The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 2001
Philip sneered inwardly. He did not want to go after the law enforcement hall so soon, but he could not stop the other party from showing up on his doorstep.

When Wilfred saw the convoy, his eyes lit up with hope as he shouted, “Sixth Enforcer, save me quickly! Look at the beating Philip has given me! He even took down the chieftain’s guards!”

As Wilfred’s roar spread throughout the small square, the convoy stopped. The door of the Rolls -Royce at the forefront opened and out stepped a small but energetic old man with his hands behind his back.

The old man wore a gray suit and seemed to be in his 70s. He was older than Wilfred.

However, after the old man stepped out, his dormant aura was much stronger than Wilfred’s!

With a headful of gray and his hands behind his back, he walked up to Wilfred. He glared at Wilfred coldly and reprimanded, “Useless fool, embarrassing the branch family here! I didn’t raise you for so many years for you to disgrace yourself!”

Following his reprimand, Wilfred meekly lowered his head, not daring to refute at all.

The sixth enforcer in front of him was his uncle. He was a generation older than him!

He was one of the very few older generations of the Clarke family who were still around now.

The sixth enforcer turned his head, his eyes sweeping across the Wolf Guards who were being pressed on the ground as well as the one who had been killed on one side. A trace of stern grimness flashed in his eyes.

After that, he walked up to Philip, his height reaching Philip’s shoulders. Due to his hunched back, he looked somewhat aged.

“What, am I not worthy of your greeting even though I’m standing here?”

The sixth enforcer said coldly with a subtle smirk.

Philip frowned and was silent for a few seconds before saying, “Sixth Great- granduncle.”

That was right, the old man in front was Philip’s sixth great-granduncle.

He was also Roger Clarke’s sixth granduncle.

He was a person with high seniority in the Clarke family!

He was rarely seen throughout the year.

Such an old guy should be enjoying his retirement in his manor.

However, he was out and about today.

Moreover, he was a little forceful.

The old man nodded before his gaze fell on the two madams and Wynn behind Philip. He smiled and said, “The two madams are also here.”

Hazel and Nadia both gave small smiles and greeted, “Sixth Granduncle.’

The old man nodded with a smile before his gaze fell on Wynn. He asked, “Are you Philip’s wife?”

Wynn was very nervous at the moment. She looked at the two mothers and then at Philip before

she nodded while saying, “Y-Yes.”

Then, the old man nodded and said coldly, “The people of the branch family want to bring you there for a visit and to meet the elders. Why don’t you come along with me?”

There was no room for doubt or resistance.

This was the attitude and will of the sixth enforcer!

Very clear!

As soon as he said that, the two elite guards of the law enforcement hall behind the sixth enforcer stepped forward and made an inviting gesture, ready to bring her away.

“Miss Johnston, please get in the car,” the leading guard stretched out his hand and said.

Chapter 2002
Philip stood forward, flung his hand, and pushed the old man away. Then, he pulled Wynn behind him with a cold face, his gaze sweeping over the two guards of the law enforcement hall. He looked at the sixth enforcer and asked, “Shouldn’t you ask for my consent before taking my wife away?”

The sixth enforcer smiled slightly. With his hands behind his back, he stared at Philip with dark eyes and said, “Philip boy, are you trying to defy the orders of the sixth enforcer of the law enforcement hall?”

He was suppressing others with power!

Different from Wilfred, he was the sixth enforcer of the law enforcement hall!

He was one of the ten elders!

Compared to Wilfred who was only a candidate elder, his position was much higher!

Philip looked calm and raised his eyebrows. A chill flashed at the corner of his eyes as he asked, “Is the law enforcement hall powerful? Can the people of the law enforcement hall take my wife away in front of me?”

Hearing that, the old man shuddered.

What an arrogant kid!

In his eyes, the law enforcement hall was not a big deal?

At these words, Wynn, who was hiding behind Philip, felt a stirring in her heart!

Philip seemed to have become more assertive than before!

Was he still the same husband who would endure everything in silence when he was beaten and scolded?

