The First Heir – Chapter 1781
Hearing this, Homer’s expression changed abruptly. He stared gloomily at Philip in front of him and
shouted, “My friend, do you really think I have no men in Flower City and that’s why you’re being so
arrogant?” Milo also frowned and said with a pretentious smile, “Mr. Clarke, since you’re willing to come
here and meet
us, it means that there’s still room for discussion on this matter. Why don‘t we sit down and have a good
talk?” After saying that, Milo gestured for the angry Homer to sit down. Philip just looked at the two
indifferently without a word. Milo added, “Mr. Clarke, I think there’s a misunderstanding between us.
Hector just injured a nanny. Our
Dunley family is willing to pay for this mistake. just name a price and we’re willing to accept it.”
“A price?” Philip glanced at him and said with a sneer, “You may have misunderstood my meaning. I
came to see you
just to tell you that if you hand Hector to me, I can still stop now. Homer Dunley will still be the chairman
of
Homer Pharmaceutical and all the properties and assets under his name will be released. If he refuses to
come
to his senses, I guarantee that everything under his name will be reduced to ashes in the next half an
hour!”
“Are you trying to scare me?” Homer was furious. He slapped his palm on the table fiercely, pointed at
Philip, and roared, “I’ve made
inquiries. You’re just relying on the power of Victor Bell in Uppercreek Are you trying to scare me with
that?
I’m telling you, even if Victor comes to Flower City, he has to watch his step! Believe it or not, with just
one
phone call from me, you’ll be killed on the streets the moment you walk out of this hotel!” Homer was
really angry. The young man in front of him was so obstinate that he refused to listen to their
suggestions.
“Oh? I must say I don’t believe you.” Philip grinned with a trace of disdain and contempt. “You!” Homer
inhaled sharply. It was a slightly exaggerated claim to say that Philip would get killed on the streets, but
there were a hundred
ways if he wanted Philip to disappear from Flower City!
After all, within the boundary of Flower City in Charbury, Milo Dunley was a well known figure. Even the
six
underground lords had to Show some respect to the Dunley family of Flower City. The reason why he
said that was just to give Philip a warning and let him know the current situation he was in. However, who
would have thought that Philip was actually so arrogant? In that case, he must take things more
seriously. Homer flicked a glance at Milo next to him. The latter signaled to him not to get too excited
before he smiled
at Philip and said, “Mr. Clarke, it’s impossible for us to hand Hector over. After all, he’s my fourth
brother’s
son and my nephew. You can change the condition…”
“My condition will not change. You only have half an hour to think about it. If you don’t hand over Hector
in
half an hour, Homer Dunley will lose everything in Flower City!” Philip said coldly, not at all joking.
Smack!
Milo was also angry now. He stood up abruptly, slapped the table, and pointed at Philip. He shouted,
“Boy, you really don’t know what’s good for you! You should remember that this is Flower City, not
Uppercreek! If
I want you to die, it’s just a matter of words! Hector is still young, so it’s understandable that he couldn’t
control his strength. Now that things have already happened, why are you so relentless? Let’s name a
price. How about 50 million dollars?”
“50… million?” Homer was stunned. He looked at Milo with a frown and wanted to say something.
However, Milo’s brows were furrowed and Homer understood his intention. He made no comment. He
said, “Boy, 50 million dollars is our limit. Take the money and leave quickly. Otherwise, I think you’ll have
to stay
in Flower City forever!”
“Hehe.”
The First Heir – Chapter 1782
Philip grinned. “Do you think 50 million dollars is a lot? Anne is still in a coma. If she doesn’t wake up, I
think there’s no need for you to live in this world either.” Homer laughed in exasperation. He had never
seen such an arrogant young man. The price of 50 million
dollars was already their limit but the other party did not appreciate it at all. She was just a nanny, right?
Since she could not wake up anymore, why not let everything end here?
Thinking of this, Homer could not help but sneer. “Very well, since you refuse to accept, we can’t do
anything
either. You won’t get a single cent of this 50 million dollars. Do you still want to deal with us? Fine, let’s
see
your methods. I refuse to believe that you can make my Dunley family of Flower City go bankrupt!” The
corners of Philip’s mouth curved up, revealing a cruel sneer. He said, “In that case, you shall wait and
see.” After that, he turned to Milo and said flatly, “I’m only after the responsible party. I don’t want to have
too
many conflicts with the Dunley family. You have nothing to do with this matter, so I hope you won’t
interfere. If you must intervene, then I’m sorry, but you’ll also be a victim of the destruction that’s about to
ensue.” Milo was stunned and looked incredulously at Philip. How dare he threaten him too?
This was Flower City!
It was the territory of Milo Dunley!
He could not help but sneer and warn him, “Young man, do you know who you’re talking to? It seems
that
you still don’t understand the power of my Dunley family in Flower City. My name is…”
“Your name is Milo Dunley. In Flower City, you can be considered a great figure. Even the six
underground
lords of Flower City have to show you some respect. You have 23 enterprises in Flower City, holding the
positions of executive director and shareholder. Your assets are worth about five billion dollars.
Moreover, you also have a certain position in the main Dunley family. Am I right?” Philip grinned as he
revealed Milo’s background like he was reporting the weather forecast. After hearing this, Milo’s heart
trembled as he looked at Philip suspiciously. Then, he smiled and said, “Very
well, I didn’t expect that you’ve actually looked into my background. In that case, you should know that
you
can’t get out of Flower City without my permission!” As soon as he said that, the door of the private room
was violently pushed open from the outside with a bang!
Instantly, more than a dozen burly men with weapons rushed in, all of them staring intently at Philip!
“Philip, I didn’t want to do this at first, but you’re too arrogant and persistent. You simply refuse to
compromise and insist on getting to this point Who is to blame?” Milo sneered and tugged at the tie of his
suit. After that, he looked around the room and said with a grim smile, “Besides, you’re so bold to come
alone. You
really don’t know what’s good for you.” Homer was full of smiles at this moment. Staring grimly at the
lone Philip, he said, “Boy, let me ask you now. Can we forget about this matter?”
“Haha!”
This young and immature boy was in trouble this time!
However, just when Milo and Homer thought that Philip would surrender, the other party shrugged and
laughed indifferently. He said, “So few people? Aren’t you ashamed to call yourself the overlord of Flower
City?”
