The First Heir

Chapter 2016

Bang!

Like a tonne of bricks, Philip stomped heavily on Gerry’s back.

Crack!

Gerry’s backbone seemed to have shattered.

“Argh, it hurts!”

Gerry was lying on the ground, and his limbs flailed wildly. His face was pale, while his eyes were round and bloodshot. He was being stepped on the spine and the piercing pain made him almost faint on the spot.

“Ah, get off! I’m about to be trampled to death!”

Gerry roared with a flushed face. He felt as if he was about to lose his breath. The force on his back brought his chest into close contact with the floor tiles and that pressure made him breathless.

Philip looked down at Gerry on the ground and said grimly, “Now, I want you to apologize to my wife.”

“Don’t think about it! I’m from the law enforcement hall and I’m working on their orders! Your wife is nothing but a lowly woman with no background in the outside world. In the Clarke family, she’s supposed to be lynched! Moreover, she gave birth to the child of a Clarke. She’s an impure woman with no background, and the child born to her is a bastard who deserves to be drowned!” Gerry gritted his teeth and was about to bite his tongue.
