The First Heir

Chapter 353

The atmosphere in the hospital room seemed different.

Giada smiled a smile that encompassed the warmth of a spring breeze, one that Philip knew there was more than met the eye.

It was a smile that removed herself from the narrative while she mocked and threatened at the same time.

Standing from her seat, she walked toward Philip who looked as if his entire world had crashed. She spoke gently, “Take your time as you explain to Wynn, would you? We’ll meet again, very soon.”

With that, Giada waved to bid Wynn farewell. “I’ll be leaving first then, Wynn. I’m sure Philip has his reasons to hide from you, so I do hope you’ll keep an open mind and hear him out.”

Wynn was about to stand and send her out only to be held back by Philip.

With no other choice, she smiled politely. “You can come over next time then, Aunt Giada.”

“Oh?”

There was a new hint of shock in Giada’s expression at the invitation. Her brows curved into a smile. “Very well then, I’ll visit when I have time. I’ll get going now, wouldn’t want to intrude on you two any longer after all.”

Only after Wynn respectfully bode Giada farewell did Giada leave the room.

This left Wynn and Philip alone in the hospital room.
