Muriel was also around at this time. She was sitting on Carr’s lap while saying coquettishly, “Dear, won’t you do it for me? Let’s get back at her for my sake, okay?”Carr spread his hands and looked helpless. He spoke in a heavy accent, “Muriel, Beacon Group is one of the few large companies in Riverdale. Moreover, they’ll soon launch a new drug in the market that will bring new blood to the pharmaceutical industry. I can’t just issue a drug prohibition order to them because of personal enmity. It violates my work ethics.” “No way! I can’t stand that Wynn Johnston! She just got the position of chairwoman, right? No wonder she was so smug the other day!” Muriel was adamant, so she got off Carr’s lap and said bitterly, “You must help me in this matter. Otherwise, I’ll send the evidence of your affairs with those little vixens in the association to your workgroup!” When Carr heard this, he was angry. With his face flushed red, he said, “Muriel, have you been investigating me?” M
Wynn came to the company and presided over the situation. A meeting of the board of directors was also held urgently. “What should we do now? What is the medical association trying to do? Why did they cancel our qualifications for no reason?” “Who knows? But I heard that Madam Johnston has offended someone from Golden City Medical Association, so they’re deliberately causing trouble for us.” “Really? How come I’ve never heard about it? Will this company still continue to operate? Stopping production for three months, how big of a loss will we incur? Won’t our investment all be in vain then?” The entire conference room was in total chaos. The board members were all talking about it and all kinds of rumors were flying in the air. The door of the conference room was pushed open, and Wynn appeared in front of everyone while wearing a black trench coat. She walked straight to the main seat. The noise in the conference room decreased. However, someone said in dissatisfactio
“Yes,” Mindy said and quickly left the meeting room. Wynn was left alone in the huge conference room. She did not know if she could withstand the power of the internet. In the last incident, the change of public opinion was due to the huge investment from Milanelson Angel Investment Group. Should she ask Philip for help? Wynn was hesitant. She did not want to rely on Philip to solve the problem every time. She did not want to be a useless person. Very soon, Philip appeared in the office. “Wynn, what happened?” Philip stepped into the director’s office, noticed the despondent look on Wynn’s face, and knew that things were bad. Wynn merely smiled when she saw Philip and said, “It’s fine. I’m handling it.” “How’s it going?” Philip continued asking. Wynn shook her head and said, “The medical association’s branch office canceled our qualifications and ordered us to suspend production for three months, but you don’t need to worry. I’m thinking of a way now. I know Mr.
Anna was slightly taken aback by those words. She realized that Wynn was an untouchable existence in Philip’s heart! This woman was too blissful. With Philip always supporting and helping her from behind, Anna was even a little envious and jealous. However, she understood that in Philip’s eyes, Wynn was everything. Even if she gave her body to him for free, she would not get any attention. “Mr. Clarke, how do you want us to retaliate?” Knowing that Philip was angry with Robbie James, Anna could predict that Riverdale’s entertainment industry would undergo a massive reshuffle. Philip took a puff of his cigarette and said with a chill in his eyes, “Find me 100 verified accounts to act as keyboard warriors, as well as accounting and financial-related assistants. I want it fast. We’ll act tonight.” “Mr. Clarke, what are you going to do?” Anna was extremely surprised. It seemed that Philip was planning to attack Robbie. “Aren’t they trying to control the public opinion o
“The trending topics we hyped up regarding Beacon and Wynn Johnston have dropped from the top ten!” Leo Brady wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. “It must be done by Beacon’s PR department. Why are you panicking? Just hype the topics up again. Isn’t it just money? One million!” Robbie waved his hand as he said confidently. However, Beacon’s reaction was quite quick. It seemed that Wynn Johnston was not incompetent after all. Leo’s next sentence left Robbie stunned. “No, Mr. James, all the five trending searches fell out of the top 20. If we hype them up again, we need at least five million!” “What?!” Robbie panicked. He quickly sat up, clicked on the webpage, and browsed through the search engines. He was instantly shocked! He found that those topics were no longer trending. In the entire network, rumors about Beacon and Wynn were being deleted at an unbelievable rate. Terrifying! The opponent was savage! This method was impossible without the cooperation of
Philip was very calm. He chuckled and said, “Wynnie, what’s the matter? I just saw that the trending topics on the internet about the company have dropped. I had just wanted to ask if I could do something.” Philip did not admit it because he knew that Wynn did not want his help. She was a headstrong woman and wanted to solve the problem on her own. Wynn frowned and was obviously taken aback. If not Philip, then who? “Oh, I already know. The company’s PR department is dealing with it,” Wynn smiled and said, the expression on her face unnatural. “Okay, if you need anything, feel free to contact me. I can help you,” Philip said and hung up. Wynn crossed her arms over her chest as her face became more doubtful. She asked again, “Are you sure it’s not done by us?” The manager pushed his glasses and said, “No, the manipulator or team behind the scenes is very strong. The funds and connections are beyond our ability. With this work alone, they must have spent at least tens of mi
