Chapter 164 Why Apologize?

Philip's face flashed with panic and he smiled, making an excuse, "It's almost autumn, and those two ponds attract mosquitoes. I had them filled in."

"Oh, I see..." Emerson Hurst nodded and looked deeply at Philip before saying nothing more.

The next second, Emerson pulled out a design plan and placed it in front of Philip.

"Mr. Mclaughlin, you have such a large courtyard that needs proper care! This is the new design plan I created for you. Do you like the layout? My idea is to place two mythical beasts on each side of your mansion’s entrance..."

Emerson explained his vision to Philip who couldn't understand any of it as his mind was blank. He only felt worried and suspicious that Emerson would use geomancy tactics to harm their family again. "What do you think about this Mr. Mclaughlin?"

"Mr. Mclaughlin? What are you thinking?"

After Emerson finished speaking, he asked Philip who quickly nodded and said, "Good! Good! Mr. Hurst, please go ahead with your plans; thank you for your efforts.”

He didn't dare show any other reaction but pretended everything was fine with him.

“It's nothing; it's my professional work."

Emerson said smilingly while a cold light flashed deep in his eyes. After this encounter ended when Emerson left the room, Philip tried calling Lachlan several times but no one answered the phone which made him even more anxious than before so he called one of his trusted employees instead, "Hurry up! Find out where Mr. Willis is located by any means necessary. Tell me as soon as possible!" Meanwhile...

Just after hanging up from talking with Philip on the phone, another number called Lachlan's phone line immediately afterward,
