A deep voice sounded behind Martha. She got such a fright that she choked on a mouthful of water, coughed violently, and stood up in a panic while asking, “What… What’s the matter?” Standing at the top of the stairs, Philip walked down and stared at Martha coldly. He asked, “Did you enter my bedroom just now?” Of course, Martha would never admit it. She said, “No, of course not. Why would I enter your bedroom?” After that, she abruptly raised her voice and said, “Oh, I think Anne went into your bedroom this morning for cleaning duties. What’s wrong? Did you lose something? I already told you that Anne isn’t a good person. She stays here and lives off of us. Now, she’s even resorted to stealing!” Martha tried her best to put all the blame on Anne. Philip glared at Martha before turning around and leaving. Taking advantage of the time when Philip was upstairs, Martha quickly ran into Anne’s room to find a place to hide the jade ring. After thinking about it, she placed it o
Philip was livid! Martha was still unrepentant! She even resorted to things like stealing and framing others. Anne also cried tears of anger and felt extremely aggrieved. She stood at the door with tears pouring down her face. Philip squeezed the back of Martha’s neck, dragging her into the living room from Anne’s bedroom before throwing her on the ground! Thud! Martha stumbled and landed heavily on her bum! Severe pain! At this moment, Martha felt that her tail bone was broken. She sat on the ground with her face flushed, staring at Philip. Then, she cursed fiercely, “Philip, what are you doing? I’m your mother-in-law. How dare you treat me like this? Do you believe that I’ll Wynn about this? I want you to get a divorce!” Martha acted as if she had nothing to lose and still put on airs. However, Philip was very angry. He walked up, raised his leg, and kicked Martha on her shoulder before saying coldly, “What I hate the most is framing someone for a crime they d
“What happened to you?” Charles asked. Martha immediately howled and complained, “Ah, what do you think? I was beaten by Philip! How dare he treat me this way? You’re my husband, so do something about this!” Martha finally found her support, and now she was acting like a three-year-old, venting all her grievances and dissatisfaction. Charles also looked helpless as he asked, “Why did he beat you for no reason? Did you do something to provoke him?” Martha rolled her eyes around and said hesitantly, “No… I didn’t.” At the sight of her, Charles was sure she did something to offend Philip. Otherwise, Philip would not have been so heavy-handed. Therefore, he got up directly, ignored Martha, and left with some words, “Do as you please. After what happened today, haven’t you realized it already? Philip is no longer a good-for-nothing!” When Martha recalled what happened at the Green family, she felt chills up her spine. Philip was really different now. Back to Philip’s side.
Crack! The bottle shattered! The woman directly smashed the wine bottle in her hand on the ground and got up. Her face was flushed with anger as she yelled, “Assemble! Stop and kill all intruders!” With her order, the entire Stinger organization took action! In an instant, all members of the organization gathered in this hall! At the same time, a few figures appeared at the doorway. Philip walked at a leisurely pace and appeared in everyone’s sight. He was followed by Rick, Theo, and the others. At this moment, Theo and the others were already stained with blood. The woman on the throne saw the people who came and sat down again before saying coldly, “There are only a few of you and you still dare to break into my territory. You’re very brave!” At this moment, Philip looked like he was strutting with his hands in his trouser pockets. He glanced around a few times, then asked, “How long?” Rick took a glance and said, “Ten minutes.” “Okay,” Philip said, turned aroun
Philip was silent for a moment before he replied, “Sure. Pick me up when the time comes.” With Philip's affirmation, Theo beamed with joy and sent Philip away respectfully. Others might not know Philip’s identity and status, but Theo was aware. He had money and connections! This time, Theo planned to take down the entire South River District in one fell swoop! Very soon, Theo left to make preparations. Philip returned to the villa. Wynn had already returned and was playing with Mila. Seeing Philip, Wynn got up, motioned to Anne to bring Mila upstairs, and asked, “My mom told me that you beat her up?” Philip already expected that Martha would complain to Wynn, so he did not hide it and nodded, admitting it. “I did.” Wynn frowned. As soon as she returned, Martha had pulled her aside while crying and sobbing. She denounced Philip for torturing her. “What did she do this time?” Wynn knew Philip’s temper. If it was not the last straw, Philip would not do something like
Philip quickly ran to the small garden before he returned the call. Very soon, the call connected. It was a hearty male voice accompanied by sounds of other voices. He seemed to be at a party. “Philip, please hold on.” After that, the man on the other line seemed to gradually move away from the crowded area to a quiet place. “What did you find out?” Philip was anxious. He finally heard from Fennel after so long, and he had been in Fernvale recently. He must be investigating the task he had given him. “I found it,” the man on the line spoke with a hoarse voice, obviously different from the frivolous persona just now. “The reason why the Larson family of Fernvale withdrew from the mainland is inseparable from the Wallis family. The person behind the scenes should be Giada Wallis.” Giada? Philip frowned. He had long guessed that this was the case. “However, I found something else.” On the other end, Fennel said solemnly, “There seems to be someone else behind Gia
