The First Heir/

Chapter - 4891

Chapter - 4891

Everyone was surprised by Philip's sudden appearance and shuddered in fright. They fell into an awkward silence, at a loss for what to say.

Philip should not be listening to their topic of discussion.

Everyone had not discussed how to break the news to Philip when he returned.

Seeing their awkward expressions, Philip became even more confused. He caught hold of Aslan as he was about to sneak away.

"What's going on? Spit it out," Philip urged. He knew that something big had to be happening.

Aslan turned to the others for help but no one knew what to say.

Seeing the fearless Aslan looking so hesitant, Philip smiled brightly.

"Hey... What are you afraid of?" Philip teased.

After much deliberation, Aslan finally told Philip the truth. This matter could not be hidden for long.

But Aslan was confused to see Philip was not angry as if everything was within his expectations.

Everyone panicked at his stoic face. They thought he was heartbroken with despair. Everyone gathered around anxiously to console Philip.

"Philip, please don't be sad. Maybe Aslan was mistaken!"

"That's right. We believe that Wynn won't step out of the line!"

Everyone trusted that Wynn was not that kind of woman.

Philip shook his head helplessly at their anxiety. "Don't worry... This isn't the first time. I'm used to it by now."

Philip had encountered this situation when he first returned, but he did not expect history to repeat itself.

On the contrary, Aslan and the others looked at him in dismay.

What a pitiful man...

After learning Philip's story, Aslan lost his temper and wished he could beat Martha up.

"What annoys me the most is this woman doesn't know how to count her blessings. She's enjoying her life because of you. What gives her the right to throw her weight around?"

Aslan wanted to take action, but Montel stopped him. "Let Philip take care of it. No matter what, you're an outsider. You can't interfere in their family affairs!"

Montel was quite well-versed about worldly affairs, relatively better than the half-baked Aslan.

Although Aslan was upset, he finally chose to compromise.

Indeed, Philip had the final say while Aslan was just a bystander. He could not step out of the line.

In fact, Philip did not plan to interfere at all. He never took these things to heart because he trusted Wynn wholeheartedly.

Meanwhile, Martha was talking to Wynn about this in the room. She was furious at Wynn's indifference.

"Why can't you understand? I'm doing this for your future. Do you really want to suffer for the rest of your life with this man? As practitioners, you have nothing to fear, but what about me and your dad? We're just ordinary people!"
