Chapter 310
The First Heir
âHello Mr. Clarke, this is my name card. Iâve heard some things about Hutten Pharmaceutical.â
Vernon said frankly. He did not plan to hide.
When Philip heard that, he finally understood. He nodded and asked, âWhat do you want from me?â
Vernon almost screamed out in excitement. He said, âYouâre misunderstanding me, Mr. Clarke. I just
want to get to know you.â
Philip smiled and said, âAlright, Iâll take your name card. Iâll look for you when I need anything. Of
course, you can look for me too if anything arises. Youâre not too bad.â
When he heard Philip praising him, Vernon felt like he had just eaten a spoonful of honey. He nodded
his head and bowed.
After a while, the group of them left Hodgson Tower.
After they got out, Wynn grabbed Philip and asked curiously, âDo you know the chairman of Hodgson?â
Philip shook his head. âNo,â he said.
Wynn wanted to ask something else, but Martha started to urge them impatiently. âWhat are you doing?
Get into the car.â
Wynn stopped asking any more questions and got into the car.
When Philip was about to get inside, Joel hinted at Philip. The latter then said to Wynn, âWynnie,
please wait for me. Iâm going to smoke for a bit.â
Wynn nodded. Martha muttered angrily, âItâll be the best if you die from smoking!â
Philip did not say anything. He followed Joel to a small garden nearby.
Joel was still pretending to be amiable in front of Wynn. However, when there was no one around them,
his face fell as he said rudely to Philip, âPhilip, I hope you leave Wynn. This is my advice to you.â
Philip frowned. Then, he could not help but laugh out loud. âJoel, who are you to say this to me? Wynn
is my wife.â
âSo what? Iâm telling you honestly, I love Wynn. I came back to take Wynn overseas. Youâre with her
because you crave what youâre not worthy of,â Joel said slowly.
Philip placed his hands into his pockets and said coldly, âWynn told me that it was all in the past. You
still donât want to forget about it? A man should be more magnanimous, and we should all look forward.
Oh, let me remind you too. Donât cross me, or else youâll die a horrible death.â
Joel laughed sarcastically and said, âYouâre so confident. I wonder how Wynn fell in love with a good-
for-nothing like you. However, let me warn you that you should just leave Wynn. You canât give her
anything! Only I, Joel Harris, can give her anything she wants.â
âAnything she wants?â Philip was puzzled.
Joel nodded. âAnything! Luxury cars, mansions, money, branded bags, and watches! Plus, a bright
future! Can you give any of those to her?â
While he said that, he lifted his arm. He had the latest Cartier watch on his wrist. It cost more than 40
million bucks.
Then, Joel continued, âYouâre not a match for her. Only a person with my wealth and connections can
give her a bright future. Do you understand?â
âYeah.â Philip nodded, then smiled. âHowever, Iâm sorry, I canât do it.â
âDonât you ignore whatâs good for you!â
Joel was enraged. He was talking nicely to him. Did he not understand the human language?
However, Philip did not pay attention to him. He turned around and walked away.
Joel gritted his teeth and mumbled, âAlright, I have all the time in the world to play with you.â
When they got home, Wynn went back into her bedroom.
Martha berated Philip in the living room furiously. Then, she turned around and returned to her
bedroom.
Philip tiptoed to the room and opened the door quietly. When he saw Wynn lying on her side in bed, he
asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Wynn grunted softly. âItâs fine. Iâm just a little tired.â
Philip was feeling heartbroken. He walked over to her and helped her remove her high heels. He said
slowly, âUm, Wynnie, I was wrong just now. I shouldnât have lost my temper toward you. I shouldâve
believed youâ¦â
Before he could finish, Wynn sat upright and held Philip tightly. She sobbed, âPhilip, I love you. I really
do. Please donât do this again, okay? Thereâs nothing between me and Joel.â
There was a smile on Philipâs face. He hugged Wynn softly and said, âOkay, I promise.â
The two of them held each other for a while and smiled after looking at each other. Philip touched
Wynnâs nose and wiped her face for her. Suddenly, he asked, âRight, whatâs going on with your
company? Iâll see if I can help.â
Wynn sighed. She looked anxious when she said, âYou might not be able to help me. Our collaboration
with Turnerâs has begun, but none of the pharmaceutical factories in the city wants to work with us. Iâm
so frustrated. I donât know why, but even our old clients all stopped working with us.
âNow, we have a lot of orders, but weâve lost about 200 million.â
Wynn looked anxious.
âDo you need money?â Philip asked.
Wynn shook her head before nodding. She said, âWe have to pay the penalty, and itâs about 600
million! We didnât have any outlines with the collaboration with Turnerâs branch, and Mr. Hall is worried
sick!â
Philip frowned. 600 million was not a small amount.
âDonât worry, Wynnie. Iâll help you,â Philip grabbed Wynnâs hands and said calmly.
âReally?â
Wynnâs eyes glistened with tears. She was excited and hopeful. However, after she thought about it,
she said, âAlright, thank you, Philip. I know youâre worried about me. However, you canât do anything
about this.â
Wynn smiled bitterly.
Even if Philip was rich, could he help her with the penalty of 600 million?
Apparently not.
Philip knew what Wynn was worried about, so he did not say anything.
After chatting with Wynn, he made up an excuse to visit Mila in the hospital and went out.
After he got out of the house, he called George.
âOld Man George.â
The call went through.
âWhat do you need, Young Master?â George was still as respectful as always.
âBuy Beacon Pharmaceutical for me. Also, tell our pharmaceutical companies to work with Beacon.â
