Chapter 919
The First Heir
Wynn also noticed the movement behind her and sat up sideways. She was slightly surprised when
she suddenly saw these people in the ward.
However, she still asked with a polite smile, âHello, you are?â
Wynn was very curious. Why was there suddenly an old man sitting in a wheelchair in her ward?
Looking at the people around him, they looked like private guards. Furthermore, the dormant aura
around everyone was unfathomable.
Even if it was hidden well and deep, Wynn was still keenly aware of it.
The old man in the wheelchair, even though he was very old, was still as steady as a mountain. His
eyes revealed the vicissitudes of the world amid the chaos.
Although he was an old man at the brink of his life, the majestic aura he exuded was the first of its kind
Wynn had encountered in her life!
It was too strong.
It was like a dormant dragon.
Moreover, he and Philip had the same aura.
The old man took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his mouth. His elderly eyes
were gentle while the corners of his mouth were smiling and looked very kind, making Wynn feel very
warm.
âAhem, Philip has made the right choice indeed.â
The old man smiled as he mumbled to himself. Then, with a benevolent smile of an elder, he looked at
Wynn and said, âIâm Philipâs father.â
Philipâs father?
Roger Clarke!
In an instant, Wynn was stunned and looked at the old man in front of her with incredulous eyes.
âFather-in-law.â
After a brief hesitation, Wynn tried to stand up to pay her respects.
This was the first time she met Philipâs father, her father-in-law. Naturally, she had to show her respect.
Moreover, she had never heard anything about her father-in-law from Philip before. It seemed that
Philip had deliberately avoided discussing matters about his father.
Seeing Wynnâs actions, Roger raised his hand gently and said, âNo need, youâre still pregnant. Iâm just
here to see you. Whereâs Mila?â
âMila is at home. Iâll ask someone to bring her here right away.â
Wynn quickly dialed Anneâs number, said a few brief words, then sat aside respectfully.
Meeting with her father-in-law for the first time, Wynn seemed very self-conscious.
She had no idea why the aura from her father-in-law was so oppressive.
Even though Roger deliberately suppressed it, his majestic aura from the inside out still made Wynn a
little frightened.
Roger sat there sternly while the guards behind him kept a close watch on all the entrances and exits.
âDaughter-in-law, have you ever wanted to go home and have a look?â With his handkerchief in his
hand, Roger asked in a low voice.
He tried to maintain a kind smile. The more he looked at Wynn in front of him, the more he liked her.
Philip had found a good wife.
Wynn rubbed her hands and said with a nod, âIâve thought about it, but Philip said itâs not time yet.â
Roger nodded and said wistfully, âDonât blame Philip. He has his own plans. The current situation at
home is a bit complicated. This time, I came out just to see you and your child. If you need my help,
just say the word. I wasnât present when you and Philip got married. When Mila was born, I wasnât
there either. Iâm not a competent father or a competent grandfather. I hope you donât blame me.
Ahemâ¦â
After saying this, Roger coughed violently. It was as if every sentence he said took a lot of effort.
A tall middle-aged man with a strong face stood behind him, his features sharply defined. There was a
sense of vicissitudes in his eyes.
He frowned slightly, bent over, and whispered in Rogerâs ear, âOld Master, speak less. Your bodyâ¦â
Roger waved his hand and said with a smile, âItâs not a problem. Itâs rare to see Philipâs wife. Sheâs the
daughter-in-law of the Clarke family. Itâs okay to say a few more words.â
Wynn was also very nervous. Seeing her father-in-law like this, he seemed to be in poor health.
Roger looked at Wynn amiably and nodded, feeling joyful.
Ten minutes later, Anne came into the ward with Mila in her arms.
Little Mila skipped in, looking very cute with two ponytails like a porcelain doll. She pounced on Wynn
and said sweetly, âMom, Iâm here to see you.â
Wynn hugged Mila and rubbed her little head.
The lively Mila attracted everyoneâs attention from the moment she entered the ward.
Roger and the guards in the ward all looked at Mila kindly, their eyes filled with joy and excitement.
Was this his granddaughter?
Roger was very excited as he laughed and said, âIs this my precious granddaughter?â
So similar!
She was indeed a bloodline of the Clarke family.
Several shadow guards on the side also looked at Mila with doting eyes.
It was difficult to imagine that these people who dealt with life and death situations every day would
show such affectionate gazes.
It was like a flash of light in eternal darkness.
They understood that this was the young lady, the existence they needed to protect with their lives.
Even the middle-aged man behind Roger had a kind smile upon his lips.
He was the spiritual pillar and only leader of the entire Shadow Squadron who reported directly under
Roger Clarke.
