On the screen, the black 86 had its tires in the gutter by the side. The car slanted, the tires rapidly spinning against the road. The friction resulted in plumes of white smoke, and the tires began to shriek as well!It took him slightly over two seconds!The car did not slow down at all!It simply lurched forth and left Finn’s Ferrari far behind!The whole action was quick and elegant!The cheers were abruptly silenced!Everyone was stunned speechless!Even the racecar girls who did not understand such things were clapping their hands to their mouths and gasping out loud!What was that just now?They had not even seen it clearly!Was that still racing?Finn was completely floored. He had been overtaken!In fact, he could not even tell how Philip did it!F*ck!In his fury, Finn slammed the accelerator, trying his best to catch up!However, after Finn personally witnessed how Philip traversed the next four hairpins, there was nothing but shock left in his heart!He had
Philip turned and spared Chase Fisher a glance before he replied, “If you’d excuse me, I’m running against time. My wife’s waiting for me at the hospital.” Pfft! Everyone else fainted again! This dude was unnecessarily pretentious! How could he just brush Chase Fisher off like he was nothing? Did he not know who Chase Fisher was? He was the vice president of the National Association Of Car Racing! He was one of the country’s best racers too! Yet to Philip Clarke, racing was just a game to play. ‘If you like it, you can have it.’Everyone might throttle him should they know of Philip’s current thoughts. Being a racer was the dream career of many young males! Instead of being irked by Philip’s attitude, Chase smiled even friendlier at him. “Should you have any free time in the future, Mr. Clarke, you’re always welcome to drop by. This is my name card.” Not rejecting him this time, Philip took the card from Chase and stuffed it into the pocket of his pants. Then,
Yolanda and her friends watched as Philip walked toward the red Ferrari, the condescending distaste for him thickening in their gazes. Even after having scolded him angrily, Yolanda stomped forward and gripped onto Philip whose hand was rummaging for the car key. She reprimanded again, “Isn’t this enough? Stop pretending already! What, do you need the few of us to shriek and fawn over you for you to stop?”‘Seriously this man… He’s going all out just to look cool. ‘How could such a nice car even belong to a worthless wretch like him? ‘At least take a look at yourself first!’ Philip frowned at the motion. “What now? This is my car.” With a mere sentence, he managed to offend all four girls at the same time. Jane’s laughter could be seen in the curve of her eyebrows even though her hand was held over her mouth. She mocked him sarcastically. “Look at him, still pretending to be all high and mighty. I can never understand why some people find the need to pretend to be some big
Of course, she showed up. Today was her sister’s engagement party after all. She had arrived after buttering herself up to the nines. What for, you ask? To meet more boys, what else? “How’s your boyfriend, Sis? I’ve only met him a handful of times. What does his family do?” Isabelle spoke, turning to look at Ruby who was evidently more interested in the contents of her phone than their conversation. Ruby smiled. “Nothing special. He treats me well though, so I thought it’s best that we get engaged first. That way, at least Mom and Dad will stop nagging, you know?” A quick flash of disappointment shone in Isabelle’s eyes. She had assumed that her future brother-in-law would be the scion of the rich. Who would have thought he was from a normal family? ‘Has my arrogant sister changed her taste in men? ‘So, she prefers the honest kind now?’Ruby’s WeChat with Mr. Wade was filled with flirtatious messages of all sorts. They had already picked a time to meet as well. She wou
“Philip Clarke!” Everyone froze the moment they saw Philip enter the private room. “Holy f*ck! That’s Philip Clarke?” There was a strange glint in everyone’s eyes as they scrutinized him all over. Who would have thought they would meet him today? Philip was confused as well. Something was off about the atmosphere ever since he stepped foot into the room, especially as he glossed over the strange look in everybody’s eyes. They were filled with unadulterated insult and contempt. “Isn’t your boyfriend’s friend a little too shoddy, Ruby? What he wears is even more miserable than your future husband.” Isabelle began to taunt. Anger rose the moment she laid her eyes on Philip’s poker face. Not only had she lost her dignity at the BMW motorcycle showroom last time, but it even cost her her job as well. This was an act of revenge she had to take!She would make him pay, and if squishing him like a bug under her foot was what needed to be done, she would. Even if it was
In the elevator, Ruby had also recognized both Howard and Philip.Without an ounce of regret, her first response was to frown disgustedly and glare at the duo.Then, right before Howard’s eyes, she pecked the middle-aged man on his cheek and neck.She even went as far as to humor the man by clinging on to him. Time froze. The elevator doors closed. Philip sighed hopelessly and walked forward to pat the shocked Howard on his shoulder. “I’ve been trying to tell you. Ruby…” Howard interrupted before Philip could finish talking. With a forced smile and tears that threatened to spill from his eyes, he said, “Come on, let’s go. It’s time to eat. Ruby just went to buy something. She’ll be back in a while.” Philip was stunned. ‘Howard really doesn’t plan to admit it, does he?’ Having said that, Howard turned to leave. Philip’s expression hardened as he watched Howard’s retreating figure. He roared, “Dude! How the f*ck long more are you going to lie to yourself? That over ther
The entire restaurant fell into silence at Philip’s question. Everyone was confused.‘Such a bold claim. ‘Hundreds of millions worth of assets? ‘Doesn’t he only have 300,000 bucks? That was merely a small diamond ring too. ‘But he’s suddenly rich now that his girlfriend is breaking up with him?’Ruby smirked tauntingly as she turned to Philip. “Come again? He’s nothing but a piece of trash, just like you. Hundreds of millions worth of assets? Who are you kidding?” ‘Even at this point, he opts to butt in instead of pulling Howard away? ‘Hundreds of millions worth of assets? ‘What a joke.’Ruby had been with Howard for four years. If anyone, she would know best about his financial condition, no? The fat greasy man by Ruby’s side also began to make relentless fun of the duo before him. “Who’s this f*cker? Do you know him, Ruby dear?”The man had never seen someone as shameless as Philip. The man was not alone in his opinion. In fact, everyone else spectating, mostly
Everyone fetched for their phones immediately even though most of them were aware that the phone ringing was not their own. Staring at Deaton, Philip motioned with a jerk of his chin. “It’s yours.” Stunned, Deaton reached for his pockets to realize it was indeed his phone. Most importantly, it was from his company’s secretary. Had he not already established that they were not to disturb him today? Deaton frowned. Having no idea what the meaning behind the call was, he picked it up with a smile. “Right in time. A call from my company’s secretary. I’ll get to ask if my assets have been…” Before he could finish speaking, his ear was met with the anxious voice of his sexy female secretary. “Mr. Wade, something has happened! Our company’s been bought and transferred to someone else’s name.” Stunned, cold sweat began to form on Deaton’s forehead. “What?” He was shocked. The unease in his chest caused his entire body to shiver in fear as he stared at Philip. “Mr. Wade, all y
“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
