District 4 of Arcadia Island, Newsea Hospital. Janet Ball, who was wearing a red trench coat, brought her four-year-old son, Tom, to the hospital at night. In the hospital corridor, Tom saw Mila playing alone and immediately broke away from Janet’s hold. “Tom, where are you going?” “I’m going to play with that little girl.” Janet glanced at Mila and pursed her lips in disdain. “Why play with her? Be careful of infectious diseases or something.” Mila heard Janet’s words and pouted angrily. “Do you have an infectious disease?” Tom stood in front of Mila and asked arrogantly with his head held high. “No, I don’t.” Mila turned around and ignored Tom. Tom stared at Mila’s back. He stretched out his hand and punched Mila’s back abruptly, causing her to lean against the wall of the corridor. The pain brought tears to Mila’s eyes. “Why did you hit me?” “You have an infectious disease. You’re evil. I’m fighting evil. I’ll kill you so that you won’t infect others.” To
“Let go of me. It’s not true that I wasn’t raised properly. He fell on his own. He even beat me before this. I didn’t touch him at all. You’re a bad person. All of you are bad people.” Mila cried with tears in her eyes, looking very pitiful. “This unruly child is even a liar. How dare you say that I’m a bad person? You’re really uneducated. I must rip your mouth out today so you know what proper upbringing is!” Janet reached out angrily was about to slap Mila’s face, but as soon as she raised her hand, her wrist was grabbed. “Who the hell dares to stop me?” Janet turned her head, looked at the man who grabbed her wrist, and roared. “Hurry up and let go! How dare a poor loser like you dare to interfere in my business?! If you don't let go, I'll destroy your family!” Philip did not say anything, his eyes cold and gloomy. Smack! He raised his hand and slapped Janet on her face, causing her to fall to the floor. Wynn rushed over from behind and hugged Mila. “Mila, I’m h
Janet put away the phone, pointed at Philip, and shouted, “My brother will be here soon. Just wait to kneel to me! Your whole family must kneel and apologize to me!” Wynn had already pacified Mila and also found out the reason for this incident. Hearing Janet hurling abuse at this moment, she felt angry. “You’ve been turning the facts around. It was your son who bullied my daughter. It's fine that you’re not letting your son admit his mistake, but you even wanted to hit my daughter. Do you even know what righteousness and integrity mean?” Wynn scolded. In her heart, Mila was most precious. Whose child was not a treasure in their mother’s heart? Janet glanced at Wynn with disdain and spat at her. “People who come to work in the city like you don't deserve to talk about righteousness and integrity! “I want your whole family to kneel and make amends to me and my son or this matter will never end. My brother is the head of the department in charge of this ward!” Wynn’s heart
Janet nodded and took two steps back with her son. Garett said coldly, “Do you still want to see a doctor here? If you still want to be examined and treated, your family will kneel and apologize to my sister. “As for financial losses, seeing that you’re not rich, I’ll leave it at that. But don’t you think you should express your sincerity by being servants at my sister’s house for three to five months?” Garett proposed an even more despicable condition. Based on Janet’s temper, she would probably go mad if they were to serve at her house for months. “Is there something wrong with your brain? Do you even think before you speak?” Philip said coldly. “Damn it! How dare you contradict me?! I think you don't want your daughter to be treated. I only need to say the word and no hospital or doctor in District 4 will accept your daughter. With your daughter’s disease, she can only wait to die!” Garett held his head high and spoke arrogantly. At this moment, Garett was filled with
“Yes, Young Master! Right away!” George Thomas happened to be returning from Clarke Manor at this time. He immediately contacted the dean of Newsea Hospital in District 4 of Arcadia Island. Taylor Goode, the dean of Newsea Hospital, was dumbfounded when he received George’s call! Soon, he dialed Philip’s number. “Hello, Young Master Clarke. I’m Taylor Goode. How may I help you?” Taylor bowed and said respectfully. “A director surnamed Ball in your hospital has some conflicts with me. You need to come over here.” Philip raised his eyebrows and glanced at Garett, whose nose was bleeding. “This Garett Ball! Young Master Clarke, wait a moment. I'll deal with him now!” Taylor roared immediately. “Okay, I’m hanging up now.” As Philip ended the call, Garett leaned against the wall and clutched his stomach. He was laughing until his sides hurt. “I’m about to die of laughter. A piece of sh*t like you is capable of calling Dean Goode? Your acting skills are really good.” “Y
Janet stood next to Garett and whispered, “Garett, why is this happening?” “How would I know? Maybe it's a coincidence. Let's watch and see what happens.” Garett turned around, walked to Taylor, and said pitifully, “Dean Goode, you came just in time. Look at my face. I was beaten by this thug. You have to stand up for me.” Taylor looked at Garett’s face and said bitterly, “You deserve it!” “What?” Garett stared blankly at Taylor, unable to figure out why Taylor would say something like that. “Dean Goode, what do you mean by that? I’ve done more than enough for you over the years. Now that I’ve been beaten up by this poor loser, you said that I deserve it?” “Don’t you? Just think about what you’ve done. Have you investigated the truth of the matter? If you hadn’t made them pissed, would they have beaten you up? You should reflect on what you’ve done!” Taylor rebuked aloud. Garett shrank back. If they traced this case to the root of the problem, it would lead back to Jane
“Garett Ball, is this how you apologize? According to the hospital's regulations, what you have done warrants a dismissal. If your apology doesn't satisfy Mr. Clarke, you may pack your things and get out.” Taylor dared not defend Garett. If Philip misunderstood, Taylor might lose his position as dean any minute. Garett was shocked. He did not expect Taylor to speak up for Philip like this. Thinking about his position, the generous drug commissions, and everything that those gorgeous medical representatives were willing to offer, Garett gritted his teeth. “I'm deeply aware of my mistakes. I shouldn’t have defended my relatives indiscriminately. I made a big mistake in the spur of the moment and damaged the reputation of Newsea Hospital in District 4. I’ll definitely change my ways. I hope you can forgive me and give me a chance to turn over a new leaf.” After Garett finished speaking, he looked at Janet with a pleading look in his eyes. If Janet continued to kick up a big fu
“Dad, you’re amazing. I love you the most.” Mila smiled sweetly and jumped into Philip’s arms. “Dad, kiss me and lift me high up.” Philip laughed and kissed Mila on the cheek before lifting her high in the air. “Haha, it’s so high!” Mila’s laughter was like tinkling bells. Wynn looked at Philip and Mila quietly. A happy smile bloomed on her face. Wynn was in a relaxed mood and felt that she had not been this relaxed and happy for a long time. Philip walked to Wynn with Mila in his arms. “Mila, look at how beautiful your mother is.” “Mom is beautiful. She’s the most beautiful person in the world. When I grow up, I want to be as beautiful as Mom.” Mila leaned on Wynn’s shoulder, wrapped her arms around Wynn’s neck, and looked at Wynn cheerfully. Wynn gently bopped Mila on the nose. “You sweet talker.” “Mom, I want something delicious. I want ice cream,” Mila said childishly. Wynn smiled and stretched out her arms to take Mila from Philip’s arms. “Let’s go. I’ll br
“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
