The First Heir (First Heir)
chapters 181-190



Chapter 181


"What are you trying to do?" Philip's face turned cold, and he began to feel anxious. He knows about Giada's methods. This woman did not hesitate to get rid of her rivals—including her own son. 


When he was eight years old, he asked someone to run him over with a car. There's only one reason. It was because he was afraid that he might become a hindrance in the process of taking over Clarkes. A tiger, though cruel, will not eat its cubs.


However, in Giada's eyes, strength was his only priority. When Giada mentions Philip and his daughter's marriage, he begins to panic. This was also the main reason why Philip did not reveal his identity. "Don't worry, they are the daughter-in-law and the Clark family lineage.


If you beg me, I'll let them go." Giada's smile will make anyone cold. That's very offensive. "I warn you, don't you dare touch Wynn and Mila. Otherwise, I will make you regret this," Philip said coldly. Giada chuckled softly. He took out two embroidered boxes from the coffee table drawer.


They look smooth. There is also a shiny crown peak in the box. He smiled and said, "This is for Wynn and Mila. It's a gift meeting from Aunt Giada." Philip's face fell. He didn't take the boxes. He simply asked coldly, "Current, I don't know what you're planning, but I can tell you with confidence that they don't know who I am. I'm also warning you, if you dare to have an idea about the Wynn.


and Mila, I don't mind letting you try my methods! "Also, I advise you to come back soon. Riverdale is not the place where you should be" Philip said. "I'll be here for a few days.


Don't worry, I haven't done anything to them. But remember, if you want to protect them, you have to be strong enough," Giada said. Philip clenched his fists. Then, he let go of her and said calmly, "Don't underestimate me. I know who you are, Giada Wallis. Ever since you got married to this family, I know. 


I've had all kinds of plans to counter your attacks. If you don't believe it, you can try. This is my last warning to you, if you dare to touch Wynn and Mila, you must plan how you will go


to get out of here." … Giada stood at the entrance and saw Philip leave.


He kept repeating what Philip told him. That guy has grown up. It turned out that he had known about his true self since he was very young. He wondered how he had hidden it for so many years.


 Is this Clarke? Philip finally grew his fangs. The lion that had been holding back his anger had finally awakened. Giada smiled and muttered to himself, "This is indeed Roger's son. He even has his own little ways. I underestimated.


I think he's just a piece of trash that's going to bear everything. I don't expect him to be ready. " After Philip returned to the hospital, he sat down on the hospital bed and looked at the sound asleep Mila. His eyes were filled with fatherly love. "Come, I won't let anyone hurt you" Philip murmured.


 The night was like water. It's intertwined with a past of love and hate. Today is Old Master Yates' 70th birthday party. Early in the morning, Paula asks her daughter Samantha to pick up Martha and her family at Old Johnston Manor. Martha's face looked gloomy, let alone seeing Samantha's proud look. It was as if his face was covered by a layer of ice. "Aunt Martha, where are Wynn and Philip? Tell them to hurry, I'm in a hurry."


Samatha dressed in style. She's like a modern woman from television. Her hair was curly, and she was wearing very expensive clothes.


He held the newest Gucci bag in his hand, and there was a pair of sunglasses on his face. He sat on the sofa in the living room violently. He did not even take off his sunglasses despite being inside the room. Samantha looked around this old manor. His eyes behind his sunglasses were filled with hatred. 


The corner of his lips also curved with disdain. He muttered, "This place smells moldy. Old houses are the worst. I don't know how anyone can live here." Martha was walking while holding a bowl of fruits. When he heard Samantha mutter, his face fell. What bitch! She's just like her mother! He would be sick everywhere if he didn't boast. 


Judging from her clothes, she wondered how many men Samantha had slept with before judging her current husband. "Hey, Sammy, why isn't your mom here?" Martha said with a forced smile on her face. Samantha fanned herself with her hands


and replied nonchalantly, "My mother goes alone. He said you guys didn't have cars, so he asked me to pick you all up." How poor!


How could his mother have a sister like this? He's too poor! Did his uncle not make money in the organization? What losers! Martha forced a smile on her lips and pretended to laugh. At this time, Wynn and Philip went home. 


Arriving inside the house, Samantha was impatient to grab her bag to walk out of the house. He said in a commanding tone, "Why did you just come back at this hour? I've been waiting for five minutes.


This stupid place is stuffy. It smells like mushrooms too. Let's go now. My car's outside." Samantha couldn't even wait another second. When he saw Wynn, his face turned cold. Wynn was better than him in every way since they were young.


Her academic results were better, she was prettier, and her work was even better than hers. This made Samantha feel less of herself. But that all changed when Wynn got married. A proud princess married a helpless coward. 


Besides, his life is getting worse. When Samantha saw Philip standing next to Wynn, her eyes were filled with contempt and humiliation. This guy is so useless. She was just a stinking stone from a shit hole compared to her husband. What a piece of trash!


Chapter 182


She is Aunt Paula's only child. He was alone and looked down on everyone. When they were young, Samantha was jealous of Wynn. No matter what it was, he had to compare himself to Wynn. "Cousin, please give us a minute. We'll be ready soon" Wynn said apologetically.


Samantha raised the corner of her lips with an arrogant expression on her face. He shouted at Philip, "Side, useless trash. Why are you standing there?!" Philip smiled and stepped out in silence. Samantha pushed him abruptly, patted his clothes in disdain, and muttered, "You stink." After Samantha left, the mood of the whole family was not good. Martha slammed her hand on


table and started cursing, "What does Samantha mean?! What the fuck! He dared to come to my house and complain about it! What should he show you? Her husband is rich? He even said that our house smelled musty. I I'm so mad!"


