Chapter 1378
The First Heir
Only a handful of people knew about this plan.
It was because this plan was too earth-shattering, tantamount to undermining the foundation of the
main family!
If Roger Clarke found out about it, he would no longer tolerate the branch family!
Connor nodded and said, âGet the manpower ready. Once we have the results, for better or worse, we
must capture that b*tch!â
âYes, Grandpa!â Levi nodded in response.
Back to Fulton Hash. He was currently talking to someone over the phone with a respectful look in his
eyes, saying, âMy lord, I have something to report to you. Connor Clarke and Levi Clarke of the branch
family have made a move against the young madam. Their aim is most likely the door.â
An old voice sounded from the other end of the phone, and from his tone, the man seemed to have
known about it for a long time. He said without any emotional fluctuations, âI know. Theyâre still too
anxious, so eager to get their hands on the door and to achieve their unspeakable motives. But they
forgot one thingâthe door is not accessible to just anyone.â
âMy lord, do you have a countermeasure?â Fulton asked.
âI already began making preparations from when Philip was born. Iâm just waiting for the branch family
to make their move. However, I didnât expect that they would hold back for such a long time only to
make a move on my little grandson.â
On the other side of the phone, Roger was standing on the observatory of the white castle in the center
of Arcadia Island. His eyes were slightly narrowed and his tone sounded dull.
Behind him were eight members of the Shadow Squadron.
In the scene in front of him, a huge cruise ship was slowly reaching port.
Giada Wallis walked down from the cruise ship.
Roger took one glance and continued, âYou should stay in Uppercreek for the next few days to ensure
the safety of Philip, my daughter-in-law, as well as my little granddaughter.â
âYes, my lord.â
Fulton said. Then, he suddenly thought of something, and asked, âMy lord, is it a boy in young
madamâs stomach?â
Roger was smiling as he said, âYes, I got someone to check it and itâs a boy. Only we know about it for
now, but looking at the timing, Wynn and Phil should be going for a check-up soon. After the results
come out, thereâll definitely be some secret forces who want to make a move against Wynn. Iâll send
some Shadow Guards over.â
âOkay, I understand,â Fulton replied and put away his phone.
Meanwhile, Philip had already returned to the hotel.
However, before he could enter the door, several men rushed out from the doorway and knelt on the
ground. Their faces were bruised and swollen.
âMr. Clarke, Iâm sorry, itâs all due to our incompetence! Madam and Miss have been kidnapped!â
The burly guy in the lead lowered his head, his body full of injuries. He had obviously been through a
fierce fight.
Behind them, several men with broken arms and legs were also being helped out from the hotel.
Hearing this, Philip frowned, his body suddenly full of chills. He barked, âWhatâs going on?â
The man in the lead quickly replied, âThe other party displayed extraordinary skills. They should be
people from the national martial arts circle. Moreover, the middle-aged man in the lead also left a harsh
message, asking you to meet him in Car Wash City in Westside. If you donât go there by 8 p.m. tonight,
heâll toss Madam and Miss into the river.â
Boom!
Suddenly, Philip exploded with raging killing intent!
His eyes were red, his fists were clenched, and he bellowed, âWhatâs the other partyâs name?â
âWylan⦠Jensen,â the man replied.