The First Heir – Chapter 1783
Hearing this, Milo’s face darkened. Although he was sullen, he still said with a smile, “What did you say?
Are you looking down on me?” Milo was almost dying of laughter. This arrogant guy actually dared to say
something like this. He did not take
him seriously at all!
This was Flower City of Charbury!
If one were to mention who had the greatest power in Flower City, it was undoubtedly the Dunley family!
The brothers Homer and Milo Dunley!
Although Homer was ranked fourth in the branch Dunley family while Milo was the seventh, and several
of
the brothers were scattered in other areas of Charbury so they hardly contacted each other, the seven
brothers
of this branch Dunley family would definitely gather together to fight against a common enemy as long as
Milo made the call! “Philip, I advise you not to think too highly of yourself. This is Flower City of Charbury,
my territory! Since
you’ve stepped into this hotel today, it means that if we don’t reach a settlement, you won’t be able to
walk
out of here!” Milo said sharply as a deep chill flashed in the corner of his eyes. Several burly guys behind
him also started sneering. “Master Milo, who is this brat? How dare he look down on you like that?”
“In my opinion, just break his limbs and throw him on the street.”
“At first glance, he looks tall and skinny with a pale face. I’m sure he must be weak as hell.” Faced with
these people’s ridicule and disdain, Philip just smiled calmly. He looked at the two brothers while
saying, “Just try and see if I can walk out of this hotel.”
“Arrogant!” Homer was furious. He pointed at Philip and shouted, “Men, take him down and break his
limbs. I want to see
how long his mouth can remain so stubborn!” As soon as he said that, the burly guys behind Milo stood
forward. They rolled up their sleeves and looked like
they were about to kill Philip on the spot! “Kid, before we kill you, kneel down and apologize to our
Master Milo!” One of the guys in the lead had an
arrogant smile on his face. Hearing this, several other guys also echoed, “That’s right. If you dare
provoke our Master Milo, you’re just
looking for death!”
“Hurry up! Kneel and apologize to our Master Milo. When we take action later, maybe we can go gentler
on
you! Otherwise, you’ll suffer a fate worse than death!” Faced with the threats and sneers from these
people, Philip merely shook his head indifferently. With his
hands in his trouser pockets, he slowly stood up from the sofa. He said nonchalantly, “Are you guys so
sure
you can take me down?”
“Haha! Ridiculous! There are a dozen of us here. Do you think we can’t take you down?” One of them
laughed loudly with a mocking expression on his face.
“Stop talking nonsense with him and just break his limbs. He’ll know to beg for mercy in a while!” Another
person sneered and squeezed his fist, making a creaking sound. Just as they walked toward Philip, an
angry shout suddenly sounded outside the door of the private room! “Stop! Who dares to make a move
against Mr. Clarke?!” Milo and Homer immediately looked back and saw a group of a dozen people
rushing in through the door. The
person in the lead was none other than Jowin Benson, one of the six underground lords in Flower City!
Jowin’s status in Flower City was not inferior to Milo. After all, he was a renowned lord of the
underground
scene. His background had been forged over the years. In Flower City, no one would dare to disrespect
the six
lords. That was because long ago in Flower City, there was a legend about the six great families.
The First Heir – Chapter 1784
The branch Dunley family only moved here later, and to a large extent, they had not gained respect from
the
locals in Flower City. Later, due to the high status of the main Dunley family in Charbury, other regions
were
in awe of the talents in the Dunley family. If ranked by seniority and origin, it was still far from enough for
the
branch Dunley family to dominate Flower City. This formed a situation where all the forces held each
other in check. In fact, the six underground lords of
Flower City did not accept the Dunley family at all. However, they were so apprehensive of the prestige
and
strength of the main Dunley family in Charbury that they were still respectful of Milo. At this moment,
Jowin entered the private room. A bunch of his underlings followed closely. They each had
a crew cut and tattoos, which made them look extraordinarily domineering. Their appearance made Milo
sullen. “Master Jowin, what brings you here?” Although Milo inwardly refused to yield to Jowin, he still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsmiled and asked when he saw him. His attitude was
neither respectful nor fearful. Jowin Benson was ranked second among the six lords in Flower City.
Known as Master Jowin, he was very
influential in Flower City. It was rumored that no one would dare disrespect Master Jowin in Flower City.
That was because any dispute that occurred in Flower City would end up with Jowin stepping in and
solving
it. His status in Flower City was very high!
Jowin looked at Milo indifferently and passed by him. Then, in the crowd’s astonished gaze, he walked
up to
Philip, bowed respectfully, and said, “Young Master Clarke, sorry I’m late. I just received a call from Mr.
Thomas. Leave the rest to me.”
Philip glanced at Jowin, nodded, and stood aside calmly. This scene naturally caused Milo, Homer, and
others
to be shocked and overwhelmed. This was Master Jowin Benson of the six lords in Flower City!
He was a renowned figure in Flower City!
However, at this moment, he was so respectful to the young man in front of them. Milo’s face turned dark
in a flash. He did not expect Philip to know Jowin, and it seemed that Jowin respected
Philip a lot!
Things were getting a little tricky. Homer’s face looked worse now and he was in a very bad mood. After
looking at his seventh brother who was
not speaking, he stepped forward and said to Jowin coldly, “Master Jowin, are you going to intervene in
this
matter? This is a private matter of our Dunley family. Although you have some status in Flower City, you
should carefully consider whether to interfere with this.” Hearing this, Jowin turned around. He stared at
Homer coldly and said solemnly, “Homer Dunley, you’re not
yet qualified to question my actions, right?”
“You!” Homer gritted his teeth in anger at this. He was about to say something when Milo stopped him.
Milo looked at Jowin and asked, “Master Jowin, are you sure you want to interfere in this matter?”
Jowin smiled and said, “Milo, isn’t it obvious? As I said when I entered the room just now, no one can do
anything to Young Master Clarke in Flower City! Even if you’re a member of the Dunley family, you can’t
either.”
“Really?” Milo’s face was full of chills, and the corners of his eyes twitched. His brows were wrinkled in a
deep frown
The First Heir – Chapter 1785
Jowin chuckled and said, “Milo, I’m not joking with you. With me around today, don’t even think of laying
a finger on Young Master Clarke.”
