The First Heir
Chapter 14
Philip pondered before saying, “I won’t meet him for now. Let’s talk about it in the future.”
Anna replied, “Understood, Mr. Clarke.”
After the call ended, Philip sat in the corridor and slept the night away.
The next day, early in the morning, Wynn said to him coldly, “I’m taking Mila home in the afternoon, will you be coming with me?”
Philip nodded and gave her a bitter smile. “I’ll go and apologize to Father.”
Wynn’s heart skipped a beat when she heard him, but her expression remained indifferent, only nodding without saying anything.
In the afternoon, Philip and Wynn brought Mila to the Johnston family home. The atmosphere in the house was cold as soon as they entered.
“Dad, I’m home.” Wynn feigned composure.
No one came out to greet them. Charles was sitting on the sofa wearing reading glasses as he read the paper while Martha was busy in the kitchen.
Philip put Mila down, and the little girl immediately hid behind her father’s leg, hugging Philip’s leg tightly. She looked up with her big innocent eyes and mumbled in a small voice, “Daddy, do Grandpa and Grandma dislike me?”
Philip squatted down and lovingly caressed Mila’s tiny head. He shook his head and smiled gently at her. “That’s not true. Hurry on inside and greet Grandpa and Grandma.”
Little Mila’s big eyes were shining like obsidian gems. She carefully albeit fearfully glanced at Charles, who was reading his paper before moving her tiny feet to run to him, calling out in a crisp voice, “Grandpa, Mila is here.”
Charles then put down his paper, stood up, walked away from his sofa, and entered the study without giving her so much as a glance.
Bam! The door of the study closed shut. That sound crushed down heavily on both Philip and Wynn’s heart.
Wynn looked at Mila, who was pursing her lips, about to cry and quickly ran over to carry her daughter up. She brought her into her bedroom.
