Philip nodded faintly, looking indifferent as he stood up and asked, “Professor Henry, do you have any opinion on this?” Henry glanced at Jeffrey, screaming on the floor, and then replied, “He asked for it. To have Mr. Clarke punish him for his wrongdoing is his honor.” His nephew had just been crippled, but the man said it was an honor instead. Theo inhaled a breath of cold air. He already knew that Mr. Clarke was not a regular man, but he never anticipated him to be this powerful! Henry Turner was the magnate of the medical world, the Healing Hand of God! He had cured so many prominent figures. The man was a living, breathing network! With just a few words from Henry, Theo could easily fall to the lowest level in society. At that moment, Jeffrey was still on the ground, staring at his uncle as he mumbled, “Uncle… avenge me…” Henry looked furious. Although he did not know exactly what his nephew did wrong, it must have been serious! “Director Stanley, take Jeffrey away and d
The First Heir Chapter 30
Philip got into the Audi and continued discussing Mila’s condition with Henry. Henry had already researched Mila’s condition for half a month now, and the success rate he could come up with was 80%! That meant a very high chance of complete recovery! They went to the hospital to take a look at Wynn. She was now safe but still unconscious due to the shock. Just after Philip left the hospital entrance with Henry, Keagan, and Theo in tow, he received a call from his father-in-law. Charles was furious as he bellowed, “Philip! Where did you run off to? Where’s the painting I told you to deliver?” Slap! Philip smacked his forehead then remembered that he had left the house this morning to deliver a painting to Civil Gallery. How could he have forgotten it? Without another thought, Philip quickly said, “Send me to Southville Street.” Theo immediately went up to open the door of his Benz, inviting Philip in. Henry and Keagan, too, wanted to invite Philip into their own cars, but they

Philip frowned at Aiden. The latter glared furiously at him and smirked. “You’re even late at the simple request of delivering a painting. Aren’t you just blatantly disrespecting Uncle Johnston?” Slap! Charles had come over with an infuriated expression and slapped Philip hard across the face. He bellowed in anger, “Why do I have such a useless son-in-law like you? You’re an embarrassment!” This sudden slap stunned everyone inside the exhibition hall. However, there was not a trace of sympathy on these people’s faces. Instead, it was filled with mockery. Watching Charles hit Philip in front of so many people made Aiden ecstatic. Great slap! Trash like this should get slapped more often. A biting chill flashed in Philip’s eyes, but he quickly suppressed it. Lowering his head, Philip said, “I’m sorry, Dad. I was a little delayed on the way.” “Hmph!” Charles let out a cold snort. He took the painting, composed his emotions, then turned around smilingly to walk away. “Come, come,
The First Heir Chapter 32
At this thought, Charles glanced at Philip, who was standing idly in a corner. He snorted in annoyance and mumbled, “What a useless man!” Philip noticed his father-in-law looking at him, so he gave him a bright smile, but the older man only rolled his eyes at him. Okay, so the older man really did think nothing of him. Just then, outside of Civil Gallery, a luxurious Bentley stopped at the entrance. A few female receptionists quickly rushed over. Russell Field had specifically come to Civil Gallery today because he heard that there would be a treasure from China’s Ming Dynasty displayed today. An authentic painting by Tang Bohu! He was very intrigued. The man was a famous collector in the country, so when he heard that there would be a rare piece on display, of course, he had to see it with his own eyes! Soon after he stepped into the gallery, Russell’s identity caused an uproar. “Oh god! Isn’t that President Field from Civil Trading Group?” “The grandmaster of collectors i
The First Heir Chapter 33
With just one look, Russell could tell that this was not the painting he gave Mr. Clarke. This was a counterfeit! So, who gave this painting to Charles? It was even displayed in Civil Gallery, and it seemed like everyone here thought it was an authentic piece. While Russell was lost in thought, Charles started to talk about this painting ceaselessly, including an explanation of its origins. “Master Russell, this painting is a birthday gift from Addy. It’s a priceless piece. Would you like to appraise it?” Addy? Aiden! Russell stared at Aiden, who was smiling to his eyes with an odd look. The latter seemed full of himself. This was the man who was rude to Mr. Clarke earlier! With this, Russell now had a plan formed. Aiden, you’re dead meat! I will teach you a lesson in place of Mr. Clarke! Russell walked over to the glass display earnestly and started examining it. Everyone felt the air become tense and mysterious as they watched on. After all, this was Master Russell, a famous