 Martha's anger erupted like a volcano. He had anticipated that there would be some ridicule from his relatives as he would return to his family home today. Wynn also felt very helpless, but he still comforted his mother and said, "Mom, just keep it to yourself.


He's trying to come get us. Let's try to be more patient when faced with whatever is to come. ." "Yes, ma'am, don't lower ourselves to their level." Philip agreed with a smile. When Martha heard Philip's words, she immediately directed her frustration at him and pointed at Philip as if she was ready to make a fuss. "It's all because of you. If only you were rich.


Look at Paula's family, their lives are so comfortable. They drive luxury cars and live in villas. It was all because they had a rich son-in-law. If you compare it to our home ... Sigh ... If you work a little harder, Charles and I won't be looked down upon by anyone."


Martha has no intention of stopping her abuse of Phillip. He asked in a displeased tone, "What are you doing here? Didn't I ask you not to come?" Martha suddenly realized that Philip had something in his hands. 'He wants to go with us?' That's not good, definitely not! If Philip leaves, he will become a laughingstock.


"Mom, why don't you let Philip go? If Philip can't go, I won't go either" Wynn said as he looked at Philip. "Last night, Wynn had made a decision. , he would have absolute confidence in Philip. He was his wife, and he would stand by her unconditionally. Martha overflows on Martha.


He pointed at Wynn and yelled at Wynn even though he was out of breath, "Wynnie, are you trying to kill me?! I'll be humiliated by our family if you bring this damn bag with us! Charles, Charles!


Come on out, Philip wants to come with us!" When Charles heard a noise outside, he walked out of the study. After he understood the matter, he said coldly, "Philip, you don't need to leave. Go back to the hospital to accompany Mila." Philip thought about it for a moment and nodded


helpless. "OK, as you wish." After that, Philip put his things aside and intended to leave. However, Wynn immediately grabbed Philip's hand and said correctly, "No! You should go with me today. If you don't go, I won't go." 


At that moment, Martha was so angry that she sat on the ground and looked like she was going to throw a tantrum. He howled, "How things have changed! My daughter who I have raised for over 20 years is siding with outsiders to bully her mother! Good Lord! Ah, why am I still alive?


Let me die now." After she yelled at Wynn, Martha got up and almost banged her head into the corner of the table. Fortunately, Philip acted quickly and grabbed Martha before her head touched the table. Yet.. Hit!


Martha slapped him, then pointed at Philip and said in a cruel tone, "Go, get out of my house. I don't have a useless daughter-in-law like you." "Mom, why did you hit Philip?!" Wynn's surprised. He hurriedly pulled Philip closer and shouted at Martha.


Martha continued to harass Phillip and threw the small embroidered box that Philip had brought before. He scolded, "You can go alone. Your father and I are not leaving!" Philip picked up the embroidered little box before he was dragged out of the house by an angry Wynn. They got into Samantha's car.


"Philip, are you okay? My mother was like that. Don't be mad at him. I'll apologize to you on his behalf," Wynn said sadly in the car. Philip grinned and rubbed his face. He smiled foolishly and said, "It's okay.


Fortunately, it's still here." Wynn looked at the small embroidered box in Philip's hand and rolled his eyes towards Philip. "You still think about this? Is this for Grandpa?" Philip nodded and said, "I asked someone to buy it a few days ago. 


Your grandfather would've loved it." Puffs! Samantha, who had been looking for an LV bag on her phone, observed through the rearview mirror. He laughed out loud and said mockingly, "Philip, what precious gift can this ugly little box hold. ?"


He said that with a look of disdain. After Samantha said that, she threw some boxes in the passenger seat at them and showed them off. "See what I bought for Grandpa ... Small part


95-year-old ginseng is worth 300,000 dollars, 800,000 dollars worth of purple clay pot tea sets, and jade pipes that are worth more than 400,000 dollars.


What is the value of your small box? About 10 bucks?"


Chapter 183


Samantha was so full of herself. When he saw Wynn's long face, he became even more arrogant. "Wynnie, how could you let Philip buy a present like this for Grandpa? If you don't have money, you can tell me.


Besides, I'm your cousin." With that said, Samantha took out her LV wallet from her Gucci bag, took out a bank card, and handed it to Wynn. "Hey, consider this my gift. There should be at least 10,000 dollars in this card.


That's all that's left after Frank bought me a handbag. Take it and get something worthy for Grandpa. You don't have to pay me back. It's just a small amount for me." Samantha's expression at that moment was filled with arrogance. In his eyes, Wynn was a joke. "Thank you, Samantha." Before Wynn could speak, Philip reached out and took the card from Samantha with a faint smile Samantha snorted and shook her head helplessly.


'How can one be so shameless?' Wynn glared at Philip. He was just about to speak, but Philip held his hand and said with a smile, "Samantha is kind, just accept it. I'll return the money to Samantha later." Philip doesn't want anything uncomfortable between Wynn and Samantha.


Wynn kept his mouth shut and agreed but his face burned. She never had a good relationship with Samantha but now that she took Samantha's money, it made her even more ashamed of herself. Samantha chuckled and said, "Philip, your skin is quite thick." After he said that, everyone fell silent.


 Philip held Wynn's hand with one hand and played the embroidered box with the other. What a ridiculous world. 'I have been ridiculed and looked down upon for a long time.