Was he still the unknown lover in her eyes?

She secretly pulled Philip’s hem and whispered, “Philip, why don’t I just go with them? After all, he’s your great- granduncle, an elder.”

The sixth enforcer smiled and said, “It seems that a lowly woman from outside knows the rules better than you, the eldest young master of the Clarke family!”

Lowly?

Philip’s face darkened when he heard the words. He took a step forward and said coldly, “Sixth Great-granduncle, by definition, you’re an elder and have very high seniority in the Clarke family. You’re loved and supported by others. Moreover, an elder like you should know some reasoning better than I do.”

The sixth enforcer frowned, and his eyes were filled with chills as he looked at Philip who was walking up to him at this moment.

“But you mentioned the word ‘lowly’ just now? I don’t quite understand. Wynn is my wife, the official first wife of the eldest young master of the main Clarke family! She’s the young madam of the main Clarke family! Could it be that in your eyes, her identity and status can only be

described as ’lowly’?”

Philip shouted, his voice getting louder and louder, causing everyone’s eardrums to buzz!

The sixth enforcer’s lips trembled as he frowned. When he was about to speak, Philip interrupted him and continued to ask, “I would like to ask, honored Sixth Great-granduncle, in the law enforcement hall, per the Clarke family rules, what is the crime for disrespecting the heir of the main Clarke family and the young madam of the main Clarke family?”

An angry roar soared through the sky!

All the flying birds in the air were startled!

In the small square, Howser Hewitt’s subordinates once again stood at attention and quickly surrounded all these people from the law enforcement hall!

The atmosphere was tense!

The sixth enforcer was dumbfounded by Philip’s question and his chest boiled with anger.

After that, he laughed coldly and said, “Very well, boy. After being away for seven years, you have changed to become more aggressive and ambitious.”

Philip smiled calmly and said, “It’s all thanks to you.”

The sixth enforcer laughed coldly, turned his head to look at Howser and the other Field Guards of the main family with chills in his eyes, asking, “What, do you want to make a move against me?”

“I don’t, but if you insist on being unreasonable, then I’m sorry, there will be more people lying on the ground here today.”

Philip said coldly, the kingly aura on his body getting more domineering!

Hearing this, the sixth enforcer frowned. With his hands behind his back, his gaze turned cold. After a long while, he said, “Good, well done! It’s really something for the main family to produce a young master like you. Let’s see what you can do to me, then! Elite guards of the law enforcement hall, heed my orders. If anyone dares to disobey the orders of the law enforcement hall, take them down directly!”

Chapter 2003
Suddenly, all the elites of the law enforcement hall behind the sixth enforcer sprang into action, drawing weapons from their waists and aiming them at Howser’s men!

At the site, the atmosphere was very tense!

It was a confrontation between both parties!

That sort of tension made people panic and made their palms sweaty!

Wynn grabbed Philip’s sleeve tightly for fear that he might do something impulsive!

Howser was a smart person. Without waiting for Philip’s order, he drew his weapon, pressed it against the head of one of the elite law enforcement hall guards, and roared, “Are you guys trying to rebel? With me around, who dares to disrespect my young lord?! I’ll be the first to kill him!”

Howser was an unrefined person with a bad temper. He was quite reputable in the Clarke family.

It was said that he was highly regarded by Fulton and one of the very few who had caught Fulton’s eye!

At this moment, his actions could be considered arrogant to the extreme!

The sixth enforcer turned his head, stared at Howser sullenly, and warned, “How dare a little captain of the Field Guards like you yell at me and point a gun at my man? Presumptuous! I now order you to lay down your weapon, kneel down, and break your right arm!”

Overbearing!

This was how authoritarian the sixth enforcer could be!

As one of the ten elders of the law enforcement hall, he had a lofty status and stood above many others!

The ten elders of the law enforcement hall represented the rules and discipline of the Clarke family.

Going against them was tantamount to going against the entire Clarke family!

People could die!

