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
In his fear, Sirius threw a punch at Philip! Unfortunately... Philip simply grabbed his fist with his bare hands! Crack! Sirius watched as his fist was directly crushed! “Argh! You son of a b*tch! I’m going to kill you!” Sirius cursed frantically, his entire face already turning red. “Ignorant fool!” Philip sneered, and after that, he directly grabbed Sirius by the collar before pushing him out of the window! Whoosh! Sirius immediately peed in his pants! The wind whistled in his ears and whipped his hair into a mess. “Ah! Pull me in! Hendricks won’t let you get away with this!” Sirius desperately howled in fright. Panic! Fear! Half of his body was lifted out of the window. This was more than a dozen floors. If he fell, he would be immediately reduced to minced meat. “Let me ask you again, did you arrange for someone to do this? Think carefully before you answer. You only have one life,” Philip said coldly. “No… I didn’t!” Sirius was still adamant.
Such arrogance! He actually wanted President Smyth to talk to him. Who did he think he was?! No one ever dared to speak to him in this manner. Philip Clarke was the first! What did it matter? Hendricks did not pay any heed to Philip at all. What could a good-for-nothing son-in-law like him do? Hendricks chuckled. “Mr. Clarke, you’re very courageous indeed! You dare to come to our medical association branch to make trouble? Are you here for your wife’s company? It’s impossible, of course. The cancellation of Beacon’s qualifications is a done deal. You should go back to where you came from.” Go back? Philip sneered, “Hendricks Worley, are you right in your head? I’m here today to watch the Worley brothers fall from grace.” Fall from grace? Hendricks frowned. He could not help but feel that this man in front of him was not so simple. He was different than what the rumors outside made him out to be. “Are you kidding me? This is my territory. Who dares to talk to me
A female assistant walked in quickly and shouted in shock, “Mr. Worley, we suddenly received five billion in our account!” Chink! Instantly, the entire conference room fell into a pin-drop silence! Hendricks was in disbelief and asked repeatedly, “Are you sure? Five billion?!” The female assistant nodded with certainty and even showed Hendricks the transaction details. At one glance, Hendricks already knew that something was amiss! He stared at Philip fixedly. This guy actually transferred five billion to him just like that! Who the hell was he? At this moment, Hendricks was full of apprehension. He understood very well that a person who could transfer five billion at will was definitely not an existence he could easily provoke! The combined value of the Worley brothers was merely a few hundred million! Terrifying! At this moment, Sirius just learned of the transfer of five billion and immediately whispered in Hendricks’s ears, his gaze full of murderous intent!
“You… You scheming son of a b*tch!” Hendricks’s eyes widened as he stared at Philip incredulously. Damn it! He still refused to let them off the hook despite paying the three billion! Obviously, he had not planned to let the brothers leave right from the very start! Philip sneered, “Hendricks Worley, I’ve never intended to let you off. I already said that the Worley brothers will meet their downfall today!” Hahaha! Hendricks laughed, not intending to conceal anything any longer. He roared angrily, yelling, “Philip Clarke! Always leave a way out for others and don’t drive us to our wits’ end! We’re not pushovers! I have the medical association backing me up. If you dare to lay a finger on me, you, Beacon, and your wife will pay a hefty price for it!” Hendricks had no other choice but to make use of the medical association to threaten the other party. He realized that Philip was serious about not letting him go. “The medical association, huh? Hehe, then I’m not afraid t
At Caesar Bailey’s single-unit villa. Although Hank York had just called to inform him that the matter was resolved, he was still uneasy. The reason was simple. Caesar had no idea who was behind the attack on him this time. Moreover, the opponent's move was clearly aimed to screw him over! Caesar had been in this business for so many years and had not faced any tough opponents so far. Furthermore, his circle was not only in Riverdale but also in Golden City and Capital City. He was Caesar Bailey—one of the three big names in the entertainment industry. Who would he be afraid of? That kind of person simply did not exist. However, if that person made a move against him, then he needed to be on guard. “Robbie, are you sure the other party is nothing but a live-in son-in-law?” Caesar suddenly asked. This was because he recalled Philip's previous threats and warnings to him. Moreover, they were exposed shortly after Philip threatened him. It was too much of a coincid
Fitz felt particularly bad at the thought that he failed to protect his people. He vowed to take revenge. People of other races shared the same thoughts. Everyone thought that their people had gone out to seek ways to leave but were met with an accident. Unexpectedly, they were harmed by the spider people, which was simply despicable and unacceptable. “You just need to sacrifice one more person for everyone to leave this dangerous place and lift the curse from us,” Weaver said. Everyone's eyes turned bloodshot at his words, shocked that Weaver would say that so openly. “Hehe, you’re really bold to perform a sacrifice. Why not use one of your own?” Fitz laughed and stared at Weaver. Weaver scowled. Of course, the idea crossed his mind, but the records stated that they had to use other races for sacrifice. Using their own people as sacrifice would void it, so they had to use others. This would not only reduce the other party’s manpower but also save a lot of effort. However,
Philip wanted to figure out what the spider people were up to. It looked like they had been planning this for a long time, which was terrifying. He had to let the others know about this. Everyone had the right to know. Moreover, the pitiful magpie woman was scared out of her wits. Philip had to bring her home. “Let's go back now. We’ll explore this place later. Do you want to stay here or go out with us?” Philip looked at Celeste curiously. He did not think she was brave enough to venture out. Sure enough, Celeste tugged at the corner of her clothes as she pondered. “I'll go out with you!” Celeste finally decided after much deliberation. Since she had decided to follow Philip, there was no point in hiding here anymore. She had to pluck up the courage. Celeste had lived in the forest for very long and had never gone out before, so she was curious about the outside world. “I want to see the outside world!” Celeste said nervously. Philip simply nodded without a word. The
