Chapter 1976

While thinking, Martha hurried out of the room and ran to Wynn and Philip’s room.

To be honest, Martha was very envious when she saw the highest-class suite that Wynn and Philip

stayed in. However, she did not say anything but knocked on the door and whispered, “Philip, Wynnie,

are you up yet?”

At this moment, Philip heard the knock on the door, raised his brows, and sneered, “Your mother is

here again.”

Wynn was also very helpless. Her mother had never been so enthusiastic and polite before. She said,

“She’s just like that. Philip, promise me that as long as my mother doesn’t go too overboard, you won’t

take her too personally.”

Philip gently patted Wynn’s small hand and said, “Don’t worry. I know what to do.”

After saying that, he walked over and opened the room door. He saw Martha with a face full of smiles

as she scurried in and said, “Philip, let me ask you, is your family’s home really on this island?”

Philip hummed in agreement. Martha held her chest excitedly and gasped. She quickly smiled, pulled

Philip, and said, “Oh, my good son-in-law, why didn’t you tell me before that your home is in such a

place?”

Philip snorted and said, “Didn’t you say that my home is a dog kennel in a remote countryside?”

Martha knew that she had said something silly and slapped her face lightly while saying, “I was wrong.

It’s all nonsense.”

Philip could not be bothered with her and asked coldly, “Tell me what you want ”

Martha quickly walked to Wynn, took Wynn’s hand, and put it in Philip’s hand while saying, “It’s nothing.

I just hope that you and my daughter will have a good relationship forever.”

Wynn and Philip looked at each other, feeling helpless.

“Mom, that’s enough. You’re full of flattery right from the moment you walk in the door. Philip is not an

outsider. Don’t you know his character by now?”

Wynn grumbled a little. Her mother was really willing to lower her stature for money. It was too

embarrassing. However, Martha did not think so. After saying a few more words, she swayed her big

hips and left happily.

Back to Connor Clarke and the other two. At this moment, they were locked in the cargo hold in the

basement of the cruise ship.

“Outrageous! Damn Philip! How dare he treat me this way?! I’m the former Chieftain of the branch

family!”

Connor was sitting on a bag of flour, his head full of silver hair. He looked disheveled, and his cane was

creaking in his hand. Levi and Allen also sat on the side with faces full of anger.

Too hateful!

They were members of the Clarke family but Philip actually locked them up in this warehouse. It was

smelly and dark in there.

For a pampered young master like Levi, it was simply hellish torture.

“Grandpa, what should we do? We’re almost there. Are we going to just sit here and wait to die?”

Levi looked very miserable now. If word of this spread out, he would surely be a laughing stock. He

hated this.

“How is it? Haven’t you gotten through yet? We’ve almost reached the island. What happened to those

people you arranged?” At this moment, Connor asked Allen coldly.

Allen also looked wretched as he kept dialing the phone. He said anxiously, “Connor, I don’t know

what’s going on. I just can’t get in touch with them. Could it be that because we’re locked up in here,

there’s no signal?”

“Useless piece of trash!”

Connor immediately cursed when he heard this.