However, Howser turned his head and sneered. “To me, there’s no sixth enforcer or law enforcement hall. I’m only loyal to the main family, to the lord, and the young lord! If you dare to disrespect the young lord, I have the right to kill you!”

As he said that, the weapon in Howser’s hand was already aimed between the sixth enforcer’s brows!

“Hahaha!”

Sinclair Clarke laughed aloud before he nodded and said, “Very good. The main family’s guards are really something! Even someone like me is of no importance! Do you still have any respect for the law enforcement hall?”

The small square was abuzz with that roar!

However, Howser did not move and still maintained the posture with his gun raised.

This made Sinclair angry!

Swish!

He grabbed the weapon from the guard beside him and pulled the trigger!

Bang!

He fired at a Field Guard at his side in the leg and blood instantly gushed!

The guard fell directly to the ground, holding his leg.

However, he did not kick up a fuss. He merely groaned and grunted.

“Drop your weapon!” Sinclair roared, his weapon now aimed at Howser.

Howser looked at his subordinate. His eyes were abruptly ablaze, and his chest was full of anger!

“You dare to touch my man?” Howser roared in anger.

His comrade was fine even after experiencing deadly battlefields, but now, he was down after getting shot in the leg by Sinclair!

Damn it!

Bang!

Howser fired the Desert Eagle in his hand at a law enforcement hall guard next to Sinclair!

The guard was shot, fell to the ground, clutched his leg, and groaned.

Seeing this, Sinclair became angry and was about to make a move against Howser.

However, Philip suddenly took the gun from Howser’s hand and stood calmly at gunpoint. Without even raising his eyebrows, he asked coldly, “Sixth Great-granduncle, aren’t you too discourteous to make a move in front of my fourth mother’s residence?”

Chapter 2004
Sinclair was furious at this moment. He stared at Philip sternly and asked, “So what? I’m the sixth enforcer of the law enforcement hall. I have the right to act first and report later. Philip, you must give an explanation to the branch family today!”

Hehe.

Philip sneered and raised his eyebrows slightly. A biting chill flashed across his eyes as he said with a chuckle, “An explanation? What kind of explanation do you want?”

Sinclair tossed the gun in his hand to the guard beside him and said, “Beating up the young master of the branch Clarke family, using brutal methods to disable the fourth old master of the branch family, disrespecting the law enforcement hall, and defying the rules set by the law enforcement hall. With these four allegations, it’s enough for me to send you into the Clarke dungeon for more than half a year!”

Philip chuckled and continued to ask, “So what do you want to do?”

Sinclair laughed and said, “It’s very simple. On the account that you just returned from outside and may be unfamiliar with the Clarke family rules, I won’t make things too difficult for you. As long as you kneel and apologize to me and my fourth nephew, I don’t have to report this matter to the law enforcement hall. In addition, release the former chieftain and the rest. Go to the branch family’s memorial hall in person where you’ll kneel down and apologize to the elders of the branch family. If you do this, I can also forget about this matter.”

Philip shook his head slightly after hearing this.

At this moment, the Desert Eagle in his hand was already reloaded full of bullets.

Seeing Philip’s action, Sinclair frowned and could not figure out what he was up to.

“What if I choose to refuse?”

Philip suddenly said with a smile. He put his hands behind his back, the Desert Eagle in his hand behind him. His face was full of sinister chills.

“You dare refuse?”

Sinclair laughed and said, “If you dare to refuse, I’ll use the power of the law enforcement hall to initiate a trial against you, the heir of the main family! When that happens, you, that lowly woman, and the two wild bastard children you brought back from outside will suffer from the law enforcement hall’s pursuit!”

Philip pursed his lips, nodded, and said, “Very well, I’ll remember this. In that case, you don’t have to live anymore.”

Hearing that, Sinclair was taken aback and his face was greatly alarmed.

What did Philip mean by that?

Behind Philip, the two mothers were also confused.

However, the next second, Philip’s action caused everyone to gasp aloud!

Bang, bang!

Bang, bang!

Sounds of gunshots!

