Winner Takes All

In a deep trance, Shirley felt like dreaming.

What a coincidence!

This Jack Tommy described was nothing close to the one she met in the bank.

But the stern face she saw just now was so impressive.

She was thoroughly humiliated that night. How could she forget that face?

“Oh ya, I forget you’re now completely strapped.”

Tommy didn’t sense Jack’s grimace and continue to mock him. “Too bad, huh? If you’d just let your mom pass, you wouldn’t have to divorce my sister. Now you lost everything.”

Jack clenched his fist with veins clearly seen on his arms.

Ever since he married Katherine, he had always been mistreated in the Parry family. Moreover, Katherine sided with her family, which gave him an even lower status.

Things didn’t get better when he became the deputy general manager of the real estate agency over the three years. He even supported the Parry family financially so often. But the Parry family was still not satisfied.

Before, Jack used to forbear all of it for the sake of Katherine.

But now, he couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Shirley, come look at my useless ex brother-in-law,” Tommy waved at Shirley with a sneer.

When Jack saw Shirley in the car, he unclenched his fist. All his rage disappeared. He even felt funny.

Useless ex brother-in-law?

With a peculiar smile, Jack took a slanted glance at Tommy. There was a signal of sympathy in his eyes.

With staggering footsteps, she got off the car. Her eyes fixated on Jack.

Looking at Jack’s smile, Shirley blushed. She thought of the night a week ago.

At the same time, she was restless.

Would he tell Tommy what happened that night?
