it’s quite reasonable.”“No, I don’t agree! You’re jacking up the price!”Kenneth shook his head promptly. The asking price was too much. Although he started a company with his father’s support and made a lot of money over the years, i
Philip’s uncle?Wynn was taken aback for a moment before she smiled politely and courteously. “Uncle… Uncle Tim, please have a seat, I…”Wynn did not know what to say, so she was a little incoherent. She was at a loss about what to do.Tim took everything in his eyes and smiled kindly. “Has Philip never mentioned me before?”“Yeah.”Wynn smiled awkwardly and brushed her hair to the back of her ears.Philip actually had an uncle. She had never heard him mention that before.Also, looking at this uncle’s poise, he was not a simple person. He even had bodyguards following him around.Of course, Philip was the young master of Clarke Group from Capital City. His family background was not so simple.However, what was the purpose of this uncle’s sudden visit?At Wynn’s expression, Tim guessed what Wynn must be thinking, so he said, “Don’t worry. I’m just here to visit you. Philip has worked hard to keep everything from us. The little girl has suffered much at such a young age.”Whi
Wynn stood up and stared at Philip with eyes wide open. Tears were forming at the corners.He finally confessed.“How long were you planning on keeping it from me?” Wynn asked angrily.Philip hugged her waist and said, “Not for long. I already planned to tell you in the next few days. It’s because too many things have been happening at home recently. I couldn’t tell you everything. I thought that once I’ve settled everything, I’d bring you and Mila home.”Back to Arcadia Island. Philip did not tell her the entire truth.Wynn assumed it was the Clarke family in Capital City.“Really? Do you need help?” Wynn asked, worried about Philip.Her husband was getting more mysterious now, always doing things that she was not aware of.Philip touched her hair fondly and smiled tenderly as he said, “It’s fine, I can handle it. But don’t tell your parents about my identity. I’m afraid they will…”Wynn naturally understood what he meant and said in mock anger, “You still dare to bring thi
“Slap her mouth!”Tim ordered coldly. The chill reflected in his eyes was as fathomless as 3,000 feet of ice!No one could insult the Clarke family, and no one could insult the future heir of the Clarke family!Hark!Two burly bodyguards behind Tim walked out. Without another word, one man dragged Martha, who was struggling and hissing, from behind Charles and held her in a death grip.“You, what are you doing? This is my home. If you dare to touch me, I’ll call the police!”Martha got a fright. She was struggling and kicking out wildly.However.The other person waved his hand!Smack!A crisp slap resounded throughout the hall of the villa.Now, Martha glared at Tim and shouted, “You dare to let someone beat me? Do you know where this is? This is Longford Park, the territory of the Longford family! This villa is mine! I’ll call the police to arrest you!” Martha yelled like a shrew, her cheeks red and swollen. “Continue,” Tim leaned back on the sofa and said coldly. Sm
