Martha was shocked by Philip’s words and the look in his eyes.
She was stunned for a long while and could not react. She stammered, “I… I’m not going back. I’m not going back…”
After saying that, favonovel.com lowered favonovel.com head, not daring to look Philip directly in the eye.
What a terrible feeling!
At that moment, Martha felt like favonovel.com was being targeted by a fierce beast. She thought favonovel.com was going to piss favonovel.com pants from fear.
Horrible! Simply terrifying!
Was favonovel.com still the same Philip Clarke?
How could favonovel.com have such a frightening look in his eyes?
Charles also saw that something was wrong and quickly laughed, saying, “Hehe, Philip, don’t blame your mother. She just has a bad temper, but in fact, she’s kind-hearted.”
Philip swept a cold glance over them. Then, favonovel.com turned his head. With a gentle smile at the corners of his mouth, favonovel.com said to Wynn, “Wynnie, I’m going out for a while and might be back late tonight.”
Wynn nodded and watched as Philip left.
After Philip left, Martha breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked Charles to pour favonovel.com a glass of water. She drank it quickly, took a deep breath, and said, “It’s terrible, Wynnie. Philip treated me like that just now, aren’t you going to speak up for me?”
Wynn glanced at favonovel.com and said helplessly, “Mom, you’re the unreasonable one. Who can you blame?”
“You little turncoat! I raised you for more than 20 years in vain!” Martha was so angry that favonovel.com pointed at Wynn and was about to scold her.
Upon seeing this, Charles quickly pushed Martha out.
After Philip left, favonovel.com went straight to the hotel where Connor Clarke and the others were put under house arrest. In the hotel suite, Connor’s face was gloomy as favonovel.com sat on the sofa.
Levi Clarke stood beside Connor, bent his body, and asked, “Grandpa, when will my father come to Uppercreek? If this continues to drag on, Philip will bring us back to Arcadia Island. When that happens, it’ll be a disgrace to our branch family.”
Connor raised his eyebrows, snorted coldly, and said, “Hmph, if that brat Philip really dares to do that, he’ll make an enemy of the branch family! Your father has encountered some problems and can’t come to Uppercreek for the time being. We must find our own way to get out of here.”
Levi frowned and asked, “Grandpa, in that case, have you thought of a way?”
Connor tilted his face, glared at Levi, and said, “If I have, would we still be here?”
Allen was also standing at the side and spoke up at this time, “Connor, Philip has some means and strength. I didn’t expect that favonovel.com could grow so many forces of his own after being away from Arcadia Island for so long. We’ve lost contact with all the people we arranged in Uppercreek.”
Upon hearing this, Levi and Connor’s faces darkened.
“Lost contact with all of them? How is it possible? These are all the elites of our branch family. How could we lose all of them?” Levi was in disbelief, his expression looking unpleasant.
Allen nodded and said, “I’ve tried to contact them but there’s no news so far. Connor, I think we need to reconsider this. Philip is not as simple as we think. I think favonovel.com has someone behind favonovel.com who’s secretly helping him. This person is most likely the main family’s…”
Allen did not complete his sentence but the meaning had been expressed.
