At this moment, Louis XXVI arrogantly pointed at Philip and roared. “Damn it, you must apologize to me in front of everyone! I’ll also break that hand of yours! That’s the price of your disrespect to me!” However, Philip stared indifferently at the furious Louis and said, “Duke Louis, in my opinion, you’re nothing more than an ordinary person. Your so-called dukedom poses no threat to me at all.” “What? How dare you look down on the Louis royal family?” Louis roared. Beside him, Alice also chided. Seeing this scene, Steven's heart was broken. Fennel gently patted Steven's shoulder and said, “Steven, you must understand that in Alice's eyes, you may not be worth a dime. Don’t cheapen your love. Since she looks down on you as a viscount, why do you still want to be her lapdog? There are plenty of good women in this world. You should learn to give up.” Steven glanced at Fennel before he looked at Alice, who had completely lost her poise as a princess and started spewing curses
Philip, Fennel, and Steven gave the high and mighty Louis XXVI a thorough beating! The youngest duke of Country Y had lost his entire noble image and fell to the ground wretchedly. He covered his head and shouted desperately. “Ow, f*ck, stop! I'm Duke Louis XXVI! Steven, you damned viscount! This is insubordination! You're finished! Your Smith family is finished!” Louis XXVI roared. “I must return and tell the Queen about this! I want the Queen to revoke the noble rights of your Smith family!” “Louis XXVI, you b*stard, how dare you threaten me? I’ll kick you to death!” Steven was furious. Once he started, he could not stop. He lifted his foot and kicked Louis XXVI, who was lying on the ground covering his head. He cursed, “Do you want to complain about me? Do you think the Smith family can be messed with?” In the face of Steven's ferocity, the onlookers erupted in discussions. “Oh my, what did I see?” “Steven is so scary. He even dares to beat Duke Louis?” “It’s ove
Steven smiled, nodded in response, and said, “I'd better call you Mr. Clarke.” Philip was not bothered. They stood at the entrance of the castle and watched the intoxicating pool party inside. Many prominent figures in the West were at the scene, mingling and chatting. Philip and the others also found a corner and sat down for the time being. A waiter walked over and served them wine. Philip looked at the frolicking crowd nearby, then asked Fennel and Steven in a low voice, “Is the private event tonight this pool party? Is the election of the gods such child’s play in the West?” Without waiting for Fennel to speak, Steven explained, “Mr. Clarke, you’ve misunderstood. This is just an appetizer before the private party. The main event will come later. What you see now is just the prelude. The real big shots are usually inside.” As Steven said that, he motioned with his eyes for Philip and Fennel to look at the second floor of the splendid castle. Philip looked up. Indeed,
At this moment, Wynn and Shane appeared together, looking dazzling and noble under the spotlight. It was the first time that Philip saw such a noble and elegant side of Wynn. No, to be precise, Wynn in the past was very approachable. Even if she attended business events and dressed for the occasion, she would not look like this. That was because the current Wynn appeared to carry an unfamiliar sense of distance. Philip stood up abruptly, which startled Fennel and Steven beside him. Fennel took it in stride. He recognized Wynn, so when he saw Wynn and Shane walking out together, a chill flashed at the corner of his eyes. He asked, “Why is Wynn here?” Philip shook his head in bafflement, but it seemed that Wynn was here to attend this party. Steven smiled, got up, and said, “Mr. Clarke, this is the important person I said you may want to meet. According to my information, she’s your wife.” Steven did not yet understand the implications and only thought that Philip would b
Wynn glanced coldly at Philip who was pinned to the ground, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. This man was very strange. For a brief moment just now, her heart actually ached. What was wrong with her? She did not know the man in front of her at all, so why would her heart suddenly ache when she saw him being pinned to the ground? Shane smiled and said, “Okay.” Then, he stared coldly at Philip, who was pinned to the ground. He said with a sneer, “Guards, throw him out.” With that command, the bodyguards dragged Philip up and out through the back door. Philip stared at Wynn who turned to leave. He could not believe that Wynn could not recognize him even though he was right in front of her. They had only been separated for half a month! How could this happen? Why would this happen? What had happened to Wynn? Did the Lovelace family do this? “Wynn! Wynnie! I’m Philip, your husband! Don’t you even remember Mila?” Philip roared. In the distance, Wynn sto
Philip turned his head, looked at Steven, and took the document from Steven's hand. He looked through it carefully before the veins on his forehead throbbed. He roared. “Damn the Lovelace family!” Seeing Philip’s state, Fennel and Steven rushed over to take a look. When they saw the contents, they were stunned as well! It turned out that the reason why Wynn did not recognize Philip was that the Lovelace family had tampered with her memory! They actually used the most advanced technology to rewrite Wynn's memory! Now, Wynn was just a puppet for the Lovelace family to make a comeback! Hiss! The air fell into dead silence. Fennel said furiously, “What the hell is the Lovelace family trying to do? How dare they do something like this? I’ll arrange for manpower at once. Even if we have to grab her by force, we’ll get Wynn out tonight!” With that said, Fennel was about to call the Strategist. However, Philip suddenly said, “No need! Let’s go back and plan this out carefully
“I got it.” Shane nodded in response and said, “How are the preparations for the god election going?” Cleo replied, “Don’t worry, I’m taking care of it.” … Back at Fennel’s private manor, Philip, Fennel, and Steven sat together. Fennel’s face was grim as he asked, “What do you plan to do?” Philip was silent as he looked at the intelligence sent by Steven. After a while, he said to Steven, “I need more information about the Lovelace family in the West. We can negotiate the price.” Steven frowned and said, “Mr. Clarke, it's not that I don't want to help you, but my authority is limited. The authority lies with my father. I need to ask him about this.” Philip nodded. Steven quickly got up, walked aside, and made a call. “Father, this is Steven. I'm with Mr. Clarke now. He needs more information about the Lovelace family,” Steven said respectfully to the person on the other end of the line. A stern voice rang out. “Steven, you should know that any information comes with
Fennel said solemnly, “Based on the current situation, the Lovelace family has dealings with several major sacred halls. I don’t think these sacred halls will let you make a move against them so easily. Moreover, this is an extraordinary period. Shane Lovelace is competing for the position of the new god. Once he succeeds, these sacred halls will gain even more benefits. So, in my opinion, they should step in and stop it. After all, this place is different from our country. Human relations are not important, only profits. Furthermore, although your Clarke family controls a huge chunk of the economy, the rest is in the hands of the West. Here, they’re the only kings, while the Clarke family’s power can hardly penetrate.” After hearing Fennel out, Philip fell silent. He understood Fennel’s meaning. It would be difficult to make a move against the Lovelace family in the West. It was tantamount to threatening the interests of several sacred halls. To oppose the Lovelace family was to
