Chapter 1951
The First Heir
Philip felt a little amazed when he saw Fulton.
âEven Fulton is here? What is his father doing?â
âWas this pompadour really necessary?â
âWhy are you here too?â Philip asked with a frown.
If he understood Fultonâs words correctly, all members of the Shadow Squadron were here as well?
This was in addition to the Dragon Knights from just now. What exactly was his father going to do,
sending so many great characters to a small Uppercreek?
With a respectful look on his face, Fulton replied, âThe lord has ordered us to escort Young Lord back
to the island. The Dragon Knights have taken the lead to place the entire Uppercreek under martial law.
All the members of the Shadow Squadron are gathered outside the hospital at this moment, waiting for
the young lord and young lady to return to the island at any time.â
Philipâs face tensed. He was just about to speak when Martha stepped forward from behind him and
pointed at Fulton as she exclaimed, âIâve seen you before. Werenât you the person beside the old man
in the wheelchair? Hey, why are you here again? Wait, what did you call him just now? Young Lord?
You must be kidding, you psycho!â
Philip tilted his head, glanced at Martha coldly, and took a step back.
Martha was startled.
âWas Philip serious about backing off?â
Before she could react, the tall Fulton was in front of her. He had a cold face and was staring fixedly at
Martha. He said impassively, âFor being disrespectful to the young lord, you should be punished!â
As soon as he said that, Martha felt a gust of wind in front of her!
Smack!
A crisp slap resounded throughout the ward!
Fulton had directly raised his hand and slapped Martha who spun around twice on the spot before she
staggered back and fell on the sofa at the side. Several teeth were knocked out of her mouth, which
was full of blood now!
Fulton did not use his full strength, or rather, the strength he used was akin to the size of a sesame
seed.
Otherwise, this slap could have killed Martha Yates.
âArgh!â
A miserable scream followed.
The atmosphere in the entire ward fell silent for an instant. No one could believe that Fulton would
strike out like that.
Of course, except for Philip.
Charles was also taken aback at Fultonâs action and hurried to support Martha.
Martha covered her face and spat out a mouthful of blood, her face full of astonishment. When she
came to her senses, she pointed at Fulton and hissed hysterically, âHow dare you hit me? Who are you
to hit me?â
After that, she stared at Philip fiercely and shouted, âPhilip Clarke, is this someone you arranged? Did
you deliberately find someone to get rid of me?â
With a howl, Martha immediately ran to Wynnâs bed and wailed, âWynnie, just look at Philip. He
deliberately found someone to take care of me. Iâm his mother-in-law but he treats me this way. Does
he still have any respect for me? Does he have any regard for you?â
Wynn was already physically weak. Now that Martha was yelling in her ear, she only felt her head
aching. She said breathlessly, âMom, stop kicking up a fuss. Heâs justâ¦â
âWhat do you mean Iâm kicking up a fuss?â
As soon as she heard that Wynn was not on her side, Martha got angry. Pointing at Philip and Fulton,
she yelled unreasonably, âIâm your mother! Why are you helping an outsider now? Did Philip put
something in your head? Donât be fooled! This is someone Philip found to put on a show in front of us
so that he can swallow our familyâs assets!â
