The First Heir Chapter 1590
There was 50 million dollars in each case! Seeing this, the hearts of Martin and the others dropped to rock bottom! Philip actually got his hands on 1.6 billion dollars? In such a short time too! This was terrifying! What kind of strength would it take to do all this? Martin was flustered and extremely scared. What kind of monster was he fighting against? With such strength, why was Philip still in the Johnston family where he had to suffer from the contempt of others? “Did you prepare all this?” Martin was still a little suspicious. However, right after that, a middle-aged man in a gray suit quickly ran in from the door. He stood respectfully in front of Philip, bent over, and said with his head lowered, “Young Master Clarke, thank you for using Swiss Bank. Here’s 1.6 billion dollars in cash. This is your black card. Please check it.” Swoosh! Everyone was shocked when they heard the Swiss Bank being mentioned. At this moment, seeing the middle-aged man respec

This damned Philip dared to threaten them like this! Abominable! How hateful! After Philip left, Bernard breathed a sigh of relief and asked his second brother, “Martin, what should we do now? We’ve really landed ourselves in trouble. I don’t think Philip will let it go. Who would have thought that he actually has a black card from the Swiss Bank? This is simply unbelievable!” Bernard was very uneasy. How could they deal with Philip, a person who owned a black card from the Swiss Bank? It was impossible! Such a person could make all of them bankrupt and homeless just by lifting his finger. Martin’s face was very unpleasant. Standing with his hands behind his back, there was a mess of emotions on his face. Several members of the board also looked worried and sorrowful at this moment. They looked at Martin and asked, “Mr. Johnston, what should we do now? We’re stuck in a rut with you now.” “That's right, Mr. Johnston. We withdrew our capital from Beacon after listening
The First Heir Chapter 1592
Early the next morning, Martin and Bernard brought everyone to Beacon Group’s conference room. The atmosphere in the entire conference room was somber and tense. Everyone seemed to be deep in thought. Last night, most of them had received solicitations from two different parties, either at home or at the clubhouse. Today's shareholders meeting was crucial. Martin settled into the chairman's seat while Bernard sat next to him. He coughed lightly, signaling everyone to be quiet. He then spoke directly, “Today's shareholders meeting is very simple. I, Martin Johnston, will also be very straightforward and won’t beat around the bush. Today, I’ll resign from all positions in Beacon and will no longer serve as chairman of the board.” As soon as he said that, discussions broke out in the conference room. Martin’s time in power was short and no one expected him to resign so soon. Everyone had different opinions on this. Next, Martin continued, “However, please rest assured

Philip’s sudden appearance caused everyone in the meeting room to be at a loss for words. They felt unsettled! One of them stood up abruptly, pointed at Philip, and sternly said, “Who are you? Who let you in? Don’t you know where this is? Security, kick them out!” This person was a newcomer and Martin had just promoted him, so he naturally did not know who Philip was. Philip turned his head and glanced at the guy. With a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, he said, “Take him down.” Swoosh! Two black-suited thugs behind him stepped forward and pinned that man to the floor! Instantly, the man howled, “Mutiny! Who the hell are you? This is Beacon’s conference room. How dare you act so boldly?! Security, where's the security?” Bam! As a result, Philip walked over and kicked the man's chest violently, sending him flying. He hit the seat heavily before falling to the ground. The man clutched his chest with a wail and could not get up for a while. With Philip’s kick,

Swish! Instantly, more than a dozen thugs rushed over and directly pressed all those who just voiced out to the floor! In a flash, the conference room was in chaos! More than a dozen people who stood on Martin’s side were harshly pinned to the floor by Theo’s men! They howled in anger, “Damn it! Who are you to do this to us? We’re the shareholders of Beacon! Even if Wynn were here, she wouldn't dare to do this to us!” “Let go of us or we’ll go to the Riverdale Chamber of Commerce and sue you!” “Philip Clarke, you’re too arrogant. This is Beacon, not your house! What right do you have to preside over this shareholders meeting?” Even though they were pinned to the floor, they were still very indignant and cursed at Philip. However, Philip still remained indifferent. He raised his eyebrows and looked at those people who were sitting in their seats in silence, saying, “If you want to end up like them, feel free to try.” As soon as he said that, dozens of thugs in black su

Hiss! Everyone gasped! All gazes fell on Philip. This guy was really too high-handed! Martin turned around, his face looking unpleasant as he stared at Philip. He said sullenly, “What are you doing?” Philip chuckled, stood with his hands behind his back, and stared at Martin with scorching eyes. He said, “Like you, I'm poaching talents. No matter how much you offer and how many promises you make, I’ll triple all offers. And it’s all in cash!” With that said, Philip looked at those people behind Martin who looked skeptical yet eager. “I think everyone is here for the money and no one will refuse the money that’s right in front of them, right?” “What’s your basis for saying that? How much money can you possibly have? You’re just a kept husband who relies on his wife!” “That’s right. Your reputation in Riverdale is not that good. How can we believe your words? Don’t try to bluff us.” “Hehe, if you have the ability, why don’t you show us what you have?” Everyone started
The First Heir Chapter 1596
Martin finally came to a realization. How could Philip be a loser? He was clearly a lion, a sleeping lion! However, he could not figure out one thing. If Philip was so powerful, why did he hide his true strength until now? Was it related to Madam Wallis of Cirrus Villa? However, Martin could not be bothered to think about it now. Instead, he turned around, looked at the group of people behind him, and said, “I won’t force you. I definitely won’t treat you badly if you choose to come with me.” After saying that, Martin turned around and looked at Philip resentfully, saying, “Just you wait!” Then, he left the conference room. Among them, seven or eight people chose to follow Martin. Naturally, that included several board members from last night. They had no other choice. The others had offended Philip and knew they would have no future in Beacon. The room became quiet at this moment. Only then did the rest of the people look at Philip with flattering smiles while sayi

”Notify all the media in the city and announce the secret about Wynn.” When Bernard heard this, he was still a little worried and asked, “Martin, if we really do this, there’ll be no turning back. At that time, Charles will no longer tolerate us and that’ll be the end of our kinship. Moreover, we’ve promised our big brother and sister-in-law that we’ll never disclose Wynn’s secret to the outside world. If this is revealed, not only Wynn but also Charles and Martha will be criticized.” Martin’s face appeared dark as he looked at Bernard with raised eyebrows, saying, “Bernard, do you think we have another way out now? Since Philip is forcing us like this, why should we care about family affection? It’s every man for himself!” Martin did not want to reveal the secret that had been buried for more than 20 years either. However, at this point, he had no other choice. If Philip had been willing to give in, he would not have resorted to this! Bernard thought about it and said, “Mart
