The First Heir Chapter 529
Philip’s uncle?Wynn was taken aback for a moment before she smiled politely and courteously. “Uncle… Uncle Tim, please have a seat, I…”Wynn did not know what to say, so she was a little incoherent. She was at a loss about what to do.Tim took everything in his eyes and smiled kindly. “Has Philip never mentioned me before?”“Yeah.”Wynn smiled awkwardly and brushed her hair to the back of her ears.Philip actually had an uncle. She had never heard him mention that before.Also, looking at this uncle’s poise, he was not a simple person. He even had bodyguards following him around.Of course, Philip was the young master of Clarke Group from Capital City. His family background was not so simple.However, what was the purpose of this uncle’s sudden visit?At Wynn’s expression, Tim guessed what Wynn must be thinking, so he said, “Don’t worry. I’m just here to visit you. Philip has worked hard to keep everything from us. The little girl has suffered much at such a young age.”Whi
The First Heir Chapter 530
Wynn stood up and stared at Philip with eyes wide open. Tears were forming at the corners.He finally confessed.“How long were you planning on keeping it from me?” Wynn asked angrily.Philip hugged her waist and said, “Not for long. I already planned to tell you in the next few days. It’s because too many things have been happening at home recently. I couldn’t tell you everything. I thought that once I’ve settled everything, I’d bring you and Mila home.”Back to Arcadia Island. Philip did not tell her the entire truth.Wynn assumed it was the Clarke family in Capital City.“Really? Do you need help?” Wynn asked, worried about Philip.Her husband was getting more mysterious now, always doing things that she was not aware of.Philip touched her hair fondly and smiled tenderly as he said, “It’s fine, I can handle it. But don’t tell your parents about my identity. I’m afraid they will…”Wynn naturally understood what he meant and said in mock anger, “You still dare to bring thi

“Slap her mouth!”Tim ordered coldly. The chill reflected in his eyes was as fathomless as 3,000 feet of ice!No one could insult the Clarke family, and no one could insult the future heir of the Clarke family!Hark!Two burly bodyguards behind Tim walked out. Without another word, one man dragged Martha, who was struggling and hissing, from behind Charles and held her in a death grip.“You, what are you doing? This is my home. If you dare to touch me, I’ll call the police!”Martha got a fright. She was struggling and kicking out wildly.However.The other person waved his hand!Smack!A crisp slap resounded throughout the hall of the villa.Now, Martha glared at Tim and shouted, “You dare to let someone beat me? Do you know where this is? This is Longford Park, the territory of the Longford family! This villa is mine! I’ll call the police to arrest you!” Martha yelled like a shrew, her cheeks red and swollen. “Continue,” Tim leaned back on the sofa and said coldly. Sm

“Martha Yates! You’re simply incorrigible! I’ve had enough of you! Don’t think I don’t know what wicked things you’ve done! Things have progressed to this stage, can’t you face the reality?”Charles roared and the whole living room resounded with his angry voice.Martha was stunned.She had never seen her husband in such a rage before.“You… You dare to hit me? You hit me!”Martha went mad and attempted to scratch Charles.Charles was getting a headache, so he shoved Martha away, entered the study alone, and locked the door from the inside.Martha sobbed and howled as she sat on the ground, beating her chest and wailing.“Damn you, Charles Johnston, you’ve finally admitted it. You despise me for being old and dislike me for being unreasonable, right?”Martha wept and bawled. “Divorce! I want to divorce you! I can’t stay in this family any longer! You and Wynn are turncoats, siding with Philip all the time. What’s so good about that wretch? He just has a bit of money now. Who k

“I don’t know, it just feels weird that such an important person has personally come to the company to discuss terms with you.”Philip muttered to himself. He knew that with Wynn’s personality, should Blake try to threaten her in any way, things would not go well for either of them.“What’s wrong with that? Beacon has worked with the Michaels for several years now, and their chairperson is personally dropping by to visit. Perhaps it’s because there’s some large-scale project involved. If we make it work, that’ll mean a raise for all of us.”The male colleague said with a chuckle.Ignorance was bliss, huh.While Philip was still fretting about how to handle Blake Michaels, the head of the marketing department Minerva Cain was already approaching Blake.All smiles, she said, “Mr. Michaels! You’re here earlier than expected. We’re still in the middle of preparing for your arrival.”Minerva was a professional, after all, and she chose her words very wisely. The fiery-red short skirt

“According to our current contract, Michaels Corp will only take 30% of the profit. At the board meeting, we decided that if we don’t pull out, we’ll have to pour a lot more resources into this project. That would mean an investment far beyond anything else we’ve risked so far, so we’ll need more potential profit to balance that risk.”Blake was very adept at reading the room, and his next words immediately shut down the chaos that had erupted in the conference room. “50%! We want 50% of the ROI, and we require Beacon to give us the patent and data for the new drug.”“Impossible! That’s not how business works! 50% is higher than we can afford. As for the data, we already agreed that it will only ever belong to Beacon!”Wynn’s expression turned cold and her tone sharp. “You’re violating the contract without reason!”Wynn was now extremely unfriendly to Blake. He was clearly trying to get everything for nothing!Blake’s eyes twinkled. He never expected Wynn to agree off the bat eith

Wynn had no way of knowing, and she did not have the time to wonder either.Blake chuckled coolly and stood up, patting down his suit. “You have much to learn, Madam Johnston. 40% is your bottom line, but 50% is mine. Again, take your time to reconsider. I’m in no hurry to get an answer.”Blake stood up and left.When Blake walked out of the conference room and passed by the marketing department's office, he suddenly heard a call behind him.“Come quick, Philip!” a colleague shouted.Philip had had nothing to do, so he went to the washroom, but then he heard someone calling his name as soon as he walked through the door.Blake frowned deeply, his face instantly ice-cold. He looked at Philip’s smiling face and imprinted that image into his heart!That was the man! That was Philip Clarke, the one his son had mentioned!The man who had repeatedly interrupted his plans.They truly were enemies, fated to meet. Philip could feel the intense hostility emanating from the man behind hi
The First Heir Chapter 536
At around three or four that afternoon, the company suddenly called for a management meeting, leaving everyone worried.To make things worse, someone somehow leaked the news that the Michaels were pulling out of their deal!“Damn it! Who leaked it? Who spread the rumor? Find out!”In the chairwoman’s office, Wynn was so furious that her body shook with rage. “Also, get every member of the management to the conference room for a meeting later!”Nina had never seen her boss so angry before, and she said hurriedly, “Yes, ma’am. I’ll get right to it.”With that, she hastily left the chairwoman’s office and stood outside the door to catch her breath.“What’s the matter, Nina?”That sudden voice startled Nina into looking up. It was Philip.“Why did you come up here?” she asked.Philip scratched his head and glanced at the chairwoman’s office, saying bewilderedly, “Madam Johnston asked me to drop by.”Nina nodded and suddenly reminded him, “Be careful what you say later. She’s rath
