Wynn rolled her eyes at him and said, “I was worried about you. How could I sleep?”

Philip laughed and put his arm around Wynn. The two sat on the sofa together. Wynn leaned on his shoulder and curled her legs. She wrapped her arms around Philip‘s waist. She smiled happily and sweetly while saying, “Phil, is it true that you’ll take me to my mother-in-law’s mausoleum tomorrow?”

Philip nodded and held Wynn’s tender little hand. He said, “Yes, I’ll bring you there tomorrow. The day after tomorrow will be the ancestor commemoration ceremony. At that time, you’ll become the true young madam of the Clarke family.”

“Ancestor commemoration ceremony?”

Wynn raised her head and looked at Philip in confusion. She said, “You never mentioned it to me.”

Philip smiled, scratched her cute nose, and said, “It’s not a big deal. It’s just to pay respect to the ancestors and announce that you’re the young madam of the Clarke family. It‘s very simple. I’ll be going with you when the time comes.”