“Excuse me, but we’re busy.” Wynn smiled apologetically, not wanting to argue with someone like Muriel. During college, Wynn already knew that Muriel was a snobby and selfish person. “Hehe, why? Did I touch on a sore spot?” Muriel crossed her arms over her chest with a disdainful look, glanced at Philip, and sneered, “Wynn, I don’t want to talk bad about you, but you’re the campus belle after all. How could you actually marry him? Just look at him. Your man looks exactly like a loafer.” “Watch your words. He’s my husband!” Wynn said angrily, her face grim. However, instead of listening, Muriel sneered even louder and grabbed the little clothes in Wynn's hand. She said, “Hey, these are branded goods. Can you afford them? Are children born to parents with income disparity like you worthy of branded names?” Worthy? Of course not! In Muriel’s eyes, Wynn belonged to the lower echelons of society. Since two years ago, she had long heard about Philip’s trashiness. It was j
Philip chastised Muriel relentlessly! Muriel just stared at Philip blankly. She never expected this guy to have such a way with words! “Do you think you can do as you please just because you have foreign citizenship? You can insult people? Who gave you the right?” Philip yelled loudly. Muriel dared not rebuke. This was because the crowd around them had started talking about this, even criticizing Muriel! “Yes! A few days ago, there was news that several foreigners did not abide by the traffic regulations. They only received verbal warnings, but our locals were fined!” “Why are they treated differently? We should be equal!” “This b*tch really thinks that she’s so great! She’s just a foreign-idolizing turncoat!” In the crowd, the discussion completely exploded. Muriel had aroused public outrage. “You! What do country bumpkins like you know? Foreigners are better than you. They’re more cultured than any of you!” Muriel retorted doggedly as she pointed at everyone. As
“You’re right. The mermaid is such a mysterious creature. How can anyone cure its poison?” Stanley smiled wryly, feeling sorry for himself. “Philip, you have to find a way to save my father. I’ll do anything for you if you can save him!” Yule grabbed Philip’s shoulders with agitation. He begged Philip and almost knelt at his feet. In Yule's opinion, Philip was an omnipotent and powerful existence. There was nothing he could not do. Likewise, Aslan and the others shared the same thought. Therefore, they were surprised when Philip said that he could not save Stanley. Philip sighed. In the past, he had been to places of a lower civilization where the natives were not very strong. He could do whatever he wanted and no one could do much to him even if they wanted to. However, Philip was not familiar with places of a higher civilization. Even Rabbit only knew a little and was hesitant to speak. Hence, Philip was not confident he could save Stanley. “Maybe that creature came fro
“Let’s stop making wild guesses and wait for Yule's father to explain. This creature doesn’t belong to this continent, so no one knows what’s going on.” Philip reached out and gently touched the scales in amazement. He felt that something was wrong with this mermaid. With that touch, he found that the mermaid’s scales were better than those of a dragon. Philip once found a dragon scale by chance, but the dragon scale was not as tough as the mermaid's scales. Moreover, the mermaid's scales could change into various shapes, which was amazing. “If the scales are used to make a weapon, it’ll definitely be the best treasure. Not only can it attack and defend, but also…” Before Philip could finish his words, he heard Yule's father coughing violently. He seemed in pretty bad shape. “Rascal, go and look at the fish. She’s not an ordinary fish but a mermaid I found by chance! According to ancient records, there are many similar creatures in the world of the gods, and they're a force
Almost everyone knew about the condition of Yule's father, and most of them were there to watch the fun. When Yule and the others appeared, some people could not wait to start taunting him. “Oh, you’re such a good son. Your father is already in this state, but you’re still in the mood to fool around outside. You should start preparing for your father’s wake!” “The miracle doctor has given a diagnosis, saying that your father has only a few more days to live. Stop wasting time and start preparing for the funeral!” Everyone mocked Yule, who was respected simply because of his father’s position. Now that Yule's father was dying, no one wanted to show him that respect anymore. Some people even planned to steal things from Yule’s house! With no one else to back him up, everyone thought that Yule did not deserve to stay in that luxurious house anymore. Hearing everyone’s taunts, Yule was so angry that he trembled all over, but now was no time to argue. He had to find out his fath
