The First Heir Chapter 718
Amelia hit him playfully and teased, saying, “Silly you. You’re Charles’ brother. Do you think they can chase you away? If they really do, we’ll just kick up a big fuss and let the entire neighborhood know. In the end, they’ll lose their dignity. So, how about it?” Bernard hesitated. However, when he glanced at the villa again, he said with determination, “Okay, you talk to Martha and I’ll talk to my brother.” The two reached an agreement and rushed into the living room. Coincidentally, Martha came out of the bedroom at this time all dressed up fashionably like a lady. She smiled as she said, “Oh, it’s Amelia and Bernard. You’re here already? Come here and have a seat. Leave your things there. I’ll get the nanny to handle it.” Amelia knew that Martha was a very prideful person, so she quickly paid compliments, “Sister Martha, you have a nanny too? I’m so envious.” Martha was very happy when she heard those words. She sat on the sofa in a little cloak and put on a pretentious
The First Heir Chapter 719
This group of people were dumbfounded and looked at Philip in a daze with a myriad of expressions on their faces. What did this brat say? Did he tell them to get lost? “Hahaha, I laughed so hard. Sister Martha, what does your son-in-law mean? He wants to kick us all out.” Amelia mocked, saying, “Martha, didn’t you say this villa belongs to you? How can he chase us out like this?” She was fanning the flames. What Martha could not tolerate the most was being looked down upon by her family, especially in front of this third branch. She was used to acting all high and mighty and had always been superior in front of the third branch. Now that Philip was speaking to her in this manner, how could she endure it? “Philip, I dare you to repeat what you just said!” Martha was angry as she pointed at Philip’s nose and scolded him. Did Philip not realize that he needed to show her some respect? She was his mother-in-law, after all. If he did not show her some respect, how coul

A bunch of ignorant fools! ‘I, Philip Clarke, have nothing but money!’ “No? Don’t think I don’t know your current situation. Juan told me that your family’s bankrupt! You’re a pauper now, and who knows if you’re in debt too!” Martha roared, her voice resounding throughout the living room. Amelia and her family stared blankly, puzzled at the news. Bankrupt? Debt? Philip raised his brows, his eyes cold and stern. Juan could really resort to just about any method. Regardless. “You’ll find out in a minute,” Philip said mildly without further explanation. Everyone looked at each other in bafflement. “Fine, I want to see what tricks you have up your sleeve,” Amelia said disdainfully. What could a wastrel like him do? About ten minutes later, Philip received a text message from George and said to everyone, “Let’s go.” “Go where?” Martha’s face was somber. She had no idea what Philip was up to. “Don’t you want to know who that Rolls-Royce belongs to?” Philip ask
The First Heir Chapter 721
What the hell was going on here? The richest man in Riverdale was actually standing respectfully in front of Philip and even called him Mr. Clarke! This completely toppled their inherent impression of Philip! Martha was still fine since she already knew that there was something unusual about Philip. However, she was still surprised at this scene! As for Amelia and the others, they were so shocked that their jaws dropped. With their eyes widened, they could not speak for a while! They could still recall vividly their sarcasm and irony toward Philip just now. At this moment, they were flustered. Over there, Philip’s gaze swept over them coldly as he said, “Carry on your discussion. How do you plan to handle this car? Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, or Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays?” Like a basin of cold water, his words splashed on them and extinguished their interest instantly. Amelia was still a little unconvinced and muttered, “What the heck… The car
The First Heir Chapter 722
After bustling around for a long time, Amelia then brought Bernard down from the second floor. They ate fruits in the living room and watched the super large LCD TV. Lynn had also tidied up and was sitting in the living room while playing with her phone. After taking pictures of the villa, she received many likes on her social media. At this time, Martha just came back. She had stepped out to answer a call just now. Her mood was noticeably better. “How is it? Are you done packing?” Martha asked. Amelia quickly pulled Martha to sit down, saying, “Sister-in-law, I really have to thank you so much this time. Otherwise, we’d have no place to live. Also, Bernard and I have a request. You must agree to it.” With that, Amelia went down on her knees. Martha got a fright and hurried to pull her up, but Amelia was fiercely determined as she said, “Sister-in-law, don’t try to pull me. I’ll only get up if you agree to our request.” Martha quickly responded, “Okay, fine. Get up firs

