The First Heir

‘Wait for my signal. I don’t like the Yates.’ Philip replied to the message in secret and put away his phone.
George was over at the chairman’s office in Apex Group. After he got the message, he lifted his eyebrow and asked his
secretary to announce this.
As long as Philip opened his mouth, he would make sure to bankrupt the Yates.
These blind fools must have crossed the young master.
“Philip, what are you doing?” Wynn noticed Philip had been playing with his phone the entire time, which is why she asked
curiously.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Professor Turner told me he’ll arrange Mila’s surgery for next Wednesday,” Philip replied.
“Really?” Wynn was excited. She grabbed onto Philip’s hand emotionally.
Mila was her everything. Which mother would want to see their own child suffer?
“Yeah.” Philip patted the back of Wynn’s hand lovingly.
“Hey, did you hear that the Oasis development project in the south of Riverdale was developed by the richest man in Riverdale,
George Thomas? Ted’s making all of us proud by taking that project!”
“Right? I heard that the boss behind this project is a world-class nouveau riche. He’s f*cking loaded!”
“Ted’s future is going to be so bright. It’s obvious that Bob wants to train him as the heir of the third generation. We have to curry
more favors with him.”
The group started chattering excitedly. Their conversation was starting to get heated.
They wanted to be Ted Yates so badly.
“Hey, what’s wrong with that useless bum? I heard that the Yates don’t like him that much.”
Suddenly, someone shifted the conversation to Philip.
“You don’t know? Bob’s granddaughter, which is Wynn over there, got pregnant before marriage and the child belongs to that
spineless coward. You should know that this is something extremely shameful in the Yates Village. She ruined the family name

and isn’t chaste at all!”
“No wonder! So from what you said, Wynn is not a good woman too. Is she a... you know? She’s so shameless for getting
pregnant before getting married.”
In a flash, everyone started looking over. Philip frowned from their gazes.
These people were so slanderous.
Especially those middle-aged women over there. Their verbal abuse would make anyone feel agitated!
Wynn lowered her head even more.
Three years ago, she became the shame of the family because of this matter. Everyone started pointing fingers at her.
Today, these people were digging out the past again. They were stabbing her in the heart with knives.
Philip’s face fell as he squeezed Wynn’s hand. Then, he got up and walked over to the middle-aged women who were gossiping.
He carried a chair over and sat down. He chuckled and said, “Aunties, do you know what kind of people will die the most horrible
deaths?”
When the middle-aged women saw Philip sitting at their table, they felt a little guilty.
However, they were not scared. They rolled their eyes and shook their heads. Then, they raised their eyebrows and looked at
him in contempt.
They had already seen everything just now. Philip was just a good-for-nothing.
“You’re just a piece of trash. What right do you have to sit here and talk to us?” One of the women snorted.
Smash!
Philip took a wine bottle and smashed it on the ground before yelling angrily, “Do you not f*cking know what’s good for you?! If
not for the fact that you’re my seniors, would you believe that I’ll slap each and every one of you?
“You can put anything in your mouth but don’t you dare spout rubbish. Watch your mouths. If not, don’t blame me for not going
easy on you! Nosy b*tches!”

Philip’s face was cold, but flames were burning in his eyes.
All of the middle-aged women on the table were horrified by Philip’s imposing manner. They shut their mouths while feeling guilty.
They did not dare to say anything more.
However, when he turned his back to them, they started cursing Philip and Wynn furiously. They wanted so badly to beat them
up.
Philip went back to his seat.
Wynn rolled her eyes at Philip and said, “Why did you go against them? They know nothing.”
Philip smiled lazily and said, “They were spouting rubbish. They need to be taught a lesson. You’re Philip Clarke’s wife. I’ll rip out
the mouths of whoever dares to bully you.”
Wynn’s heart was warm and fuzzy when she heard Philip saying that, despite it not being something pleasant to hear.
Jess was sitting on the other side. She glanced over at Philip.
It seemed that this man adored his wife very much.
He was not that bad.
Back to the main hall.
At this moment, everyone was talking about the Oasis development project heatedly. Naturally, Ted became the center of
everyone’s attention.
Bob was greedy, so he had drunk a bit too much.
At the same time, a middle-aged man ran into the main hall from the outer courtyard. His face was excited and frantic.
“O-Old master! Something big happened!” The middle-aged man was Bob’s secretary. He was responsible for all the external
affairs of the Yates’ businesses. He was the one who made announcements if anything happened.
Bob frowned and said unhappily, “Why are you being so frantic?”

The middle-aged man did not even wipe away his sweat before saying, “One... One billion! The company just got an investment
of one billion bucks!”
Suddenly!
The room fell silent.
No one could believe their ears.
An investment of one billion bucks?
