The First Heir Chapter 2062
Back to Philip’s side. In the afternoon, he brought Wynn and Mila to his third mother’s residence. Aria Tsar’s place was plain and simple. The decoration style was homely and elegant. At Wynn and the child’s arrival, Aria came out from the backyard with a loving smile on her face. She stepped forward and took Wynn’s hand while saying, “Wynnie, I’ve heard so much about you from Hazel and Nadia. Seeing you today, you’re indeed a beauty. Come here and sit down. You just gave birth and shouldn’t stand for too long.” “Third Mother.” Wynn inclined slightly and addressed her politely. Aria was very fond of Wynn and Mila. “This must be Mila. How cute!” Aria pinched Mila’s chubby face dotingly. Wynn said to Mila, “This is Third Grandma.” Mila looked up at Aria with her big eyes and greeted, “Third Grandma.” Aria kept laughing happily and started chatting with Wynn and Mila. Poor Philip was just a decoration next to them. After the meal, Wynn and Aria chatted for a few mo

After Christian stood up, the elders and people in charge of the branch family, as well as the young masters and young ladies, finally dared to follow suit. Then, Christian left the memorial hall with the man in his 50s. After Christian left, the other members of the branch family in the memorial hall finally dared to air their grievances. “Oh, my legs are numb! It's all that damned Philip’s fault!” “Yes, damn it! After kneeling here all night, I’m nearly starving to death!” The group of pampered young masters and young ladies felt dizzy. They could not wait to leave the memorial hall and go back to the comfort of their own homes. In the memorial hall, more than a dozen elders and people in charge of the branch family remained. At this moment, they looked at each other. Some helplessly shook their heads and sighed before saying, “I’ll be going back, then. After one night of suffering, my body can’t take it anymore.” “I’m leaving too. I still have things to handle at the

Salem smiled and said, “All of you have been used by Philip. To be precise, we’re Philip’s pawns. After all the trouble yesterday, everyone's eyes are now on the branch family and Philip. If anything happens to Philip from now on, everyone will suspect the branch family. When the time comes, even if we didn’t do it, it’ll become our doing. So, do you still want to make a move against Philip?” “This…” Instantly, everyone was speechless! When they thought about it carefully, it was true! “Damn it! That brat is actually using us as pawns and shields!” Desmond was not a fool and instantly figured it out. Not only could the branch family not make a move against Philip, but they even had to try to protect him now! That was because now everyone knew that the conflict between the branch family and Philip had escalated to the point that it could not be resolved! If an interested party used this to attack Philip and anything happened to him, everyone’s eyes would be focused on th

