Should he pick up the call? Philip was confused. He called Agnes and told her what was going on. He said, “Muddle through this.” Agnes nodded and motioned with her hands to signify ‘okay’. She answered the call gracefully,

“Hello, who’s this?” On the other side of the phone, Wynn was clearly shocked. She did not expect the other party to be a woman. Plus, her voice sounded nice. However, at the same time, she let out a sigh of relief. It was not him. Had she been overthinking? Hehe, right. Would she not know what kind of person Philip was? She pathetically came up with that illusion despite that. “Hello, Mrs. Clarke. I am Wynn Johnston. Maybe you don’t know me, but I was saved in Celestial Club that day thanks to you.” Wynn had prepared a speech on how to thank her. “Oh, it’s fine. I’m just happy to help.

She smiled at Philip and tilted her head. “How did I do?” Philip’s face fell. Agnes was taking things into her own hands. However, he could not say anything about that. He could only shake his head and sigh helplessly.

was shocked. She lost her train of thought instantly. She bowed and apologized. “Mr. Clarke, I… I thought you had a fight with Miss Johnston and that’s why…” Agnes’ eyes were watery.
