The First Heir

Beep, beep, beep…

“Old Master Seed? What advice do you have for me this time? Or is it regarding the matter with the last shipment?” Victor’s voice sounded from across from the phone.

Saul frowned.

A few days ago, he had a shipment of smuggled goods seized by the joint forces of Victor and the chamber of commerce on the grounds that the goods were unregistered!

He put the phone on speaker so that Victor and Philip could hear each other.

“Victor, I advise you to release my shipment. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to afford the consequences this time!” Saul said.

On the other end of the phone, Victor smiled and said, “Are you threatening me? It doesn’t matter. How many gifts have you sent me over the years to try and buy me off? And now you actually dare to threaten me?

“Haha, Saul Seed, do you think I’m a three years old child? Don‘t think I don’t know what you were carrying on board that ship. Are you forcing me to check the goods on board?

“Hmph! I’m not making a move against you just because I’m afraid too many people will get involved and it’ll cause innocent casualties!”

The series of questions and comments made Saul very upset!

“Victor, don’tbe hasty. I know you have a strong position in Uppercreek and have gained a lot of power over the years. But today, I advise you to try and be careful in what you say. Otherwise, your son may
