The First Heir

Swoosh!

The door opened to reveal Philip standing there.

Martha’s expression froze. Then, she said curiously, “Aren’t you in jail? How did you get out?”

Philip smiled and said, “Mom, I didn’t break the law, so naturally they let me out.”

At the same time, Wynn heard Philip’s voice and ran out. She hugged Philip and wailed.

Philip consoled her. “It’s alright now. I’m fine. See, I’m here now.”

Everyone sat together in the living room.

Martha and Charles sat on the sofa. Their eyes were piercing and they looked angry. They stared at Philip like they were going to interrogate him.

There was an old man next to Philip. It was George.

Martha started at George, looking annoyed, “Philip, who is this old man? How can you bring strangers into my house?”

Martha did not like this old man’s outfit. He was old and wearing a suit. He was also holding a black hat that she had never seen before. There was a grin on his face.
