The First Heir

This news came like a bolt from the blue! Philip was stunned for a few seconds before he finally digested Lynn’s words. His tone instantly shot up a few decibels. “Mila’s missing?! Where are you?”

This was urgent! Philip felt like someone had kicked him hard on the chest. His back was now drenched with sweat.

“Brother-in-law, I’m at Millennium Amusement Park, I only…” Lynn sounded distinctly flustered over the phone. Her background was noisy with sounds of people frolicking about.

“Wait there. I’m coming!” Philip roared. Mila was missing! He no longer had time for the people in the gallery as he hurried outside.

Behind him, Russell called out to him a few times, but Philip did not respond. Charles added words of contempt, saying Philip had no manners and that he was rushing to his death.

Philip did not dare to tell Charles that Mila was missing, thinking that the old man might not even care for Mila’s safety at all. To them, Mila’s birth was a humiliation to the Johnston family because Philip and Wynn had given birth to her before they had even gotten married. This incident had brought shame to the Johnston family, embarrassed Charles, and caused Wynn significant damage.

Upon exiting the gallery, Philip ran into Theo, who had been waiting outside. Philip anxiously said, “To Millennium Amusement Park, quick!”

Theo did not bother asking questions. Philip looked so anxious as if the sky was about to fall. After they got in, Theo hastily started up the car and drove them to Millennium Amusement Park.
