The First Heir Chapter 1763
In Homer Dunley’s villa in Charbury. At this moment, Homer was in the living room, sitting on a luxurious leather sofa while sipping on warm tea. Next to him, his son Hector was venting angrily, saying, “Dad, that damned Philip Clarke even tried to stop me in Uppercreek. Hehe, I must get him back for this!” Homer glanced at his son and said unhappily, “That’s enough! Do you have any idea how much trouble you’ve caused? He has already contacted me just now!” Hector was taken aback before saying in an unperturbed manner, “He contacted you? Did he ask to settle it privately or something? I just injured a female nanny. It was just one knock and she passed out. It’s her fault for not being physically fit enough to resist a beating. Besides, there’s nothing remarkable about Philip. He just knows a guy by the name of Heath, who happens to be a subordinate of Victor Bell in Uppercreek. Even if Victor personally came to Charbury, there’s nothing to fear! This is the territory of the Dun

“Homer Pharmaceutical, return my hard-earned money! You bunch of cheaters!” “Homer Pharmaceutical has victimized old helpless people like us. They say we can live up to 99 years old if we use their health care products. But now, several of my friends have been hospitalized after taking their products!” “The chairman of Homer Pharmaceutical, Homer Dunley, once promised us that we can get dividends if we buy their health care products—like buying shares. Now that we’re here for the dividends, they’re giving us all kinds of reasons and excuses. They even got hooligans from the streets to drive us away. Sometimes, those people even lay a hand on old men and women like us!” Hundreds of elderly people appeared on the camera. They were standing in the cold wind, frantically condemning Homer Pharmaceutical. Seeing this scene, Homer could not help but smash the remote control in his hand. Then, he picked up the phone, dialed the number of the general manager of the local news channel, a

The instant he heard this name, Homer was stunned! Philip Clarke? How could it be? That man only had some influence in Uppercreek. How could it reach Charbury? Moreover, Homer Pharmaceutical was one of the top companies here with many supporters behind it. By doing this, it was tantamount to challenging Homer’s patience and prestige, as well as challenging the company’s backers! “Neal, don't you f*cking bullsh*t me right now! How could Philip’s hand reach Charbury?” Homer’s face grew colder with deep resentment in his gaze. To his surprise, Neal grinned and said, “Mr. Dunley, I'm afraid you don’t understand. Your four units of dividends are nothing compared to the benefits they promised me. Besides, it’s also difficult to determine how long Mr. Clarke’s hands can reach. I can only give you a word of advice—don’t be too pretentious and look down on others. This Mr. Clarke is likely to be the jinx in your life.” Hearing this, Homer was very upset. However, he could not be

“Damn it! How dare Neal Pearce pull another trick on me at this point?! Once I regain my foothold, I'll make sure his life is worse than death!” Homer cursed. On the side, Hector could not help but say at this moment, “Dad, that Neal Pearce is nothing but a cunning fox. I never had a good impression of him before. But he has so much evidence against us in his hands, what should we do? Why don’t we expose him first? That way, that old fogey won’t have the chance to deal with us.” Homer pondered before saying, “Nonsense! What a lousy idea! Even though he’s done this to us, we can’t retaliate this way! You have to remember that Neal Pearce is not the only one who has a partnership with our family. If we expose him at this time, what will our other partners think?” Homer was still rational and knew that this absolutely must not happen. Otherwise, not only would he lose Homer Pharmaceutical but he and his son would also be ruined! “Then what should we do now? If this and that won'

Hearing this, Neal immediately said with indignation, “Mr. Dunley, as you know, we’re talking about 30 million dollars right now. If you want me to take the money without doing anything, won’t that be wrong of me?” Milo sneered and said, “You can still do what you need to do, but I’m just saying that you can delay the timing a little. You can broadcast the incident about Homer Pharmaceutical three days later. Now, tell those reporters of yours to withdraw. It’s not like the party behind you wants you to bring down Homer Pharmaceutical tonight, right?” Neal was taken aback, and his eyes darted about. What Milo said made sense. It was certainly possible. If he did things this way, he would not offend the Dunleys nor Philip. This was the best of both worlds. After thinking about it, Neal's heart began to waver. When he was hesitating, Milo spoke again, “Neal, since you’re in Flower City, you should understand what kind of place Charbury is. Here, the Dunley family is king. If yo

Seeing the frown on his father’s face, Hector smiled and said, “Dad, what are you thinking about? Stop worrying. Hasn't the matter been resolved for now? We have three days. Besides, with Seventh Uncle around, who dares to do anything to our family?” “Fool! Don't you understand by now?” Homer glared at Hector angrily and shouted, “30 million dollars! Can you take out 30 million dollars to squander just like that? Moreover, the other party bought off Neal Pearce in just a few minutes. What kind of strength and means does it take to act so quickly within the boundaries of Flower City in Charbury?” Hearing this, Hector was also taken aback. Yes, it was 30 million dollars. If he spent all that money just like that, he would be heartbroken. Moreover, the other party directly bought Neal off within ten minutes after talking to his father. It could be seen that his strength was not to be underestimated. Hector thought about it and said with a snigger, “Dad, maybe he just knows Neal?

Hector shook his head and said, “I didn’t find out anything. The four enforcers of the Nonagon this time are different from those before. They’re keeping information on the direct access spot under a tight lid. Many families ran around asking about it but no one got any definite news. However, I have a friend who heard from the grapevine that the direct access spot this time has already been taken.” Hearing this, Homer asked in surprise, “It’s been taken? Have you found out who it is? What price did the other party pay?” Hector still shook his head and said, “Since this is a rumor, how can I find out? As for the price, it hasn’t been revealed yet but it’s at least ten billion dollars.” “Ten billion?” Homer’s face darkened as he exclaimed. Ten billion was not a small amount! Even Homer Pharmaceutical was only worth over a billion dollars. If he put together all his family assets, it would only total to about two or three billion dollars. It was far from enough. It seemed t

Was this a joke? 50 million dollars? His company’s market value was only over a billion. 50 million dollars was equivalent to cutting one of his arms off! If they accepted all the refund requests, what would they do tomorrow? Continue to process refund requests? In that case, his company would go bankrupt immediately! Homer finally realized the severity of this problem and quickly asked, “What the hell is going on? Why are so many people coming to ask for refunds? Is there a problem with our product? Isn't it just an ordinary tranquilizer?” Homer Pharmaceutical was in the business of health care products. Their medicine was neither good nor bad, it was just a normal tranquilizer. It would indeed have some effect on the elderly, but they would not live to 99 years old. Besides, these lonely old people were easy to cheat. As long as their salespeople said some flattering words and visited them a few times, the deal was done. Moreover, they had rebate contracts. Many el
