The First Heir – Chapter 1572
The news?
Webster was still baffled when Philip had already switched on the video application on his phone. He
tuned in to the news channel.
“Urgent broadcast! Loyale Group has been exposed to be involved in corruption, exchange of benefits,
and huge tax evasion. It’s currently being investigated by authorities!”
When this news was broadcasted, Webster felt his head heating up with a surge of blood.
He staggered a few steps back and fell to the ground, his breathing turning rapid.

How could this happen?
Webster had dealt with these problems a long time ago, so why were they being exposed now?
Immediately after…
“From the latest news received, Loyale Group’s largest shareholder, Webster Shaw, has been suspected
of gray transactions and will be investigated. Currently, Loyale Group and Mr. Shaw’s private villa have
been cordoned off.”

Boom!
Webster was so scared that his legs went weak and he slumped on the ground in a daze.

Impossible!
This was absolutely impossible!
He was Webster Shaw. He had taken care of everything for so many years, so how could he…
As he thought of it….
He immediately dialed a number. It rang for a long time before the call was connected. He yelled
anxiously, “Mr. Waters, what’s going on? Why am I-”
However, before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise on the other end of the phone. “Grover
Waters, you’re being suspected of inappropriate benefit transfer. Come with us!”
Plop!

The phone fell to the ground!
Webster’s face was already ashen!
It was over!
He was completely ruined!
His escape route was gone!
Immediately after, loud sirens could be heard in the surrounding streets.
Webster did not want to be taken away just like that. He was so scared that he knelt down in front of
Philip, bowing and begging for mercy, “Mr. Clarke, please let me go. I’m too old to be sent to jail. If I go in
now, I’m sure to die.”
However, Philip looked at Webster indifferently and said, “I never wanted to do anything to you, but you
had to stand up for Douglas Poole. This is your just desserts!”
Boom!
This was like a royal decree that sentenced Webster to his death!
On the other hand, Douglas was already drenched in sweat. He abruptly got up from the ground and was
about to run away!
However!
Bam!
A combatant in black combat uniform kicked Douglas to the ground and said, “Don’t move!”
Douglas was scared out of his wits.
Philip walked over, and he crawled to Philip’s feet, bowing and begging for mercy, “Mr. Clarke, I was
wrong. I got confused for a moment. I shouldn’t have been greedy for money. It’s all my fault!”
As he said that, he kept slapping his mouth.
Philip looked at Douglas indifferently with eyes full of chills as he shouted, “Why did you do this?”
“Martin Johnston and Bernard Johnston were the ones who made me do this. They said that as long as I
kidnap you today and record the video, they can threaten Wynn to sign the documents and take all her
shares. I’d also get five lots.”
Under tremendous pressure, Douglas revealed everything in one go.

Hearing this, Philip was enraged!
Martin Johnston and Bernard Johnston must be tired of living!
After knowing the situation, Philip did not want to dwell on the matter anymore and ordered Theo, “I don’t
want to see any of them again. Clean this up!”
“Yes, Mr. Clarke,” Theo respectfully replied.
In First Palace, Martin was pacing back and forth anxiously.
At this time, Bernard rushed in and shouted, “Martin, it’s bad. Something has happened!”
“What’s wrong? Have they caught him?” Martin was very anxious.
Bernard took a breath and said, “Douglas lost and was arrested!”
“What? Douglas was arrested?” Martin panicked as cold sweat beaded his forehead.
“What about Uncle Webster? What about Webster Shaw?” Martin asked again nervously. “Didn’t he step
forward?”
Bernard replied, “Yes, he did, but even Webster Shaw has been arrested! We’re in trouble!”
Hearing this, Martin staggered and fell on the sofa. He said incredulously, “How could this be? Webster
has been arrested too? What about Philip? Where is be?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, a cold shout suddenly came from the direction of the door.
“Looking for me? I came uninvited!”
Philip suddenly appeared at the front entrance of the villa. There was an army of fully armed combatants
behind him!
