When Philip saw this scene from the side, he frowned and asked, “Uncle Horace, what exactly is Third Mother’s background? Why is Desmond so afraid of her?” Horace smiled and said, “Phil, I don’t blame you for not knowing your third mother’s identity. All I can tell you is that your third mother's last name is Tsar.” Her last name was Tsar? Suddenly, Philip trembled and asked, “Could it be that Third Mother is…” Horace nodded and said, “You guessed it right. Who else in this country would dare to use this last name? She’s the Imperial Preceptor’s younger sister, Aria Tsar.” The Imperial Preceptor’s younger sister? Philip gasped. In the past, it was always his identity that made others gasp. Today, it was his third mother’s identity that made him gasp. His third mother was actually the Imperial Preceptor’s younger sister! No wonder Desmond dared not do anything to her. Here, Desmond’s forehead was full of cold sweat. He looked at the third madam standing in front of him
The branch family’s memorial hall quickly fell silent at this question. Everyone’s eyes focused on Philip who asked that question. This kid was really too cocky! He actually dared to make use of the third madam’s identity and status to demand an explanation from the chieftain! He was playing with fire! With cold eyes, Wade and Desmond turned to Philip and shouted gravely, “Insolent boy! The branch family has given up pursuing your accountability, yet you still dare to say such arrogant words and ask the branch family to give you an explanation?” “That’s right! You simply have no respect for your elders and hold no regard for the chieftain’s prestige!” “Chieftain, just look at this impudent child. How dare he say such things? I think we shouldn’t let him off so easily!” All of a sudden, everyone rallied! On the other hand, Philip was calm. From his eyes, it could be seen that he was determined to cause a fuss! Since his third mother was here, what else did he have to
Aria frowned, turned to Philip, and said, “That's enough! Stop fooling around. Otherwise, your father will definitely chastise you when he comes back!” “Third Mother, I know what I’m doing. I’m grateful that you came to rescue me, but there are some things that I can’t give in to! The branch family has gone too far this time! Today, either I die or the branch family must apologize!” Philip said sternly with a burst of anger in his eyes. At this moment, Aria looked at Philip’s resolute face and that stubborn temper. She suddenly felt a little lost. This child had the same temper as his father back then. Once he made up his mind, nothing could change it. Then, so be it. Aria turned around and looked at the angry Christian. She said, “Christian Clarke, as the third madam of the main family, I’m now warning you not to cross the line recklessly! He’s the eldest young master of my main family, and even more so, the heir. You’re not qualified to use the family discipline on him!
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the purple-gold token reflected a dazzling cold light. The moment this token was taken out, Christian, who was standing at the entrance of the memorial hall, widened his eyes as his breathing became rapid. After that, without another word, he knelt on the ground and said, “Greetings to the grand elder.” Instantly, all the elders and people in charge of the branch family, as well as the young masters and young ladies, turned to Horace and bowed deeply. “Greetings to the grand elder.” For a while, these words resounded throughout the branch family’s memorial hall! Philip also trembled when he saw the purple-gold token in Horace’s hand. His third uncle actually got hold of the grand elder’s token. Behind him, all members of the Griffin Army knelt on one knee and said with bowed heads, “Greetings to the grand elder.” Their cries were more majestic and imposing than those people from the branch family. Like rumbling thunder, the sound e
Aria turned her head, looked at Horace disapprovingly, and said, “And you! Do you want to cause trouble with him too? Do you know what kind of place the branch family is? If Christian really had the intention to kill today, who would’ve been able to stop him?” Horace looked a little sullen and said, “But Aria, I did ask for the grand elder’s token, didn’t I? Besides, nothing happened.” “Say it again!” Aria coldly scolded. Horace was like a schoolboy who had made a mistake. He turned to Philip and accused him, “Why are you so stubborn? Why couldn’t you hold back a little? You just had to go and cause such a big fuss! Apologize to your third mother right now!” Philip felt helpless. He knew that his third mother loved him. “Third Mother, I’m sorry. I know I was wrong.” Philip lowered his head and said. Then, he took a step forward, pulled Aria’s delicate arm, and said, “Third Mother, don't be angry. I won't dare to do it again next time.” With that said, Philip even wanted t
Philip was dumbfounded at Dr. Garfield Gates’ words. Wynn had a hidden illness? She only had three years left to live? How was this possible? “Dr. Gates, are you sure?” Philip looked a little unhappy. If not for the doctor’s superb medical skills, he would have gotten someone to give him a bashing! Dr. Gates nodded with a look of regret and said, “Young Master Philip, there’s no reason for me to lie to you. Young Madam’s body is very special, indeed.” Philip frowned, and his heart was in turmoil. His breathing became very rapid and tense. Was Dr. Gates telling the truth? Wynnie… How could she have only three years left to live? “Dr. Gates, what the hell is going on here? How can she have a hidden illness? She looks fine to me,” Philip asked. Dr. Gates shook his head and narrowed his eyes. Through the window, he glanced at Wynn who was guarding Lydia at the bedside and asked Philip, “Young Master Philip, let me ask you. Did the young madam show signs of hemorrhaging
Dr. Gates sighed and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Finally, he said, “Young Master Philip, have you ever heard of something called the golden blood in this world?” Philip abruptly reacted and said, “It has something to do with golden blood?” Dr. Gates nodded and said, “Young Master Philip, truth be told, 20 years ago, I was fortunate enough to have encountered a patient with golden blood. That patient’s condition was very similar to the young madam’s. She underwent two childbirths and had a hemorrhage during her second delivery. Later, her blood flow collapsed and her body quickly deteriorated. All vitality in her blood essence was lost. In less than three years, the patient passed away and left two children behind. “I have visited famous doctors and read various ancient books, but there’s no treatment for this disease. It can be said that for people with golden blood, regardless of men or women, the blood flow in their bodies will collapse at a certain age
After pondering for a moment, Dr. Gates said, “Multidew Herb.” Multidew Herb? What kind of medicinal material was that? After hearing this, Philip's entire face trembled as he inquired, “Dr. Gates, what medicine is this?” Dr. Gates shook his head, put his hands behind his back, and explained, “Young Master Philip, I don’t know this medicine either. It’s just something recorded in an ancient book. It’s said to be made from the juice of a hundred kinds of herbs that has absorbed sunlight and moonlight. It takes 3,000 years to form a plant. Then, the plant is taken and pounded into medicinal dew.” Dr. Gates raised three fingers as he said that, his face full of helpless distress as he shook his head. Philip did not feel well after hearing this. Was there really such a thing in this world? It sounded more like a plant from a fairytale. The plant needed 3,000 years to grow? The history of this country was only 5,000 years. “Dr. Gates, was this recorded in an ancient bo
