This declaration revealed Philip’s determination. He chose to prepare for a long struggle with that organization in the following days. According to Steven’s information, that organization was very pervasive with large and complex forces. He could not strike easily or it would cause unnecessary trouble. Steven smiled and said, “By the way, Young Patriarch Clarke, Lord Apollo, there’ll be a private party tonight. I wonder if you two are interested in attending.” Philip shook his head and refused. “I still have some personal matters to attend to, so I won't be going.” Fennel also refused. Steven smiled and said, “No, Young Patriarch Clarke, you must attend. Do you know what this private party is about?” Philip was at a loss and frowned. He looked at Steven and asked, “What do you mean?” Steven said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, don't you want to learn about the Lovelace family?” The Lovelace family? Philip’s eyes suddenly became solemn as he asked, “The party tonight, i
The First Heir Chapter 2556
Fennel nodded inwardly and said, “The Lovelace family seems to be quite powerful. To have such a large castle and invite so many people, it seems that they’re determined to get the position of the new god.” Steven stood next to the two and said, “The Lovelace family is quite influential in the West, and they do stand a chance for the god position. Especially Shane. He reached the realm of the gods long ago. According to the Smith family's intelligence, his chances of becoming the new god are on par with the Underground Bounty Society. He’s the most popular candidate right now.” Philip nodded inwardly. The Lovelace family had almost disappeared from the country, but unexpectedly, they were doing quite well in the West. “This way, please.” Steven made an inviting gesture. The three walked inside. Soon after, an uncanny laugh came from behind them. “Hehe, Steven, how dare you show up here?” The three of them looked back and saw Louis XXVI from Kester Manor walking toward
The First Heir Chapter 2557
Louis XXVI was startled by that slap. Next to him, Alice was also shocked. She covered her mouth, and her eyes popped wide open. “Louis, are you alright?” Alice still cared about Louis XXVI and quickly stepped forward. She held his arm and asked with concern. At the same time, she stared at Philip angrily and scolded, “Why did you hit Louis? Although he said something rude, you can't hit him like that! He’s the youngest duke in Country Y and my future husband!” After saying that, Alice stared at Steven with resentment in her eyes and said, “Steven, I had changed my mind about you at first and wanted to give you a chance. But seeing as how you’re hanging out with such a reckless and rowdy Easterner, I’m disappointed in you! You’re as mean and hateful as they are!” Alice reprimanded Steven, causing Steven's face to turn ugly and aggrieved. He did not expect Alice to act this way, which completely overturned the image he had of her as a sublime goddess in his mind. The cur

At this moment, Louis XXVI arrogantly pointed at Philip and roared. “Damn it, you must apologize to me in front of everyone! I’ll also break that hand of yours! That’s the price of your disrespect to me!” However, Philip stared indifferently at the furious Louis and said, “Duke Louis, in my opinion, you’re nothing more than an ordinary person. Your so-called dukedom poses no threat to me at all.” “What? How dare you look down on the Louis royal family?” Louis roared. Beside him, Alice also chided. Seeing this scene, Steven's heart was broken. Fennel gently patted Steven's shoulder and said, “Steven, you must understand that in Alice's eyes, you may not be worth a dime. Don’t cheapen your love. Since she looks down on you as a viscount, why do you still want to be her lapdog? There are plenty of good women in this world. You should learn to give up.” Steven glanced at Fennel before he looked at Alice, who had completely lost her poise as a princess and started spewing curses
The First Heir Chapter 2559
Philip, Fennel, and Steven gave the high and mighty Louis XXVI a thorough beating! The youngest duke of Country Y had lost his entire noble image and fell to the ground wretchedly. He covered his head and shouted desperately. “Ow, f*ck, stop! I'm Duke Louis XXVI! Steven, you damned viscount! This is insubordination! You're finished! Your Smith family is finished!” Louis XXVI roared. “I must return and tell the Queen about this! I want the Queen to revoke the noble rights of your Smith family!” “Louis XXVI, you b*stard, how dare you threaten me? I’ll kick you to death!” Steven was furious. Once he started, he could not stop. He lifted his foot and kicked Louis XXVI, who was lying on the ground covering his head. He cursed, “Do you want to complain about me? Do you think the Smith family can be messed with?” In the face of Steven's ferocity, the onlookers erupted in discussions. “Oh my, what did I see?” “Steven is so scary. He even dares to beat Duke Louis?” “It’s ove

