The First Heir Chapter 417
They looked in the direction of the voice and saw the crowd parting as though before a tide.A cold beauty in a white dress was striding toward them.She was tall and slender, with an air of invincibility. She looked around the crowd, and her gaze made many girls back away, defeated by her perfection.When her beautiful eyes swept across them, the cold arrogance in them made countless attendees lower their heads, as though they stood before the queen of a snowy kingdom.“Who is she?”Someone in the crowd sneered.One of his friends had recognized the woman, and he hastily clapped his hand over his companion’s mouth, his face pale. “Are you mad? That’s Miss Chloe Somerset! Don’t you recognize her?”“Miss Chloe?”The first man who spoke froze. He then suddenly remembered something, all the blood draining from his face as he hurriedly held his tongue.The woman was none other than Chloe Somerset.“Miss Chloe?”Mr. Moseby’s expression changed the second he saw Chloe. He suddenly

“How could he know Miss Chloe? Impossible!”The moment he saw Chloe, Mickey’s expression changed and he gasped out loud.“Mickey-baby, who’s Chloe Sommerset exactly?”Jennie asked curiously.Chloe had always kept a low profile and rarely ever joined the Riverdale elites in their parties, so very few people knew about her.If it were not for Philip, she would not have organized this birthday party today either.“She’s the granddaughter of Old Master Sommerset from Capital City and Hans Sommerset’s youngest daughter.”Mickey’s face twitched as he answered Jenie’s question in a whisper.“That’s her?”Jennie was stunned, while Yvonne and the others next to her felt their hearts skip a beat as well.Hans Sommerset was much more well-known than his daughter.He was the direct heir to the Sommersets, Old Master Sommerset’s son and the current head of the family.He controlled the number one family in Capital City, the Sommersets.Even outside of Riverdale, anyone in the entire pr

Wynn was on her way back to the hospital after work when she received her cousin’s call.“What’s wrong with Philip?”Wynn chuckled, hailing down a cab by the curb.“Do you think I’m lying, Wynn? Why would I? You just have to come to Sunset Villa and you’ll know!”Lynn was anxious beyond belief. She stared intently at Philip, who was walking with Chloe. The two of them had actually gone into the inner hall.Seriously, what was up with that good-for-nothing?How did he know Miss Chloe Sommerset?!That was simply terrifying.Was he still the same useless cousin-in-law she had always known?“Sunset Villa? Why is Philip there?”Wynn glanced at the time. Why was Philip there at this time of the night?“Hold on a sec.”Lynn took a video of Philip and Chloe with her phone. It just so happened that Chloe was hugging Philip’s arm like a girl in love, her head on his shoulder and a look of happiness on her face.Of course, Lynn did not record the moment Philip shoved Chloe away. She

Smack!Philip slapped Chloe’s hand aside and said icily, “Don’t try my patience!”With that, Philip turned to leave.However, Chloe scoffed at his back, saying, “Do you know why I invited you here tonight?”“What do you mean?”Philip’s gaze turned cold. He spun around and glared at Chloe.Just then, Philip’s phone rang. It was a call from that man.“Spill it!”Philip barked harshly, his body tense and his heart pounding.That call could only mean one thing. Something must have happened to Wynn and Mila.“Young Master, the Young Madam and Miss Mila are safe. We just handled one wave of attackers.”The voice on the other end was that of a cold-blooded man. “They seem to be some local hooligans. They were at the hospital entrance, trying to kidnap the Young Madam.”“Understood.”Philip hung up and stared at Chloe, asking in a low and heavy voice, “Did you send them?”Chloe knew that her plan had failed. Well, she had only wanted to teach Wynn a lesson.She raised her chin a

Philip sighed and said, “Soon. I don’t want to make a move before going back home.”The man in the shadows said no more before leaving.The next day, Philip returned to the villa and saw that Martha had already taken over more than half of it.She had moved all the things from their old residence over, and she even told Philip with considerable pride, “What do you think? I did a good job decorating the place, didn’t I?”Philip glanced around for a while and then went upstairs for a look too. He soon realized that she had somehow turned the villa into what looked like a residential shack.She had even taken over the master bedroom he shared with Wynn.In fact, she even moved their wedding photo to the smaller bedroom downstairs.Martha saw how stormy his expression was when he came downstairs from the master bedroom. She immediately knew what she had done wrong, so she snuck a glance at Charles next to her.Charles ignored her and earned a glare from her.“Move all your things

Martha took a moment to process that and then instantly blew up. “What do you mean by that, Philip? Your uncle is inviting you to dinner, but you can’t be bothered? Do you think I want to invite you? If you want to say hi, come over yourself!”Martha then hung up in a huff.That Philip was getting more unreasonable by the day.Philip was a little taken aback too, but it seemed like he had no choice. He had to attend that night, after all.He gave Wynn a call, telling her he was going to pick her up from work that night.It just so happened that George had just bought him a car recently. It was nothing too fancy, just a BMW 5 Series. That would do for his purposes.That night, Philip drove his brand-new BMW and waited for Wynn outside her office building.When she saw the new car, Wynn froze for a long while too. She was both pleasantly surprised and confused. “Where did you get the money to buy this car?”Philip leaned on the car door, wearing shades. He looked quite dashing li

