At the press conference, the bald guy held a baseball bat in his hand as he sneered and walked toward Wynn. “Haha, it seems that you won’t admit it without a good beating.” As the words fell, he aimed a kick directly at Wynn’s stomach! With this kick, Wynn would most definitely suffer a miscarriage! Martha screamed hysterically from the side, “You beast! Stop it!” Wynn vaguely saw the other party’s big feet kicking toward her. Her maternal instincts exploded as she tried her best to protect her belly. ‘Philip, are you still not here? ‘Our baby’s in danger.’ A string of glittering tears dripped from the corner of Wynn's eyes. Suddenly! An anxious figure rushed in at the door, roaring with terrible anger, “Stop it! Are you asking for death?!” At that moment, Philip rushed into the hall and saw Wynn on her knees after being beaten miserably. At the sight of the despair in her eyes and the blood on her lower body, Philip completely lost his rationale! Wynn, baby!
At the same time. At the door, a figure appeared. When he entered through the door, he shouted angrily, “Who dares to touch Mr. Clarke?!” Theo Zander! Theo Zander had appeared! He quickly deployed manpower to gather all the men nearby. He knew that Mr. Clarke was angry this time! He feared there would be a huge wave in Riverdale! The appearance of Theo naturally attracted everyone's attention. Everyone knew that this was the underground king of Riverdale. He must not be provoked! Everyone watched as Theo approached Philip, bending down before him and saying respectfully, “Mr. Clarke, I’ve gathered 60 men. The venue is under control. Other men are on their way here.” Philip glanced indifferently at the dumbfounded Houston and the group of punks. He said solemnly, “Tonight, no one can leave! If anything happens to my wife or the baby in her stomach, they’ll be buried at the end of the night!” After that, Philip carried Wynn and dashed out of the hall. Theo persona
Philip’s heart thumped when he heard the first half of the sentence. “It was a threatened abortion. They’re both fine at the moment, but your wife is too weak and needs to be hospitalized for observation.” The doctor said mildly, “The subsequent conditioning and antenatal treatment are very important. If something goes wrong, it’s easy to have a miscarriage. You'd better be prepared mentally.” The doctor left as soon as he finished speaking. Philip nodded vigorously in gratitude, then watched Wynn get pushed out of the operating room to be transported directly to the intensive care unit. Theo had arranged for it personally. In the ward, Martha sat on Wynn’s bedside in a considerate manner, holding Wynn’s delicate hand tightly. She said, “Wynnie, I’m here. Don’t be scared. The baby’s okay.” Wynn's eyes were red as she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Philip standing at the door and said weakly, “Phil, why don’t you come in?” As soon as Philip wanted to en
Swoosh! A black commercial vehicle stopped at the entrance. The group of people dragged a man with broken limbs covered in blood and hung him directly on the lamppost in front of the door! After the group left, another group of people rushed out of the eight-story red building, looked at the man covered in blood who was hung up high, and were shocked! Instantly, the entire Golden City was in an uproar! Back to the Shangri-La Hotel, two hours ago. After the incident with the bald guy, Philip’s gaze swept across the hall. Those who thought of protesting just now were now silent! Too ruthless! He was the devil reincarnated! Blake, Houston, and the rest also shook in fear. They did not expect a useless man like Philip to act so harshly. “I’ll ask again, who touched my wife!” Philip roared once more. This time, many people pointed at Shirley who stood beside Houston! Shirley Wellington, who wore high heels and a short skirt, was terrified. She pulled Houston's arm ti
Destroy the Michaels family of Golden City? Blake sneered, his eyes full of menace. He said, “Philip, you’re really brash! Do you think the Michaels family of Golden City can easily be destroyed by a good-for-nothing like you? I’m a rich man worth hundreds of billions! How can you compare with me?” Pretentious! Was he under the impression that knowing Theo Zander was enough? This society was no longer ruled by guns and fists. It was connections and money! “Blake Michaels, you’re very sure of yourself. This is your strength and also your weakness. The Michaels family of Golden City will end in your hands,” Philip said mildly as a trace of chill appeared in his eyes. He had not dealt with the Michaels family because he did not want to alert the enemy. However, Blake did not know what was good for him and kept challenging his limits. He deserved death! Blake laughed, raised his eyebrows, and said, “Very well. I want to see what powerful means you have that can destroy th
Until now, Blake had not connected Philip to this matter. “Five minutes ago,” the voice on the other end said. Five minutes ago? Was that the time when Philip had made the call? Instantly, Blake stared at Philip and asked, “You did this?” As soon as these words were spoken, Blake started dripping cold sweat. The people present also realized that something was wrong! Right at this moment, someone held his phone and exclaimed, “Look at the trending news! The Michaels family of Golden City is currently under investigation. They’re suspected of smuggling, illegal fund-raising, and tax evasion!” “Also, the stocks of Michaels Corp took a plunge and plummeted by 30 percent. They’ve already stopped trading!” “Michaels Corp is suspended pending investigation!” All of a sudden, everyone in the audience looked at their mobile phones, and each piece of news was blasted out like a broadcast! Blake was utterly frantic! He quickly scrolled through his phone. As he read each pi
