At the same time, Derrick’s phone rang. He looked at the number and ran to one side politely before answering it. “M-Miss Sommerset, how can I help you?”“Did Wynn Johnston manage to secure the contract with Turner’s branch?” A cold voice asked.“Yes, Miss Sommerset. Director Stanley from Turner came here personally and signed it just now.” The back of Derrick’s head was drenched in sweat; his legs were trembling from fear.Chloe Sommerset was very difficult to deal with.As of now, Derrick was the only one who knew that Chloe was the new boss of the company.He could guess that everything Chloe did was related to Wynn.It could even be related to Philip.“Got it.”Slam!She hung up the phone.Derrick started to panic. He did not know what she was thinking.He calmed himself down before returning to the office. At that time, everyone was still discussing what to eat in Arc de Triumph that night.Then, Wynn received a phone call. It was from Eric.“Hello, Wynn. Where are yo
Eric had not expected Wynn’s sudden slap.The man with braids was stunned. After coming back to his senses, he yelled, “F*ck! You b*tch! How dare you hit me! Do you want to die?”Braids was furious! He had never been slapped by a woman in public before.Slap!He lifted his hand and returned Wynn a slap.The slap landed on Wynn’s face. Consequently, her right cheek instantly became swollen and started to turn red.“B*tch! How dare you slap my f*cking face!”Braids was fuming. He glared at Wynn angrily and then grabbed her arm.“Let go of me! If not, I’ll call the cops!”Wynn struggled and screamed. However, it was to no avail.The seven to eight people around her were all Eric’s friends. However, at the moment, they were just spectators. They only watched on coldly as the scene unfolded.They were well aware that Eric wanted to teach that woman a lesson.“Scream more! Struggle more! You little b*tch, slap me again, I dare you! If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I’ll just s
Eric had gotten the pill overseas. No woman could stay conscious under its effects.Inside the car, four men stared at Wynn who had just started to feel the effects of the pill. She looked very alluring as she bit her lip and pressed down on her skirt.The car sped to a hotel.The few of them got out of the car and carried Wynn into a room.At the same time, Philip had been trying to call Wynn frantically. However, no one ever answered her phone. In the end, her phone was switched off.Oh no, something terrible must have happened!That was Philip’s first instinct.Hence, he called Mindy immediately. “Mindy, where did Wynn do? Why isn’t she picking up her phone?”Mindy was in the office discussing what to eat with her colleagues. She replied, “VP Johnston left 20 minutes ago. I think she went to the plaza. Oh right, she went to pick up her cousin, Eric.”Eric?Philip was beginning to feel more and more anxious. He hung up the phone and called Theo. “Tell me where Eric Yates is
Philip was triggered by what he saw. His eyes went red and he was livid!Wynn’s hands were being tied to the frame of the bed, and she was moaning in discomfort. Additionally, there was a faint handprint on her cheek, and there was blood on the corner of her lips.Philip was fuming. He ran over and kicked Braids in the stomach with all his might.Bam!Braids flew backward after being kicked by Philip, and the former crashed into the nightstand. It has to be said that Braids’ head was the one that hit the nightstand. Consequently, his head started bleeding, and he howled in pain.The other three men were shocked upon seeing Philip’s arrival. However, they quickly came back to their senses and took out bats and knives from under the bed.They had planned for him to come!It was a trap. A trap for Philip to fall into!Wynn was tied to the bed; she had bit her lip until it had started bleeding. Her eyes were filled with tears as she tried her best to stay conscious. Wynn watched as
Eric was enjoying himself at the bar.He was extremely pleased with himself at the moment as he finally managed to get back at that little b*tch, Wynn Johnston.Not to mention, Philip had to be very beaten up by now.Eric took out his phone and called Braids. However, no one picked up.He smirked shamelessly and muttered, “I guess it’s going well. I wasn’t expecting Wynn to be such a little wh*re. It’s been so long and she still isn’t done yet.”As Eric thought about it, he proceeded to flirt with the pretty lady next to him.However, at this moment.Bam!The door of the private room was kicked open violently.Four muscular men in suits barged in.Tiger glared coldly at Eric who was sitting on the sofa and currently being overwhelmed with lust. Tiger boomed, “Eric!”Eric turned his head and saw that someone had barged in. He was fuming as he got up, pointed at Tiger, and shouted, “Who the f*ck are you? F*ck off!”In his family, Eric was the king. Thus, he was used to being
The Maybach headed directly to the stadium. At the moment, the outside of the stadium was crawling with henchmen in black suits and dark sunglasses. They were each standing solemnly with their hands behind their backs. When the car pulled over at the entrance, one of the henchmen immediately stepped forward, opened the door of the car, and greeted respectfully, “Mr. Clarke.” About twenty to thirty henchmen in the area followed that person’s cue as they each bowed down and shouted respectfully, “Mr. Clarke!” The volume of their voices was staggering! Philip got out of the car, his cold demeanor and anger seemed to be suppressed in his eyes. With quick steps, he made his way toward the arena. Theo followed closely from behind, ready to deal with the aftermath. As soon as Philip entered the stadium, he heard Eric shouting hysterically. “Let go of me! My name is Eric Yates. I belong to the Yates’ family! If you don’t release me at once, my grandfather won’t let you off! “
Eric had never imagined that a piece of trash like Philip would lash out at him like that! He was simply unscrupulous! Also, why was Theo standing next to him so respectfully? All the events that had happened almost caused Eric to suffer a mental breakdown. Why? Was he not a good-for-nothing! Philip thought for a moment before replying calmly, “I’m someone you can’t afford to offend. Remember this, the Yates family is nothing more than an ant in my eyes. Don’t try to challenge me, otherwise, I won’t think twice about removing the Yates from the face of this earth.” Philip had the urge to remove the Yates that day, but he recalled the words Wynn had said to him. Do not cause trouble. Therefore, Philip held back and only taught Eric a lesson. If Eric remained unrepentant after this, then, there would be no longer any reason for the Yates family to exist. Eric lied on the ground as he sneered and said, “Philip Clarke, it seems that I’ve underestimated you. You’ve bee
With her arms crossed, Wynn raised her chin, looked straight at Philip, and dialed Eric’s number. The fact was, even if Philip really had taught Eric a lesson, Wynn would not say anything. That was because Eric really had gone too far this time. If the Yates pursued the matter, Wynn would definitely take Philip’s side. Beep, beep, beep… A long wait ensued. In the end, the call went unanswered. After a while, Wynn gave up trying and said to Philip dubiously, “Okay, I’ll believe you for once.” Philip grinned, touched her cheek that was still slightly red and swollen, and asked, “Is it still painful?” Wynn shook her head shyly and said, “It has been treated. I’m fine.” The two stared into each other’s eyes. “Damn it, I almost forgot!” Philip slapped his forehead out of the blue and hurried out. “Wynn, I’ll pick you up later.” Wynn was puzzled, totally unaware of what Philip was up to. Oh, right. Philip had asked her the day before if she was free today. That wa
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“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
