Caesar smiled bitterly and said, “I know. He told me that the other party has fatal evidence against me, but I refuse to believe it. I’ve done this for so many years. Everything has been cleaned up properly. For this person to frame me like this, he must be someone in the industry. It’s most likely one of those old guys!”“Okay, I see. I’ll talk to Jim Todd.” On the other end of the line, Hank York also became serious. At this moment, he was sitting in an office somewhere. The environment was very luxurious, befitting of his status as a big boss. The southern headquarters of the Film and Television Association was in charge of the resources of film and television companies in 12 cities along the coast. It had deep influence and great authority. Hank thought for a moment before he took out the phonebook and dialed a number. At the same time in a general manager’s office of a particular network channel. Jim was excitedly looking at a piece of antique porcelain on his table w
Back to the press conference by the medical association branch. Half an hour earlier. At the scene, more than a dozen media attended while hundreds of people watched. They were mostly related agencies and normal citizens. At half-past eight, Wynn and her team in three black Mercedeses stopped at the entrance of the medical association branch office. “They’re here! It’s Beacon’s director, Wynn Johnston!” A sudden shout came from the crowd, and a group of media with cameras of different makes and sizes rushed over. When Wynn stepped down from the car, she received warm greetings from the media. “Madam Johnston, what do you have to say about Beacon’s disqualification from the medical association branch this time?” “Madam Johnston, can you confirm that your daughter belongs to your husband?” “Madam Johnston, exactly how many lovers have you had in the past? Did you rely on your body to get to this position today?” The remarks from the media were each more scathing tha
Sirius Worley was full of anger at the moment. He never imagined that Wynn would snub him and actually dared to slap him in public so brashly like that! He was livid! “You dare to hit me? B*tch! You’re asking for it!” Sirius exploded on the spot, staring at Wynn with cold eyes like he was going to swallow her whole. Several bodyguards behind Wynn also stepped forward and stood in front of her, staring at Sirius. “Mr. Worley, I appreciate your kindness, but I have to say that someone like you is really scum in the medical world. Please excuse me!” Wynn said coldly, no longer looking at Sirius. “Very well, just you wait. You’ll be begging me on your knees very soon!” Sirius glanced at the security guards brought by Wynn, waved his hands angrily, and left. He would definitely seek vengeance for this slap! After Sirius left, he walked to the door, quickly dialed a number, and gritted his teeth while saying, “Hurry up and arrange for more people to come over. I want to sha
With that said, Hendricks turned around and left. Wynn stood there. Mindy and the others also hurriedly walked over and asked, “Madam Johnston, how did it go? Did he agree?” Wynn shook her head and said, “Try to contact President Smyth of Golden City as soon as possible.” Mindy said anxiously, “We can’t get in touch with him. His phone is switched off.” Wynn frowned, turning her head to look at the press conference site. The media were still entering the premises. It seemed that she had made a decision. She said, “Let me do it.” With that, she walked aside with her mobile phone and dialed Muriel's number. There was no other way but to ask her for help. As soon as the call was connected, Muriel's contemptuous laughter sounded. “Oh, what’s the occasion today for Chairwoman Johnston to call me personally?” Wynn restrained her emotions as much as possible, lowered her stance, and said, “Muriel, on account that we’ve been classmates for so many years, please help me get in t
A few minutes later, an ambulance arrived and Wynn was rushed to the hospital. On the other side, Philip panicked after receiving Mindy’s call. He dashed out of the door immediately! Theo followed behind him closely. Two teams of bodyguards in black suits drove five black Mercedes-Benzes and hurried to the hospital! When he arrived at the hospital, Philip headed straight to the operating room. Mindy and the other colleagues were waiting at the door. As soon as she saw Philip, Mindy sobbed. “Mr. Philip, Wynn… Boohoo, it’s all my fault. I didn’t take care of her properly…” Mindy cried piteously and threw herself into Philip’s arms. Philip patted Mindy on the back, knowing that she was still young. He said, “It’s not your fault.” On the other hand, the other employees of the company were shocked when they saw Theo standing respectfully behind Philip and the two groups of bodyguards in black suits! That was Theo Zander! It was unbelievable! Philip Clarke was not a goo
Mindy was stunned for a moment, looking at Philip's leaving back. She clearly felt Philip's dormant anger! That kind of intensity, that kind of power, and that kind of coldness… It was many times stronger than that of her father! It was horrifying! Was this the real Philip Clarke? Mindy shook her head and quickly followed. At the door, several black Mercedes-Benzes were lined up with bodyguards in black suits. When Philip came out, these people respectfully opened the car door and welcomed him into the car. Mindy looked at this exaggerated scene, then at Theo who was behind Philip. She then realized something. The convoy quickly drove out of the hospital and rushed to the medical association branch. The media were dispersing from the building when the sudden appearance of the fleet of all-black Mercedes-Benzes really shocked the security guards at the door. A big shot was here? Click, click, click! All the cars’ doors opened in unison. Dozens of bodyguards i
The female receptionist was taken aback and relayed the message truthfully. Then, she said with an apologetic expression, “I’m sorry, Mr. Clarke, but Mr. Worley is not receiving any guests.” Philip shook his head slightly, glanced around, and walked straight to the side. He dragged a folding iron chair and walked over with a stoic expression. In the next second! Philip directly smashed the folding iron chair into the front desk! Boom! The front desk was smashed to pieces, shattering even the marble countertops. The entire front hall suddenly became a mess. “Ah!” Several female receptionists got a fright. They covered their ears and screamed, all squatting on the ground. They never thought that someone would ever dare to break into the medical association branch office! However, Philip just repeated his question, “Where’s Hendricks Worley?” At this time, the security guards also received notice and ran over. “Hey, this isn’t a place where you can cause trouble!”