Jowin made it very clear, and the scowl on the Dunley brothers’ faces worsened. Jowin Benson was
determined to go against them! “Master Jowin, this is Flower City of Charbury. Are you sure you don’t
want to consider the status of the
Dunley family before making a decision?” Milo’s face was cold, and his voice sounded like it came from
the
depths of an ice cave. It made people involuntarily shiver upon hearing it. Yes, this was Flower City,
Charbury. Here, the Dunley family owned the sky and the land. By doing this, Jowin would offend the
Dunley family!
Nothing good would come out of those who offended the Dunley family. However, to everyone’s surprise,
Jowin sneered and said, “Milo, this is indeed Flower City of Charbury, but
you’ve misunderstood one thing. Flower City will always be Flower City, not the land of your Dunley
family. Besides, you’re just a branch of the Dunley family. You’re far from qualified to threaten me. If
someone from
the main Dunley came and said something like that, I might consider it. However, since it’s you, I’m afraid
it
won’t be that easy.” Hearing these words, the expression on Milo‘s face showed his uncertainty. With
chills in his eyes, he sneered
and said, “It seems that you’re very dissatisfied with me. I wonder if this is your intention or the shared
intention of the six lords?” Milo had long known that four of the six lords were unhappy with him while the
other two had already been
bought over by him.
At this point, Homer had discerned the situation. He quietly approached Milo and whispered in his ear,
“Milo, why don’t we forget about it for the time being and let them go? I think we should reconsider this
matter. After all, Jowin himself has stepped forward. If we offend him, it’s tantamount to offending the
other three. It
won’t be good for either of us. Besides, Philip is already in Flower City. We have plenty of time to play
with
him slowly.” Homer did not want to see Milo offending Jowin because of him. That would be too
disadvantageous. After all,
the person in question, Philip Clarke, was still standing there with ease. If they were the first to make a
move,
they would certainly end up getting injured. Milo frowned and thought about it for a moment. He then
nodded and said coldly, “Make way!” Even though his men looked dissatisfied, they still stepped aside
and gave way. Jowin smiled as he turned to Philip, saying respectfully, “Young Master Clarke, after you.”
Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked to Milo and Homer swaggeringly, and said with a
chuckle, “Our game has just begun. I hope you can hang on.” After that, Philip left the hotel. Obviously,
the ones bought over by Clarke Group would be those four. The other two still stood behind Milo
Dunley. Jowin smiled lightly and said, “Since you already know, there’s nothing more to say between us. I
want you
and your people to evacuate the hotel immediately. Otherwise, don’t blame me for making things
difficult.” As soon as the words left his mouth, the dozen men brought by Jowin were already confronting
the dozen
brawny men brought by Milo.
However, no one made a move. That was because they knew the price of making a move. They had to
weigh the consequences carefully.
The First Heir – Chapter 1786
Jowin followed him. Before he left, he turned and said to Milo, “Milo, I have to give you a piece of advice.
Don’t think of fighting against Young Master Clarke. You’ll die without a burial place.” Looking at the
backs of Jowin and Philip as they left, the brothers, Milo and Homer, exchanged glances with
fierce cold intent flickering in their eyes. Suddenly, Milo spoke, “This guy has some tricks up his sleeve.”
Homer nodded. Philip’s attack was like a sudden storm that sent punch after punch. Last night should
have been a test while
this morning was the killing move. Just now, he threw a few more punches and caught the two brothers
off
guard. This kid was too villainous. In just one day, he had taken down more than 20 enterprises in Flower
City and
bought over four out of the six underground lords. Milo had no choice but to pay serious attention to this
man of such strength and means. After thinking about it, Homer said, “Milo, I think that Philip Clarke isn’t
as weak as he seems on the surface. He might really have some means and power. That Mr. Thomas
mentioned by Jowin just now sounds familiar
to me.”
“Familiar?” Milo’s eyes tensed followed by a look of surprise. “You mean…?” Homer looked at Milo and
said with a nod, “That’s right, it’s probably the new richest man in the Penhart
region, George Thomas. If he’s really Philip’s backer, we might not be strong enough to deal with Philip.
If
necessary, you might need to contact someone from the main family to take action.”
Milo’s face darkened, and his mind was full of thoughts. ‘George Thomas?’ That would indeed be very
tricky. “Don’t panic, it’s not time yet,” Milo said with a chill in his eyes before adding, “If that’s the case,
we can
only…” He raised his hand and made a swiping motion across his neck. Homer did not display any
surprise at this but nodded and said, “We can do that. This is Flower City. Whatever happens, we can
suppress it.” As he said that, he seemed to have thought of something and said, “I’ve already arranged
for Ernie to go to
Uppercreek. I’ll ask him how things went.” After that, Homer picked up the phone and dialed Ernie’s
number but no one answered for a long time. This
caused a sense of foreboding to well up in Homer’s heart. He turned to Milo with a frown and said, “No
one
answered.” Milo put his hands behind his back, his eyes growing tense. He said, “No need to call
anymore. Ernie must
have failed.” Hearing that, Homer’s face darkened. Although he did not want to accept this fact, he knew
that it was likely
Ernie had failed the mission judging from the current situation. Milo thought about it and said, “It seems
that Uppercreek is a tough nut to crack. We may not be able to touch
his family there. We can only set our eyes on Flower City.”
After saying that, Milo took out his cell phone and dialed a number. “Master Milo, you’re early today.
What can I do for you?” There was a hearty voice on the other end of the
phone. If the locals of Flower City heard this voice, they would immediately scream in excitement. He
was the most
belligerent of the six lords of Flower City, Fred Able, nicknamed Fat Dragon King!
Milo said directly, “Fred, I need you to do something.”
The First Heir – Chapter 1787
“Master Milo, feel free to give me your orders. I’ll definitely get it done for you!” On the other end of the
phone, Fred said with a smile. The relationship between Milo and Fred was relatively close, so without
any pretense, Milo said, “My fourth
brother’s company is being targeted by a kid named Philip Clarke from Uppercreek. He seems to have
the
backing of Victor Bell from Uppercreek as well as the new richest man in the Penhart region.”
“Victor Bell? I’ve heard of him, but so what? It’s just Uppercreek. I’m not afraid of him!” Fred immediately
exclaimed, “It’s the new richest man in Penhart who’s a bit difficult to deal with but don’t
worry, Flower City is our territory. Even the richest man in the country has to abide by our rules if he
comes
to Flower City. That kid’s name is Philip Clarke, right? Okay, I’ll ask my men to meet him right away. We’ll
find him and kill him.” Milo smiled and said, “Fat Dragon, I have to remind you that he has Jowin Benson
with him.”