Philip raised his gun with a cold face and an indifferent expression. He directly fired at Sinclair’s arms and legs!

Thud!

Sinclair fell limply in a pool of blood with a hoarse scream!

This miserable scream echoed throughout the residence’s entrance.

Everyone was shocked and could not believe that Philip actually took action against the sixth enforcer of the law enforcement hall!

With these four shots, Sinclair’s four limbs were destroyed!

“After thinking about it, you still don’t deserve to die yet. So just stay in bed for the rest of your life.”

Philip said calmly and handed the Desert Eagle to Howser next to him. He turned around and said, “Clean this place up.”

Howser was also stunned, but at the same time, a surge of admiration welled in his heart.

The young lord was too damn aggressive!

This was the future heir of the main Clarke family!

Too awesome!

“Everyone, clean up the scene!”

Howser shouted and waved his hand. The remaining Field Guards immediately moved out and tackled all those elite guards of the law enforcement hall!

Sinclair was lying in a pool of blood with a pale face but he stiII’roared, “Philip, how dare you do this heinous act?! The law enforcement hall will never let you off for doing this to me! I’m one of the ten elders!”

Philip had just turned around. When he heard Sinclair’s words, he turned his head, his gaze unfathomable with a hint of hatred. He said, “Law enforcement hall? If anyone dares to come again, I don’t mind making a trip there myself. Something as pedantic as this should have been wiped out a long time ago. Father doesn’t dare to make a move against you, but I do!”

Chapter 2005
This sound was enough to shake the entire small square in front of the fourth madam’s residence!

Sinclair’s face was pale and covered in blood. He was held up by Howser’s subordinates.

“Philip, you’ll pay for your actions today! I’m your great-granduncle!”

Sinclair screamed himself hoarse!

As the sixth enforcer and one of the ten elders of the law enforcement hall, he was actually defeated at the hands of this child from the main family who had just returned!

Sinclair was indignant and furious!

He had never suffered in his life, but now, he had lost all his limbs!

On the other side, when Wilfred saw his uncle in such a miserable state, his heart trembled violently!

Philip was too bold and cocky!

By doing this, he was pushing the main family to the forefront of the storm. How could the branch family let him off?

“Philip, you must die today!”

Wilfred also screamed. After that, those from the branch family, regardless of their status, were all taken down by Howser and his men!

The small square was stained with blood, and the stench still lingered in the air.

Philip raised his eyebrows, looked at the blue sky, and took a deep breath.

Wynn, who was by his side, was trembling slightly at this moment. Philip’s method just now was too domineering!

She was not used to it.

Philip sensed Wynn’s emotional changes beside him. Gently grasping her cold and trembling little hand, he stroked her cheek and comforted her. “Wynnie, don’t worry. With me around, I’ll take care of everything. Just be a young madam here with peace of mind. Whoever dares to

bully you, I’ll bring you along and destroy them!”

Imposing!

Wynn raised her head, her eyes red and teary. She pursed her lips and said, “Phil, am I giving you trouble? Is it really okay to ignore the people of the branch family?”

Wynn also knew that this probably happened because of her.

Philip smiled, lifted a stray lock of hair by Wynn’s ear, and said, “It’s no trouble. My wife is always the most important. You’re never a trouble for me. As for the branch family, I know what to do.”

After that, he motioned to the servants and said, “Bring the young madam back to my residence to rest, and make proper arrangements for her.”

The servants bowed and said, “Yes, young master.”

After saying that, several servants helped Wynn, who was still in a daze, and left.

Philip smiled and waved to Wynn who got into the car and left.

After the car left, Philip’s smile gradually stiffened.

Hazel looked a little worried. After Wynn’s departure, she asked Philip, “Phil, is it really okay for you to do this? That’s your great-granduncle. The branch family will never let you off for making him an invalid. The law enforcement hall won’t sit back and do nothing either.”

Philip smiled and said to Hazel, “Fourth Mother, don’t worry. Let’s take things one step at a time.”