Sirius did not answer directly but just sat down again and said, “Tsk, tsk. That's a false accusation. Who saw me doing it? It was your wife who accidentally fell by herself, that’s all.” Mindy's eyes were red as she gritted her teeth and cursed, “B*stard! Those people had obviously rushed over so suddenly. Who else could it be but you?” “Little girl, watch your words. Be careful or you won’t be able to go home at night.” Sirius glanced at her and threatened. Mindy stepped back in fright and glanced at Philip. The anger in Philip's heart was completely uncontrollable. He asked in a low voice, “Tell me, how do you want to die?” “Die?” Sirius laughed while clapping his hands. He said, “Today, I want to see who exactly is going to die.” Then, the meeting room door was pushed open. Dozens of uniformed men rushed in, all holding weapons in their hands. The very sight of them could make one have chills all over! Instantly, Philip and his men were surrounded. A touch of
Ronan and Philip moved forward and finally arrived at the human town. Philip looked around curiously and found that it was a large city. Humans had done quite well in developing a city. “If you’re not happy with this place, you can consider going to the city in the west. You can find many human territories nearby. I don’t know why humans are unwilling to live together but prefer to build cities everywhere!” Ronan was not human, so he could not understand it. “Although my mother is a human, I’m not. I only remember living in that hut since I was born. No other race is willing to accept me, including humans.” Ronan was embarrassed because he had scales on his body that were clearly visible at sea but not so much on land. Humans were unwilling to classify Ronan as a human because of that. Philip nodded, surprised to hear his pitiful plight. Not only did he not have his own race, but his mother’s race was unwilling to acknowledge him too. “That’s awful. Why don't you join u
“This is it, crystal! This little stone can get me a big bottle of wine! Since I’m lucky enough to meet you today, I’ll give it to you!” Ronan clearly had no concept of money. Philip took the stone from Ronan’s hand and found that it was no different from an energy stone. He tried to return the stone to Ronan, who rejected it. “I don't have much concept of money, but I know that money is indispensable if you want to go to the place where humans live. Just take it. I'm afraid that you’ll be detained if you don't have money. I was detained once before!” Philip was touched by Ronan’s words. He took out a bottle of wine from the space ring and handed it to Ronan. Although the wine was nothing to Philip, it was a rare treasure to Ronan, who had never tasted good wine. “What’s this?” Ronan curiously took the bottle of wine that Philip handed to him. He put it to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and was soon bursting with excitement. “This is good stuff! Do you want to sell it to m
“You’re not from a big family? In that case, how did you become so strong at such a young age?” Ronan looked at Rabbit in surprise too. “I thought you were from a big family, one of the best! After all, only such families have the power to capture summoned beasts for their descendants!” Obviously, Ronan had misunderstood Rabbit’s identity. Rabbit blinked blankly, wondering what Ronan was talking about. “Summoned beast? I'm not a summoned beast; I'm just an ordinary rabbit!” Seeing Ronan’s confusion, Rabbit smugly introduced himself. Although he had no idea what a summoned beast meant, it did not sound imposing, so Rabbit did not like it at all. Ronan was startled to hear that Rabbit was not a summoned beast but a creature with intelligence. He felt very powerful. “Indeed, he’s not a summoned beast but my pet. You can think of him as my partner. I’m more curious about this place.” Philip was puzzled, wondering what was going on in this world. He had not seen any towns so f
“This is the survival of the fittest! We were much stronger than them, so they were at our mercy, just like how we’re at your mercy now!” Someone stepped forward, his voice trembling as if he wanted to rebuke Philip. Seeing his timid appearance but bold attempt, Philip sneered, “In that case, I’m stronger than you, so there’s nothing wrong with killing you. You should pray that I won’t kill you in the cruelest way possible.” Philip raised his sword and killed the fish creature who voiced up. Any sign of weakness and these people would think they had a chance to survive. Ronan applauded Philip’s decisiveness and quickly joined the battle. Philip smiled at Ronan’s excitement. He simply wanted to vent. Over the years, he had been working so hard for his family and their future that he had almost lost sight of himself. He realized that maybe he should live for himself from now on. He wanted to become stronger and dominate the world. He knew that this was a real world. Although