“Benson the second?” Fred frowned when he heard the name and said coldly, “He wants to intervene in
this matter too? It seems that
this kid named Philip Clarke is really something. But this is nothing. Since Jowin wants to die, he can die
with
him. Without Jowin in Flower City, I can still handle everything.” Fred was very cocky. In his opinion, the
other five of the six lords were just people standing in his way. However, they usually did not cross each
other’s paths, so there were few major conflicts. Despite that, there had been minor frictions in private
over territorial disputes. Even so, those were nothing. Hearing that from Fred, Milo’s cold expression
slowly turned into a smile. He said, “I’ll have to trouble you
to handle this matter for me, then. After the deed is done, I’ll definitely get you Jowin’s position as the
second
lord of Flower City. When the time comes, the six lords will become five and your position will be the
biggest!”
“Haha, I’m grateful for your help.” Fred laughed in delight. After that, he added, “Master Milo, just wait. I’ll
break the kid’s legs and bring him to you.” With that said, Fred ended the call. At this moment, he was in
a clubhouse with several charming beauties to accompany him. Fred Able had a fat body and a pair of
small eyes. At this moment, he had a wicked smile on his face. He wore
gold chains on his hands and neck. He was gnawing on a greasy pork knuckle as he dialed a number on
the
phone, ordering, “Bring some people and immediately find a kid named Philip Clarke in Flower City for
me. By hook or by crook, bring him to me, dead or alive.” After saying that, he tossed the phone on the
coffee table, picked up a glass full of wine, and finished it in one
gulp. Philip left the hotel and went straight to another hotel that had already been booked for him. In the
hotel suite, Jowin Benson and the other three lords of Flower City were standing behind Philip
respectfully. “Young Master Clarke, what shall we do next?” Jowin asked. Philip put his hands behind his
back and took a good look at Flower City. It was a big and prosperous city,
indeed. He looked at the scenery outside the window with a searing gaze. Then, he turned around, his
eyes sweeping
across the four people sharply. He asked, “Who do you think Milo Dunley will look for to deal with me
next?”
The four looked at each other before Jowin bowed and answered, “If my guess is correct, it should be
Fat
Dragon or Fred Able. He shares the best relationship with Milo. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Fred
is
licking his boots. Moreover, Fred has a bad reputation in Flower City. The few of us don’t care to be in his
company.” Philip frowned and asked, “Fred Able?”
Jowin quickly replied, “Young Master Clarke, Fred is ranked fourth in Flower City. He’s vicious and
usually
dabbles in dirty dealings. Moreover, this person is extremely lecherous and domineering. He’s also the
most
belligerent one among the six of us. He has broken too many rules in the past and has always wanted to
get rid
of the other five of us. To be honest, this person is the most cunning and difficult to deal with. He’s also
the
most despicable. We don’t really want to get involved with such a guy, so we usually never cross each
other’s
paths. But this time, as long as Milo makes a request, Fat Dragon will definitely take action.”
The First Heir – Chapter 1788
Philip nodded and asked, “Are you saying that you can’t deal with Fred Able?”
Jowin smiled and said, “Young Master Clarke, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not that we can’ t deal with him
but
it’s not worth it. If he dares to come here, I’ll be the first to deal with him.” Philip did not say anything.
With his hands behind his back, he narrowed his eyes as if he was thinking about
something. He said, “My time is limited. I want the Dunley family to disappear from Flower City by today.
You guys can clean up the rest of the mess. Without Homer Dunley and Milo Dunley as your rivals, it
should
be easier for you to manage Flower City in the future.”
Jowin smiled. Philip was right. Without Mile and Homer, they would be more at ease. Several of them
looked at each other. One of them
stood out and asked, “Young Master Clarke, what do you have in mind?” The comer of Philip’s mouth
curved upward, revealing a hint of coldness. He said, “Since they refuse to
repent, we’ll let them know the taste of pain. I want you to spare no effort to bring down Homer Dunley
and
Milo Dunley, including the ones standing behind them! I want Homer Dunley and his son, as well as Milo
Dunley, to crawl on their knees in front of me!” Hearing this, Jowin was thrilled!
For a long time, no one had dared to say this to the Dunley brothers. The branches of the Dunley family
were
not small in Charbury. Those who had challenged the branch Dunley family in the past were all dead.
However, Philip gave them a very unusual feeling this time around. This young man had a deep
background
and unparalleled strength. Milo was simply seeking death when he messed with such a person.
“Understood, Young Master Clarke. We’ll go back and make arrangements,” Jowin said. After that, he led
the other three and left the hotel. As soon as they left, Fred’s minions arrived at the hotel’s
entrance. Seven or eight black SUVs suddenly stopped at the roadside. Clatter!
Car doors opened and people with shiny long daggers jumped down from the vehicles one after another.
All of
them were masked and looked vicious!
Fred’s minions were all well trained fighters. They did not rush into the hotel mindlessly but scattered in
small
teams of twos or threes. Two of them took the lead and walked into the hotel. They threatened the front
desk
attendants to turn off the surveillance cameras before they subdued all the security guards. Following
that,
three people blocked the main entrance, two blocked the elevator entrance, and two blocked the
stairway
entrance. Others lay in ambush at the back door of the hotel. The entire hotel was completely
surrounded in less than ten
minutes!
The man in the lead held a long dagger in his hand. His eyes were full of chills as he gestured to his
men. In
an instant, seven or eight people took the elevator to the targeted floor. Another seven or eight climbed
up the
stairs. Soon, they arrived at the door of the suite where Philip was staying. With a glance and a nod,
several of them
kicked the door of the room in unison!
Bang!
The door of the room was kicked open, but the scene inside scared them and nearly made them piss
their
pants!
The First Heir – Chapter 1789
Inside the room was a group of fully armed bodyguards in black suits!
These bodyguards stared indifferently at the people standing at the door with long daggers in their
hands. At
this time, the guy in the lead looked at the weapons in the other party’s hands and compared them to the
long
daggers in their hands before panicking!
This… How the hell could they make a capture like this?!
There was simply a world of difference in equipment!
Were they supposed to fight against cannons with kitchen knives?
