The First Heir

Chapter 278

Everyone fetched for their phones immediately even though most of them were aware that the phone ringing was not their own.

Staring at Deaton, Philip motioned with a jerk of his chin. “It’s yours.”

Stunned, Deaton reached for his pockets to realize it was indeed his phone. Most importantly, it was from his company’s secretary.

Had he not already established that they were not to disturb him today?

Deaton frowned. Having no idea what the meaning behind the call was, he picked it up with a smile. “Right in time. A call from my company’s secretary. I’ll get to ask if my assets have been…”

Before he could finish speaking, his ear was met with the anxious voice of his sexy female secretary.

“Mr. Wade, something has happened! Our company’s been bought and transferred to someone else’s name.”

Stunned, cold sweat began to form on Deaton’s forehead. “What?”

He was shocked. The unease in his chest caused his entire body to shiver in fear as he stared at Philip.

“Mr. Wade, all your holdings have been transferred to someone else! As of right now, you’ve gone bankrupt!” the female secretary worriedly exclaimed.

Deaton paled as he felt his brain crash. His legs gave out as he landed butt-first on the floor.

That was an appalling sight.

Ruby was especially agitated. Quickly reaching to pull Deaton up, she exclaimed in a spoiled tone, “Mr. Wade! What’s wrong? What happened?”

With his face seemingly drained of blood, Deaton sat dejectedly on the floor.
