Philip ended the call and fell into deep contemplation.
Arcadia Island had no record of a visitor from the Larson family. There were only two reasons for this. First, an internal Clarke family member assassinated the person sent by the Larson family and destroyed the visitor records. Second, the person sent by the Larson family did not leave Fernvale at all and was assassinated by the Larson family.
While thinking about it, Philip called George again and asked, “Who was in charge of the visitor records back then?”
George immediately investigated and replied, “Young Patriarch, the person in charge of the visitor records was someone belonging to Madam Giada. What happened?”
‘Giada Wallis?!’ Philip frowned.
Was this matter really related to Giada?
Seeing the changing expression on Philip’s face, Cynthia asked, “Philip, what’s the matter? Did you find something?”
Philip raised his eyebrows, stroked his chin, glanced at Cynthia and Hogan, and said, “If I’m not mistaken, the person sent by my uncle back then was either assassinated by Giada Wallis or an internal Larson family member.”
Hearing this, Hogan frowned and muttered, “Giada Wallis? The Wallis family of the Golden City?”
Philip nodded and replied, “That’s her.”
Hogan raised his eyebrows, put his hands behind his back, recalled carefully, and suddenly said, “If I remember correctly, Giada did come to the Larson family back then. As First Uncle was unwell, the person who met her was Silva!”
Hiss!
Cynthia and the others gasped. It seemed that they had found a clue.
Philip nodded and said, “That must be it. Silva should have reached some kind of agreement with Giada.”
Boom!
Hearing this, Hogan was shocked and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, are you saying that Silva will send someone to kill the grandmaster?”
Philip nodded and said, “Based on my interactions with him today, Silva isn’t a kind person. He must have the means to be the head of this family! Moreover, Grandpa is involved in so many secrets. Silva will either keep guarding him or attack! As for the secrets that Grandpa is guarding, maybe he already knows some.”
“No! It can’t be! Silva will never do that!”
Hogan could not believe it. That was the grandmaster, no matter how cruel or underhanded Silva might be, he would not lay a finger on the grandmaster.
