The First Heir

Chapter 212

Philip was feeling helpless, but eventually, he still got in.

In a blink of an eye, the two of them arrived at Arc de Triumph.

Tiger parked the car in the parking lot, and Philip got out. After a few steps, he ran into Joshua.

He and Yolanda had gotten there first.

When Joshua saw that Philip was here, he was curious. His Audi R8 was not slow. The rest were not here yet but Philip was already here?

“Hey, Philip. I didn’t think you would manage to get a cab that quickly. Did you take a shortcut?”

Joshua smiled mockingly. At the same time, he looked behind Philip.

A pink Porsche 911. It seemed that Philip had gotten out of that car just now.

Was it possible?

He must be seeing things

Yolanda chimed in and said sarcastically, “You ran over here, didn’t you? He was the champion of the 5,000-meter run back then.”

Joshua chuckled.

Philip did not say anything.

The two of them turned around and walked in.

Tiger ran over a short while later. He said something to Philip before turning around to leave.

At the same time, the rest of Philip’s classmates arrived.

“Philip? You got here first?” A few people asked curiously when they saw Philip standing by the door.

This guy did not have a car, though. How did he manage to get here faster than the ones with cars?

How weird!

Philip chuckled and said, “The driver took a shortcut.”

When they heard that, they understood.

Sadie could not control herself and said, “What driver? You just called a cab. You’re even calling the DiDi driver your driver now? Will you die if you stop being ostentatious?”

Sadie was no longer trying to curry favors with Philip as she was before.

When she was in the car, she heard that Philip was a complete loser.

What company? It was all fake!

It must be fake.

Sadie told this to some other people and they all agreed that Philip did not want to humiliate himself in front of Yolanda, so he purposely made up a lie.

They all shook their heads and laughed in disdain. Then, they turned their heads and left.

Philip just smiled. This gathering was so boring.

They were all just trying to feel superior.

In a few seconds, they were all sitting in the private room.

Arc de Triumph was an expensive and famous hotel.

The people who could afford to sit here were all rich people.

A lot of Philip’s old classmates had never come here before. This time, they were all looking around with awe on their faces.

On any normal occasion, everyone would sit randomly during a gathering. However, today was different.

Everyone was cautious and kept on flattering Joshua so that he would sit on the main seat. It was only after he sat down did everyone finally dare to take a seat.

Philip had been forgotten a long time ago. He found a random spot and sat down there.

No one said anything. After all, they understood.

No one would want to flatter a person with no status like Philip.

After he sat down, Joshua snapped his finger and called the server over. He said, “Three bottles of Romanee-Contis and two bottles of Maotai.”

In a blink of an eye, the server came over with the alcohol.

“Wow! Romanee-Conti! A bottle of this costs 10,000 bucks!”

“Holy moly! You’re amazing, Mr. McAdams! You can indeed be imposing when you’re rich!”

“I don’t care! I want to work with Mr. McAdams in the future!”

The crowd was excited, and their gazes were heated.

Joshua smiled and shook his hand. He said, “It’s nothing, really. It’s just a few bottles of alcohol. You guys should know that as someone with their own business, we have to know something about alcohol because we need to have dealings with clients. 10,000 bucks for Romanee-Conti is nothing.”

When Yolanda heard this, her eyes went wide. Joshua had feelings for her back then.

During their university days, she was young and did not understand men, so she rejected him.

Today, she was feeling extremely remorseful. She was thinking of ways to claim relations with Joshua. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Subconsciously, she looked at Philip. The differences between them were too huge.

Suddenly, she remembered Philip saying that he had his own company as well. However, Yolanda did not think that it was true. She started to look down on Philip even more.

At the same time, the door of the room was opened.

Zayn walked in holding a few bottles of top-tier alcohol in his hands. He smiled and said, “Everyone, I’m the manager of this restaurant, and this is the latest red wine we have. They are from Château Pétrus.”

Everyone was shocked. They did not understand what was going on.

Joshua jumped up from shock. He knew about the red wine from Château Pétrus. One bottle would cost more than 10,000 bucks. It was about the same level as Romanee-Conti.

However, he did not order these!

Even if Joshua was rich, he would not waste his money like this.

“I’m sorry, we didn’t order these,” Joshua said with a smile.

Carl, who was sitting next to him, started explaining to everyone.

The crowd knew immediately that one bottle of this wine cost more than 10,000 bucks!

“Oh, these are gifts from us.” Zayn smiled. His eyes landed on Philip secretly as he nodded slightly.

Everyone was stunned.

Gifts?

Holy moly!

Was Joshua such an important person?

The manager of Arc de Triumph was gifting them wine himself!

However, Joshua did not think this was the case. His face fell as he frowned. He did not know this Mr. Yeager.

“Excuse me, Mr. Yeager, why are you giving us wine?” Joshua asked.

Zayn peered at Philip and smiled. He said, “It’s because of Mr…”
