Chapter 1694
The First Heir
âReally?!â Henley said excitedly. Would Philip really let him off so easily?
He quickly asked again, âPhilip⦠No, Mr. Clarke, are you really willing to let me off?â
Philip nodded.
âIn that case, about our familyâs coal mineâ¦â Although Henley was happy that Philip was willing to let
him off and could not wait to flee right this instant, if the matter with the coal mine was unresolved, he
would still be dead after he returned home.
As he said that, he also looked at his father who was standing respectfully on one side.
He had never seen his father groveling like this before.
âThe closure of your familyâs coal mine can be lifted. However, there are conditions.â Philip glanced at
Clara when he said that.
If this woman was not taught a lesson, she would not remember what had happened today. Although
Henley had slapped Clara just now, in Philipâs opinion, it was still not enough.
âWhat are the conditions? Just let me know. As long as I can do it, Iâll give you my promise! However
much money it takes!â Henley thought Philip was asking for money and quickly expressed his goodwill.
Philip shook his head, slowly pointed at Clara, and said, âThe person you brought with you today kept
provoking and humiliating my wife. What do you think the solution is?â
When these words came out, Claraâs heart thumped!
âOkay, I got it!â Henley quickly said.
At this juncture, the most crucial thing was to protect himself. Who cared about the woman he had just
picked up?
For Henley, as long as he had money, he could easily get another woman!
Tints, he stepped forward, grabbed Clara by her clothes, and cursed viciously, âYou stinking b*tch, my
family almost went bankrupt because of you! Youâre a jinx!â
Smack, smack!
Henley slapped her back and forth until her makeup was all ruined. Her face immediately swelled up.
Clara was all dizzy from being slapped when she heard Henley saying, âListen up, I have nothing to do
with you from now on. Get away from me as far as you can. Donât ever let me see you again. Every
time I see you, Iâll hit you once, you hear?â
Then, Henley said to Philip fawningly, âMr. Clarke, do you think this is okay?â
Philip smiled and nodded.
âHenley, youâ¦â Clara covered her bruised face and looked at Henley with grief.
Immediately after, she turned her head to Philip and stared at him viciously with her eyes so wide that
the whites of her eyes bulged and her pupils constricted.
The veins on her forehead throbbed with anger as she yelled hysterically, âPhilip Clarke, what right do
you have? Youâre nothing but a loser! Why are you bullying me like this?!â
What she liked was not Henley but the money in his pocket. Now that her cash cow was gone, of
course, she would go crazy.
Philip raised his right eyebrow slightly and looked a little impatient.
âClara Nolan,â Philip said flatly, âThese three slaps today are my warning to you. Donât trouble Wynn in
the future.â
âWhat did you say?â Clara huffed with anger. âA loser like you actually dares to warn me?â
âWhy not?!â
Philip had a calm tone before this, but he suddenly roared as he glared viciously at Clara like a wild
beast! It was like the rumble of thunder, causing Clara to jolt in fright. She instinctively took two steps
back as her rage diffused by half.
Philip approached Clara one step at a time and said, âIâm telling you, Clara Nolan, even a rabbit will bite
when threatened. If you dare to humiliate my wife or spread any rumors about her in the future, I
promise to make your life worse than death!â