Steven smiled, nodded in response, and said, “I'd better call you Mr. Clarke.” Philip was not bothered. They stood at the entrance of the castle and watched the intoxicating pool party inside. Many prominent figures in the West were at the scene, mingling and chatting. Philip and the others also found a corner and sat down for the time being. A waiter walked over and served them wine. Philip looked at the frolicking crowd nearby, then asked Fennel and Steven in a low voice, “Is the private event tonight this pool party? Is the election of the gods such child’s play in the West?” Without waiting for Fennel to speak, Steven explained, “Mr. Clarke, you’ve misunderstood. This is just an appetizer before the private party. The main event will come later. What you see now is just the prelude. The real big shots are usually inside.” As Steven said that, he motioned with his eyes for Philip and Fennel to look at the second floor of the splendid castle. Philip looked up. Indeed,
The First Heir Chapter 2561
At this moment, Wynn and Shane appeared together, looking dazzling and noble under the spotlight. It was the first time that Philip saw such a noble and elegant side of Wynn. No, to be precise, Wynn in the past was very approachable. Even if she attended business events and dressed for the occasion, she would not look like this. That was because the current Wynn appeared to carry an unfamiliar sense of distance. Philip stood up abruptly, which startled Fennel and Steven beside him. Fennel took it in stride. He recognized Wynn, so when he saw Wynn and Shane walking out together, a chill flashed at the corner of his eyes. He asked, “Why is Wynn here?” Philip shook his head in bafflement, but it seemed that Wynn was here to attend this party. Steven smiled, got up, and said, “Mr. Clarke, this is the important person I said you may want to meet. According to my information, she’s your wife.” Steven did not yet understand the implications and only thought that Philip would b
The First Heir Chapter 2562
Wynn glanced coldly at Philip who was pinned to the ground, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. This man was very strange. For a brief moment just now, her heart actually ached. What was wrong with her? She did not know the man in front of her at all, so why would her heart suddenly ache when she saw him being pinned to the ground? Shane smiled and said, “Okay.” Then, he stared coldly at Philip, who was pinned to the ground. He said with a sneer, “Guards, throw him out.” With that command, the bodyguards dragged Philip up and out through the back door. Philip stared at Wynn who turned to leave. He could not believe that Wynn could not recognize him even though he was right in front of her. They had only been separated for half a month! How could this happen? Why would this happen? What had happened to Wynn? Did the Lovelace family do this? “Wynn! Wynnie! I’m Philip, your husband! Don’t you even remember Mila?” Philip roared. In the distance, Wynn sto

“So, you can forget about recruiting Philip. He’s someone I value highly. It’ll be great if he can help us through this crisis. But he’s a man with his own agenda, so he probably won’t give in to us so easily. Anyway, our priority is to gain Philip's trust and trick him into joining us. I believe that won’t be too difficult for our people.” At this point, Brett pointed to the depths of the room to emphasize his meaning. Heath saw this and nodded in silent approval. “I’ll leave it to you. Just handle it properly and make no mistakes. We need to get it done before the demons arrive.” After saying that, Heath rushed back to his room for some reason. Brett received the patriarch's order and went to a woman’s bedroom door. He tore off a seal and opened the door. “Dear sister, congratulations on regaining your freedom. It’s time for you to contribute to the family. You’ll be free once you get it done.” Brett spoke in a condescending tone as if the person in front of him was not

“I've always heard that the Spade family is very powerful, and I can see now that it’s well-deserved. I always thought that the Spade family was on par with the Swift family, but now, it seems that they can't hold a candle to you!” Philip praised the Spade family generously. The two members of the Spade family looked very excited and surprised by Philip’s eloquence. They welcomed people who praised their family. “That’s very nice of you. Are you here to speak to us about cooperation?” Heath knew that Philip wanted to work with them, so he moved to the topic. “Yes, my stand is very clear. I’m going to deal with the Swift family, so I want to confirm some details with you. If there’s no problem, I’ll take action.” They quickly started the discussion. Philip came fully prepared and displayed his concern over this matter. They had a better understanding of each other after the chat. Heath approved of Philip and found that he was a rare talent just as he had imagined. “Since tha

After Philip rescued Liram, Brett was still looking for Liram everywhere. After taking care of things, Philip met up with Loony and returned to the reception room as if nothing had happened, acting calm and composed. Loony glanced at Philip and hesitated to speak. He knew that this was no time to speak. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. Please have some tea. This is the best tea we have.” A maid walked in and poured some tea for Philip. It seemed that she did not notice that Philip and Loony had left earlier. Philip nodded with satisfaction at her reaction. This maid would be their best witness. Brett never dreamed that he would lose Liram. He walked around the garden in annoyance, trying to find a trace of Liram. He had to take care of this no matter what. No one knew whether the intruders earlier were friend or foe. If the secret of the Spade family was exposed because of it, the reputation they built over the years would be ruined. At this time, he bumped into the
The First Heir Chapter 6028
“Liram, I told you not to trust anyone easily, but you didn’t listen to me. In that case, I have to prove my words to you. You weren't wrong to make friends with me, but your problem is knowing too much. How can an outsider know the secrets of our family?” Brett said vehemently. Brett was sincere about making friends with Liram, but he discovered the secrets of his family by accident. The Spade family had always been very prestigious, so no one was allowed to find out such dark secrets about them. “My family has a good reputation in the outside world. It would've been bad if you exposed everything. As the heir of the family, I have to protect our reputation,” Brett said calmly. He did not think it was a pity to kill his friend. “You should feel lucky that you can make some contributions to my family while you can.” Philip roughly understood the situation. Brett had brought his friend here to kill him. What a jerk. At this time, Philip approached Liram and whispered in his e

