Chapter 1808

Philip turned around, looked at the woman, and said with a smile, “Old George has told me about you.

You’ve been very capable.”

Maia Harp was the Clarke family’s person in charge of Hampton and also the chief president in

Charbury, as arranged by the Clarke family.

She was only 28 years old this year but she was already a successful career woman. She was in

charge of all the Clarke family’s businesses and staffing arrangements in Charbury. She may be a

woman but she was more capable than a man!

Otherwise, the Clarke family would not have appointed her as the chief president of the Charbury

region.

“Thank you for the compliment, Young Master.” Maia smiled, her eyebrows arching like half crescents.

She added, “Butler Thomas has already briefed me about the purpose of your visit to Hampton this

time. I’ll definitely carry out your arrangements. Please rest assured in giving me your orders.”

Philip nodded and asked, “How much do you know about the Dunley family in Charbury?”

Maia replied without hesitation, “The Dunley family is the king in the entire Charbury area. No one

dares to mess with them. The economic development of the entire Charbury area is driven by the

Dunley family. No one can rock the position of the Dunley family in Charbury.”

Philip nodded as he stroked his chin, saying, “Continue.”

Maia continued, “The current patriarch of the Dunley family is Sterling Dunley. He got the position of

patriarch after a coup d’état. He secretly joined forces with his third brother, Spencer Dunley, and

snatched the position of patriarch that should have belonged to the eldest son of the Dunley family.

Therefore, any gossip about Sterling and Spencer in the Charbury area is taboo. Moreover, the Dunley

family employed iron handed methods to handle this matter, exiling all the people who were involved

back then. The eldest son of the Dunley family, Godfrey Dunley, got both his legs broken. He has been

put under house arrest for 20 years now.”

“Sterling Dunley and Spencer Dunley? What do you know about these two people?” Philip frowned and

asked.

Maia replied, “Sterling is a talented prodigy. Since taking over the position of patriarch, the Dunley

family has undergone a renewal. The development of the Dunley family’s power has also become very

rapid. In just ten years, they have become a great clan in the mainland and are on equal footing with

the Wallis family in Golden City. Moreover, according to the news from Butler Thomas, the former

Dunley family was also a behemoth. They were one of the six great clans back then, sitting at the same

conference table with the Clarke family to discuss and work together. They were also a frequent visitor

to the round table. Only later did the Dunley family go through several changes and fall into decline.

However, the foundation of the Dunley family is still here. Sterling Dunley still has grand ambitions. The

lord once evaluated Sterling as having the potential of a monarch.”

Upon hearing this, Philip frowned. It turned out that the Dunley family had such origins.

They were even once on par with the Clarke family. No wonder Moses Dunley knew some things he did

not back then. It seemed that he had underestimated the Dunley family of Charbury.

This was no different from the ancient feudal lords.

“What about Spencer? What is this person like?” Philip asked.

Maia frowned and said with a tense breath, “Young Master, there’s not much information about Spencer

Dunley in Charbury, only a few words here and there. Based on the news received so far, Spencer was

the mastermind and implementer of that coup d’état. He’s a refined person but employs harsh means.

He was the one who broke the legs of Godfrey Dunley, the eldest son of the Dunley family. It’s rumored

that Spencer is a literary general and also the secret pawn kept by the Dunley family. Some people

also say that Sterling is just the figure in the forefront while Spencer is the figure behind the scenes. All

in all, Spencer is not an easy person to mess with.”
