The First Heir

Chapter 193

An investment of one billion bucks!

All of the Yates’ assets were just worth 700 to 800 million bucks!

Adding in Bob’s own company with Samson and Ted’s company, they only had a little over a billion!

This investment of one billion bucks came out of nowhere!

How would he not be excited?

Bob stood up excitedly and widened his eyes. He asked while gasping for air, “What… What did you say? Say it again!”

“Old Master, we got an investment of one billion dollars!” the middle-aged man finally wiped his sweat and said with the same excitement.

In an instant, Bob’s face turned red. He lifted his head and guffawed at the sky. “Wonderful! The Yates family is finally going to enter high society! An investment of one billion dollars! Go and find out who was the one who invested in us. We have to invite them here and take good care of them!”

This person must be an extremely rich billionaire.

He had to treat him with respect.

Bob was ready to invite them here himself.

The middle-aged man replied, “It’s an angel investor. He goes by the name of Mr. Clarke. Old Master, do you know anyone with Clarke as his last name?”

The middle-aged man was puzzled. He had stayed with Bob for more than ten years. He knew most of the people Bob interacted with, but there was no one with Clarke as their last name

There were not a lot of entrepreneurs or powerful people with Clarke as their last name in Riverdale.

Bob was taken aback. He could not hide his happiness, but at the same time, he was frowning.

He did not know any Clarkes who was that rich.

Bob looked at everyone in the room and asked, “Do any of you know this Mr. Clarke? Stop hiding if you do. He invested so much money, we have to go visit him.”

In the end, after looking around…

Everyone shook their heads in confusion.

“Dad, I don’t know any Mr. Clarkes.”

“Me neither.”

In an instant, everyone was stumped.

No one knew any Mr. Clarkes, so who was this Mr. Clarke?

Immediately, the news spread around the party.

“Damn! Did you guys hear what happened? Some rich guy named Clarke invested one billion dollars into the Yates’ business!”

“What? One billion dollars?”

“Which Mr. Clarke? He’s so rich! I want him as my father.”

In a blink of an eye, the entire center court and outer courtyard were starting to talk about this.

Mr. Clarke’s name was like the wind. It blew all over the Yates’ courtyard.

Almost everyone at the party now knew that a billionaire named Clarke invested one billion dollars into the Yates’ business.

What a huge amount!

Everyone could not describe their shock.

The Yates family was going to be famous today!

Four simultaneous happy events happened in the family today.

Philip sat on his seat and frowned.

Why did that feel like something Buffer would do?

Just as he thought about it, he got a message on his other phone. He opened it and saw that it was indeed from Buffer. It said, ‘Dear Master Philip, it’s done. I invested one billion dollars into your wife’s grandfather’s business.’

It was Buffy!

Philip was feeling helpless. Buffy was too kind.

After pondering for a while, Philip replied, ‘Okay.’

Since Buffy had already invested the money, what else could he do? He did not need the one billion anyway, so he would just treat it as a gift.

When Wynn heard the news, she glued her eyes on Philip.

Was it him?

Maybe not.

Wynn got rid of that thought quickly. It was an investment of one billion dollars! Even if Philip’s parents owned Northern Sky Western Restaurant, they would not have so much money for investments.

Bob was extremely excited. He and his children followed the middle-aged man from the hall to the center court. Then, they walked past the outer courtyard to see who this Mr. Clarke was.

Eric walked past Philip coincidentally. He said sarcastically, “Hey, Grandpa, is this the Mr. Clarke you’re looking for?”

It was obvious that Eric did that on purpose.

Philip was just a coward. It would be a feat if he could take out 10,000 bucks.

One billion?

No way!

When Aaron heard that, he laughed in disdain and said, “Haha! Eric, this Mr. Clarke is not that Mr. Clarke. It’s obvious that he gets his meals from the dumpster.”

Hahahaha!

Everyone started laughing when they heard that.

Martha followed behind everyone with her face crestfallen. She did not want to say anything. She just did not want to bother herself with this matter right now. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Philip would be the one feeling embarrassed.

She did not want to get involved in this.

After hearing Eric’s ominous laughter, Ted could not hold in his laughter anymore.
