The First Heir Chapter 2230
This was his trump card, but now that his confidants were killed, it also meant that his connection with the 10,000 guards outside was severed! In that case, what else could he use to blackmail the main Clarke family and force their hand? Had Philip predicted this long ago? Was there a traitor among his people? Philip chuckled as his eyes swept over Lex Clarke standing among the branch family members. Lex was impassive as he stood among the crowd. He was a spectator from the beginning to the end. This was what Lex had to prove himself. Philip accepted it. Then, Philip walked up to Wade who was furious but flustered. He said coldly, “Wade, now that you’ve lost your greatest support, what do you think I’ll do to you?” Although Wade was very angry at the moment, he soon calmed down and said with a sneer, “Philip boy, do you think that I’d be afraid of you just because you killed a few confidants of mine? Today, the main family must give a statement to the branch family.

A blood petition! This was a serious matter! The four elders of the law enforcement hall jointly filed a petition written in blood, and this was done during the ancestor commemoration ceremony. It was enough to show the determination of the branch family this time. Thump! The four elders of the law enforcement hall from the branch family knelt in front of the ancestral hall at this moment. They held the blood petition in their hands above their heads and announced aloud, “The four elders of the branch family jointly present a blood petition requesting the patriarch to punish Philip according to the family rules! Revoke his status as the heir and convict the sinned blood of the Lovelace family to wipe them out!” With this announcement, the four elders of the branch family prostrated on the floor and did not get up for a long time. In everyone’s sight, the blood petition was so eye-catching and alarming. Wade lay on the floor with a sneer on his face. He looked at Philip an

The Black Gold Rose generally never appeared in Clarke Manor because it was an external battle cavalry. With great military exploits all over the world, they were an invincible existence! Their presence was a signal. There would be a massacre! For the Black Gold Rose to appear in the Clarkes’ ancestral hall, it posed a bad foreboding. Morrow even thought of retreating. Black Gold Rose escorted Philip, Wynn, Mila, and Nelson in the incubator to stand in the hall. Wynn wanted to struggle. She could not figure out why her father-in-law was doing this. Was he really going to carry out the so-called trial and punishment upon her and Philip? Thus, Wynn immediately shouted, “Father-in-law, it has nothing to do with Philip. It’s my fault that this is all happening. I'm willing to bear all the consequences.” Philip glanced sideways at Wynn, whose face was full of tears. She was still thinking on his behalf until now. With a gentle smile, Philip whispered to Wynn, “Wynnie, it's

Faced with the grand elder’s inquiry, Morrow bowed his head and said, “Grand Elder, there’s still Wynn Johnston, the descendant of the sinned blood, and the two sinful children. They’re the enemies of the Clarke family and the entire world. They shouldn't live in this world. I also request to kill them per the family rules!” As soon as he said that, the entire small square was filled with chills and a murderous aura! This did not come from Roger or the grand elder. Instead, it radiated from Philip! With a face like a demon god and a voice like the roar of a dragon, he said angrily to Morrow, “Morrow Clarke, don’t take a mile when you’re given an inch!” Morrow knelt on the floor and said, “No, I’m not. I'm thinking of the Clarke family. If these descendants of the sinned blood are not put to death, I and all members of the branch family are willing to kneel in this ancestral hall forever!” “You’re courting death!” Philip shouted angrily and immediately pulled out the golde

Morrow trembled all over as he knelt there, bowing and shouting, “I have a clear conscience. Everything is for the sake of the Clarke family!” “For the Clarke family? Is that your reason? For the sake of the Clarke family, you’re forcing my hand! You forced me to strip the heir of his position and now, you’re forcing me to punish my daughter-in-law and two grandchildren with my hands. Does the branch family think doing these is for the sake of the Clarke family?” Roger shouted angrily, and the muffled thunder in the sky exploded. This sound was amplified infinitely and resounded through the sky! Morrow and other members of the branch family suddenly panicked. Roger’s prestige was too strong. “Patriarch, I only have the Clarke family in mind. I hope you can severely punish—” Morrow continued to shout. However, before he could finish his words, Roger waved his hand and shouted, “If you dare to speak another word, beware of getting killed!” Boom! A blast of thunder fell

50 percent chance of success was Morrow’s biggest estimation. Even if the 10,000 guards from the branch family were not strong enough, they were enough to flood the entire Clarke Manor. Morrow had planned this long ago. Without Roger’s mobilization, the Dragon Knights would never be deployed. It would be difficult to win just relying on the Black Gold Rose alone. Roger looked at Morrow coldly exhaled lightly, and said, “Morrow, I'll give your branch family one last chance to stop.” Hearing that, Morrow chuckled and said, “Patriarch, I don’t know what it means to stop. I’m only thinking for the sake of the Clarke family. Philip doesn’t deserve to be the heir of the Clarke family, while Wynn and the kids are offspring of the sinned blood. If this spreads out, the Clarke family will become the enemy of the whole world. We’ll be doomed! To prevent this from happening, I hope you can destroy the enemy by the roots!” “Well said! Are you asking me to kill my granddaughter and gran

All the branch family members who knelt in the rain felt the cold blades on their necks and wailed. Many people started to bow and shout. “Patriarch, I’m not involved in this. I just… Forgive me!” “Patriarch, don't kill us. We were wrong! Please forgive us!” For a while, many branch family members got up and were quickly brought to the side by the Black Gold Rose soldiers. In the middle of the ancestral hall, only a few remaining branch family members were still kneeling upright. They still exclaimed, “All for the Clarke family!” Seeing that the door of the ancestral hall was about to close, Morrow’s tears slipped from the corners of his eyes and mixed with the rainwater. Was everything over? Was this how it would end today? After such a long preparation, 10,000 guards of the branch family turned out to be no match for the Black Gold Rose cavalry under Roger Clarke! It turned out that Roger had been on guard against the branch family as early as ten years ago. H

Wynn looked at the secret file with red and wet eyes. She dared not believe it, nor did she want to believe it. However, many facts were right before her eyes. She stumbled toward Morrow and took the confidential file. Philip stood aside with dark eyes and shouted, “Wynnie…” He was about to walk to Wynn’s side when Roger said with mixed emotions behind him, “Phil, she should find out the truth about certain matters. Everything happened because of my mistake, and I should resolve it.” Philip turned to Roger in confusion and said, “What right do you have to resolve the case back then? She’s my woman, and I’ll protect her.” With that said, Philip walked in the rain, took a big black umbrella, and stood next to Wynn. He shielded her from the rain. Under the umbrella, Wynn's hands trembled as she held the wet confidential file. She burst into tears and slumped kneeling on the ground. This confidential file clearly recorded her birth. She was the surviving child of the Lo
