The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 649

"His last name is Clarke, but he probably isn't from that group." The butler replied, but he did not say any more than that. "Probably? Look into it again!" The middle-aged man lost interest in the topic and said calmly,

"Keep a close eye on what the Quaids do now. If they try anything unusual, tell me immediately. As for that Philip Clarke fellow, try to keep him alive if possible." "Yes, sir." The butler left the room, leaving the middle-aged man alone in the large study. He continued to admire the painting on the wall, marveling at its beauty. However, just then, the door to the study flew open, and an old man leaning on a cane appeared at the door. The middle-aged man hurriedly ran to the old man and said respectfully, "Why did you come down here, Father? It's so late!" The old man sat on the couch and coughed softly before saying, "I hear that the Quaid's son was castrated?" This was Old Master Joo, the foundation of the Joo family and the person with the most say!

But how?! “Could it be...?!” The middle-aged man instantly remembered something. Although the Quaids tried to hush up what happened to their first son, the rumors still circulated within their shared circles. People in their position were especially inclined to find out whatever information they wanted. If he remembered correctly, the man back then had the last name Clarke as well. Master Clarke’s actions way back then were terrifying to behold as well!

Even national heroes had stepped in! Did they interfere to make peace between the two sides? No! The moment they showed up, they gave the Quaids a harsh scolding and publicly shamed them! “Send someone to Riverdale right away, and stop the Quaids from avenging their second son!” Old Master Joo leaned on his cane, his eyes gleaming with a long-hidden edge. “Also, if necessary, don’t worry about offending the Quaids! Oh yes, Vivi is in Riverdale now, right? Tell her to find a way to approach Philip Clarke!” “Right, I’ll make the arrangements right now.” The middle-aged man hurried out of the study and began issuing orders. Old Master Joo remained in the study, his eyes faintly bright. He murmured to himself, “You won’t be getting away
