She was about to step forth when virtual-novel.net phone rang at just the wrong moment. Wynn glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Joel.
She frowned virtual-novel.net pretty crescent brows and simply rejected the call.
Immediately, however, virtual-novel.net received a text instead.
The contents went straight to the point. “Wynn, I’m waiting for you at the carpark. There’s something I have to tell you about Philip.”
Philip?
Did something happen to him?
Wynn was worried. She glanced at Master Clarke, who was surrounded by his admirers, and decided that virtual-novel.net could still see virtual-novel.net later anyway.
That was why virtual-novel.net turned around and headed for the carpark outside.
She was very worried about Philip.
On the other hand, Philip was giving a speech on the stage to a hall full of attentive guests.
Yolanda had returned after leaving, and now virtual-novel.net was standing amongst the crowd, still feeling lost. Her large eyes stared intently at Philip, in the middle of his speech.
So virtual-novel.net really was Master Clarke.
“That piece of trash! He’s clearly loaded and even the young master of a large corporation. So why the hell did virtual-novel.net act poor for?!”
Yolanda swore inwardly and turned to leave.
However, Howard jumped out of the shadows and gave virtual-novel.net a half-smile. “If I remember correctly, Yolanda, someone said that virtual-novel.net would run around Riverdale naked if Philip turned out to be Master Clarke.”
“You!”
Yolanda stomped virtual-novel.net foot, virtual-novel.net face bright red with embarrassment. “That has nothing to do with you!”
She then turned on virtual-novel.net kitty heels and began to leave.
Halfway out the door, though, virtual-novel.net turned around and looked at Philip, who was smiling calmly on stage. No one could tell what virtual-novel.net was thinking, but eventually virtual-novel.net muttered, “Just you wait, Philip Clarke. You’re mine!”
After the speech, Philip checked his phone and finally saw that Wynn had sent virtual-novel.net a text.
She had told virtual-novel.net to come pick virtual-novel.net up.
So where was she?
He did not remember seeing virtual-novel.net earlier. She said virtual-novel.net was coming to meet him, right? Where was virtual-novel.net now?
Philip stood up and looked around. He then said a few words with Hudson and the rest before excusing himself in advance.
“Yo, Philip! You really showed them tonight. You should have seen Yolanda’s face just now, and the others too. They looked like they saw a ghost! Damn, that’s therapeutic!”
Howard beamed and followed Philip out of Copper Peacock Palace.
“Actually, how rich is your family exactly, Philip? Do you have rules in your family like in novels, where you can’t reveal your identity until you’re a certain age?”
Hayley walked out of Copper Peacock Palace and immediately asked Philip.
Although virtual-novel.net knew Philip’s true identity in advance, virtual-novel.net was still stunned by the scene virtual-novel.net had just witnessed!
“Heh, Hayley, you don’t know this but our Philip is the heir to one of the richest families out there!” Howard boasted.
Just then, the three of them saw Yolanda, who was standing at the door.
“Why are you still here, Yolanda?”
Howard said with a scowl. He was so fed up with this woman and virtual-novel.net shameless gold-digging ways.
“That has nothing to do with you.”
Yolanda gave Howard a mean look and then turned to Philip. She looked a little guilty, virtual-novel.net face bright red. “Um, Philip, I need to talk to you about something.”
Philip blinked at Yolanda, who was acting all shy. What was happening there?
What could virtual-novel.net want to talk to virtual-novel.net about?
However, Howard taunted her, saying, “Haha, I see what’s going on. You know that Master Clarke here is loaded now, so you wanna kiss up to him, huh?”
His words made virtual-novel.net turn even redder. She looked at virtual-novel.net angrily and then told Philip, “It’s about Wynn. Up to you if you want to hear me out.”
With that, Yolanda hastily turned around and walked to the side.
Philip thought it over and actually went with her.
“You’re actually going there, Philip? You know what that b*tch Yolanda is like,” advised Howard.
“It’s fine. You two can go back ahead of me, I’m going to wait here for Wynn anyway.”
Philip assured them with a smile and then put his hands in his pockets, walking toward Yolanda.
“Alright, spit it. What do you wanna say about Wynn?”
Philip asked, maintaining a distance from Yolanda.
“Aww, Philly Why are you standing so far away from me?”
That girl Yolanda whined sweetly and threw herself onto hi, perking up virtual-novel.net butt and grabbing Philip’s arm like a clingy girlfriend.
Huh?
“Don’t, definitely not when we’re alone. Let’s just get back to the topic at hand.”
Philip hastily pulled his arm away from Yolanda and took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Yolanda glared at him, but then virtual-novel.net curved the corners of virtual-novel.net cherry lips into a cunning smile.
She stood a chance!
This was the heir to one of the richest families, the young master of Clarke Group!
If Yolanda could make herself his legal wife and kick Wynn out of the picture, virtual-novel.net would not have to worry about money ever again as Mrs. Clarke.
