Winner Takes All

Mr. Ward and Brent helped to support Jack as they were leaving the Bamboo Grove.

The gray haired man was waiting on the bridge.

"You should bring young master to the hospital as soon as possible."

"Thank you, sir."

Jack smiled towards Minister Mable, "Sorry to disturb you."

He was someone even Aiden had to follow, Jack didn't want to offend him, he was better off with another friend instead of another enemy.

As Minister Mable was watching the three of them leave, his gaze deepened.

A while later, he smiled, "Who would have thought, that the Young Master of Hughes family would be hidden on my property. Seeing Old Master Hughes attitude today, I guess the young master will soon be very successful."

Leaving the Four Impressions Club.

Brent was driving the Rolls Royce as if it was a race car.

They had wasted a lot of time in the Bamboo Grove while Jack's wound was continuously bleeding, his face had lost all colors, if they didn't get him into a hospital as soon as possible, everything would point to a disaster.

Madam Hughes had the intentions of reading Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Purva Pranidhana Sutra one hundred times, and leaving Jack to bleed to death in the meantime, this was ruthless!

The good news were that they arrived at the hospital in time and the doctors fixed Jack up, he was going to be okay.

In the ward, Jack looked at Mr. Ward and Brent, who were both looking nervous, and smiled, "I am alright, why are you both still so miserable?"

Mr. Ward and Brent exchanged a look, but didn't speak.

Jack knew that he was different, if something happened to him, even if Mr. Ward and Brent could regain his father's trust, they would end up in a disaster.

So he just changed the topic, "What do you think, is this going to be over now?"

His father had chased away Madam Hughes in his dominant way.

He didn't even care for the family rules, daring to blackmail Madam Hughes with death.

Jack could not understand this Hughes family at all.

A family that was above all, that could ignore all rules, and view a normal human being as unimportant as ants.

Would Madam Hughes really accept her defeat against Jack's father?

"I don't think so."

Mr. Ward's gaze was deep and troubled, "The Hughes family is very difficult, there is Madam Hughes, who is above all, the elite children who are the heritage of this family and all waiting to take over the position of the family's leader, and in between, there are a bunch of factions who work against each other."

No wonder!

Jack laughed helplessly.

In just a moment, Jack was visibly moved.

The Hughes family was so complicated, and yet his father sent Mr. Ward to him.

Not only to save his mother, but also to allow him to have a chance to be an heir to the family.

This had a deep meaning.

TM Villa District.

Aiden was holding his cigar, standing in front of the window like a statue, staring into the night view outside.

The thick smoke coming from his cigar was lifting into the air.

On the floor were the fallen ashes.

He has been standing there like this for almost an hour.

Knocking on the door.

It pulled Aiden back into reality.

"Sir, Madam Hughes has taken her private jet and left." His butler told him from behind the door.

"She left?!"

Aiden's face changed, and asked worriedly, "How is Jack doing?"

"Jack ripped his would open before he entered the Four Impressions Club, now he has already left, and been admitted to the hospital for treatment." His butler said.

Whoosh!

Aiden felt as if hit by lightening.

He took off his golden framed glasses, and rubbed his eyes, "Did, did nothing happen at all? Did Jack get any other injuries?"

With his experience, of course he knew what it meant when Jack opened his wounds before entering the Four Impressions Club. But coming out without any further injuries meant for him to be alarming.

His butler said, "No."

"That's not possible!"

Aiden's eyes widened in surprise, his body softened, and he fell into his chair, "How is this possible? This is impossible..."

He repeated again and again, as if he was hysteric.

Madam Hughes came to this city with such huge turmoil, and even Killian had told her that Jack would be coming, for him to take care of him.

Madam Hughes was clearly here to send punitive forces against Jack, she wanted to take revenge for Killian.

And now, Jack was doing well in the hospital.

Madam Hughes had left the city in a hurry.

This must be a joke!

"Sir, I have made sure that I got the right message, there have been no mistakes." The butler said, as if trying to calm Aiden down with a bucket of cold water.

In the lights, he was sitting in his chair, his eyes were as deep as a black hole.

After a long time, he started to laugh bitterly, the put on his glasses, and said, "I guess this time I made the wrong bet."

Then he yelled to his butler, "From tomorrow on, annul the supply boycott for DT."

The following days were calm.

Everything was done in an order.

But the fact that all the suppliers had annulled their boycott towards DT was giving Jack mixed feelings.

He knew that this was the doings of Aiden, his choice of riding on the fence.

He didn't really care, Aiden could do what he wanted, as long as Aiden didn't end up on his side.

He had been unfaithful once, so he would never trust him again.

Before, Jack was still feeling thankful towards Aiden, because he really had helped him.

Then Killian appeared, and if it wasn't for his mother, he would have taken the risk and forced him out of his way.

Later, if it wasn't Killian, who had taken it on with him in this city, Aiden would never have soft hearted towards him. With the annulment of the supply boycott resulted in the fact that the suppliers Aiden had helped find now came to DT again. Jack had asked Corbin to decline those immediately, then sent out a message on their website.

They announced that they would cooperate with EnRich in all their West Shantytowns projects. With that, they successfully denied all the small suppliers who were looking for their chances. The days passed quickly, and it was the last day of the month.

In the ward.

Corbin came with a pile of documents from the office, and was just reporting to Jack.

"Jack, are you sure you want to start the pre-sales of all three estate?"

When he finished his report, Corbin asked worriedly.

One company was not allowed to start the pre-sales of multiple estates at the same time.

But similar to DT, who was having their estates in the same district, were quite often.

It was a big risk to take, because that would cause the buyers to shift their focus-

"I am sure."

Jack nodded his head, "To open them at the same time is to get the funds as quick as possible, even though it might lower the popularity, I have already prepared myself, I don't think it will sink all too much with what DT has achieved so far."

"Alright."

Corbin didn't ask more, he looked at Jack's injury, "So, the ceremony tomorrow..."

Jack looked down, and said with a smile, "This will not get in my way, I will be there in time, you can go home now."

After Corbin left.

Jack knitted his brows, deep in his thoughts.

"Master Hughes, what are you thinking about?" Mr. Ward asked.

Jack raised his brows, "Tomorrow is already next month, Amber should be back with her parents."¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
