Semua Bab The First Heir: Bab 21 - Bab 30

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

"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

“Renner, why aren’t you apologizing to Mr. Clarke? Don’t you want your project to be approved?”Nick stopped smiling and began to weaponize his authority instead.Mont immediately panicked. Very reluctantly, he told Philip, “Sorry, I was rude to you just now. I hope you won’t hold it against your uncle.”Philip smiled. “No worries, Uncle Mont. We are family, after all.”Everyone burst out laughing at that, all to try and ease the tension in the air.Only Cindi and her mother continued to look constipated. They wanted to criticize Philip some more, but they never expected that good-for-nothing to know someone as impressive as Nick Cage.The others were shocked as well, but they hid their reaction behind awkward smiles.Just a second ago, that man was a worthless wretch just about anyone could criticize, but now they were saying that he was friends with Nick Cage, a director at the Land Registry. What a miraculous turn of events!Everyone returned to the room, but over the meal,

“What, now the two of you are ganging up to defend that wretch? Won’t you spare a thought for me at all?”Martha was furious and especially unhappy when she saw that Charles and Wynn were united against her.She was the master of this household.Philip was nothing!“Mom, could you stop being so unreasonable?”Wynn was flabbergasted. What was wrong with her mother now? Why did she have such a temper all of a sudden?”“I’m being unreasonable? Look at him, he’s just standing there! He could’ve at least asked to look at our wounds. We might seem fine at first, but what if we’re more badly injured somewhere you can’t see? All he’s doing is standing there. I bet he just wants us to die as soon as possible!”Martha said fiercely, her brows raised viciously and her expression icy. Her gaze shone with her rage at Philip.“Alright, Mom, Dad. I’ll go call a doctor now.”Philip had no choice. He turned and jogged off to get a doctor.Even Philip had no idea how he had survived three year

Had she been kidnapped?The driver threw away his instant noodles and walked over with a baseball bat.The sound of it against the floor triggered Martha’s every nerve.She yelled, “Don’t kill me! I’ll give you money, I’ll give you money!”However, when she saw the person after he got closer, she was completely stunned as if she had been struck by lightning.“You!” Martha screamed in terror.The driver in a black skintight outfit removed his cap and guffawed malevolently. He said, “Aunt Martha, I trust you’ve been well since we last met. It looks like you still remember me.”“Joel… Joel, did you get the wrong person? I asked you to teach Philip, that useless bum, a lesson. Please let me go. My head hurts. Take me to the hospital now.”Martha wailed. She was petrified.Joel was only two steps away from her. He squatted down, and she could see that his face was so thin he looked disfigured. His eyes were sunken, and he had dark eye circles. He looked like a ghost.“Shhh.” Joel