Now, all the guys standing at the door felt their legs shaking and no one dared to rush in. However, the
guys who were in the second group were unaware of the situation inside the room. All of them
raised the long daggers in their hands and shouted enthusiastically as they rushed in to grab credit!
Thus, the situation was a bit funny. The first group of people at the door were forcibly pushed in by the
second group behind them. Pop!
The first group of people was being squeezed inside!
Those people at the back were about to cheer in support when they saw the heavily armed bodyguards
holding
guns in the room. They were instantly stunned silly!
Pop!
This group of dumbfounded guys was pushed inside too! “Holy sh*t! We got the wrong information. The
other party has bodyguards!”
“What’s up with these people? Where did the guns come from?”
“Damn it! Run! Why are you still standing here? Do you want to die?” At once, these people turned
around to run!
However, too many people had rushed in and there was still another bunch of gangsters blocking the
door. For
a while, the door was completely blocked. No one could enter or exit, and chaos ensued. Philip put one
hand in his trouser pocket while holding a glass of red wine with the other. He shook his head
helplessly. He turned around and said coldly, “Take them down.”
Instantly, the group of heavily armed bodyguards sprang into action! “Drop your weapons! Don’ t move!”
“Do not resist! Violators will be killed!”
“Drop your weapons or we will fire!”
At the same time, at the front and back doors of the hotel, more than a dozen special bodyguards
dressed in
black combat uniforms and armed with guns suddenly rushed out from the cars parked on the roadside
and
behind the nearby buildings!
They swarmed up and directly subdued all those gangsters guarding the front and back doors!
In the hotel, as soon as the elevator door opened, fully armed combat bodyguards rushed out. Before the
gangsters guarding the place could react, the bodyguards had already rushed over, kicked the
gangsters, and
backhanded them against the wall or to the floor!
Screams and shouts could be heard one after another!
This scene happened within a few minutes. When everyone finally reacted again, they discovered that
the
gangsters who surrounded the hotel were all subdued!
In less than ten minutes, all the gangsters were forced to kneel in front of Philip. There were several rows
of
people kneeling. Philip looked indifferent as he stood with his hands behind his back. Looking at so many
people in front of
him, he asked coldly, “Did Fred Able send you here?” The man who was leading the group was kneeling
on the floor, looking panicked as he trembled. He had never
seen anything like this before. Could normal people possess this power?
These bodyguards were all fully armed! “Mister, we were wrong. We shouldn’t have barged in. Please let
us go. I still have a family to support. I can’t
let anything happen to me.” The man who took the lead immediately begged for mercy in tears.
At his words, many people behind him followed suit and begged for mercy too.
The First Heir – Chapter 1790
Philip raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, “Tell me, did Fred Able send you?” The man in the lead
darted his eyes around and shook his head desperately while saying, “No, Mister, you’ve
misunderstood. We just got the wrong person. It’s a misunderstanding. I hope you can be generous and
let us
go.” Philip sneered and said, “Still acting tough?” After that, he motioned to the bodyguards and said,
“Loosen them up a little until they’re willing to talk.”
“Yes!” A few bodyguards responded before squeezing their fists and dragging the gangsters up from the
floor. They
gave them a violent beating on the spot!
Instantly, their miserable screams echoed in the room. The rest of the guys kneeling on the floor
trembled. They did not dare to look at the scene. It was too horrible!
It was simply inhuman torture. Then, Philip continued to ask, “Now, is anyone willing to answer my
question? Did Fred Able send you
here?” The remaining gangsters looked at each other while panicking in their hearts. They dared not
offend Fred. He
was the Fat Dragon King of Flower City!
If they betrayed him, not only would they die but their family members would be implicated as well. Thus,
these people dared not say anything and could only grit their teeth in silence. Seeing that they still
refused to admit it, Philip’s face became gloomier. He did not expect these people to be
so tough. At this time, one of Jowin Benson’s underlings walked over and said to Philip with a bow,
“Young Master
Clarke, these people will never admit it. They don’t dare to because Fred has a very bad reputation in
Flower
City. He treats his subordinates very harshly! Those who betrayed him in the past were immediately
slaughtered by him!” Hearing that, Philip frowned and his face went cold. After thinking about it, he said
to them, “Tell me if Fred
Able sent you here. You’ve seen my strength. As long as one of you speaks, I can promise to send you
out of
Flower City and you’ll be free of worries for the rest of your life. Naturally, your families will be safe as
well.” After that, Philip did not say anything else and just waited in silence. His words exploded in the
minds of the
gangsters. They struggled as they pondered over it!
Within two minutes, one of the younger guys stood up abruptly and shouted, “Mister, I’ll tell you! It was
Fred
Able who sent us here. I beg of you, please let me go. I really don’t want to die.” After this person was
done speaking, the other guys who were still hesitating could not stand it any longer. They also stood up
desperately and shouted, “Mister, I’ll also admit it. Fred was the one who sent us here!”
“Mister, me too. Please let me go. I beg of you!”
“Mister, I don’t want to die. Please forgive me!” Some people even started fighting on the spot.
Looking at this chaotic scene, Philip immediately lost interest. He turned to the bodyguard beside him
and said, “Follow the plan.” The bodyguard responded and looked at Philip’s departing back before
taking out his phone to make several
calls. ***
Fred Able was in the clubhouse, fooling around with a few beauties with hot figures. At this moment, the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdoor of the private room was abruptly pushed open and an underling rushed in while
shouting, “Fred, something’s wrong!” Fred’s face froze. He turned to glare at the underling who rushed in
and kicked him while cursing, “Damn it, can’t you see that I’m having fun? What a spoilsport!”
The First Heir – Chapter 1791
Fred picked up the wine glass on the table and finished it in one gulp before abruptly throwing it on the
table. He put his arms around the two charming beauties and said, “Tell me, what’s wrong.”
“F-Fred, Rocky and the gang went to capture Philip Clarke but everyone was wiped out! We’ve lost all
contact with them!” the underling got up from the ground and said while trembling. “What?!” Fred was
shocked and stood up from the sofa in astonishment!
The few beauties around wanted to go over to comfort him but Fred flew into a temper and slapped them
while
shouting, “Get lost!” The beauties covered their red cheeks and ran out of the door in a hurry. Fred
scowled and asked, “What’s going on? Rocky brought a dozen elites with him but you’re saying
everyone was wiped out?” Rocky was one of Fred’s most capable followers. He had been with him for
seven to eight years. He had never
failed a mission. Any task entrusted to him would be done well. The guy shuddered and lowered his
head as he quickly said, “I saw it with my own eyes. Rocky and the others
were all tied up and taken away from the hotel!”