 No one knew that the embroidered box in my hand was more valuable than the accumulated wealth of the entire Yates family.' After a while, Martha Yates and Charles Johnston came out of the house. They got into the car reluctantly and refused to talk


a word for Philip. As soon as they got in, Martha started checking the car. 'This is indeed a nice car, very comfortable to sit on.' When we get back, I have to ask Ms. Chloe's contact information to Wynn.


Last time, he just gave us the car keys, but I still don't know where the car is.' Martha has done her research. It was a Maserati, a luxury car worth millions! If he left with that car, he would definitely get face!


If that didn't work out, he could only buy a car for two million. 'Definitely better than this car, and it should deflate Paula's vanity!' Shortly after, the car left and headed straight to Yates Village. 


Yates Courtyard is located on the East side of Yates Mountain Village. It was surrounded by mountains and rivers in the middle of the mountain. However, it is very suitable for elderly care. This is also the reason why Bob Yates chose to return to Yates Village. 


Bob Yates, the head of the Yates family, has been living in Yates Village since his retirement. He has been gardening and playing with his grandchildren. All four of her children lived up to her expectations, except for her third daughter, who married Charles and lived a normal life. The Yates family is one of the largest families in Riverdale.


They are deeply rooted there, especially Bob Yates who has many students who are now in the business and political world. He has a wide network and is very well connected. 


Therefore, as long as Bob Yates was alive and the Yates family was fine, it meant that the Yates family would continue to thrive. At that moment, Bob was at the complex looking at the mountain crossing in the distance. He was waiting for his children to return. 


For many years, he had not paid much attention to his third daughter. It was mainly because the family was humiliating the Yates family. Bob is an old man. His granddaughter became pregnant before marriage and eventually married a coward. There are rumors about the Yates family in the village and even in Riverdale.


Because of this, Bob severed his relationship with his third daughter out of anger and only saw her once a year. Every time she thinks about how Wynnie, who she's loved since she was a child, married a good-for-good


nothing, Bob's face will be covered in ice. She hears from her second daughter, Paula, that useless trash will also come to celebrate her birthday today. In the Yates family, there was a lot of gossip about the coward, and a lot of people wanted to see him embarrass himself.


Chapter 184


Bob didn't bother to stop it at all. After all, he disliked Philip very much, so he had to teach him a lesson. The trash needs to be made aware that no one can get into the door of the Yates family.


"Grandfather, not sure when the others will arrive. You should rest. I'll wait for them here." Eric, who was next to Bob, said that and showed a very good performance. Usually, Eric has a cold and arrogant temperament from head to toe. 


Bob nodded, looked at his little grandson fondly, and walked into the courtyard with the help of Eric and his staff made of black wood encrusted with gold thread. After he told Bob to come in, Eric came out again. At this moment, several young people were standing at the door.


They were all the younger generation of the Yates family. "Eric, what's the plan?" A young man, full of arrogance and wearing expensive clothes, said. He was the youngest son of Peter Yates, the eldest of the Yates family.


His name is Aaron Yates. He's the same age as Eric and they've been close since childhood. Therefore, their personalities are similar.


They are both rich playboys. Eric smiled coldly and said, "Let's inflict all sorts of insults on that useless Wynn and humiliate Wynn." Aaron nodded in agreement, a gloomy grin appearing at the corner of his mouth.


None of them liked Wynn because Wynn had a different last name. They feel like she excels at everything she does when they grow up, unlike them. Therefore, they intend to instill the fear of God in him today.


Philip should go down with him too! The only one who kept his mouth shut was a woman with a cold temper who stood beside them. That's Jess Yates, Peter Yates' second daughter. He's about the same age as Wynn,


but he's still single. He was annoyed by his cousin's ruse. He turned around and said coldly, "I'm leaving." "Cousin, comeon. Since we're here, just enjoy the show." Eric winks his eyes and smiles at her. jess'


eyebrows stiffen. After he thought about it, he stayed. He decides to help Wynn if necessary. After all, he considered Wynn to be his sister. To be honest, when Wynn got married, Jess was there too. 


He had never had a good feeling towards Philip. In his eyes, men were pigs unfit for him. After all, Jess is an accomplished student. She has obtained a master's degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is a true female academic tyrant.


 Therefore, to him, a man would never be as interesting as a book. That's why he's still single. At that moment, a black Lincoln Navigator drove into the complex.


Philip and Wynn got off first from the car, followed by Martha Yates and Charles Johnston. Wynn panicked when he saw Eric and the others standing at the door. He pulled Philip's hand slightly and asked in a low voice, "Philip, are you really alright? Otherwise, you can go back first."


 Wynn was deeply concerned that Philip would be humiliated and criticized. Although he was made aware that Philip's family was managing the Northern Sky Western Restaurant, in front of the established Yates family, it was still not enough. There were four children from the second generation of the Yates family. The eldest son, Peter, holds a high-level position in government.


He was a man with great strength. The second daughter, Paula, is married to a local businessman in Riverdale whose net worth is about three to four billion dollars. He is in the real estate business and has several connections.


 The fourth son, Samson, has successfully built his own business empire. He has expanded his business beyond Riverdale and established branches in eight important cities across the country. The core of his business was foreign trade. He has a billion dollars in assets.