At this point, Philip sprang into action. He appeared in front of the other party, catching them off guard. “Who allowed you to kill people for no reason?” The spider people were shocked by Philip’s sudden appearance. They were frightened to see someone there, and he was none other than the human who had strayed into this place by accident. The spiders panicked and wanted to run, but Philip quickly released Puffy. The spider people could not escape because of the curse placed on them and also because of Puffy's existence. The passage only allowed entry, not exit. When anyone stepped into that passage, they would not only come under Puffy’s attack but also suffer a gut-wrenching pain. They felt something was wrong when they tried to escape. Someone noticed Puffy approaching them and yelled in fear, “It’s that deadly thing!” Someone recognized Puffy and ran away screaming. They had no chance of winning against Puffy, so they had no choice but to run. Seeing someone running aw
Philip could tell that Celeste wanted to help, but she was too weak to do anything. “Don’t worry so much. Let’s wait and see what happens. If possible, we won’t stand by and do nothing. These people are simply outrageous.” Philip did not have a good impression of the spider people, and this incident made it worse. “Not bad!” Rabbit hopped onto Celeste’s shoulder excitedly. Ever since he found out that Celeste had no ability, he liked her even more. He liked people who had no combat power. Except for that extra eye, there was nothing strange about her. Besides, she was quite a beautiful woman, so Rabbit was fond of her. “Philip will take care of it. Don’t worry about it. He’s an outstanding man who fights for justice. You’ll have a good life if you follow Philip, especially since you have that ability but are powerless to take care of yourself. I’m sure you need someone to protect you,” Rabbit chattered away. Rabbit knew how special Celeste’s ability was. She would be of gr
Celeste seemed simple and kind, and after she told Philip everything she knew, Philip and Rabbit gradually changed their minds about her for the better. “We actually learned such a big secret this time. What a surprise!” Philip exclaimed. He followed Celeste to the altar, which was very far away. Before they reached the altar, they smelled a strong stench of blood. Philip frowned at this unexpected development. Rabbit covered his nose in surprise at the strong stench of blood. “Wait, I don’t think it’s human blood.” Philip sensed that the blood came from the few pitiful races. “I can smell it. Except for the spider people, I smell the blood of other races!” At this moment, a soft sound came from the side. Celeste quickly pulled Philip and Rabbit to hide in the corner. Celeste had lost the ability to be invisible, so she could only take Philip to hide in a panic. She knew that they could not expose themselves. “Someone is coming. Stay here and don’t do anything. You’ll f
“No one ever comes to my place. You must be outsiders.” Celeste was curious, wondering who Philip was. Celeste knew about the four unique races, but Philip’s appearance and form did not fit any of them. “You’re right. I’m an outsider. I wanted to know something, so I came to the forest. It’s best if you can give me an answer. I don’t intend to harm anyone. If you can answer my questions, I’ll leave and remove the curse on you as well,” Philip persuaded her. He felt that the woman was quite sincere, different from what he imagined. In that case, there was no need to make things difficult for her. Besides, he did not feel a murderous vibe in her, so she had probably never done anything bad. Philip had no reason to make things difficult for someone who liked to hide and sing. “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I know, but I don’t really know much. I usually stay in my own territory and have no contact with the outside world. Even the other races don't know of my existence.” Rabbit
Philip felt that there was no problem with his hearing. Someone was humming a song, and the tune sounded very strange and spooky in the dark forest. Rabbit frowned and nodded. He also heard the strange sound and was scared. “Who has nothing better to do but to sing here?” Rabbit nervously grabbed the corner of Philip's clothes, afraid that Philip would leave him behind. Philip shook his head. According to the others, no one would come here for no reason. Due to various dangers in the forest, they would only wander around the edge without seeking trouble in the depths. In that case, the abrupt singing voice was very strange, indeed. “Philip, don't be nervous. Stay calm.” Rabbit's voice was trembling. Although Rabbit kept telling Philip to stay calm, he was already freaking out, so scared that he nearly wanted to run away. Philip knew Rabbit’s character, so he did not comment. He simply observed the surroundings and listened carefully to the sound, which was so ethereal tha
Philip took Puffy along and quickly arrived in a forest where the other races usually hunted, so they should not face any danger here. As soon as Philip left, a woman appeared in the corner and looked in the direction where Philip left with a conflicted look on her face. “Should I follow him?” Ariadna had been left behind in the snake people’s village. She had no friends, and no one paid her any attention. Sometimes, they even displayed their ridicule and disdain for her. She did not get good treatment even though she was a junior from the outside world. In desperation, Ariadna decided to follow Philip. Unexpectedly, she saw Philip with a cute kid the next second. Ariadna was surprised to see that Philip had such a big and cute child. “Wait, that kid looks a little weird.” Due to the distance, Ariadna could not see what the kid looked like, but his color and body shape seemed different from that of normal people. After much deliberation, Ariadna decided to tag along, co
“I’ll look around and find out what’s going on. Don’t worry about me. Look for Ronan if anything crops up.” Philip decided to leave Ronan in charge. Ronan did not object. He knew that Philip wanted to train him. He rarely interacted with others, so he had poor social skills. He had improved with Philip’s help, but his skills were still nothing compared to Philip’s subordinates. He was deeply moved by the opportunity that Philip had given him. “Sure enough, heroes will emerge from the youth. You two will have a bright future!” Wren said excitedly. Philip did not comment. After a few pleasantries, he wandered around with Rabbit. Selma and her people had no time for Philip. They finally found their predecessors, so they had many questions to solve. Philip was most interested in getting to the bottom of this mysterious place. It felt more like a cage designed to trap them. It was devoid of rich energy and other resources suitable for them. What was the purpose of the person b