“Fck!” Fred was furious and violently overturned the coffee table, causing the bottles and glasses to come crashing on the floor. He walked back and forth in the private room with his hands on his hips, chills radiating from his body. After that, he suddenly turned around, stared at the underling, and asked, “Do you know who caught them?” The underling shook his head and replied, “I’m not sure yet. I’ve never seen this gang in Flower City. I don’t think they’re local security personnel.” Smack! Fred slapped the underling on the face and cursed, “Don’t know? Why don’t you hurry up and find out, then? Find out who the other party is and tell them that if they mess with my people, they’re going up against me, Fred Able!” The underling immediately bowed and said, “Y-Yes, okay.” With that said, he turned around and was about to leave when Fred added, “Wait a minute, what’s the situation in the hotel? Is Philip Clarke still there?” The guy replied, “He should be. I only saw Rocky and the gang being taken out. There was no
sign of Philip.” Fred nodded, a fierce and ruthless look flashing in the corner of his eyes. He said, “Contact the five lieutenants. Tell them to gather everyone and surround the hotel completely. I’ll handle this matter personally this time! I don‘t believe that a kid from out of town can make any waves in Flower City!” “Yes!” The underling replied and quickly left the private room. About ten minutes later, a few luxury cars quickly drove up to the entrance of the club. The cars were either Mercedes-Benz S-Class or Porsche. One after another, dignified figures of Flower City got down from the cars! They were the five lieutenants working under Fred. The five people got out of their cars, stood together at the entrance of the clubhouse, and looked at each other. One of them, a burly man with a beard, asked with a puzzled face, “Why did Fred call us here in such a hurry? Could it be that Benson wants to strike out at us?” Another slender middle aged man with his hands behind his back and wearing black rimmed glasses narrowed his small eyes slightly. Shaking his head, he said, “I’m not sure, but I’ve heard tumors in the past two days that it’s because of the Dunley family.” “The Dunley family? Homer Dunley?” The woman was in a red dress and had a curvaceous hot figure. She looked like she was in her 30s, a mature beauty. She was quite reputable in Flower City and the only woman among these people. She was nicknamed Madame Red. Regardless of her beautiful appearance and attractive figure, she was actually a vicious femme fatale. Despite her charming face, she had a wicked heart! The men who had died in her hands could not be counted with just ten fingers. The First Heir – Chapter 1792 “Stop guessing. Let’s go in and find out. Fred is waiting for us.” A gray haired middle-aged man wearing a gray suit walked straight into the clubhouse after speaking. The other four also followed him inside. Before long, they saw Fred sitting on the sofa in the most luxurious private room of the clubhouse. Beside him, a maid dressed in skimpy clothes was making tea on her knees. There were six cups in total. At their arrival, Fred motioned and said, “Sit down and have some tea.” The five people sat down, picked up the cups on the table, and gulped everything down in one go. The man with the beard was the first to ask, “Fred, what’s wrong? Why did you gather us in such a hurry?” Fred glanced at the bearded man. He had been with him for ten years. He was loyal and honest, just a little quick tempered and irritable. Without delay, Fred took a sip of warm tea and said,“ I’ve gathered all of you here today to go to a place with me later and deal with one person.” “Is it Jowin Benson?” the middle-aged man in a gray suit asked. Fred shook his
head and said, “No, but it’s pretty much the same. The person I have to deal with this time is a bit tricky and has some connections with Jowin. To be exact, Jowin is now one of his lackeys.” Hiss! As soon as Fred said that, the expressions of everyone in the room froze! Jowin Benson was a lackey of the other party now? In that case, did the person Fred was going to deal with have a special identity? The middle- aged man wearing glasses pushed his frame. A trace of wisdom flashed in his eyes as he asked, “Fred, is it going to be a do or die situation, or is it just for show?” Fred glanced at him before he got up and walked to the side. He took a bottle of red wine from the wine rack and said, “Do or die. Rocky has been sent in by them. Those who mess with my people have to pay the price.” Hearing this, the faces of these five people darkened. Rocky had been arrested? This would be tricky, indeed. According to Fred’s temper, he definitely would not let this matter rest. The bearded man slammed his hand on the table and yelled, “Fred, just tell me what you want me to do. I’ll be the first to charge in! I’ll kill the person who dared to arrest Rocky and be disrespectful to you!” A short fat man who had not spoken also said at this time, “I’ll listen to your orders.” The middle-aged man with glasses and the man in a gray suit, as well as Madame Red, glanced at each other. A trace of contemplation flashed from the corners of their eyes but they did not express their opinions immediately. With a faint smile, Fred asked, “Do you guys have other ideas?” The middle-aged man with glasses smiled and said, “Fred, I think we should reconsider this matter. Since Jowin has to listen to the other party, we might end up like Rocky if we act rashly.” The middle-aged man in a gray suit also followed suit. “I think Kris has a point. Why don’t we discuss it first?” Fred smiled coldly, turned to look at the charming Madame Red who had her fair thighs exposed, and asked, “What do you think?” The First Heir – Chapter 1793 Madame Red pursed her lips in a smile and said, “If I’m hearing correctly, isn’t he just a young kid from out of town? Jowin Benson may be willing to become his lackey but I am not.” Fred nodded. His gaze shifted to Kris and the man in a suit. He asked, “Kris, Oscar, what do you think?” At this moment, Kris Bush and Oscar Gibbs exchanged a glance. Kris thought about it and said hesitantly, “Fred, I think we should consider this matter from a long term perspective. If I’m not mistaken, Master Milo must have been the one who asked you to take action this time. If even Master Milo can’t handle this matter, do you think we can?” Fred scowled and said coldly, “In Flower City, there’s nothing I can’t do! Are you doubting my strength now?” While saying that, the
