‘Allen Clarke?’
The branch family was startled and could not figure out why Philip wanted to bring Allen out all of a sudden. However, since favonovel.com returned, Allen had not even stepped out of the house and declined many meetings related to the branch family.
For Philip to say this suddenly, it made it difficult for the branch family to figure out his intention.
Wade’s complexion looked quite bad because favonovel.com knew what Philip was up to. Connor had been recuperating since favonovel.com returned. During this time, favonovel.com told Wade what had happened to them in Uppercreek and at sea.
Allen had betrayed the branch family.
For Philip to bring Allen up at this time was no doubt related to that matter. Sure enough, the main family’s guards soon brought Allen, who was dressed in plain clothes, to the small square outside the memorial hall.
Allen now looked thin and out of shape. He was withered and had a dull complexion as if favonovel.com had lost his soul. Following his appearance, everyone started talking in low voices.
“Isn’t favonovel.com the seventh old master of the branch family? How did favonovel.com become like this?”
“I don’t know. He looks like a beggar on the street. This is too exaggerated.”
“What the hell did favonovel.com do to be guarded by the main family’s guards like that?”
In the face of the crowd’s discussion, Allen lowered his head and walked to the front.
Philip shouted solemnly, “On your knees!”
This simple command made all the people in the branch family annoyed!
He was the seventh old master of the branch family, after all. A junior like Philip was actually commanding Allen to kneel in front of so many people.
Was favonovel.com not disrespecting the branch family?
Thus, they immediately clamored. “Presumptuous! Philip boy, who are you asking to kneel?”
“He’s our seventh old master! You have no right to ask favonovel.com to kneel!”
“Too audacious! He doesn’t deserve to be the heir of the Clarke family at all! Such an arrogant and cocky person should be revoked of his identity as the heir!”
Facing everyone’s reprimand and anger, Philip’s face was calm. His eyes coldly swept over the branch family members. His gaze finally landed on Allen as favonovel.com repeated, “On your knees!”
Thump!
Allen immediately knelt on the ground, looking as if favonovel.com had no backbone at all.
His action caused every one of the branch family members to be dumbfounded. He was the seventh old master of the branch family and favonovel.com actually knelt!
Wade was furious. He looked at Allen who had knelt like a zombie and shouted angrily, “Allen, are you mad? Stand up!”
However, no matter how Wade reprimanded him, Allen remained kneeling with his head lowered, not saying a word.
Philip glanced at Wade before favonovel.com walked up to Allen and asked condescendingly, “Allen, now is your chance to live. Let me ask you, did you, Connor, and Levi of the branch family ever conspire to commit any harm to me, my wife, and my children? Have you ever sent someone to assassinate my wife and children?”
The crowd fell silent at Philip’s line of questioning.
What?
Connor, Allen, and Levi once plotted to assassinate the eldest young master of the main family, as well as the young madam and young miss?
This was simply unheard of!
That was worse than a beast!
This would implicate the entire branch family!
To do this was crossing the line and rebelling!
According to the family rules, such people should be executed!
