Chapter 2906
However, when he got to the door, he found it tightly locked.
"What's the meaning of this?" Philip asked with a frown, his eyes with a hint of chill.
He came to Mystic City firstly because of Wynn and the Lovelace family, secondly because of the Larson family's secret vault, and thirdly for the secret treasure of the ancient sage. As for the internal battles of the Heavenly Court, he was not interested and did not want to get involved at all.
Who knew what people existed in the Heavenly Court?
Besides, according to Lord Ludo and the information he found, the Clarke family broke away from the control of the Heavenly Court and developed on its own before it grew to such an enviable scale.
Was it possible that the Great Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court did not bear a grudge toward the Clarke family or his father?
Lord Ludo put down the wine glass, showed off her proud figure, bit her lip, winked her beautiful eyes, and said, "Don't you have any thoughts about me at all?"
Philip was taken aback. Seeing Lord Ludo like this, he immediately shook his head and said, "No, you're not my type"
Hiss!
The atmosphere instantly became awkward!
Lord Ludo's swaying hips immediately froze. She stared daggers at Philip, stomped her foot fiercely, and shouted, "Hmph! Men are all scoundrels, saying one thing but thinking something else! Philip Clarke, I'm telling you today that you must become my fiancé whether you agree or not! It's just for seven days! After everything in Mystic City is over, we shall go our separate ways!"
After saying that, Lord Ludo took out a pistol from the drawer, pointed it at Philip's head, and said, "You can either choose to walk out or be carried out in a body bag."
Philip helplessly clutched his forehead and shook his head.
What the hell was this? A forced situation?
"Lord Ludo, don't you have any other candidates?" Philip asked.
Lord Ludo said, "No. Only the Clarke family is worthy of me. I don't want to see anyone else at all."
She was quite haughty too. Philip thought about it. The door was locked, and a gun was pointed at his head. Although he could escape from this place, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble if he forced his way out.
Thus, Philip sat down and asked, "Tell me what you mean."
Lord Ludo put away the gun and said, "It's very simple. The radical faction will send someone to Mystic City. He's been pursuing me, but I don't like him. He's the future heir of that faction and the eldest grandson of the radical faction's Great Heavenly King. He's held in high regard and is one of the candidates as the future successor to the Heavenly Court. I want you to pretend to be my fiancé and work with me on certain occasions and under certain circumstances."
Philip raised his eyebrows and said, "That is to deliberately anger the other party, right?"
Lord Ludo was startled before she said, "You can say that, but it may be more dangerous than you think."
"And you still want me to pretend despite the danger?" Philip grumbled.
Lord Ludo said, "Don't worry. After everything is over, you and I will have nothing more to do with each other."
"How can I trust your words? What if your suitor finds someone to assassinate me later on?" Philip asked.
Lord Ludo smiled slyly and said, "With your strength, are you still afraid of being hunted down?"
