At that very moment, Philip’s phone rang. It was a call from George. His respectful voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Young Master, Winston has made a move against the Clarke family in Riversouth and already monopolized half of their partners. Should we continue with the next plan?” “Go ahead,” Philip said coldly. George quickly responded and said, “Young Master, do listen to my advice. For the time being, don’t target the Dunley family. Wait for the people I’ve arranged to arrive in Hampton before you—” However, before George could finish his words, Philip interrupted him and said, “I don’t have much time. Hurry up.” “Yes.” George was helpless. He ended the call and said to the subordinates around him, “Let’s begin.” Not long after Philip ended the call, he received a call from Winston. As soon as the call was connected, Winston's hearty laughter sounded from the other end. He said, “Young man, I’ve received your generous gift. I like it very much. For this,
“What? A loss of ten billion dollars?!” Winston yelled as he felt the world spinning around him. He slumped back on the sofa. The several assistants were trembling all over! The female assistant in the office hurriedly took out quick-acting heart-reliever pills for Winston. After catching his breath with much difficulty, Winston’s face grew tense. While exuding a biting chill, he roared, “Cut them off! Cut off all the merged partners! We can’t let the loss grow bigger!” After saying this, Winston held his forehead, his face looking exceedingly pale. At the same time, he also remembered the phone that was on the coffee table. He quickly picked it up and said angrily into the phone, “Philip, did you plan all of this?” On the other end of the phone, Philip’s faint mocking laugh could be heard. He said, “Winston, as I just said, be careful of getting indigestion. This loss of ten billion dollars should be enough of a lesson to you, right?” After hearing these words, Winston
“Mr. Dunley, things are not looking good. The information we found out about Philip seems to be wrong. This Clarke family of Riversouth is not as simple as we thought. No matter what we do to them, they can retaliate accurately and also block our trade and business.” An assistant panicked at this moment and quickly reported to Winston. Winston became solemn when he heard that. He rushed into the work area and glanced at their computer screens and the analysis report. Ten billion dollars had been used to tackle the Clarke family. However, not only were they unable to recover the ten billion dollars but the money was firmly trapped in the market by the other party! “What the hell is going on? Aren't you guys known as the best market regulators? Why is this happening?” Winston was angry and asked the question with a roar. One of the managers quickly stepped forward and explained, “Mr. Dunley, the situation has changed. We have to re-investigate everything about the Clarke fami
Hearing Philip’s name, Winston nearly blew his top. He turned around and shouted, “How dare he come here? He’s a brat who doesn’t know his limits! I want to see how amazing he is to dare challenge the Dunley family!” After saying that, Winston quickly led a dozen people to the conference hall on the first floor of the building! At this moment, Philip was sitting leisurely on the sofa, sipping the coffee brewed by the receptionist. Maia Harp, the woman with a glamorous figure, stood respectfully beside him. This woman was the focus wherever she went. Her straight and slender legs, coupled with her curvy waist and hips, made many male employees drool. Winston brought a large group of people with him and soon came to the front. His gaze was instantly locked on Philip who was sitting on the sofa while sipping coffee. Then, his eyes shifted to Maia who was next to him. Maia Harp? Why was this woman here too? Winston knew Maia. She was a strong career woman in Hampton, Cha
The Dunley family was the most elite family in Charbury! They were even ranked at the top in the country! Even the strength of some hidden affluent families might not be able to compare to the Dunley family! To be exact, the Dunley family was ranked among the eight major families in the country! Moreover, the strength of the Dunley family was already on a par with the Wallis family of Golden City. A year ago, the Wallis family of Golden City was recognized as the number one family in the country. Of course, these so-called rankings did not include the Clarke family of Arcadia Island. After all, the Clarke family of Arcadia Island was an existence not generally known by ordinary people. Naturally, the power of the Clarke family was also not known to others. The public knew about the Wallis and Denver families of Golden City, the Dunley family of Charbury, the Harrison family of Glenford, the Joo, Williams, and Jackman families of the capital city, and the Larson family o
Hehe. Winston snorted and said, “Apologize to my man and pay 20 billion dollars in medical compensation. If you do that, we’ll move on from this matter. Otherwise, don’t dream of walking out of Dunley Group today!” After saying that, Winston’s face was full of sneers. Hearing this, the assistant behind Winston was immediately moved to tears and exclaimed, “Mr. Dunley…” It turned out that Mr. Dunley valued him that much. Winston looked back at the assistant and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter for you.” Then, he looked at Philip and asked, “Isn’t this a reasonable request?” Philip chuckled and said, “Winston, you really know how to do business. You’re demanding 20 billion dollars for one slap. Do you really think that I’m a pushover and you have the upper hand against me?” This old man came up with a good plan. Winston laughed and said, “From the moment you stepped into Dunley Group, your outcome was already decided. Young man, you’re too arrogant and can’t
However, how could that be? Was he not a member of the Clarke family in Riversouth? For a moment, Winston was flustered! If Philip was really the young master of an affluent family, Winston was essentially digging his own grave! Of course, it would also explain why every move he made against Philip had ended in failure. Was there a mistake in the information they found? However, now that he was caught between a rock and a hard place, Winston could not give up so easily. He could only fight to the end! Thus, Winston snorted and said to Philip coldly, “It’s interesting that you could get Maia Harp to assist you. Even so, I still stand by my word. The Dunley family of Charbury is not an existence you can easily mess with. Now, immediately pay up 20 billion dollars and apologize on your knees. I’ll let you go after you do that!” Philip shrugged helplessly and shook his head as he said, “It seems that there’s nothing else to discuss between us. In that case, be prepared fo
At Winston’s command, a dozen bodyguards in black suits immediately surrounded Philip and Maia. They held anti-riot batons in their hands! Winston stood outside the encirclement with a sneer on his face. He could already imagine the next scene of Philip begging for mercy. Anyone who dared to make a move against the Dunley family was simply looking for death! Maia was also full of chills. She immediately shielded Philip behind her, assumed a fighting stance, and said, “Young Master, let me take it from here. You find the opportunity to run. Don’t turn back!” Philip was startled and looked at Maia’s graceful back. At this moment, she had assumed a fighting stance and it displayed her attractive figure—especially her curves that would make any man take a second look. “It’s okay, I can handle this myself. It’s just a dozen bodyguards. I haven’t done this for a long time anyway.” Philip suddenly reached out and gently patted Maia on the shoulder before pulling her behind him. He
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
