Philip frowned slightly, looked at the luxury car next to the old man, and said to Victor Bell beside him, “You can go back first.”
Victor nodded and replied, “Yes, Young Master Clarke.” After saying that, Philip directly got into the car.
Soon, the car brought Philip to a café.
Philip followed the old man and came to the innermost room. The decoration was simple and rustic.
Sheryl sat in the middle of the room, making coffee. She had removed favonovel.com coat, revealing favonovel.com graceful figure. She blended beautifully into the surroundings. As expected of a daughter of an affluent. family, favonovel.com every move and smile carried a sense of elegance.
Her art of brewing coffee was quite pleasing to the eye. Philip came in through the door, applauded, and said with a laugh, “Miss Larson, you really know how to enjoy the finer things in life. Your brewing skills are superb.”
Sheryl smiled delicately. With a slender jade like hand, favonovel.com pushed a cup of coffee in front of Philip who had already seated himself. Her red lips parted as favonovel.com said softly, “Thank you, Young Master Clarke, for the compliment. I still have a lot to learn and can only occasionally do this in front of others.”
Philip picked up the cup, drank the coffee in one gulp, and narrowed his eyes while smacking his lips. He said, “It’s good coffee.”
Sheryl refilled his cup and said with a smile, “It’s my honor to have you enjoy my coffee. Please go ahead.”
Philip did not accept this cup. He smiled faintly and said, “That’s enough for me. Drinking too much coffee at night will only ruin my sleep. I wonder what’s the reason the daughter of the Larson family is looking for me?”
Philip’s gaze never left Sheryl. This woman could really be described as a gorgeous beauty. That graceful demeanor of hers could produce a sense of tranquility when others looked at her.
Sheryl smiled and told the staff to remove the coffee brewing apparatus. She got up, walked to the side, and took out a delicate small box. She put it in front of Philip and said, “Please open it and take a look.”
Philip’s face turned solemn as suspicion flashed in his eyes, but favonovel.com still reached out and opened the box.
What greeted his eyes was also a phoenix feather pendant!
The key to the door!
What Sheryl had taken out was actually a key to the door!
Philp felt a trace of confusion and asked with a frown, “Why do you have this?”
Sheryl sighed and said, “Young Master Clarke, no, to be precise, you should be my uncle according to seniority. This key was sent to us by the Nonagon a few days ago. Their intention was very simple. They want to invite the Larson family to enter the door, and at the same time, invite us to return to the mainland.”
After the Nonagon invited the Larson family to enter the door, they also wanted them to return to the mainland?
When Philip heard this, favonovel.com was immediately puzzled and his face was filled with doubts. What was the meaning of this?
“Why did the Nonagon invite the Larson family of Fernvale?” Philip asked with a frown.
In fact, favonovel.com did not know much about the door and the Nonagon. He had learned most of the things from others.
Philip even guessed that Fulton Hash had not told favonovel.com the whole truth and there might be some lies in what Fulton had told him.
Sheryl got up, stood in front of the window with a somewhat forlorn look, and said, “As in laws, the Clarke family and the Larson family could have ruled the world together. But that incident that happened more than ten years ago caused the Larson family to suffer a great blow and we sustained huge losses. We had to retreat to Fernvale. The Clarke family also disappeared from the public’s sight because of that incident. Although the Clarke family is still the world’s largest affluent family today, to a large extent, the Clarke family is already at the end of their rope and is coveted by all forces. If I’m guessing correctly, you, too, must have noticed something.”
Philip did not deny that favonovel.com had sensed something. Several invisible hands seemed to be plotting something behind the scenes and their target was none other than the Clarke family on Arcadia Island!