Giada watched all this calmly, still teasing the Persian cat in her arms while smiling faintly as she said, “Philip, why are you in such a temper?” Philip stood in the hall and was followed by Theo and his men. There was a total of 45 bodyguards in black suits! They were elites all carefully selected by Theo! Despite that, even with these men, Theo was still a little worried. As he could see, all the guards at Cirrus Manor were specially trained professionals! These people could easily take out his men with a flick of their fingers! Even so, Theo would follow Philip without any hesitation. “Giada, are you going to feign ignorance?” Philip's face was covered with frost, and his eyes were ferocious as he stared at the calm Giada. Giada put down the Persian cat and stood up gracefully. She crossed her arms over her chest, the diamond rings and jade bracelets between her hands in full display. She smiled breezily and said, “Philip, I’m your stepmother after all. Is this
Philip silently watched the enraged Giada and said, “Giada, now it’s my turn to negotiate terms with you. Remember, Miguel is on the highest floor of Golden Mansion now, 200 meters up. If he falls, he’ll be crushed.” Giada clenched her fists bitterly and said, “What do you want?” Damn it! She had been too negligent. She did not expect Philip to make early preparations! However, the Wallis family… How could anyone take Miguel away? There was only one explanation! A professional! Half an hour later, Philip left Cirrus Manor. Before he left, Philip walked up to Giada. Smack! A crisp slap was heard in the hall! Giada looked at Philip incredulously, stunned. She covered her cheek with her hand, her expression changing rapidly. Philip actually dared to hit her! “This slap is for Hannah! If you dare mention her name again in front of me, I’ll never let you off, nor will I let the Wallis family off!” Philip said sternly, his eyes reflecting the cold light like a sharp
Carlos thought Philip would do something to him, but Philip simply handed him something he took out of his pocket. “Try practicing this technique.” After Philip handed him the item, he stared at Carlos, waiting for the result. Carlos was relieved to hear it. He had thought Philip was going to do something to him, but it turned out that Philip simply wanted Carlos to try a technique out. Carlos smiled and shook his head. “We can’t practice other techniques different from our own unless someone can make improvements to our existing technique. Only then do we have the chance to learn something new. But do you know how difficult it is to improve a technique?” Carlos smiled helplessly. Their people had been trying to improve their technique forever. After all, the side effects of the technique were simply annoying, but it was easier said than done. Their predecessors had been studying it for years but to no avail. They had no choice but to give up. Now, only one elder was resp
“Since she’s one of your people, she can stay, but don’t try to do anything,” Philip said. Philip glanced at the holy maiden. Before he could say anything else, something appeared in his mind. It was the technique she practiced. Philip had no idea what happened. He had merely glanced at her when her technique appeared in his mind. Although it was weird, Philip did not think it was a bad thing. Instead, he was happy. He knew that it was a special ability. Thinking of this, Philip was in a good mood. He went back to his room after excusing himself. He wanted to study the technique carefully. It would be best if he could discover something. The holy maiden watched indignantly as Philip left. Jamie knew that Celeste’s biggest advantage was her looks. She was so beautiful that the holy maiden felt the pressure. “Stay here with peace of mind and treat it as your own home. No need for formalities,” Celeste said to them with a smile as if she were the mistress of the house. Jam
Philip waved his hand. That was not what he meant. At this time, Celeste walked out of her room. She had fallen in love with cooking and always immersed herself in the kitchen, figuring out different recipes. In the past, Celeste lived alone in the gloomy forest without freedom or friends. After meeting Philip, she became more vibrant. Celeste would feel a sense of achievement whenever Philip ate the food she cooked. Seeing her, Philip greeted Celeste and introduced the visitors to her. “I don’t need a maid. I already have someone to take care of the household chores. Thank you for your kindness,” Philip said with a smile. Celeste had been doing a good job, so Philip did not think he needed another woman to take care of him. The more women around, the more trouble there would be. The holy maiden froze in surprise at the sight of such a beautiful woman around Philip. Although she was not ugly, she had to live with this ugly appearance until her marriage because of that nas