Hearing this, Hazel rolled her eyes at him and said, “Are you deliberately making me worried? Tell me quickly, can you really handle this?”

Next to her, Nadia also crossed her arms and asked, “Phil, tell us honestly, what are your plans? You made such a big commotion after you returned. Your father is not on the island now. If the branch family really comes here to question us, we can only ask the third sister for help.”

Philip smiled, put his arms around the necks of the two mothers, and said affectionately, “Both of you don’t have to worry. I know what to do. Okay, I’m hungry. Is there anything good to eat?”

Hazel and Nadia glanced at each other and both shook their heads helplessly. They pretended to say angrily, “You only know how to eat! You don’t consider our feelings at all.”

Having said that, the two mothers still hurriedly ordered the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous meal.

Chapter 2006
Meanwhile, Martha had been cleaning dog poop on the lawn for hours!

Only now did she discover that this place was like a dog factory!

Thousands of precious and ferocious dogs from all countries could be found here!

With both nostrils stuffed with tissues, she fought the urge to throw up as she scooped dog poop from the grass.

She also had to put up with those animals barking at her!

It was not pleasant at all!

She hated that damned Philip Clarke from the bottom of her heart now!

This damned son-in-law was deliberately making things difficult for her!

He was taking revenge for the past four years and venting his frustrations on her!

Martha wanted to cry, her heart filled with regret and hatred!

How long would she have to shovel dog poop in such a large place?

Just when she tried to be lazy, the fierce fat aunt whipped her and yelled, “What are you doing? Who allowed you to be lazy? Hurry and clean everything up. If you don’t finish it today, you won’t have food to eat at night!”

Fat Aunt was just like a wicked landlord!

She was much more savage than Martha!

Martha had already been whipped several times and her body hurt like hell. She howled and said, “I’ll do it! Stop hitting me. I’m doing it!”

Smack!

She was whipped another time as Fat Aunt shouted, “Get to work!”

After a while, Martha finally could not stand it anymore. She threw away the tools in her hand and cursed at Fat Aunt aggressively, “Don’t you force me! I’m Philip Clarke’s mother-in-law and the in-law of the Clarke family on your island! If you treat me like this now, you’ll pay for it in the future!”

Hearing that, Fat Aunt sneered contemptuously, rolled up her sleeves, took the whip in her hand, and said, “Oh my, are you still dreaming? Someone like you can be our young master’s mother-in -law? What bullshit are you talking about? I can also say that I’m our young master’s mother-in- law!”

On the side, several middle-aged women also gathered around.

“Fat Aunt, this woman is asking for a beating.”

“That’s right, she’s dreaming in broad daylight. She deserves a good beating.”

With that said, the few women rolled up their sleeves and sneered as they gathered around Martha.

Martha was so scared that she fell to the ground.

Following that, heart-wrenching screams could be heard near the area!

Ten minutes later, Martha lay on the ground alone, moaning and groaning with bruises all over. She looked utterly disheveled, and her swollen face was covered with tears.

Fat Aunt and the others had already left.

Martha sat on the ground, slapped her thighs, and bawled, “Wynnie, come and save me. I’m about to be beaten to death.”

Wynn was sent back to Philip’s residence by the servants.

At this moment, she was dumbfounded as she stood at the entrance of Philip’s residence.

Was this where Philip lived?

This question flashed through her head a dozen times!

She dared not accept the sight in front of her. It was very difficult to accept!

The place where Philip lived was on the right side of that white castle at the top of the mountain!

The top of the mountain was flattened out.

The dazzling castle was like the palace of an ancient prince!

It was too luxurious!

The carved beams, the grandeur!

The land area covered at least tens of thousands of square feet!

There was also a garage built on a hilltop not far away. At a glance, it was parked full of various luxury cars!

There were even a few private jets!

“Is this where Philip lives?” Wynn asked in a daze.

The servant beside her bowed and said respectfully, “Yes, Young Madam.”

Chapter 2007
Wynn took a deep breath and mustered her courage before she stepped into the castle that looked like a palace.

