Chapter 192
The First Heir
âWait for my signal. I donât like the Yates.â Philip replied to the message in secret and put away his
phone.
George was over at the chairmanâs office in Apex Group. After he got the message, he lifted his
eyebrow and asked his secretary to announce this.
As long as Philip opened his mouth, he would make sure to bankrupt the Yates.
These blind fools must have crossed the young master.
âPhilip, what are you doing?â Wynn noticed Philip had been playing with his phone the entire time,
which is why she asked curiously.
âOh, itâs nothing. Professor Turner told me heâll arrange Milaâs surgery for next Wednesday,â Philip
replied.
âReally?â Wynn was excited. She grabbed onto Philipâs hand emotionally.
Mila was her everything. Which mother would want to see their own child suffer?
âYeah.â Philip patted the back of Wynnâs hand lovingly.
âHey, did you hear that the Oasis development project in the south of Riverdale was developed by the
richest man in Riverdale, George Thomas? Tedâs making all of us proud by taking that project!â
âRight? I heard that the boss behind this project is a world-class nouveau riche. Heâs f*cking loaded!â
âTedâs future is going to be so bright. Itâs obvious that Bob wants to train him as the heir of the third
generation. We have to curry more favors with him.â
The group started chattering excitedly. Their conversation was starting to get heated.
They wanted to be Ted Yates so badly.
âHey, whatâs wrong with that useless bum? I heard that the Yates donât like him that much.â
Suddenly, someone shifted the conversation to Philip.
âYou donât know? Bobâs granddaughter, which is Wynn over there, got pregnant before marriage and
the child belongs to that spineless coward. You should know that this is something extremely shameful
in the Yates Village. She ruined the family name and isnât chaste at all!â
âNo wonder! So from what you said, Wynn is not a good woman too. Is she a⦠you know? Sheâs so
shameless for getting pregnant before getting married.â
In a flash, everyone started looking over. Philip frowned from their gazes.
These people were so slanderous.
Especially those middle-aged women over there. Their verbal abuse would make anyone feel agitated!
Wynn lowered her head even more.
Three years ago, she became the shame of the family because of this matter. Everyone started
pointing fingers at her.
Today, these people were digging out the past again. They were stabbing her in the heart with knives.
Philipâs face fell as he squeezed Wynnâs hand. Then, he got up and walked over to the middle-aged
women who were gossiping. He carried a chair over and sat down. He chuckled and said, âAunties, do
you know what kind of people will die the most horrible deaths?â
When the middle-aged women saw Philip sitting at their table, they felt a little guilty.
However, they were not scared. They rolled their eyes and shook their heads. Then, they raised their
eyebrows and looked at him in contempt.
They had already seen everything just now. Philip was just a good-for-nothing.
âYouâre just a piece of trash. What right do you have to sit here and talk to us?â One of the women
snorted.
Smash!
Philip took a wine bottle and smashed it on the ground before yelling angrily, âDo you not f*cking know
whatâs good for you?! If not for the fact that youâre my seniors, would you believe that Iâll slap each and
every one of you?
âYou can put anything in your mouth but donât you dare spout rubbish. Watch your mouths. If not, donât
blame me for not going easy on you! Nosy b*tches!â
Philipâs face was cold, but flames were burning in his eyes.
All of the middle-aged women on the table were horrified by Philipâs imposing manner. They shut their
mouths while feeling guilty. They did not dare to say anything more.
However, when he turned his back to them, they started cursing Philip and Wynn furiously. They
wanted so badly to beat them up.
Philip went back to his seat.
Wynn rolled her eyes at Philip and said, âWhy did you go against them? They know nothing.â
Philip smiled lazily and said, âThey were spouting rubbish. They need to be taught a lesson. Youâre
Philip Clarkeâs wife. Iâll rip out the mouths of whoever dares to bully you.â
Wynnâs heart was warm and fuzzy when she heard Philip saying that, despite it not being something
pleasant to hear.
Jess was sitting on the other side. She glanced over at Philip.
It seemed that this man adored his wife very much.
He was not that bad.
Back to the main hall.
At this moment, everyone was talking about the Oasis development project heatedly. Naturally, Ted
became the center of everyoneâs attention.
Bob was greedy, so he had drunk a bit too much.
At the same time, a middle-aged man ran into the main hall from the outer courtyard. His face was
excited and frantic.
âO-Old master! Something big happened!â The middle-aged man was Bobâs secretary. He was
responsible for all the external affairs of the Yatesâ businesses. He was the one who made
announcements if anything happened.
Bob frowned and said unhappily, âWhy are you being so frantic?â
The middle-aged man did not even wipe away his sweat before saying, âOne⦠One billion! The
company just got an investment of one billion bucks!â
Suddenly!
The room fell silent.
No one could believe their ears.
An investment of one billion bucks?
