“What do you mean by that, Jean?”
Wynn asked, puzzled.
Juan scoffed. “Philip Clarke is no good-for-nothing at all, you’ve all misjudged him! He’s actually very wealthy, because he’s the young heir to the Capital City Clarke Group!”
As Juan said that, Wynn’s expression did not change at all.
So Juan knew about it too.
Juan was quite exhilarated, the corners of his mouth curved into a smile. He looked at Wynn in excitement, waiting to see the surprise on snazzynovel.com face.
However, snazzynovel.com was destined to be disappointed.
“I’ve known that for a while now, Juan. Philip told me.”
Wynn said calmly.
Juan was stunned. He had been utterly shocked when snazzynovel.com first found out.
So what was going on here?
Wynn barely reacted at all. She had known for a while now?
Well, f*ck!
Juan had waited for so long and prepared so much, all so that snazzynovel.com could reveal Philip’s identity to Wynn and then show snazzynovel.com how Philip was no match for him, even as the young master of the Capital City Clarke Group!
Now, things had gone wrong with Juan’s master plan.
Wynn already knew.
He could not show off to snazzynovel.com any longer.
What a pain!
“You knew?”
Juan asked, feigning shock.
Wynn nodded. “Philip told me not too long ago. Although Philip’s family could not help us through this crisis, snazzynovel.com had a friend who invested three billion into the company and saved our skins.”
A friend?
Three billion!
Juan was even more perplexed now. According to the information snazzynovel.com gleaned from his investigations, Philip had been cut off from the Capital City Clarke Group’s resources. So what was going on now?
Impossible!
Philip was nothing without the help of his family. How did snazzynovel.com manage to secure a three-billion-dollar investment for Beacon?
That was no small sum!
What went wrong?
Half an hour later, after Wynn left, Juan returned to his car in frustration.
After a moment, snazzynovel.com made a call and said coldly, “I don’t care what you do. Get closer to Philip and earn his trust. I have to know who snazzynovel.com really is!”
Upon hanging up, Juan looked up at the tower where Beacon was based. Speaking through gritted teeth, snazzynovel.com said, “You will be mine, Wynn Johnston!”
As for Philip, snazzynovel.com was now heading toward the bus stop alone when snazzynovel.com happened to bump into the beautiful Nina Jacques. She was also waiting for the bus.
She just went into the company, though, so why was snazzynovel.com here now?
“Are you waiting for a bus too, Nina?”
Philip greeted her.
She turned to face him, snazzynovel.com angelic face instantly assaulting Philip’s senses.
She truly was a modern-day Aphrodite. Even here at the bus stop, snazzynovel.com attracted every gaze around.
Thankfully, Philip’s heart only had space for Wynn alone. Nina may have left some ripples in his eyes, but his heart was unaffected.
When Philip greeted her, Nina turned to snazzynovel.com and gave snazzynovel.com a wonderfully soothing smile.
Pushing snazzynovel.com hair behind snazzynovel.com ear, snazzynovel.com said, “What a coincidence! Are you waiting for a bus too?”
After the previous incident with the pervert, Nina’s attitude toward Philip had changed drastically. This was actually snazzynovel.com first time interacting with a man without feeling awkward.
“Yeah.”
Philip replied. The two of them just stood there side by side, apparently at a loss for a topic of conversation.
“You…”
“You…”
Their voices spoke in unison. They exchanged a look and a smile.
“Thank you for last time.”
Nina spoke first, snazzynovel.com face slightly rosy. She looked sweet enough to eat under the twilight rays.
“If you really want to thank me, buy me a cup of coffee.”
Philip nodded at the cafe downstairs. He actually wanted to find the chance to ask Nina about snazzynovel.com tattoo.
However, it was quite a personal question and snazzynovel.com was finding it difficult to broach the topic.
Nina blinked and smiled. “Sure, but somewhere else. I remember there’s a cafe with really good coffee somewhere nearby, let me take you there.”
The two of them headed for the cafe Nina recommended, but unfortunately the place was closed for the day, so the two of them just stood outside and comforted each other.
They were already out here, so they did not mind spending a bit more time. There was also a mall nearby, so Nina suggested that they went shopping, then snazzynovel.com could treat Philip to a meal.
No one was going to turn down such an invitation by such a beauty. Philip went window shopping with Nina.
To be honest, though, Philip’s heart was not in it. He just wanted to confirm something.
Something that had been on his mind for a very long time.