As soon as she entered, she could hardly stand still!

Too extravagant!

Too big!

Many rare and famous paintings hung on the wall with many expensive decorations!

At first glance, many auction items that had caused a sensation across the country and abroad were actually displayed in this hall.

Some were even randomly tossed in the corner.

Wynn might not be aware that any one of these carelessly discarded objects in the corner could be worth more than ten million in the market outside.

Wynn walked along the hall, and with each step she took, the shock on her face became more and more intense!

Finally, she stopped in the hall and stared at the pure white wall.

This was the only clean wall in the entire hall.

At this moment, Wynn looked at the item hanging on the wall and her eyes became blurry with tears.

She covered her mouth as two streams of tears rolled down her face.

On that wall was the wedding photo of her and Philip!

The newlyweds in that photo looked very happy.

Philip was simply too much!

Why did he make her so touched?

The servant next to her smiled at this moment and said, “Young Madam, this picture has been hanging here since the day you married the young master.”

Wynn was surprised and moved.

It turned out that he had already thought about it from the day they got married.

‘Philip, for so many years, you’ve been concealing your identity and suffering in silence. Is it all because you love me?’

Wynn was moved to tears at this moment. Finally, she squatted on the floor and hugged her knees while crying.

Several servants panicked at this time, thinking that they had not taken good care of Wynn.

“Young Madam, don’t.cry. Did we do something wrong?”

The leading servant knelt, and several other servants behind her followed suit.

Seeing this, Wynn quickly got up. She held them up while saying, “What are you doing? It has nothing to do with you. I was just thinking of the past. All of you, get up quickly.”

The servants dared not get up. They lowered their heads and said, “If you don’t smile, we dare not stand up.”

Hearing that, Wynn became anxious and said, “Oh, don’t act like that. Get up quickly.”

However, no matter what Wynn said, they just refused to stand up.

Wynn was almost dying of anxiety.

At this moment, Philip walked in through the front door with his hands in his trouser pockets. Seeing this scene, he frowned slightly and asked, “What’s going on?”

Wynn quickly trotted over, took Philip’s arm, and said, “Phil, hurry and tell them to stand up. I just accidentally thought of the past and cried a little but they became like that.”

When Philip heard that, he glanced at the wedding photo on the wall and asked with a smirk, “Is it because of that?”

Wynn instantly blushed and hammered Philip with her small fists while saying, “Oh, you’re so bad. I’m going to ignore you!”

Philip put his arms around Wynn’s small waist, glanced at the servants kneeling on the floor, and said, “All of you, get up. Pass along the order to listen to the young madam’s orders in the future.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Several servants stood up with hands in front of their stomachs. They slowly withdrew from the hall.

Only Philip and Wynn were left in the hall.

The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.

Chapter 2008
Wynn’s face was hot as she quickly pulled away from Philip’s arms. She randomly picked up a jade-colored conch and asked, “What’s this?”

Philip glanced at it and replied, “Mediterranean Jade Conch. It’s a gift from someone, said to be worth tens of millions.”

“What? Tens of millions?”

Wynn was shocked and hurriedly put the jade conch in her hand back in its place for fear of breaking it.

Then, she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

This small object was already wonh tens of millions.

In that case, in Philip’s hall with hundreds of objects, was it…

Wynn dared not continue her line of thought.

Philip walked over, took Wynn’s delicate little hand, looked into her beautiful eyes very seriously, and said, “Wynnie, what I once promised you will definitely come true. Now, you’re the young madam of the Clarke family and this is your home.”

Wynn looked up at Philip with reddened eyes. Her lips trembled slightly, and she stood on tiptoes, pressing her lips on Philip’s mouth.

A moment of tenderness.

After Philip left his residence, he went to see Lydia Jensen, Theo Zander, Victor Bell, and the rest.

Lydia was not afraid of the unfamiliar and walked around everywhere as if it were her backyard. She was talking and exclaiming non-stop.

On the other hand, Theo and Victor sat in the living room of a courtyard, not daring to move at all.