Wynn paused and looked at Philip suspiciously. She was very confused.Uncle Mont and his family had already insured them to such an extent, so why was Philip saying they would stay?Martha was enraged too. She had already stood up and prepared to leave, but she froze when Philip said that.Now she could not go or stay.Well, that was awkward.“What are you doing, Philip? Who told you to babble? Hurry up and apologize to your aunt and uncle?”Martha was left with nothing better to do, so she took her temper out on Philip as usual.The Renners were doing very well for themselves in Golden City. They were the richest and most powerful out of all their distant relatives.As a result, they took every chance they could get to insult the Johnstons.As the years passed, Martha grew gradually more intimidated by the Renners. These days, she was relatively tamer the moment she saw them. Although Charles used to be a section head, that was still nothing compared to what Mont Renner had

"Oh, a delivery boy? But that makes no sense, didn't he say his wife is a chairwoman or something?" said someone in surprise."A chairwoman? What does it matter if she's the chairwoman of some two-bit company?"Fern rudely called Philip out. "Stop stuffing your face like that, Philip. Can't you hear that your elders are talking to you?"She was proud and arrogant!Mont saw what she was doing and wanted to stop her, but eventually he just shook his head helplessly.He had already done enough to protect these poor relatives of his.To be honest, he also wanted to use this chance to wake Philip up. He wanted to show Philip just how far behind he had fallen so far the latter might buck up and go to work like a proper adult.It was so embarrassing for a man to live off his wife like that.Martha also glared at Philip, who was still preoccupied with his food. She yelled, "Philip, your aunt is talking to you! Say something!"Philip was embarrassing enough at home, but why did he have

“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
The First Heir Chapter 5750
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an

Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
The First Heir Chapter 5748
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra

This young lady was finally strong enough to protect the beasts. “The grudge between me and those people runs so deep that I’ll never forgive them, so you can forget about it. You look like a good person, so I won’t make things difficult for you. You should leave this dreadful place at once.” Philip smiled helplessly at her words. “Don't worry, I don't like the people from Deadly Arena either, and I have a grudge against them too. In fact, everything happened because of them, so you don’t have to worry about it. If you want to restore this mysterious island to a place where the beasts can live in peace, you should work with me.” These people were not easy to deal with. Although Philip could deal with them with his strength, he would have to pay a price for it. It would be best if he had help. Philip had many ideas. “I’m surprised that you have a grudge against them too. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let’s talk about this.” The woman smiled excitedly. “My name is Foxy. I
The First Heir Chapter 5746
Seeing the woman’s horror, Philip scratched his head awkwardly. He did not expect that her reaction would be so intense. “Don't worry, I'm not a good person.” After saying that, Philip sat down nonchalantly as if he was not worried about this powerful woman. Seeing Philip’s disregard for her, the woman was so angry that she could barely speak.“As you can see, I’m one of those humans,” Philip introduced himself. Philip had nothing to hide. His identity was no secret. “So, you’re one of those disgusting humans. You look quite strong. Since you found me, I’ll accept my fate. Just kill me if you want. There’s no need to insult me any further.” This woman was quite interesting. She jerked her chin up as if she was ready to let Philip kill her. Philip sighed at her reaction. Why was someone so eager to die? “I don’t want to kill you. I’m just curious about you. I just arrived at Deadly Arena recently,” Philip said to the other party sincerely. He was very curious about the

“You’re right, someone is controlling these beasts behind the scenes. Although I don’t know if the culprit is a powerful beast or a guild, they're not to be trifled with.” Philip did not hide this information but asked his men to take action. Since they were already here, they had to ensure their safety. No one would be exempted if anything happened. “You can join in the fight, but don’t try too hard. Just kill a few beasts and wait until I get to the bottom of this,” Philip said to his people. He was afraid that his men would work too hard but end up with nothing. Everyone nodded solemnly at Philip’s instructions. They quickly joined the battlefield and casually swung their weapons around, killing the arrogant beasts. Due to their strength, they easily crushed the beasts without much effort. As the fight reached its peak, Philip observed the source of the beast stampede. “Do you see that? The beasts are coming from that direction, and they’re clearly well-organized and d
The First Heir Chapter 5744
Philip noticed the change and frowned at the mysterious man, whose expression changed drastically. “This is bad. I’ve never heard this alarm before.” After saying this, he invited Philip to go with him to Deadly Arena to find out what happened. They arrived at Deadly Arena and saw everyone staring ahead nervously as if waiting for someone to speak. Philip’s guild members noticed his return and approached him nervously. Aslan ran up to Philip worriedly. “Philip, I asked around and found something wrong. Deadly Arena is a dangerous place because it’s situated next to the beast forest. This situation has happened from time to time in the past, but no one was bothered. They’d even organize teams to hunt the beasts and Deadly Arena would provide rewards for this.” Philip roughly understood the situation from Aslan’s explanation. Since Deadly Arena had been managing this place for so long, they had taken responsibility for the safety issue. Once the beasts appeared, they would ensu

Argent thought he had come up with a good plan to set Philip up, but he was the fool who was kept in the dark in the end. Philip smiled at Argent’s angry departure and invited the mysterious man to his room. Although Philip chatted with him earlier, he did not know much about him. Philip could tell that the man had concealed his true appearance. Philip was curious to see what would happen. The mysterious man noticed Philip’s anticipation but simply stared at him in silence. Philip wanted to know his identity and purpose for coming here. “I really think highly of you. It’d be best if you could join me.” He knew that Philip would not give in so easily, so his rationality told him to give up. “It’s impossible for me to join you, but I’m curious about your situation. I believe you have a grudge against that guy or you wouldn’t resent him so much.” Philip smiled at the guy. He knew that the grudge between the two was very deep. The mysterious man was surprised that Philip
