《The First Heir》全部章節：第 531 章 - 第 540 章

“Martha Yates! You’re simply incorrigible! I’ve had enough of you! Don’t think I don’t know what wicked things you’ve done! Things have progressed to this stage, can’t you face the reality?”Charles roared and the whole living room resounded with his angry voice.Martha was stunned.She had never seen her husband in such a rage before.“You… You dare to hit me? You hit me!”Martha went mad and attempted to scratch Charles.Charles was getting a headache, so he shoved Martha away, entered the study alone, and locked the door from the inside.Martha sobbed and howled as she sat on the ground, beating her chest and wailing.“Damn you, Charles Johnston, you’ve finally admitted it. You despise me for being old and dislike me for being unreasonable, right?”Martha wept and bawled. “Divorce! I want to divorce you! I can’t stay in this family any longer! You and Wynn are turncoats, siding with Philip all the time. What’s so good about that wretch? He just has a bit of money now. Who k

“According to our current contract, Michaels Corp will only take 30% of the profit. At the board meeting, we decided that if we don’t pull out, we’ll have to pour a lot more resources into this project. That would mean an investment far beyond anything else we’ve risked so far, so we’ll need more potential profit to balance that risk.”Blake was very adept at reading the room, and his next words immediately shut down the chaos that had erupted in the conference room. “50%! We want 50% of the ROI, and we require Beacon to give us the patent and data for the new drug.”“Impossible! That’s not how business works! 50% is higher than we can afford. As for the data, we already agreed that it will only ever belong to Beacon!”Wynn’s expression turned cold and her tone sharp. “You’re violating the contract without reason!”Wynn was now extremely unfriendly to Blake. He was clearly trying to get everything for nothing!Blake’s eyes twinkled. He never expected Wynn to agree off the bat eith

At around three or four that afternoon, the company suddenly called for a management meeting, leaving everyone worried.To make things worse, someone somehow leaked the news that the Michaels were pulling out of their deal!“Damn it! Who leaked it? Who spread the rumor? Find out!”In the chairwoman’s office, Wynn was so furious that her body shook with rage. “Also, get every member of the management to the conference room for a meeting later!”Nina had never seen her boss so angry before, and she said hurriedly, “Yes, ma’am. I’ll get right to it.”With that, she hastily left the chairwoman’s office and stood outside the door to catch her breath.“What’s the matter, Nina?”That sudden voice startled Nina into looking up. It was Philip.“Why did you come up here?” she asked.Philip scratched his head and glanced at the chairwoman’s office, saying bewilderedly, “Madam Johnston asked me to drop by.”Nina nodded and suddenly reminded him, “Be careful what you say later. She’s rath

“Damn punk, you asked for this!”His expression darkening, one of the guards pulled the baton from his waist and rushed forward, swinging it down at Philip’s head!If that hit landed, it would definitely crack Philip’s skull!Philip raised a brow, his expression rapidly turning cold. His aura suddenly turned sharp as a knife!He never expected them to come for the kill like this!The next instant, Philip had taken the baton from the guard’s hand. At the same time, while the guard was still stunned, Philip lashed his foot out and sent the guard flying out through the glass window!Crash!The glass shattered and the guard flew out of the window. He crashed into the ground and stayed down!The remaining guard was terrified and trembling now. He hurriedly fell to his knees and begged, “Please, Brother Clarke, spare me! We were just proceeding on Mr. Michaels’ orders, please don’t…”Bam!Philip simply kicked the guard out of the door.The entire door fell on its hinges from the i

“What’s going on?”Philip walked over in a hurry and held her hands, asking her.Wynn sobbed, “They said that the villa doesn’t belong to us anymore, so they’re here to kick us out.”Philip frowned deeply. This was clearly Giada’s doing.Indeed, George had been the one who initially bought this villa, and he used the family’s assets to do so.Giada was well within her rights to take it back.However, this was mere child’s play to both Giada and Philip. It was more like she was just causing him trouble on purpose.“Stop, this is our home! What right do you have to throw our stuff out? This is robbery, it’s trespassing! I’m calling the cops!”Martha was covered in sweat as she desperately tried to stop the bodyguards in black.However, they ignored her and merely shoved her aside, sending her falling onto her butt on the floor.“Help, robbers! Daylight robbery! Oh, where is the justice?!”Martha just sat on the floor and wailed, slapping her thighs and making a scene.Her hai
