Chapter 2009


    Philip rolled his eyes at Lydia and said, “Go outside on your own for a while. I have something to say to


    them.”


    Lydia was not an ignorant girl either. She agreed and went out joyfully while yelling, “In that case, I’ll


    look for Sister Wynn.”


    Philip smiled and said, “It’s up to you.”


    After Lydia’s figure left his sight, Philip sat on the sofa and took a sip of the tea made by the servant.


    Theo and Victor stood aside respectfully at this moment, not daring to make a sound.


    Philipughed and said, “Why are you guys so uptight? Sit down, I have something to tell you.”


    Victor and Theo nced at each other before they sat down but still sat properly like elementary school


    children.


    Philip did not pay attention but served them tea instead. Theo and Victor epted it with fear and


    trepidation, not knowing if they should drink it or not.


    Who would have expected that the mighty Theo Zander of Riverdale and Master Bell of Uppercreek


    would behave like schoolchildren at the moment?


    Philip did not dy any further and went straight to the point, “I’ll arrange for someone to send you


    back tomorrow. After you return, do a few things for me.”


    When Theo and Victor heard these words, their expressions became serious.


    “Young Master rke, what do I need to do?” Theo put down the teacup and asked seriously.


    Philip said, “You stay in Riverdale and continue to send people to monitor Martin and Bernard


    Johnston. If there’s any movement, take them down directly. You don’t have to be concerned about my


    reputation! In addition, arrange for someone to contact Nigel Lambert in Cloudside. Tell him to take an


    inventory of all the manpower and properties in Cloudside and wait for my instructions.”


    Hearing that, Theo nodded and said, “Okay, I understand.”


    Philip hummed and said, “Also, take good care of Anne Foster and Tiger Zander in the hospital. I won’t


    bring her to the ind for the time being. The situation here is a little tricky and I need to deal with


    some problems. When the time is almost ripe, I’ll ask you to pick her up. As for Tiger, depending on the


    situation at that time, Fulton may bring him back personally. When the timees, you can just release


    him.” .


    Theo nodded as he held up his teacup and took a sip.


    “What about me? Mr. rke, what do I need to do?” Victor asked quickly, not to be outdone.

    Philip said, “On the Uppercreek side, you and Hoyt Luther can take inventory of the properties and


    forces that you can use. Then, do business as usual while awaiting my instructions.”


    Victor nodded and said, “Understood.”


    After that, Philip got up and wanted to leave when he suddenly turned around and asked, “By the way,


    did you find out anything new about Bowen Roy as I told you to?”


    With a gloomy face, Theo shook his head and said, “Young Master rke, Bowen Roy has been


    missing for several months with no news at all as if he has disappeared into thin air. Should I send


    more people to follow up?”


    Philip shook his head, took a breath, and said, “Forget it, you may stop.”


    He did not really intend to find out anything either. After that, Philip left this ce.


    After Philip left, Victor breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked, “Bowen Roy? Is that the former lord


    of the Penhart region?”


    Theo smiled and said with a nod, “That’s right.”


    Victor gasped and said, “Unbelievable. Mr. rke has even taken Bowen under hismand?”


    “Don’t you know who Young Master rke is by now? Just this family, just this ind…” Theo said


    smugly.


    Victor thought for a while and nced at this courtyard. Yes, this courtyard alone was more luxurious


    and magnificent than several of his houses in Uppercreek. When he returned, he would hire people to


    renovate his house ording to this style.
