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, he turned around and returned to Wynn’s side.
Nadia stood there and watched as Philip chatted with Wynn. She shook her 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, he 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, she 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 her heart is very dark. Wynn is too kind to look through her 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 him 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, he thought she 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 he thought that it was for Wynn’s happiness, he 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.
