Chapter 296

Philip knew exactly what Wynn was thinking, so he said, “What you saw was arranged by a friend of
my dad’s whom I’ve contacted. He happened to be working in the special forces in Riverdale. I don’t
know why he made such a big commotion, but don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”

Wynn was relieved now. Initially, she thought Philip’s family was part of that circle, or maybe he was the
offspring of the sort of family with a special background that could only be seen on TV.

It seemed that she had been overthinking it.

Nevertheless, Wynn was even more curious about Philip’s family now.

Wynn asked many questions in the duration of their candlelight dinner. Philip cleverly avoided the
crucial questions and gave Wynn a satisfactory explanation each time.

“Wynnie, trust me. There are some things that I can’t tell you yet, but I promise you that one day, I’ll tell
you everything.”

Philip sat in the garden with Wynn in his arms, enjoying the warmth.

Wynn nodded.

At this moment, she had full faith in Philip.

At least, Philip had told her part of the truth.

For example, Philip planned to take Wynn and Mila home for a visit.

Wynn was agitated, excited, but nervous at the same time. Would her parents-in-law accept her and
Mila?



“Wynnie, how should we handle Dad and Mom? Should we tell them we’ve bought a villa at Longford
Park?” Philip suddenly asked.

Wynn thought for a moment before she replied, “For Mom’s side, let’s wait for a while. I’m afraid there’ll
be trouble again.”

Philip nodded, hugged Wynn tenderly, and basked in the moonlight.

Two days later, the wounds on Wynn’s face had healed.

During this time, Philip went to and fro between the hospital and Longford Park.

Wynn had applied for leave, but she needed to return to work today. Hutten Pharmaceutical Factory
had released a press announcement on their bankruptcy and liquidation, so there were many things
that Wynn had to handle back in the company.

After the press release, Jared Hutt was also taken away by the prosecutor and was convicted on
multiple charges.

The well-established Hutten Pharmaceutical collapsed overnight and made headlines in Riverdale.
Many people were talking about it.

This incident naturally caused an uproar in Riverdale.

Many people in the upper circle were speculating if Hutten Pharmaceutical had offended someone.

Even the Logan family of Capital City that stood behind them was seized.

With the two incidents happening at the same time, everyone knew that the Logan family had offended
a powerful person who should not have been provoked. Otherwise, how could a great family of Capital
City collapse overnight?



Even Old Master Logan was not spared and had to go through the internal disciplinary process.

Everyone was discussing who exactly Hutten Pharmaceutical and the Logan family had offended.

Wynn’s company was no exception. As soon as she returned to the company, she heard all sorts of
discussions.

“Hey, did you hear, Hutten Pharmaceutical is being investigated after they offended some big shot.”

“I know, my uncle was there that day,” one girl said excitedly.

“Really? What did he say? What did he see?”

“Ah, say it already, I’m so anxious! Who did Hutten Pharmaceutical offend?”

The group of employees chatted endlessly and made the girl feel very important.

“He happened to be doing a delivery that day, and he saw four battle tanks and some special guards
escorting a man and a woman into a car.”

The girl could hardly contain the excitement on her face as she continued, “Hey, do you know, they got
into the car that belonged to the underground king of Riverdale, Theo Zander! My uncle saw it with his
own eyes. Theo treated that man with the utmost respect!”

The group of people was stunned when they heard it.

“Stop bragging already. Battle tanks and special guards? Do you think it’s a movie?”

“That’s right. How could there be such a formidable person in this world? Isn’t that a power that only
comes with a special background?”

The group of people discussed endlessly.



“Oh, VP Johnston, were you at Hutten Pharmaceutical on that day? Do you know anything?”

When Mindy noticed Wynn coming through the door, she trotted up to her, face full of curiosity.

Wynn merely chuckled, flicked her on the forehead, and mock-glared at the gossiping colleagues. “Get
back to work. What are you gossiping about? Do you want to get your salary deducted?”

They knew Wynn was joking, so they grinned broadly before returning to work.

Wynn did not say anything else but turned around and entered the office.

As she sat on the swivel chair, she pulled out a business card with gold characters that wrote ‘Wallis’
from the drawer. She held it in her hand, lost in thoughts.

Very soon, she put the card back into the drawer again.

Would she be able to find the woman from that night in any shops with the name ‘Wallis’ in Riverdale?

Did she know everything about Philip?

Wynn abandoned the idea of finding out information about Philip because if she really did it, it meant
that she placed no trust in him.

Back to Philip.

He just stepped out of First Palace and was carrying the food prepared by the maid in his hand. He
was about to head to the hospital to visit Mila.

Suddenly, he heard a shout from behind.

“Hey, Philip, what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be at the hospital?”



Philip turned around quickly and saw Martha with another two elegantly-dressed middle-aged women
approaching him.

Martha looked confused and bewildered. She took a second look at the huge and luxurious villa behind
Philip.

What was this wimp doing at Longford Park?

Philip was also taken aback. He did not expect to see Martha here.

What should he do?
