Philip was playing with Mila in the room and had no idea that he was being targeted by Cecil. Theo and Anna were also in the room, discussing the underground chamber of commerce that was to take place two days later. “Mr. Clarke, a total of 14 underground forces will be participating in the event this time. Four are from the South River District, three from Capital City, and six from Golden City. Among them, the strongest contenders are the Hane family of Capital City, the Fiery Koi Gang of Golden City, and the combined forces of the four overlords in the South River District.” Theo carefully detailed the information, his expression a little serious. After all, the Hane family and Fiery Koi alone were enough to wipe the tables clean! Such forces were not something Theo Zander from little Riverdale could easily provoke. Therefore, Theo was very worried about the underground chamber of commerce. Philip teased Mila and asked with a smile, “Is that all?” Philip could hardly b
Theo could not understand his intentions and asked, “Mr. Clarke, who are you going to deal with?” Philip smiled faintly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes as he said, “Do you think a man like Cecil can keep his cool?” Theo frowned and said, “Cecil is a brawler and holds grudges. We had a conflict with him today. If I were him, I’d probably attack you.” “It’s not a probability but an affirmative,” Philip said. “I understand.” Theo nodded. Philip was going to deal with Cecil. However, would it take so many people to deal with him? Philip seemed to read Theo’s doubts and said with chills in his eyes, “Don’t misunderstand. Not only do I want to deal with Cecil but also the entire South River District, including the rest of the participants in the underground chamber of commerce. If I’m not wrong, we can expect to see some blood this time. We should make early preparations. Tell your people to enter Phoenicia in batches and blend in with the tourist groups. We don’t want to a
Philip was also helpless. He turned to Anna and said with a wink, “Take care of Mila.” Then, he was dragged away from the Fenix Hotel by Melody. The sunset scene in Phoenicia was really beautiful, enough for it to be featured in a nature documentary. The sky was full of red sunset clouds. As it was autumn, the weather was cool and very suitable for going out shopping. Phoenicia was also a famous cultural and historical town with small bridges and flowing water. The buildings were made from red bricks and the paths from green tiles. There were more than a dozen famous historical streets in this town alone. The alleys were numerous and countless. It was a typical ancient historical township. Just when Philip and Melody left the Fenix Hotel, three suspicious-looking men in colorful shirts who were led by a tattooed man with a crew cut entered the building. As soon as they entered the lobby, the tattooed man directly nodded to the male attendant at the front desk. The mal
In less than a minute, Anna was pressed on the ground by the burly man. He was choking her in his hold! Anna’s eyes were bruised, and she was bleeding from her mouth and nose. Her face was flushed, and she was panting hard. “Crusty, that’s enough. Let’s hurry up!’ The tattooed man walked in and glanced at the chaotic state of the room after the fight. There was a slight frown between his eyebrows. After that, he walked toward the bed and flipped the sheets over. Mila was hiding under the bed, trembling all over. Her black jewel-like eyes were staring at Anna who was being pressed on the ground. She cried and shouted, “Anna!” Crying, she wanted to run toward Anna. Anna was wounded all over and pressed to the ground. She turned to look at the running Mila while squeezing out a shout. “Run… Run!” Mila felt sorry for Anna as she stretched out her little arms and ran over crying. However! The tattooed man frowned as his face flashed with extreme impatience. With one hand
At this time, Philip was being dragged around the town by Melody. At night, the scenery of Phoenicia was like a painting. The ancient streets were packed with tourists. The roadside was filled with different stalls. There were vendors selling fruit, snacks, souvenirs, jewelry, and so on. Melody skipped around happily like a 13-year-old girl. “Hey, Philip, is this pretty?” Melody picked up a masquerade mask, put it over her face, and asked Philip with a grin. Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, shook his head, and said, “It doesn't look good.” Melody rolled her eyes at him and said, “What a spoilsport.” Then, she seemed to have found something interesting and ran over joyfully like an elf. It was a musical instrument made of bones. It was a souvenir sold by an old woman. “Young miss, would you like to buy one?” The old woman narrowed her eyes and said with a grin. Melody fiddled with the instrument and tried to put it on her thin, rosy mouth before blo
Philip could not do anything but follow Melody into the Phoenix Pavilion. However, not long after Philip and Melody entered, a convoy of four black Mercedes arrived at the entrance of Phoenix Pavilion. The pompadour was grand. The convoy stopped and the bodyguard opened the door of the Mercedes-Benz S series that was at the center. The first thing that landed on the red carpet was a pair of slender and white feet stepping on crystal high heels. Then came the white wide-leg silk trousers. The person had a tiny waist that could be held with one grip. She was wearing a low-cut white tunic sleeveless jacket with wide sunglasses and a red lace sunshade on her head. Overwhelming! An unparalleled beauty indeed! The moment the woman got out of the car and took off her sunglasses, the crowd at the door was stunned by her beauty! “Miss Clarke, welcome.” At the same time at the gate of Phoenix Pavilion, several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes were approaching. Mo
Philip calmly whispered a few words into Melody’s ear. Immediately, Melody’s gaze became extremely hostile. This ugly man actually harbored evil intentions toward Wynn! Melody could not take it lying down. She stepped forward, stood in front of Philip, and scolded Juan, “You’re nothing but a toad who wants to get the princess! What a sleazebag!” Juan frowned and looked upset as he scrutinized the woman before him. She looked like she was in her early 20s with a pretty appearance and a fiery figure. He really did not expect Philip to do this behind Wynn’s back. “Hehe.” Juan sneered and totally ignored Melody’s verbal abuse toward him. Instead, he turned toward Philip and said coldly, “Philip, if I tell Wynn about your affair, what do you think will happen?” Philip’s face immediately turned dark. Melody immediately retorted, “The f*ck are you talking about? Did you see me having an affair with Philip? Why is your mind so dirty? It’s exactly like you, a fleabag!” Juan
In a luxurious private box on the third floor, Juan nursed his bruised nose and swollen face. He smashed the tea set angrily and cursed, “Damn you, Philip! I won’t forget this!” “Arrange two men and keep an eye on them. I want to know what they’re up to!” Through the mahogany window of the suite on the third floor, Juan looked down at the exhibition hall on the first floor below. Phoenix Pavilion was a circular building structure, just like an ancient theater. At the same time, in the largest most luxurious and extravagant suite on the third floor, a gorgeous woman stood next to the window while looking down at the movement on the first floor with her arms across her chest. Her appearance was truly breathtaking. Her bright eyes were locked on the two figures walking around the exhibition hall on the first floor. No one knew who she was looking at or what she was thinking. They just saw a smile slowly appearing on the corners of her mouth. This smile made the entire Ph
