Chapter 715
The woman who got beaten held her head, her entire face red and swollen. She staggered to stand up
on her high heels. She could barely hear what Philip was saying.
“Let’s go!”
Jaden red at Philip vehemently before turning to Cynthia, threatening, “Cynthia, you’d better think it
over carefully. I’ll give you three days. If you want to know your mother’s whereabouts,e and look
for me!”
“Get lost now!”
Philip frowned and looked as if he was going to kick him again.
Jaden stepped back in fright and almost fell. He gave Philip a sullen look, pointed his finger at the
latter, and threatened, “You… Just you wait!”
After that, he quickly left with his people.
Watching as the group of people left the bar, Cynthia was relieved and said to Philip, “Thank you.”
Of course, Cynthia knew that Jaden had deliberatelye to find fault with her. If Philip had not
stepped in, she really would not have known how to deal with Jaden.
Three days… She needed to consider it carefully!
As she recalled all that had happened to her and her mother, Cynthia could not stop her tears from
flowing.
She covered her face as her emotions copsed. She squatted on the ground, buried her head, and
bawled!
Philip was frightened out of his wits, but he knew Cynthia needed to vent, so he did not intend to
dissuade her. He called out to the flustered waiter and asked for two sses of wine. He sat at the
deck and waited for Cynthia to finish her episode.
After a while, Cynthia finally stabilized her emotions. It was only then she got up and wiped the tears
from her eyes while looking at Philip who was sitting there nonchntly. She grabbed the cocktail from
his hand and finished it in one big gulp!
“Hey, that’s mine.”
Philip was upset but could not do anything about it.
“What are you going to do?” Philip asked.
She sat beside him, staring nkly at the men and women enjoying themselves in the bar on the first
floor. The events here did not affect the party downstairs. After all, such things were verymon in
bars, so no one paid attention.
“I don’t know, but I must find out the news about my mother.”
Philip nodded, thought for a while, and said hesitantly, “Perhaps I can help you.”
Cynthia turned her tear-streaked face at him, looked at Philip pitifully, and asked, “You? What can you
do?”
Philip looked at that forlorn little face and felt distressed as he said, “Beat him to a pulp and force the
words out of him.”
Hearing him, she could not help the chuckle from escaping. She rolled her eyes at him and said, “I
have my ns on this matter, so don’t worry about it. I don’t want to get you involved.”
Fine, this little girl was still that ice queen Cynthia Larson after all.
“Actually, in my eyes, the Larson family can easily be handled with one word. I can let Jaden reveal
your mother’s whereabouts willingly,” Philip said abruptly after hesitating for a long time.
The Larson family was his mother’s family. As the heir to the rke family, they needed to give him
some leeway.
He wondered how his grandfather was doing.
Cynthia turned to Philip and assumed he was joking. “Thank you.”
“You really don’t need my help?” Philip said, “Are you really sure you can handle a viin like Jaden?
What if he does something bad to you when the timees?”
She rubbed her hands, obviously not confident. Then, she turned her face and said with a touch of
sadness, “Why don’t you apany me then?”
Philip chuckled. “Yes, it’s always better to have more people. If he wants to do anything to you, I’ll
protect you.”
“Mm.”
Cynthia nodded heavily. Everything that happened tonight was so sudden that she was unprepared
and defenseless.
Philip noticed that she was still a little worried and joked, saying, “Don’t worry. With such a handsome
guy like me to protect you, no one can hurt you.”
This got her to chuckle as she rolled her eyes at him. She said, “You’re really narcissistic.”
Philip shrugged but did not deny it.N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
Looking at his confident demeanor, her tension gradually dissipated. Having him by her side always
made her feel at ease.
Cynthia felt that it was strange. She and Philip obviously belonged to different worlds, but why did he
always appear by her side when she needed it the most?
“I’ll go back first. Have a seat and order any drinks you like. It’s on me.”
Cynthia got up with a tired look on her face. After experiencing the events just now, she needed to rest.
It was still a big blow to her, after all.
“Okay. Remember to call me when you’re prepared to go over there.”
Philip was unconcerned.
She spoke to the waiter before she left.
Philip sat alone at the deck on the second floor, carefully savoring the cocktail served by the waiter.
Even the ss had been reced with an exquisite crystal ss, which reflected the beautiful glow
under the colorful lights.
Leaning back on the leather sofa, he took a light sip of the special cocktail. He looked at the wanton
and boisterous crowd below and felt that their lives were too blissful.
Philip already had ns for Jaden in his mind. He needed to take care of this problem as soon as
possible.
Savoring the wine in the ss, Philip gradually became a little drunk.
When he squinted to look at the men and women dancing below, he identally saw a silhouette. It
was a woman. A beautiful woman!
Wearing ck hot pants and a ck tube top, she had exquisite and sharply-defined facial features as
well as a piercing gaze!
The sudden eye contact between Philip and the woman caused a massive thump in his heart.
Goosebumps were spreading all over his body!
When he tried to look for her again, the figure was already lost in the crowd!
It was strange!
Why did this happen?
Philip stood up abruptly and searched for the figure frantically but could not find that woman no matter
how he searched.
“That’s odd… Very odd. Why do I have the weird feeling that the woman looks like Hannah rke, my
sister?”
