“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

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

“What are you doing, Philip Clarke?” Frank roared. Who did this piece of sh*t think he was? Frank’s life would be turned upside down if he offended Hudson Cash! “Do you have any idea who this is? This is Mr. Cash of Capital City’s Clarke Group! Apologize to Mr. Cash right now, you presumptuous b*stard!” Anxiety spiked in Frank. Philip had no filter. This was Mr. Cash from Capital City’s Clarke Group! He oversaw the business of a group that was worth hundreds of billions! One could only imagine the power and connections Mr. Cash had! “Have you gone crazy, Philip Clarke?” Paula was shocked! She was scared sh*tless by the words of her son-in-law. Philip had no fear. Who was he to mind the businesses of Mr. Cash, the chairman of Capital City’s Clarke Group? Offending this Mr. Cash meant their entire family would be plagued with misfortune! Both Paula and Samantha were staring intensely at Philip who was still eating, wishing nothing more than to throw this eyesore out

Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.

It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not

Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S

“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family

“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited

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
