In the elevator, Ruby had also recognized both Howard and Philip.Without an ounce of regret, her first response was to frown disgustedly and glare at the duo.Then, right before Howard’s eyes, she pecked the middle-aged man on his cheek and neck.She even went as far as to humor the man by clinging on to him. Time froze. The elevator doors closed. Philip sighed hopelessly and walked forward to pat the shocked Howard on his shoulder. “I’ve been trying to tell you. Ruby…” Howard interrupted before Philip could finish talking. With a forced smile and tears that threatened to spill from his eyes, he said, “Come on, let’s go. It’s time to eat. Ruby just went to buy something. She’ll be back in a while.” Philip was stunned. ‘Howard really doesn’t plan to admit it, does he?’ Having said that, Howard turned to leave. Philip’s expression hardened as he watched Howard’s retreating figure. He roared, “Dude! How the f*ck long more are you going to lie to yourself? That over ther

The entire restaurant fell into silence at Philip’s question. Everyone was confused.‘Such a bold claim. ‘Hundreds of millions worth of assets? ‘Doesn’t he only have 300,000 bucks? That was merely a small diamond ring too. ‘But he’s suddenly rich now that his girlfriend is breaking up with him?’Ruby smirked tauntingly as she turned to Philip. “Come again? He’s nothing but a piece of trash, just like you. Hundreds of millions worth of assets? Who are you kidding?” ‘Even at this point, he opts to butt in instead of pulling Howard away? ‘Hundreds of millions worth of assets? ‘What a joke.’Ruby had been with Howard for four years. If anyone, she would know best about his financial condition, no? The fat greasy man by Ruby’s side also began to make relentless fun of the duo before him. “Who’s this f*cker? Do you know him, Ruby dear?”The man had never seen someone as shameless as Philip. The man was not alone in his opinion. In fact, everyone else spectating, mostly

Everyone fetched for their phones immediately even though most of them were aware that the phone ringing was not their own. Staring at Deaton, Philip motioned with a jerk of his chin. “It’s yours.” Stunned, Deaton reached for his pockets to realize it was indeed his phone. Most importantly, it was from his company’s secretary. Had he not already established that they were not to disturb him today? Deaton frowned. Having no idea what the meaning behind the call was, he picked it up with a smile. “Right in time. A call from my company’s secretary. I’ll get to ask if my assets have been…” Before he could finish speaking, his ear was met with the anxious voice of his sexy female secretary. “Mr. Wade, something has happened! Our company’s been bought and transferred to someone else’s name.” Stunned, cold sweat began to form on Deaton’s forehead. “What?” He was shocked. The unease in his chest caused his entire body to shiver in fear as he stared at Philip. “Mr. Wade, all y

Giada Wallis! ‘She has found Wynn and Mila, but what does she want?’ Philip felt his eyebrow twitch as his expression shed its warmth. Anxiously, he uttered out, “I’ll be there soon!” Philip had no time to explain and quickly hailed a taxi to the hospital. Having just drunk, he could not drive. Philip reached the hospital within ten minutes and quickly alighted the car, dashing toward Mila’s hospital room. Pushing open the door, he was met with the scene of Wynn speaking happily to a graceful woman. The duo was shrouded by an indescribable air of harmony. “Philip, You’re back.” Wynn stood from where she previously sat and greeted him with a warm smile. Opposite her was Giada Wallis. Donned in an expensive set of clothing and an aura of nobility that one could only be born with, she gave off the royal vibe fit for a queen merely by sitting there. Despite being over 40 years of age, this was a woman with the beauty of a 20-year-old lady. The small quirk on the corner

Giada smiled right as Philip was about to leave. “Aren’t you curious about what Wynn Johnston and I were talking about, Philip?” The temperature of the room seemed to drop significantly with that one sentence. Furious, Philip turned to punch Giada. Unfortunately, all eight of her bodyguards formed a wall between them. “Move!” Philip roared, flames of fury burning in his eyes. Yet the eight bodyguards only averted their gaze downward, not moving an inch. Giada was who they took orders from. Philip might be the Clarke’s young master, but he was not the man of the house. As such, he had no right to give orders. “I apologize, Young Master, but we have our orders,” said the head of the bodyguards. Philip frowned and kicked the man. “F*ck you!” Giada smiled. Putting on her pair of sunglasses, she left with her bodyguards behind her. Standing by the window of the resting area, Philip watched as Giada got into a Rolls-Royce at the entrance. With three black Mercedes-Ben

