“Damn… B*stard! Let go of me! I’ll call the police! Ah! Help!” Chloe was very drunk and could not even stand firmly on her feet, but she at least remained awake. She shouted angrily, but how could a weak woman like her be a match for a few hooligans? “Haha, don’t be anxious. We’ll bring you out for a few more drinks. I know a place where we can enjoy ourselves!” However, as soon as his fat hand reached out, a heavy kick landed on his back. He was slammed into the corner of the bar counter, screaming as blood gushed out of his head! Holding his head, the fat man got up from the ground and looked at Philip who was standing behind him nonchalantly. He roared, “Where did this brat come from? Are you tired of living?” “I’ll give you ten seconds to get the hell out of here!” Philip was obviously very angry, especially when he saw them molesting Chloe. Anger brewed in his heart! She was his ex-fiancée after all, so how could he allow her to be insulted like this? “What the f*c
Long before Philip even arrived, all the previous customers who were drinking and dancing had run away, leaving a few bartenders left in the huge bar. Philip glanced at the few figures that just arrived and could not help but sneer. Then, he simply sat on the sofa while resting his head against the cushion, ready to watch a good show. The group of people that rushed here for reinforcements saw Philip sitting on the sofa. Their bad temper from before quickly dispersed as they turned to look at the fat man. That guy saw Ray coming, so he ran over immediately before pointing at Philip and shouting, “Ray, you’re finally here. I was hit by that brat over there. He even hurt many of my boys. Get rid of him quickly!” Ray heard his words and noticed the look in Philip’s eyes. Smack! Before the fat man even finished speaking, Ray went up and slapped him viciously on the face until that man was dizzy! “Boss… Ray, why’d you hit me for? I’m Fat Bill! He hit us…” His face was full o
Philip simply took Chloe to a nearby one-star hotel. He opened the door and put Chloe on the bed, but this woman had thrown up quite a lot along the way. Both she and Philip were dirty all over. Philip looked around, turned his head, and wanted to leave. After all, he could not take care of others. Moreover, there should be a distance between a man and a woman. Even if she was his ex-fiancée, they should not stay in the same room. However, Chloe was obviously drunk and had vomited all over her body. Despite that, he restrained himself. He was not a monk! He could not do that! He put her on the bed and placed the quilt over her. Philip sat on the side of the bed and looked at her for a while, finding that Chloe was really beautiful from this angle! For an inexplicable reason, tears rolled down from the corner of Chloe’s eyes while she was asleep. Philip’s heart suddenly ached when he noticed it. Philip sighed. This lass must be troubled by something. Otherwise, she would
Philip frowned, stared at Chloe, and remained silent for a long time before he said, “No.”Frowning, Chloe turned around and ignored Philip, walking into the villa by herself. He was still pretending at this moment? Very well, then. She would see how long he could carry on the act. Seeing that Chloe had lost her temper, Philip touched his nose in embarrassment before following her. She was the one who asked him to attend the banquet with her, but now she made it seem like he had done something wrong. In the luxurious villa, many long tables were laid out with food and drinks served on top of them. Beautiful waitresses in uniform were walking around while dozens of young men and women were full of smiles and chattering with one another, each holding a wine glass. This was a private banquet, hence the people invited were all well-known rich second-generation entrepreneurs from the East Business District. They were not here simply to eat, drink, and have fun but to talk about
However, he had no other choice. He turned around and said to the young waiter, “Hurry up and apologize.” With tears welling up in his eyes, the young waiter gritted his teeth and said, “Manager, I just looked at her once. Why right does she have to hit me? I won’t apologize!” The woman frowned and said, “Excuse me? Did I allow you to look at me? You’re nothing but a lowly waiter. Who do you think you are? So what if I hit you? You’re poor, dirty, and perverted. No wonder you can only hide in a dark corner and peep! Pah!” The service manager frowned and said coldly to John, “John, hurry up and apologize. Otherwise, I have to let you go. I don’t need an employee like you here.” The young waiter’s eyes turned red immediately. He bit his lip and glared at the coquettish woman viciously. After a long while, he still forced out the sentence, “Madam, I… I’m sorry. I apologize for my behavior just now. I hope you can forgive me.” The woman sneered and mocked, “Forgive you? Why don
A glint of coldness flashed through Philip’s eyes. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Juan Parker, you actually employed such underhanded methods. Is it interesting?” Unexpectedly, Juan was also invited to this private banquet. Juan was startled and instinctively took a half step back, but when he saw so many people in the hall, he felt confident again. He sneered in his heart as he looked at Philip and said, “Stop bullsh*tting in front of me! How dare you molest a woman in front of so many people? I’ll call the police to arrest you! If you have anything to say, tell it to the police! I really didn’t expect this. Wynn is still in the hospital but you’re fooling around here!” Naturally, there were many women in the audience. When they saw how Juan stood up for another woman, they felt delighted. “Mr. Parker’s right. Arrest him! This person is too despicable!” “Where did this hooligan come from? How dare he barge into our private banquet! Security, get rid of him!” Just as eve
