Chapter 2643
The First Heir
Back to Philip and Fennel. At this time, they had left seclusion and were chatting in the room.
âSo, how do you feel?â Philip asked with a smile.
Fennel took a sip of wine and said, âNot bad, I finally took that step forward. Next, I need to go to the
Nonagon to take some things back.â
Philip nodded and asked, âWhat things?â
Fennel smiled and said, âSome things I once lost.â
Philip pursed his lips and did not ask further but said instead, âLet me know if you need my help.â
Fennel smiled and said, âSure.â
At this moment, a servant walked over and said with a bow, âMr. Clarke, Mr. Leon Jefferson is here to
see you.â
Philip quickly got up and said, âLet him in.â
Soon, Leon walked in with Mila.
Little Mila had been frightened out of her wits in the past few days. At the sight of Philip, she
immediately ran and jumped into his arms while sobbing loudly, âDad, boo-hoo, I thought Iâd never see
you again.â
Philip hugged Mila, bopped her nose, and said, âSilly girl. Iâm here, arenât I? So, are you injured
anywhere?â
Mila rubbed her big teary eyes, pursed her lips, and sobbed. âNoâ¦â
Philip felt his heart aching. After finally comforting Mila, he got someone to bring Mila out before he said
to Leon, âVilla Master Jefferson, thank you very much.â
Leon immediately replied, âYoung Patriarch Clarke, you donât have to do this. Itâs just a small matter.â
After the pleasantries, Leon sat down and said to Philip, âYoung Patriarch Clarke, what do you plan to
do next?â
Philip shrugged and said, âIâm here to save my daughter. I donât have any other plans. Do you have
anything in mind?â
Leon smiled and said, âYoung Patriarch Clarke, you promised me earlier that you would participate in
the Disciple Competition, which will start in five days. Iâd like to confirm if youâll be attending it.â
Hearing that, Philip nodded and said, âSince itâs your request, of course, Iâll agree. But the Singer family
has been destroyed. Will this competition go on as usual?â
Hearing this, Leon breathed a sigh of relief before he said, âThe Disciple Competition wonât be affected
by external factors. The incident with the Singer family has caused a storm in the North, and many
families are speculating about Young Patriarch Clarke and Mr. Leigh. With this opportunity, the two of
you can also make a name for yourselves in the North. When the time finally comes for the North and
South to combine forces, itâll also fulfill Grantâs last wish.â
Philip glanced sideways at Fennel and asked, âDo you want to participate too?â
Fennel shrugged and said, âIâm fine either way.â
