The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Chapter 2654

The head of the family who took the lead saw Philip‘s icy eyes at this moment and trembled.

He suppressed the panic in his heart and said, “Y-Yes. Why should we believe that you’re Mr. Clarke just

because you said so? None of us have seen Mr. Clarke before. What if you’re an impostor? Besides,

would Mr. Clarke be a young kid like you? Let the real Mr. Clarke come out. The heads of the families in

Beechwood City are not that easy to fool.”

After the man finished speaking, the other heads of families also echoed.

“That’s right! Tell Mr. Clarke to come out. Since we were invited here, why bother to hide?”

“Does Mr. Clarke look down on us and want to intimidate us? In that case, why should he find such a

young kid to take his place?”

“Hmph, if Mr. Clarke refuses to see us, why bother with this banquet? Let’s go!”

After saying that, a few people took the lead and turned around to leave. However, when they reached

the door, several fully armed guards there showed no signs of opening the door at all.

“Why are you standing there? Open the door!”

A family head in his 40s with a hooked nose, also the one who took the lead earlier, said sternly.

However, the guards at the door stood motionless on the spot.

“Damn it!” The hook-nosed family head cursed and was about to open the door himself!

However, suddenly, the guns in the hands of the guards were placed on the head of the hook-nosed

family head. The guards said coldly, “Under Mr. Clarke’s order, no one is allowed to leave without his

permission. Those who leave without permission will be killed without mercy!”

Hearing this, all family heads in the hall were dumbfounded.

The hook-nosed family head was even more furious. He pointed at the guards angrily and shouted,

“Outrageous! Let’s see who dares to fire at me! I’m the head of the Farley family in Beechwood City!”

After yelling, he glared at Philip and shouted, “Tell them to open the door!”

The other family heads who followed the hooked-nose family head also roared. “Open the door! This is

Beechwood City!”

“This is ridiculous! Is he trying to get rid of us in one fell swoop?!”

After cursing, Patriarch Farley shoved the guards away, grabbed the door handle, and was about to open

the door. However, Philip was indifferent. With his hands in his trouser pockets, he said lightly, “You’re

disrespecting me…”

With that said, one of the guards raised his gun.

Bang!

A gunshot resounded throughout the hall. The bullet penetrated right through Patriarch Farley’s head!

Until his death, Patriarch Farley had no idea why he died. His eyes rolled over, and he fell into a pool of

blood on the floor with his eyes wide open.

Seeing this scene, the other family heads who followed behind Patriarch Farley panicked!

“H-He really fired!”

This was the head of the Farley family in Beechwood City! Was he killed just like that?

For a moment, the entire hall was dead silent. No one dared to speak or breathe loudly!

This was terrifying!

Everyone looked at Patriarch Farley who died a tragic death in a pool of blood and felt as if a huge

boulder was weighing heavily on their hearts.

At this moment, Philip calmly stepped forward and said, “Excuse me, everyone. I have a bad habit, and I

ask everyone not to disobey my orders. Since I’ve gathered everyone together, I want to talk to everyone

in a harmonious environment. As for such bloodshed, it was completely an accident.”

An accident?

All the family heads sweated profusely. He was making an example!

Was this young man really that Mr. Clarke?!

At this moment, at the main table, Ernest’s and Cyril’s expressions looked very ugly. That was because

Philip had killed a family head in Beechwood City right in front of them! It was an act of intimidation!

Ernest angrily squeezed the teacup in his hand, which shattered immediately. He was just about to slap

the table in anger and stand up when Cyril quickly grabbed him and said, “Villa Master Turner, Patriarch

Farley’s death is no big deal. We must stay calm and see what Mr. Clarke wants to do next.”

Ernest snorted, his eyes full of anger!

On this side, Patriarch Farley’s body was quickly taken care of.

The other family heads looked at each other in a panic and dared not say anything. The other party was

too strong. One move was enough to overwhelm them. Even the family heads who made a fuss just now

kept their mouths shut now.

Philip glanced at them indifferently and asked, “Do any of you still doubt my identity?”

Hearing Philip’s question, the few family heads were afraid that the other party would make a move

against them, so they quickly shook their heads and said with fake smiles, “No, we don’t doubt your

identity at all. We were just misled by Patriarch Farley just now.”

Seeing these cowardly old fellows, Philip could not be bothered with them. He snorted coldly and walked

to the main table. Fennel and Leon followed closely behind him.

At the sight of Leon Jefferson, the faces of the family heads went cold.

Sure enough, Villa Master Turner was right. Leon had already reached untold cooperation with Mr.

Clarke.

Philip walked to the main table. Cyril quickly got up and introduced, “Hello, Mr. Clarke, this is the master

of Terrain Villa, Villa Master Ernest Turner.”

Philip stopped and looked at Ernest, who was still seated. He said with a smile, “Villa Master Turner, nice

to meet you.”

Ernest was still angry at the moment. Seeing Cyril who kept winking at him, he stood up, shook hands

with Philip, and said, “Mr. Clarke, how do you do?”

Then, he sat down again. Obviously, he was brooding over the fact that Philip had just killed Patriarch

Farley in front of him. After all, killing a family head in his territory was no different than slapping him in

the face!

Philip was unperturbed. He chuckled and took his seat. Leon and Fennel followed suit.

Seeing Leon sitting down, the anger on Ernest’s face became even more obvious like a surging ocean

wave. He said coldly, “Leon, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect you to get a head start.”

Leon chuckled and said, “Villa Master Turner, you’ve misunderstood. I got to know Mr. Clarke earlier by

chance, and I’m here tonight as an observer.”

“Hehe, an observer? Well said. If you hadn’t instigated this, would Mr. Clarke be so merciless as to kill a

Northern disciple family head in front of me?”

Ernest could not hold back and questioned coldly.

Philip smiled and said, “Villa Master Turner, you may have misunderstood. I didn’t do this on purpose. In

fact, my objective is very simple, which is to take down all the family heads in this hall. What do you

think?”