Levi and Lex had never gotten along. They had little interaction with each other. Today, Lex actually came to see Levi, which caused a sense of foreboding to well in his heart. While thinking, he said to the butler, “Send him in.” Soon, Lex walked into the hall and saw Levi sitting on the sofa in the living room. At this moment, Levi's cheeks were still flushed and his body reeked of alcohol. When Lex entered, he first bowed and said, “Hello, Levi.” Levi glanced at Lex indifferently and said with a smirk, “Oh, my second brother is here. I wonder why you’re looking for me. This is the first time you’ve visited my humble abode in recent years. I always thought my place was too shabby for your liking.” A dagger was hidden in his smile. Levi’s words were to give Lex a tongue-lashing. Lex smiled and said, “Levi, you must be joking. It’s just your mighty reputation that prevented me from visiting.” “Hehe, since you’re here today, are you saying that my reputation isn’t as
The First Heir Chapter 2066
After that, Lex turned around, returned to Levi’s side, and said, “Levi, this matter is actually very simple. Since Philip is already on bad terms with the branch family, we can do this…” After half an hour of conversation, Lex bowed and left Levi’s residence. At this moment, Levi stood in front of the gate with his hands behind his back and looked at Lex’s departing back. The smile on his lips gradually solidified, replaced by coldness! “Men, monitor Lex’s every move. No matter what he does and whoever he meets, even what he eats, I want a detailed report on everything!” Suddenly, Levi said solemnly. “Yes, Young Master Levi.” Behind him, a guard replied. … Back to Lex’s villa. In the living room of the villa, a burly man sat on the floor with his eyes fixed on the TV as he played video games. The woman with a sultry figure sat on the side, fiddling with her phone. She was live-streaming on a live broadcast platform. After he returned, Lex stood in the living room and
The First Heir Chapter 2067
In the residence living room, Philip sat on the sofa and looked at Lex who was sitting on the side. He smiled and asked, “Why did you come to see me?” Lex took a sip of the tea made by the servant and placed the teacup on the table. With a smile, he said, “I’m here to admire the mighty air of the young master of the main family.” Philip chuckled with a subtle glint in his eyes and said, “Hurry up and state your business. I have to accompany my wife out later.” Lex nodded and said directly, “I want to cooperate with you.” “Cooperate?” Philip chuckled and asked, “Have you mentioned this to Levi?” Hearing this, Lex raised his brows slightly, nodded, and said with a smile, “I have, and he has agreed to it.” “In that case, by coming here to talk to me, are you going to be the middleman who puts on a show just so you can sit back and watch the two of us fight while waiting to reap the benefits?” Philip asked smilingly as the look on his face gradually darkened. Lex nodded,
The First Heir Chapter 2068
In the afternoon, Philip took Wynn away from Clarke Manor. As Wynn had just arrived on Arcadia Island and was unfamiliar with many places, Philip planned to bring her out and go shopping. Secondly, Philip wanted to see how Arcadia Island had changed over the years and to see how far the branch family’s hands had reached. At the first stop, Philip brought Wynn to one of the main family’s business properties on Arcadia Island. George Thomas was the butler responsible for several of the main family's properties on Arcadia Island. “Young Master, you’re here.” George smiled flatteringly and said to Wynn, “Young Madam, you look much better now.” Wynn smiled and said to George, “Mr. Thomas, I still can't believe that you’re the Clarke family’s butler.” George smiled and said, “Young Madam, there are still many things you won’t believe in the future, so learn to accept them as soon as possible.” Wynn took a deep breath and looked at Philip who was grinning broadly beside her.
The First Heir Chapter 2069
George stroked his beard and said, “Yes, this is the card.” Then, George said earnestly, “Young Madam, is there a golden island symbol on the bottom left corner of this card?” Wynn took a look and really saw it. In the past, Philip gave her this card and told her that there was some money in it that she could use on a rainy day. At this moment, Wynn looked at Philip and pursed her lips. Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets and smiled faintly. If he remembered correctly, this card was issued at the bank in Riverdale last time. There should be one billion in it. Back then, when Martha went to check the balance, she was almost scared to death by 100 million! When Philip opened an account for Wynn, he deposited one billion. George knew about this. After all, Philip’s property distribution must be done through the Clarke family’s vault. Thus, George contacted the bank president at that time. The card issued to Wynn was also the Clarke family’s exclusive card! Howeve

The First Heir Chapter 6351
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for attending the lark family’s grand ceremony of the century,” a man announced in the middle of the square, and the bride stood next to him with a happy smile on her face. If Adam was present, he would definitely recognize the bride as the woman he had been dreaming of over the years, Ashley Bay. A handsome man stood next to the bride. His every move was imposing and domineering. They looked like the perfect match. Everyone looked at this scene and blessed them happily. “After a series of careful selection, I finally found the most suitable husband for my daughter. This is an important event for the lark people!” The lark people had a high status, and everyone wanted to marry into this family. After many selections, the bridegroom finally won the bride’s hand in marriage. Over the years, countless men had flocked around Ashley. After observations from all aspects, this man fit all the criteria—so much so that Adam had long been forgotten.

“This boot records various information about the lark people that may be very important to you. I believe you’ll understand after reading it.” After saying this, Renee handed the boot to Adam. She was not a fool. She knew that Philip was not the person initiating the search. Although Adam always remained calm, he could not hide his eagerness at all. Adam looked at Renee gratefully and took the book and started reading it without further ado. The more he read, the more shocked he felt. In the end, he was full of disbelief as if he could not believe what he saw. “Is this for real?” Adam finished reading the boot quickly and handed it to Philip and Carlos. The other two flipped through the book curiously. Philip scowled. He could not tell whether the information was true or false. “Is it true that the lark people have such an ability? It's recorded in the book that they can create a world. That’s simply…” Carlos was puzzled. Only a very powerful being could create a world. Was

“Please tell me how to find them. I want to find out what’s going on, even if it's just to convince myself to give up.” Adam decided that he still wanted to find the other party. No matter what, he had to get to the bottom of it. If everything was a lost cause, he would give up. Hearing that, Renee seemed conflicted as if deciding whether to tell them everything. “It doesn’t do me any good to tell you this. Why should I take the risk for no reason? I do business. You need to pay a price for it,” Renee said with a smile. Philip laughed. The words sounded very familiar to him as if he said them before. He used to say such things when he was doing business just to bluff some dumb customers. “Of course, I know you do business. If you’re willing to tell us something, we can offer you something in return, whether money or other resources,” Philip said with calm confidence. No matter what the other party wanted, he could easily provide it. Renee smiled at Philip’s words. “It's