Martha was terrified. She could not lose the villa. It was her life. “Philip, what are you doing?” Martha asked in a panic although she had already guessed the answer. On the sidelines, Bernard and Amelia also pointed at Philip sharply and cursed, “Martha, just look at this wastrel. He’s actually treating us like this. Is he in charge of this family?” These words annoyed Martha. As such an overbearing person, how could she accept it when others thought Philip was the head of the family instead? Martha simply sat on the ground, beat her chest, and cried out, “I was really blind to have allowed Wynnie to marry you. You’re nothing but an unscrupulous turncoat who ate and lived in my house for the past three years. Now, you even want to kick your mother-in-law out of the house. Where’s the justice in this?” Martha kicked up a big fuss, and her voice was loud, irritating the ears of those who heard her. The security guards who rushed in also exchanged glances with each other, at

The manager took one look at them before he went to deal with it. It was done in just a moment. Martha’s name was no longer on the certificate. In other words, from now on, First Palace had nothing to do with Martha Yates! Martha was completely dumbfounded. Everything was gone. It was retribution. “You son of a b*tch! You actually did this to me! I’m your mother-in-law. Are you trying to drive me to my death?! No way, you must add in my name again. This is my villa! My daughter bought it. This kept man deceived my daughter!” Martha went berserk and kicked up a big fuss in the sales department. She sat on the ground as she wailed and sobbed, unconcerned about her image at all. Philip just stared at Martha coldly and said, “Have you forgotten what Wynn said? I bought this villa myself!” With that said, Philip left the office. Martha continued her rant for a while longer before she ran back in disarray. It was already done, so she could only try to restore it. How

Mila was not afraid of strangers and greeted Levi. Levi also showed a gentle side and played with her. Martha glanced at them a couple of times before glaring at Mila, then turned to Anne and said coldly, “Bring her upstairs.” Anne knew that Martha disliked Mila, so she quickly carried her upstairs. “Uncle, can I play with you again later?” Mila’s teeth twinkled as she waved her little arms toward Levi. Levi smiled with a wink, made a gesture with his hands, and said, “Sure.” “Levi, are you married?” Martha suddenly asked with a broad grin as if she was his mother. “Oh, not yet,” Levi responded with a smile. The two burly bodyguards behind him stood not too far away. Martha was ecstatic at his reply. He was not married. That was great news. Martha began to make plans. It was impossible to get Philip and Wynn to divorce, but Lynn was still available. They were members of the Johnston family. If they got together, she could still benefit from it. While she was t

“No one ever comes to my place. You must be outsiders.” Celeste was curious, wondering who Philip was. Celeste knew about the four unique races, but Philip’s appearance and form did not fit any of them. “You’re right. I’m an outsider. I wanted to know something, so I came to the forest. It’s best if you can give me an answer. I don’t intend to harm anyone. If you can answer my questions, I’ll leave and remove the curse on you as well,” Philip persuaded her. He felt that the woman was quite sincere, different from what he imagined. In that case, there was no need to make things difficult for her. Besides, he did not feel a murderous vibe in her, so she had probably never done anything bad. Philip had no reason to make things difficult for someone who liked to hide and sing. “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I know, but I don’t really know much. I usually stay in my own territory and have no contact with the outside world. Even the other races don't know of my existence.” Rabbit

Philip felt that there was no problem with his hearing. Someone was humming a song, and the tune sounded very strange and spooky in the dark forest. Rabbit frowned and nodded. He also heard the strange sound and was scared. “Who has nothing better to do but to sing here?” Rabbit nervously grabbed the corner of Philip's clothes, afraid that Philip would leave him behind. Philip shook his head. According to the others, no one would come here for no reason. Due to various dangers in the forest, they would only wander around the edge without seeking trouble in the depths. In that case, the abrupt singing voice was very strange, indeed. “Philip, don't be nervous. Stay calm.” Rabbit's voice was trembling. Although Rabbit kept telling Philip to stay calm, he was already freaking out, so scared that he nearly wanted to run away. Philip knew Rabbit’s character, so he did not comment. He simply observed the surroundings and listened carefully to the sound, which was so ethereal tha

Philip took Puffy along and quickly arrived in a forest where the other races usually hunted, so they should not face any danger here. As soon as Philip left, a woman appeared in the corner and looked in the direction where Philip left with a conflicted look on her face. “Should I follow him?” Ariadna had been left behind in the snake people’s village. She had no friends, and no one paid her any attention. Sometimes, they even displayed their ridicule and disdain for her. She did not get good treatment even though she was a junior from the outside world. In desperation, Ariadna decided to follow Philip. Unexpectedly, she saw Philip with a cute kid the next second. Ariadna was surprised to see that Philip had such a big and cute child. “Wait, that kid looks a little weird.” Due to the distance, Ariadna could not see what the kid looked like, but his color and body shape seemed different from that of normal people. After much deliberation, Ariadna decided to tag along, co