Especially in Riverdale, Juan Parker had taken the center spot recently! With three companies under his name, he had strong connections and funds! This was also the reason why Juan was invited to the banquet tonight. The main thing was, they did not expect a woman like Chloe Sommerset to be so intense. Her every word and every slap was so full of severity, and one could not help but admire such a woman! Especially the question that Chloe posed just now, would one rather molest someone else than her... This sentence made many men hot and bothered. It was simply too exciting! Philip looked at Chloe with a broad grin and said, “Miss Sommerset, I didn’t expect you to be so domineering.” Chloe took a sip of wine from her glass and said lightly, “Don’t call me Miss Sommerset in the future.” “Why not?” Philip was taken aback. Suddenly thinking of something, he hurriedly asked, “Did you quarrel with your father?” Chloe gave him an angry look, put down the wine glass, and cros
After hanging up the phone, Philip was full of anger. His uncle was actually detained by the branch family! That damned branch family actually dared to stretch their hands into the main family now! Philip raised his head and looked at the sky with a hardened resolve. Since they refused to listen to warnings, they could not blame him for not considering the familial relations between the main and branch families. Soon after that, Philip contacted Rick and told him to stay in the hospital for a few days. As he was going to return to Arcadia Island, he could not take care of matters in Riverdale. Then, Philip contacted Theo. Theo brought along a few of his men in a Mayback and hurried over before saying respectfully, “Mr. Clarke, what are your orders?” Philip glanced at Theo, unsure if the plan would work. “How many men do you have?” Theo replied, “More than 200 in the main branch and more than 300 in the sub-branches, so about 600 in total.” “600…” Philip frowned, worri
At this time, Philip noticed something on the ground. He walked over and picked it up curiously. “Philip, that thing fell from the old octopus just now. I wonder what it is. Maybe it’s a rare treasure!” Rabbit popped out and looked at Philip excitedly, attracted by this shiny object. “Isn’t that the core of a monster beast? Wow, this octopus was so powerful that it could even produce a core! It’s a pity that it bumped into someone like me, who eats octopuses without leaving anything behind.” Philip collected the core that the octopus had developed for tens of thousands of years and grinned at the carcass that lay in his space. Only monster beasts that had practiced for tens of thousands of years could produce such a precious thing, so Philip hardly saw any. Philip had not killed any beasts with tens of thousands of years of practice, so he had only heard of it. “I’m surprised that this guy gave me such a precious thing. In that case, we must have a good meal to show our a
“Philip, I sense a weird presence. I think something is after us. Do you think it’s the octopus’ father?” Rabbit scowled, feeling they should leave at once. “Didn’t you explore the cave thoroughly just now? Did you find other monsters inside?” Philip frowned and explored with his senses. Although he was very strong and sensitive, he could not sense approaching danger like a monster beast. A normal monster beast could sense up to tens of thousands of yards but Philip could only sense thousands of yards at most. That was the ultimate difference between humans and monster beasts. Rabbit was worried. It did not consider this problem. “I was so busy looking for the way out just now that I overlooked this problem. Who would know that the octopus had a father?” Before Philip could retort, they felt the world spinning around them, and a huge tentacle hit Philip. Philip pressed Rabbit down and turned around to dodge as quickly as he could. He knew that a powerful being was here. “
“Haha, but I never planned to let you go either. In that case, don’t blame me for doing this!” The octopus' huge tentacle twitched as if it were going to teach Philip a lesson. Philip sneered at this scene. This little octopus was quite interesting. Although the octopus claimed that it would not harm Philip, Philip could read its thoughts from its eyes and actions. This octopus was more than met the eye. He would have died if he listened to its nonsense. “Hehe, I'm not hungry now. I’ll keep you and the rabbit as my food rations. Let’s see if you can escape my clutches!” The octopus swung its tentacles and sent all the surrounding gravel flying, creating chaos. “Philip, that thing is so full of itself. Let’s stop wasting time with it and leave at once. I've found the exit. It’s right in front of us!” Rabbit hopped up to Philip and pointed out the route it found. Philip let Rabbit go earlier so it could find the way out. Although Philip wanted to eat the octopus, he knew that
