Chapter 171: Philip's Assurance

Demi looked at the group of teenagers with complicated eyes, remembering their prominent status, and then looking at Philip's completely changed body and appearance, she could only vaguely see a trace of her childhood appearance from the long white and golden hair.

Of course, those blue eyes are still pure and make people feel peaceful and peaceful.

Demi sighed inwardly, but her anxious heart calmed down a little.

"Since you like it, then I'll make a little more tomorrow and send it to you. I've asked you to go to the house to sit and sit a long time ago, but I'm afraid of disturbing your game, I'm very tired. ”

The two sat on the couch, and Philip could take a closer look at Aunt Demi.

After a few years of not seeing, many wrinkles have been added to the corners of her eyes, and her skin is a little saggy, which is exactly the mark that the years have added to her after she turns fifty.

Although the clothes on the body are gorgeous, the style is a few years ago, and the necklace around the neck looks very familiar.

Hearing her affectionate, but faintly cautious and flattering tone, Philip's heart was extremely uncomfortable.

Once upon a time, the presence of this woman, like his second mother, accompanied him through his carefree childhood.

Philip has lost count of how many times he and Anna sat together, snatching each other's delicious meals from Demi's own hands.

How many times did he and Anna get chased and beaten by Demi with a whip because they were naughty, and they fled in embarrassment in the huge lord's mansion.

The entire Lord's Mansion was filled with his memories.

It's a pity that this woman still blames me, or blames Catherine more.

Otherwise, how many times would she refuse Catherine's help over the years, and later, like Anna, she had a lot less contact.

"Aunt Demi, if you're not busy today, come and have dinner with me. This hotel's cream-baked shrimp balls are well done, as well as the red lion fish roe ordered from Lok Ma Lake, which just arrived today, you can judge whether it is fresh or not. ”

Philip saw that Demi had something to do, so he took the initiative to invite.

When Demi heard the red lion eggs, she felt a little sad and relieved, this child is telling me that he will not forget everything in Fallen Horse Town?

She's so smart, just like my Anna, who can always guess other people's minds.

She gladly agreed, and went to the dining room with Philip, where she sat in the corner.

The two of them whispered to each other as they savored the delicious food.

Demi asked, "Is Catherine okay?"

Philip said with a smile: "She is very good, in addition to reading and drinking tea every day, she takes care of the two little ones."

If it weren't for their drag, I would have returned to the imperial capital to see you and Anna a long time ago.

It's a pity that I didn't bring a family photo to the emperor this time. ”

Demi smiled: "Your mother was sometimes in a hurry to take care of you at the time, but now it has become two, I'm afraid it's even more inexhaustible."

In any case, she was lucky to have both children and daughters. ”

Philip laughed and gave Demi a thumbs up, signaling her assessment to hit the nail on the head.

"Aunt Demi, in fact, Mom, she misses you very much, and Anna, every time she makes clothes for me, she estimates Anna's figure and prepares two sets.

It's just that she also knows her needlework, but she really can't handle it, so she didn't send it. ”

Philip stopped at the point, that hurdle is not so easy to overcome, human nature.

If the Hamptons were doing this for a stranger, it would be easier to accept, people, it's hard to explain.

The matter between their best friends should be solved by Catherine herself.

Demi just smiled faintly and nodded.

Philip continued to adjust the atmosphere of the conversation: "As a result, when I arrived in the imperial capital this time, I found that it was impossible for Anna to wear those clothes.

Who would have thought that after a few years of not seeing, Anna would change so much. As he spoke, Philip made an exaggerated gesture.

Demi, who was on the other side, laughed, slapped Philip's hand a few times in anger, and said, "Just allow you to be so handsome, and not my Anna to become pretty?"

At this time, Demi had already adapted to the strangeness of not meeting again, and felt a lot more comfortable, and somewhat regained a trace of the confidence of the lord's wife back then.

Hearing that Philip took the initiative to mention Anna, he sorted out his words and told Philip what happened in the afternoon.

"Smack"

Before Demi finished speaking, Philip's lungs were about to explode, and the crystal cup in his hand was directly pinched and exploded under his huge force, and the golden wine spilled on the table.

Philip looked back and waved his hand at the crowd watching here, indicating that it was okay.

But his iron-blue face and the bruises on his forehead all showed how angry he was at this time.

The monitoring of the Stewart family and Ladd is not so rigorous, after all, this is the imperial capital.

Therefore, after they closed the door, it was impossible for Philip to know what was going on inside, so he could only wait for the side knock to inquire afterwards.

