Chapter 3093
The First Heir
Philipâs face darkened. He looked as Angus left and took a deep breath.
What existence was the Heavenly Court exactly?
Fennel and the others rushed in anxiously and said, âWhatâs up? What did that old man want?â
âHe wants me to cooperate with them,â Philip replied.
âWhat did you say?â Fennel asked.
âI turned him down,â Philip said.
Fennel frowned and said, âActually, you shouldnât refuse so decisively. After all, the Heavenly Court has
its strengths. Even if this isnât sincere cooperation, itâs not bad to have a backup partner.â
Philip sighed and said, âI know what you mean, but Iâm not keen on the Heavenly Court. Forget it, letâs
goâ¦â
Fennel and the others nodded. Soon, they got into a snow jeep and were about to leave Cochly
Mountain.
The five marquises stood at the top of the snow-capped mountains and looked at them from a distance.
Marquis Fulmore stood with his hands behind his back and said, âHow far do you think he can grow?â
âI donât know, but he wonât be less than his father,â one of the marquises said.
âI hope we have enough time to last until his return,â Marquis Fulmore sighed.

Soon, Philip and his gang left the snowy Cochly Mountain.
They boarded a private plane and returned to Riverdale. However, Philip only stayed in Riverdale for
half a day and formally warned Martin and Bernard Johnston.
Riverdale was on lockdown on this day. Martin and Bernard knew Philipâs true identity and were scared
to death.
âMartin, Philipâs actually the heir of that Clarke family,â Bernard told Martin his opinion.
âBernard, stop talking. I get it. Letâs proceed with caution from now on,â Martin answered Bernard with
gloomy face.

Half a day later, Philip and the others left Riverdale and went to Fernvale to visit his grandfather. His
grandfather was still in the same comatose state. Cynthia was taking good care of him.
âPhilip, I have something to tell youâ¦â Cynthia and Philip walked to a garden.
Philip frowned, looked at Cynthia, and said, âWhatâs up?â
After hesitating for a long time, Cynthia took out a golden dragon jade pendant from her pocket and
said, âA few days ago, the Imperial Preceptor found me and gave this to me. He said Iâm his daughter. I
donât know what to do, Philip!â
Hiss!
Philip was shocked!
Cynthia Larson was the Imperial Preceptorâs daughter?
âAre you sure?â Philip asked.
Cynthia nodded and said tearfully, âThe hospital has issued a DNA report. Iâm indeed his daughterâ¦
Philip, I canât accept it at all right now. My father is actually the veritable Imperial Preceptor. What
should I do? He said he wants to take me away, but I donât want to leave my father, the grandmaster,
and youâ¦â
Philipâs face darkened.
After thinking for a long time, he reached out, hugged Cynthia, and said, âThis is your personal affair.
You have to make your own choices.â
Cynthia fell into Philipâs arms and burst into tears.
After a long time, Cynthia was tired from crying, so Philip sent her back to her room.
The next day, Philip said goodbye to Cynthia and the others. He took a private plane and returned to
the Clarke family on Arcadia Island.
