The First Heir (First Heir)

chapter 17

Lloyd Zalman, who let you in here?" Anna denounced coldly. She hated this annoying fat guy because she had long wanted him.

Whenever he had time, Lloyd would come to his office and shamelessly try to ask him out for dinner. He also cheated, always trying to bring his friends and family members to the Civil Gallery through his connections. For example, Allison Cooper was one of the people she brought along.

"Anna Carter, what's wrong with your attitude? As the director of Civil Gallery operations, may I come here to rest?" Lloyd Zalman sits comfortably on the couch. Like a huge pile of meat, he had a layer of fat on his stomach so his shirt threatened to explode.

"This is not a place you can go to. Immediately leave," Anna pointed to the door and said coldly. The new owner is here, but this idiot is so presumptuous.

Lloyd chuckled then glanced at Philip and teased shamelessly, "You're really great, Anna. I never thought you'd be lonely like this."

Ana frowned. "Lloyd Zalman, what did you just say?!" This bitch is shameless!

"I don't want to waste time chatting. Allison is under me. You can't fire him" Lloyd said blatantly.

Allison who was standing nearby swept a mocking look towards Anna and Philip, feeling disgusted at them. Anna, you really are a bastard, even taking this wild man into the waiting room. What a bitch!

"Haha," Anna chuckled. "Lloyd Zalman, don't forget that I'm the manager here. I have that right!"

"Carter! Don't be so arrogant. Brother Lloyd isn't afraid of you!" Allison crossed her arms with a condescending expression on her face. "You've broken the rules by bringing these migrant workers here of your own accord. If this comes out, I don't think you can keep your manager position." Allison then sat down beside Lloyd and leaned into each other's arms, ignoring the other occupants in the room.

"Anna Carter, think carefully. There's no point in offending me for a migrant worker." Lloyd smiled menacingly as his hot gaze locked onto Anna, wanting to devour this woman alive. She had long wanted this woman, but she was the ice queen, constantly ignoring her. What a bitch! He usually acted very cold and honorable, but in truth he was a bastard. If Allison had never come to him today, she would never have known that Anna was taking a migrant worker to the waiting room. Thinking of this, Lloyd hated Philip even more!

"Then what do you want?" asked Anna with a flat face. He had observed Philip's expression and realized that the man was indifferent. He knew that Philip did not want to get involved in this.

Lloyd licked her lips, looking at Anna with greedy eyes. "Simple, have dinner with me tonight."

"What did you say?!" Allison instantly exploded, glaring at Lloyd grimly.

Lloyd quickly explained, "I'm just kidding, baby. What advice?"

Allison arrogantly pointed at Philip and said with a cold snort, "I want him to kneel down and apologize to me!" Allison knew that it was impossible to make Anna apologize to her, so she would humiliate the person Anna brought in. He knew that Philip was Anna's lover.

Philip's dumbfounded. He could not avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Anna was shocked too. He glared at Allison furiously. "Allison Cooper, you have no right to speak here, shut up!"

"Manager Carter, I've helped you not apologize. He's just a bum, why do you have to protect him? Or is he really your son's toy? Although his appearance was only average," Allison teased.

"Shut up! Do you know who he is?" Anna rampages.

"Can he be with our new boss?" Allison grunting. What does Anna mean by that? What special identity could this person have?

Suddenly, Philip smiled faintly and asked, "Are you sure you want me to kneel down and apologize?"

"That's right! Get on your knees, and apologize right now!" Allison looked proud. His entire body emitted an aura of arrogance.

"Not just kneeling, you have to crawl and prostrate" Lloyd added in a derogatory tone. He was too lazy to deal with others, so he often used his authority to suppress others. And it works every time.

"Your name is Lloyd Zalman, director of operations here?" Unlike Lloyd, Philip did not seem angry. He asked with a smile.

"really. I'm the director of operations here. Are you feeling scared now? Apologize to my girlfriend right now!" Lloyd crossed his legs and looked arrogant.

However, Philip suddenly turned to Anna with a cold expression. "Fire both and check if he is involved in corruption or abusing his power. I hope this is dealt with soon."

Anna respectfully nodded. "Understand me, Mr. Clarke."

Allison also sneered. "Damn! Fucking idiots! Did his head hit the door?"

Lloyd and Allison have never seen such a fool. Does this guy think he's the owner of this place? How funny!

However, in an instant, Anna smiled coldly and called the security department. "Send some people and tell the financial investigation division to hand over all evidence of Lloyd Zalman's corruption and abuse of power to the police."

Regarding Lloyd Zalman, Anna had already taken action a long time ago. He has gathered a lot of evidence. It was just that they never bothered each other at work, so Anna let it go. However, he wouldn't do it today because he had offended the new boss. And that's a death sentence! A bad death at that time!

As soon as he spoke, Lloyd's laughter stopped. His face darkened and asked, "Anna Carter, what do you mean by this? Are you really trying to provoke me?"

Ana remained silent.

Several security personnel rushed into the room in less than two minutes and arrested Lloyd Zalman and Allison Cooper.

"Don't you know who I am? Unhand me!" Lloyd roared while struggling.

However, the security guards ignored him. They were all under Anna and would only listen to her.

At the moment, Allison still did not know her own mistake. He shouted loudly, "Brother Lloyd, they are all crazy! Shoot them all!"

At that moment, Philip was sitting quietly on the sofa while Anna brought along a scrap of documents she had just printed. "Boss, this is their termination notice."

Philip nodded and calmly replied, "Put it on the door."

Lloyd and Allison were stunned. The boss? Did Anna just call him 'boss'? The two men finally started to sweat coldly.

Thump! Without the slightest hesitation, Lloyd knelt down and crawled towards Philip. He hugged his leg and cried, "Boss, Boss! Sorry, I was wrong! I'm too blind to recognize you early. I'm wrong!" Lloyd started slapping him in the face.

Allison's knee was limp. His entire body shivered, and he fell to the ground, paralyzed in fear as he sat down. She ... boss? Impossible!

Back then, people from the finance division led the police into the room and handcuffed Lloyd without a word.

"Boss! I-i'm sorry! I won't do it again!" Lloyd's last scream of struggle echoed in the room as he was dragged away.

Now, only Allison was left, still paralyzed on the floor.

Philip looked at him coldly and then got up to leave. Anna followed behind him, wanting to see him out.

Thump! Allison threw herself at Philip, hugging his legs as she pleaded in tears. "Boss, I know my mistake now. Please forgive me this time."

Philip did not even glance at her, only saying coldly, "His position will be replaced by that girl at the entrance, Jasmine Cooper."

"Understand, Mr. Clarke," Anna replied, and she immediately got security to drag Allison away.

After they left the waiting room, Anna accompanied Philip, chatting happily as they walked into the lobby.

Then, an unexpected meeting happened.

"Philip, why are you here?"

This voice sounds familiar. Philip turned to look at the side door to see Aiden looking at him in confusion. The man's eyes also sparkled with hatred.
