Chapter 1668
The First Heir
Philip sneered as his eyes swept over the angry Bernard and Liam. Then, he pulled over a chair and
sat down before ordering the waiter to prepare a set of cutleries for him. He started to eat the food
calmly as he said, âArenât you supposed to discuss cooperation with the Uppercreek Chamber of
Commerce? Go on, continue your discussion.â
Hearing this, Bernard was stunned and a little confused. He frowned and asked, âWhat do you mean by
that? What does my discussion with the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce regarding a cooperation
have to do with you? Donât think that just because you know some people youâre invincible. This is
Uppercreek, and Director Luther is the one in charge of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. Who
do you think you are? Get out of here!â
Bernard was already controlling his patience and temper. He dared not go too far with Philip and only
wanted to drive him away.
However, the next scene caused Bernard and the others to pop their eyes wide open. It shocked them
to their cores!
Hoyt had stood up at this time and respectfully remained behind Philip. He bowed to him while
greeting, âYoung Master Clarke.â
Philip nodded, pointed with the knife in his hand, and said, âTell them who I am.â
Hoyt nodded and stood upright. Then, he looked at the suspicious gazes of Bernard and his people
while saying, âThis is the founder and sole owner of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce, Young
Master Philip Clarke.â
Hiss!
Everyone gasped!
Philip Clarke was actually the founder of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce?
How was that possible?
It must be false!
Bernardâs expression crumbled. He did not expect that even Hoyt Luther, whom he needed to treat with
deference, was not the biggest boss of the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. He was merely Philipâs
subordinate.
What the hell was wrong with this world?
Who on earth was Philip Clarke?
A huge entity like the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce was actually founded by Philip?
Bernardâs mind went blank. This situation was totally out of his expectation.
The cooperation partner that Martin Pharmaceutical wanted to reach an agreement with was actually
the chamber of commerce that belonged to Philip!
F*ck!
What was the point, then?
Liam looked as though he was on a terrifying roller coaster. At this moment, he opened his eyes wide
and stared at Philip, asking incredulously, âYouâre the founder of the Uppercreek Chamber of
Commerce? This is impossible. Youâre just a useless son-in-law of the Johnston family. Even if you
were rich back then, youâre already bankrupt. Who are you exactly?â
This was the question in everyoneâs mind.
Philip chuckled and replied, âIt doesnât matter who I am. What matters now is do you still want to talk to
me about cooperation? Iâm happy to give you a chance to do so.â
Smack!
This invisible slap landed directly on the faces of Bernard and the others!
What crap negotiation were they supposed to do now?
Bernard gritted his teeth and glared at Philip viciously. Then, he said coldly, âPhilip, donât be
complacent. I wonât give up on this matter. Donât think that Martin Pharmaceutical has no other way to
develop the market without the Uppercreek Chamber of Commerce. Letâs go!â
After that, Bernard turned around and was about to leave with his people. However, the men brought
by Philip blocked the doorway. Those burly bodies made the hearts of Bernard and the others tremble.
Bernardâs face darkened. Turning around, he glared at Philip coldly with an ugly expression as he
asked solemnly, âPhilip, what are you trying to do?â
Philip got up, wiped his mouth, and replied indifferently, âBernard Johnston, do you still remember the
warning I gave you last time?â
