Upon hearing this, Charles and Martha fell silent. Philip had made it clear enough. If Martin and Bernard really did something illegal, Philip would not let them off the hook. After much hesitation, Charles asked, “Can you not take it to the extreme? After all, they’re my second and third brothers. They’re Wynn’s uncles.” Philip thought about it and replied, “Dad, what if they had tried to send Wynn to prison and wanted to kill the two of you?” Martha immediately panicked at his words and shouted, “Philip, in that case, be tough on them! Take things to the extreme!” Martha did not wish to die. Charles was very surprised and hurt that his brothers would backstab him. Charles shook his head, got up helplessly, and left the room. Wynn looked at Charles’ departing back and felt very sad. She suddenly thought that her father had aged a lot at that moment. “Philip, if possible, I still hope that you won’t be too tough on my uncles.” Wynn raised her eyebrows and looked at Ph
Very well. This woman turned out to be Ruby Ford. What was she doing in Uppercreek? “Damn it! I was wondering who it was. I didn't think it was you, the wimp!” Ruby’s expression was full of displeasure as she patted the dust off her hips unhappily. Philip only chuckled and stood aside awkwardly. “I didn’t expect that after such a long time, you’re still such a loser. What are you doing here?” Ruby looked at Philip smugly while sizing him up. F*ck! Ruby felt very upset at the thought of the embarrassing scene in front of Philip back then. Later, after much inquiry, she learned that Philip’s family was rich but she also heard that they had gone bankrupt! He was still a loser! “Nothing, I'm just here to take a look,” Philip replied. “Take a look? At what?” Ruby’s pretty face darkened. Then, when something came to mind, her jaw dropped as she asked with disdain, “I see. Is it because your Clarke Group has gone bankrupt and Beacon has also been taken over by your uncle
Ruby was stunned and looked at Philip incredulously. A second later, she laughed in exasperation and said to Philip mockingly, “What did you say? Can you even do anything to me?” Philip did not speak and clenched his fists, expressing his emotions through his eyes. Ruby pointed at his nose and scolded, “Rubbish! A piece of trash like you dares to do anything to me? I’m the manager of the public relations department of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. In terms of position and status, how can you be compared to me? “Do you think you can act arrogant just because you used to be rich? You’re nothing but a dog right now. Do you really think of yourself as a human being?” Ruby cursed like a shrew and said harsh words. Philip’s face changed, and his heart was full of anger. He said, “So what if you’re the PR manager? Believe it or not, one word from me and you’ll be out of here!” Ruby almost died of laughter. This fool, Philip Clarke, could actually say such arrogant word
Philip’s temper flared. After all, he was the heir of the Clarke family, and even this chamber of commerce belonged to him. Although he kept a low profile, he could not allow these bugs to harass and look down on him. “You’re pretty tough, huh?” The security captain, Dave Carter, looked at Philip with sarcasm. Was this silly kid not right in the head? Did Philip not see his people standing behind him? How dare he act tough? He was simply putting himself at gunpoint and looking for death! “Come on, boys, kick him out for me!” The corners of Dave’s eyes froze as he said viciously, “It's really an interesting day today, meeting a blind idiot with no foresight.” In a flash, several security guards rushed over and pushed Philip to drive him away. Suddenly! An angry rebuke rang out at the entrance of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce! “Stop it!” Hoyt Luther had run down with his assistant. As soon as he went out, he saw a group of people surrounding Young Master Clarke
“I can’t afford to have you calling me Brother Clarke.” Philip sneered and said, “You’re the manager of the public relations department of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. Who am I? A loser who’s applying for a job as a security guard.” Ruby knew that Philip was making fun of her ignorance. With a self-conscious look, she thought about it and once again bent over to apologize. “Brother Clarke, I really made a horrible mistake this time. I was blind and looked down on you. I beg you, on account of my past relationship with Howard, please don’t drive me away.” Ruby was afraid. It had not been easy for her to get a job with a high salary and prestige. If she lost this job, she would surely regret it! Philip glanced at Ruby and waved his hand. “I don't want to see you again.” Then, he turned to Dave Carter, the security captain who was standing at the side. At this time, Dave looked as if he had seen a ghost. He quickly bent down and apologized, “Young Master Clarke, I’m s
With a sneer, Philip said, “Bring him up. You can handle him while I observe on the side.” “Yes, Young Master Clarke,” Hoyt replied. A few minutes later, Liam approached with a face full of smiles. He stretched his hand out and said fawningly, “Oh, Director Luther, we’re finally meeting. I’m full of excitement and anticipation.” Hoyt smiled slightly and said, “Manager Johnston, you’re too kind.” Seeing that Hoyt was shaking hands with him, Liam immediately smiled. It seemed that there was a chance for him to cooperate with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce today. Sure enough, Liam Johnston was the cream of the crop and the future of the Johnston family. As long as they could cooperate, the position of general manager in the company would be his! However, with a flick of his eyes, he suddenly saw someone else in the office. The said person was sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee in a dignified manner. “Philip Clarke? What is a wastrel like you doing here?” Liam’s fa
Upon hearing this, Liam got agitated. He turned around, glared at Philip angrily, and yelled, “Philip Clarke, no one will treat you as a mute if you don't speak! Besides, this is my Johnston family’s business. It’s no place for you to intervene! Or are you seeking justice for your wife? Hehe, why don’t you take a good look at yourself and Wynn? Do you think Director Luther is an ignorant person like you? He’ll definitely agree to cooperate with my dad's company. At that time, I’ll personally kick you and Wynn, that little tramp, out of the Johnston family! I’ll make sure to take over Beacon!” After scolding Philip, Liam felt very relieved! He had finally vented his frustration. In the past few days, he had heard his dad praising Philip up to the skies! What did it matter if Philip had some money and followers? By the looks of him now, he was still nothing more than a loser! A leopard could never change its spots! He had money and people? Ridiculous! It must be because of
On the ground floor of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce, Liam caught up with Philip with a face full of anger. He grabbed his collar and warned viciously, “I don't care what method you’re using, but I’m telling you that the cooperation with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce will definitely belong to Martin Pharmaceutical! If you want to fight for that little b*tch Wynn Johnston, you don’t stand a chance! Moreover, the humiliation we suffered will be returned to you tenfold! I will prove to everyone that in the Johnston family, Wynn is not the only capable one; there’s also me, Liam Johnston! Wynn and I will forever be at odds with each other!” The corners of Philip’s eyes froze as he shoved Liam’s wrist away. The force of Philip’s grip instantly caused Liam to groan in pain. “Ah! Let go of me, let go! It hurts!” With cold eyes, Philip said, “Liam Johnston, I advise you not to provoke me! Also, her name is Wynn Johnston, not little b*tch! She’s your cousin! If you insult her ag
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
The Hexa Guild also claimed that they would kill anyone from the Celestial Palace. Although upset, no one dared to say anything in the face of the other party’s strength. It would be embarrassing if they could not live up to their claims if they retorted now. Moreover, the battle was a matter of life and death. Everyone was risking their lives. The Celestial Palace had the confidence to face the Hexa Guild now. They believed that they could turn the situation around with their strength or at least show them what they could do. There would be a battle between the two parties in the afternoon, which was the best time to show off their strength. The young lady of the Celestial Palace would be the one contending. After improving her strength, Vanna was full of confidence and vowed to give her opponent a fatal blow or at least let them know how powerful she was. Ronan was nervous. He was not worried about his wife but worried that the Hexa Guild would take things too far. Those
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
