The First Heir

“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.
