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

A young man about the same age as him was so talented. Could anyone not be jealous? However, Louis was truly not jealous. He just wanted to learn from Philip. If Philip was really that strong, he would obey. Although Louis had a high status in the guild, he was not highly valued. That useless loser was given priority when it came to most of the resources, which made Louis upset. By right, resources should be allocated to talented people, but things were different because Hogster had a guild leader for a father. Thinking of this, Louis smiled at Philip expectantly. If Philip was worth following, he would leave the Hexa Guild without hesitation. “I want to apologize for offending you earlier. I also want to follow you, but I don’t know if I’m good enough. If you won’t consider me, I hope you can give my son a chance. He’s pretty talented.” Dennis was very polite as he apologized to Philip. Philip was surprised and thought that Dennis was quite nice. Philip invited them insi

Dennis and Louis quickly arrived at the door and knocked nervously. Rabbit opened the door this time. He did not expect to see Dennis again. He thought Dennis was here to cause trouble, so he scowled. “Why are you here again, old man? Do you want to cause more trouble for us? You’d better think twice or I’m going to get angry!” Rabbit said fiercely. Rabbit easily crushed them earlier, so they would not forget about their miserable defeat so quickly. Louis was embarrassed to hear that this rabbit had defeated his father. He had always thought that Dennis was very powerful and would not lose to a younger person no matter what. Unexpectedly, Dennis was not only defeated but lost miserably too. Louis keenly perceived that this talking rabbit was Philip’s pet and became excited. If Philip's pet was so powerful, Philip should be better. Thinking of this, he was excited and wanted to see Philip immediately. Rabbit stared at Dennis and Louis, wondering what they were up to.

Celeste was surprised to see that Esther had restored her appearance. She had just seen Esther wearing a veil to cover her ugly face when they first met earlier. “Amazing! You look beautiful all of a sudden,” Celeste praised Esther from the bottom of her heart. Celeste did not know how it happened, but there had to be a reason for it. Esther smiled at Celeste. “Now that I’m beautiful, I can fully focus on taking care of Philip. Don’t worry, I won’t be worse than you.” Hearing that, Celeste was puzzled by Esther’s aggression. While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, an uninvited guest turned up at the door. It was none other than Dennis of the Hexa Guild. Dennis was not alone as he had brought his son along with him. His son was quite talented and always listened to his father's opinions. After all, he knew that he would not be where he was without his father’s guidance, and most of his father’s decisions were correct. “Father, are you sure we should leave the guild
The First Heir Chapter 6278
Esther never thought that her curse could be lifted so quickly. More importantly, Esther found that all the negative energy in her body had disappeared. She took off her veil and looked at them with her true appearance. Esther was beautiful by nature, but the nasty technique had impacted her self-esteem. Now that she had regained her appearance, Esther’s confidence returned as well. “Wonderful! This technique is the perfect improved version! With this technique, our members can practice like any normal person without worrying about their appearance. Other guilds can’t kick a fuss over it or try to mess with us again!” Jamie was ecstatic and abruptly remembered a very important question. “By the way, what’s the deal with this technique? Did someone give it to you?” Jamie had to get to the bottom of it. It was very important. He would be uneasy if he did not figure out the situation. “Philip gave it to me. I don't know how he got our technique, but he’s quite good at studying
The First Heir Chapter 6277
Philip nodded. That was his intention too. It would be best if Carlos did all the work for him. After getting Philip's consent, Carlos rushed out excitedly. He took the booklet to Jamie. Esther and Jamie were discussing the plan of operation. “You have to catch hold of Philip. I finally got you here. Don't let us down. It’s best if you can trick Philip into joining our guild!” Jamie persuaded Esther, hoping she could trick Philip into joining the guild. Esther sighed helplessly. She knew what she should do, but Philip was clearly not buying it. She was not as pretty as Celeste, and she had this curse on her, so she could not hold her head high at all. At this time, Carlos rushed over in a panic. “Why are you in such a hurry? You’re already a father, but you’re still so impulsive—just like a child who never grows up!” Jamie sighed helplessly at Carlos’ behavior. Carlos was like a brother who grew up with him, and the two of them had always had a good relationship. Carlos w

Carlos thought Philip would do something to him, but Philip simply handed him something he took out of his pocket. “Try practicing this technique.” After Philip handed him the item, he stared at Carlos, waiting for the result. Carlos was relieved to hear it. He had thought Philip was going to do something to him, but it turned out that Philip simply wanted Carlos to try a technique out. Carlos smiled and shook his head. “We can’t practice other techniques different from our own unless someone can make improvements to our existing technique. Only then do we have the chance to learn something new. But do you know how difficult it is to improve a technique?” Carlos smiled helplessly. Their people had been trying to improve their technique forever. After all, the side effects of the technique were simply annoying, but it was easier said than done. Their predecessors had been studying it for years but to no avail. They had no choice but to give up. Now, only one elder was resp

“Since she’s one of your people, she can stay, but don’t try to do anything,” Philip said. Philip glanced at the holy maiden. Before he could say anything else, something appeared in his mind. It was the technique she practiced. Philip had no idea what happened. He had merely glanced at her when her technique appeared in his mind. Although it was weird, Philip did not think it was a bad thing. Instead, he was happy. He knew that it was a special ability. Thinking of this, Philip was in a good mood. He went back to his room after excusing himself. He wanted to study the technique carefully. It would be best if he could discover something. The holy maiden watched indignantly as Philip left. Jamie knew that Celeste’s biggest advantage was her looks. She was so beautiful that the holy maiden felt the pressure. “Stay here with peace of mind and treat it as your own home. No need for formalities,” Celeste said to them with a smile as if she were the mistress of the house. Jam

Philip waved his hand. That was not what he meant. At this time, Celeste walked out of her room. She had fallen in love with cooking and always immersed herself in the kitchen, figuring out different recipes. In the past, Celeste lived alone in the gloomy forest without freedom or friends. After meeting Philip, she became more vibrant. Celeste would feel a sense of achievement whenever Philip ate the food she cooked. Seeing her, Philip greeted Celeste and introduced the visitors to her. “I don’t need a maid. I already have someone to take care of the household chores. Thank you for your kindness,” Philip said with a smile. Celeste had been doing a good job, so Philip did not think he needed another woman to take care of him. The more women around, the more trouble there would be. The holy maiden froze in surprise at the sight of such a beautiful woman around Philip. Although she was not ugly, she had to live with this ugly appearance until her marriage because of that nas

“That’s enough. Stop talking about me. You might as well think about how to deal with Hogster and the others. The Hexa Guild will definitely come after you.” Philip greeted Jamie calmly without taking the incident seriously at all. Seeing his reaction, Jamie thought that Philip was more and more unfathomable. The Hexa Guild was making a big fuss over this case. Many guilds had accepted the Hexa Guild’s gifts and now stood in opposition to the Celestial Palace. Although this matter had nothing to do with those guilds at all, they accepted the Hexa Guild's gifts in exchange for hyping the news up. It would be best if the two guilds fought. Maybe they could take advantage of the situation in the process! The other major guilds were waiting to watch the excitement too. They hoped that the Celestial Palace would be affected by this incident and it would maybe result in them losing the guild competition. Philip was also quite interested in the guild competition but was more curious