Very soon, everyone left the King’s Ruins. Philip had taken care of the danger, so they just had to collect the treasures. Yule and his team were grateful to Philip and flattered him along the way. After all, they would not have been able to leave the place alive so easily if not for Philip. The King’s Ruins were still dangerous even though they did not face any monsters head-on. They knew they managed to avoid most dangers because of Philip. At this moment, Yule’s communicator vibrated. Only his close family members had his contact, so Yule immediately felt a bad premonition. He walked to the corner with the communicator and spoke anxiously. It seemed that he had encountered some big trouble. Philip waited for Yule to return to the team without a word. Ten minutes later, Yule returned to the team. He looked very depressed as if he had encountered a big problem. Philip noticed his reaction but did not take the initiative to approach him. He knew that Yule would approach h
“Philip, look, I solved half the problem for you. The rest is up to you.” After saying this, Yule laughed triumphantly, blatantly disregarding Mason’s cold glare. Mason frowned and looked at Philip with apprehension. He could not verify Philip’s story, but if Philip was telling the truth, he would have lost the bet again. “Get out of our sight. We've wasted a lot of time because of you. Don't blame us for attacking you if you stay here any longer!” Aslan had a hot temper and kicked Mason when he noticed Mason's hesitance. Mason fell to the ground miserably and looked at Philip with murderous intent. “Let’s go and stop wasting our time here!” After saying this, Mason took the lead and ran away, unwilling to stay here a second longer. Philip’s strong power deterred him greatly, and Philip was not afraid of Sienna at all, which crushed Mason’s final confidence. Mason was best at using other people’s influence, but it was on the premise that others were willing to bow down to
Mason frowned at Aslan but did not respond. Philip said, “This guy has become Sienna’s underling. He’s here to find the Binary Herb for Sienna, which coincides with our purpose. Now, he wants me to hand it over or he’ll ask Sienna to kill me. I’m very scared,” Philip said sarcastically and could hardly contain his laughter. Hearing that, everyone was startled before bursting into laughter. They had been with Philip through thick and thin, so they knew who Sienna was. “No way, this guy is using Sienna to threaten Philip. Is he kidding?” “I’m sure he’ll be scared out of his wits if he finds out what really happened. This is ridiculous.” Philip’s men scoffed at Mason’s arrogance. Yule’s men were puzzled, wondering what was going on. “Before this, Philip almost killed a snake monster named Sienna. Unexpectedly, the snake monster escaped and found herself a human servant. On top of that, this human servant thinks so highly of himself as if he's very proud of his identity.” L
“Go and grab that thing for me. We have to get hold of it! Don’t let that guy steal our treasure. And remember to find the thing I want!” Mason ordered his men in a panic. Mason was startled by Philip’s speed of collecting things. Everyone quickly sprang into action. They were not fools. They would be penalized if they did not get things done. They raced against time to grab the treasures from Philip, but Philip was unfazed. He knew that all the treasures would fall into his hands in the end. Besides, the piles of treasures simply contained some pills and other stuff, nothing much. “Sir, we didn’t find the Binary Herb.” At this time, someone stepped forward to report their findings. Everyone was anxious when they realized they could not find the most important Binary Herb. Mason scowled at the bad news. “Impossible. The Binary Herb must be around somewhere.” The location of the Binary Herb was marked on his map. It had to be nearby. Mason looked around with the map
“Of course, an ignorant guy like you wouldn’t know what’s going on. This place is full of danger and had a powerful monster as a guardian. You don’t know anything because you’re unworthy.” Mason jerked his chin smugly, clearly proud that he knew some inside information. “If you beg me, I’ll consider going with you to deal with this monster.” In Mason’s opinion, Philip was no match for this monster. The bloodstains had to be from some weak monsters killed by Philip. According to his understanding, the legendary guardian snake monster was very powerful, not something ordinary people could deal with. “Don't you know why you’re here?” Philip said smugly. He knew that Mason was nothing but a pawn. Philip had seen through everything and was full of scorn for Mason’s nature. Mason was horrified that Philip knew him so well. “How did you know? I've been keeping this secret very well. No one should know about it. Did that snake woman tell you? That's impossible. She hates you very
Seeing this scene, Rabbit applauded excitedly. “You must be dreaming if you think you can fight Philip!” Rabbit said excitedly. Philip quickly killed the snake. He was surprised to find that the snake only had half of its body. He thought half of the snake was trapped in the stone, but it only had half a body left. “Did it grow from the stone?” Rabbit was shocked, wondering what was going on. “Something is wrong with this monster beast. It’s actually growing from the stone. How strange!” Philip was surprised by the strange discovery. “Indeed. It looks very strange, not like a good guy at all.” Rabbit was horrified and felt that the snake was more than met the eye. “Philip, look at this. Is it a description of this monster beast?” Rabbit looked at a huge stone tablet on the side in puzzlement. “Philip, look, I think this snake has something to do with that snake woman!” Rabbit was surprised to see what was written on the stone tablet and pulled Philip over for a look. The