Brett had used a secret technique to skin the victim alive previously. The man trembled at the thought and was caught in a dilemma. “I don’t know! I didn’t see anything!” He struggled while the other prisoners looked at him with conflicted emotions. It was time to make human puppets, and Brett would use them for experiments. They would probably be the next victims. Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other, and their previous confidence vanished into thin air. “If I tell you, will you let me go?” A bizarre cynocephaly with a dog’s head and human body spoke up. Brett laughed and said, “I knew something was wrong. Since you refuse to speak, I’ll let others tell the truth. I want to see what’s going on.” Brett grabbed the cynocephaly out. The other party prostrated on the floor, looking weak and powerless. “Promise me that you’ll let me go once I tell you everything!” Brett nodded at his pious look. “No problem.” The cynocephaly was excited at Brett’s promise

The other party simply looked at Loony indifferently without responding. Suddenly, Philip’s ear wiggled. He heard something. “Eat this. Someone's coming.” Philip stuffed a pill into Loony's mouth and pulled him into a corner to hide. He heard someone coming from the depths of the cellar. The man who spoke to them heard the movement and shut his mouth. The other prisoners remained silent as well. At this time, a familiar person appeared in front of Philip. It was none other than Brett. This Brett was different from the Brett Philip knew. This one looked sinister and cunning. Philip recalled the Brett he met yesterday. He was elegant and seemed like a trustworthy man at a glance. He was shocked to see this difference in just one day. “I’m ready to create my second human puppet. Does anyone want to volunteer your body?” Brett said with a vicious smile. In everyone’s eyes, he looked no different from the devil. “I have a special preference for humans. In that case, I’ll

“That must be it. Let’s take a look.” Philip pointed to the entrance of the cellar, and Loony shook his head in fear. “I have some knowledge of geomancy, and my gut is telling me that we should avoid that place. We may easily lose our lives there.” The cellar entrance looked very scary, so he refused to step inside. Philip could not be bothered. They were very close to finding the truth. They might miss the opportunity forever if they gave up right now. Hence, Philip dragged Loony into the cellar. Before Loony knew what was going on, he felt his vision go black, and he appeared in the cellar in the next second. He shook his head at Philip’s manhandling, shocked that Philip refused to listen to him. “It’ll be a disaster if we rush in recklessly.” Loony glanced at Philip helplessly. Although disappointed about Philip's distrust in him, it was useless to say anymore now that they were in the cellar. They should figure out how to leave. “With the gusts of cold wind, this

“Let’s go right now. I can’t wait to figure out the situation.” Loony forgot all about breakfast and pulled Philip out of the room. He shuddered when he walked past Hercules. He was afraid of this puppet from the bottom of his heart. Philip simply moved along without a word. He was afraid that Loony would let the cat out of the bag. Philip felt that Loony had exposed them because of his fear. “Philip, where are you going? Can you take me with you?” Aslan said in fear. He trembled all over at the thought of Hercules’ spooky gaze. He just wanted to follow Philip and leave this scary place. “Just stay here for now. If anything happens later, I'll inform you to take care of it.” It was the best time to leave them alone together. Philip would never take Aslan with him. Aslan was in despair to hear that he had to stay behind. As Philip marched away, Aslan gritted his teeth and went into Lyle's room as if he wanted to chat with him, but he was actually seeking refuge. Herc
The First Heir Chapter 6023
Aslan felt that he was going nuts. He never thought he would meet someone so scary. That guy was torturing him mentally. “Your eyebags are really heavy,” Philip suddenly commented. Aslan was certainly scared out of his wits. Something was definitely up with that human puppet, but Philip did not intend to tell Aslan the truth yet. “I’ve decided not to sleep. Let’s see what that guy is up to!” Practitioners could go without sleeping for a long time but as humans, they had the habit of resting at fixed times. Philip shook his head at Aslan’s reaction. He could tell that Aslan would suffer immensely, but he had to sacrifice this poor guy to get to the bottom of this. “I’m off.” Aslan tossed the quilt to one side and walked out. The moment he opened the door, Philip heard him gasp. He looked out of the door curiously and saw Hercules standing outside, staring at Aslan oddly. “Dude, what’s your problem? Will you die if you don't peek at others?” Aslan said in annoyance. He
