Chapter 473
“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
her face. She stood in front of Wynn and obstructed her view. Giada looked like another woman compared to when she 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 her arm and sat down on the sofa. She asked her servants to prepare some desserts. Over
here, Philip and Tim had already exited the manor. Philip turned around suspiciously. He thought he 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
she 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 she picked up a slice of green cake to
hand it to Wynn with her slender fingers. Wynn nodded slightly and took it politely. She said, “You don’t have to trouble yourself
with this, Aunt Giada.” Giada lifted her eyebrow and looked behind her to dismiss the servants. Giada and Wynn were the only
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpeople 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 her 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, he fought with his father and ran away from home. His father has been feeling remorseful all
these years. Now that his father is sick, he doesn’t have much time. I hope you’ll help me talk to him so
that he 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, she
could continue with her 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 her hair behind her 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 she left, Wynn asked, “Aunt Giada, this manor…” Giada crossed her arms across her chest and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlooked 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, she drove the Mercedes-Benz back to the villa. …
“Wynnie, where did you go?” Philip had come back before Wynn. When he saw her walk through the door, he approached her
with a smile. However, Wynn glared at him coldly and pulled him into the bedroom. Slam! The door was slammed shut.
Downstairs, Martha came out of her 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 she asked with an icy expression on her face. Philip was confused and asked with a stupid grin, “Where?”
“Aunt Giada’s place.”
Wynn crossed her arms across her chest and looked at Philip heatedly. She was looking at the change in expression on his face.
Philip was shocked, but then, he chuckled and asked, “Why did you go looking for her all of a sudden?” Oh no! Why did Wynn go
to Giada? Was she getting suspicious of him? What did Giada say to Wynn? Philip was beyond frantic.
