The First Heir

Chapter 69

Derrick was sitting in the middle of the meeting room. He looked at his staff and coughed. Then, he said, “I’m sure you’ve all heard of Mr. Zach’s dismissal. Don’t make random guesses. The reason he can’t stay as the general manager of the marketing department is because of his health. So, I’ve decided that Wynn should be the general manager of the marketing department of our company.”

After he said that, applause sounded in the meeting room.

Wynn was still spacing out. She was thinking about that mysterious man. She only came back to her senses when the person next to her poked her. She stood up hurriedly and said gratefully, “Thank you for trusting me, Mr. Hall. I’ll do my best.”

Mr. Hall had already told her about the promotion earlier on.

Wynn had already mentally prepared herself.

After the meeting was dismissed, Wynn went back to her office. After a while, Rose walked in angrily and shrieked unreasonably, “Wynn Johnston! Why? You vixen! You must have slept with him! If not, how did you become the general manager? That’s my position, you b*tch!”

Rose was angry. All her time and effort to flatter her way to the top had been for nothing.

Plus, she even lost her job now.

Human resources told her that she was fired.

The first thing she did was to barge into Wynn’s office to create a ruckus.

Wynn looked at her indifferently and said coldly, “Rose, don’t you know what you did? You have no right to tell me whether I deserve this position or not. Get out now!”

Wynn was extremely frustrated.

“Oh? Your tail is starting to show after you got promoted to general manager, huh? You b*tch! You’re a homewrecker!”

Rose did not care anymore. She started yelling and shrieking to make trouble for no reason. When she was pulled out from the office, she was still trying to create a ruckus in the office that was only a few hundred square feet. “Let me tell you all, Wynn Johnston is a b*tch! She sleeps with the clients whenever she goes out to talk business. She’s a gigantic wh*re!

“Ah! Let go of me! Let go!”

“Wynn! Just you wait! I’ll never forgive you!”

Wynn grabbed her bag and took a bus to Celestial Club after Rose was dragged out.

She wanted to know who that mysterious person was.

However, when she got to Celestial Club, she found that it had been demolished.

There were a few bulldozers at the scene. Some workers were going on about their jobs.

“Hello, can I help you?”

Wynn turned around and saw a tall and sexy woman strutting over to her.

She was perfect. She had the perfect body and her skin was flawless. From her smile, one could tell that she was a kind, respectful, and stylish woman.

It was Anna.

“Miss Johnston, why are you here?” When Anna saw Wynn’s face, she asked curiously.

Wynn was shocked. That woman knew her.

“Do you know me?” Wynn asked.

“Of course, Miss Johnston. My boss told us specifically to take good care of you.” Anna smiled, her eyes turning into little crescents. She looked like she had been kissed by the spring breeze.

Wynn’s heart trembled when she asked, “Is it the boss who saved me that night?”

Anna smiled and nodded. “Miss Johnston, you’re hilarious. Do you not know our boss?”

Anna was curious. Were she and Mr. Clarke not married to each other?

Wynn smiled. How would she know that person? She never even saw what they looked like.

“Um, can you give me your boss’ number? I want to thank him in person,” Wynn stammered.

Anna pressed her lips together. She was puzzled. However, she still agreed. “Of course.”

After she said that, she took out her phone and found Mr. Clarke’s number.

Wynn looked over and saw that it was an unknown number. However, the last four digits of the number made her eyes brighten. 0513! It was her birthday!

Was it a coincidence?

After hesitating, Wynn called the number. She was extremely nervous.

“I walked past your world and I’ve lived through it when it was in full bloom. Please go forward and don’t turn back. I’ll be the one waiting for you at the end.”

The ringtone!

It was her favorite song.

Plus, it was the song Philip sang to her when he proposed to her.

Was it another coincidence?

Wynn started to feel nervous all of a sudden. She kept seeing Philip’s face in her brain.

Was it him?

At the same time, Philip was standing at the entrance of Arc de Triumph Hotel. Suddenly, his phone rang.

He touched his pocket and took out a phone. No, it was not this one.

It was the other one.

He took it out again and looked at the caller ID. ‘Honey.’

Suddenly, Philip was stunned. His eyes grew big.

How was this possible?

She had never called this number before!

He only saved her number in his contact list.

He never mentioned this number to Wynn before.

Plus, he only told this number to three people—George, Theo, and Anna.

The people who knew this number were the ones who knew about his identity!

How did Wynn find out about this number?

Was his identity exposed?
