The First Heir Chapter 1691
Henley was flustered. The coal mine was seized? If he continued to stay here, would he not be seeking death? After thinking about it and dwelling on it for about ten minutes, Henley said smugly, “Hmph! Only a fool will stay here and wait with you. I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.” After that, Henley quickly dragged Clara with him to leave. If he did not leave now, everything would be exposed. However, Rowan signaled with his eyes, and the four burly bodyguards at the door grabbed Henley and Clara by their arms, shoving them back. Due to the force, Clara fell to the floor and her butt was in pain. She shouted, “Ouch, you guys must be f*cking blind! Henley, just look at them! They simply don’t respect you. Regardless of anything else, you’re still the young master of the Dill family in Uppercreek!” Henley also stumbled, shocked by the four burly figures blocking the doorway. He braced himself and bellowed, “Mr. Holmes, do you really want to do this? Are y

What? Alan Holmes’ younger brother? One of the three lords of Uppercreek? Henley panicked. His legs went limp as he stared incredulously at the bemused Rowan in front of him. Next to him, Clara also panicked at this moment. She did not expect Rowan to be the younger brother of Alan Holmes! She had heard that Alan Holmes was one of the three lords of Uppercreek! Goodness! She had actually offended such a character! She was doomed for sure this time. However, at this moment, she and Henley recalled a more terrifying fact—Rowan was very respectful to Philip before! Alan Holmes’ younger brother being so respectful to Philip was enough to illustrate a problem! It meant that Philip’s status was higher than Alan’s! After thinking about it carefully, Henley was afraid that his father’s claim about the mine being seized was true! Holy sh*t! At this moment, Henley and Clara realized what kind of existence they had provoked. Rowan coldly glanced at Bo, who had rushed

Upon walking closer, Philip saw that Wynn’s face was full of questions. He asked, “What’s wrong?” Wynn thought about it. Many words were stuck in her throat but in the end, she shook her head and said with a smile, “It’s nothing.” Philip smiled blandly and wanted to bring Wynn out of the shop. However, Bo and Henley were waiting respectfully at the door. They had no choice. If the coal mine continued to be sealed, the Dill family would be done for! Bo had to resolve this predicament. He angrily glared at Henley beside him and shouted, “Why are you still standing here? Get down on your knees and apologize to Mr. Clarke at once!” Henley was prepared to flee when his father’s voice suddenly sounded at his side, causing him to shudder with fright. Immediately after, he slowly turned around and looked at Philip, the fear in his eyes growing. At this point, he could only apologize and try to gain leniency. With a thud, Henley went down on his knees! He struggled to open h

“Really?!” Henley said excitedly. Would Philip really let him off so easily? He quickly asked again, “Philip… No, Mr. Clarke, are you really willing to let me off?” Philip nodded. “In that case, about our family’s coal mine…” Although Henley was happy that Philip was willing to let him off and could not wait to flee right this instant, if the matter with the coal mine was unresolved, he would still be dead after he returned home. As he said that, he also looked at his father who was standing respectfully on one side. He had never seen his father groveling like this before. “The closure of your family’s coal mine can be lifted. However, there are conditions.” Philip glanced at Clara when he said that. If this woman was not taught a lesson, she would not remember what had happened today. Although Henley had slapped Clara just now, in Philip’s opinion, it was still not enough. “What are the conditions? Just let me know. As long as I can do it, I’ll give you my promise! H

As Philip approached, Clara kept backing away. The fear in her eyes gradually grew. Goodness! What was going on? Was he still the wimp from the Johnston family who dared not make a sound? Philip said sharply, “Remember what I said. Since I’ve said it, I’ll do it. No one can touch my woman! Now, hurry up and get lost.” Clara also did not know what was going on. She was completely stunned by Philip’s intensity and dared not answer back. She could only leave pathetically while trembling all over. Joy stared at Philip blankly. Goodness, why did she suddenly feel that this guy was so cool?! The moment he flew into a rage to protect his woman was so sexy! After taking a closer look at Philip, although he was dressed plainly, if one took a careful look at his face hidden behind his bangs, one could see that Philip’s features were nicely shaped. His eyes and eyebrows were well-defined. He was quite good-looking. Moreover, her intuition told her that Philip was definitely not

Joy jumped in delight and quickly told the front counter where to deliver the goods. Due to the large purchase, combined with the fact that Rowan Holmes wanted to befriend Philip and leave Philip with a good impression of him, he ensured that everything bought today would be delivered right to their doorsteps. This was really fortunate. Otherwise, even though Philip practiced martial arts, he would not be able to handle two women and a shop’s worth of clothes. “Mr. Clarke, are you a member of the branch or main Clarke family?” While the two women were happily divvying up the clothes in front, Rowan poured Philip a cup of tea in the general manager’s office next door. Philip took a sip of tea and said, “This is good tea.” Then, he continued to drink. Rowan was a little embarrassed and wanted to continue asking when Philip spoke up. “Mr. Holmes.” Philip put the cup of tea in his hand on the table and said lightly, “You’re a good person and I’m willing to get to know you,

Sheryl put the coffee down in a dignified manner, raised her eyebrows, glanced at Philip, and asked with a gentle smile at the corner of her mouth, “Am I not welcome?” Philip shrugged and said, “You’re not unwelcome, but I can’t help feeling that you’re not a simple woman. Although I have some relations with you, I still think we should meet less.” Sheryl did not deny it and said frankly, “Your feeling is right. I’m not a woman who makes people feel secure. Born in such a family, I learned to be selfish since I was a child and became scheming. Many people who’ve met me say that I’m a femme fatale, but I don’t think so. I’m just a little lamb waiting to be slaughtered.” Hehe. Philip chuckled and said, “Comparing yourself to a poor little lamb, only you can say such things. I already knew what kind of person you are since I was a child. There’s no need to beat around the bush between us. Just tell me straight. I’ll decide depending on my mood.” According to the intelligence Phi

Philip frowned and replied, “No, I’m not going.” “Oh, don't you want to meet people from the Nonagon? Don't you want to find out if your mother's death is related to the Nonagon?” Sheryl smiled sweetly. Hearing this, Philip stood up abruptly. With eyes like a jackal, he stared at Sheryl fixedly and said, “What did you say? People from the Nonagon?” Sheryl nodded and said, “Nonagon is looking for people who can enter the door. Do you think those people from large families will miss this opportunity?” “Philip, many things can’t be solved just because you have the ability. You have to rely on connections and resources. This world is unfair. For example, the qualification selection for entering the door can be debated. The several enforcers of the Nonagon Uppercreek division happen to be a group of insatiable people. During tonight’s private gathering, the big families will be vying for the qualification to enter the door. If we measure it in terms of money, what do you think the s