“I wanted to let you go, but I've changed my mind. Leave this rabbit behind as my supper and you can leave safely. Otherwise, you can never escape. Since you're here for the ruins, you won't leave empty-handed. Let’s make a deal.” The octopus seemed very confident that Philip would give Rabbit up. Rabbit glared daggers at the octopus, shocked that it wanted to eat it for no reason. “I know many secrets about this place. If you strike the deal with me, I can tell you some secrets so that you can go through the King’s Ruins smoothly.” The octopus seemed to read Philip’s thoughts and tried to convince him to agree to the deal.Seeing that, Philip pretended to be tempted. “Really? That's great. It’s a good deal to get so many secrets with just one rabbit.” Philip placed Rabbit on his palm and shook it in front of the octopus. “But you have to tell me the secrets first or I’m afraid you won’t keep to your promise. I’m definitely no match for you. I won't gain anything if you go
The tentacle’s target was the bird in front of Philip. “It’s really strange to see a bird in this place.” Philip grabbed the bird and threw it to the tentacle, which caught the bird without noticing Philip’s presence. Philip followed along, curious to see what the tentacle belonged to. The tentacle looked like it belonged to a squid, which seemed quite appetizing. However, Philip did not think the tentacle was an easy opponent to deal with. The other party was clearly a force to be reckoned with, but it was not very sensitive to its surroundings. Philip had been here for quite long, but the tentacle had not discovered his presence. It was clearly a creature with a poor reaction. He was very curious to find out what creature this tentacle belonged to. He followed the direction where the tentacle disappeared but saw no end to the path. His hard work finally paid off, though. Through his relentless tracking, Philip finally found the body of the tentacle but was surprised by
“Are you sure you want to go in?” Rabbit jerked awake from its daze and crawled out of Philip's arms. “In that case, you should choose someone who isn't afraid to die,” Rabbit said tauntingly as if it was ready to watch the fun. Yule was startled by Rabbit’s sudden appearance and nasty remark. Although Philip had not formally introduced Rabbit, he knew that Rabbit was Philip’s pet, a powerful creature that most people could not afford to offend. Although rich people would tend to mess around with similar monster pets, a creature like Rabbit that had developed intelligence and could speak to humans were few and far between. “With all sorts of dangers below, you can give it a try if you’re not afraid to die. Of course, I’d advise against it. After all, you’re very weak,” Rabbit scorned Yule while telling him the truth. It was very mean, indeed. Philip shook his head helplessly while Rabbit intimidated others. He was more determined to cook Rabbit now. “Based on the informatio
“Are these things good enough for you? You haven’t seen anything yet.” Yule was embarrassing. If his people dared to do this, Philip would explode. He would never allow his people to act this way. “Yeah, the pills and weapons we found along the way are simply amazing. I can’t imagine what we’ll find in the real treasure vault. I’m sure even you’ll be won over.” They did not encounter any dangers or difficult creatures along the way as if they had passed the test. However, they did not find any trace of the King’s Ruins either, which puzzled Philip. “Is the so-called King’s Ruins referring to these useless things?” Philip frowned and glanced around. If this was the so-called King’s Ruins, he would be very disappointed. Rabbit popped out and waved its paw at Philip, clearly trying to say something. “Philip, you’re too much. Do you really think these things are worthless? Maybe you don’t find them valuable, but they're seen as priceless treasures to others. Most people can’t e
“Yule's father is seriously injured, and his strength has reduced significantly. He’ll die if he can’t find an expert to cure him. Do you think Yule can act so arrogantly if his father dies? There’s no way he can do that anymore.” Mason’s words gave everyone the hope to replace Yule. Yule had used his identity to gain a lot of benefits in Deadly Arena. Although no one said anything, they longed to do the same too. “If you can do this for me, I promise you the same treatment. You'll enjoy no less than what Yule has.” Mason was confident that since Sienna was on his side, it would soon be his time to soar to greater heights. It would then be impossible for these people to mess with him. He could easily deal with anyone from Deadly Arena who dared to oppose him. With Sienna’s strength, he could do whatever he wanted. “As long as you help me get what I want, I’ll give you whatever you want. That’s a promise,” Mason said smugly. Everyone was surprised and looked forward to i
“I’m surprised that these golems are so difficult to deal with. I thought we could crush them easily!” “If we had known earlier, we would've taken our time and let Philip’s people deal with them!” Everyone regretted it, but no one knew what to do now that the golems were in front of them. Mason gritted his teeth and led the fight. It was a matter of life and death, and no one could be excluded. These golems were difficult for Lyle to deal with, not to mention these losers. They suffered heavy casualties, and everyone was injured to some extent. Fortunately, they brought a lot of supplies with them. They had many pills to heal wounds and could save their lives for the time being. “One golem caused us such casualties. We’ll be in trouble if more golems turn up.” Someone glanced at Mason in a panic. The same man who spoke gulped and expressed his opinion, “I think we should work with Yule and the others. Maybe we can quickly reach our destination with them. More importantl
