Chapter 1289
The First Heir
Philip looked cold and stern as he took a deep breath before asking gruffly, âWhere is she now?â
âMadam Yates is having dinner with someone at Whitebird Restaurant,â Master Bell replied respectfully
with a trace of worry in his eyes.
âDinner? With who?â Philip asked again.
âItâs your old friend, Juan Parker,â Master Bell replied.
When Philip heard this name, he understood everything at once.
It turned out Juan was the one who had secretly arranged for Martha to come to Uppercreek just so
they could team up and ruin Philipâs reputation?
Looking at the sky outside the window, Philipâs eyes were full of solemn chills.
He turned to Master Bell and said, âLetâs go to Whitebird Restaurant.â
Master Bell nodded hurriedly and followed Philip out of the hotel.
At the entrance of the hotel, a Rolls-Royce and a fleet of Mercedes-Benz vehicles had been waiting for
a long time. Master Bellâs people stood on two sides, and seeing Philip approaching, they all bowed
respectfully and greeted, âYoung Master Clarke.â
Once they got into the cars, they quickly headed toward Whitebird Restaurant.
After Martha left the hotel, she went straight to Whitebird Restaurant.
Juan had already set up a celebration banquet here.
The two of them were chatting with joy and laughter at this moment.
âAunt Martha, weâve succeeded this time! Tomorrow, weâll strike while the iron is still hot and get Wynn
to divorce that scummy Philip Clarke. Then, you can kick him out of the Johnston household!â
Juan suggested, his face full of excitement.
Unexpectedly, the plan this time went so smoothly.
Haha!
Philip finally lost!
This time, Juan was going to trample on him and show him the gap between them!
âYes, I think this is the best plan.â
Martha was ecstatic, and her face was full of joy as she looked at the agreement on the table. This was
all of Philipâs assets!
Although she did not know exactly how much he had, he still owned Milanelson Angel Investment
Group at the very least.
Martha had gotten someone to look into it before. It was a large group worth at least tens of billions!
Although the assets belonged to the group, based on the number of shares, Philip should be worth at
least billions!
In other words, she was a billionaire now!
Juan nodded and said, âAunt Martha, I think we should let Wynn know about this and let her realize
what a beast Philip truly is. This way, Wynn can give up all hope on him.â
Martha turned to look at Juan and said with a smile, âJuan, I know exactly how you feel about Wynn. To
be honest, Iâm fond of you too. Since youâve brought up this matter, Iâll definitely help you.â
Juan was very excited when he heard this and said, âThank you, Aunt Martha.â
Martha tutted and said, âHey, silly boy, why are you still calling me âAuntâ now?â
When Juan heard this, he was even happier and immediately changed his words. âMother-in-law.â
âGood,â Martha responded happily.
Just then, the door of the private room opened and the burly man and young woman from before
walked in.
âMr. Parker, you called for us?â
The brawny man was a ruffian Juan found. He was quite well-known locally.
Meanwhile, the young woman was found by a trustee in the hospital. Her mother was suffering from
uremia and needed a lot of money to cover hospital bills.
A person with this sort of background was the easiest to control.
âThis 300,000 is for you. Take it.â Juan motioned to the burly man.
There was a cloth bag on the table.
The man stepped forward, opened it, and found that it was full of money. He grinned and said, âThank
you, Mr. Parker. Iâll do my best for you in the future too.â
Juan waved his hand, and his gaze fell on the cowering timid little girl. He took out a card, motioned the
waiter to hand it to her, and said, âThis is an extra reward for you. After all, youâre still young. Take the
money and bring your mother with you to leave Uppercreek. Never let me see you again, understand?â
The young woman took the card with red eyes.
For her motherâs sake, she could only as she was told.
âOkay, Iâll get someone to make arrangements for you.â Juan waved his hand and motioned them to go
out.
The burly man and the young woman looked at each other before turning around and leaving.
Juan laughed with Martha, feeling exhilarated.
When he imagined the sight of Philip kneeling in front of them desperately while begging for mercy, he
felt overjoyed.
However!
An unexpected scene happened!
The burly man and the young girl who had left earlier returned to the private room with shocked faces.
âWhatâs the matter? Who told you to come back?!â
Juan was furious and banged the table.
However, immediately after, he saw a group of people standing at the door.
Philip Clarke!
Yes, Philipâs face was extremely dark at this moment as he walked into the room with Master Bell and
the others.
Martha was so scared that she exclaimed, âPhilip? Why are you here?â
Oh no!
How could this wastrel appear here?
Had he discovered anything?
Philip glanced at Martha coldly before turning his gaze to Juan whose face was as cold as ice. He then
pulled a chair out and sat down.
He took out a cigarette and lit it, inhaling it deeply before letting out clouds of smoke.
Silence.
No one spoke.
