Chapter 821
The First Heir
After Philip left the mansion, he returned to the villa. He looked after Mila for a while before calling
Wynn.
âWynnie, how are things? Is there a turnaround?â Philip asked in concern.
Wynn tiredly said, âNo, weâre still dealing with it. Is Mila asleep?â
âShe just went to bed. Should I pick you up?â Philip continued asking.
âNo, Iâm afraid I have to work overtime tonight. You should go to bed too.â
Wynn smiled. She deliberately took the time to answer this call.
Philip frowned when he heard this and said worriedly, âYouâre still pregnant. You shouldnât be working
so hard. Listen to me. Iâll pick you up. Just leave the companyâs affairs to your staff. If they really canât
handle it, Iâll take care of it,â Philip said as he got up and put on his coat, ready to leave the villa.
âNo, I can still manage it. If I donât handle this matter in person, the new board members will complain
about it.â
Wynn was also in a dilemma. After all, in this position, she would not be able to win peopleâs hearts if
she did not do anything.
âNo, I wonât allow it. You must get more rest. Iâll go to your office immediately!â Philip said forcefully,
acting exactly like a domineering president.
This sentence made Wynnâs heart tremble as a warm current quickly flowed through her body.
He was too manly!
Her husband really loved her.
She was very blissful.
He was her anchor.
âOkay, Iâll wait for you.â Wynn agreed docilely before hanging up the phone.
Back to Robbie James.
After Philip left, Robbie immediately ran out of the mansion and drove personally to a villa in the
suburbs!
This was a famous wealthy district in Riverdale.
Although the cost of the villas here was not comparable to Longford Park, it was not too far off either.
In the lobby of a brightly lit and splendid villa.
This place had very high-end decor and the furniture in the entire villa was fully-customized!
Even the sofa was made with goose down imported from Italy with the entire set costing hundreds of
thousands of dollars!
Not to mention that the floor tiles were overlaid with self-supporting volcanic cobblestone.
At this moment, Robbie was on his knees kneeling in front of the sofa with his head lowered, similar to
a yakuza-style greeting.
On the sofa in front of him, a barefooted man in his 50s who was wearing white loose pajamas was
tasting the superior goose meat that the maid had just served.
Just like this, Robbie knelt for more than ten minutes. During this period, he did not dare to say a word
nor did he dare to lift his head!
Not until the man finished the plate of goose meat.
âI already know about that matter.â
The man wiped his oily mouth with a white cloth. He wore jade rings on his fingers, exuding a stern and
distinguished manner.
As his words fell, the black-suited butler next to him handed a black walking stick to the man.
Smack!
The man took the stick and slammed it into Robbieâs shoulder!
With just one strikeâ¦
Crack!
The sound of bones breaking could be heard clearly.
Argh!
Robbie fell directly to the ground, groaning miserably. Then, he got up after painful difficulty and knelt
properly again!
His entire right arm hung limply as if broken!
âTrash! Iâve raised you for so many years but someone has destroyed you with petty means!â
The man stood up at this moment, his leg seemingly giving him some problems. He shouted angrily,
âBoasting all day long about being one of the 12 Emperors of Entertainment, but you canât even handle
some tricks from a young man! You good-for-nothing!â
Robbie dared not refute. He lowered his head with his face flushed. There were beads of cold sweat on
his forehead and his veins were popping as well!
It was too painful!
The pain in his right arm made him unable to kneel straight!
âGod⦠Godfather is right! Itâs my negligence! I was wrong! I hope you can seek justice for me. I canât
take this lying down!â
Robbie bowed his head, his expression full of anger and unwillingness.
The man in his 50s banged his walking stick heavily on the floor tiles, startling Robbie in fright.
âLook at what you did! How could a little thing be messed up like that?!â the man cursed, and after a
while, he asked coldly, âWhatâs the background of the other party? Have you found out?â
Robbie adjusted his position while still kneeling, facing the direction of the man who had his back
toward him now. He said, âYes⦠His name is Philip Clarke, husband to Wynn Johnston, the chairman
of Beacon Group. Outsiders say heâs just a good-for-nothing son-in-law who married into the family, so
this time, it must be planned by Beacon. There must be an expert behind them. Philip is just a pawn.â
Robbie had analyzed the situation to be this way.
He could hardly be blamed.
The information he received was precisely thisâPhilip Clarke was a wastrel.
How could a person like this employ such methods?
Therefore, Robbie concluded that there was someone else behind Beacon!
âPhilip Clarke?â
The man frowned and mumbled under his breath, his eyes getting colder. âA trash son-in-law?
Interesting.â
