The First Heir

Chapter 42

How was he acquainted with a prominent figure like Theo Zander?

“Wait,” Philip suddenly called out.

In an instant, the group at the door froze in panic, unsure whether to stay or leave.

“Mr. Clarke, do you have any other instructions?” Harold still had a little more guts and could afford to stay composed.

“I hope you all will not speak of this incident today with anyone else. I do not wish for my daily life to be disrupted, do you understand?” said Philip.

“We understand, we understand.” Harold nodded continuously.

Philip then nodded, and the group immediately dispersed, almost running away.

After they finally got out, Jeremy took a deep breath. When they reached the entrance, they saw Lynn. Jeremy hesitated for the longest time but chose to stay quiet in the end.

“How did it go?” Lynn asked anxiously. To be frank, she was unwilling to watch her wretched cousin brother-in-law punished, so she chose to stay behind at the entrance.

Jeremy shook his head and answered, “It was okay.”

Okay? Lynn was a little confused. She noticed that her other friend had a heavy look on their faces.

“Alright, alright, let’s go for karaoke,” Jeremy suggested. Mainly because the air around them was too dense, and he was afraid that Lynn might notice something was up.

When the rest heard this, they quickly snapped back to their senses and forced a smile. “Sure, Brother Jeremy’s treat!” The group of youngsters finally left.
