Chapter 1650
The First Heir
Charles tried to interrupt several times but was stopped by Marthaâs glare.
âMom, thatâs enough! What nonsense are you talking about?â
Wynn got anxious. She glared at Martha before looking at Philip and said, âPhilip, Iâm sorry. My
motherâ¦â
Philip smiled, shook his head helplessly, and said, âItâs fineâ¦â
After that, he said to Wynn, âI think itâs better to let them know about some things.â
Wynn was startled and fell silent. Her expression seemed torn with hesitation.
Charles and Martha panicked when they heard their words and saw their actions.
âWynnie, what is it? What are you hiding from me? Tell us!â Martha was anxious. She could tell that
Wynn was keeping something from her.
After thinking for a long time, Wynn said with hesitation, âMom, donât get too angry when I tell you.â
âOkay, fine, just tell me quickly.â Martha was flustered now.
Wynn looked at her father and said, âDad, Uncle Martin and Uncle Bernard embezzled Beacon and
even charged me with a false accusation of misappropriating the companyâs funds. A few days ago,
Lynn brought a lawyer with her and wanted me to hand over all the shares. Philip is the one who
helped me resolve the issue. Moreover, my two uncles also occupied First Palace by force. You canât
return to Riverdale anymore. Philip went back a few days ago to deal with the companyâs affairs.â
Boom!
Hearing this, both Charles and Marthaâs heads buzzed as if an explosion just occurred.
His second and third brothers actually did such a thing?
âWynnie, are you telling the truth?â Martha was extremely anxious.
âWas the company gone? Was the villa gone?â
âThat damned Martin Johnston and Bernard Johnston! How dare they take advantage when others
were down?â
Charles clutched his chest angrily, his breathing growing heavy as he fell on the sofa.
âDad, whatâs wrong with you?â Wynn was anxious.
Philip quickly stepped forward and patted Charles on his back, doing deep breathing exercises with
him. It took a long time for Charles to calm down. He drank a big glass of water in one gulp before
clenching his fists tightly while cursing, âI canât believe there are two thieves in the household! I didnât
treat them badly but they actually did such a beastly thing to me!â
Martha was angry and cursed, âCharles, just look at this! The company is gone and the house is gone.
I could tell that your two brothers werenât good people. I didnât expect them to strike out at us like this!â
Seeing his angry in-laws, Philip said lightly. âDad, Mom, donât worry about this. Iâve almost taken care of
the matter. I just need to tie up some loose ends. In a few days, Iâll get someone to send you back.â
Hearing this, Charles excitedly took Philipâs hands and said, âReally? Have you really solved it? What
about Martin and Bernard?â
Philipâs face went cold as he said, âDad, Iâve already taught them a lesson. If they refuse to repent, I
wonât be kind to them. Iâm here today to give you a heads-up about this. After all, theyâre your brothers
and Wynnâs uncles. If the two of them did anything unfavorable to any of you, I wonât go soft on them.â
