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
This time, Philip almost fell from the couch. He grinned and said, “How is that possible? I don’t have that ability. I only have a bit of money. I think someone must have lodged a report against them.” Wynn frowned at Philip. She kept feeling that he was lying. However, she could not think of a reason for him to do so. Sensing Wynn’s suspicious glance, Philip said guiltily, “Why are you looking at me that way? Don’t you know what I look like? Okay, now that your company’s affairs have been resolved, you should take good care of your health. This time, you’re not allowed to go anywhere. Do you hear me?” Wynn gave her consent, continued watching the news on the screen, and then looked back at Philip who was still on the sofa reading the newspaper with his legs propped. Was it really not him? “By the way, Phil, when are you going to introduce your friend to me?” Wynn suddenly asked while drinking her soup. Philip was startled. Wynn was asking a lot of questions today.
Martha immediately turned around, took Wynn's little hand, and persuaded her. “Wynnie, I’m trying to take care of you, of course. How could this hospital be compared to me? So, let’s go home and let me take care of you, okay?” “It’s alright, Mom. Staying in the hospital is fine. The nurses take good care of me, and they have the most advanced equipment here.” Wynn declined Martha’s kind intentions. This time, Martha was getting anxious. She was here today to persuade Wynn so that she could take care of her. That way, she could move back to the villa in a justified manner. “How could that be good enough? Mom has gone through this before. Who can take care of you better than me? You’re my daughter. Do you think I’d harm you?” Martha immediately retorted. Her intentions were very obvious. She would not relent until Wynn agreed. Wynn continued to decline painstakingly. “Mom, it’s really alright. I can stay in the hospital.” After this sentence, Martha covered her face and sta
Philip thought for a moment, forced out a smile to cover his tracks, and said, “It’s nothing. Have an apple.” With that, he passed the apple in his hand to Wynn. Wynn glanced at him a couple of times but did not pursue the question and began to frown instead. What was he trying to say just now? In the afternoon, Philip returned to the villa. As soon as he entered the villa, he saw Martha and Amelia on the couch discussing something. Martha just glanced at him lightly without acknowledging him. Philip ignored her too. The two acted like strangers. After Philip went upstairs, Amelia said to Martha, “Martha, you’ve no idea what a hard time I had when you were kicked out of the villa. I didn’t even dare to show up in front of him for fear that he’d drive me away.” Indeed. After Martha was kicked out the other day, Amelia received a warning. If she wanted to stay on, she was not allowed to cause any trouble. Martha snorted coldly and said, “What are you afraid of?
“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
