A simple sentence, yet Martha’s and Juan’s hearts thudded at the sound of it! What did he mean by ‘for his sake’? How could that useless bum say something like that at a time like this! Was his honor that precious? Martha was trembling with anger. Philip was a big talker and knew just when to pick his moment. Was he deliberately trying to embarrass himself and offend Henry? Was it revenge? “Philip, shut up! Who do you think you are? Do you think you have a say in this matter?” Martha admonished with trepidation. She was really worried that Philip, that piece of trash, would accidentally offend someone as important as Henry Turner. He even asked him to let the matter go for his sake. Did he not know how much more noble this man was when compared to him? Philip’s brows knitted together. He had not thought that Martha would be the first to reprimand him. He was trying to get her out of trouble through his kind intentions, but instead, she retaliated. “Why are you s
Right at the moment she said it, Martha already had a hundred plans to seek revenge on Philip. However, just as Juan was about to ask about the matter of visiting a doctor, Henry left.Juan immediately panicked and rushed to catch up.There was only Martha and Philip left in the rest area. The former was staring at Philip fiercely, her eyes filled with a flame of anger."Mom, you didn't..."Slap!Before Philip could finish speaking, Martha had slapped him across the cheek and cursed, "How about it? Does it feel good to have me apologize to you?" ‘I would not be a Yates if I didn't beat you up!’Philip was speechless. His cheek was aching with burning pain, and his fists were pinched tightly in his trousers."Oh, are you unhappy about it? Come hit this old lady if you can. Come on, hit me." Martha immediately pushed Philip with a challenging look.More people had come to look.Then, Martha gave up. Before she left, she glared at Philip fiercely. She scolded, "Useless! Die e
Wynn stepped down from the bed and walked toward Philip's black jacket.The ringing continued to sound in the ward.Just as Wynn picked up the jacket and was about to take the phone out, Philip suddenly walked in and snatched the jacket from her hand. Then, he smiled calmly. "I'm going out to answer the call."After saying this, Philip turned away and walked out of the ward.He took out the phone and had a look at it. It was Wynn's number!He could only hang up.That was too dangerous!At that moment just now, Philip felt like he had gone to another world. His forehead was covered with cold sweat.It was still not a good time to tell Wynn about his identity.It was not that he deliberately wanted to conceal it, but if Wynn came to know about it, she, Mila, and even the entire Johnston family would be in danger. Only Philip himself was aware of this danger.Philip had seen that woman's tactics.During the time when he left his family, that woman had more or less been pushing
Seeing Philip walk away, she turned her head, took Wynn’s hand, and earnestly said, “Oh Wynnie, haven’t I told you? Why do you still want to be with that trash? Are there no good men in this world? I think Aiden isn’t bad. He’s handsome and has a good family background. What counts is that he treats your father and me well.”Wynn felt very helpless. She knew her mother was up to nothing good when she came over.“Mom, please stop talking. I don’t feel like thinking about this now.”Wynn helplessly said. She went up to her bed and lied down sideways.Martha, however, continued talking. “If you don’t like Aiden, Juan is okay too. I see that he’s busy these days. This type of guy is extremely rare now.”When Wynn did not reply to her, Martha got so mad that she groaned.“This girl! How are you so stubborn? What’s good about Philip Clarke? He can’t earn money and has no social connections. His friends are poorer than the others. This type of man is a scum of society.“I don’t care if
Philip’s face darkened. He did not understand. How could Lynn, a university student, owe someone 100,000 bucks?!“What happened?” Philip asked softly.Lynn felt very uncomfortable when she saw the way Philip looked at her. Her whole body felt prickly. It was just like being scrutinized by a roadside beggar.“Hurry up and withdraw the money. Do you still want to see me being held captive by them?” Lynn stared at Philip. He was still standing there dumbly like a blockhead.Although Kyle and Jacob were scared of Dick Jayson, they were not scared of Philip. Since Philip was here, it must mean that this useless bum was afraid of Lynn. It was only natural to make him withdraw the money to save them.“F*ck! What are you looking at! Quickly withdraw the money!” Kyle immediately slammed the table and stood up shouting.In his eyes, Philip was an idiot.However, in the next second, Philip looked at Dick Jayson coldly and said, “I don’t have money, but I must take her with me. As for the o
"Bro, you are so f*cking amusing. No one has ever dared to talk to me like this. You are the first one." Dick lit another cigarette. Taking in a deep breath, he said slowly.As he was saying this, two of his men closed the door of the bar.As it was daytime, the bar was closed. Philip raised his brows. He glanced at the surrounding people. They were all geared up and ready to fight. All of them had a cold smile on their faces.Lynn was also very anxious. She did not expect that it would be a mistake to look for Philip for help. This idiot dared to talk to Dick like that.‘Get lost if you have no money. Why even stay here pretending to be cool?’ "Philip, if you don't have any money, just leave. I don't need you to get in the way," Lynn said coldly.Kyle, Jacob, and the others also followed suit."Damn, after such a long time, this idiot doesn't even have a penny and he’s still trying to be cool in front of Dick.""Dick, I don't know this guy. He has nothing to do with us."
Lynn and the others watched Nino lead his people into the bar.This was one of the underground bosses of Riverdale!The power and capital behind Nino were even more powerful and terrifying!Kyle was so terrified that he had goosebumps all over his skin. His mouth was trembling as he said, "We have to leave quickly. If Master Nino catches us, we will definitely be dead!"Kyle was scared out of his wits. He was only fortunate to have seen Master Nino show off his power before!Harry, who once caused a disturbance in Riverdale, had knelt and spoke in front of Master Nino.After witnessing this scene, Kyle told himself in his heart that if he were to provoke someone, it better not be Master Nino.He was too strong!Moreover, his methods were extremely vicious!Harry, who had been previously undefeated in the hundred rounds of underground black boxing, did not listen to Master Nino's words and refused to fight with fake punches. In the end, he had his hands and feet broken before g
"Last time, that Lynn you mentioned was pretty good. She’s so full of life. I also brought her over this time and the guest appointed her to accompany them," Nino said with a lustful tone. "Hearing from you, she also has a cousin. Wynn something? She’s a famous beauty in our city, a young married woman. Bring her here too. Maybe the guests will like her too. Two sisters... Surely there will be interest."Dick immediately understood and replied, “Master Nino, don't worry. That little girl owes us 100,000 dollars. I heard her cousin is also short on money for her daughter’s surgery recently.""Very good. Do it now." Master Nino laughed.Philip frowned. He thought that only Lynn was involved with this. Unexpectedly, they wanted to drag Wynn into this matter as well!Then, they should not blame him for being rude!As such, Philip did not leave. He stopped, turned around, and walked to Nino with a cold expression on his face."I say, what's the problem? Why haven't you handled this ki
“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
