Chapter 2112
The First Heir
Tanya knelt in front of the bed, crying soundlessly. Her head was buried in the arms of an old man with
weak breathing who was hooked up to an IV drip and ventilator.
The old man was none other than Pearce Gilson.
Philip was shocked when he saw Pearceâs state at this moment. It had only been a few months but the
old man looked as if he was terminally ill.
Pearce was leaning on the bed frame at this time. When he saw Philip appear at the door, his eyes
cleared and a bolt of energy surged in his body. He reached out for Philip and shouted with all his
strength, âY-Young Master Clarkeâ¦â
While shouting, he tried to get out of the bed and salute Philip.
Philip hurried forward, grabbed Pearce, and said, âOld Master, thereâs no need to do so.â
Pearce coughed violently, took off his breathing mask, and said, âYoung Master Clarke, I canât salute
you anymore. Please forgive me.â
Philip did not say anything and helped Pearce into the bed again. Then, he glanced at Tanya who was
still crying. He asked with a frown, âOld Master Gilson, how did you end up like this?â
Pearce squeezed out a smile on his pale face and said, âItâs all because the Harrison family imposed
sanctions on my family and forced my youngest daughter to marry. I refused, so the Harrison family
sent people to break my legs and poison me. My body wonât last long. Iâm satisfied that I could see
Tanya come back before I die.â
Then, Pearce took Philipâs hand and said, âYoung Master Clarke, thank you for taking time out of your
busy schedule to help the Gilson family. We wonât forget this favor.â
âTanya, quickly thank your benefactor.â
Tanya got up, wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes, and bowed to Philip. âThank you for your help.â
Philip hurriedly waved his hand and said, âItâs okay. Old Master Gilson, I gave you my promise about
this. It was my negligence that caused youâ¦â
Pearce quickly stopped Philip and said, âYoung Master Clarke, this matter has nothing to do with you.
Youâre already a great benefactor to the Gilson family for helping my daughter get out of the clutches of
the Harrison family. Itâs a pity that I have nothing to repay you now. I believe you donât need jewelry and
treasures. If you donât mind, my daughter can follow you and serve you.â
After that, Pearce said to Tanya, âTanya, are you willing to serve your benefactor?â
Tanya knelt on the floor as she lowered her head and said, âI was saved by the benefactor. Of course,
Iâm willing to serve.â
Philip was a little surprised. Old Master Gilson was too straightforward.
Was he entrusting his orphan to Philip?
Philip pulled Tanya up and said, âYou donât have to do this. I donât need you to repay me in this way.â
Tanya stubbornly wiped her tears and said to Philip, âIf you donât agree, Iâll remain on my knees.â With
that said, Tanya knelt again.
Pearce coughed and said, âYoung Master Clarke, the Gilson family has always returned favors. If you
donât agree, my daughter will certainly not get up. This is my last request before I die.â
As soon as he finished speaking, the old servants at the door also knelt and shouted, âYoung Master
Clarke, please take in the young lady.â
Philipâs eyes flickered. Seeing Pearce like this, and looking at the members of the Gilson family, he
found it unbearable. He looked at Tanya who was kneeling on the floor and said, âAlright, get up, all of
you.â
However, a furious roar suddenly came outside!
âDamn it! Get the f*ck out of my way! Iâm Travis Harrison, the young master of the Harrison family! Who
are you to stop me?â