 Philip squeezed Wynn's hand and said with a smile, "Wynnie, believe me. It's gonna be okay." The Yates family was nothing in Philip's eyes. The Yates family is indeed identical to ants when compared to him. If they are really brave


provoking him, Philip did not mind letting everyone present today know that he, Philip, was an insurmountable abyss for the Yates family. He is an untouchable taboo! Since the night Giada Wallis had been in contact with him, Philip was ready for the day when his true identity would be revealed.


Wynn thought for a moment and nodded. If things didn't work out, he would tell everyone that Philip's family was actually rich and ran the Northern Sky Western Restaurant. He hoped it would impress them.


 Martha saw her daughter still teasing Philip, so she was angry and snorted several times. Eric came over smiling and stabbed Philip. She sarcastically said, "Oh, isn't this my cousin's useless husband? You're here too, that's great.


It's been a long time. A rare guest." As soon as Philip looked up, he saw Eric's annoying face. It seemed like Eric could not wait to embarrass him. The Yates family was completely destroyed right down to its roots. 


The cousins around them, as well as the elders who heard the voice and came out to look at the commotion, all threw strange glances. Their expressions ranged from mocking, indifferent, and all sorts of eye-roll. They looked at Philip as if he was a clown. 


They thought that Philip would only endure their ridicule. A useless tramp has no right to speak. However, to everyone's surprise, Philip smiled calmly and said, "Eric, don't look at me with your dog's eyes. I don't like being stared at by flea-infested dogs."


Chapter 185


Everyone was astonished by what Philip had just said! Philip, a useless tramp, dared to talk to Eric like that? That was unexpected! This is good for-


no one is fighting! They were in the Yates Courtyard, which was ruled by the Yates family! Did he not consider the consequences of his actions? Eric's face was drowning. 


He had an arrogant attitude and said angrily, "Philip, you dare to berate me like that? You are the useless son-in-law of the Johnston family. Who do you think you are to talk to me like this?


Who are you here today for Grandpa's birthday celebration? I won't let you through this door today! Nonsense nonsense, who do you think you are?!" Eric's upset. He had not expected a useless person like Philip to berate him like that.


It was an insult to him and an insult to the Yates family! Aaron agrees with Eric. He pointed at Philip arrogantly and shouted, "Quickly and apologetically to Eric. Otherwise, you will not be welcomed at the Yates Courtyard today.


 Did you hear that, you useless tramp?!" At the courtyard gate, many members of the Yates family and relatives of the Yates family acted as spectators. When they saw what was going on, they all pointed to Philip, Wynn, and the others to gossip. That strange appearance made Wynn feel uneasy. Martha was very angry.


He had already said that they should not take Philip. They're fucked. How dare he talk back to Eric. He was obviously trying to fight! "Listen, that's Martha's son-in-law, Philip. He's a worthless tramp. I heard he works as a food deliveryman.


He only earns a few thousand dollars a month, and he owes." Paula stuffed herself into the crowd and started spewing gossip. His eyes twitched, and his expression was filled with contempt and humiliation. What she wanted now was to fan the flames and show everyone how Martha had a 'good daughter-in-law'!


"Oh, I've heard of Philip before. He's completely useless. Didn't someone say that he and Wynn were getting a divorce? Why is he here today?"


"How dare this useless thing come to celebrate Bob's birthday.


The wet blanket. I think we should kick him out!" "That's right, Bob doesn't even like Philip. His presence will only be a stick-in-the-mud." The group of people continued to mock them, their expressions full of contempt.


Martha could not bear the unpleasant comments, so she immediately


grab Philip and shout, "Philip, what are you doing? Why are you so embarrassing here?! Go now and don't you dare set foot into the Yates family door again!" Martha's mood was like a barrel of explosives triggered by a single spark. 


He thought that his relatives would not let go of the opportunity to make fun of him, and now that they had started with Philip, how could he sit still? Charles chose to be silent, but his expression was not the most pleasant. After all, it was Martha's family.


The Yates family was sturdy and sturdy like a mountain, so he did not dare to speak presumptuously. In addition, before retiring, she was protected by the Yates family. He lowered his head and chose not to speak.


Wynn pulled Martha's hand, raising his eyebrows. He said in a displeased tone, "Mom, this is Eric's fault. Why did he choose Philip?


Philip is your son-in-law, why aren't you by his side?" Wynn was also very unhappy. Eric started insulting Philip as soon as they got out of the car. 'Does he disrespect me? , his cousin? Where's the manners? Even my own mother... Why should he blame Philip?'s?'


 "Wynn, this is not your place to talk. Stay on the sidelines!" Anger overpowers Martha as she slaps Wynn in the face. He's had enough. Wynn has been against it recently. This time, he was also the one who insisted on bringing Philip. All of this has become a joke.


He's feeling embarrassed! When he saw Wynn being slapped, a new wave of anger appeared in Philip's heart. He placed Wynn behind him, looked at Martha furiously, and said solemnly, "Martha! Who do you think you are?! In my eyes, you are far less important compared to Wynn! Don't embarrass yourself and be a wet blanket!" Philip was furious.


He clenched his fists. Wynn, who was behind him, hurriedly grabbed Philip and whispered, "Philip, don't." Philip let go of his fist and sighed. However, the expression in his eyes was still cold. There was a burning flame in his pupils.


If anyone dared to touch Wynn or humiliate him, Philip would not mind making the biggest commotion the Yates family had ever witnessed!


Chapter 186


Martha also panicked, let alone seeing Philip's angry expression just now. 'What's with this cowardly attitude change recently? He even dared to speak back to me a few times.' Eric was very happy. 


