“How about it, Mr. Clarke? It’s time for you to reveal your card! Now that you’ve seen my hole card, are your hands shaking so much that they can’t hold onto your card anymore?” the foreigner taunted. Philip said to the foreigner, “Since I’ve staked everything I have, I won’t regret it. But for you to call my 150,000 dollars, aren’t you afraid of losing? I advise you to back out now while I haven’t revealed my card.” The foreigner waved his hand and said, “Do you think it’s useful to intimidate me?” While saying that, he took two chips from in front of him and threw them on the table. “Go on. I don't believe your luck is still as good as the last hand!” Philip shook his head and said, “You're right, I had good luck in the last hand. The odds of having good luck two hands in a row are pretty small.” As Philip said that, he used two fingers to pick up his hole card. “However, I don’t know why, but my luck is really that good. Are you angry?” With that said, he tossed his ho

“You!” Yolanda’s eyes instantly popped wide open. She was a very strong-headed woman. This time, if not for the special circumstances, she would never have agreed to come over and gamble with Randolph. Moreover, Randolph took advantage of Yolanda’s unwillingness to admit defeat and eagerness to win, goading her into borrowing money to continue gambling. Before Yolanda could finish speaking, Philip waved his hand and interrupted her words. Philip smiled and said, “I agree to the raise.” Victor was surprised. Did Philip have the confidence to win? However, looking at the situation in front of him, a miracle could not happen twice. The chances of winning were too small! “Hahaha, Mr. Clarke, you’re such a decisive person!” the foreigner said as he pushed out another five million dollars in chips. Now, the foreigner had seven million dollars worth of chips out on the table. “Philip, what are you saying? How dare you use me as a bet?” Yolanda was anxious now. Although she

“Mr. Clarke, you’re too hasty.” The foreigner suddenly laughed and said, “You're too eager to win back the money the little b*tch has lost. The two million you have now, plus the five million you raised, makes it a total of seven million dollars. Do you want to make a comeback? I won’t give you that chance. I’m folding this hand.” After saying that, he pushed his chips to Philip and turned over his hole card—seven of hearts. The audience was surprised and murmured. Philip ignored the foreigner's words and silently turned over his hole card as well. It was an ace of spades! Instantly, the private room fell into a dead silence! Philip’s cards were the ace of spades, nine of hearts, seven of diamonds, four of spades, and three of spades. The foreigner's cards were the seven of hearts, king of spades, ten of hearts, seven of clubs, and two of spades. Philip had a loose hand while the foreigner had a pair! However, the foreigner folded his cards and admitted defeat, losi

As the foreigner said that, he pushed over five million dollars in chips. Philip frowned and said dubiously, “Your card is smaller than mine but you’re raising five million at once. Is it your turn to trick me this time?” The foreigner glared at Philip and said, “You don’t know if I’m tricking you, but I know for sure that you won’t dare to call.” “Are you trying to agitate me into calling?” Philip smiled faintly. “Fine, as you wish!” With that, he pushed over five million dollars in chips as well. The foreigner was stunned, but he gave a faint sneer afterward. “Very well, you’re very gutsy.” The third card was the jack of clubs for Philip and the queen of hearts for the foreigner. “Sorry, I already have a pair of queens. It seems like lady luck is not on your side this round!” The foreigner laughed and said, “Seven million dollars!” Philip smiled faintly and said, “Call.” On the fourth card, Philip got ten of spades and the foreigner got five of clubs. Philip thoug

The foreigner clenched his fists until they creaked and sneered, “I admit that I underestimated you at first, but now it seems that nine million dollars is worth paying for that lucky hand of yours. How about it? Do you dare to call?” “Call!” Philip said with certainty and without any doubt. The room went into an uproar again! Victor’s face was very ugly. Looking at the foreigner's expression, it seemed that he was determined to win. Although he did not know what card Philip had, what if he lost? Thinking about it, Victor had made up his mind. Anyway, this was his turf. If Randolph and his men really wanted to hurt Philip, even if Victor was branded as someone who did not follow the rules, he would not let them touch a hair on Philip’s head! As for the person of distinguished status behind Randolph… He could only deal with that in the future! At this time, the foreigner was grinning so broadly that he could not keep his mouth closed. He laughed while shaking his hea
The First Heir Chapter 1529
The atmosphere in the room instantly exploded! Oddly enough, everyone shouted in unison, “Young Master Clarke! Young Master Clarke!” Philip laughed aloud. This was exhilarating! This was a true card game! Exciting! Following the habit of a certain movie character, Philip asked Victor, “Any chocolate?” “I’ll get it! I’ll get some!” Victor went crazy with joy! Young Master Clarke was truly amazing! He had nothing else to say! He conceded! Yolanda was surprised and happy. She covered her mouth with both hands, her face full of incredulity! Due to the big movement, Philip’s jacket slipped from her shoulders and her undergarment was exposed. Yolanda blushed and quickly pulled the clothes around her body before anyone noticed. “This… What’s going on? Pete?” Randolph stared at the foreigner with wide eyes. The foreigner named Pete was completely dumbfounded now, his brain in a complete mess. Hearing the boss calling out his name, he quickly regained his consciousne

