The solemn bell rang throughout Clarke Manor.
All members of the Clarke family, who were either dressed in black suits or long black dresses, knelt on
the ground and bowed in respect as they made their way to the memorial hall. At this moment, time
slowed down infinitely.
Looking down from a high altitude, rows of people could be seen standing up and kneeling down. This
scene lasted for more than ten minutes before everyone arrived at the main entrance of the memorial
hall.
This place was full of gilt black tiles and yellow walls. It was very majestic. From a distance, it looked
like a palace-very profound and solemn.
Three rows of people stood at the entrance of the memorial hall at this moment. They were all the
elders of the law enforcement hall. At the forefront, an old figure stood with his hands behind his back.
It was the oldest living person of the Clarke family, the grand elder of the law enforcement hall!
He stood there dressed in plain clothes, while the rest of the elders of the law enforcement hall stood
behind him.
The members of the main and branch Clarke families stopped and knelt in front of the memorial hall’s
entrance. Then, the old man from earlier stood on one side and shouted, “Kneel and bow. The
ceremony is complete. All rise!”
With that said, all members of the Clarke family got up and quietly stood in place with their heads
lowered. They were waiting for the grand elder to say his piece. The grand elder just stood on the steps
like that, his weather-beaten eyes sweeping across all members of the Clarke family before his gaze
fell on Philip and Wynn.
Following that, he reprimanded, “You caused such a big commotion outside even before the ceremony.
How disgraceful!”
This was a rebuke to all members of the Clarke family. At once, not only the main family but the branch
family also lowered their heads again. They did not dare to refute.
After that, the grand elder’s eyes fell on Philip again as he asked, “Little monkey, what happened
outside just now? Did you break Hansel’s hands?”
At that question, everyone from the branch family gave Philip a gloating side-eye.
Very good!
The grand elder seized the first opportunity to chastise Philip. It seemed that the rumors from the other
day were true. Philip had brought his wife and daughter to see the grand elder, who then flew into a
rage and threw them out.
Now, it seemed that the grand elder was going to use Philip to establish his authority.
However, instead of admitting his mistake, Philip unexpectedly raised his head arrogantly and looked at
the grand elder on top of the steps while saying, “Yes, I broke his hands.”
Hearing that, the grand elder frowned and asked, “Why? He’s your sith granduncle, your elder.”
Philip glanced at Wynn next to him and said blandly, “Because his eyes are not clean. He showed
murderous intent to the young madam and young miss of the main family. According to the family rules,
he should be punished.”
“Well said.”
The grand elder said solemnly before asking, “In that case, should you also be punished for breaking
Levi’s legs?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the mocking and gloating smiles on the faces of the branch
family only intensified.
Wade stepped forward in front of everyone in the branch family and shouted, “Grand Elder, you must
bring justice to Levi and the branch family! Levi just went to the main family to invite the young madam
to visit the branch family but he got his legs broken by Philip, the arrogant and rebellious boy. If the
branch family is not given an explanation for this matter, I’m afraid it will be difficult to convince others.”
The grand elder coldly looked at Wade who stood out and said, “Stand down! I know what to do!”
Wade frowned, gritted his teeth, and stepped down. Then, the grand elder re-examined Philip. He
raised his hand and an old man behind him handed him a black cane as thick as half an arm with both
hands.
