The first heir novel (Master Yu Who Smokes)
Chapter 57

What was going on?

Why were they fighting?

The seniors were so shocked that they were speechless. Aiden himself was stunned for a very long time. He did not know what was going on.

"F*ck! Lamar Collins! Are you f*cking insane? Why the f*ck are you hitting me?"

Aiden was furious. His face had turned red. This was so embarrassing.

In the first second, he had been trying to flatter him. Now, Lamar was slapping him across the face.

When Martha saw that Aiden was slapped, she was enraged. She ran over and pushed Lamar. She yelled, "Are you insane? Why did you slap Aiden? If you don't give us an explanation now, we'll stand in fron of your office and call the cops on you!"

Lamar was livid. He pushed away Martha who was being rude and unreasonable. Then, he roared, "F*ck off! How dare this f*cker pretend to be Mr. Clarke? I went easy on him! I should skin him alive and pluck out all of his nerves!"

When he said that, Lamar glanced at Philip who was standing at one side.

Then, he ignored the seniors who were making a ruckus and walked to Philip. He smiled widely and bowed. He immediately apologized. "I'm sorry, Mr. Clarke. I was blind, so I got the wrong person. Are you alright? Should I punish that idiot for you?"

Lamar was talking about Aiden.

Everyone shut up when they saw this scene.

Mr. Clarke?

Lamar was insane!

He was apologizing to a coward and calling him mister. It was such an insult to call him that.

Aiden was livid. He felt that he had lost all respect. He yelled, "Collins, you're f*cking out of your mind! What the f*ck do you mean by Mr. Clarke? His name is Philip Clarke and he's just a cowardly delivery guy! Do you know what you just did? Do you know what you're doing right now?"

F*ck!

Aiden was vehement.

Lamar was a huge idiot. He was being so respectful to a coward.

Lamar turned his face and pulled on the collar of his suit. He said coldly, "I don't need you to tell me what to do. You're Aiden, right? Why did you pretend to be Mr. Clarke?"

Pretend?

Aiden was confused. He pointed at Philip and scoffed. "Why should I pretend to be that idiot? Can't you see the difference between me and him? He's just a piece of trash. Why should he have the rights to stand here?"

After he said that...

Lamar ran over to him and punched him in the face. His nose started bleeding profusely.

After that, the crowd went crazy.

"F*ck! Collins, you're a dead man! If you don't give me an explanation right now, I'll make you disappear from Riverdale!"

Aiden yelled loudly as he clutched his nose. Blood was seeping out from the space between his fingers.

Martha handed Aiden some tissues to stop the bleeding. Her heart hurt from seeing that. At the same time, she turned to Lamar and shrieked, "Call the police! Call the police now! Put this man in jail!" Lamar was furious. He swung his hand and was about to slap Martha across the face.

Martha's eyes went wide. Then, she closed her eyes from fear.

However...

A hand grabbed Lamar's suddenly. A voice said, "Mr. Collins, that's enough. She's my mother-in-law."

Who else could it be?

It must be Philip.

He could not watch this anymore.

Lamar's heart fell as he trembled vigorously. His entire body went cold.

F*ck!

She was Mr. Clark's mother-in-law!

No way. Why was his mother-in-law siding with an outsider?

Before he could think, Lamar bowed and apologized to Philip. "I'm sorry, Mr. Clarke. I... I had no idea."

When he said that, Lamar's voice changed. He sounded terrified.

Now, everyone understood.

Mr. Collins was scared of Philip.

Could it be that Philip was the one who helped them?

Everyone including Martha was puzzled. She was in a state of shock right now.

Since when did her cowardly son-in-law become so talented?

Philip only glanced at Lamar coldly before the latter apologized to Martha immediately. "Madam Yates, I am so sorry. I was too impulsive just now. I will return your money and house first. I'll even give you an interest of 300,000 bucks!"

Martha was angry, but when she heard the word 'money', she started breathing heavily as a smile blossomed on her face.

"Aw, what are you talking about, Mr. Collins? Are you really giving me an interest of 300,000 bucks?"

Martha was a money-grubber. She immediately ignored Aiden who was standing behind her when she heard Lamar talking about money. Plus, it was 300,000 bucks.

Lamar nodded and said, "Of course! You invested so much. Of course, you'll get something in return."

"Great! That's amazing! Can I have it now?" Martha was so happy that even her smile was crooked.

Before Lamar could answer, the seniors started making noises again.

"No way, Mr. Collins. We invested too! Do we get something in return as well?”

"Why is she the only one who'll get interest?"

"I was the first to invest in your company. Shouldn't you return my money first?"

Everyone was coming in strong. Lamar had no choice but to yell, "What are you doing? Madam Yates is Mr. Clarke's mother-in-law. I'm happy to return her money first and give her something in return. That's my business. Just wait at one side!"

Even though the crowd was not pleased, their anger was diminished slightly.

After all, the president was the one who decided if he wanted to return the money and house or not.

They did not dare to be so aggressive.

However, they started to hate Philip even more.

This was a trait shared by humans.

If they could not get something, they would hate and resent.