A fake! The crowd in the gallery burst into an uproar. It was actually a fake! “Impossible! How could this be a fake? We’ve all seen it before. It’s a genuine piece.” Charles quickly explained. “Although I’m not as famous as Master Russell, I can still tell a painting’s authenticity. How could this be a fake?” Russell knew that Charles would be in denial, so he analyzed the painting on the spot. “This painting could be said to be mistaken for the genuine piece. It’s not surprising if you guys can’t tell. But if you all take a closer look, the lines on these few figures are not full enough. There is an obvious gradient shown on the lines and color. This is a defect caused by machines, and it’s very subtle so many people can’t actually tell…” As the crowd listened to Russell’s explanation, they finally realized the truth. “So, it’s a fake! Charles Johnston, you’re too much!” “Yeah! After a whole day of suspense, you ended up showing us a fake instead! What gives?” In an insta
The First Heir Chapter 35
“Of course,” answered Aiden proudly. Russell already knew that Aiden would say this. Hiding a smile, he continued to ask, “May I know which friend did Mr. Grant buy this from?” Upon hearing this, the delight on Aiden’s face grew. Could Russell want to be acquainted with that friend of his? This was an excellent opportunity for him to befriend Russell. “President Field, his name is David White, the owner of an antique market. He’s quite famous. I can call him over this instant.” Aiden smiled. “There’s no need.” Russell waved then took out his phone to say smilingly, “I’m acquainted with David White.” Of course, Russell knew David White. The man was a famous antique market owner, but at the same time, he had a notorious reputation within the community. The reason was that David was an expert at selling counterfeits and forged pieces. He often sold off his fakes to people who did not know better, and it looked like David had tricked Aiden. However, Russell did not feel an ounce
The First Heir Chapter 36
“Master Russell, please let me explain.” David was anxious as large drops of sweat rolled down his forehead. Aiden was confused as he asked, “Mr. White, what’s wrong with you?” David was troubled. He now knew why Russell had called him over, so he quickly said to Aiden, “Mr. Grant, I’m sorry. The painting that I sold you last time was a fake. I’ll refund you the money as soon as I get back.” “A fake?” Aiden shrieked. The crowd of people standing behind him all gasped, looking incredulous. Charles looked especially shocked and was utterly stunned. “Mr. White, what do you mean? What do you mean by ‘a fake’? I’ve spent two million to buy it!” Aiden was getting flustered, feeling his body alternate between hot and cold. “And Master Russell had said earlier that that painting is an authentic piece. Are you drunk?” David was now like a cat on a hot tin roof. Upon hearing the words ‘authentic piece’, he rushed over to the glass display and looked carefully at it before exclaiming, “

The Spade family’s bad reputation was finally confirmed. Philip was indifferent about this outcome. He knew that the Spade family would be ruined one day. He simply brought the day forward. He had not planned to deal with the Spade family, but they kept messing with him. Not only did they plant a puppet around him to monitor him all day long, but they also wanted to turn him into a puppet. Philip would never let this evil villain off. Aslan had the most fun fighting. He still felt a lingering fear at the thought of Hercules’ terrifying face. Hercules not only attacked Aslan but also put him under various illusions. The fearless Aslan was frightened by Hercules, and it embarrassed him to no end. At this time, Maven walked out of her room but showed no surprise at this scene. Brett nervously called out to Maven for help, “Maven, come here. These people have gone crazy. Stop them. Don't let them wreck the cellar!” Someone pushed Brett by accident. He lost his balance and f

“That guy is such an idiot,” Philip said. Philip swallowed a pill and joined the crowd that was making an uproar. With the pill, he was sure that no one could detect his true identity. Brett quickly rushed to the scene and was shocked by the commotion. “What’s going on?” Brett asked his father nervously. Heath told Brett everything that happened. He had lost his composure and could only leave the rest to his son. “You told them about the demon invasion?” Brett exclaimed in disbelief. They had agreed to conceal this matter. After all, they wanted to develop themselves, and they could also blame the appearance of the human puppets on the demons. Brett had planned to use the demons to catch the others off guard and take advantage of the situation thereafter. That would not only enhance his strength but he would also reap many benefits. However, all his plans were ruined. Not only was he unable to cause trouble, but he was the one in trouble instead. “Stop acting dumb. Te

“I heard some appalling news about this family before, but I was afraid of saying it. Now, even the minotaurs can't stand it.” As part of the act, Aslan appeared just in time. With a look of horror on his face, he described the perverse actions of this family in vivid detail as if he had experienced it himself. Lyle staggered out of the crowd, putting on a pitiful act. “I’m one of the prisoners that the minotaurs just rescued. The Spade family is really up to no good. They locked me up because they wanted to turn me into a human puppet. Other than humans, they experimented on other races too.” Lyle spoke about other races and immediately incited public outrage. They could turn a blind eye if this was a matter between humans. After all, no one made contact with humans, but it was a different case if it involved their own. “I’m willing to testify that everything is true.” A rescued prisoner stepped forward. All of them were willing to testify. With Aslan and Lyle adding f

“Let’s go. Did you hear that something is going on in the Spade family?” “What? How is that possible?” “I can’t believe that anything will happen to the Spade family. I trust them wholeheartedly.” Everyone rushed forward out of curiosity. Although many people expressed their doubt, they could not quell their curiosity. The minotaurs smashed everything in their path as they went through the house, and the scene was shocking. The commotion attracted Heath's attention, and he was puzzled. “What’s going on?” Heath walked out for a look and found a crowd at the door. The onlookers were pointing and watching the excitement taking place at the Heath family's residence. Heath was nothing but confused about this scene. Then, he saw the minotaurs destroying his home. Heath was just a step late when someone destroyed the walls of their house. It was too much, and Heath could not accept it. The minotaurs gradually realized how fun it was to destroy everything and did it happily.

