Chapter 2063
The First Heir
After Christian stood up, the elders and people in charge of the branch family, as well as the young
masters and young ladies, finally dared to follow suit. Then, Christian left the memorial hall with the
man in his 50s.
After Christian left, the other members of the branch family in the memorial hall finally dared to air their
grievances.
âOh, my legs are numb! Itâs all that damned Philipâs fault!â
âYes, damn it! After kneeling here all night, Iâm nearly starving to death!â
The group of pampered young masters and young ladies felt dizzy. They could not wait to leave the
memorial hall and go back to the comfort of their own homes.
In the memorial hall, more than a dozen elders and people in charge of the branch family remained.
At this moment, they looked at each other. Some helplessly shook their heads and sighed before
saying, âIâll be going back, then. After one night of suffering, my body canât take it anymore.â
âIâm leaving too. I still have things to handle at the company.â
For a while, several elders and people in charge of the branch family bade farewell to Wade and
Desmond.
In the memorial hall, only a few old masters and Desmond were left.
Bang!
With a sullen face, Wade kicked a flower pot on the side and shouted, âDamn it! What an outrage! Iâve
lived for 50 years, but I have never suffered such a disgrace as yesterday!â
Hansel also had a cold expression on his face. He clenched his fists and said, âNo matter what, we
canât just let this matter go! Word of what happened yesterday has already spread out. This is a loss of
the branch familyâs image and dignity! If we just let it go, the prestige of the branch family on Arcadia
Island will decline. The plan we have laid out for so long will be in vain!â
Desmond snorted and said, âThatâs right! That damned brat bullied the branch family and killed my
great-grandson. I definitely wonât give up on this matter! Even if the chieftain doesnât pursue it, Iâll still
go all out!â
Several people looked at each other, their eyes full of anger.
At this time, Salem spoke up from the side, âEveryone, listen to me. Canât you see whatâs happening
after yesterdayâs incident? First, it was Aria Tsar. Then, we have Horace Clarke. Finally, even the grand
elder stepped in. Do you still think we can do anything to Philip in the Clarke family?â
As soon as this sentence was uttered, all of them fell silent.
Yes.
The incident yesterday had already spoken for itself. Moreover, even the grand elder was involved now.
It would be really difficult for them to do anything to Philip.
âSo what do we do? Do we just let it go?â
Wade was very reluctant. He received the greatest humiliation yesterday. He made an oath, but the
result was not satisfactory.
Desmond raised his eyebrows, followed by a flash of cold light in his eyes. He made a gesture of
swiping his neck and said, âIn that case, why donât we try to lure Philip out of Clarke Manor and get rid
of him outside? That way, even if an investigation is conducted, it wonât be traced back to us.â
âI think thatâs a good idea!â Hansel agreed.
However, Salem shook his head and said, âYouâre wrong. Think about it carefully. Philip dared to cause
such a big disturbance on the first day he returned. Why is that?â
Several peopleâs faces darkened as they looked at each other. Then, they turned to Salem and asked,
âWhat do you mean?â
