Philip looked at everyone coldly and imposingly. Following his scrutiny, no one dared to raise any objection.
Leon clapped his hands at this moment, stood up with a smile, and said to the subordinates behind him, “Men, bring Patriarch West to treat his injuries.”
Then, he walked to Philip’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and addressed the crowd, “Everyone, this is the new member of Cherry Villa. Please welcome him!”
After saying that, Leon clapped heartily while sparse applause was heard from the crowd. However, Philip said, “Villa Master Jefferson, I didn’t agree to join Cherry Villa. I’m here to look for someone.”
Leon smiled and said, “Philip, don’t worry. The Miss Johnston you’re looking for should have already gone back.”
“Gone back? With whom?” Philip was anxious and frowned.
Sure enough, Wynn had gone back.
Leon motioned for everyone to continue the conference before he walked out of the main hall with Philip and said, “Philip, the person who brought Miss Johnston here is a young man whose strength can be said to be on par with yours. Such a person is naturally welcomed in Cherry Villa. They came here to get something.”
Philip frowned and asked nervously, “What?”
Leon raised his eyebrows, looked at the stars in the sky, and said with a sigh, “It’s an item left here by Mr. Lovelace back then. If I’m not mistaken, that young man should be someone from the Lovelace family, and Miss Johnston is most likely related to them too.”
‘Mr. Lovelace?’
“Villa Master Jefferson, that Mr. Lovelace you mentioned, could it be Grant Lovelace?” Philip asked with a frown.
Leon turned his head, scrutinized Philip seriously, and said, “Do you know him?”
Philip got his answer. Then, he shook his head and said with a smile, “No, I just heard about him from the elders in my family.”
Leon shook his head in confusion and said, “I’m not sure either. No one dares to investigate the Lovelace family incident. However, there are rumors that before this incident happened, Mr. Lovelace once went to the Gentleman Court and had a secret meeting with the court master for up to two hours. After that, things started to happen to his faction. The Gentleman Court may know something about it.”
Gentleman Court?
Benny Larson?
Philip frowned, thought for a while, and said to Leon, “Villa Master Jefferson, I have some personal matters to deal with, so I’ll take my leave now.”
Leon smiled and said suddenly, “Philip, please wait. I have a request and I wonder if you’ll oblige.”
