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

Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting

Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think

Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass

However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be

Cameron smiled awkwardly at everyone’s dissatisfaction. “That’s not the case. I'm still trying to figure out the situation. I thought I might make a mistake if I released the news in advance,” Cameron explained awkwardly. Although few people bought it, they put aside their prejudices. After all, they were not here to argue but to talk about it. If Cameron was driven into a corner and refused to tell them anything, they would be on the losing end, and no one wanted that outcome. “In that case, tell us what you know so that we can put our heads together. After all, there's strength in numbers. It’s better to do this together!” “I agree with the Lamy family's patriarch. Tell us your reservations so that we can figure it out!” Everyone made a din, clearly forcing Cameron to give in to their demands. Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Cameron finally decided to tell the truth. “What’s going on?” Before Cameron could tell them anything, Rabbit appeared. Rabbit hopped

At this time, the Claude family’s butler found the residence's doorstep surrounded by people. The butler was horrified and quickly found the patriarch. “Oh no, something bad has happened!” The butler ran into the room in disbelief. The excited Cameron scowled at this sudden intrusion. “What’s bad? Watch your words. Have you forgotten your manners? Don’t speak so loudly in this house!” Cameron had been lost in his excitement, but it was quickly replaced by anger. He wished he could fire the butler on the spot.The butler was scared and felt sorry for himself. “Patriarch! I wasn’t kidding. Something bad has happened!” “People from other families are at the door, including the heads of their families! They keep talking about some storage space and a rabbit, demanding an explanation from us. I don’t know what’s going on!” The butler felt aggrieved because he had no idea what happened. He only knew that a rabbit that could speak human language had turned up in the family. That ra

Philip had that precious tea on hand. Just one mouthful was enough to improve Cameron’s strength. He also had that incredible storage space. What was Philip’s background? How many mysterious treasures did he have? No one dared to think about it. Especially Cameron, who felt that he had found a treasure this time. At first, Cameron bore a grudge against Philip and felt that he had messed things up, but now, he saw Philip as his salvation.… Meanwhile, Sadie had no idea what had happened. Sadie’s husband was dealing with Philip’s issue with Cameron and did not have time to report the situation to his useless wife. She was still thinking about how to deal with Philip. “The rabbit’s storage space must be very valuable. If I spread the news about it, everyone will mess with that rabbit and save me the effort!” Thinking of this, Sadie thought she was very smart and was eager to put the plan into action. After thinking about it, Sadie contacted several families who were on go

“What are you guys doing here? Don’t you have anything better to do?” Rabbit asked bluntly. This arrogant rabbit was even more outspoken after staying with Aslan for so long. The Claude family felt offended. “My child, do you have a storage space? How did you get it? Can you tell me more?” Cameron ignored Rabbit but asked Ronan excitedly, eager to find out the situation. Ronan nodded calmly. “It’s just a storage space. Stop kicking up a fuss over it. My space is not very big, just enough to contain this house at most. It’s not a big deal,” he said pretentiously. Hearing that, Philip silently gave him a thumbs-up. He did not forget Ronan’s exaggerated expression when he first saw the size of the storage space. Surprisingly, Ronan got into the role so quickly. Philip thought he was a good actor. Ronan's casual remarks nearly caused everyone a mental breakdown. They were shocked as if they heard something incredible. “What? Is the space that big?” Cameron coughed violently.

“You can form a bond with the ring. Once that’s done, no one can take it away from you. It’ll belong to you forever.” Philip’s explanation reassured Ronan, and he finally accepted the gift from Philip with confidence. Although Ronan was strong, he was not arrogant to the point of being ignorant. If someone could take it from him, he would rather not have it. Although it was gratifying to own one, it would be painful to lose it after having it. With Philip’s affirmation, Ronan fidgeted with the ring happily and wanted to express his gratitude. Philip simply waved his hand without dwelling on it. “That’s enough. Go explore the storage space on your own. I believe it’ll help you greatly. “Since they’re so interested in Rabbit's storage space, you should show it off to them. I believe they’ll immediately hold you in high regard and maybe they’ll deal with those arrogant guys in the family.” Philip was excited at this mean trick and laughed when he thought of those people’s ugly
