Chapter 1656
The First Heir
i
With a sneer, Philip said, âBring him up. You can handle him while I observe on the side.â
âYes, Young Master Clarke,â Hoyt replied.
A few minutes later, Liam approached with a face full of smiles. He stretched his hand out and said
fawningly, âOh, Director Luther, weâre finally meeting. Iâm full of excitement and anticipation.â
Hoyt smiled slightly and said, âManager Johnston, youâre too kind.â
Seeing that Hoyt was shaking hands with him, Liam immediately smiled. It seemed that there was a
chance for him to cooperate with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce today. Sure enough, Liam
Johnston was the cream of the crop and the future of the Johnston family. As long as they could
cooperate, the position of general manager in the company would be his!
However, with a flick of his eyes, he suddenly saw someone else in the office. The said person was
sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee in a dignified manner.
âPhilip Clarke? What is a wastrel like you doing here?â
Liamâs face changed as he looked displeased. There was a hint of coldness and contempt in the
corners of his eyes.
Why was this loser here?
Moreover, he was sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee so nonchalantly!
Did this guy know where this was?
This was the office of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerceâs director!
Philip chuckled, raised his hand to wave, and said with a smile, âHello, Liam.â
âCut the crap! Why are you here?!â Liam was immediately angry. His eyebrows were furrowed together,
and his eyes looked cold as he shouted.
Why was Philip acting so relaxed here?
âAlso, what gives you the right to be sitting down? And drinking coffee? Do you know where this is?
Stand up at once!â
Liam was annoyed. If Hoyt got angry because of this insolent Philip, neither of them would end well!
At this time, Hoyt was annoyed when he saw Liam treating Philip so rudely. He wanted to say
something to stop him but was stopped by a look from Philip.
Young Master Clarke was obviously not a simple person, so why would he pretend to be so low-key
and vulnerable?
Could this be a peculiar fetish of the rich?
Philip replied indifferently, âWhy canât I be here? I have something to discuss with Director Luther.â
âHaha!â
With eyes full of disdain, Liam sneered. âWhat right does a piece of trash like you have to speak to
Director Luther? Oh, I see, are you here to beg Director Luther to discuss cooperation on behalf of
Beacon? Philip, I can tell you that you stand no chance. This time, my dadâs Martin Pharmaceutical will
definitely win the cooperation rights with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. Your Beacon is done
for!â
After saying that, Liamâs eyes were full of mockery.
Philip was too naive. What could he do on his own?
Liam had not been in Riverdale recently but was running around in Uppercreek.
However, he knew what Philip had done in Riverdale, including the things he did to his dad.
He was angry! Livid!
How dare Philip hurt his dad and even try to bring Martin Pharmaceutical down? He must be
delusional! Philip did not reply, but a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
With an unhappy expression, Hoyt spoke up at this time and asked, âManager Johnston, are you here
to talk about cooperation?â
Liam immediately stepped forward, nodded fawningly, and said with a smile, âDirector Luther, youâre
very attentive. Martin Pharmaceutical is a large enterprise in Riverdale and weâre looking for like-
minded companies and chambers of commerce to cooperate with. The medical industry in Uppercreek
is well-developed and needs a large group like Martin Pharmaceutical to push out Uppercreekâs
medical services more effectively. Moreover, our ranking in Riverdaleâs medical industry is second to
none. This is our companyâs introduction and project cooperation agreement. Director Luther, please go
through it.â
After saying that, Liam handed over a stack of materials.
Hoyt just glanced at it and said, âAs far as I know, Beacon Group is in Riverdale, which is also a large
enterprise. Moreover, theyâre more famous than Martin Pharmaceutical and have been recognized by
the medical community.â
Liam quickly said, âDirector Luther, you may not be aware that Beacon is suffering from both internal
and external problems right now. Their overall efficacy is a mess. I was in Beacon for some time.
Theyâre facing some problems internally and have lost all funding. Furthermore, half of the companyâs
shareholders are gone, and even five to six investors have left. As for Martin Pharmaceutical, we have
plenty of talents and investors. Weâre definitely the best choice for the Uppercreek Chamber of
Commerce.â
Philip scoffed at this time. âDo you think Beacon Group is done for? Do you think that Martin
Pharmaceutical can reach a cooperation agreement with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce?â