F*ck! Where did Wynn come from? Suddenly nervous, cold sweat began to form on his forehead as Philip hung up the call and smiled. “Wynnie! What’re you doing out here?” Handing Philip his breakfast, Wynn stared amusedly at her husband who had begun to profusely perspire. Crossing her arms and her legs, she stared at Philip with mock arrogance and asked, “So, what’s this about 100 billion and 70% of the world’s wealth again?” Philip was nervous as he fumbled with his hands, not knowing where to put them. ‘Oh no! ‘Could this be the end of the lie?’ Philip stood up. “Okay. I’ll tell you the truth!” Strongly gripping onto Wynn’s shoulders, Philip’s eyes shone with overzealous excitement. “Wynnie. I, Philip Clarke, am actually one of the richest heirs in the world. My family is very rich and very powerful, and I’m given an allowance of 100 billion!” ‘What?’ Wynn was stunned. She was blinking confoundedly at him before her blank stares turned into fuming glares. “What on e

Paula flicked a glance at Philip. Amused by his timid and obedient display, she could not help her sarcasm. “You have such a good son-in-law. Although he’s not promising, he’s good at doing housework. You can be relaxed because of that.” Martha was angry when she heard this and promptly cursed. “He’s nothing but a useless piece of trash. So what if he can do the housework? If he’s half as good as Frank, I won’t have to suffer so much and live in this old manor with Charles.” Paula’s eyes narrowed with a smile. When she saw Philip walking over with the tea, she deliberately loosened her hold on the cup, making hot water spill all over Philip’s hands. The boiling hot water instantly burned Philip’s skin a fiery red! The cup also shattered with a loud crack. “Oh dear, I’m so sorry. The cup was too hot, and I didn’t hold it properly. Philip, I hope your hands are alright.” Paula pretended to be concerned. Philip clenched his teeth in pain and forced out a smile. “It’s fine.”

Philip raised his eyebrows and watched the video in Lynn’s hand. He reached out to grab the phone. “What do you want?” Philip asked. Lynn was not coy about it. She grabbed Philip’s arm and smiled intimately. “I was tight-lipped about your business last time, so this time, how do I put it... I should receive some hush money from you.” Philip frowned and looked at Lynn. This girl had plastered her body against his, and her provocative demeanor made him short of breath. “Just say it, what do you want?” Philip asked. “Let me drive the car around for a couple of days.” Lynn did not beat around the bush and reached out for the key. It was a Ferrari, a car she had never driven before. If she drove it to school, it would be flashy as hell! Hence, she would borrow the Ferrari from Philip today no matter what. Philip frowned, thought about it for a moment, and shook his head before saying, “No way, the car isn’t mine.” Lynn immediately became anxious and said, “Not yours? Phili

“No one ever comes to my place. You must be outsiders.” Celeste was curious, wondering who Philip was. Celeste knew about the four unique races, but Philip’s appearance and form did not fit any of them. “You’re right. I’m an outsider. I wanted to know something, so I came to the forest. It’s best if you can give me an answer. I don’t intend to harm anyone. If you can answer my questions, I’ll leave and remove the curse on you as well,” Philip persuaded her. He felt that the woman was quite sincere, different from what he imagined. In that case, there was no need to make things difficult for her. Besides, he did not feel a murderous vibe in her, so she had probably never done anything bad. Philip had no reason to make things difficult for someone who liked to hide and sing. “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I know, but I don’t really know much. I usually stay in my own territory and have no contact with the outside world. Even the other races don't know of my existence.” Rabbit

Philip felt that there was no problem with his hearing. Someone was humming a song, and the tune sounded very strange and spooky in the dark forest. Rabbit frowned and nodded. He also heard the strange sound and was scared. “Who has nothing better to do but to sing here?” Rabbit nervously grabbed the corner of Philip's clothes, afraid that Philip would leave him behind. Philip shook his head. According to the others, no one would come here for no reason. Due to various dangers in the forest, they would only wander around the edge without seeking trouble in the depths. In that case, the abrupt singing voice was very strange, indeed. “Philip, don't be nervous. Stay calm.” Rabbit's voice was trembling. Although Rabbit kept telling Philip to stay calm, he was already freaking out, so scared that he nearly wanted to run away. Philip knew Rabbit’s character, so he did not comment. He simply observed the surroundings and listened carefully to the sound, which was so ethereal tha

Philip took Puffy along and quickly arrived in a forest where the other races usually hunted, so they should not face any danger here. As soon as Philip left, a woman appeared in the corner and looked in the direction where Philip left with a conflicted look on her face. “Should I follow him?” Ariadna had been left behind in the snake people’s village. She had no friends, and no one paid her any attention. Sometimes, they even displayed their ridicule and disdain for her. She did not get good treatment even though she was a junior from the outside world. In desperation, Ariadna decided to follow Philip. Unexpectedly, she saw Philip with a cute kid the next second. Ariadna was surprised to see that Philip had such a big and cute child. “Wait, that kid looks a little weird.” Due to the distance, Ariadna could not see what the kid looked like, but his color and body shape seemed different from that of normal people. After much deliberation, Ariadna decided to tag along, co

