Chapter 2123

Silas was stunned and looked at Philip incredulously. After a few seconds, he understood.

Glenford was about to undergo tremendous change.

He stared at his old father sitting on the sofa. Pearce nodded, got up, and said to Philip, “Young Master

Clarke, the Gilson family will definitely not fail to meet your expectations. We’ll definitely take care of

everything in Glenford in an orderly manner.”

“Silas, why don’t you kneel and thank Young Master Clarke for his kindness?”

Pearce shouted, and his voice seemed particularly vigorous at this moment.

Silas immediately knelt down, bowed three times, and shouted, “From now on, Silas Gilson of the

Gilson family will serve only Young Master Clarke! The Gilson family will always be Young Master

Clarke’s pawn!”

Swoosh!

In an instant, the Gilson family members who were still standing in the living room all knelt down.

Philip was helpless. After a while, he left the Gilson family. Before he left, Pearce’s complexion looked

very good. He seemed to have suddenly gotten much better. As for Tanya, she stayed behind to take

care of the old man for the time being.

After Philip and Troy left Gilson Manor, Troy sent Philip back to Sparrow Villa.

When Philip returned to Sparrow Villa, he intended to go home directly, but Fulton seemed adamant

about him staying another day. He said that there were other arrangements.

Philip had no choice but to stay for the time being.

In the evening, Troy called. His tone was full of worry as he said, “Young Master Clarke, are you free

now?”

Philip frowned and asked, “What’s up?”

Troy said, “Young Master Clarke, I have a request and hope you can support it. I‘ll send someone to

pick you up and we’ll talk when we meet.”

Philip nodded. He had nothing to do anyway, so he said, “Okay.”

With Troy’s subordinate in the lead, Philip entered a private room on Troy’s turf.

Troy, who was rubbing his temples, hurriedly stood up. “You’re finally here. You should look at this

invitation first ”

Troy picked up the invitation on the table and handed it to Philip.

Philip took the invitation and looked at it. There was nothing much on the exquisite invitation, only the

title ‘Overlord Tournament’, as well as the time and place.

“What does it mean? Someone wants to fight you in a tournament?”

Philip threw the invitation on the table with a smile and sat down on the sofa languidly.

“This is an invitation from the underworld leaders of the three cities. They organized this tournament to

redistribute the territory of Glenford through fighting. This time, I heard rumors that there are big figures

up there who want to get their hands on the territory of Glenford, and this tournament can be regarded

as a prelude.”

Troy’s face was all scrunched up, looking as if he was being bullied. He did not look at all domineering

at this moment.

“I have to attend this tournament Otherwise, I’d only be admitting my cowardice. The loyalty of the men

under me will be shaken. Moreover, I must win the tournament. If I lose, the consequences are not

something I can’t afford.”

If he won, everything would be fine. If he lost, Troy’s men would definitely have second thoughts and

many might even switch loyalties.

This was a life-and-death battle for Troy. He could only succeed and not fail. If he failed, everything

would be gone, even his life.

“So what? Did you ask me to come over late at night to listen to your sob story?” Philip asked with a

smile.

“Of course not. I’m here to ask you for help. I don’t have any powerful experts under me so I want to

ask you to deploy a few experts to help me fight in the toumament. For example, you can just send any

two of those people you had with you during the day.”

Troy looked at Philip expectantly while feeling extremely tense. If Philip refused to help, Troy would

most likely not survive this disaster. Besides, Troy had witnessed the skills of those people by Philip’s

side during the day.

Just as Philip reached out for a cigarette, Troy wittily placed a cigarette in Philip’s hand and helped

Philip light it with a pure gold lighter.

After taking a drag, Philip said indifferently, “Who are the people from the three cities?”

“There are several families but the leader is a member of the Hale family from the district capital by the

name of Willis Hale. He specializes in dealing with the unsightly affairs of the Hale family and is

notorious for his viciousness.”

Hearing the Hale family, Philip was startled.
