Caesar knelt on the ground and felt very aggrieved. He never imagined that he would end up like this one day. Looking at Philip in front of him, Caesar seemed to notice something unusual amid his daze. Was he really defeated? Hank kept winking at Caesar and said, “Master Bailey, if you have any trump cards, take it out now or we’ll both die!” Upon hearing this, Caesar stared at Hank closely, his pupils constricting. Then, his face slowly turned red as the veins on his arm slowly popped! He stood up angrily, snatched the phone from Philip's hand, and shouted, “Fine! You asked for it! Don’t put the blame on me!” By now, Caesar had no other choice. Philip just looked at him indifferently as if everything was under control. That was the reason why Caesar felt apprehensive. However, there was no other way. He quickly dialed the number. After a while, the call was connected. At that moment, Caesar became very humble and respectful when he said, “Madam, something h
Could there be a hidden agenda behind his mother’s accident? After a few glances at Hank and Caesar, Philip came to a decision and said, “Okay.” With that, the fully armed bodyguards released the two. Then, Philip walked to one corner and said solemnly, “If you dare to lie to me, I won't mind letting the Wallis family disappear!” Giada chuckled. “I know you’ve made a lot of investigations into your mother’s accident over the years and a lot of the evidence points to me. But if I really killed your mother, would I still be the second lady of the Clarke family?” One sentence said it all! Philip was flabbergasted! Were his investigations over the years completely wrong? Impossible! How could that be?! “Bullsh*t! I’ve investigated for so many years and every piece of evidence points to you!” Philip exclaimed angrily. Giada continued, “You’ve been misled. What I can tell you is that the hidden force behind this is beyond your imagination. If you want to fight them, you
When the call was connected, Smyth's solemn tone was heard on the other end. “Philip Clarke, I’d like to ask you to release Hendricks Worley immediately.” Philip simply chuckled and said, “President Smyth, you really don’t give up until you’re faced with the gallows.” On the other end, Smyth was sitting in a speeding car while talking grimly. “Philip, this matter involves the medical association. If you do this, you’ll be making an enemy out of us, and your wife’s company will also suffer our vengeance!” Suffer from vengeance? Philip smiled with chills in his eyes and said, “Smyth, when you decided to make a move against Beacon, you already became my enemy. And as my enemy, the only unfortunate outcome is to be destroyed by me!” Smyth immediately exploded and roared angrily. “You’re playing with fire! I’m the regional president of the medical association. If you do this, you’re offending me and the medical association!” “So what?” Philip shook his head and sneered, “It’s ju
After Philip hung up the phone, he immediately called George and said, “I need information about Golden City Medical Association and Carr Smyth.” In ten minutes, the information was sent over. Philip looked at the information in his hand, his frown getting deeper as his eyes became full of killing intent. “This Carr Smyth is really something. He’s more formidable than Hendricks and Caesar.” Anna and Theo also had a copy of the information. Anna said, “This person has done so many bad things in this country but still lives so well. He must have a strong team behind him.” “Mr. Clarke, this guy manipulated many transactions in the dark and suppressed many companies. There must be evidence about that. If we can get hold of it, it’s game over for him!” Philip nodded. When he saw several articles about Smyth kidnapping family members to intimidate the victims, his frown deepened. Theo and Anna naturally noticed that too and recalled the content of the conversation just now.
A few minutes later, Theo said, “Mr. Clarke, we found him.” Philip nodded. More than ten minutes later, Rick was playing with a dagger in his hand. On the ground was Brooklyn whose right arm had already been broken. He stared at the man coldly and said, “Send my young miss over here safely.” Brooklyn glared at Rick and roared. “Who the f*ck are you?!” Brooklyn was very confused now. He was a mercenary but could not even survive one strike from the opponent! This man’s skills were terrifying! Rick walked up to him, kicked him in the chest, and said coldly, “You’re not qualified to ask about my identity.” The burly Brooklyn was now sprawled on the ground like a shivering puppy, groaning in pain. However, Rick turned a blind eye to all this and said lightly, “You still have three minutes. If I don’t see my young miss by then, I’ll send you and your men to see God!” At this moment, Brooklyn finally realized that he was in deep trouble! He could clearly read the threat
After hanging up the phone, the anger on Philip's face disappeared and was replaced by a sneer. Smyth was dead for sure. Theo and Anna also looked at each other, feeling sorry for Smyth. He could not fathom Philip’s way of doing things. Very soon, Philip and his men drove to the medical association branch office that Smyth had proposed to meet up. Smyth was sitting in the office at the moment, hugging his secretary. He felt that he had won. When Philip arrived, not only would he order him to release Hendricks, but he would also demand a fortune from him! For such a large enterprise like the Beacon Group, he would get at least hundreds of millions! Very soon, the intercom rang. “President Smyth, they’re here.” “Very good, bring them up.” Smyth smiled and motioned for the female secretary to leave. He could hardly wait. After a while, the office door was pushed open and the assistant walked in with Philip. “Mr. Clarke.” Smyth laughed, got up, and stretched his h
Smyth was very surprised, his face full of disbelief. How could this be? Was he not just a good-for-nothing son-in-law? How did he suddenly become the big boss of Milanelson Angel Investment Group? Thereafter. Philip said calmly, “Yes, I am.” He admitted it. Smyth swallowed, his heart full of joy! He was overwhelmed with ecstasy. A big piece of cake had been delivered right to his doorstep! Milanelson Angel Investment Group was said to be worth hundreds of billions! “Mr. Clarke, in that case, let’s stop beating around the bush. Retract the allegation against Hendricks Worley and I’ll give you your daughter back. How about that?” Smyth said with a broad grin. In his eyes, Philip was already a cash cow. Philip frowned slightly, turned his head to look at Smyth, and asked, “That’s it?” Smyth was startled. He did not understand what Philip meant and said, “Do you have any questions?” Philip smiled, looked at Smyth, and said, “By asking those questions, weren’t you
