Chapter 2220

There was an old man with a walking cane whose face was cold and weather-beaten. An imposing
man stood next to him like a battle god who supported the sky.

The two stood there like relics. They were none other than the patriarch of the Clarke family, Roger
Clarke, and the first battle god, Fulton Hash.

The moment they saw Roger standing in the memorial hall, all Clarke family members climbed up the
steps and knelt on the small square that was about 1,000 square feet in front of the memorial hall.

“Greetings to the patriarch.”

At this moment, no one dared to act recklessly and everyone knelt on the ground respectfully. They
bowed their heads in submission.

He was the Clarke family’s patriarch, after all. In a place like the ancestral memorial hall, if anyone
dared to act rashly, not to mention Roger but even the grand elder would tear them apart. Roger stood
in place and looked at the people kneeling. He said softly, “All rise.”

Then, he looked at Philip and beckoned, “Phil, come here and stand next to me. Wynn and the kids
too.”

Philip frowned, but he still took Wynn and Mila to stand next to Roger while Nelson was pushed by the
servants.

This scene naturally made the people of the branch family who were standing below very unhappy. It
was just in the name of the main family’s heir. What right did they have to stand there?

Wade was also very upset.

He never expected Roger to be waiting in the memorial hall so early.



Then, Roger said solemnly, “There are two matters on the agenda for today’s ancestor commemoration
ceremony. Firstly, my son Philip has returned to Arcadia Island to officially inherit the Clarke family. In
the future, all businesses of the Clarke family and other things will be handed to him. Secondly, my
daughter-in-law will officially enter the Clarke family’s register and be respected as the young madam
of the Clarke family. Anyone with a different opinion may state them now.”

With that said, Roger glanced at the grand elder.

The grand elder took a decree from the tray held by the servant, raised it above his head, and shouted,
“In the name of the ancestral etiquette, the heir has been decided and shall be appointed as the young
lord. Those who disagree may speak now.”

“I disagree!”

Abruptly, Wade stepped forward with a face full of chills. He raised his hand, pointed at Philip, and said
angrily, “This child is disrespectful to the branch family and has hurt many members of my branch
family. He’s definitely not a candidate to be the young lord. I disagree! The branch family disagrees!”

With that said, several elders of the branch family also stood out, pointed at Philip, and chided, “I
disagree too! Patriarch, Philip is too audacious and arrogant! Not only did he injure the eldest young
master of the branch family but he also hurt the sixth elder on the ancestor commemoration day. Such
an arrogant person must never become the future head of the Clarke family!”

“That’s right! Philip has never taken the Clarke family rules seriously and is disrespectful to the branch
family. We disagree!”

“Make someone else the young lord! This boy is not capable of taking up the responsibility!”

For a while, the people of the branch family were agitated and jumped out to accuse Philip.



Roger watched this in silence before a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He turned to
Morrow and asked, “Uncle Morrow, do you have any objections?”

Morrow had not spoken. After being questioned by Roger, he pretended to be suddenly alert and
glanced at the excited branch family members. He covered his mouth and coughed a few times. Then,
he walked out and said, “Patriarch, since everyone in my branch family disagrees, it’s indeed time to
reconsider the matter of the heir.”

Roger smiled, nodded, and said, “Since Uncle Morrow has said so, it’s time to reconsider.”

After saying that, Roger turned to Philip and asked, “What do you have to say to defend yourself?”

Philip laughed coldly and stepped out. Facing the branch family members who were constantly
accusing and berating him, he shouted, “A bunch of old fogeys with wild ambitions! Men, bring over
Allen Clarke!”
