The First Heir Chapter 422
Martha took a moment to process that and then instantly blew up. “What do you mean by that, Philip? Your uncle is inviting you to dinner, but you can’t be bothered? Do you think I want to invite you? If you want to say hi, come over yourself!”Martha then hung up in a huff.That Philip was getting more unreasonable by the day.Philip was a little taken aback too, but it seemed like he had no choice. He had to attend that night, after all.He gave Wynn a call, telling her he was going to pick her up from work that night.It just so happened that George had just bought him a car recently. It was nothing too fancy, just a BMW 5 Series. That would do for his purposes.That night, Philip drove his brand-new BMW and waited for Wynn outside her office building.When she saw the new car, Wynn froze for a long while too. She was both pleasantly surprised and confused. “Where did you get the money to buy this car?”Philip leaned on the car door, wearing shades. He looked quite dashing li

Wynn paused and looked at Philip suspiciously. She was very confused.Uncle Mont and his family had already insured them to such an extent, so why was Philip saying they would stay?Martha was enraged too. She had already stood up and prepared to leave, but she froze when Philip said that.Now she could not go or stay.Well, that was awkward.“What are you doing, Philip? Who told you to babble? Hurry up and apologize to your aunt and uncle?”Martha was left with nothing better to do, so she took her temper out on Philip as usual.The Renners were doing very well for themselves in Golden City. They were the richest and most powerful out of all their distant relatives.As a result, they took every chance they could get to insult the Johnstons.As the years passed, Martha grew gradually more intimidated by the Renners. These days, she was relatively tamer the moment she saw them. Although Charles used to be a section head, that was still nothing compared to what Mont Renner had

"Oh, a delivery boy? But that makes no sense, didn't he say his wife is a chairwoman or something?" said someone in surprise."A chairwoman? What does it matter if she's the chairwoman of some two-bit company?"Fern rudely called Philip out. "Stop stuffing your face like that, Philip. Can't you hear that your elders are talking to you?"She was proud and arrogant!Mont saw what she was doing and wanted to stop her, but eventually he just shook his head helplessly.He had already done enough to protect these poor relatives of his.To be honest, he also wanted to use this chance to wake Philip up. He wanted to show Philip just how far behind he had fallen so far the latter might buck up and go to work like a proper adult.It was so embarrassing for a man to live off his wife like that.Martha also glared at Philip, who was still preoccupied with his food. She yelled, "Philip, your aunt is talking to you! Say something!"Philip was embarrassing enough at home, but why did he have

Nick rapidly approached Philip, visibly delighted as he said, “You’re here too, Mr. Clarke! What a pleasure it is to see you here.”Philip was talking to Wynn. When he heard Nick’s voice, he raised his head and found that he did not know the man in front of him. “And you are?”“Oh, you wouldn’t remember little old me. I’m in charge of property matters in these parts, my name is Nick Cage. The ruckus my son Mickey caused at Longford today was my fault, I didn’t raise him well enough. I hope you don’t mind, Mr. Clarke.”Nick heaped on the flattery, his words filled with adulation.Philip finally remembered who he was. He said with a smile, “Good to see you too, Director Cage.”Nick wanted to talk to Philip more and get closer to him, but Mont and the others were also approaching them now, looking far from pleased.Next to Philip, Wynn was looking at him suspiciously.So Philip even knew the higher-ups in the property circle?“Hey, do you know Nick Cage?”Wynn tugged at Philip’s

“Renner, why aren’t you apologizing to Mr. Clarke? Don’t you want your project to be approved?”Nick stopped smiling and began to weaponize his authority instead.Mont immediately panicked. Very reluctantly, he told Philip, “Sorry, I was rude to you just now. I hope you won’t hold it against your uncle.”Philip smiled. “No worries, Uncle Mont. We are family, after all.”Everyone burst out laughing at that, all to try and ease the tension in the air.Only Cindi and her mother continued to look constipated. They wanted to criticize Philip some more, but they never expected that good-for-nothing to know someone as impressive as Nick Cage.The others were shocked as well, but they hid their reaction behind awkward smiles.Just a second ago, that man was a worthless wretch just about anyone could criticize, but now they were saying that he was friends with Nick Cage, a director at the Land Registry. What a miraculous turn of events!Everyone returned to the room, but over the meal,

Wynn was beside herself with anxiety. “I don’t know! The hospital called and said it was an accident.”An accident?F*ck!Philip slammed the gas and raced toward the hospital.Once they reached the hospital, Wynn scrambled out of the car. There were a great many ambulances crowding the entrance, and the casualties kept streaming in.The hospital was in complete chaos!Several dozen nurses and doctors were yelling at the top of their voices,“Over here, over here! This one’s critical! Stop the bleeding, stat!”“We need oxygen over here!”“Hurry up and get more hands in from other hospitals! Call the director!”The scene was a complete mess. There was an endless stream of victims covered in blood getting carted out of the ambulances!The whole place smelled of blood!There were missing arms and legs everywhere!The wailing never stopped!Wynn was faint with shock. Her entire body trembled and she clapped her hand over her mouth, looking for something amongst the bodies cove

“What, now the two of you are ganging up to defend that wretch? Won’t you spare a thought for me at all?”Martha was furious and especially unhappy when she saw that Charles and Wynn were united against her.She was the master of this household.Philip was nothing!“Mom, could you stop being so unreasonable?”Wynn was flabbergasted. What was wrong with her mother now? Why did she have such a temper all of a sudden?”“I’m being unreasonable? Look at him, he’s just standing there! He could’ve at least asked to look at our wounds. We might seem fine at first, but what if we’re more badly injured somewhere you can’t see? All he’s doing is standing there. I bet he just wants us to die as soon as possible!”Martha said fiercely, her brows raised viciously and her expression icy. Her gaze shone with her rage at Philip.“Alright, Mom, Dad. I’ll go call a doctor now.”Philip had no choice. He turned and jogged off to get a doctor.Even Philip had no idea how he had survived three year
The First Heir Chapter 429
Philip looked at Wynn’s curious gaze and mused it over for a moment before saying, “Actually, Wynn, Nick knows Giada. He’s just polite to me out of respect to her.”Giada?Wynn blinked. It suddenly occurred to her that Philip’s stepmother seemed like a very impressive woman.She nodded to show that she believed him. “No wonder. And here I thought that you were…”“That I’m what?”Philip was suddenly nervous.Did Wynn stumble onto something?“No, it’s nothing. We should just go to sleep now, okay? I have a ton of work to do tomorrow."Wynn smiled and did not pursue that train of thought further.After a few days, Martha had mostly recovered and started getting back to her old tricks in the villa again.When Charles saw how she mumbled to herself all day about coming up with a name for the villa, he was once again flabbergasted. "Martha Yates, could you stop your ridiculous plotting for one second? Isn't it enough for us to just stay here as one big happy family? Do you have t

“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
The First Heir Chapter 6324
“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

“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
The First Heir Chapter 6321
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste

The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han

It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str

“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
