Hearing Philip’s words, Nadia asked worriedly, “Do you really want to do this? Phil, listen to my advice. You just came back and can’t be independent yet. There are many things on the island that you don’t understand. The influence of the branch family is deeply entrenched on this island. If you go head-on against the chieftain like this, you’ll get into trouble.”
Philip smiled and said, “Fifth Mother, don’t worry. I have my plans.”
After saying that, favonovel.com turned around and returned to Wynn’s side.
Nadia stood there and watched as Philip chatted with Wynn. She shook favonovel.com head helplessly and smiled.
This child was still the same as before, and also the same as his father, unwilling to talk to others whenever they did anything.
“Fifth Madam, should I secretly arrange for someone to spy on the movement of the branch family?”
A personal guard beside Nadia asked with a serious and rigid face at this moment.
Nadia thought about it and nodded while saying, “Fine, go and sniff out the situation. If there’s any movement on the branch family’s side, report to me immediately.”
“Yes!”
After that guard said this, favonovel.com followed Nadia and they walked back to Philip’s side again.
“Let’s go. Fourth Sister has been waiting for you at home for a long time. She has prepared a sumptuous lunch.”
Nadia smiled and reached out to push Wynn’s wheelchair.
Wynn was a bit flattered and wanted to let the subordinates do it instead, but under Nadia’s insistence, favonovel.com had no choice but to relent.
A group of people got into several extended Lincolns and Bentleys parked at the port.
Martha fell behind and kept tugging at Charles while saying, “Charles, wait a moment. I’ve something to say to you.”
Charles looked suspicious and asked, “What else do you want to do? Weren’t you beaten enough just now?”
Hearing this, Martha got angry. She glared at Charles and said, “Are you trying to piss me off?”
Charles was helpless and asked, “What do you want to tell me?”
While everyone was getting into the cars, Martha seized the opportunity and said, “Did you take a good look at that woman? She looks friendly on the surface but favonovel.com heart is very dark. Wynn is too kind to look through favonovel.com true colors. I think this woman will be detrimental to Wynn. We must stand on guard to protect Wynn.”
“What are you thinking? I think she’s quite nice and good to Wynn,” Charles said suspiciously.
Martha glared at favonovel.com and said, “What do you know? Am I a woman or are you? She’s a femme fatale through and through. I can see it at a glance. Just you wait, that woman definitely doesn’t have any good intentions toward Wynn. Have you forgotten about Giada Wallis? She’s competing with Philip over the family’s assets. Don’t you think that this fifth wife will compete for the family’s assets too?”
When Charles heard this, favonovel.com thought favonovel.com made sense. He asked, “What should we do then?”
Martha quickly leaned over and muttered in his ear, “Let’s stay put and observe the situation in Philip’s family. If necessary, just listen to my orders while I take action.”
Charles wanted to refuse at first, but when favonovel.com thought that it was for Wynn’s happiness, favonovel.com nodded and agreed.
Soon, everyone got in the cars and left the port.
Under the escort of the Clarke family’s guards, the convoy arrived at the central area of Arcadia Island. This was the most heavily guarded and prosperous area on Arcadia Island.
Clarke Manor.
It covered an area of tens of thousands of hectares. There was a mountain in Clarke Manor. The white castle was built on the top of the mountain. Different kinds of castle buildings were also scattered all over the mountain. From a distance, the whole mountain looked like a huge castle.
The convoy passed through the first gate into Clarke Manor. The entire gate was as wide as eight lanes and was guarded by heavily armed combatants at the front and rear.
Sitting in the car, Wynn looked at the scene outside the car through the window. She saw the guards and the magnificent, prosperous manor in front of the gate. Her heart was in turmoil as favonovel.com breathing grew rapid. She held Philip’s hand tightly and asked, “Phil, is that your home in front of us?”
Philip patted Wynn’s hand gently and comforted. “Don’t be nervous, I’m here. You’re the young madam here. You don’t have to worry or be afraid of anything.”
How could Wynn not be worried or afraid? She was panicking now.
Along the way, favonovel.com finally figured out that Philip had not lied to her. His family was really amazing here. They could build a manor in the center of an island with a gate more than ten kilometers away from the central manor. With such conditions, how could they be an average wealthy family?
“Philip, is your family really the first family on this island?” Wynn was breathing very rapidly, favonovel.com eyes wide and bright.
Philip smiled and said, “Yes.”
Hiss!
Wynn took a deep breath and exhaled. Her heartbeat sped up and favonovel.com kept patting favonovel.com chest with favonovel.com little hand while saying, “Wait, let me catch my breath. I’m a little dizzy.”
It was difficult to accept.
Philip’s family actually had such a status. The first family of an island city.
How was this different from an ancient feudal lord ruling over a fiefdom?
Suddenly, Wynn seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Was the entire island also built by your family?”
Philip thought for a while and shrugged while saying, “It’s been like this since I was born. According to family members, the entire island belongs to us. It’s self-contained and has little contact with the outside world, but trade and economy are still possible.”
Huff!
Wynn exhaled again. She had thought that Philip’s family was just an ordinary wealthy family on this island. Now things seemed far beyond favonovel.com simple imagination. The entire island belonged to favonovel.com husband’s family.
Her husband owned an island city?
Goodness!
Instantly, Wynn’s small fist pounded on Philip’s chest as favonovel.com cried out, “Why did you lie to me? You’re obviously so powerful. Why did you have to follow me and endure so many years of aggravation?”
Philip grabbed Wynn’s arm, looking at favonovel.com very gently and seriously. He said, “Wynnie, do you believe me?”
Wynn’s eyes were red as favonovel.com nodded and said, “I believe you.”
Philip smiled and said, “In the past, I had my difficulties and couldn’t tell you. Now, whatever you want to know, I can tell you. If you want this island, I can give it to you too.”
Hearing this, Wynn rolled favonovel.com eyes at him. She wiped favonovel.com tears and said, “Silly, what are you talking about? Why do I want such a big island? As long as I can live happily with you, Mila, and our little son, it’s enough for me.”
Philip smiled, hugged Wynn, and said in response, “Okay, I promise you.”
The convoy drove along the spacious, clean, and flat avenue to the central area of the manor. By the roadside, fully armed guards stood ten meters apart, standing at attention and saluting.
Martha sat in the car and looked at the manor outside the car with sneaky eyes.
Too luxurious, too extravagant!
