“I don’t know.” Wynn’s eyes reddened, and she hesitated. Philip squeezed Wynn’s small hand and said, “Wynnie, trust me. No matter what decision you make, I’ll support you. I’ll always be your greatest support.” Wynn’s tears started falling. Philip got up and left the bedroom. He walked to the door, turned back to Wynn, and said with a smile, “Have an early rest tonight.” Then, Philip returned to his bedroom. These days, he and Wynn slept separately. With certain things acting as a barrier between them, it was not that easy to resolve the issue between them. Many things needed time to fade away. In the middle of the night, both of them lay on their beds. Neither could fall asleep as both were lost in their thoughts. The two rooms were separated by a wall. Philip could use his control of rules and matter to easily detect Wynn’s situation in the master bedroom next door. Her breathing was even as she tossed and turned. She did not seem to be asleep. Wynn lay sidewa
Instantly, the meeting room fell silent. Willy sat on the chair calmly as he stared at Wynn with a flash of chill in his eyes. “Madam Johnston, you don’t have much time left. I hope you'll consider the conditions I proposed last night.” Willy added, and the sneer in his eyes intensified. Wynn’s face was slightly cold at the moment. She glanced at Willy, squeezed out a smile, and said, “Mr. Fadden, a 70-30 profit distribution is absolutely impossible for us. At the most, it’ll be 60-40. 60 to us, and 40 to you.” After saying this, a determined look flashed across Wynn’s face. Willy raised his eyebrows and said with a chuckle, “Oh, have you found another business partner to work with? Why such a firm attitude today?” Wynn smiled and said, “Mr. Fadden, Beacon Group is open to discussing cooperation with like-minded people. If you want to take advantage of the situation or make some unspoken demands, excuse us for not agreeing to it! So, please think about it. If it doesn’t w
A tall and handsome figure stood at the door, his eyes glowing with a cold light as he stared at Willy Fadden in front of him. “How dare you threaten my wife? Do you want to die?” A cold and stern voice came from the figure! Willy was taken aback. He raised his head, stared at the man standing in front of him, and asked with a frown, “Who are you? Go away!” As he tried to push Philip away, Philip raised his hand and slapped him! Smack! This slap resounded throughout the meeting room! It also caused Willy to spin on the spot like a top! He covered his rapidly swelling left cheek and staggered in a daze. He stared at Philip viciously and roared, “Damn it! Where did this punk come from? How dare you hit me? Do you want to die? “Take him down!” Willy yelled, and the four bodyguards behind him rushed out immediately, kicking and punching out at Philip! As a result. Biff, bang, thud! In less than a minute, the four bodyguards were sent flying by Philip. They rolled
As soon as Philip said that, the board members and shareholders of Beacon Group present in the meeting room were shocked! What was going on? All the companies and industries under Willy Fadden, including all the shares of Beacon Group, had been transferred to Wynn’s name? How was this possible? Was Philip Clarke bragging? “Shut up! Philip, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you’re Madam Johnston’s husband!” “That's right! Who do you think you are? This is Beacon Group’s board meeting. How dare you barge in like this and beat Mr. Fadden up so viciously? You’re simply smearing our group’s image!” “Madam Johnston, your husband will be in big trouble for doing this!” The board members and shareholders scolded Philip and threatened Wynn. Wynn furrowed her shapely eyebrows at this moment. She looked at Philip with his foot on Willy’s back and said, “Did you really do all that?” Philip nodded and replied, “To avoid trouble in the future, I decided t
Bang! Before Willy Fadden finished his words, Philip went over and stomped on his chest viciously! Crack! At that moment, Willy felt as if several of his ribs seemed to be broken. His breathing became rapid, and it hurt him to even breathe. “You said just now that you have the backing of the 12 Sacred Halls of the West. Which one is it? The Hall of the Underworld or the Hall of Evil?” Philip lowered his eyebrows, his eyes flashing with unusual coldness. Hearing that, Willy gulped nervously, looked at the evil young man in front of him incredulously, and asked, “H-How do you know about the Hall of the Underworld and the Hall of Evil?” Hehe. Philip chuckled mildly and said, “Is that very strange?” Gulp! Willy gulped as his forehead broke out in a cold sweat from the fright and pain. He struggled and roared, “Since you know about the 12 Sacred Halls of the West, you should understand their horror! If you do this to me now, the boss behind me will not let you go! Even
“Yana Young? I’m sorry, I don’t think I know you.” Wynn smiled and was about to hang up. However, the voice on the other end said unhurriedly, “Madam Johnston, I’m Philip’s friend. I’ve reserved a private room in Avis Club. There are some things I want to talk to you about the Lovelace family.” Things about the Lovelace family? Wynn was startled for a moment as she watched Philip, who had already gotten into the car and left. She frowned and said, “What do you want?” “Madam Johnston, why don't we meet and talk?” On the other end of the phone, Yana’s voice carried a hint of sexiness, which seemed to have a magic power that made Wynn unable to refuse. “Okay.” Wynn ended the call and crossed her arms. A hint of suspicion flashed in the corner of her eyes before she turned around and left Beacon Group. Soon, Wynn drove to Avis Club. After announcing her name, Wynn was led into a private room by a dedicated person. Avis Club had a low-key but luxurious layout. The fa
Not long after Wynn left, the partition behind the private room was pushed open from the inside. A handsome young man with an unruly look walked out from the inside. He walked out and sat in front of Yana naturally. After pouring himself a cup of tea, he took a sip. Yana looked at the handsome man in front of her and said with a smile, “Young Master Lovelace, I’ve already done what you asked for. Can I also get what you promised me?” Shane Lovelace raised his eyebrows, took out a small test tube with blue liquid from his pocket, and asked, “Do women really care about their appearance so much?” Yana took the small test tube containing the blue liquid with eyes full of joy as she said, “You still don’t understand women, especially one at my age. For women like us, looks are more precious than life.” Shane nodded, took a few sips of tea, and asked, “What’s going on with Philip Clarke recently?” Yana put away the test tube containing the blue liquid and said, “Someone from th
Hearing that, Martin immediately agreed. Then, after hanging up the phone, he looked at the excited Bernard, Liam, and the others. He said, “Boss Young has agreed, but we have to wait two days. During this time, all of you must watch yourselves and avoid alerting the enemy. Don’t mess up our plans!” Bernard nodded. Liam was even more overjoyed and said, “Don't worry, Dad. I'll just keep an eye on Wynn's every move in these two days and do nothing.” Philip had returned to First Palace at this moment. In the living room, he looked at the jade pendant that he got from Yana’s auction. He had been exploring its internal structure. Philip found that the internal structure of this jade pendant was really amazing! It did not seem like an ordinary white jade. The texture contained spatial rules, man-made rules, and arrays engraved on it. Could it be that the predecessors from thousands of years ago had seen the door or even entered it and learned some tricks? Like those alch
“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows
The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of
Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma
Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
The street was very crowded with not only various pet monsters for sale but also a myriad of pills and techniques, which looked impressive. Philip was happy to see this. This place was clearly better than any other place he had visited before. It was very different from the other places he knew. “This is the place I’ve always wanted to visit.” Philip could not contain his excitement and wanted to bring all his friends and family over. “After finding your crush, I’ll bring all my people over and show them this place.” Rabbit was surprised to hear Philip’s high evaluation of this place. He simply felt that something was unusual about this place, but it was nothing too special. “Don’t miss this great bargain. Our pets are the best. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here? I can tell you some things and satisfy your curiosity. I’m sure my goods are nothing you've seen before.” Seeing that Philip and the others did not own a pet monster, the seller kept promoting his g
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