“I’ll look around and find out what’s going on. Don’t worry about me. Look for Ronan if anything crops up.” Philip decided to leave Ronan in charge. Ronan did not object. He knew that Philip wanted to train him. He rarely interacted with others, so he had poor social skills. He had improved with Philip’s help, but his skills were still nothing compared to Philip’s subordinates. He was deeply moved by the opportunity that Philip had given him. “Sure enough, heroes will emerge from the youth. You two will have a bright future!” Wren said excitedly. Philip did not comment. After a few pleasantries, he wandered around with Rabbit. Selma and her people had no time for Philip. They finally found their predecessors, so they had many questions to solve. Philip was most interested in getting to the bottom of this mysterious place. It felt more like a cage designed to trap them. It was devoid of rich energy and other resources suitable for them. What was the purpose of the person b

A woman like Arachne who pursued her own happiness was usually frowned upon. A person who was willing to sacrifice for the family would be recorded in history forever. Weaver patted Ariadna's shoulder expectantly, believing she could carry it out. After all, he did not know what had happened between them earlier. Everything was a big mistake. “I don’t think I can complete this difficult task,” Ariadna said nervously, afraid that Weaver would put too much hope on her. Ariadna knew that Rabbit had a grudge against her. Moreover, some of her actions had offended Philip, who might ignore her because of that. Thinking of this, she wanted to decline the task, but Weaver was very firm about his decision. “As the holy maiden of the family, this task is yours. No one else can do it but you.” Weaver put Ariadna on a high pedestal, so all the pressure fell on her. Weaver left with the others, leaving the poor holy maiden behind. Arachne looked at Ariadna resentfully. The opportunity

“You never considered the consequences when you tried to take advantage of us. We brought them here, and they have the right to choose. Don't think about taking advantage.” Philip nodded at Fitz’s attitude. Sure enough, he liked this earnest man and was happy with his point of view. “If you want something, you need to pay a price for it. As I mentioned, I’m a businessman, so I prefer fair trade. I’m more than happy if you want to discuss a deal with me.” In fact, they had reached an agreement before the spider people arrived. Philip would not help the other three races for free, but he was not bad enough to charge them fees either. However, the spider people were different. Not to mention that Philip had a bad impression of them, but Rabbit’s grudge also remained unavenged. The spider people scowled at Philip’s disrespect, which was simply outrageous. The other races laughed gloatingly. The spider people had always been arrogant and domineering, preventing their developme

“I'm afraid that the snake people will strike a deal with him and monopolize everything.” The old man anxiously led everyone in the direction of the snake people. They could not miss the chance to share a piece of the pie. However, he did not intend to tell his people about it. The other two races no longer existed in the outside world, so it did not matter if they could not leave. It would be best to let their legends fade away in history. That idea was very selfish. Just when he thought he could grab all the benefits by stealth, the snake people shared the information without keeping it a secret. However, the snake people only shared the news with the other two races. They did not have a good impression of the spider people and even had the idea of leaving them behind. When the spider people hurried over, they found a crowd. They saw not only the young ones of the snake people but also those from the other two races. The other two races were the turtles and magpies. Just li

The old man felt annoyed when he saw the two women not getting along. He knew that the holy maidens of the family would face a lot of struggles. Ambitious women would try every means to cause trouble just to destroy the status of the holy maidens. By doing so, they could find ways to replace them. It was an underhanded method but effective. After all, not everyone could cope with the distinguished status of the holy maiden. One mistake could be fatal. Therefore, a holy maiden had to be prideful and flawless, just like an untainted and pure white lotus. The old man nodded thoughtfully. He did not think that Arachne looked like the holy maiden, and his suspicions were confirmed. She was not the holy maiden at all. Actions spoke louder than words. Arachne did not carry a regal bearing, so she would not act like a queen even if she wore a crown. At first, the old man wondered why the spider family would choose someone so unbefitting for the role of the holy maiden. Now that
The First Heir Chapter 6193
At this point, an old man walked over. Although they usually maintained their true form, they sometimes took on a human form. Unlike the snake people who did not look very different between the two forms, the spider people looked outrageous in their true forms. “Are you one of the younger generation from outside?” The old man was curious to see the younger children's arrival at this place today. As someone who could not wait to make an impression, Arachne rushed forward and began to introduce herself. In short, Arachne was gradually taking over Ariadna’s position. Although the others were annoyed, they did not say anything because Arachne was really putting in some effort. There was no point in arguing about such things. The most important thing was to remove their curse. The old man was very excited and could not wait to welcome them. “This is wonderful. It has been thousands of years since we saw an outsider!” His eyes gleamed with excitement. “Tell me how you got in,” he