Robbie panicked. With a deep frown, he slammed the table and said, “Throw in more money! Increase the price to 20 million!” “Mr. James, we don’t stand a chance. The other party has already forked out 50 million. If we want to fight, we need this amount.” Leo held up one finger. 100 million! Robbie slumped on his chair. How could this be? Was Beacon’s public relations team so strong? They were practically fighting with their lives! 100 million. Could Robbie afford it? No! He needed to consult Hendricks. However, just five minutes ago in Theo’s conference room. Philip stood calmly in front of the large French window with his hands in his trouser pockets. He was watching the neon lights outside the window and the tall buildings. Behind him, Anna walked with graceful steps and handed him a cup of coffee while smiling charmingly. “Mr. Clarke, we’re ready to begin.” Philip took the coffee, turned around, and looked at the dozens of people in the conference room, a
He fully understood the power of the internet. He knew that the negative impact behind these ten hot search topics would be devastating! “Mr. James, something went wrong. We’re suspended!” Leo rushed in with his computer, extremely agitated. Of course, Robbie realized the reason. He glanced at Leo and said anxiously, “Quickly, drop the hot searches. No matter how much it costs, we must drop them!” In an instant, the entire mansion quickly became busy, and various phone calls came in and out. On the other hand, Robbie sat limply on the sofa with his eyes wide open. He was staring straight at the hot search topics, and every topic was labeled ‘hot’. Ten minutes passed. Not only did the hot searches not drop, but they were getting more and more popular! Leo reappeared at the door, his eyes blank. He felt like he was sobbing without tears. “Mr. James, it’s over. We… We can’t drop them! There are too many people. More than 100 big accounts, hundreds of millions of fans!” T
“Don’t worry. He’s not as powerful as you think. Besides, you can take control of my body at the critical moment, can’t you?” Abele patted her chest confidently. Hearing that, the mysterious voice stopped wasting its breath on Abele. They arrived at Philip’s residence at this point. They were surprised to find the door wide open as if Philip was waiting for their arrival. “That’s strange. Does he always leave the door open, or is he prepared to deal with us?” Abele was puzzled and pushed the door open carefully. Maybe the door was too old, so it made a creaking sound, which was quite unpleasant. There was no one behind the door. “What’s going on?” The ugly elves entered the garden but only saw some empty teacups with no sign of anyone. “They must have heard the news and ran away in advance or this place wouldn’t be empty now!” Abele was disappointed that they ran so quickly. In reality, Philip had stuffed everyone in Verge Tower while he watched the scene in a hidden co
“Take this pill and you won’t have to go around with this scary face anymore. Even if it doesn't scare our women, it's not good to scare other people.” Philip helped Loony as a show of his sincerity. He was a pitiful man, after all. “That’s great. I’ve not seen a pill for many years!” He seemed to trust Philip and swallowed the pill Philip gave him without hesitation. He looked very satisfied as if he was Philip’s devoted follower. After he swallowed the pill, his injuries healed before everyone’s eyes, and he was soon back to normal. Loony was surprised by that powerful force and trusted Philip even more. Philip set a barrier around Loony and gave him a room to rest. The barrier he set could shield Loony and buy them some time. He knew that the ugly elves were right on their tail, and it was also about time for the merfolk to find them. Philip would be in trouble if everyone showed up at the same time. Therefore, it was better to conceal Loony and take care of the thin
“I’m running out of time. I have a curse on me, and they can find my whereabouts. I’ll die if you don’t help me.” “You said you can help me escape from this world. What do you mean by that?” Philip was more interested in this topic. After all, everyone would think that the world of the gods was a good place. Why would anyone choose to leave? Unless that person was a fool. This world was full of energy and resources. If humans were not seen as outcasts, Philip could not understand why anyone would want to leave. “This world is nothing but a huge cage. Those people are unaware of it because they're trapped inside. No one knows that they're nothing but the playthings of the so-called upper gods. They’ll be abandoned once the interest wears off one day!” Hearing that, Aslan came to a conclusion. This guy was no doubt a mental patient who should be sent to the hospital for treatment. “Philip, do you believe him? I think he’s nothing but a patient from a mental asylum.” Aslan f
