“Wynn, why did you come looking for me so suddenly?”
At the same time, Giada walked into the guest hall with a gentle smile on snazzynovel.com face. She stood in front of Wynn and obstructed snazzynovel.com view.
Giada looked like another woman compared to when snazzynovel.com was in the hall.
Wynn saw the two figures vaguely before they disappeared into the night and out of the manor.
“Aunt Giada,” said Wynn politely.
Giada grabbed snazzynovel.com arm and sat down on the sofa. She asked snazzynovel.com servants to prepare some desserts.
Over here, Philip and Tim had already exited the manor. Philip turned around suspiciously. He thought snazzynovel.com heard Wynn’s name being called just now.
He shook his head, opened the car door, and got in.
Back to Wynn. She was still feeling uneasy, especially when snazzynovel.com was facing Giada.
This woman was Philip’s stepmother, and Philip had some misunderstandings with her.
“Wynnie, come, freshly made desserts. It’s a specialty in the South River District.”
Giada smiled warmly as snazzynovel.com picked up a slice of green cake to hand it to Wynn with snazzynovel.com slender fingers.
Wynn nodded slightly and took it politely. She said, “You don’t have to trouble yourself with this, Aunt Giada.”
Giada lifted snazzynovel.com eyebrow and looked behind snazzynovel.com to dismiss the servants.
Giada and Wynn were the only people left in the guest hall now.
Giada was well-mannered and classy. She exuded confidence and arrogance. She looked at Wynn with a smile and asked after opening snazzynovel.com mouth, “Are you here so late in the night because of Philip?”
It was true that Wynn was starting to suspect him.
Giada squinted and looked at the nervous Wynn. She already had a plan.
“Aunt Giada.”
Wynn contemplated for a while and asked, “Philip told me that his family are restaurant owners. Is it really that simple?”
Wynn’s eyes were wide. She looked at Giada, anxious to know the answer.
“Correct.”
Giada smiled warmly. “Philip is right. We are indeed restaurant owners, but…”
Wynn was shocked. There was indeed something else.
“But the restaurant we own might be much grander than what you have in mind. As for why Philip refuses to tell you, maybe he’s worried that you won’t be able to accept this. The reason I’m in Riverdale now is to talk business and also to ask Philip to go back with me. Back then, snazzynovel.com fought with his father and ran away from home. His father has been feeling remorseful all these years. Now that his father is sick, snazzynovel.com doesn’t have much time. I hope you’ll help me talk to snazzynovel.com so that snazzynovel.com goes home to visit his father.”
Giada said flatly. Her tone was indifferent.
She wanted to force Philip to go back to break the boundary protocol that had been set for so many years. That way, snazzynovel.com could continue with snazzynovel.com plan.
Wynn heard that and shuddered. Her father-in-law was sick?
“Alright, I’ll talk to him.”
Wynn said while getting up, “Aunt Giada, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading home.”
Giada got up as well and said, “I’ll ask someone to send you home. If you have time, you can come anytime you want. Just treat this as your home.”
Wynn smiled and pushed snazzynovel.com hair behind snazzynovel.com ear. She said, “Aunt Giada, if you have time tomorrow, come have dinner at my place. I can arrange for Philip to talk to you.”
“Alright, thank you so much, Wynnie.”
Giada was smiling happily. She walked over and hugged Wynn. She looked like a benevolent mother.
Before snazzynovel.com left, Wynn asked, “Aunt Giada, this manor…”
Giada crossed snazzynovel.com arms across snazzynovel.com chest and looked at the huge manor. She said, “It’s bought with family money. It’ll belong to you and Philip in the future.”
Clank!
Wynn was stunned.
This manor was so extravagant, and it was bought by Philip’s family?!
How much did it cost?
‘Alright, Philip, you rascal. How dare you hide this from me?’
Wynn was slightly mad. She turned around to leave the manor. Then, snazzynovel.com drove the Mercedes-Benz back to the villa.
…
“Wynnie, where did you go?”
Philip had come back before Wynn. When snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com walk through the door, snazzynovel.com approached snazzynovel.com with a smile.
However, Wynn glared at snazzynovel.com coldly and pulled snazzynovel.com into the bedroom.
Slam!
The door was slammed shut.
Downstairs, Martha came out of snazzynovel.com room sneakily and tiptoed upstairs. She leaned against the door of their room to eavesdrop.
“Philip, do you know where I came back from?”
Wynn sat on the huge bed. She was fuming as snazzynovel.com asked with an icy expression on snazzynovel.com face.
Philip was confused and asked with a stupid grin, “Where?”
“Aunt Giada’s place.”
Wynn crossed snazzynovel.com arms across snazzynovel.com chest and looked at Philip heatedly. She was looking at the change in expression on his face.
Philip was shocked, but then, snazzynovel.com chuckled and asked, “Why did you go looking for snazzynovel.com all of a sudden?”
Oh no!
Why did Wynn go to Giada?
Was snazzynovel.com getting suspicious of him?
What did Giada say to Wynn?
Philip was beyond frantic.
