The next morning. Philip personally came to the estate to pick Tiffany and Richard up. Since their destination was Whispering Winds that day. Tillany had made sure to get ready carly. She had just finished breakfast with Richard when Philip arrived.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Seeing how well Tiffany and Richard were getting along. Philip seemed visibly pleased. As they left the estate and got into the car, he couldn’t resist offering some advice. “Make sure you build a good relationship with Mr. Hampton. It’ll be nothing but beneficial for you in the future.”

“Alright.” Tiffany nodded, not arguing with Philip’s suggestion,

The car drove on for about half an hour before coming to a stop Tiffany looked out the window and saw a distinctive, elegant old mansion-not overly grand, but rich with history and charm. The plaque on the gate read “Whispering Winds” in bold, powerful script, giving the place an air of authority.

Philip stepped out of the car. Dressed in a white traditional suit, he looked energetic and sharp, his eyes clear and commanding. His face bore a serious and solemn expression Tiffany had never seen before.

As they approached the entrance, Philip waved her over. “Come on. Let’s head inside.”

Tiffany rubbed her nose, feeling slightly uneasy. ‘Is it just me, or does this feel like we’re here to challenge someone?’ she wondered. She didn’t voice her thoughts out loud, though. Instead, she followed closely behind Philip as they entered

The estate was breathtaking, like a lavish manor with an air of sophistication and grace. Despite its elegance, there was an undeniable sense of status and authority.

It wasn’t immediately clear what Philip’s role here was, but as soon as they stepped through the gate, surprised expressions greeted them. The people they encountered quickly greeted with respect.

“Director, you’ve returned?”

“Yes,” Philip replied indifferently, continuing on his way.

They must have been notified beforehand, as a dozen or so dignified individuals-pillars of the estate-were already waiting for Philip by a grand pavilion near the rock garden. As Philip approached, they all greeted him in unison, “Director”

Some looked at Tiffany curiously, and one of them asked, “Director. Is this young lady your

student?”

“Yes.” Philip chuckled, before dropping a bombshell. “And she’s also the future successor of Whispering

Winds

The group had been preparing to offer polite compliments, but upon hearing this, they were completely shocked. Their expressions were as if they’d been struck by lightning. “Director, you want a young girl to take over Whispering Winds? This decision is absurd!”

“Exactly! What does a girl like her know? There’s no way she can take on this position. I object!”

“So do I!”

The disapproving voices grew louder, and their looks toward Tiffany turned harsh.

Tiffany finally understood. Philip hadn’t brought her here just for a visit-this really was a challenge. And now, they’d stirred up quite a stormt

Amidst the chaos of objections, Philip shot a cold glare at the group and sneered. “Do I need your permission to make decisions? Don’t be ridiculous! I run this place, and I call shots. None of you get a say!” He then turned to Tiffany, saying. show you around” “Come on. Let me

Leaving behind the core members of the estate, whose expressions varied from shock to anger. Tiffany followed Philip. She asked. ‘Sir, I’m really not suited for this. I mean, L…

Before she could finish, Philip calmly interrupted, “Do you want to know what Whispering Winds really is?”

Tiffany wasn’t particularly interested, but she didn’t want to disappoint him, so she nodded, pretending to be curious. “Sure.

tell me.”

“Everyone knows that Whispering Winds is an institution built by literary scholars, renowned painters, and art masters. But there’s more to it-there’s a secret.”

“What secret?”

“The power of Traron City’s four great families rests in my hand. In other words, the director of Whispering Winds is essentially the leader of these families. Do you understand?”

Tiffany gasped. Just one of the four great families of Traron City alone had more influence than her own Kelley family, and here was this unassuming Whispering Winds, secretly carrying such weight-power enough to surpass them all. Who wouldn’t be tempted?’ she thought

For a moment. Tiffany wavered. But then she realized this wasn’t just some simple role-taking over this position would come with mimense challenges. She suddenly thought of something. “Is this why you told me to build a good relationship

with Richard?”

Philip simply smiled, not saying a word. Tiffany knew she had guessed right.

Richard’s influence was unmatched, and there was no one who could stand in his way. If Tiffany accepted this role, with his help, there would be no need to worry about the disapproval of the estate’s members or the four families

It all makes sense now… Tiffany thought as she asked, “But why me? Out of all people?” After all, she had no connection to Traron City or its powerful families. Aside from her relationship with Philip as his student, there didn’t seem to be any reason for him to choose her. Nothing about this added up.

Philip chuckled and found a seat, leaving the question hanging. You’ll find out in time.”

Tiffany sighed. “Are you just eager to retire, so you’re dumping all the mess on me?”

Her complaint made Philip laugh heartily. I knew I chose the right person. You even figured that out.”

But his laughter suddenly turned into a violent coughing fit. Tiffany immediately noticed something was wrong. “Sir…” Before she could help, Philip coughed up a mouthful of blood. It was thick and dark, a clear sign of a serious illness. Tiffany rushed to Philip’s side, taking his pulse, and the result shocked her. He had only three months to live.

For anyone else, this would’ve been the end. But Tiffany wasn’t just anyone-she was a Miracle Healer. Saving lives and extending life was something she could easily do. She took out a pill and handed it to Philip, lying through her teeth. Here, sir. This is a medicine I bought from Medicinal Haven.”

Just mentioning “Medicinal Haven’ made it clear that this was a life-saving remedy worth a fortune.

Philip looked surprised. “From Medicinal Haven?” After a pause, he waved his hand. “No, there’s no need. Life and death are out of our hands. Why fight it?”

Tiffany had seen many people desperate to live, but this was the first time she had encountered someone rejecting a cure.

“Sir…”

“I only have one wish left. Can you help me fulfill it?” Philipeyes softened, his smile warm and gentle.

Tiffany felt a wave of bittersweet emotion wash over her. She hadn’t spent all that much time with Philip, and in the chaos of her busy schedule, she even forgotten to report to the studio s promised. When she finally showed up the next day. Philip had been annoyed-understandably so-laut despite his frustration, he had indulged her without hesitation. The way he spoiled her, it was as if he were treating her like his own grandlaughter.

With a deep sigh, she said, “I’ll do it. But you have to take this pill or I’m not handling this mess”

Philip laughed heartily. “Alright, alright, I’ll take it,” With that, he took the pill from Tiffany’s hand and swallowed it.