He had yet to fully pull out his trick bag and the Johnston family had already started fighting amongst themselves. It seems Martha really dislikes Philip. He can use this. Martha glared at Philip, pulled Charles, and walked into the courtyard. Samantha's been gone a long time. He's on Paula's side.


His brows twitched as he observed this slapstick coldly. 'Wynn, oh Wynn, you have a miserable life. You marry a useless man.'


Samantha muttered a few words in her heart and was about to turn around and enter. However, when Wynn leads Philip in, Eric stops them again. "Wynn, as I said earlier, Philip isn't worthy of entering the Yates family's door!" Eric's nostrils are tilted upwards. He looks very arrogant. 


In his eyes, Philip was trash, and the Yates family did not welcome that useless tramp. Aaron also stood at the door to block them. Wynn frowned, his face quickly turning cold. He said, "Eric, Aaron, I'm your cousin.


Give me a way!" Wynn is really angry. He didn't expect Eric and Aaron to act like that. They have absolutely no respect for him. However, Eric and Aaron did not budge at all. They looked at Philip provocatively and said, "Philip, if you don't want Wynn removed from the Yates family, go alone now.


No one here welcomes you." The corner of Philip's mouth curved as he showed an indifferent smile. Jess, who had been watching on the side, walked over and pushed Eric and Aaron aside. 


He said coldly, "What are you two doing? Aren't you afraid Grandpa will scold you? The celebration will begin soon.


Are you trying to make the whole Yates family know that this is how we treat grandchildren and grandchildren in the law?" Eric and Aaron frowned, glanced at Jess, then looked at Philip angrily. They smiled threateningly and said,


I hope you don't run away halfway." After that, the two turned around and entered. Wynn said thankfully, "Jess, thank you." Jess glanced at Wynn indifferently, especially after staring at Philip for a while. He said coldly, "Philip, if you don't want Wynn to lose face, I advise you to come in and greet everyone. 


Go after that." After that, Jess turned around and flicked her hair. Philip's surprised. He wanted to say a few words to thank her, but he did not expect that she was still looked down upon by him. He and Wynn look down at each other. The latter said anxiously,


"Philip, are you really okay? I. I'm worried..." Philip shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Wynnie. It's okay, trust me." After which, the two of them entered the Yates Courtyard. At the Yates Courtyard, a row of banquet tables had already been prepared. 


Of course, it was divided into different power sequences. The highest order is in the inner hall. The guys over there will sit down with Bob Yates. The main seat is still empty because Bob Yates has not arrived yet. The inner hall can only be entered by the children of Bob Yates and those called Yates family connections. 


Then, there was the middle section below the inner hall. There are four tables set up, all for Bob Yates' relatives celebrating his birthday. The lowest class was naturally the outer hall, where six tables were set up. They were the ones who were present just for dinner. "Well, look at that.


This is Ted Yates, Peter Yates' eldest son!" Everyone saw a handsome young man step into the courtyard and walk into the inner hall. At that moment, even the elders and the large people who were already sitting in the inner hall focused their attention on the young man!


"Ted Yates of the Yates family, the most outstanding junior in the Yates family!" Throughout the page, many people were watching Ted. Philip's brows were also slightly wrinkled. The Yates family can be considered a powerful family in Riverdale, especially Bob Yates who has many connections.


Ted Yates, as the eldest son of Peter Yates and the eldest son of the Yates family, certainly received a lot of attention and love. Ted Yates didn't disappoint everyone either. He started his own company at a young age and succeeded


go public. Now, he's worth two to three billion dollars! You could say Bob Yates really likes Ted, even he plans to train Ted to be the third generation successor.


 After Eric and Aaron saw Ted step into the inner hall, their faces dark and cold. They drank their cup of tea furiously. They are at odds with Ted, and members of the Yates family find out.


 Eric was uncomfortable. He looked at Philip who was sitting by the door in the outer courtyard. He has a plan in his heart and walks with Aaron.


Chapter 187


Philip sat down next to Wynn and naturally saw Eric and Aaron walking over.


They had a sly smile on their faces. "Philip, why are you sitting in the outer courtyard by the door? This is where I used to feed my dog." Eric looked at Philip and grinned coldly. There was a glint of sarcasm in his eyes. 


Wynn's face turned red. He wanted to stand up but a big hand stopped him. Philip smiled calmly. "The outer night and the hall are the same. It depends on who is sitting in which location to eat.


Plus, the hall belonged to Yates. I don't care." Philip has been in custody for so long. He did not mind being arrogant in the slightest. Most importantly, Eric hated it too much. He just has to create something out of nothing. "Hehe, you really are something else.


You even know how to boast. You're just a piece of trash. We do charity by letting you eat on the table at home with the other Yates. Do you understand, you worthless bastard ?!" Eric scoffed.


Jessi frowned. Initially, Jess could sit in the hall but in order to guard Wynn, she decided to sit in the outer courtyard. "Enough, Eric.


Can't you just shut up? Do you have to argue with Philip?" Jess frowned and said. Even though he hates Philip, he's still Wynn's cousin.


He will help her as best he can. Eric's face fell as he looked at Jess.


He did not dare to do anything to her. After all, she was the second daughter of her oldest uncle. He is also an accomplished student. Plus, many great and kind people approached him to propose to him. Jess has a bright future ahead of her. "Hehe, Philip, are you planning to hide behind my sister


like a helpless coward all day?" Eric scoffs. "Eric, do you really hate me so much?" Philip could only snort. "If it wasn't for Wynn, I wouldn't have even come. Let me give you some advice, don't provoke me and don't provoke Wynn. 


