Chapter 2012
The First Heir
Morrow stood up with the help of his servants. He was looking at the sky on the horizon when his legs
suddenly felt very sore and he started to cough violently.
Cough, cough!
âOh, Old Master Morrow, youâre coughing up blood!â The servant next to him saw the bloodstained
white handkerchief in Morrowâs hand and shouted in alarm, âSomeone, quickly call for Dr. Garfield
Gates!â
Morrow looked past the door frame at the sky. The layers of dark clouds rolling in from the distance
made him panic.
âThe weather is about to change.â
Morrow mumbled this sentence under his breath before he coughed violently and passed out. The
servants turned pale with fright and quickly called for medical staff.

On the other hand, Wade had returned to his residence and was standing in the hall with three men in
front of him. They were wearing uniformed black steel armor branded with a tiger pattern, black steel
helmets, steel-toe boots, and had tiger-patterned sabers at their waists. They were a deadly presence
in the hall.
Swish!
The 13 Tiger Generals knelt on one knee and shouted imposingly, âFourth Tiger, Seventh Tiger, and
Ninth Tiger of the 13 Tiger Generals are here to receive orders!â
Wade stood at the forefront with his hands behind his back. With a chilly face, he said tersely, âAll rise.â
Three of the 13 elite Tiger Generals in the branch family got up and stood upright.
âHow many men do you have now?â Wade asked.
The leader replied, âThe chieftain has taken half with him. Part of the remaining half is stationed around
the branch family on Arcadia Island and near the sea. We can deploy around 300 guards at this
moment.â
Hearing that, Wade frowned and said, âOnly 300? Fine, it should be enough.â
Wade said with a biting chill in his eyes, âFollow me to the main family!â
âWe obey!â
The three Tiger Generals responded and pressed their hands to the tiger-patterned saber at their
waists. Following Wade, they set off for the main family.

The line of sight shifted to Philip, who was in his residence with Wynn, Mila, and the newly born Nelson
Clarke.
With a happy smile on her face, Wynn looked at her little son in the incubator and said to Philip, âLook,
his nose is exactly like yours.â
Philip stood next to Wynn with his left hand on her shoulder. He looked at the kid in the incubator and
said with a smile, âHis eyes and mouth are very similar to yours. In the future, I think this little brat will
grow into a handsome boy and break many girlsâ hearts.â
Wynn rolled her eyes at him and said, âAre you jealous of your sonâs good looks? Or do you want to
break someoneâs heart?â
Philip quickly pursed his lips and said, âOf course not. Youâve misunderstood.â
Suddenly, a servant walked in and shouted, âYoung Master, people from the law enforcement hall are
outside looking for you.â
