Juan sneered and continued with a frown, “Philip Clarke isn’t as simple as the young master of Clarke Group in Capital City! Although his family is now bankrupt, he isn’t! “Take a closer look! He has invested ten million in Gopher Delivery Services! “And this. He even has shares and invested in Apex Group, the company of the richest man in our city, George Thomas. “Wynnie, I found this out. Philip lied to you. He always had money, but he just refuses to spend it on you and Mila. He’s up to no good!” Juan kept telling her about the information he found, and Wynn frowned as she looked through the information. Philip had lied to her indeed. Not only had he bought Gopher Delivery Services, but he also invested in Apex Group. This happened many months ago. In other words, Philip had been deceiving her since then. Wynn was rattled and did not know what to say. She threw the materials down and forced out a smile. “Juan, I know all of this. Philip told me before. It’s nothing.”
“You already mentioned this just now.” Philip’s expression gradually cooled down as he said, “If you continue telling me unnecessary things, I don’t mind making you end up like your companion!”Vulture was not a death warrior. Killer organizations were unlike gangster societies that put loyalty above everything else. In their eyes, only money and missions prevailed! Their loyalty toward the organization was the lowest because they lived on the tip of a knife every day. Therefore, staying alive was the most important to them. “Are there only the two of you in this mission? Is there a third person?” Philip asked. “There are only two of us. We were confident that our plan was foolproof,” Vulture said earnestly. “Do you know who’s behind the scenes? Who’s your employer?” “The Beauty Killers hired us. We were also quite bewildered at first. The Beauty Killers are also a killer organization, but they hired us.” The Beauty Killers? Margot Pearson?! Two balls of flames burned
Philip came to Wynn’s office. After experiencing the incident in the morning, Wynn was not affected at all. She still displayed the persona of a Snow Queen, but from Philip’s perspective, he was keenly aware of a difference in her. Wynn’s eyes looked a bit confused and absent, and she was also unable to concentrate whether she was looking at documents or reports. Sometimes, her eyes would even linger on a page without moving. This was unlike Wynn. Obviously, she was restless. Philip sat across from her and noticed her expression clearly. He said, “Are you still thinking about what happened this morning?” Wynn shook her head in firm denial. “Stop pretending. I can tell.” Philip suddenly felt that she was a little cute. She was obviously very upset but still pretended to be calm. Why was she being so hard on herself? Wynn was not Philip, so she would naturally take some time to digest everything. “You won’t be used to it at first. That’s human nature. But you’ll get u
Wynn said with a frown, “There are hundreds of employees in Beacon Group. If we start an investigation now, it’s going to take a long time. It’s not going to be something that can be done in half a day.” “You don’t have to worry about this. With me around, everything will be resolved. You can just continue working as usual,” Philip said. “And then?” “And then, I’ll just…” As he said that, Philip got up and walked to Wynn’s side. Leaning his whole body over to her, his cheeks almost pressed against Wynn’s ear! “You… What are you doing?” Wynn had no idea what Philip was doing and thought he was going to… They were in the company, but her husband was being so bold. How embarrassing! “This is a secret operation. Of course, I have to get closer. What if the wall has ears? It’ll be exposed then,” Philip said earnestly. “This…” Wynn blushed furiously. She had misunderstood Philip and became more bashful because of that. Philip’s mouth went very close to Wynn’s ears. Th
Fabio and the others did check the place carefully just now and confirmed that there was no one in the research room. However, the figure that suddenly appeared was puzzling. It turned out that when Fabio and the others were carefully inspecting the various rooms in the research lab, the figure came in quietly through the door and jumped up into the air like a gecko, spreading his limbs and firmly attaching to the ceiling. No one noticed him there at all! After Fabio and others left, they returned to the duty room to rest. Naturally, it was unlikely for them to check the place again, and there were also people in the monitoring room. If anything happened in the research room, it would show up on the monitors, so they were relatively at ease. However, in the monitoring room at this moment, the people staring at the screens did not realize that the monitors had been tampered with. What they were seeing was just a static screen! Therefore, whatever happened in the research roo
Fire Serpent immediately expressed his intention to negotiate. “You’re already standing at death’s door and still dare to negotiate terms with me?” Philip went up and kicked Fire Serpent on his head! After this kick, Fire Serpent felt a buzzing in his head as countless little gold stars were flashing in front of him. The opponent was too brutal. There was no hesitation at all! Fire Serpent's eyes went dark as he fell to the ground while holding his head. His strength seemed to be drained completely. He could not figure it out at all. With just one kick, he was incapacitated with no strength to resist at all! Was he still human? After all, he was the top killer in the organization, but he could not even handle one strike from the opponent! Philip saw that he was lying on the ground and could not recover, so he could not be bothered with him anymore. Instead, he walked to one side and switched on the laboratory lights! In an instant, the entire laboratory was brightly
Wynn’s heart was shaken when she received the text message. Hannah Clarke! Was that the woman who gave her the necklace the other day? Come to think of it, when Philip heard the name that day, he got quite agitated. This woman’s last name was Clarke too. Did she have any special relationship with Philip? Wynn looked at the content of the text message, thought for a long time, and replied, ‘Who are you? How are you related to Philip?’ Ding-dong. A reply came in. ‘If you want to find out, come to the café.’ Should she go? Wynn fell into deep thought. If she went, it signified her distrust of Philip. If she did not go, she would let herself down. After all, Philip was getting more and more unpredictable. Back to the Beacon research lab. The dagger in Fire Serpent’s hand glinted with a cold chill, piercing toward Philip! Unexpectedly, the dagger did not stab into Philip’s chest as Fire Serpent had hoped for! The dagger stopped about an inch away from Philip’s
“Follow you?” Fire Serpent was still in a daze. He did not expect the other party to make such a request. At this moment, he started to be in a dilemma. After all, he was already affiliated with Stinger. If he agreed to Philip’s request, it meant betraying Stinger! It was possible that he would be hunted down due to the betrayal! No one understood the strict discipline of Stinger better than Fire Serpent. If he agreed to Philip’s request, then he would be on Stinger’s wanted list. Things would not be so simple by then. Thinking of the big boss of Stinger, Fire Serpent could not help shivering. Betraying Stinger was a thought that had never crossed Fire Serpent’s mind. However, the reality of it now was giving him dramatic choices. If he did not agree to Philip, he would die immediately! If he did, he was likely to face Stinger’s pursuit! He was puzzled. Philip did not seem to be a member of any organizations, so why would he take him under his wing? Philip looked
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“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
