Giada frowned at the unexpected appearance of Tim Clarke. “Uncle Tim.” Philip looked at Tim with a smile. The latter also gave him a doting look, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, “Are you alright?” Philip shrugged and said, “I’m fine.” Tim nodded, turned to Wynn, and said smilingly, “Niece-in-law, we meet again.” Wynn tucked the hair that hung around her ears, politely nodded at Tim, and said, “Uncle Tim.” “Haha, hello!” Tim was very happy. This greeting was better than anything else. Wynn was really frightened just now. She did not expect Philip’s uncle to appear so suddenly. Moreover, looking at this scene, Uncle Tim’s identity did not seem to be so simple. He had armed men with him! It was horrifying! Wynn raised her chin and looked at Philip with doubts in her heart. Who on earth was her husband? Why was he always so mysterious? When Tim turned his head, the smile on his face immediately fell grim. He stared at Giada and said coldly, “Giada, what wer
Wynn stepped on the lawn with her hands behind her back. She looked very fresh and attractive. When the sun shone on her through the mottled leaves, she looked as if she was covered with a layer of gold. It was a stunning sight to see. “Wynnie.” Philip walked over with his hands in his trouser pockets. Wynn turned around smilingly and asked, “Are you done?” Philip nodded and reached out to remove a small leaf from Wynn's hair. The latter asked hesitantly, “By the way, Phil, what does Uncle Tim do? His appearance is so…” Wynn pointed to the rows of armed men over there, her big eyes filled with suspicions. Philip considered before saying, “Those belong to my family.” Wynn’s eyes widened at those words. She stared at Philip incredulously, then pointed at the armed men over there before asking again, “You, what did you say? Those belong to your family?” How could that be? What did that mean? Those men were all armed with ammunition! They belonged to her husband’s
Philip was full of anger and his face turned grim. It seemed that Martha had already forgotten the lesson from before as she dared to treat Mila this way again. Martha was also flustered at the time, especially when she saw Philip rushing in from the door. The latter’s face was full of chills, which reminded her of her beating in the living room that night. Damn it, why was the timing so coincidental! “That, Philip, hear me out…” Martha tried to explain. However... Philip rushed over, waved his big hand, and slapped Martha angrily! Smack! This slap could be said to have exploded directly in the living room. The old ladies all jumped from the sofa and hid aside in fear. They were dumbfounded. Was Philip not a wastrel? How dare he hit his mother-in-law? “What are you doing? How dare you hit Martha? You’re too disrespectful!” One middle-aged woman wanting to please Martha stood up at this time and pointed at Philip arrogantly. However, Philip just cast her a cold
Instantly, these middle-aged women all picked up their bags and fled the living room in a swarm. “Martha, we’ll come back another time.” Before they left, they did not forget to say a polite remark to Martha. Very soon, the living room was left with Martha, who was flushed red, Philip, his wife, as well as Anne who carried Mila upstairs. Wynn held her forehead and looked at Martha. She was absolutely disappointed with her mother. “Mom, I’ve had enough of you. You’re a retired university lecturer after all. How have you become so unreasonable now?” Wynn asked helplessly. Martha was still irritated as she said, “Are you already so grown up that you can speak to me this way?” Martha was very angry that her daughter was so protective of Philip. She just did not like Philip. Even if he had some money now, Martha just could not like him. He was like her enemy from the previous life. “Mom, can you stop being so unreasonable? You know Philip is the one who bought this vil
Just as Wynn was about to drink it, the bedroom door was pushed open. Mila ran in crying, her small mouth pouting. She looked very sad. “Mommy,” Mila called out childishly and pounced into Wynn’s arms. Wynn had to put down the cup. She carried Mila and put her on her lap, laughing as she teased her and asked, “What’s happened to Mila? Why aren’t you happy?” Mila sat on her mother’s lap, inhaled her comforting scent, and said, “I want to play outside.” Wynn thought for a moment and said, “Okay, wait for me. I’ll bring you out to play, okay?” “Okay!” Mila nodded heavily, smacked a loud kiss on Wynn’s cheek, and got down from her lap. She pestered Wynn and pulled her into her small bedroom to show her the mermaid princess doll. Wynn could not help but oblige. It was her day off anyway, so she started playing with Mila. Anne started her cleaning duties. She walked into the master bedroom, saw the two cups of herbal tea on the table, took them downstairs, and poured the cont
Philip was supposed to meet Cynthia in a western restaurant. Cynthia, who was here early, was dressed very simply, but her appearance was not inferior to other women because of her good image and poise. Even in just a simple white dress, she was like a lotus flower in the water, attracting the eyes of most men in the restaurant. Cynthia noticed Philip walking in from the door and waved happily with a smile on her face. Philip also waved briefly and walked through the crowd toward Cynthia. He pulled out the chair and sat down. Cynthia grinned and handed him the menu. “This restaurant is newly opened. There are a lot of delicious dishes. You can look through the menu and see if anything interests you.” Philip obliged. He picked up the menu and thought for a long time before he ordered a few dishes casually. “That’s it. I don’t really know what to eat.” After that, Philip finally asked, “Cynthia, why are you looking for me? Is something wrong?” Larson family of Fernvale, his m
Philip shrugged but said nothing. Cynthia continued, “Perhaps everyone in the world thinks that Clarke Group is very rich and holds a capital flow of more than 100 billion, but in Capital City, there are many families better than them.” Philip smiled and said, “Cynthia, why are you saying this to me? I’m just an ordinary guy, not the young master you’re talking about.” This woman was very smart. She had guessed it. Cynthia did not say anything else. Right at this moment... “Cynthia Larson, you’re here too?” Suddenly, a noble and handsome man in the restaurant appeared in front of Cynthia and Philip. He looked at her with a grin. This handsome man wore a suit and looked quite decent. Philip was drinking coffee when he was suddenly disturbed. Naturally, he was a little unhappy. He glanced around casually and found that the other person was looking at Cynthia with desire in his eyes. Philip frowned and glanced at Cynthia. He found that she had already stood up and was
Chad frowned. Impatience was written all over his face. He sneered. “Brother, who the hell are you? I’m talking to Cynthia. Who are you to interrupt us?” “Excuse me, she’s my girlfriend. Is there something wrong with your eyes? Can’t you see she has rejected you? Why are you still here? Are you just looking for a fight?” Philip raised his face slightly. He could not help being amused at Chad’s frozen smile. He seemed to have used this excuse before. The words just came out automatically. Chad frowned and watched as Cynthia leaned against Philip. His hand was still tightly grabbed by Philip. A bout of fury suddenly welled up inside him! He almost exploded in anger, but this was a Western restaurant and he was the general manager of Worsett International Hotel. He naturally had to maintain his composure and display a gentlemanly demeanor. Chad smiled and touched his nose. His expression was changing rapidly. He stood up, glared at Philip, and said, “You’re her boyfriend? Ho
“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
