The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 16

 

“Causing trouble?” Anna frowned. Her aura became colder as the temperature around fell by a few degrees. Whoever dared to cause trouble at Civil Gallery must have eaten a bear’s heart! When Allison saw Anna’s reaction, her mouth curved into a cruel smile. She pointed to Philip, who had his hands stuffed in his pockets as he stood leisurely, and said, “That’s right. It’s that migrant worker over there. He’s not only causing trouble but was even delusional, saying that he wants to see you. I scolded him for a bit, but he said I didn’t have the right to be at Civil Gallery. Isn’t he an idiot?”

Anna glanced coldly at Allison. Although she was not fond of Allison’s condescending tone, the girl was still one of her people, so she kept quiet.

Anna then strutted elegantly over to Philip and asked with a straight face, “You’re the one causing trouble?” Philip glanced at this woman in front of him. She’s Anna Carter? Not bad. Gorgeous and very endearing. Philip did not answer but quietly took his phone out. Allison was furious when she saw Philip’s nonchalant expression. She pointed at him and bellowed, “Manager, look! He’s blatantly disrespecting you! I’ll call security immediately to throw him out.” Anna nodded. She, too, was unwilling to deal with a person like this. She had just come out of her office to welcome an honored guest at the door, the new owner of Civil Gallery, Mr. Clarke!

If there was any delay, she might even lose her position. Anna had never seen the new owner. She only had his phone number. And it was only after begging President George Thomas for the longest time that he finally gave it to her. “Allison, come with me to welcome a guest. Our new owner is coming to check on the work progress.” Anna turned over to Allison.

her pocket. The caller ID showed that it was from Mr. Clarke! “Hello, Mr. Clarke. Have you reached? I’ll be out immediately to receive you.” Anna’s tone instantly changed from ice-cold to sweet and respectful. Yet, the voice from the other end sounded displeased. “Look behind you.” Look behind? Anna was stunned and immediately turned around. Only about seven workers were painting the walls behind her. Oh, there

the blue struck her! It was him! He was the new owner! Without another word, she ran over to Philip and bowed ninety degrees in apology. “Mr.

legs were trembling in fright, and her palms were covered in sweat. “Mr. Clarke, please forgive me. I didn’t know you would be here early.” Anna straightened her back, but was still bowing slightly. She looked terrified. This was the new owner! A prominent figure who held the world in his hands. Riverdale City’s wealthiest George Thomas had had to come here personally to buy the gallery from the previous owner. It should be noted that the previous owner was a vicious man in the city, the underground emperor who was influential in both the legal and the underground world, Theo Zander! Who was Theo Zander? Not a single person in Riverdale City did not know of him! Born as a ruffian, he had climbed his way up, step by step, to the throne of the underground world! Both the legal world and the mafias feared this man. There was nothing he cannot do in Riverdale City with just a few words. Hence, after serving Theo for so many years, Anna’s social standing had risen as she got to meet more powerful figures.

her chastity that she had protected over twenty years to this man! All for the words that Theo had once told her after he was drunk one day. ‘I, Theo Zander, have only managed to reach this spot today, all thanks to President George’s support! However, President George is only here to keep his young master company and kill time. He had founded a company and became the wealthiest man in the city.’ It was frightening! Just too frightening! Philip calmly glanced at Anna, then shook his head. “Forget it. Let this be a lesson learned.” At that moment, Allison just happened to return with two security personnel. She walked over with a sneer and pointed at Philip. “That’s him, throw him out! And while you’re at it, search him to see if he has stolen anything from our gallery. With that sneaky look in his eyes, he must be a thief!” Philip’s gaze went cold as his eyes narrowed. He let out a cold snort and said to the woman beside him, “Deal with it.” Anna’s body straightened up. With glaring eyes, she walked over to Allison in her high heels and lifted her hand! Slap! The crisp sound of a slap resonated throughout the whole room! “The nerve of you! Who dares to throw Mr. Clarke out?” Anna glared furiously at Allison, threatening to tear her apart. Allison held a hand to her immediately swelling cheek, asking incredulously, “Manager, why did you hit me? I didn’t throw Mr. Clarke out.” Allison was infuriated. She was fuming from receiving a slap from her manager for no apparent reason. Hence, she directed her anger to Philip and yelled, “What are you guys standing there for? Throw this trash out this instant!” As soon

you’re fired! Get lost immediately!” Anna bellowed as she pointed to the door. She would not let this idiot drag herself
