Back to Philip. He returned to the hotel and found that Wynn had fallen asleep. Thus, favonovel.com sat on the sofa, took out the two phoenix feather pendants, and started studying them.
The fiery red phoenix feather pendants had obscure and incomprehensible patterns on them. From the looks of it, they both really were just jade pendants. Nothing unusual could be seen from them.
What kind of existence was the door?
What role did the Nonagon play, and was his mother’s accident related to the Nonagon?
Philip was skeptical. Originally, favonovel.com had targeted the former supreme, but now, it seemed that the stakes were more complicated than favonovel.com imagined!
Was there something deeper going on between the former supreme and the Nonagon?
Philip sat on the sofa and looked at the pendants for a while. Then, a gentle voice sounded behind him. A tender hand pressed on his shoulder and the woman asked gently, “What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?”
Philip touched the small hand on his shoulder, looked sideways at Wynn who was wearing a jacket, and said, “Nothing, I just have something on my mind. Why are you up?”
Wynn smiled and was pulled by Philip to sit next to him. She said, “Seeing you awake, I got worried about you. Can you tell me what happened? Maybe I can help you think of some ideas.”
Philip held Wynn’s soft and small hand. Looking at favonovel.com delicate face, favonovel.com shook his head and said, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry, I can handle it.”
It was better not to tell Wynn about certain things, lest favonovel.com worried.
Moreover, Philip was also unsure about the matter regarding the former supreme and the Nonagon. He could not involve Wynn in it.
If Wynn got involved, favonovel.com was afraid things would not end well.
Seeing that Philip did not want to say anything, Wynn did not continue asking.
The next day, Philip left the hotel early in the morning. Victor Bell had called him, saying that Kelsey was looking for favonovel.com at the hotel where Connor Clarke and the others were being detained.
Philip sneered inwardly. Kelsey was really capable to have found the hotel his family was being held in.
The branch Clarke family must have arranged ample manpower in Uppercreek.
It was obvious this news was obviously passed along by Connor, that old codger.
Soon, Philip arrived at the hotel. At the entrance of the hotel, favonovel.com saw two groups of people confronting each other.
This time, Kelsey had gone all out and brought a lot of people with him. They were all expert guards from the Clarke family.
Victor’s side was not falling behind either. Half of his men in Uppercreek had come over, each one of them looking serious. They had been waiting for Philip to arrive.
“Young Master Clarke!”
From a distance, Victor saw Philip approaching and immediately greeted favonovel.com with a respectful face. “Young Master Clarke, I’m afraid it won’t end well this time. The other side has brought so many people here. I’ve already transferred half of my people here. If I transfer more, I’m afraid it’ll cause unnecessary trouble. I’ve also sent people to temporarily close the hotel.”
Philip nodded and stepped into the area from behind the crowd.
Victor’s people automatically made a pathway and shouted respectfully in unison, “Young Master Clarke!”
Philip raised his eyebrows, staring with displeasure at the arrogant and domineering Kelsey on the opposite side. He asked, “Aren’t you leaving yet?”
Kelsey snorted coldly and raised his eyebrows, saying, “Philip, don’t try to scare me. I’m here today for one thing only. Hurry and let my family go. Or else, the guards from the branch family behind me will barge in!”
Kelsey’s face was triumphant. He had been preparing for this day, so naturally, favonovel.com would not be afraid of Philip.
Yesterday was an unexpected defeat. He just had not expected Philip to be so strong handed and deal with favonovel.com head on.
Today, favonovel.com specially transferred all the people arranged by the branch family in Uppercreek just to exert pressure on Philip and force favonovel.com to release his family.
As for yesterday’s shameful incident, favonovel.com dared not tell the branch family. Otherwise, favonovel.com would be disgraced.
Philip smiled coldly, glanced at the people behind Kelsey, and said, “Wow, you’re well prepared this time and brought so many people with you. Well done, Kelsey Clarke. This is much better than yesterday.”
Upon hearing this, Kelsey clenched his fists bitterly!
