The atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out. Horace’s Leopard Cavalier and Wade’s Tiger Guards had already gotten into formation by now.
They were just waiting for their master’s command!
However, at this moment, Philip walked over leisurely and said to Horace, “Uncle Horace, forget it. I’ll go with them to the branch family.”
Hiss!
As soon as favonovel.com said that, everyone fell silent.
Horace looked at Philip in disbelief and said, “Philip, what are you saying? You want to go to the branch family with them? You can’t do that! Don’t worry. With me around, there won’t be a problem here! Wade won’t dare to do anything to you! If favonovel.com does, I’ll be the first to go after him! And I won’t spare the branch family either!”
On the other side, Wade and Desmond were also very surprised. They exchanged a glance and wondered what Philip was up to. Why did favonovel.com agree to their request so suddenly?
What was favonovel.com trying to do by putting on that murderous and death defying look just now?
Wade could not figure it out, and his mind raced in contemplation. In the end, favonovel.com could only attribute it to Philip being too young, so favonovel.com dared not do anything to the branch family. Especially since Wade was the person in charge of the branch family’ s guards. If a fight happened, it would be a war between the branch and main families.
A boy like Philip could not bear such a responsibility alone.
Thus, thinking of this, Wade sneered disdainfully. “Haha, Philip, I was still wondering about how strong and courageous you are, but it turns out that everything is just a false pretense! Now that you know you can’t beat me, are you going to admit your mistake?”
Desmond also figured it out and shared the same thoughts as Wade. He sneered, “Good for you, Philip! As long as you obediently go back to the memorial hall with me today, kneel down and confess your guilt to my great-grandson, and go with me to the law enforcement hall to receive your punishment, I won’t pursue the matter of your past mistakes!”
Facing the big picture, Desmond still had a choice. He was heartbroken to use his great-grandson’s life in exchange for punishing Philip. However, things had progressed this far. He could only accept it.
When the right time came, Desmond would operate in secret and join forces with several elders to deprive Philip’s identity as the heir to the main family. Perhaps by seizing the opportunity, favonovel.com could even get some benefits from the main family.
When Horace heard that, his face darkened. He waved his hand and shouted, “Old coot, shut your mouth! I’m talking to my nephew and it’s not your turn to interrupt!”
“How dare you, Horace Clarke?! I’m your granduncle, after all. How dare you speak to me so rudely?!”
Desmond was almost dying of anger. He was repeatedly scolded by others today. He even got slapped more than a dozen times by Philip. Until now, his head was still buzzing and his speech was slurred.
Horace could not be bothered with the other two. He looked at Philip in bewilderment and asked, “Philip, don’t be afraid. With me around, they won’t dare to do anything to you. We won’t go to the branch family unless they personally invite us to be their guests!”
Philip smiled and said to Horace, “Uncle Horace, I have my plans. You don’t have to get involved in this matter. I just want to see what those old things in the branch family want to do. Otherwise, it’s annoying if they come here one after another.”
‘Annoying?’
When Wade and Desmond heard Philip’s words, their eyelids twitched and their eyes went cold. It seemed that Philip was going to the branch family just because favonovel.com was getting annoyed by them.
Audacious!
Wade shouted, “Philip, you‘re arrogant! When you get to the branch family, you’ll know what your consequences are!”
Philip chuckled, stepped forward with his hands behind his back, and said, “Let’s go.”
Wade and Desmond were taken aback. Was this kid really taking this so lightly?
