The First Heir

Under the spotlight, Philip strode over to Wynn.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps approached him. A bodyguard in a black suit stopped Philip hurriedly. He bowed and said deferentially. “Young Master, Madam Wallis is asking you to go back to Cirrus Manor. Master Tim is here.”

Master Tim?

Philip’s heart stopped. He turned around to look at Wynn under the spotlight and handed the rose to the server. He said, “I’ll be back in a bit. Tell her to wait for me.”

After he said that, Philip turned around and ran out of Sky Garden Restaurant.

A black Bentley sped on the main highway of Riverdale. It crossed Scarlet Bridge and headed into the mountain that was lush with greenery. Then, it arrived at Cirrus Manor.

Philip could not calm himself after a long time. He frowned. Master Tim was back.

Why was he here?

Did something happen at home?

The car stopped at the entrance of the manor. There were two rows of bodyguards in black suits along the entrance.

The atmosphere was solemn, and Philip could sense that there was something fishy amidst the silence.

Philip got out of the car and followed the personal assistant to the hall of the manor. She was wearing a white shirt and a red skirt.

After pushing open the heavy door, Philip saw a middle-aged man on the sofa. He had one leg on top of the other, and there was a golden pipe dangling from his lips. He had a mustache and slicked-back hair. There were also white sideburns on both sides of his face. He was wearing an expensive grey checkered suit and was chatting happily with Giada.