The effects of the pills could last a long time, allowing them to enter the city without restraint and avoid discovery. After hearing the cynocephaly out, Brett trembled with anger. Philip was all to blame! “I knew you had something to do with this!” Brett rushed forward angrily and grabbed Philip by the collar. He had guessed that Philip had something to do with it but not to this extent. “What are the pills you gave them?” Brett had heard of pills but he had never seen the pills that only existed in the legends so far. The cynocephaly shook his head. He wanted to know too. Philip was so stingy and did not give him one. “Get out of my sight. Don’t let me see you again. There won’t be a second chance.” Brett waved his hand angrily and dismissed the ugly cynocephaly. Hearing that, the cynocephaly laughed excitedly. “Great! Thank you!” He lowered his head to Brett before running away. Although his body had been battered beyond recognition, it did not stop him from running.
The First Heir Chapter 6051
The cynocephaly tried to beg Philip but to no avail, so he had to give up in the end. Brett returned to the cellar at this time. He wanted to pretend to have a good relationship with Philip and take something from him so that he could control the minotaur. Brett felt a gust of wind blowing over him when he arrived at the cellar. He opened the cellar door and looked around in confusion but did not see anything. “That’s strange. What’s that feeling just now?” Brett scratched his head in puzzlement. Although he could not figure it out, he was not bothered. The cellar was not well-ventilated, so it was normal for there to be a gust of wind when the door was opened. He had nothing to worry about. The pitiful prisoners ran out in a panic in their invisible mode. They were worried that they would be discovered, but they quickly realized that no one could see them. Philip's pills were too amazing for words. Everyone etched Philip’s name in their hearts and saw him as their hero
The First Heir Chapter 6050
The cynocephaly did not notice any strange reaction on Philip’s face. After much deliberation, he decided to go for it. He had to find a way to leave this hellhole with Philip at all costs! “Hey, I can see you have extraordinary talents. You must be a powerful person. In that case, why don’t you take us away?” the cynocephaly said with a smile, and everyone around him glanced at him in disdain. They knew how disgusting the cynocephaly was. It was obvious that he wanted to take this opportunity to please Philip. Everyone hated the cynocephaly because he always caused trouble. Since everyone was a pitiful prisoner, no one could be bothered about him, but they were angry at his actions now. “Cynocephaly, you’re so shameless. I think you should be turned into a human puppet!” “I’ve never seen such a shameless guy like you in my life!” Everyone reprimanded the cynocephaly, feeling disgusted by him from the bottom of their hearts. “Buddy, don’t listen to them. I never said anyt

“Don’t worry, everything will be fine now that I’m here! With my help, you can surely survive in this place!” Brett kept promising the minotaur excitedly, wishing he could take the minotaur under his wing immediately. “Hold on, let me inform my family head about this!” Brett planned to attack the minotaur at first, but hearing that he had his family with him, Brett wanted everyone instead. “Okay, I’ll wait.” The minotaur sat aside and waited for Brett. The plan was going well so far. The minotaur suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment. He never thought that he would trick someone one day. In the past, they never interacted with others because they could not outwit them. Meanwhile, Brett headed to his father’s room to inform him about this matter in detail. He knew that this matter would definitely cause a sensation. The minotaurs were a precious commodity to them. “Now that I have the minotaur under control, we just need to ask him to summon his people here, and everything

It was a win-win situation for Brett. Everyone else was exasperated by the Spade family’s plan. Everyone thought that being turned into a puppet was terrible enough, but the Spade family had plans to put them to work on top of that. “Wow, this herb is really good, but you just entered the secular world, so you must be uncomfortable. I have some good things for you. Why don’t we take a look in private?” Brett was very hospitable and acted like a great guy. Everyone looked at him thoughtfully. Brett was obviously up to something. “I don’t mind visiting, but you need to make ample arrangements. Philip has promised to prepare a lot of herbs for us. Although he hasn't fulfilled his promise yet, I believe he can do it,” the minotaur said meaningfully. Brett smiled excitedly at the minotaur’s dumb reaction. “No problem, I’ll make arrangements right away!” Aslan did not get involved. He knew that he had to give them some time. “Will you come with me?” Brett invited the minotaur e
