Chapter 2040
The First Heir
Seeing that Philip could still behave so arrogantly in such a situation, the old man with a goatee got
angry. His eyes widened as he slapped the table. Standing up, he pointed at Philip angrily and shouted,
âHow dare you speak to me in this manner? Well, since you want to know, I see no harm in telling you.
My name is Ted Clarke!â
âTed Clarke?â
Philip frowned and murmured before he raised his eyebrows. With a mocking smile, he said, âSorry, Iâm
not familiar with this name.â
âWhat do you mean?â Ted scowled.
What did this kid mean by that? Was his reputation so obscure?
Philip chuckled and said, âIt only means one thing. For an unknown old guy like you, I think youâre
nothing but a useless piece of crap with no contribution to the Clarke family. An old thing like you
should rest in peace earlier!â
Hiss!
Instantly, the entire memorial hall fell silent. Everyone looked at Philip in disbelief. This guy was so
cocky!
This was the branch familyâs memorial hall that was full of reputable old masters and elders.
He actually said that he had never heard of Ted Clarke? Also, the term ârest in peaceâ was simply a
provocation.
âYou⦠insolence! Simply outrageous!â
Ted was furious. He pointed at Philip and said to Wade, âMaster Wade, just look at how domineering
this brat is. I suggest that we break his limbs immediately and drag him to the square to hang him upâ¦â
However, before he could finish his wordsâ¦
Smack!
A loud slap was heard in the hall.
Hiss!
In an instant, everyoneâs eyes widened. Their faces were full of astonishment as they stared at Philip
who had struck out. He actually slapped Ted!
Overhearing!
He totally disregarded the seniors of the branch family present. He also ignored the memorial hall!
âAh!â
Ted yelled immediately. When he finally reacted, his eyes were already blood shot as he stared at
Philip like a hysterical rabid dog. While pointing at him with trembling fingers, he roared. âYou, how dare
you hit me? Iâm Ted Clarke! I amâ¦â
Smack!
When everyone just reacted, Philip reached out and slapped Ted viciously on the other side of his face.
Before the shock on everyoneâs faces disappeared, they were shocked again. Their worldview
shattered from the impact!
Was the young master of the main family really so arrogant?
Wade also glared and roared. âPresumptuous! Simply arrogant! You four, immediately break his legs
and make him kneel down before us!â
âYes!â
In an instant, the four subordinates armed with law enforcement batons approached Philip.
However, Philip said leisurely at this time, âWade, Iâm afraid that all your heads will roll if I kneel down.â
