Chapter 518
The First Heir
Cynthia rolled her eyes at Melody and admonished with a smile, âOkay, donât talk nonsense.â
Melody laughed evilly and said, âOur dear Cynthia Larson belongs to the Larson family of Fernvale.
Impressive, right?â
Larson family of Fernvale?!
Suddenly!
Philipâs pupils constricted as he stared at Cynthia with a death stare.
His motherâs family!
The Larson family!
Melody saw that Philip was dumbfounded, so she pushed him amusedly and said, âDonât be so
exaggerated. Everyone knows the Larson family of Fernvale. Donât act as if youâre hearing it for the first
time.â
Cynthia also frowned and looked at Philip in bewilderment. This man was acting strange. Why did she
feel that the look in his eyes was a little odd?
Philipâs heart was shaken. It took him a long while before he recovered. His eyes were already red.
He did not expect to meet people from his motherâs side of the family. Perhaps Cynthia might even be
related to him by blood.
Philip had attempted to contact the Larson family of Fernvale before but failed.
There seemed to be a huge force in the dark that kept preventing him from contacting the Larson
family.
It was because of this that Philip gradually forgot about this matter.
However, Philip never gave up on trying to contact them because he had to make sure of one thing.
âIâve only watched the news about the Larson family on TV before, but I didnât expect to see someone
from that big family today. Sure enough, Iâm impressed.â Philip smiled courteously.
It was an unexpected windfall.
Cynthia returned his smile with a few words of reply before she gritted her teeth, glared at Melody, and
said in mock anger, âYou have such a big mouth.â
Melody stuck her tongue out and paid her no heed.
A few minutes later.
In the Peach Blossom private room of Drunken Immortal Court, Melody took Philipâs arm and entered
with Cynthia.
âMel, here!â As soon as they entered, they heard someone calling Melodyâs name.
Melody followed the voice and saw that the private room was already filled with several people.
The person who called out to Melody was none other than Simon Luther, the guy who had been
pursuing her before.
Simon naturally saw Philip standing next to Melody and also noticed that Melody had her arm hooked
around Philipâs!
How did this happen?
Were they?
No way! Impossible!
Philip also noticed Simon and gave him a polite smile.
However, when this smile fell into Simonâs eyes, it was seen as blatant mocking and showing off!
He was very angry when he saw Melody leading Philip to sit at the other side. He sullenly hung his
head before he finished his drink that was on the table in one gulp!
âYoung Master Luther, whatâs going on? Melody seems to be ignoring you.â
A guy sitting next to Simon asked curiously at this moment.
âMind your own business!â
Simon was already in a bad mood, so he raged at this time.
There were no less than ten people in the private room and not everyone knew each other, so they
formed their little circles while playing and chatting.
In general, all those present were the boys and girls from rich and wealthy families.
âMel, youâre finally here, Iâve been waiting for you.â
The person who spoke was a woman about Melodyâs age. She looked quite pretty, but far inferior
compared to Melody and Cynthia.
It was mainly due to her heavy makeup.
âThis is my university classmate, Marilyn Chester, a native of Riverdale. Sheâs the one who organized
this gathering. We havenât seen each other for a long time.â
Melody smiled as she introduced her to Philip.
However, she did not even look at Philip but glanced at Cynthia instead and asked, âIs this the best
friend you mentioned? Wow, what a great beauty!â
While speaking, she stood up, took Melodyâs hand, and drew other peopleâs attention in the private
room. âHey, stop for a moment. This is Melody Zander, one of the four golden flowers of Riverdale that
Iâve mentioned to you before. Sheâs also the daughter of our underground king, Theo Zander. How
about it, isnât she pretty?
âAnd this is Miss Zanderâs best friend, the one and only goddess! From the Larson family of Fernvale!â
Marilyn put her hands on Cynthiaâs shoulders and said with a smile.
She knew Melody, and she also knew that Melody had a best friend from the Larson family of Fernvale!
That was a very prestigious family!
Although they had suddenly withdrawn from many markets all over the country more than ten years
ago, their influence was still great.
âHello everyone, Iâm Cynthia Larson,â Cynthia said graciously, her sweet smile falling in everyoneâs
eyes like a dream.
Everyone stood up and returned sincere smiles and warm greetings.
âHello everybody, Iâm Melody Zander.â
Melody inclined slightly and introduced herself in a low voice before looking at Philip suddenly. She
then said, âThis is my boyfriend, Philip Clarke!â
Everyone merely nodded slightly without even looking directly at Philip.
Philip did not say anything but sat down next to Melody. However, he clearly felt that everyone was
looking at him in an unfriendly manner.
âHaha, a country bumpkin is shameless enough to come in here.â
Instantly, words full of sarcasm and contempt rang out in the room.
Melody was being complimented because of her fatherâs influence, but there was no need to flatter
him.
