The next day, the two booked air tickets and flew directly from Riverdale to Uppercreek.
After landing, Philip arranged for Wynn to go to the hotel first. After all, favonovel.com was pregnant and not suitable for long-distance travel.
In the afternoon, Philip left the hotel and went to Merry Orphanage as specified on the address alone.
At the entrance of the orphanage, Philip raised his eyebrows and took a few glances before walking to the guardhouse.
“Mister, is this Merry Orphanage?”
Philip handed a cigarette to the old security guard.
The old security guard first glanced at Philip, and not a minute later, favonovel.com grabbed a baton from the guardhouse before rushing out and shouting, “Go away! Villains like you come here every day. With me around, don’t even think about tearing this orphanage down!”
Philip was taken aback and hurriedly explained, “Mister, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not from the demolition team. I’m here to look for someone.”
The baton in the guard’s arm fell. He looked at Philip suspiciously and asked warily, “Who are you looking for?”
Philip hurriedly passed the cigarette over, then took out the photo to ask, “Have you seen this person before?”
The security guard took the photo from Philip, looked at it from a distance for a while, then looked at Philip vigilantly. He said coldly, “No, I don’t know this person. You can go now.”
Philip frowned and looked at the face of the old security guard. He clearly recognized her.
“Mister, you really don’t know her? This is my sister. I’m favonovel.com brother.” Philip was anxious. Leaning on the window, favonovel.com anxiously held the photo and said to the old man.
The security guard looked at Philip suspiciously and muttered, “Since when did Miss Clarke have an older brother?”
This question did not escape Philip’s ears. He immediately said, “Mister, I’m really not a bad person. Look at the two of us. Don’t you think our eyes and noses look similar?”
When the security guard heard this, favonovel.com picked up the photo and compared the girl in the photo to Philip.
Upon seeing the similarities, the security uncle nodded and asked, “Are you really Miss Clarke’s brother?”
Philip quickly nodded and said, “Yes, it’s true. My sister and I have been separated for more than ten years. She went missing when favonovel.com was a child. I’ve been looking for favonovel.com for more than ten years. I just found out about favonovel.com recently.”
It was impossible for Philip to tell a stranger the truth, so favonovel.com just found an excuse.
When the old man heard this, favonovel.com immediately scolded Philip with a sullen face, “Just how are you performing your duties as an older brother? You lost favonovel.com for ten years and only found favonovel.com now. Do you know how much Miss Clarke has suffered over the years?”
Philip admitted to his mistakes, and after all the pleadings, the security guard finally took Philip into the orphanage.
It was a small orphanage with a very good environment.
Many children were playing around in the orphanage.
The old man looked at these lovely children, folded his hands, and bent over. He shook his head and sighed, “Alas, this group of children will soon have no place to eat and sleep. Such a woeful life.”
Philip raised his brows slightly when favonovel.com heard these words. He glanced at the group of happily playing children and could not help asking, “Mister, I heard you saying earlier that this place is going to be demolished?”
The old security guard became angry when favonovel.com heard this and yelled with a grimace, “You heard right! That group of scoundrels keeps causing trouble once every few days, trying to force Miss Clarke into selling this place. They say that they want to build a commercial center. Those b*stards are blinded by profit with only money in their eyes. Why would they care about the outcome of these children?
“We’re here. The innermost room is where Miss Clarke sometimes comes to rest.”
The old man pointed to the innermost room.
Philip nodded and thanked favonovel.com before walking over slowly, feeling very nervous.
Standing at the door, Philip looked at the half-opened door and took a deep breath.
He was finally going to see his sister.