Philip called out to Victor and the rest, saying, “Everyone, things should be settled now. Since Mr. Randolph Harrison will surely abide by the rules, he won’t make things difficult for Miss Lee anymore, right?” Philip looked at Randolph after saying that. Randolph’s face was already red with anger! He snorted angrily and said, “Of course. It's not your place to tell me what to do!” Philip nodded. “That’s good to hear. Everyone, let’s continue to have fun.” Then, he walked out with the rest. At this moment, Pete, the foreigner, suddenly rushed over and grabbed Philip's shoulder! “What are you doing?” Victor yelled. Pete's eyes were cold as he said bitterly, “It's not over yet! You can't leave. Let's play another round.” Philip asked, “Why should I? I’ve already won back all the money owed by Miss Lee. There’s no need to continue, right?” “No way!” Pete's eyes were now bloodshot like he was a wild beast in a frenzy! He was a gambling master! He had never met his
The First Heir Chapter 1531
“How... How did you know?” Pete’s face was pale. In a casino, it was the most taboo to cheat. However, the level of gambling skills was also equivalent to the level of cheating skills. If one cheated and was not caught or spotted by others, the person could be considered a true master. For a cheater, being caught meant losing a hand. Otherwise, they would be a true master! The foreigner’s cheating technique was actually not too bad, but it did not escape the eyes of Philip, who had been playing with top local gambling masters since childhood. Truth be told, such games were just a simple form of entertainment for magnates like the Clarke family! The Clarke family’s charity gambling gala! All the top domestic and international gambling masters would be invited to this event where everyone would use the money they won for charity. Since Philip was ten, he had mastered his skills in poker, dice, and pai gow, making him at the top of the country. If he wanted to win agai

“I think she’s right. You have no right to despise her for being ugly! If you have the ability to cure the groom’s disease, you can marry into a wealthy family too! You’re a loser for putting her down because of her looks!” Ronan’s sudden interruption surprised the bride. She never thought that someone would speak up for her in this situation. “Enough with this fiasco. Hurry up and end it!” Lazlo frowned and glanced at the people next to him. He had replaced the useless guards earlier. These people were carefully selected experts. The experts quickly flagged Ronan as a troublemaker and wanted to throw him out. “Let’s call off the wedding for the time being. We didn’t think it through carefully. We’ll decide after careful consideration. Please excuse us,” Lazlo said calmly but he was fuming inside. He knew that this was a disgrace to the family. He had never thought a woman could play him out like that. Lazlo glared daggers at Celeste in front of him. 'I wouldn’t have be

By right, everyone should respect Lazlo, but these people simply wanted to humiliate him instead. Lazlo always took advantage of them during their business dealings, so they wanted to teach him a lesson. For the sake of his dignity, Lazlo could not lose his temper either. “Hehe, the bride is coming!” Lazlo gritted his teeth and asked someone to bring the bride out. Everyone looked around eagerly, waiting to see what this legendary woman looked like. The bride wore a veil on her face, and no one could see her appearance clearly. “The bride is bound by the rules of her race, so she’s not allowed to show her face in public, but you can tell from her figure that she's indeed very beautiful. My daughter-in-law is not to be underestimated!” Lazlo laughed. It was the only option he could think of. Some nosy people created a gust of wind that blew the veil away. Very soon, the woman’s ugly face was revealed to the public. Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene. They gulped nervous
The First Heir Chapter 6229
“But she’d be very attractive if she covered her face.” Her figure was very good, but her face was scary. Anyone who saw that face would probably be haunted by nightmares. Philip was curious. The woman could cure the groom’s disease, which proved that she had that ability. In that case, why was she in such a hurry to marry? With an ability like that, she could easily survive on her own. “She caught me red-handed peeking at her. Although it was embarrassing, she was very gentle and didn’t say anything. It’s a pity that I can’t deal with that appearance!” Ronan said awkwardly, ashamed at the thought of being caught red-handed. Philip rolled his eyes helplessly. He was no longer in the mood to watch the fun. Staying there was just a waste of time. He would rather leave. He was not interested in the free meal. Suddenly, they smelled a strange fragrance. Ronan frowned and rubbed his nose. The smell made him feel uncomfortable. “Someone is poisoning us,” Philip said calmly.