Otherwise, I will make you kneel on the ground and beg for mercy on me." "What's? Whatdidyou say? I kneel down and beg for mercy on you? Were you dropped on your head when you were born? How dare you say something like that!" Eric laughed out loud.


There was hatred in his eyes. Philip was shameless. He even had the guts to say something like this. He wondered who gave him the courage to do so.


"Enough. You have to stop this. You should also keep your mouth shut!" Jess angry. He glared at Eric and looked at Philip angrily. This guy knew that Eric was trying to humiliate him and he was still talking back to him.


 'You're just the Yates family's boneless son-in-law. Can't you just sit here and eat right? Can't you leave after you're done? 'You just have to fool yourself, right?' With that, Jess began to look at Philip angrily. 


He even started to regret sitting here. "Philip is very arrogant. How dare he say something shameless." "really? I don't expect him to be not only trash, but also trash who likes to brag." "Hehe, I don't want to sit at the same table with him anymore.


Let's go to another table." The other villagers from Yates Village who had come here to attend the party started looking at Philip as if he was a clown. They started to get up one by one to go to another table. In an instant, the only people at this table were Philip, Wynn, and Jess. Eric happy. He scoffed loudly, though,


"Philip, don't tell me I molested you. Trash like you has no right to sit and eat here. If you know where you are, you need to get out of here.


Did you hear me?" 'How dare he spew nonsense about making me kneel and beg? 'Does he think he's Ted? 'Ted has his own company and his own resources. Everyone will believe whatever he says.


for-nothing like Philip acting so arrogantly? 'You underestimate Yates! If the old master knew about this, he would definitely kick you out in front of everyone!' As he thought about this, Eric looked at Aaron


immediately understood. He walked away silently and ran into the living room inside the hall. At this time, Bob was chatting with his children and some of his close friends. When he entered, Aaron made an angry face and shouted, "Grandfather, you should see this!


Philip is so rude! He underestimated Yates and even wanted to hit Eric!" After he said that, everyone in the living room started to make a fuss. Paula was very happy. He was eager to run out and see what happened.


 'It would be amazing if they started fighting. 'Then, that boneless coward will be kicked out and Martha will be completely humiliated!' Samson and Peter were indifferent.


They had no right to speak because their father was here. On the other hand, Martha had the intention to kill Philip now. Philip couldn't even stay still for a minute! If they really start fighting, Martha will be kicked out of the Yates family forever!


 Old Master Yates took out his staff made of black wood and encrusted with gold thread to slam the tiles on the floor angrily. His face fell as he said, "How dare he!" In the blink of an eye, the temperature in the living room dropped drastically.


 Everyone knew that the old master was crazy. Martha was nervous. He began to sweat, and even his legs were now trembling. After he said that, Old Master Yates came out of the living room with Aaron supporting him.


 Then, they walked out into the outer courtyard of the party venue. The crowd followed behind Old Master Yates and exited one by one. In the outer courtyard, Eric argued with Philip loudly. They even got into fights. Philip was furious.


 Eric had splashed alcohol on Wynn and called him ab*tch! He dug his own grave! Philip grabbed Eric's collar. There's a layer of ice on Philip's face. He raised his fist and was about to punch Eric in the bruised face when suddenly... "Stop!" A roar sounded in the hall.


Chapter 188


Everyone looked towards the voice. Old Master Yates looked at Philip. His face was ice cold. Anger rose from his body as he shouted,


"Get out of Yates Manor if you dare to hit him!" At this moment, the outer courtyard was filled with people. They're not trying to help. They didn't even tell them to stop. They were just standing on one side watching what was going on . 


When they saw Old Master Yates, everyone stood to one side in fear. They all lowered their heads without a sound. He was the head of the Yates family. Who would dare provoke him? If they offended Old Master Yates, they would have to get out of Riverdale. Philip's done!


Under everyone's respectful gazes, Old Master Yates approached the two men while his staff stomped the floor loudly. He exuded anger.


He raised his staff and swung it into Philip's hand which was raised in the air.


Hit it! Philip's pain. His entire right arm was numb. "You uncontrolled trash! How dare you hit Eric! Is this your great daughter-in-law, Martha?" Old Master Yates glared at Martha who was standing behind him and shouted. 


Martha trembled in fear. He did not look at the old master directly. No one could handle the old master when he was angry. He desperately wanted to cut Philip into pieces right now. This is so embarrassing! Wynn stood up hurriedly and pulled Philip to one side.


When she saw that she was in pain, the tears in her eyes started to flow down her cheeks uncontrollably. After Old Master Yates scolded Martha, she turned around and glared at Philip. He roared, "Philip, so you really underestimated Yates, huh? How dare you start a fight at my party!


Do you have any respect for me?" Bob was angry. How dare this piece of trash start a fight during his birthday celebration! Who does he think he is? What right does it have to start a fight? Philip's mouth was open in pain. 


He swung his arm and said coldly, "Old Master Yates, I'm here to celebrate your birthday with you. However, Eric continued to provoke me non-stop. He even insulted Wynn. You didn't even ask what was going on and immediately threw all the blame at me.


Aren't you a little biased? Is Wynn not your grandson?" Bob stunned. He looked at Wynn who was standing next to Philip. He was covered in alcohol and his eyes were red. Then, he saw Eric behind him. He had a sly grin on his face.


