The First Heir

Theo quickly said, “I’ll be there right away, Mr. Clarke.”

Once he hung up, Theo took a sharp intake of breath. He was somewhat nervous and even a bit panicked.

Did Nino Gil get on Mr. Clarke’s bad side?

Well, he had it coming!

Over the years, Theo had long since gotten fed up with Nino. The latter was too meddlesome for his own good.

Besides, Nino had grown unhappy with his lot too. He was already pulling all sorts of strings in secret to mess with Theo’s territory.

Theo just let it slide so far because both of them came from equally powerful backgrounds. Any wars between them should be fought in secret, or so Theo thought.

Today, though, Nino had clearly poked the hornets’ nest.

In that case, Theo figured, why not give him an extra push for good measure? That way, he could put an end to Nino for good.

With that in mind, Theo immediately made a phone call.

In the blink of an eye, at least a dozen people leaped to action as a result of that call!