corner of Fred’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Kris Bush used to be Fred’s strategist. Before making any big or small decisions, he would discuss them with Kris. However, in recent years, Kris’ working style and handling methods had made Fred very upset. Kris had crossed the line! There were also rumors among people of the lower levels that Kris wanted to rise to the top. This made Fred suspicious and apprehensive of Kris. Kris’ reputation was quite significant in the eyes of the underlings. If he really wanted to rise to the top, there was a 40% chance! Moreover, he was good at winning the hearts of others. If that happened, he might really succeed! Thus, to avoid this from happening, Fred had sent Kris to the suburbs to narrow his sphere of influence. Kris’ eyes tensed as he quickly said, “Fred, I don’t mean that. I’m just saying that if Master Milo asked you to do something that even he can’t do, there are only two possibilities…” However, before he finished speaking, Fred flew into a temper and interrupted him while saying coldly, “Kris, are you trying to take charge and disobey my words? I said I want to take action against that kid. I didn’t. ask for your opinion!” This sentence caused Kris’ words to be stuck in his throat. He frowned, a cold glint flashing in the corner of his eyes as he said, “Understood.” As he said that, he clenched his fists and lowered his head. No one knew what was going through his mind. Kris was naturally aware of Fred’s indifference toward him in recent years. He also knew about the rumors spread by the people under him. However, he had never taken all of this to heart. Kris Bush had a strong ambition! In many cases, he would do things as told. Fred snorted coldly before looking at Oscar on the side, asking, “What about you?” Oscar laughed in self-deprecation and said, “I’ ll listen to you.” Fred poured wine for the five people and raised his glass. “This time, I’m not only dealing with the kid from out of town but also Jowin Benson, so don’t hide your strength. As long as we take down Jowin, Flower City will be ours.” After saying that, Fred tilted his head back and gulped the wine down. The other five also finished their wine while lost in their own thoughts. Then, they left the club and gathered their people together. Kris returned to his car, dialed a number, and said, “Select half of our men while the other half should stay put and wait for my further instructions. Get ready to take down all of Fred’s main properties in Flower City! Also, contact Jowin Benson and tell him that I agree to the conditions!” After ending the call, Kris pushed the frame of his glasses upward. Through the glass of the car window, he looked at Fred as he walked out of the clubhouse and got into his Bentley. A cold glint flashed in the
corner of his eyes. It was high time to replace Fred Able’s position as one of the six lords of Flower City! After returning to his car, Oscar Gibbs also dialed a number and said, “Select 20% of our men. From the rest, get 20% to keep an eye on Kris’ movements. For the remaining 60%, enter the city, lie in ambush, and wait for my orders! This time, we must take everything that Fred has!” After ending the call, Oscar glanced at Kris’ car that was slowly leaving as a sneer appeared on his face. Back then, the rumor about Kris was spread by Oscar. The First Heir – Chapter 1794 This was a plan three years in the making. Three years ago, Kris lost Fred’s trust and was gradually ostracized. The other three also had their own agenda and made arrangements of their own. Half an hour later. Fred and the other five people’s cars had already arrived at the entrance of the hotel where Philip was staying! Behind their cars were more than a dozen black SUVs! Bang, clatter! The car doors opened and dozens of ferocious looking thugs armed with weapons jumped out of the cars. They stood on both sides of the road, bowing and respectfully waiting for the first few cars ahead to open the door. At the same time, a steady stream of thugs with baseball bats and other weapons also emerged from both sides of the long street to gather at the hotel’s entrance. These were Fred’s people. Of course, the manpower belonging to his five lieutenants also emerged from the surrounding streets. At a glance, the place was packed to the brim for a few hundred meters! It looked like a great battle was about to start! In less than five minutes, the surrounding area was jam packed. Everyone’s target was the ten story hotel in front of them! It was a five star hotel in Flower City, a landmark! As for the surrounding locals, they had already fled in a panic! “Holy sht! What’s going on? Isn’t he Fred Able? Who is he after? This is such a big show!”
“It’s been years since I’ve seen such a spectacle!”
“Yeah, the last time was five years ago when Fred and Jowin fought each other. It alarmed many people
but
nothing happened in the end.” Following the discussion of the onlookers around, their emotions all
became flustered. As Oscar Gibbs, Kris Bush, Madame Red, and the other two got down from their cars,
the discussions grew
noisier due to everybody’s surprise. They were Fred Able’s five lieutenants!
They had actually appeared together!
Immediately after, in the crowd’s astonished gaze, Fred walked down from the car while dressed in a
white
suit. This was a custom made suit. Although Fred was obese, no one dared to make a joke about his
figure. He was an overlord of the area, a
ruthless man!
Fred stepped out of the car with a cigar in his mouth, looking at the hotel building in front of him
indifferently.
With a wave of his hand, he led his people and walked straight into the hotel lobby!
As for the group of underlings, they remained outside. At this moment, Philip was standing in front of the
large French windows in the most luxurious suite on the
top floor. With one hand in his trouser pocket, he held a coffee cup in the other hand. He took a sip of hot
coffee and looked at the scene downstairs. He sneered and said, “The guests have arrived. I hope my
welcome gift isn’t too shabby.”
Jowin, who was standing behind Philip, was a little excited because he just found out about the welcome
gift
Philip had prepared for Fred. He could not wait to see how miserable Fred’s arrogant face would become
after
he entered the door.
The First Heir – Chapter 1795
Meanwhile, Fred and his five lieutenants had arrived at the door of Philip’s suite. Fred swaggered into
the suite and saw Philip standing in front of the large French windows with his hands
behind his back and a faint smile on his lips. He looked very young. ‘Was he the Philip Clarke who Milo
Dunley wanted to get rid of?’ ‘He was too young!’ At the same time, he also saw Jowin Benson standing
next to Philip. He said with a sneer, “Hehe, Jowin, there
are talks outside that you’ve become someone’s lackey. I thought it was a rumor but it seems to be true.
You
really are a disgrace to the six lords of Flower City.” Fred was arrogant. He paid no attention to Philip at
all, his focus completely on Jowin. In Fred’s perception, Philip was no more than a strong figure from out
of town. Although he had some
strength and means, he could never overpower the local forces of Flower City!
He was still most apprehensive of Jowin Benson. What if the mastermind behind the scenes was Jowin?
It was not impossible for Jowin to have arranged everything that had happened.
