Hugo Phillips gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care who paid you or how much to kill us. I'll give you five times that amount! Plus, the Phillips family will pay you five hundred million dollars annually. You can do whatever you want with it!"

At this point, he just needed to ensure one of them survived.

The masked man laughed darkly, "Old fool, do you think I'm interested in money?"

Serena Phillips spoke up, "What do you need? We'll try our best to satisfy your demands, but please show mercy and spare us."

"Heh... I need your head!"

The masked man looked at Serena Phillips and smiled, "Your granddaughter is quite lovely. Why doesn't she come with me and serve me well? Then I'll spare your grandfather. How about that?"

At these words, Serena Phillips' expression changed dramatically.

She felt an icy chill instantly penetrate her entire body.

This man was targeting her.

Immediately, Hugo Phillips positioned himself in fr

    She had just returned from abroad—rushed over to see him—and this was her welcome?Had he fallen out of love with her?That couldn’t be it.Even if he had, why would he come to save her in the first place?So what was going on?Bonnie’s heart sank. She sobbed, “Mr. Harris… what’s happening? Why—why did you hit me?”She was confused—but too scared to get angry.Even if Isaiah stripped her bare in public, she wouldn’t dare resist.He was her master—and not someone she could afford to offend."You filthy woman! Damn right I hit you. Why the fuck are you still asking why?!"Without hesitation, Isaiah Harris lashed out again, kicking Bonnie hard in the stomach."Ahh!!"Bonnie cried out in pain, collapsing to the ground in a wretched heap—miserable and humiliated.Then Isaiah scampered over to Anthony, bent at a full ninety degrees, and forced a groveling smile. “Mr. Jones, I truly had no idea this wretched woman offended you. This is entirely my fault. Let me apologize sincerely—I’ll deal

    Bonnie suddenly felt a wave of unease.The reversal had happened so quickly, she couldn’t even process it.Anthony looked at her dazed expression and sneered coldly. “I don’t have time to waste on you. If you don’t call Isaiah Harris right now, I’ll smash your car to pieces.”“You wouldn’t dare!!” Bonnie screamed.Anthony raised an eyebrow and smiled. “There’s nothing I don’t dare.”“Hmph! If you damage my car, Mr. Harris will never let you off the hook.” Bonnie had no other way to threaten him now—mentioning Isaiah Harris was all she had left.Without hesitation, Anthony raised his arm.In an instant, one of the bodyguards was lifted off the ground.“Ahhh!!” the man screamed in panic, his face turning pale.The crowd gasped in shock.They had seen martial artists before—but this young man’s strength was something else. Unbelievable.The next second—Anthony swung his arm.Boom!A heavy thud rang out as the bodyguard was slammed onto the car.The Porsche Panamera’s roof caved in, and

    The murmurs from the crowd were all directed at the woman, their voices heavy with condemnation.But instead of feeling ashamed, she looked even more arrogant. “What’s it got to do with you people? This is between me and him. Mind your damn business!”Everyone shook their heads.They now understood she was nothing but a shrew and didn’t bother arguing anymore.After all, she drove a luxury car—not someone the average person wanted to mess with.Most chose to stay silent, preferring peace over conflict.At that moment, the woman turned to Anthony, her tone even more outrageous. “I’m telling you—without at least a million, don’t even think about leaving!”She had no other agenda.She simply wanted to extort some money.After all, such opportunities didn’t come often.She could tell the man and the woman weren’t keen on creating trouble, which made her even bolder.And she wasn’t worried about the police or consequences.She had backing in Silverhaven.Her patron was none other than Isai

    The security guards roared in unison and immediately began attacking the group without hesitation.After all, the welfare home staff were just ordinary people—no match for the trained guards.Within moments, the staff were beaten black and blue, groaning and crying in pain.Seeing this, Director Osborne couldn’t hold back his tears.Today was nothing short of a disaster for them.“Children, quickly! Go hide in the cafeteria!”Director Osborne urged the children inside and locked the doors behind them.Meanwhile, Nicholas O’Connor’s men stormed into the dormitories and began a frenzied search.Director Osborne’s heart sank in despair.It seemed that the check couldn’t be saved today.But as long as the children were safe, that was all that mattered.Soon, the staff of the welfare home were all lying on the ground, unable to get up from the beatings.Not long after—“Boss, we found it…”“Over here!! Fuck, a hundred million!!”A voice shouted excitedly from Osborne’s office.Moments late

    The next morning. Welfare Orphanage. It was eight o'clock, breakfast time.Today, Director Osborne looked especially cheerful. He called out to the children in the dining hall, “Kids! Eat up! After breakfast, I’ll take you all to the Ocean Park!”“Yay!!”“I want to see the big shark!”“I want to see the big tiger!”“Dummy, how can there be tigers at Ocean Park!”Laughter and excited chatter filled the air as the children burst into cheers.To them, any trip outside was pure happiness.Director Osborne chuckled and added, “If you all eat well, I’ll take you to both Ocean Park and the zoo. How about that?”“Director, you’re the best!”“We’ll be good! You have to show us the big tiger!”The children’s voices rang out in unison.Osborne and the staff exchanged smiles.Now that they had Anthony’s donations, the pressure on the orphanage had lessened significantly.

    In that split second, the assassin pulled the trigger.Bang!Bullets tore through the night sky, whistling toward Anthony.But just as the rounds flew, Anthony summoned the energy within him. His body trembled slightly—And in a flash, a golden energy shield formed in front of him.Clang!The bullet struck the barrier with a sharp, metallic ring, as if it had hit a wall of steel.“What?!” the assassin gasped.He fired several more rounds in rapid succession.Bang bang bang!Muffled by the silencer, the shots sparked against the golden shield.Ding ding ding!None of the bullets made it through.The assassin was stunned.He didn’t hesitate—his finger tightened on the trigger again.But in that moment, Anthony moved.Thud!A deep, dull impact echoed.“Ugh!” the assassin cried.He hadn’t even seen what happened—only a blur of shadow before his whole body felt like it had been hit by a freight train.