“President Smyth, something serious has happened! The headquarters just issued an order to revoke your position as president!” “What? How could this be?” Smyth panicked. “Also, the related departments in Golden City turned up with the evidence of your crimes. All the properties under your name have been frozen!” When Smyth heard this, he felt as if his vision had gone dark and his head was buzzing. He glared at Philip and roared hysterically. “Did you do this? Don’t you want your daughter anymore?” Philip looked at the frantic Smyth indifferently, walked up to him, and kicked him before saying coldly, “You can call and ask your subordinate where my daughter is. By the way, his name is Brooklyn, right?” Smyth instantly became agitated when he heard this. “What do you mean?” Philip said mildly, “Just call and you’ll find out.” Smyth called Brooklyn anxiously and heard a sneer from the other end, “Smyth? Hello.” That was not Brooklyn’s voice! Oh no! Smyth hung up i
Aslan and the others were aware of Akash’s fake identity too. No one wanted to interact with him, but they had to greet him to avoid exposing themselves. At the same time, Marina arrived with her father and other family members. To be on the safe side, they did not meet Philip collectively but left some backup plans. “Marina, as your father, I have to remind you that I won’t treat him kindly if I find out that he’s not a good person,” the chief said solemnly. He felt a little uneasy at the thought of meeting his daughter’s crush. He wondered if Philip had a good character, how many people he had in his family, and whether he was worthy of his precious daughter. However, even if Philip was worthy, he would not agree to their relationship. After all, they belonged to two different species. What if they gave birth to a fish creature? The beautiful merfolk would never allow those ugly creatures to tarnish their reputation. “Dad, you think too much. I have no ideas about him
The call between the two ended after a brief exchange. Rodney smiled in disdain. He was aware of his mission, but he had no idea that the Loony he was looking for was right next to him. He only knew that Philip was quite strong and had many treasures on hand. “Everything will be different once I get the elf water. At that time, this bunch of stupid guys…” Although the demons could not comprehend the book very well, they understood the general content written on it. They needed elf water if they wanted to get rid of the identity of demons. Although it was harmful to them, it could purify their bodies in combination with certain spells. Unfortunately, they just found the secret and finally found the elves when they realized that someone had wiped out the elves, which was infuriating. Rodney found Philip because he knew that Philip had the elf water. Loony was his second mission.… The night passed quickly, and Philip and Loony were chatting so exuberantly that they forgot
“I have to take responsibility for it. Demons were not so strong back then. They became so powerful because of my book. That book can be considered a divine artifact, and its contents have a great effect on all creatures.” Philip was interested in Loony’s explanation. He wanted to know why the book had such a powerful effect. “Everyone always calls me a lunatic. Indeed, I do go crazy from time to time, but I never lose my awareness. I know what I should do and what the consequences will be if the book falls into the wrong hands.” Loony looked at Philip earnestly, clearly asking for a favor. In his opinion, only Philip could save him. “That book is the first half, and its content is difficult to understand. Even I could only comprehend a little. I hope you can help me get it back. If you succeed, I’ll give you the second half. It’d be best if you can practice it.” To be honest, Philip was not in favor of this suggestion. Practicing such things might affect his path and bring h
“Is that person human?” the chief grasped the key point and asked the crucial question. Everyone nodded. They knew Philip’s identity and did not care that he was human. They saw him as a friend. “I entered Philip’s world by chance, and he helped me return. If it weren't for him, those things would probably have killed me by now. They're very strong, indeed.” Marina felt a lingering fear when she recalled past events. She knew how powerful those ugly creatures were. The fish creatures had become very strong for some reason as if they could overwhelm the merfolk at any time. “He opened the passage to this world, sent me back, and restored our people back to health. We would've died if not for his help. Philip is our friend, not foe,” Marina defended Philip. The chief was heartbroken to hear his daughter defend a man like this. His precious daughter had grown up or she would not have said such a thing. “Okay, in that case, I look forward to seeing this young man named Philip
“If you don't save me right now, I’ll die and leave you with nowhere to go!” Abele screamed in her mind. Very soon, Akash felt a strong force surging over him. The strong force broke his hold and burned his hand. “Such a strong burning force. What did you encounter to become so powerful?” Akash was taken aback, surprised that Abele was so lucky and became so powerful. He was very envious and thought of taking the ability from her. “You don't need to worry about it!” Abele clutched her neck in fear and ordered the elves behind her. “Leave. Don’t fight this person head-on. His technique is very strange!” Abele took the lead and ran away, clearly afraid of the other party. Akash did not give chase. He thought it was enough to drive them away. He was afraid that the matter would get out of hand and attract Philip's attention. He still wanted to remain undercover, disguised as Akash. He had no idea that Philip had been hiding in the dark and watching as everything unfolded, no
“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
