Chapter 1989
The First Heir
Upon hearing that, Buckâs expression changed and he asked in surprise, âAre you going to deal with
the branch family?â
Philip took a deep breath, stood up, looked at the vast Arcadia Island across, and said, âThatâs right.â
With that said, he turned around, looked at Buck, and said, âBuck, when the time comes, I may have to
trouble you guys.â
Buck frowned, thought for a moment, and said, âPhilip, youâre the young master of the Clarke family. By
right, youâre my young master. I donât dare to disobey your orders. Even if you send us to our deaths,
we wonât have any complaints. But as your buddy, I have to remind you that the branch family isnât as
simple as you think. I hope you can think twice before you act.â
Philip smiled and said, âI know that the influence of the branch family on Arcadia Island, their assets
invested in the outside world, as well as their connections, are not things I can contend with. Especially
since Iâve just returned. But how will I know the results if I donât even try?â
After that, he looked at Buck with a slight smile and stood up.
Buck also got up, looked at Philip who was walking away, and said, âIf weâre needed, weâll swear
allegiance and fight to our deaths!â
With these words, Philip raised his hand in a wave and shouted, âGot it.â
After that, Philip took a shower on this small island and changed his clothes. Then, he boarded the
yacht and prepared to return to Arcadia Island.
Before leaving, Buck stood at the port with the rest. âWhen will you make a move?â Buck inquired.
Philip thought for a while, patted Buck on the shoulder, and said, âItâs not time yet. If something
happens, Iâll send someone to contact you.â
Buck nodded and led the others to stand at attention and salute as they watched Philip leave.

Back to Clarke Manor, inside a classic castle villa. It was the residence of the fourth madam of the
Clarke family.
Nadia Sawyer walked in with Wynn. When she saw the interior of the villa, Wynn almost fell over in
shock.
The interior of the entire castle villa was simply too extravagant. Many precious paintings done by
famous people hung on the walls, and many famous paintings that would be sold at high prices in
auctions outside could also be found here.
The ceiling was also designed like a dome with exquisite murals of saints and holy maidens. It looked
magnificent and grand.
Two rows of servants stood in the front hall, smiling and bowing to Wynn and Nadia in unison. They
greeted, âWe welcome Fifth Madam and Young Madam.â .
Wynn was so scared that her heart was pounding. If it were not for Nadia grabbing her little hand and
leading her inside, she might have run away. This was even more luxurious than those mansions
shown on TV.
At this moment, a gentle and very happy voice came from inside, âWynnie, youâre finally back. I miss
you so much.â
Hazel Eva came out at this time in a luxurious dress, looking elegant and graceful. She stepped
forward and hugged Wynn. She grabbed her arm, took a good look at her, and said, âYouâve lost weight
after giving birth. Let me fatten you up.â
Wynn smiled and said politely, âThank you, Fourth Mother.â
Hazel responded with an unrestrained smile, led Wynn to a seat, and said, âSit down. Iâve prepared
something especially for you.â
After that, she clapped her hands and a row of servants walked in through the side door carrying
golden trays.