Lazlo knew that he would be doomed if he fell into Philip's hands. He decided to run away in a panic, but it did not mean he was going to give up. Celeste was his only hope to regain his dignity, and he would never let her off. “Keep a close eye on the situation. It’s best if you can knock Celeste out and bring her to me,” Lazlo ordered his men before he left. Since his men could not do it openly, they had to resort to some underhanded tricks. Lazlo had more than a team of guards under his command. Although the captain of the guards was no match for Philip, it did not mean that Lazlo was out of options. He had to solve this problem at all costs. Philip had no choice but to take Celeste away. Who knew they would encounter such a mess? “I never knew I was so charming that the guy wants me to marry his son,” Celeste said ironically. To think that something like this would happen to her. The people of her race were so valuable that they could not marry just anyone, let alone
The First Heir Chapter 6227
The guards laughed. “No way, does he think he can handle us?” Everyone mocked Philip and did not take him seriously. So what if Philip had powerful abilities? They could easily overwhelm him with numbers. Everyone laughed as they surrounded Philip, and Lazlo smiled smugly. He rarely took action in such things. He simply watched the fun to appease his anger. “Just accept your fate. An ordinary man like you can't possibly fight us,” Lazlo taunted Philip, confident that he had nowhere to escape. When Lazlo was about to capture Celeste, he saw someone flying out. He thought his men had taken action and was surprised by their newfound power. Before he could do anything, he heard wails of agony. “Ouch, it hurts!” “This is too much. You broke my leg!” “Why is this man so powerful? He can fight us all by himself!” When Lazlo heard the screams clearly, he scowled darkly. “What's going on? Are my guards defeated?” he said in horror. Lazlo looked over and saw his guards ly

“It’s your honor that our family has taken a fancy to you. Stop resisting. Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? You must be trying to gain more benefits. As long as you agree to this marriage, I promise that you’ll lead a good life, much better than what you have now!” Lazlo looked at Celeste condescendingly, seeing her as a gold digger. “You’re sick.” Celeste was dumbfounded. Celeste pulled Philip and wanted to leave, but Lazlo had no intention of letting them go. He had finally found a beautiful woman to solve the problem for him. How could he let her go? He had looked around earlier but had not seen anyone as beautiful as Celeste. It would be a privilege to bring a beautiful woman like Celeste out. If Celeste was willing to cooperate, he could hold his head high in front of many people. Thinking of this, he summoned the family's guards. “Hurry up and capture them. Even if you refuse, you have to do it!” Lazlo laughed at this point. “Young lady, you'd better li

Philip winked at Ronan, signaling him to wait while he went in with Celeste to see what was going on. “In that case, my brother and I will see what’s going on,” Celeste said with a sigh. She just wanted to watch the fun. Why was she involved all of a sudden? Philip and Celeste walked in, and Lazlo was surprised to see someone else. However, a look of realization crossed his face after his servant introduced Philip’s identity. “Yes, I was too hasty about this. We should discuss this matter with the family.” He quickly invited everyone inside. After taking a closer look at Celeste's appearance, he nodded with satisfaction. Sure enough, this woman was very beautiful and perfect from every angle. She was the best choice for his son. To be frank, even Lazlo was attracted to her. “My son is getting married today, but his bride is very ugly, so I want to use you in place of the bride. After this, you can become my son's concubine,” Lazlo said condescendingly as if Celeste should
The First Heir Chapter 6224
At this moment, Celeste looked no different from normal people, and her face was more stunning, capturing everyone’s attention with one glance. Lazlo was excited to see her and knew that she was the woman he had been looking for. Indeed, the bride was very ugly and had a strange appearance. He would never have agreed to the marriage if the woman had not saved his son's life. His son had been seriously ill and bedridden for a long time, almost on the verge of dying. To save his son, he promised that anyone who could save his son could make a request. This woman saved his son and requested to marry into the Cohen family. Although reluctant, big families attached great importance to promises. If they went against their conscience and broke the promise, it would greatly impact their subsequent practice. Hence, Lazlo had no choice but to agree to their marriage. However, to prevent people from talking behind their backs, he appointed some dedicated maids to take care of the ugly

Ronan grabbed the others in fright so that they could stay together. Ronan was a strong guy, after all. With his protection, the others would not be separated by the crowd. Philip looked at this scene and asked the onlookers curiously, “What’s going on? What’s the occasion? Is it a celebration?” Philip had a smile on his face. He thought the atmosphere was quite interesting as if someone was having a celebration. “Don’t you know? It’s the wedding day of the young heir of the Cohen family. I heard that they’ll be serving free spiritual beast meat during the feast. Whether it’s true or not, we want to join the fun. It’s great if the news is true.” “Young man, you must be a visitor from out of town. You’re in luck!” Everyone smiled and walked along excitedly, hoping to spread happiness. Since it was a happy occasion, Philip took the others to join in the fun. As expected, it was very crowded, and everyone sat happily while waiting for the feast to begin. They looked at a lux
