The family stared at Philip. He knew who this young master was?Wynn’s eyes lit up as she stared at Philip while the latter spoke as if it was an act of generosity to share the knowledge he had. “The young master of the Clarke Group is actually…” “You?”Martha interrupted abruptly. She said it in a tone of ruthless taunting before Philip could finish his sentence. Snorting twice for good measure, Martha wore an expression of pure sarcasm. “Were you going to tell us you’re the young master? I’ve never realized you’re so prone to lying, Philip Clarke, but I suppose it’s better late than never. Wynnie marrying you is a tragedy!” “Mom, can you not talk to Philip like that? Why are you so opinionated about him when all he has been doing these few years is take your complaints and chides in stride?” Wynn sighed and shook her head dejectedly. It was as if her mother and Philip were mortal enemies or something. She just had to berate or hit him a few times before she would move o

“Stop! Stay away!” Martha shivered down to her bones in fear, still traumatized by the choking incident that night. She darted to hide behind Wynn as she scolded, “Look, Wynnie. This is Philip Clarke! I can’t believe he wants to hit me. Who’s the head of the family here? He’s going too far!” “Haha.” Philip scoffed, too lazy to argue with Martha. Philip had always been a sore sight to her, coupled with his attitude the past few days, Martha could not help the anger that began to boil. No, she had to throw this piece of trash out the Johnston family tree! She had to get Wynn to divorce him! Otherwise, that would be the end of Martha’s peaceful days. “Listen to your mother, okay Wynnie? I’ve already set it up for you with Joel. He’s bringing you out on vacation for a few days. Make good use of this chance, okay? Joel’s family is rich, and he’s the CEO of Hodgson Pharmaceutical too. Don’t let such a great opportunity slip by, it’ll be good for both you and your company.”

Paula’s tone was laced heavily with the intent to make fun. It was one that caused Martha to flush in anxiety as the words cut like knives. Wynn could tell as well that her Aunt Paula was making things difficult for Philip. However, she was in no position to say anything as Aunt Paula was her elder. “Oh? So this is Wynn’s husband. He looks fine to me, though. Yup, all limbs intact.” Frank had not made any motion to stand at all. Instead, he sat on the sofa and sipped peacefully on his tea as he crudely commented. “Haha. Honey, you’re so funny. Didn’t you say he’s a simplistic man?” Comprehending the implications of his words, Samantha hid a smile behind her hand. Philip was confused. ‘What the heck?’ All he did was go out for a smoke, how did he end up being the center of everyone’s jokes when he returned? ‘Frank McDonald and Samantha Benson? ‘You are nothing to me!’Philip’s expression darkened. “What are you doing just standing there? Come say hello. Meet Samanth

Philip, on the other hand, was close to bursting in laughter at Samatha’s claim. Rocker Pharmaceutical, owned by Clarke Group from Capital City. After all that fuss, it turned out that it was his family’s enterprise. What the heck was Frank so smug about?He wanted nothing more than to tell them this Rocket Pharmaceutical they built their arrogance on, was his. “Aunt Martha sure is envious of you, Sammy. Your days must be spent in comfort with such a great husband, right? Unlike my Wynnie over here, what a tragic life she’s living…” Martha made sure to send a few glares at Philip as she spoke, frustration bubbling within her chest. It was all because of that useless piece of trash!“Relax, Martha. An opportunity has arisen itself, no? I heard Clarke Group from Capital City invested in Wynnie’s company, right? That’s a billion yuan into the, what’s the name again? Ah yes, Beacon Pharmaceutical! That’s a lot of money.” Paula beamed brightly. “Wynnie, your mother told me you
The First Heir Chapter 361
Philip supposed he understood Frank’s incessant desire to act pretentious. Frank seemed to feel the most comfortable basked in the envious gazes of Wynn and Martha. Indeed, men with specific advantages were more prone to receiving better resources. With how things were going, perhaps all he needed was a little extra effort and a young woman like Wynn would easily become his. Stop, stop, stop! Taking in his expression, Philip realized that Frank was a man of high maintenance. “You have to tell Aunt Martha if you ever manage to contact this Young Master Clarke, okay Frank? Aunt Martha here wants to treat this Young Master Clarke to a meal and maybe get to know him a little bit.” Martha gazed at Frank with nothing but anticipation. “Of course, Aunt Martha. That won't be too difficult considering how Young Master Clarke and I are rather close.” Frank added shamelessly as if it was the truth. Lifting his wrist to check the time, he told Wynn, “Oh, and Wynn. There’ll be a d

Philip was lost. He did not know what Martha Yates was plotting. Paula, however, was crystal clear. Her sister simply did not want Philip to tag along on the matter of discussing a partnership. The one billion investment was as good as theirs the moment Frank initiated a partnership with Beacon Pharmaceutical. There was no need for inputs from outsiders like Philip, lest he demanded a portion of the money. As a result, Paula immediately backed her sister up, “Yeah, yeah. I don’t think you should go.” There was not much Philip could do. Seeing the Yates sisters agreeing, Philip found himself understanding the actual goal. The only reason they did not want his involvement meant that they were eying the one billion investment. ‘Oh well.’ He did not want to eat with a materialistic mother-in-law and her relatives either. “Very well, then. I won’t go.”Philip turned to speak to Wynn. “Don’t drink, it’s not good for the baby.” Both Frank and Samantha were shocked at the
The First Heir Chapter 363
To that, Philip replied with a ‘That’s all’. On the other end, George inquired, ‘Are you at Dragon King Palace, Young Master? Mr. Cash, the person in charge of Capital City’s division of Clarke Group, is here with me and is hoping to meet up with you about the matters of the Beacon investment. Should I send him over to wait for you at Dragon King Palace?’‘The person in charge of Clarke Group’s Capital City division?’ Philip wore an expression of suspicion before it morphed into a playful smile as he turned his gaze to Frank who continued to sing high praises of himself. He replied to the text, ‘Sure. Have him come over.’Having replied, Philip put his phone down again. The Clarke family had more than just one Clarke Group. The one in Capital City was merely a small group of theirs. Martha was enraged at her useless trash of a son-in-law. After grumbling about it for a while, she gave an apologetic smile. “How can I let you pay so much? How about I pay for it this time?” To

“Thanks, but no thanks, Manager Frank. I quite like the feeling of being taken care of by my wife. Plus, she likes taking care of me.” Philip said shamelessly as he smiled at Wynn. “Sure, I’ll take care of you,” Wynn replied coordinately, her eyes sparkling with stars. Anger flared in Frank at the scene before him. Scoffing, he returned to his seat for there was not much left for him to say. Samantha saw through him and kicked Frank under the table, mumbling, “What’s that all about? You can’t possibly have taken a fancy to my cousin now, have you?!” Her piercing gaze demanded answers. Frank smiled, holding Samantha’s small hand in his own. “What are you talking about? There’s only you.” The meal progressed with Paula’s family picking on Philip at any chance they got. To which he merely brushed off and paid them no heed. After all, it would not make sense to let such brainless comments dampen his mood. Wynn, though, nudged the back of his legs worriedly with her own and

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
