Chapter 1149


    He smoked a cigarette, picked up the portfolio, and opened the seal. He saw a picture of his sister


    Hannah at the age of seven or eight. There was also detailed investigation data and many pictures


    attached.


    They were pictures of Hannah from the age of seven or eight, to the photo of the ident. Then, he


    saw photos of her when she was about 12 or 13 years old with a face full of fear and trepidation. At 15


    or 16 years old, the young girl was shyly making a victory pose at the camera. Atst, he saw the photo


    of the beautiful girl when she was 20.


    Philip’s hands trembled more as his eyes became moist.


    After so many years, the guilt in Philip’s heart was infinitely magnified at this moment.


    “She… is really alive?”


    Philip looked at the photo of 20-year-old Hannah in his hand, his eyes already very moist.


    Rick hummed and said, “Alive.”


    After getting a positive answer, Philip could not speak for a while.


    He was very calm.


    No agitation could be seen at all.


    However, at this moment, Philip’s heart was like the calm before the storm.


    Alive.


    His sister Hannah rke was really alive.


    It was good that she was alive.


    “Can we contact her?” Philip asked again.


    Rick shook his head. With some helplessness in his eyes, he said, “It’s difficult. ording to the


    information, it seems that the youngdy is not willing to return to the rke family, or rather, she’s not


    willing to see you and anyone rted to the rke family.”


    “She hates me and the rke family.”


    Philip sucked a mouthful of the cigarette into his lungs, and it felt a little spicy.


    However, it was only through this would he be morefortable.


    Back then, if not for him, his sister would not have been met with the ident.


    After so many years, Philip always thought that he had harmed his sister.


    He had been living in self-reproach.


    As a result, his sister had be a taboo topic for Philip.


    “Can you find out where she is now?”


    Philip was unwilling to give up.


    Rick looked at Philip, was silent for a moment, and took out a post-it note. He said, “This is the


    address, but Young Master, I have to remind you to be mentally prepared. The youngdy may not


    wish to see you. If you go like this, it may trigger her displeasure.”


    Philip looked at the post-it note in his hand—Merry Orphanage, Uppercreek.


    “I know.”


    Philip gripped the post-it note in his hand tightly and did not speak for a long time.


    An orphanage?


    How had his sister been all these years?


    Had she been bullied? Did she have friends? A boyfriend?


    For some time, many questions flooded Philip’s brain.


    In this world, apart from his father, Wynn, and M, she was the closest person to him.


    Philip did not know how to face Hannah, how to exin, or how to bring her back to the rke family.


    Midnight.


    Philip returned to the bedroom. Lying next to Wynn, he gently hugged her from behind and buried his


    head in Wynn’s hair. He took in the fragrance of her body, seekingfort.


    “What’s wrong?”


    Wynn tilted her head slightly and asked softly.


    “Let me hug you for a while,” Philip said.


    Rustling, Wynn turned around and hugged Philip. She could feel the slight tremor of the man’s body in


    her arms.


    He was crying.


    Philip was crying.


    “It’s okay, Phil, everything will be fine.”


    Wynn gently patted Philip’s back and said softly.

    “I… I don’t know how to face her. She’s still alive. She’s…”


    Philip said before stopping, the grievance in his voice sounding very distressing. At this moment, he


    was just like a big aggrieved boy.


    “Is it Hannah?” Wynn asked softly.


    Philip nodded.


    “Shouldn’t you be happy instead? Philip, look at me.”


    Wynn held Philip’s face, looked at him seriously, and said, “Do whatever you want to do and don’t leave


    any regrets for yourself. Of course, I can also go with you. No matter what happened between you and


    Hannah, I believe that after so many years, the only thing left between you is the rtionship between


    brother and sister. Blood is thicker than water and can never be separated.”


    Philip looked at Wynn, nodded heavily, and controlled his emotions before saying, “I’m going to


    Uppercreek tomorrow. Come with me.”


    “Sure,” Wynn responded.