“What’s this vintage family?” Philip had never heard of this family in all the worlds he traveled, so he had no idea what the other party was talking about. “My family is proficient in voodoo and has always used it to embark on the path of practice. But our powerful practice makes us a prime target for those with ulterior motives too.” The people of this family were very powerful, so everyone envied them and tried to harm them. “The members of my family led a normal life back then, but later, many people were deceived into marrying people of other races. As a result, the offspring of such pairings became monsters without legs! “We'd only find one normal child among a dozen children, which is a great blow to our family. No one could accept it! “I’m the only normal child among my batch of children, so I have a distinguished status. Something happened to my family after I was born, so I’m probably the last descendant of my family.” Philip was very excited to hear the other p
Meanwhile, Philip sensed that someone was fast approaching them. “Everyone, watch out. I sense something coming for us,” Philip said warily. There was a loud knock on the door. Lyle walked over curiously and opened the door. He saw a disheveled man standing at the door and staring at him. It was a scary sight, indeed. “What the hell? Dude, don’t scare me in broad daylight! What are you doing?” Lyle cursed in fright. He never dreamed that he would see such a horrible scene. The man was covered in terrifying wounds, some so deep that the bones could be seen. He had clearly been injured for a while. His face also looked incomplete as if his flesh had been gnawed alive by something. He was just unpleasant to look at. Aslan and the others rushed over, curious to see what frightened Lyle so badly. Everyone frowned at the sight of the man, shocked by his terrifying appearance. “Whoa!” Even the talkative Aslan was at a loss for words. While he sympathized with the other party,
Sure enough, the pill was nothing special. Apart from appearing quite tasty, the pill had no other effect. It was considered a useless item. “Humans are quite good at making pills. It’d be great if I had that ability too,” Akash said eagerly. He had studied this topic with others before, but they concluded that no other race had the talent to make pills apart from humans. Philip continued chatting with Akash, all the time wondering who he was. He could easily tell whether the other person's face was real or fake. This person did not disguise himself. His face was real. “Philip, I sense something wrong,” Lyle muttered under his breath. He sensed a strange vibe. A strong fishy smell was coming from a distance. Philip immediately recognized the source of the fishy smell. Who else could it be but the ugly elves? Abele was heading to the city with her troops. They knew that attacking these people was a matter of life and death. “We need to watch out. Don’t give them a chance
At this time, Akash ran over as if he were shocked to hear that sound. “Did you hear a deafening sound just now? I felt uncomfortable all over after that as if something was staring at me!” Akash said in a panic. He was now very jittery and afraid of everything. “Don’t worry, it’s probably an explosion somewhere,” Philip said. Akash was startled as if he could not understand Philip’s meaning. “Explosion? Is it a demon? That’d be very bad!” Akash looked around anxiously, feeling nothing else but panic. “Anyway, this is strange. No one knows what’s happening, so let’s just take it one step at a time. If a demon appears, we have no choice but to face it.” Philip waved his hand, not interested in this topic. They would have to face it, come hell or high water. Akash nodded and sat drinking his cup of tea with a bad premonition lingering in his heart. “Let’s hope you’re right.” Philip sat down and felt that something was wrong with Akash’s reaction. He probably knew something
The captured elves would suffer various hardships and become the humans' pitiful plaything. To prevent it from happening again, Akash forbade his people from stepping into the outside world. Therefore, it was ironic for him to summon his people here. “Find a room and have a good rest while you wait for your people to arrive.” Philip pointed to one of the empty rooms. Akash was exhausted after a long journey. Even though he had drunk a pot of tea, his mental state was not very good. He would collapse very soon without a good rest. Akash nodded. He did not refuse Philip's kindness because he knew he could not hold on much longer. He felt very unhappy at the thought of the upcoming battle.… At this time, the place responsible for imprisoning humans was getting restless as if the barriers were weakening. “Comrades, keep it up. I can feel the barriers weakening. We can leave soon!” A man shouted, and his words motivated everyone. Everyone was excited and worked harder to bre
“That’s great. I knew that our sacred tree would never lie to me. Only you’d dare to help me in this situation.” Akash was moved to tears by Philip’s words. He never dreamed that Philip was willing to help him. “I’ll try to contact the other elf warriors and see if I can summon them. Our combat effectiveness will improve significantly with their help.” Akash went to a corner to contact the elf warriors using a special method. They would sense it if they were still alive. However, he forgot an important thing. Abele was once a member of the family and knew about it too. She could feel the call the same as other warriors. As Akash summoned the warriors, Abele smiled wickedly. She did not expect Akash to summon his people so soon. “This took no effort at all. I was thinking if I should use my bloodline to search for his trace, but he turned up right at my doorstep. How convenient.” Abele found Akash’s location but was puzzled by his choice. “Is he crazy? Why is he in the h