After he saw the old master staring at him, he lowered his head and pretended to be a good boy. However, could he scold Eric in front of so many people? Of course not! Martha was her daughter who married into another family. 


A daughter who is married to her husband is equivalent to water being splashed. Thus, it can no longer be taken. Wynn is not Yates. He is his grandson by another last name. Bob grunts. "Throwing!" It ended without a conclusion. Philip even had a beating. 


His entire right arm was still numb even after sitting down. Eric looked at her provokingly on one side. He gave her a finger. Wynn sat down next to Philip and massaged his arms for him. Tears flowed down his cheeks like broken strands of pearls. He felt very hurt. "It's okay, Wynnie. Don't cry" Philip said, feeling hurt. Wynn is still crying.


He glared at Philip angrily and said, "Can't you bear this?" Philip smiled tenaciously and said, "I can bear it if Eric insults me, but I can't let him bully you. The Yates family is just a small family. They mean nothing to me.


If they continue to overdo it, I don't mind wiping them out of this world." Wynn glared at him and clamped the meat between his waist. "Stop bragging. Your mom and dad just run the restaurant. My grandfather is strong.


Moreover, Yates is not a small family." Philip touched his nose and said nothing. "Cough, cough!" Jess walked over and coughed a few times. He walked with some Yunnan Baiyao and looked at Philip coldly.


" Can't you sit here right? Do you have to make everyone angry? You deserve to be hit!" Jess hears the first part of what Philip and Wynn have to say.


What does he mean by a small family? He even wants to make Yates disappear? This guy is so good at bragging! Is this f*ckboy lying to Wynn that way to get it too? He'll have to find a chance to talk to Wynn.


Philip took the medicine and grinned. "Thank you, Jess." Jess ignored. He took out a book from somewhere and sat down Then, he started reading it. The book was about Buffer's past interviews. He is the most successful investor in the world! He's worth hundreds of billions!


He is someone everyone admires! According to Philip, though,


Buffer is just his financial manager. Philip pondered for a moment and got an idea. He decides to look for an opportunity to invite Buffer to meet Jess. 


That would be his way of thanking Jess for helping them twice. "Um, Jess, do you want to meet Buffer?" Philip asked suddenly with a grin on his face.


Chapter 189


A buffer? Jess looked at Philip in confusion. There was no sign of a fool on his face. What does he mean? Does he know who Buffer is? He is the God of investment! He has assets of hundreds of billions and is among the top on Forbes' list of billionaires in the world! People like him are seen by so many people. Can he just meet her?


"Philip, you're getting used to talking big, aren't you?" Therefore, Jess thought Philip was joking. He rolled his eyes at her and continued to ignore her.


If Philip knew what Jess was thinking right now, he would laugh out loud. Is Buffy so great? He only had such a large asset because Philip asked him to keep it for him. He shook his head helplessly and laughed bitterly. 


Then, Philip walked out of the courtyard and came to a more secluded place. He pulled out his phone and found Buffer's number after a while. After that, he called her. In an instant, a respectful yet excited voice sounded from the other end of the phone. 


His voice was hoarse with age, and he said in broken English, "Honored Young Master Philip, is that you? I've waited so long for your call. I don't think the esteemed Young Master Philip will remember me. ." Then, sounds stuffing. Philip felt awkward and said hurriedly, "Buffy, where are you making money now?"


"Please don't make fun of me, Young Master Philip. I've invested your assets in a variety of industries around the world. For now, it's worth 130


billion as a whole. Did you come here to see it?" At the moment, Buffer is in a European-style luxury home. While talking to Philip, his usual temperament changed. Even the ten or so servants around him looked surprised. There are not many people in the world who are Mr. Buffers


revered. Her blonde female secretary had a pair of blue eyes and a hot body. Even he was shocked when he saw that. "It's okay, I just called to tell you something. Come to my place when you are free.


I have a friend who wants to meet you," Philip said flatly. "Young Master Philip, I will definitely fulfill your wishes. I'll fly tomorrow. Tell your friend to wait for me," Buffer said excitedly. Philip immediately said, "Not too soon.


Wait a few moments before you travel here. All right, there's something I need to take care of. I'll hang up now." Buffer is still good. "Young Master Philip, is there anything else I can help you with?" Buffer was eager to help Philip. This is the person who gave him the asset.


Without Philip, there would be no Buffer. "no need. I was at my wife's grandfather's birthday party" Philip said, hanging up. After a while, Buffer paced around in his large and majestic meeting room.


"Alice, book me a plane ticket to Orienta. I'll fly there tomorrow. Plus, help me figure out who Mr.'s wife's grandfather is. Clarke's. If he owns the property, we'll invest there" Buffer said excitedly. 


"We're going to invest a billion!" The secretary replied, "Alright, boss. I'll do it soon." After he said that, he turned around and left. 


Back to Philip. He didn't know Buffer had misunderstood his phone call. Half an hour later, Yates' property was funded with one billion from a large financial group.


As for now, Yates did not know. Philip returned to the party and sat down next to Wynn. "Where are you going?" ask Wynn. "Toilet" replied Philip. At the party, Bob Yates was talking to his children and friends.


They're having fun. Everyone went up to congratulate Old Master Yates. "I wish you a happy birthday and more. May your happiness be as big as the East Sea!"


 Eric put his hand together and congratulated the old master. Then, she gave her gift and said while feeling pleased with herself, "Grandfather, I saw this in the jade market. It's top grade jade and I made it a Black Tortoise for you."