At this time, a merman chased after the deep-sea fish creatures with a trident in hand. “Where do you think you’re going? Don't think I don't know that you took advantage of the chaos to massacre other villages. Since you can do such a thing, you must bear the consequences. I’m here to take your lives today!” The merman was clearly seeking justice, chasing the other party angrily. The deep-sea fish creatures escaped frantically without an explanation. “Damn that lunatic!” They did not expect that the merman was so fit, keeping up with them despite fleeing for so long. He did not seem tired at all. Meanwhile, Philip arrived and heard someone cursing. It looked like a merman. He was a force to be reckoned with. Philip could feel the huge pressure he exuded from a distance. He was definitely a powerful being who should not be trifled with. He was strong enough to drive this race to this state, which was enough to prove how extraordinary he was. The merman was startled
“They really stink. I think you should ask Aslan to do this next time. I believe he’ll enjoy this,” Rabbit said offhandedly as he led Philip in the trail of the scent. Philip smiled. He had recorded Rabbit’s statement with a projection stone. He could expect a good show once he showed it to Aslan. Rabbit had no idea that Philip had laid a trap for him. He was still hopping and leading the way. They soon arrived at a mysterious sea area that was remote and gloomy. “Did they live in such a dangerous and disgusting place?” Rabbit sighed. Sure enough, ugly creatures liked to live in dark places. Similar to the fish creatures, they used to live in a swamp too, maybe to hide their ugly appearance or something. Now that they looked better, they refused to return to the dark and damp environment again. Philip looked around without a word. He saw a stone sign on the side—deep-sea fish creatures. That should be the name of their name. The scale of them seemed quite big. “Ph
Aslan and the others had been teleported to different locations. Everyone was confused and wondered where they were. Some people appeared among some terrifying monsters and started fighting desperately as soon as they landed. Others landed in the desert where Philip was before. They looked about in puzzlement and wondered what was going on. As Philip’s followers, however, they were smart and quickly adapted to the situation. The sneaky little Rabbit was still by Philip’s side. Rabbit stayed in Philip's pocket and clung tightly to his belt the whole time. No powerful force could throw him away, so he managed to stay with Philip. “That was close. I felt a huge force just now and thought I’d be thrown out!” Rabbit felt that something was wrong when he entered. He quickly clung tightly to Philip so that they did not separate. However, that possibility still lingered in his mind, so he made preparations to deal with such a situation. Philip reached out and patted the sneaky Rabb
“Philip, I’m curious to find out what made you stay there for such a long time.” Aslan approached Philip curiously. According to his understanding of Philip, he must have encountered something good, which was why he did not leave at once. Philip smiled indifferently. “You’ll find out soon enough. It’s related to improving everyone's strength,” Philip said mysteriously. Rabbit hopped and looked at Philip anxiously. As an impatient rabbit, he could not bear seeing Philip whetting their appetites. He wanted to share the story immediately. “Since you’re so eager to tell them, go ahead and satisfy their doubts.” Philip smiled and shook his head at Rabbit’s anxiety. Rabbit was very excited to get Philip’s consent. He told everyone what they encountered there and described it so vividly that everyone felt as if they were there too. Philip realized that Rabbit was quite good at telling stories. “You have no idea how amazing that place is. It's full of ordinary creatures, but t
Philip was puzzled by everyone’s reaction. “Why aren't you leaving?” Everyone looked at each other. Some were embarrassed and stepped forward to please Philip. They took out their treasures and offered them to Philip. They were grateful to Philip for saving them and treating them with reason. Some ungrateful families sneaked out after the passage was opened without giving anything in return. Philip ignored them, but he took note of the people who tried to please him. They were smart and had a bright future. Philip was happy with them. As some people left, others followed suit. The merfolk lingered around Philip, unwilling to leave. After all, their chief was gone. No matter how powerful they were, they would never gain a foothold. Their race would be wiped out once they fell to a certain level, so everyone wanted to join Philip. At least Philip was a powerful person. It would be best if Philip was willing to help them. “Please take us in!” “The merfolk don't have many tre
