Chapter 2760

The tide had turned. The outcome had been decided!

Philip glanced at Anton, patted hint on the shoulder, and said, “Very good. You’ll get what you want.”

Hearing this, Anton was so excited that he knelt and shouted to express his loyalty, “The Jones family

swear our allegiance to you and will serve you to the death!”

When the other heads saw Anton kneeling, they hesitated. When Philip looked over, most of them

knelt.

“We await Mr. Clarke’s order!”

The shouts continued endlessly. However, some stubborn people remain standing.

They looked angrily at the kneeling heads and yelled, “You guys are shameful! A disgrace! How did the

Northern disciple families turn out this way?”

Philip looked at those people with admiration.

He said, “Patriarchs, I admire your courage to remain standing. To be honest, I hold no grudge against

the Northern disciple families, nor do I want to cause any grudges. Merging the North and the South

will be of great benefit to the North. I don’t know why you’re so hostile to the South, but what I want to

say is that everyone is a citizen of the country. Our goal should be to stand together and jointly defend

against external forces. If you really think about the future of the disciples in the country, you should

understand the reason I’m doing this…”

“Merging the North and the South is something that l have to do. There’s not much time left for us, and

disputes are happening everywhere outside. If we don‘t work together, we’ll repeat the same mistakes

from a hundred years ago. Do you really want to see the downfall of this country and let your family

members die at the hands of foreign enemies?”

Philip gave a long speech, and the standing family heads lowered their heads at this moment.

One of them said, “Mr. Clarke, it’s not that we disagree with the merger, but we’re worried that the

North will be suppressed by the South.”

Philip said, “You can rest assured that the North and the South are one family. Here, I can promise

everyone that the North and the South will share the same resources and walk hand-in-hand!”

Hearing this, the remaining family heads looked at each other and said with a nod, “Okay! We believe

you!”

At this point, the affairs of the North were settled.

When Philip returned to the manor, he saw Leon who came.

“Villa Master Jefferson, from now on, the burden on your shoulders will be heavier,” Philip said jokingly.

Leon knelt on the floor with a thud and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, I’ll never fail you!”

Seeing this, Philip quickly stepped forward, helped Leon up, and said, “Villa Master Jefferson, what are

you doing? Please stand up! You’re an elder!”

Leon stood up a little woefully and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, I’ve been waiting for 20 years before

my wish finally have come true. Grant will surely be very gratified in heaven! You have done what he

failed to accomplish!”
