The First Heir

Chapter 186

Martha also panicked, especially when she saw Philip’s furious expression just now.

‘What’s with this wimp’s change of attitude recently? He even dared to talk back to me a couple of times.’

Eric was beyond joyful. He had not fully pulled out his bag of tricks and the Johnston family already started fighting among themselves.

It seemed that Martha really disliked Philip. He could take advantage of this.

Martha glared at Philip, pulled Charles, and went into the compound.

Samantha was long gone. She was by Paula’s side. Her eyebrows were twitching as she observed this slapstick coldly.

‘Wynn, oh Wynn, you have such a sad life. You married a good-for-nothing.’

Samantha muttered a few words in her heart and was about to turn around and go in.

However, when Wynn led Philip to enter, Eric stopped them again.

“Wynn, as I said just now, Philip is not worthy of entering the door of the Yates family!” Eric’s nostrils were tilted upward. He looked very arrogant.

In his eyes, Philip was trash, and the Yates family did not welcome such a useless bum.

Aaron also stood at the door to block them.

Wynn frowned, her face quickly becoming chilly. She said, “Eric, Aaron, I am your cousin. Give way to me!”

Wynn was really angry.

She did not expect Eric and Aaron to act as such. They had absolutely no respect for her.

However, Eric and Aaron did not budge at all. They stared at Philip provocatively and said, “Philip, if you don’t want Wynn to be kicked out of the Yates family, leave by yourself now. No one here welcomes you.”

The corners of Philip’s mouth curled up as he displayed an indifferent smile. Jess, who had been watching by the side, walked over and pushed Eric and Aaron out of the way. She said coldly, “What are you two doing? Aren’t you afraid that Grandfather will scold you? The celebration is about to begin. Are you trying to make the whole Yates family know that this is how we treat the granddaughter and grandson-in-law?”

Eric and Aaron frowned, glanced at Jess, then stared at Philip angrily. They smiled threateningly and said, “Philip, we’ll wait and see. There will be a good show coming up in a while. I hope you don’t run away halfway through it.”

After that, the two turned around and went in.

Wynn said gratefully, “Jess, thank you.”

Jess glanced at Wynn indifferently, especially after holding her gaze on Philip for a few more seconds. She said coldly, “Philip, if you don’t want Wynn to lose face, I advise you to go in and greet everyone. Leave after that.”

After that, Jess turned around and flicked her hair. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Philip was startled. He wanted to say a few words to thank her, but he did not expect that he was still looked down on by her.

He and Wynn looked at each other. The latter said worriedly, “Philip, are you really okay? I… I’m worried…”

Philip shook his head and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, Wynnie. It’s okay, trust me.”

After that, the two of them entered the Yates Courtyard.

In the Yates Courtyard, rows and rows of banquet tables had already been set up.

Of course, it was divided into a distinct pecking order.

The highest order was in the inner hall. The people there would be sitting with Bob Yates. The main seat was still empty as Bob Yates had not come yet.

The inner hall could only be entered by Bob Yates’ children and those so-called Yates family connections.

Then, there was the nave below the inner hall. There were four tables set up, all of which were for the relatives of Bob Yates to celebrate his birthday.

The lowest class was naturally the outer hall, where six tables were set up. They were people present for the sole purpose of having dinner.

“Wow, check that out. It’s Ted Yates, Peter Yates’ eldest son!”

Everyone saw a handsome young man stepping into the courtyard and walking into the inner hall.

At that time, even the elders and big shots who were already seated in the inner hall focused their attention on the young man!

“Ted Yates of the Yates family, the most outstanding junior in the Yates family!”

In the entire courtyard, many people had their attention on Ted. Philip’s brows were also slightly furrowed.

The Yates family could be regarded as a powerful family in Riverdale, especially Bob Yates who had a lot of connections.

Ted Yates, as the eldest son of Peter Yates and the eldest son of the Yates family, naturally received a lot of attention and love.

Ted Yates did not let everyone down either. He started his own company at a young age and successfully went public. Now, he was worth two to three billion dollars!

It could be said that Bob Yates liked Ted very much, and he even planned to train Ted to be the third- generation successor.

After Eric and Aaron saw Ted step into the inner hall, their faces were dark and cold. They drank their cup of tea angrily.

They were at odds with Ted, and the Yates family members knew it.

Eric felt uncomfortable. He noticed Philip who was sitting by the door in the outer courtyard. He had a plan in his heart and walked over with Aaron.