Bob smiled broadly. He patted Eric on the shoulder and said, "Okay, my beautiful grandson. Here, this is from me for you." After he said that,


Bob pulled out a red packet for Eric. There's a card in the red packet that contains a million dollars. Eric accepted it with pleasure. He only spent 100,000 dollars on the Black Tortoise jade. He made a profit this time. 


Philip saw this and mocked in his heart. He muttered, "Black Tortoise? Isn't that just a thousand-year-old turtle?" Wynn kicked Philip under the table.


He rolled his eyes at her. "Stop talking nonsense." Philip shrugged and put on an indifferent expression on his face. He's not interested in all of Yates right now. He could only smell the foul smell coming from all of them. jess'


his hearing was good, so of course, he heard what was said. He glared at Philip, his impression of him getting worse. 


This person not only liked to boast, but he was also rude no matter what the occasion was. Aaron is next. He gave the old master calligraphy. "Grandfather, this is the original inscription of the master of Chinese national culture, Kendrick Smalls.


Look at these three words. 'Luck and Wealth'." Old Master Yates was overjoyed. He continued to praise Aaron. In just a few minutes, Aaron was able to present himself in front of the crowd.


He feels proud of himself. On the other hand, Eric's face was slightly grim. Aaron also received a red packet. He stood on one side happily. The eldest son, Peter, nodded slightly.


His useless son ended up winning against his youngest son for once. Samson clenched his fists silently.


He only has one son. His son became stupid and incompetent because he spoiled him too much. It seemed like he needed to teach her properly when they returned. Otherwise, Eric risks losing all of his assets.


Chapter 190


Jess wakes up in her turn. He looked at Wynn and Philip before sighing. "Grandfather, here's an acceptance letter from Harvard. I'll take Ph.D." 


Jess issued a letter of acceptance. This is the top student reward method. He is very humble! Harvard! The best educational institution! Bob was so happy that his eyes turned into two lines. He took over the letter and began to praise it repeatedly, "Good!


the eldest daughter never disappoints me. There will be super women among the Yates!" Ahaha! Everyone started praising Jess. Bob gave her the red packet he received as well. Then, under everyone's gaze, Ted got up after sitting down the entire time. He walked empty-handed in front of the old master and said calmly,


"Grandfather, I was in a hurry when I came here, so I didn't bring anything."


Everyone was shocked after they heard that. Not bring anything? This is not something Ted would do. Peter sat there quietly, even sipping his tea. He looks indifferent. It was as if he had already predicted this.


When Eric and Aaron heard this, they jumped out impatiently. They accused, "Ted, this is a very important party and you didn't even prepare a gift?! Do you disrespect Grandpa?" Provocations. Ted raised his eyebrows.


His calm and dark eyes glittered as he looked at the two idiots. Bob smiled and said, "It's okay. Teddy's busy with work. It's okay he forgot."


This is Bob's love for Ted. The crowd did not dare to say anything more.


However, in the next second, Ted said calmly, "Grandfather, I have taken on an oasis development project south of Riverdale." Everyone in the hall immediately turned their eyes to Ted after he said that. 


This kid is amazing! This gift is awesome! It immediately stabilized the crowd. The Oasis development project south of Riverdale is a 300 million project! If Yates got it, the future profit would be at least 500 million!


 Which means Ted alone could make 500 million for Yates! He's scary! Peter finally showed a small smile on his face. He was calm and confident the whole time. Bob stood up excitedly. He looked at Ted with his eyes wide open and asked, "Certainly?"


Ted nodded and replied, "Yes." "Great! Just incredible! That's incredible!"


He repeated the word 'incredible' three times. This perfectly shows Bob's excitement. "You're the grandson I'm most optimistic about!


There is hope for the grandchildren of Yates! There is so much hope!" Bob nodded and continued to praise. He turned to look at Peter and said,


"Peter, you can leave the family business to Teddy if you want. I'm gonna


feel comfortable with him around." Everyone gasped in shock. He gave up his power. Old Master Yates has decided to train Ted as the heir! Peter replies, "Of course, Dad." Ted sat back next to him to Peter.


Then, the latter told him, "Good. You can come to me with any question. I'll help you with the procedure." Ted nodded. The hall is becoming more alive now. 


The people attending the party raised their glasses to congratulate Old Master Yates. They congratulated him for taking the Oasis development project south of Riverdale. Now, Yates


the position in Riverdale will rise by one rank! The youngest son, Samson, was the only one who felt sad. He looked at Eric with anger. What an incompetent fool!


 Eric knew his father was unhappy with him. He turned his gaze and looked at Wynn and Philip in the outer courtyard. They talked and laughed together. At that moment, he got up and scoffed cynically.


"Wynn, why don't you come and congratulate Grandpa? What gifts do you bring? Why don't you show it to us?" After he said that, everyone turned their eyes to the table in the outer courtyard.


 They looked there with strange looks in their eyes. Their looks are complicated. There was ridicule, humiliation, humiliation, and anger in their gazes. Of course, the wrath came from Martha. Goddamn bum! He knew he would be humiliated.


Wynn nervous. He looked at Philip and the latter took out an embroidered box from his pocket. He gave it to Wynn and said, "It's okay.


Take this." Take this." "really?" Wynn took over the box. He was curious but at the same time, very nervous. If they were to fool themselves now, they would be completely humiliated. 'It's okay.


I'll take Philip home after we eat.' Then, Wynn took Philip's box under everyone's evil gaze and got up He walked slowly into the hall.