“I’ll look around and find out what’s going on. Don’t worry about me. Look for Ronan if anything crops up.” Philip decided to leave Ronan in charge. Ronan did not object. He knew that Philip wanted to train him. He rarely interacted with others, so he had poor social skills. He had improved with Philip’s help, but his skills were still nothing compared to Philip’s subordinates. He was deeply moved by the opportunity that Philip had given him. “Sure enough, heroes will emerge from the youth. You two will have a bright future!” Wren said excitedly. Philip did not comment. After a few pleasantries, he wandered around with Rabbit. Selma and her people had no time for Philip. They finally found their predecessors, so they had many questions to solve. Philip was most interested in getting to the bottom of this mysterious place. It felt more like a cage designed to trap them. It was devoid of rich energy and other resources suitable for them. What was the purpose of the person b
The First Heir Chapter 6197
A woman like Arachne who pursued her own happiness was usually frowned upon. A person who was willing to sacrifice for the family would be recorded in history forever. Weaver patted Ariadna's shoulder expectantly, believing she could carry it out. After all, he did not know what had happened between them earlier. Everything was a big mistake. “I don’t think I can complete this difficult task,” Ariadna said nervously, afraid that Weaver would put too much hope on her. Ariadna knew that Rabbit had a grudge against her. Moreover, some of her actions had offended Philip, who might ignore her because of that. Thinking of this, she wanted to decline the task, but Weaver was very firm about his decision. “As the holy maiden of the family, this task is yours. No one else can do it but you.” Weaver put Ariadna on a high pedestal, so all the pressure fell on her. Weaver left with the others, leaving the poor holy maiden behind. Arachne looked at Ariadna resentfully. The opportunity

“You never considered the consequences when you tried to take advantage of us. We brought them here, and they have the right to choose. Don't think about taking advantage.” Philip nodded at Fitz’s attitude. Sure enough, he liked this earnest man and was happy with his point of view. “If you want something, you need to pay a price for it. As I mentioned, I’m a businessman, so I prefer fair trade. I’m more than happy if you want to discuss a deal with me.” In fact, they had reached an agreement before the spider people arrived. Philip would not help the other three races for free, but he was not bad enough to charge them fees either. However, the spider people were different. Not to mention that Philip had a bad impression of them, but Rabbit’s grudge also remained unavenged. The spider people scowled at Philip’s disrespect, which was simply outrageous. The other races laughed gloatingly. The spider people had always been arrogant and domineering, preventing their developme

“I'm afraid that the snake people will strike a deal with him and monopolize everything.” The old man anxiously led everyone in the direction of the snake people. They could not miss the chance to share a piece of the pie. However, he did not intend to tell his people about it. The other two races no longer existed in the outside world, so it did not matter if they could not leave. It would be best to let their legends fade away in history. That idea was very selfish. Just when he thought he could grab all the benefits by stealth, the snake people shared the information without keeping it a secret. However, the snake people only shared the news with the other two races. They did not have a good impression of the spider people and even had the idea of leaving them behind. When the spider people hurried over, they found a crowd. They saw not only the young ones of the snake people but also those from the other two races. The other two races were the turtles and magpies. Just li

The old man felt annoyed when he saw the two women not getting along. He knew that the holy maidens of the family would face a lot of struggles. Ambitious women would try every means to cause trouble just to destroy the status of the holy maidens. By doing so, they could find ways to replace them. It was an underhanded method but effective. After all, not everyone could cope with the distinguished status of the holy maiden. One mistake could be fatal. Therefore, a holy maiden had to be prideful and flawless, just like an untainted and pure white lotus. The old man nodded thoughtfully. He did not think that Arachne looked like the holy maiden, and his suspicions were confirmed. She was not the holy maiden at all. Actions spoke louder than words. Arachne did not carry a regal bearing, so she would not act like a queen even if she wore a crown. At first, the old man wondered why the spider family would choose someone so unbefitting for the role of the holy maiden. Now that
The First Heir Chapter 6193
At this point, an old man walked over. Although they usually maintained their true form, they sometimes took on a human form. Unlike the snake people who did not look very different between the two forms, the spider people looked outrageous in their true forms. “Are you one of the younger generation from outside?” The old man was curious to see the younger children's arrival at this place today. As someone who could not wait to make an impression, Arachne rushed forward and began to introduce herself. In short, Arachne was gradually taking over Ariadna’s position. Although the others were annoyed, they did not say anything because Arachne was really putting in some effort. There was no point in arguing about such things. The most important thing was to remove their curse. The old man was very excited and could not wait to welcome them. “This is wonderful. It has been thousands of years since we saw an outsider!” His eyes gleamed with excitement. “Tell me how you got in,” he
