Chapter 699
The first young master of the branch family? Levi Clarke! What was he doing in Riverdale? This was an extremely terrifying
enemy. His strategy, courage, connections, and brains could rival Giada Wallis. Most importantly, he was humble and could curry
favor with many people.
Furthermore, he was the heir to the branch family, the one and only. Even his father had once commented that he was the most
talented freak that the branch family had ever produced in the past 100 years. If it was not because he was born into the branch
family, he might even be appointed as the heir to the main family. Philip was flustered and quickly said, “Wynnie, I’ll return
immediately!” Levi Clarke, what the hell was he planning to do? Why did he go looking for Wynn? Before he could think too much
about it, Philip took a taxi back to the hospital, ran all the way into the ward, and saw Levi sitting on the sofa, chatting with Wynn
cheerfully. The atmosphere was harmonious without any signs of tension at all. “Phil.” Wynn waved at Philip, a sweet smile on
her face. Levi had his back toward Philip, and at this moment, he put down the fruit knife in his hand before handing the peeled
apple to Wynn. Then, he got up, turned to look at Philip with a gentle smile on his mouth, and stretched out his hand. He spoke
gently, “Philip, it’s been a while.” He looked exactly like a chivalrous gentleman. This was Levi Clarke, a man with a graceful

He had sharply-defined eyebrows, thin lips, a high nose, and twinkling eyes.
People would inevitably want to be close to such a delicate man. It was also because of his
appearance that Levi was friends with many children of wealthy families. Nevertheless, Philip was
aware of Levi’s personality. This was not a man one could discern through his appearance alone. Even
when he was a child, Philip was forced into confinement by Levi because of a toy.
He was punished to recite the family’s rulebook for three days. From that day on, Philip already knew
that this man was very ambitious! The branch family was not his target. It was the entire Clarke family!
To quote what Levi had said to Philip when he sent him away from Arcadia Island back then, what he
wanted was the entire Clarke family, and the branch family was like a cage that imprisoned Levi. Why
was Levi only worthy of being the heir to the branch family while Philip could become the heir to the
main family who would lead the entire Clarke family? “What are you doing here?” Philip asked coldly,
his tone unpleasant. Levi’s hand was stretched out mid-air. He retracted his hand without
embarrassment and smiled. “I’m here to visit Wynn. Is there anything I can help with?” “Just leave
Riverdale.” Philip still remained stoic. Wynn interrupted at this time. She could not understand why her
husband’s attitude toward Levi was so bad.
“Philip, what are you doing? Speak properly.” Philip frowned as he looked at Wynn without speaking.
Levi was unperturbed. He smiled and said, “It’s okay. Philip and I will go out for a chat.” After that, Levi
walked out of the ward first with a smile on his mouth. Philip was just about to follow when Wynn
reminded him. “Philip, talk to him properly. He’s your cousin, after all. Don’t scowl at him.” Philip
grinned broadly and said, “Okay.” With that, he stepped out of the ward and looked at Levi with his
hands in his trouser pockets. He was standing in the rest area, looking out the window. With a distance
of two or three meters between them, Levi took the initiative to speak. His eyes were full of smiles that
could not be concealed as he said,
“Wynn’s very beautiful and charming. When are you going to bring her home?” “You don’t have to worry
about my affairs,” Philip replied with a chill in his eyes. Levi chuckled and said, “Philip, don’t treat me
with such animosity. We’re brothers, after all. To live in peace and lead the future of the Clarke family
together is what the main family and the branch family hope to see.” Hehe. “Live in peace?” Philip
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsnickered, his eyes full of disdain. He said, “Levi Clarke, I already knew what kind of person you are
since I was six. Just because of a toy that my father bought for me, you used your dirty methods and
got several elders from the law enforcement hall to punish me with an unreasonable charge. Do you
really think we can still live in peace after that?” No matter how pretentious his appearance might be,
Levi could never conceal that filthy intent of his. Upon hearing this, Levi raised his eyebrows as his
expression finally changed. His eyes no longer contained gentleness but was replaced with cold intent.
He smiled and said,
“Philip, you’re always hostile to me, but I truly wish to live in peace with you.” He continued with his false pretense. Philip said, “Is
there anything else? If not, I’d suggest you go back. Riverdale isn’t a place for you.”
Philip’s words expressed his dissatisfaction. Levi could tell immediately.
He laughed and said, “I’m still planning to visit my little niece.” Hearing this, Philip frowned, and the dormant chill in his body
finally exploded. He stepped forward, grabbed Levi by the collar, and warned coldly, “Levi Clarke, I’m warning you, don’t attempt
any dirty tricks! What you have now is just the branch family! As for me, I’m no longer the kid back then who you could bully
easily. I’m the heir to the main family and I’ll always dominate you!”
