The First Heir

Chapter 21

At Celestial Club! Why would Wynn go to such a place? Wasn’t she meeting a client? Philip did not have time to think. He dashed out of the gallery, his heart flaring up like a ball of flame. Please be safe. Please be!

Jasmine did not know what was going on but saw Philip running away in a hurry. Where was this guy hurrying off to?

Upon exiting Civil Gallery, Philip was about to hail a cab when a flashy red Porsche 911 stopped in front of him.

Anna appeared in a black trench coat. “Mr. Clarke, where are you rushing off to?”

Anna looked sideways, about to get out of the car when Philip pulled open the passenger seat and ordered in a hurry. “To Celestial Club!”

Anna did not ask more. She quickly started up the Porsche, like a red arrow being shot, the dust flew up into the air as the vehicle disappeared from Civil Gallery’s entrance.

This scene was coincidentally seen by Aiden, who was looking from the door. With hate in his eyes, he stared at the disappearing headlights, confused. Why is Philip with Anna? He’s just a piece of wretched trash. Shit! Could he be having an affair! Great! A frightening chill flashed in his eyes. He will tell Wynn about this, and the two of them would divorce! I’m just so brilliant!

In less than five minutes, Anna had brought Philip to the entrance of Celestial Club in her Porsche 911. This drew on a lot of attention from passersby. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Celestial Club was a famous entertainment club within the city. It was a mixture of good and evil inside —both the legal world and the underground mobs. The owner was Riverdale’s famous, Drogo Hanks,

widely known as ‘Brother Drogo’. Although he was not as renowned as Theo, he was still a prestigious man.

Drogo and Theo never interfered with each other’s business, and they both had their own business turfs.

Philip got out of the car.

The entrance of Celestial Club was not only occupied by beauties in tight dresses, but there were also two large men whose arms were more massive than their thighs. It was easy to tell that they were bouncers. They emitted a cold and frightening aura.

“Hey kid, where are you from? Can’t you see that we’re on break? Who are you to rush in? Beat it!” Seeing Philip about to dash in, a muscular man stretched out a hand to block him. His expression was fierce.

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes arrogantly at Philip, completely full of himself. Of course, this man also judged a book by its cover. If it were a prominent figure instead, he would have bowed and greeted with friendly eyes.

But unfortunately, it was Philip. This brat was only staple goods, so very ordinary. He was not worth respect.

Pressuring people with their authority had always been their forte. They would first show off their strength and let the troublemakers know that Celestial Club was not a place to cause a scene, and this would save them the hassle later. But it was clear that the bouncer did not know Philip’s identity. Hence, he was playing with fire.

Philip looked up slightly with cold eyes. “Make way!”

“F*ck! You’re pretty cocky, aren’t you? Asking me to make way?” The muscle man raged. He was staring at Philip with fire in his eyes as he blocked the way with his solid body. With just one arm, he could hold Philip up.

“That’s enough! Who allowed you to speak to Mr. Clarke that way?” Suddenly, Anna’s voice rang from the side. She had just parked the car away when she saw Philip in trouble. She immediately ran over in a panic.

When the two muscular men saw Anna walking over with an icy expression, they were stunned! In their line of work, no one could not recognize Anna Carter. She was Theo Zander’s confidante and his only confidante! A woman! Among the underground forces, she was a woman of status.

In an instant, the two muscular men put aside their arrogance.
