Winner Takes All novel Chapter 49

In the evening.

Jack Hughes finished his work early.

He was having a date with Amber Knight at night. It was their first date, and Jack took it seriously.

Even though Amber didn't mind about his past, it was hard to imagine that Jack still rejected her.

There were always new beginnings in life.

One shouldn't lose faith and keep themself isolated after a failed relationship.

Amber took their first date seriously too.

She finished her work early to tidy up and get dressed up.

However, she wasn't aware that Josh Ellis sneaked into her office after she left work.

Josh carefully looked around to make sure no one was around before he slipped two pills into Amber's drinking water.

After wandering around in the bars looking for women for years, he was able to get that drug from some reliable source.

Ever since he had that drug, he had never missed capturing girl that he fancied.

Two tablets were enough to take out someone until the next day.

He shook the cup carefully to make sure the drugs had dissolved.

"Amber, don't blame me."

After that, he quietly left the office.

When Amber returned, she didn't notice anything unusual.

She looked at the time and felt that it was still early. Subsequently, she drank the water from the cup while looking at the paperwork.

Very soon, she felt dizzy.

"Am I too tired?"

Amber was puzzled as she massaged her head.

Her workload in the past two days was tremendous. She was brainstorming and finding all sorts of ways to help DT solve the issue.

She still felt dizzy after resting for a while. Instead, the dizziness had gotten worse.

Soon, she felt fatigued. Her energy was drained out.

Amber took out her phone to message Jack, "Jack, I… I'm so tired."

Ding!

Jack replied, "Where are you? I'm ready to pick you up."

Amber smiled.

This workaholic wanted to pick me up in advance?

Jack didn't even have a car. Amber should have been the one to pick him up.

But she replied, "I'm at EnRich building materials company."

On the first date, it was apparent Jack was taking it seriously.

It made sense that the boy would pick up the girl.

Amber wasn't going to humiliate Jack just because he didn't have a car.

Right after she replied Jack.

Creek...

The door of the office was pushed open by Josh.

Josh smiled as he walked up to Amber, "Amber, you're still working?"

"Ya... I feel a little tired."

Amber waved her hands. The dizziness grew even more intense.

"All the staff are off work. It is just you and I in the office."

Josh smiled and said, "Why don't I send you back?"

After that, he didn't care if Amber was willing or not. He just picked Amber up and walked her out.

Amber resisted instinctively. However, she had no more strength to do so as she fell directly into Josh's arms.

Sniffing the smell of fragrance from Amber, Josh became excited. Amber was helpless and depressed.

He should be the one to have such a gorgeous lady.

Instead, George Hughes was the one who had her.

"Let me go…"

Her words calmed Josh down.

His expression was gloomy and hostile at the same time. He didn't bother about what Amber said as he continued walking her out.

Amber was not a fool and not like those rich bimbos. She was smart.

She knew that she was drugged. That was why she was so tired.

She was being set up!

Amber was panic, and Josh wasn't listening to what she said. Luckily, her phone was still on the WeChat interface, where she was messaging Jack.

Then, she video called Jack...

Jack walked out of the DT company.

He was confused, "Why is she at the EnRich building materials company?"

Out of a sudden, a video call came in.

Jack answered.

A blurred and shaky image displayed on Jack’s phone screen.

Jack was utterly stunned.

He kept quiet and frowned as he stared at the phone screen.

Amber was moving but in a very odd position. Jack could vaguely see a person holding her up.

Something was wrong!

Jack's mind went wild.

He hastily stopped a taxi and quickly muted his phone. He growled at the taxi driver, "Quick! Go to EnRich building materials company immediately!"

The taxi driver was taken back as he hurriedly drove off.

Pah!

Jack threw the one thousand yuan from his pocket to the driver's console.

"Hurry up! I'm going there to save someone!"

"Oh, crap!"

The taxi driver's facial expression changed drastically. He stepped on the acceleration pedal and sped off.

Jack sat on the passenger seat as he stared at his phone screen.

Although he muted his phone, he could hear the other party's voice.

He was trembling as he breathed heavily.

Something must have happened!

Otherwise, Amber wouldn't have sent such an odd video call.

Jack didn't know why Amber was at Enrich building materials company, nor did he know what happened to her.

As a matter of urgency, he had to get to her side immediately.

To prevent any danger that might happen.

"Where are you sending me to?"

Amber's breathless voice sounded from the video call.

Jack was on tenterhooks when he heard that.

"Tyson Hotel."

Josh's voice was heard.

Jack was infuriated. He became utterly mad.

He recognized it was Josh from the voice. Jack knew what he was up to when he heard him saying "Tyson Hotel".

"Touch my woman? You want to fucking die!"

The words that came out from him sent chills down to the taxi driver's spine.

The taxi driver wanted to comfort him. He glanced at the phone screen and looked at Jack's face.

He gave up and drove even faster.

No man would allow his woman to be hurt!

Snap!

A sudden bang was heard, and the phone screen was displaying the company ceiling.

The phone dropped.

Jack became even more anxious, "Please send me to Tyson Hotel now."

At that time, it was too late to stop Josh at the EnRich building materials company.

There was still a great chance for him to stop Josh at the Tyson Hotel.

On the way, Jack was breathing heavily. The stare in his eyes was like a beast which would devour someone.

His phone was clacking as he squeezed it.

However, he managed to compose himself as he informed Brent regarding the matter.

With Brent around, Josh would get beaten up!

Finally, Tyson Hotel appeared in sight.

With a crunch!

The taxi driver drifted and brought the car to a stop at the main entrance of Tyson Hotel.
