After her words fell, Giada stepped out while leading her people and walked out of the hall. Miguel did not bother to get involved, so he pulled a maid into the room and started his wonderful life. Here, at the gates of Cirrus Villa, all eight shadow guards had gotten out of the cars. They were confronting the dozens of death warriors and guards of the Wallis family. In fact, the shadow guards could easily deal with all these people. Even if another platoon turned up, it would be a piece of cake for them. However, the master had given orders for them to keep a low profile. The eight people looked indifferent. Compared to the dozens of death warriors standing nervously on the opposite, they were simply strolling around leisurely. The atmosphere on both sides could not be more different. One side was flustered while the other was laid back. In the eyes of the shadow guards, these people were shrimps that were not worth mentioning. After a while, there was a commotion
After that, Miguel was taken to the hall in a disheveled state with several guards standing behind him. As for the housekeeper, he dragged the maid along and threw her into the living room before yelling, “B*tch! How dare you seduce the young master?! Men, drag her out and execute her!” “Ah! No, I won’t do it anymore. Please let me go!” The maid sobbed bitterly while naked, grabbing Miguel and begging for mercy. “Young Master, please speak up for me. I don’t want to die!” However, Miguel just glared at her angrily. He then went up, kicked her, and cursed, “F*ck off!” Such a farce was witnessed by Roger who was by the door. Giada was even more furious. In the past, no matter how Miguel fooled around, she would not intervene. However, today was different. Roger was present. “Miguel, get out right now!” Giada rebuked as she motioned with her eyes to the housekeeper. The housekeeper quickly grabbed Miguel and whispered, “Young Master, there are guests at home. Let’s g
As soon as this was said, the temperature in the entire hall dropped sharply! The coldness was terrifying! Even for the arrogant and domineering Miguel Wallis, when he came into contact with the cold gaze of 24 at this moment, sweat beaded unconsciously on his forehead as he swallowed a mouthful of spit. What a strong killing intent! The other party really dared to kill him! This was Miguel's most intuitive feeling! However, according to Miguel’s temper, how could he take this lying down so easily? He was very upset and immediately yelled, “Someone like you dares to kill me? Do you know who I am? I’m Miguel Wallis!” 24 snorted, looked back at Fulton helplessly, and asked, “Boss, is it okay if I kill him?” When he said this, 24 was completely indifferent. Even Giada, who stood next to Roger at this moment, dared not open her mouth to say anything. She blamed herself for pampering him too much, so much that he was so defiant now. “Miguel, you’re too presumptuous!”
Roger smiled and said, “Let’s wait for him to return before we discuss this matter. You should do your duty in taking care of the cooperation between the main and branch family. Don’t be too concerned about other things. I’ve my own arrangements.” It was a warning in disguise. Of course, Giada could discern the meaning. He was telling her not to dip her fingers in too many pies. Her handling the cooperation with the branch family was more than enough. However, how could Giada be content with that? Her ambition was not just the cooperation between the main and branch families. She wanted everything from the Clarke family and the power of the entire Arcadia Island! She wanted to complete the magnificent conquest that the Wallis family had not achieved for many years! Therefore, upon hearing this, Giada’s eyebrows furrowed. She raised her eyes to look at Roger and said, “You’re still wary of me.” Roger acquiesced, took a sip of the tea in his hand, and said, “Once the taste
Tim shook his head and chuckled. “That brat must be fooling around somewhere. Let’s not bother about him and drink to our brotherhood today.” Roger smiled in concurrence. The convoy, as well as Tim’s men, quickly left Cirrus Villa. The brewing storm dissipated in peace. A few days later, the annual underground chamber of commerce finally began! Early in the morning, Theo took Anna, Tiger, and his men to wait at the gates of First Palace. Six black Mercedes were parked at the entrance, as well as Theo’s Maybach in the middle. Such a scene would definitely shock the outside world if they found out about it! The big shot of Riverdale, Theo Zander, actually brought his men personally to wait respectfully at the gates. Who on earth could warrant such treatment? It was after about ten minutes before Philip walked out of the villa with Mila in his arms. As Wynn was still in the hospital for recuperation and Anne was taking care of her, he had to take care of the child. See
Even a big shot like Theo had to open the door to greet him? Wayne was not stupid. He instantly noticed something. There were rumors that people of the South River District would join hands to topple Theo this time. Now, it seemed that Theo had invited someone formidable with him. It would be another tough battle. Philip sat in the car with a sleeping Mila in his arms. After a while, he gently carried her and got out of the car. Anna also quickly got out of the car, standing beside Philip respectfully while helping him carry Mila’s daily necessities. This scene was even more bizarre in the eyes of Wayne and the other Kingsley family members. They brought a child? What was going on here? Wayne was in a daze. Behind him, the juniors of the Kingsley family started talking in low voices. “Is this the person that Theo Zander found? This must be the first time anyone brought a kid to attend the underground chamber of commerce.” “I don’t understand it. Maybe he’s already
Everyone turned in the direction of that voice and saw a group with dozens of people walking in from the door. The leader was a bald man with sunglasses. He was smoking a cigar and wearing a mink coat. His neck and hands were full of gold accessories and several jade rings. His attitude was arrogant! The pompadour was grand! There were also two hot and sexy women next to him with his arms around them. They looked very enticing with long legs and big chests. Behind them followed a bunch of tattooed and swaggering punks, all of them looking murderous. Cecil Dane! The third major force of the South River District! Everyone called him Master Cecil! He founded the Cecily Group that now had assets of more than one billion! As soon as Cecil appeared and stood in the lobby, the awe-inspiring atmosphere shocked everyone in the hall. What a domineering appearance! “Damn! It’s Master Cecil! He came here too!” “The underground chamber of commerce this time is going to b
Seeing that both sides were about to come to blows, Wayne Kingsley, who had been watching on the sidelines all this while, quickly stepped forward and said with a grin, “My honored guests, please calm down. Since you’re already in Phoenicia, what’s there to argue about? The underground chamber of commerce will be held two days later. If there is any animosity, you can fight it out during the event. Now, let’s make peace.” Cecil and Theo glared at Wayne at the same time, snorting. Wayne was also sweating profusely. It was not easy to be a peacemaker. A little carelessness would either offend this side, or that side, and maybe even both sides. Seeing that both parties had calmed down, Wayne quickly signaled to the lobby manager and said, “Why don’t you take Master Cecil to check-in and rest?” The lobby manager immediately came running and said flatteringly, “Master Cecil, please come this way.” Cecil glanced at Theo coldly. As he walked past Philip, he directly threatened him
“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
