The first heir novel (Master Yu Who Smokes) novel Chapter 474

“Philip, is there anything you’re hiding from me?”

Wynn asked and looked intensely at Philip.

Philip approached her and held her in his arms. He smiled and said, “No. What are you thinking? I’ve told you everything I need to.”

Philip was betting that Giada had not said anything to her.

He knew she would not tell Wynn anything.

If that was the case, he could bring Wynn and Mila back home in a right and proper manner.

As for why he refused to tell Wynn his real identity, Philip had his own considerations as well.

Wynn came from an ordinary family. She did not have the foundation nor a huge family as her backing. If Philip revealed who he was or if he brought them home, the Wallises and the other powers might want to take action against them.

In this world, the Wallises were not the only family eyeing the Clarkes.

The situation now was like a tug of war. The end of the rope with more people would most likely be the winning side.

Once Philip broke this equilibrium, the chain reaction would happen.

A lot of them would have an acrimonious falling out, and they would break all relations with the Clarkes.

In this situation, it would be impossible for Philip to protect Wynn and Mila with all his heart.

Philip was like a weed now. No one would bother him.

However, this weed could still grow into a huge tree. As such, everyone would step on this weed with no mercy.

Hence, he could only take one step at a time to make himself stronger—so strong until he was not afraid of anyone or any authorities out there. Then, finally, he could announce it to the whole world.

Wynn turned her body and rolled her eyes at Philip. She said, “Aunt Giada told me that your restaurant business is not as measly as you say.”

Philip frowned and asked hurriedly, “Did she tell you the details?”

Wynn shook her head and said, “This is what I want to ask you. I’m your wife, so why are you hiding this from me?

“Philip, how big is your family business?”

Philip let out a sigh of relief internally. Then, he pretended to look indifferent and explained. “Wynnie, actually, my family…”

Thud!

Suddenly, the door was opened from the outside.

Martha fell down by the door, and her eyes went wide. She smiled awkwardly at the two of them on the bed.

“Oh, um, Wynnie, I need to see you for a bit. Come with me.”

Martha got up immediately. She peered at them and left while swaying her fat bottom.

Wynn and Philip looked at each other helplessly. They were utterly speechless with Martha’s behavior.

Wynn got up and said, “I’ll go downstairs for a bit.”

After she said that, she went out of the room and headed to the living room. Then, she saw Martha on the sofa, fuming.