At this time, Kris Bush, Oscar Gibbs, and the others had also entered the suite. They stood behind Fred
and
confronted Philip, Jowin, and the rest together. Jowin chuckled and said to Fred, “Fred, it’s useless for
you to annoy me with your words. You’re not qualified
to criticize what I do.” As he said that, his eyes swept over Fred and the five lieutenants behind him
before asking, “Do you want to
stand up for the branch Dunley family? What are the terms that Milo Dunley promised you for you to
bring so
many people here this time?” Hearing this, Fred sat on the sofa swaggeringly and glanced mockingly at
Jowin. He said, “Jowin, I’m not
doing this for Milo. I’m doing this for myself. Don’t forget that this is Flower City. A kid from outside dares
to kick up such a big fuss in Flower City. If word of this spreads, wouldn’t the reputation of the six lords of
Flower City be ruined?” Having said that, Fred glanced at Philip and found that this kid had a calm
expression on his face as if he was
not paying attention to the situation in front of him at all. This made Fred somewhat upset. This kid was
pretty cocky. Jowin chuckled and said, “Why are you talking to me about the six lords of Flower City
now? The reputation
of the six lords already became a joke when you became the lackey of the Dunley family!”
Jowin’s tone became very tough and there was a biting chill in his eyes!
Fred Able was the first person to break the rules of Flower City yet he still had the audacity to criticize
Jowin. Fred snorted and said, “I won’t bother arguing with you. Having brought so many people here
today, I only
have two conditions. Do you want to hear them?”
When he said this, Fred’s face was full of arrogance. He picked up the bottle on the coffee table and
poured
himself a glass of red wine. Philip smiled lightly and said, “I’m all ears.” Fred frowned and looked at Philip
before saying, “First, release all the people you’ve just arrested. They’re
my people and you have no right to detain them.” Philip thought about it and asked, “What’s the
second?” Fred chuckled as he stared at Philip coldly, saying, “Second, we’ll break your arms and legs.
Then, I’ll bring
you to see Milo Dunley and Homer Dunley so you can apologize to them.”
The First Heir – Chapter 1796
After saying this, Fred sneered. “Young man, things are complicated in Flower City. Do you, an outsider,
think you can cause such a commotion on someone else’s territory? Now that I’ve given you the
conditions, you only have ten minutes to consider.” After saying that, Fred raised his hand and made a
gesture. An underling behind him pulled out the long
dagger from his back and threw it on the floor. A clatter resounded throughout the private room. Upon
seeing this, Jowin was furious. He pointed at Fred and shouted, “Fred Able, are you not taking me
seriously? Do you think that you’re the only one who has brought people here?” As he said that, dozens
of vans and sedans swarmed toward the hotel that was already being surrounded by
Fred’s people. Thugs with baseball bats and long daggers jumped down from the cars, surrounding
Fred’s people!
Instantly, the situation around the hotel changed!
Two groups of people occupied two sides of the hotel, forming a confrontation!
As far as the eye could see, the entire area was full of people. It was a situation where these people
could
overwhelm the city at any time!
This scene made the onlookers exclaim in awe. “Holy sh*t! Isn’t this Master Benson’s people? They’re
going up against Fred Able’s people!”
“Who can tell me what’s going on? Isn‘t there a truce?”
“Hehe, don’t you know? I heard that a big shot came to Flower City to deal with Homer Dunley and his
son, but later, Milo Dunley stepped in and wanted to negotiate with the other party. The talk fell apart and
triggered
the current situation.” Someone with inside information said at this moment. This caused an uproar.
Many people began to talk about
Homer Dunley and his son, as well as Milo Dunley. The line of sight returned to Milo, Homer, and Hector
Dunley. Homer was pacing back and forth in the hall at this moment, his expression looking incredibly
anxious. Milo, on the other hand, was sitting leisurely on the sofa while sipping warm tea. He said,
“Homer, don’t
worry. With Fred’s help, this matter will be resolved soon. Although this kid is a little unusual, Fred’s
methods can still be trusted in Flower City. No matter how big a background he has, if he dies in Flower
City, we can still make it into an accident and leave no traces behind.” Homer shook his head and said a
little gloomily, “Milo, I can’t help feeling that things are not that simple this
time. Philip Clarke gives me a very unusual feeling. I just can’t calm down.” Hector, who was sitting at the
side, chuckled at this moment and said fearlessly, “Dad, I think you just got
scared by him. We don’t need to be afraid of Philip at all. With Fred’s help, this matter is already a done
deal
as Uncle Milo said. There’s no need to worry unnecessarily.” As soon as he said that, Homer turned
around and glared at Hector fiercely. He pointed at his nose and shouted, “It’s all because of you! Why
did you have to mess with others? Now, he has come to Flower City and kicked
up such a big fuss! After this matter is settled, I want you to go abroad to further your studies!” Hector
pursed his lips and wanted to say something.
However, a subordinate suddenly rushed in and shouted, “Master Milo, Chairman Dunley, there’s news
from
the hotel. Fred has led his people there but they’ve clashed with Jowin Benson’s people. Now, the entire
hotel
and the nearby area are packed with people!”
The First Heir – Chapter 1797
Hearing this, Homer was obviously agitated. His eyes widened as he asked, “What did you say? Jowin
Benson is there too?”
“Yes, Master Benson led his men and confronted Fred’s men at the ground floor of the hotel. The
situation at
the scene is very uncertain right now,” the underling said breathlessly. Homer’s expression crumbled
instantly. He clasped the back of his hands and turned to Milo as he said, “Milo, what do you think we
should do now? Jowin is really determined to help Philip. Did we make the wrong move?
If Jowin and Fred’s people really go up against each other, Flower City will definitely fall into a
catastrophe.” This was the last thing Homer wanted to see. If that was the case, the situation would be
out of control!
Milo’s expression was cold, and he frowned. He looked at the subordinate and asked, “Get the car ready.
Let’s
go there too. I want to see with my own eyes what means this Philip Clarke has!” After that, they quickly
left the villa and drove to the vicinity of the hotel. They did not get out of the car but sat inside, paying
close attention to the movement in front of the hotel. The
two groups of people were very distinct!
The atmosphere at the scene was really on the verge of breaking out!
Both groups of people were just waiting for orders. Homer seemed very anxious and asked Milo, “Milo,
why don’t we go down too? If we don’t control the
situation well and the people from the main family find out about this, we won’t have it easy either.”
The Dunley family was in charge of the entire Charbury. It was decentralized into seven regions and
each
region was managed by a branch of the Dunley family. If the balance in Flower City was broken because
of Homer, or an uncontrollable situation arose, Homer
would definitely be de
