The First Heir

Philip knew what he had done at Beacon Pharmaceutical was overbearing and somewhat cruel.

It was only understandable that Wynn had become suspicious of him.

Should he tell her his true identity?

No.

Giada was already in Riverdale, and Philip did not know what that woman was planning.

She would not come to Riverdale without a reason. Hence, she had to be planning something.

He was restricting himself a lot by agreeing to that woman’s conditions.

If Philip did not need to protect the people he loved by adhering to her conditions, he would have turned the world upside down already.

“Wynnie, do you really want to know?” Philip asked with a raised brow.

Wynn hesitated before nodding shortly after. “I want to know about your past. I have a feeling that you’re not the Philip that I know. Did you used to be the way you were just now?”

Philip shook his head and lied as he said, “No no no, not at all.”

If Wynn found out about those ridiculous and despotic things he had done in the past, there was a chance she would go insane.

After staying silent for a while and composing his thoughts, Philip said, “Chloe and I are from aristocratic families. A long time ago, there was a marriage contract between the two of us. However, I only saw her as my little sister. So, on the day of the engagement, I fought with my father and ran away from home. I wasn’t expecting Chloe to resent me for seven whole years.