The two exchanged a glance with eyes full of horror.

They knew Philip was not simple, but not to this extent.

“Theo, how powerful do you think Mr. Clarke’s family is?” Victor could not hold back his curiosity and asked.

He was slightly older than Theo and had dispensed all formalities.

Theo smiled and said, “Victor, I don’t know either. This is also my first time here with Young Master Clarke. To be honest, I still can’t accept it until now.”

Victor smiled and said, “You’ve been with Mr. Clarke for quite some time. Why do you know so little about his background?”

Theo shook his head and said, “Young Master Clarke has always kept a low profile. I just know he’s very powerful, but as for how powerful he really is, I have no idea. Victor, we should keep the details about him a secret.”

Victor nodded.

At this moment, Philip stepped in and saw that Theo and Victor were both here. He smiled and

said, “All here?”

Theo and Victor quickly stood up like students seeing their teacher. They stood aside and smiled flatteringly while saying, “Young Master Clarke, have a seat.”

Philip glanced at them and made no comment.

At this moment, Lydia ran down from the second floor, full of joy and excitement. She threw herself into Philip’s arms like a clingy girl, put her arms around Philip’s waist, raised her head, and exclaimed sweetly, “Brother Philip, you’re finally here. Hurry up and bring me out to have fun. Your home is so big and luxurious.”

Philip rolled his eyes at her, told her to let go, and said, “How can a girl like you casually hug another man?”

Lydia pursed her lips, stuck out her tongue at Philip, and said, “Brother Philip, you know very well that I like you.”

When Victor and Theo heard this, they quickly looked elsewhere and plugged their ears.

Seeing this, Philip gave Lydia a brotherly glare and said, “Nonsense. If Sister Wynn hears about this, I’ll have to beg for her forgiveness.”

Lydia paid no heed and made a face. Then, she put her hands behind her back, stood on tiptoes, and said, “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Brother Philip, bring me out to have fun. I’ve never seen such a city on the sea before.”

Chapter 2009
Philip rolled his eyes at Lydia and said, “Go outside on your own for a while. I have something to say to them.”

Lydia was not an ignorant girl either. She agreed and went out joyfully while yelling, “In that case, I’ll look for Sister Wynn.”

Philip smiled and said, “It’s up to you.”

After Lydia’s figure left his sight, Philip sat on the sofa and took a sip of the tea made by the servant.

Theo and Victor stood aside respectfully at this moment, not daring to make a sound.

Philip laughed and said, “Why are you guys so uptight? Sit down, I have something to tell you.”

Victor and Theo glanced at each other before they sat down but still sat properly like elementary school children.

Philip did not pay attention but served them tea instead.

Theo and Victor accepted it with fear and trepidation, not knowing if they should drink it or not.

Who would have expected that the mighty Theo Zander of Riverdale and Master Bell of Uppercreek would behave like schoolchildren at the moment?

Philip did not delay any further and went straight to the point, “I’ll arrange for someone to send you back tomorrow. After you return, do a few things for me.”

When Theo and Victor heard these words, their expressions became serious.

“Young Master Clarke, what do I need to do?”

Theo put down the teacup and asked seriously.

Philip said, “You stay in Riverdale and continue to send people to monitor Martin and Bernard Johnston. If there’s any movement, take them down directly. You don’t have to be concerned about my reputation! In addition, arrange for someone to contact Nigel Lambert in Cloudside. Tell him to take an inventory of all the manpower and properties in Cloudside and wait for my instructions.”

Hearing that, Theo nodded and said, “Okay, I understand.”

Philip hummed and said, “Also, take good care of Anne Foster and Tiger Zander in the hospital. I won’t bring her to the island for the time being. The situation here is a little tricky and I need to deal with some problems. When the time is almost ripe, I’ll ask you to pick her up. As for Tiger, depending on the situation at that time, Fulton may bring him back personally. When the time comes, you can just release him.”

Theo nodded as he held up his teacup and took a sip.