The woman seemed amused by Philip’s request. “I know what you’re worried about. Don’t worry, I’m not a liar. Although my actions don’t seem aboveboard to you, I’m not a bad person.” The woman did not hide anything. She knew that Philip had seen through the secret of her singing. As the only man who discovered her secret, she admired Philip very much. She once vowed that she would marry the man who could resist the temptation of her singing. “By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Renee, and I'm an employee of Moon Tavern. My job is very simple, that is to bring in more profits to the tavern.” Renee seemed very sincere and told them everything about herself. “However, my method isn’t very aboveboard. You already know that I make profits by using my singing to attract customers.” Renee mentioned her secret frankly, and Philip was surprised by her honesty. “As for the secret between me and the lark people, I can tell you that they hate me so much because some
The First Heir Chapter 6347
Seeing everyone’s reaction, Philip was all the more interested in this mysterious existence. He wanted to find out who they were to act so arrogantly. Obviously, the lark people were stronger than anyone could imagine. Ordinary people were afraid of this family no matter how powerful they were. Maybe the storyteller felt uncomfortable at the mention of this family, but he quickly left after a while. Philip and the others were disappointed that they could not find out the news they wanted. When they thought that they had to return in defeat, a woman appeared and looked at them calmly. The woman was wearing a veil on her face, making it impossible to see her appearance. The veil was quite an extraordinary item that could block various detections. However, Philip recognized her at a glance. She was the woman singing on the stage just now. She actually approached them. Things were getting more and more interesting. “What you want to know is taboo. Come with me if you want to fi
The First Heir Chapter 6346
Meanwhile, backstage at Moon Tavern, the waiter was telling the woman singing on stage earlier about what had happened in the private room. The woman was full of disbelief, thinking the waiter was lying. “Don’t try to bluff me. How could anyone resist my attack?” The woman wore a veil on her face and looked very mysterious. Only the woman knew how disgusting she looked when she was not performing or casting spells. Covering her face was the best choice. The waiter told her what happened and described the state Philip and the others were in earlier. Although two people were affected, it was a problem because one person had remained conscious.They would face a lot of problems if other people discovered their tricks. The woman's tricks were extraordinary. Even a powerful person with superb strength would find it difficult to get rid of her attack. These so-called strong experts would only end up falling for her trick. At this time, the storyteller went on stage, and he was t

Philip nodded. “Do I have to order something else?” A hint of realization flashed in Philip’s eyes. He realized what was going on. The woman had the ability to bewitch the customers by affecting their thinking and emotions through singing and inducing them into spending money. She exuded a special charm to attract the customers even though she looked ordinary. In their minds, she was an unattainable goddess. Everyone saw a different woman in their minds but charming nonetheless, tempting them to spend money on her even though it would cost them all their fortune. However, Philip was different. He could control his emotions very well, so this woman had almost no influence on him. He realized this problem when he first heard that mysterious song. The waiter scowled and finally left the private room in horror after much deliberation. Philip did not say anything at his hasty departure. The woman quickly left the stage after playing her zither, and the bewitched customers
The First Heir Chapter 6344
“Something is wrong. I find that woman a little weird.” Hearing that, they were curious to find out how Philip concluded that. “Although she’s not that good-looking, I don’t think she’s weird. What do you think is wrong with her?” Carlos said in puzzlement, wondering why Philip felt that this woman was weird. “The woman seems to have a fatal attraction to the male customers. It’s a scary ability to make these men flock to her.” It was weird that a woman with average looks could attract so many men. No one would believe that she had a strong appeal. “Welcome to Moon Tavern. I’ll be singing a song for you today. I hope you like it.” The woman's delicate voice rang, and everyone felt relaxed and happy. Even Philip felt that this voice was very charming, like the sound of nature ringing in his ears. However, Philip was not a fool. He keenly sensed something wrong with the situation. Nothing would be charming enough to attract him. For it to happen meant that something was wro

“Give us three pots of tea. We don’t need anything else. Thank you.” Philip did not order anything else. In his opinion, he was just here to find information, so his money should be spent on things that mattered the most. The waiter rolled his eyes at the order and seemed to look down on Philip. “Customers, are you sure you only want a few pots of tea? We have many snacks too,” the waiter said in disdain. Carlos was more concerned about his image, so he was shocked by the waiter’s obvious disdain. “Yes, we only need a pot of tea each. We want to have a taste first.” Adam's attitude was much better, speaking with a friendly smile on his face. Even if the waiter was angry, he could do nothing about it. The waiter left cursing under his breath. He thought that they were big customers, but they did not even give him a tip. Philip glanced at the waiter helplessly. Even waiters were so arrogant nowadays. Philip and the others were quickly served three pots of tea. The pots