Philip couldn't have imagined that that Ladd would dare to be so rampant, and as he feared, he had involved the innocent Anna.

Thanks to Demi's decisiveness, it would have been too late for him to learn all this from his men a few days later.

The stupid Ladd is just a pawn that is hung on the line and pulled.

Whether the other party was warning or had other plans, Philip frowned and fell into deep thought.

Demi's mood is up and down, suffering from gains and losses.

When Philip was furious, she had some relief and secret joy in her heart, and a trace of worry.

After all, that Ladd is still his titular son and the heir to her husband's title, and Philip won't kill him.

When she saw Philip frowning and pondering, she was a little disappointed, afraid that Philip would be jealous of the other party's backstage and would not help, after all, this is the imperial capital, not Gaokan City.

Philip didn't think much about it, he noticed Demi's expression, and said sincerely: "Aunt Demi, you grew up watching me grow up and know me very well.

I was both Anna's friend and her guardian knight.

I swear by the Snape family that this will never change.

So please rest assured, I will take care of this matter to the end and protect Anna from any harm.

The specifics are a bit complicated, and I'll need a little time to figure it out.

And you also know that we are competing, I'm afraid it's not very convenient.

So in the meantime, I'll arrange for someone to protect Anna and find out the news.

When the game is over, this matter will definitely be resolved once and for all. ”

Afraid that Demi would think too much, he didn't explain the grievances between the Blazer family and his own family.

Demi was naturally happy to get the answer she wanted, and her whole heart was put down.

After a few more words, Demi took her leave, and Philip took her all the way to the hotel door before returning to his room.

Sitting on the couch, Philip was a little worried, Bruce pushed the door in, sat next to him, and asked, "What happened just now?"

Philip pulled out a cigarette, handed it over, and replied, "The Blazer bastard stuck his paw behind us......"

Sure enough, Bruce, who had a much hotter temper than Philip, blew up directly, and vowed to bring all the men and horses to kill him.

Philip dragged him down on the couch and said, "If you do, you've fallen for their tricks." ”

Bruce's eyes rolled, and he immediately figured out the cause and effect, and the two brothers were sad for a while.

The other party learned smartly this time, and he played Yangmou.

First, through Ladd, Anna and Demi were connected, and then through Demi, the message was passed on to Philip.

Even if Demi doesn't come, then they're sure there's another way to let Philip know.

If Philip or Bruce were furious and really desperate to kill the past, I believe that the other party would have been ready for it a long time ago, and what awaits them will be a bigger trap.

The best conceivable outcome would be for the brothers to miss the rest of the game, especially Filip.

This is a heartbreaking loss for the Green Tree Vine Intermediate Military Academy.

After all, they haven't done anything, and it's just a small Ladd who rushes to the front, and Stewart is the upright owner.

You can accuse him of misconduct and vanity, but it's not a crime, it's just that everyone has their own ambitions.

Besides, what kind of thing is Ladd, what's the point of picking him up.

And if Philip doesn't do anything, then Anna will really be controlled in the palm of the other's hand.

After all, the Stuart family lives in the Red Mountain District controlled by, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and they fight with them here, and the Snape brothers who came from afar are really not enough to see.

Such a ruthless and sophisticated, dilemma scheme, Philip guessed who came up with it, and that Wade probably didn't have such a deep way.

In the Red Hill vigilante, in's office, the Pitt father and son were drinking tea and chatting about the Snape brothers.

"Father, do you think the brothers will be fooled? Wade said through gritted teeth, his arms still hanging from his chest, a dull ache.

frowned and glanced at his son, and said hatefully: "Where did you come from, it's that Philip himself."

Do you think you're stupid and others are just like you?

Why don't you admit that there are many people in this world who are smarter than you.

When you recognize this, you will be able to truly mature. ”

Wade pursed his lips, although he refused to admit defeat, but he also knew his performance off the field in the riding assessment, yes

It's a little naΓ―ve.

After all, I am used to living a smooth life and underestimate others.

took a sip of the fragrant hot tea and said to his son, "You have been honest lately, just stay in the vigilante and wait for the brothers to fall into the net."

The identity of the squad leader you get is not an ornament.

Even if you're not here, you'll have to stay here for a few days once in a while to make a network.

As for the factory thing, let that Battier wait, those things are damn things, and I can't hurry.

You just need to maintain the relationship with the second emperor and grandson, and you don't have to worry about the rest.

In addition, that little girl named Anna will definitely not allow you to do it, there is a seminary, not Hongshan District. ”