“What about me? Mr. Clarke, what do I need to do?” Victor asked quickly, not to be outdone.

Philip said, “On the Uppercreek side, you and Hoyt Luther can take inventory of the properties and forces that you can use. Then, do business as usual while awaiting my instructions.”

Victor nodded and said, “Understood.”

After that, Philip got up and wanted to leave when he suddenly turned around and asked, “By the way, did you find out anything new about Bowen Roy as I told you to?”

With a gloomy face, Theo shook his head and said, “Young Master Clarke, Bowen Roy has been missing for several months with no news at all as if he has disappeared into thin air. Should I send more people to follow up?”

Philip shook his head, took a breath, and said, “Forget it, you may stop.”

He did not really intend to find out anything either.

After that, Philip left this place.

After Philip left, Victor breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked, “Bowen Roy? Is that the former lord of the Penhart region?”

Theo smiled and said with a nod, “That’s right.”

Victor gasped and said, “Unbelievable. Mr. Clarke has even taken Bowen under his command?”

“Don’t you know who Young Master Clarke is by now? Just this family, just this island…” Theo said smugly.

Victor thought for a while and glanced at this courtyard.

Yes, this courtyard alone was more luxurious and magnificent than several of his houses in Uppercreek.

When he returned, he would hire people to renovate his house according to this style.

Chapter 2010
Meanwhile, the line of sight shifted to the branch Clarke family on Arcadia Island.

The entire Clarke family was divided into the main and branch family. They lived on the same island, but the main family was located in the central area of Arcadia Island, sitting on a sprawling mountain, the Zion Mountain!

The castle where the main Clarke family lived was also built on Zion Mountain.

As for the branch family, although also within Clarke Manor, there was a clear geographical division between the two.

The branch family was located on the western side of Clarke Manor.

At this moment, in the solemn and vast chieftain’s side hall of the branch family, a heated discussion was taking place!

The old masters of the branch family were gathered together.

Though there were seven seats, only four people were seated at the moment.

That was because Connor, Allen, and Wilfred were all absent at this time.

To be more precise, they had been detained by the young master of the main family!

At this moment, the remaining four people in charge of the branch family were furious.

Bang!

“Insolence! This is simply outrageous! How dare that damn brat of the main family do this to the branch family? Does he think there’s no one in the branch family? He’s too arrogant to dare to detain three of our persons in charge at once!”

One of them was an old man with a hooked nose wearing a blue martial arts uniform. He slammed his palm on the sandalwood tea table angrily and roared.

The table shattered apart under his hands!

Although only half a meter in size, this tea table was worth millions!

This old man with a hooked nose was called Wade Clarke.

He was the only martial arts practitioner among all the power holders of the branch family. He was in his 50s this year, but his physique remained sturdy and masculine!

He was mighty like a tiger!

Compared to the other three elders of the branch family who obviously looked frail and greasy, he looked very imposing.

Moreover, he was in charge of the branch family’s guards!

He was the leader of the branch family’s external guards.

He was also a renowned figure among the people of his generation.

The Clarke family had a strict hierarchy.

Every lineage would have a leader elected.

Furthermore, those individuals who carried a certain weight would be conferred status to distinguish a lineage or generation.

For example, Gerard Clarke whose entire lineage was destroyed because they provoked Philip before, also used to have some status in the branch family.

“That’s right! Philip has gone too far! How dare he detain Sixth Uncle?! My subordinates reported to me that all his limbs have been broken by Philip! Wilfred’s arms and legs were also not spared!”

Another old man with a chubby figure was also full of anger at the moment, his face covered with a layer of frost!

“We must seek revenge for this! Otherwise, how can the branch family gain a foothold in the Clarke family?” the chubby old man added and gritted his teeth.

The chubby old man was called Salem Clarke. He was the head of his lineage.

“Yes, both of you are right. If we just let it go, how will the branch family still have a foothold in

the Clarke family?”

Another old man with a slightly thin figure tightly grasped the corner of the table with his right hand. He had a gloomy and angry expression.