“That’s enough. Stop talking about me. You might as well think about how to deal with Hogster and the others. The Hexa Guild will definitely come after you.” Philip greeted Jamie calmly without taking the incident seriously at all. Seeing his reaction, Jamie thought that Philip was more and more unfathomable. The Hexa Guild was making a big fuss over this case. Many guilds had accepted the Hexa Guild’s gifts and now stood in opposition to the Celestial Palace. Although this matter had nothing to do with those guilds at all, they accepted the Hexa Guild's gifts in exchange for hyping the news up. It would be best if the two guilds fought. Maybe they could take advantage of the situation in the process! The other major guilds were waiting to watch the excitement too. They hoped that the Celestial Palace would be affected by this incident and it would maybe result in them losing the guild competition. Philip was also quite interested in the guild competition but was more curious
“Vanna mentioned that you enjoy drinking, so I prepared some fine wine for you.” Ronan said it so smoothly that he must have practiced it. Jamie was surprised to see Ronan taking a bottle of wine from his pocket, not at the wine itself. It proved that Ronan had a storage space. Thinking of this, Jamie felt better. Since Ronan had a storage space, he had to have a strong backing. Carlos had determined from various aspects that Ronan was a man with good character. In that case, Jamie had nothing more to worry about, and he could feel at ease again. “We’re about to hold a competition between the guilds. You can join us if you’re interested. Since you’re already part of us, you should do your best. If you can win the competition, I’ll consider officially acknowledging your identity.” Jamie seemed like a gentle and easygoing person. Ronan was excited by his words. He never dreamed that he would have the opportunity to be acknowledged. Ronan thought that he was unworthy of Vann
Jamie was startled. He never thought that someone would speak to him in this manner. With his high and mighty status, everyone spoke to him politely except Carlos. He was not used to someone treating him so frivolously. “I'm here to look for someone,” Jamie said with a smile. The rabbit meant no harm, so Jamie did not have to act like a domineering guild leader. Rabbit stepped aside. “Of course, I know you’re here to look for someone. There’s no other reason to be here otherwise. It's just a matter of whether you can see them.” Rabbit hopped away. He just wanted to see if it was a good or bad guy. After all, troublemakers would be taught a good lesson. Carlos walked out calmly with a teacup. He had fallen for the taste of tea. Philip’s tea was simply perfect. He would feel a fluctuation in his strength after drinking it. He was ecstatic at the discovery and was unwilling to return to the guild now. Taking a sip, he realized that someone familiar was standing at the door and
“I’m surprised that the Celestial Palace would be so shameless. Since they refuse to do things my way, they shouldn't blame me for doing this.” Alain decided to make good use of this incident to guilt-trip the Celestial Palace. He told his people to spread the news of the Celestial Palace to the public. All of a sudden, everyone knew that the young lady of the Celestial Palace had married another man without consent. The incident caused an uproar, and everyone was talking about it. It was one of the most explosive pieces of news in the world of practitioners. The Celestial Palace was a large guild that valued the personal conduct of their guild members. A member would be punished for doing such a thing, but their young lady had rebelliously chosen to be with a man of unknown origins. The news was all hyped up, and everyone waited to watch the excitement. Of course, the people of the Celestial Palace heard the news too. The guild leader scowled upon receiving it. He did not th
Sure enough, Alain was very angry. He stared at Dennis in disbelief, surprised at his defeat. “How did you end up losing? Is he really as strong as the rumors said? I refuse to believe that a little brat can bring you any harm!" Alain subconsciously felt that Dennis had not done his best. Alain was sure that Dennis was being overdramatic. Dennis had always been a powerful god of war. This unexpected outcome was simply impossible. Thus, he felt that Dennis had not done his best to fulfill his duty. “Although I only exchanged one move with that young man, I could easily tell his level. I could feel that he’s more talented than Hogster. I believe it’ll be a great help for us if we can take him under our wing.” Dennis was doing it for the benefit of the guild. It would be an advantage to the guild if they could get Ronan. However, his words infuriated Alain instead. He was angry at Dennis’ stupid suggestion. “Ronan is clearly not the same as us. No matter how strong he is, he
Although Dennis could not be bothered with Hogster, he had to fight for the chance to recruit Ronan. However, Ronan shook his head. “I already have Philip, so you can forget about it. So, do you still want to fight? I don't mind showing you my strength.” Ronan had simply executed a casual move just now, so it could not be considered a full-blown display of his powers. If Dennis still wanted to fight, he would oblige. Dennis shook his head. He could clearly tell that he was no match for Ronan. Although he wanted to teach Ronan a lesson, he would only end up tragically if he went ahead with it. He did not doubt that Ronan could easily crush him. “Please excuse our intrusion today.” Dennis bowed to Ronan and left without another word. He did not want to stay in this unpleasant place any longer. He was the third elder, a person of high status. Not to mention suffering an easy defeat, but he also had to apologize to the person who defeated him, which was simply woeful. The perso
