Chapter 2013
The First Heir
Hearing that, Philip frowned as he patted Wynn on the shoulder and said, âIâll go out for a moment.â
Wynn glanced back and asked worriedly, âIs there a problem?â
Philip shook his head, kissed her on the forehead, and said, âItâs fine. Iâll be back soon.â
After that, Philip left the nursery and walked into the hall.
In the hall, several people from the law enforcement hall were standing arrogantly at this moment.
Several pairs of eyes constantly scanned the hall, staring at the rare treasures.
When Philip came out of the nursery, they pretended to be respectful and said with a bow, âGreetings,
Young Master Philip. We hope youâre in good health.â
Philip stuck his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced around randomly, and did not answer their
pretentious greeting. He sat on the white sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes flowing with indifferent
chills. He asked, âWhy are you here? Just get to the point.â
The man who took the lead looked very young and a little feminine. He was wearing a white suit and
his hair was greasy. A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes as he said with a grin, âYoung Master
Philip, the five elders of the law enforcement hall jointly ordered you to immediately release the sixth
enforcer. They also want you to go back with me for questioning. Oh yes, Young Madam also has to go
back with me.â
After saying that, the man just stood there, not in the least bit anxious. His words revealed a lot of
information.
Firstly, it was an order from the law enforcement hall, not a request. Secondly, they wanted him to go
back. They were not asking. It was enough to show that the law enforcement hall had a clear attitude
on this matter and did not fear Philip.
Moreover, the respect this man had for Philip was feigned.
People of the law enforcement hall would not be afraid of the young masters of the main or branch
families. That was because the law enforcement hall was a cage!
Those who arrived there, regardless of their status and whether they were the heir of the Clarke family
or the old master, were all prisoners and would be treated equally. As the youngest great-grandson of
the third elder of the law enforcement hall, Gerry Clarke would naturally not show any respect to Philip,
the young master who had not yet officially inherited the main Clarke family. However, due to his
position, he still did his part.
Philip glanced at the other party and found Gerry smiling subtly at him.
âWhatâs your name?â Philip suddenly asked.
Gerry smiled slightly and said, âMy name is Gerry Clarke. Iâm the youngest great-grandson of Third
Elder, Desmond Clarke.â
âDesmond Clarke?â
When Philip heard this name, he sneered and said, âIs that old turtle still alive? After so many years, he
has lived long enough, so why is he jumping around now? Is be not afraid of straining his back?â
Hearing this, Gerryâs face trembled as a trace of displeasure appeared in the corners of his eyes. He
said, âYoung Master Philip, my great-grandfather is Desmond Clarke. In terms of seniority, heâs also
your third great-granduncle. You shouldnât call him by his name directly, let alone call him an old turtle.â
Gerry was upset. With Philipâs attitude, was he trying to go against the law enforcement hall?
Moreover, what did he mean by an old turtle? Was that not the same as calling him a little turtle?
This hateful heir of the main family!
No wonder people outside said that Philip was very arrogant and cocky even though he had just
returned. He did not put the branch family and law enforcement hall in his eyes at all!
So be it!
Today, Philip shall taste the power of the law enforcement hall!
Philip chuckled and motioned the servants to serve tea to Gerry and the rest. He said, âDonât mind me,
itâs just a slip of the tongue. I just brewed some Darjeeling tea. Have a taste.â
Gerryâs face darkened as he wiped away his fake pretense and said coldly, âThatâs unnecessary. I hope
that youâll hurry up and make the release before returning to the law enforcement hall with me so that I
can finish my job.â
Smack!
Philip slammed the teacup heavily on the table and scratched his ear indifferently. He asked
disdainfully and languidly, âGerry Clarke, let me ask you. As the eldest young master and future heir of
the main family, if I ask you to drink this cup of tea and you refuse, what are the consequences
according to the rules of the law enforcement hall?â
