Winner Takes All novel Chapter 103

At the moment, the Parry family was shrouded in jubilance and the atmosphere was really lively.

In the afternoon, when Katherine and Killian both left TM Villa District, they didn’t return home immediately. Instead, they went somewhere nearby to make some purchases.

In Katherine’s eyes, this was Killian’s first time going to her house.

His meeting with her parents was something not to be taken lightly.

It was her luck that Killian was a generous person who spared nothing in buying the gifts.

Hey had bought hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, ganoderma. At the same time, he also prepared a jade bracelet for Elissa.

The total cost of these gifts easily exceeded one million yuan.

Katherine had a big smile on her face with the way things were developing. She was even surer that her chance encounter with Killian had enabled her to meet her true love.

That day, Killian drove his Lamborghini and entered the compound of the Parry family house. His appearance caused a stir in their tiny community.

When Kieran and Elissa saw Katherine emerged from that Lamborghini, they were completely stunned.

Although this couple never really understood cars, but Tommy knew everything about that car.

Tommy exclaimed, “This car costs at least five million yuan!” His words caused both Kieran and Elissa to feel a throbbing sensation in their head.

Soon after, Killian and Katherine carried their hefty gifts and entered the house. They placed those presents on the table while also handing Elissa a bank card which had a credit limit of a million yuan.

Everything came crashing at them ceaselessly, and both Kieran and Elissa were starting to doubt the authenticity of everything. It was as if they were in a dream word, which felt very unrealistic.

This feeling pegged them for the entire afternoon.

They were only able to fully recognize the reality of things by the time the sky finally turned darker in color.

Katherine finally got herself a super second-generation rich!

The Parry family was going to prosper!

On the dining table, there were all kinds of delicacies.

The cost needed to prepare these delicacies alone amounted to Kieran’s salary for a month, but the members of the Parry family didn’t feel that this was too outrageous.

It would be a joke if they couldn’t do this much at least!

After all, the gifts brought by Killian probably amounted to an exorbitant price of two million yuan. There was nothing wrong about spending a month’s worth of his salary to treat Killian to a good meal.

Kieran, Elissa and Tommy were all excited beyond words. They could feel their heart pounding furiously against their ribcage.

Ever since Katherine had divorced with Jack, the whole Parry family was seemingly plunged into a boiling pot of water. There was not a day when they could live their life peacefully ever since.

However, with Killian’s arrival, they had an illusion that all the dark clouds hanging over them were suddenly being swept away, revealing the clear skies beyond them.

Kieran, Tommy and Elissa were all enjoying the ancient wine brought by Killian.

The whole family was praising Killian mightily with their words littered with flattery and compliments.

As she watched them basking in such jubilant atmosphere, Katherine felt some tears welling up in her eyes. She was overcome with strong touching emotions at the moment.

They had finally left their turbulent days behind them.

Finally, she could also do something substantial for this family too, such as paying her due respects to her parents and assisting his young brother in his life.

All of this was possible because of Killian!

With such a thought in mind, Katherine’s tender body slipped into Killian’s embrace while her fine hands held on to Killian’s hands strongly. She spoke with extreme gentleness by Killian’s ear, “Killian, I’m really thankful because I met you. You must be God’s greatest present for me.”

“The same can be said about you.” Killian revealed a warm smile.

They looked pretty much in love with each other.

Elissa was grinning widely as she watched them cooing to each other. Her smile was so wide and her eyes had formed a crescent moon shape.

Kieran couldn’t stop letting out sighs of relief as he smiled inconspicuously with his head lowered.

On the other hand, Tommy seemed like he had forgotten about his grief for losing Shirley. His face was brimming with agitation at the moment.

They truly believed that after Katherine married Killian, their family would finally prosper and ascend to greater heights.

This was Killian’s first time visiting their house, yet he was able to fork out presents worth almost two million yuan. Even if Katherine didn’t contribute anything significant to the family in the future, they would still be able to rest easy for the rest of their lives.

“Killian, don’t blame me for being a busybody, but when you arrived with your car in the afternoon, there was a huge commotion out there.”

Elissa deliberately asked with the aftereffects of alcohol still existing in her system, “I heard from Tommy that your car cost at least five million yuan. Is that true?”

“Mrs. Tanner, you are Katherine’s mother. Why would I blame you for being a busybody?” Killian shook his head with a smile on his face.

Elissa was even happier upon getting his response.

Compared to Killian, Jack was just a nobody!

Killian was going to be Elissa’s perfect son-in-law!

The next second, what Killian said sent a thunderous shock to Elissa’s mind, “However, that car didn’t cost me five million yuan. It actually cost me more than seven million yuan.”

Elissa’s face displayed one of extreme astonishment upon hearing that.

Both Kieran and Tommy also had their mouths gaping.

Killian continued to smile faintly while explaining, “Since the car has been modified slightly, so the price is higher than normal but it’s not expensive anyway.”

For Killian, it turned out that seven million yuan was not expensive at all!

Oh my god!

“Mr—Mr. Hughes, so this price tag is not expensive for you at all?”

Tommy finally couldn’t restrain his excitement any longer as he spoke with trembling lips, “In terms of pricing, your car is equivalent to more than a dozen of my Audi.”

“Audi?”

Killian’s brows were knitted slight as he asked with a darkened expression, “How much does it cost?”

Tommy froze when he sensed the change in Killian’s expression. Did he say something inappropriate?

Anyway, he still answered him, “It costs around three hundred thousand yuan.”

Kieran and Elissa were both in a daze at that moment.

Elissa was the one who was able to come back to her sense quickly. She punched Tommy’s arm hard and seethed, “You rascal, what the hell are you saying?”

Tommy was at a complete loss.

Katherine was also racing to explain to Killian despite they all didn’t know the reason behind the change in Killian’s expression.

Nevertheless, they knew very well that Tommy must have said something wrong, judging from Killian’s expression.

However, before she could say anything, Killian suddenly smiled, “Tommy, you are Katherine’s little brother after all, and we would be family soon. That would mean that you would be my brother as well, but it’s too pitiful for you drive a car that only cost three hundred thousand. Come with me and choose a car for yourself tomorrow. You only need to consider the models that cost more than a million yuan.”

At that moment, it was as if a huge explosion had gone off in their heads.

One million yuan?

He was instructing Tommy not to consider any car that was priced lower than one million yuan?

Oh my god!

Katherine’s tiny frame jerked slightly and she could feel herself getting hotter and hotter for some reason. She wanted to just dig into his embrace right there and then.

Kieran had a shocked expression on his face and his heart was jumping wildly. However, the corners of his mouth inadvertently lifted.

On the other hand, Elissa was squeezing Kieran’s thighs under the table. Her nails were digging into his flesh so hard that a few visible scratches could be seen at first glance.

She was staring at Killian with stars in her eyes. She found herself unable to avert her gaze for a long time.

“Mr. Hughes, no, I mean, my brother-in-law, are you being serious?”

Tommy had sprang up from his seat at that moment and he was clutching Killian’s arms while dishing out his question with agitation.

Killian revealed a frown on his face probably due to Tommy’s aggressiveness and strength.

Elissa jolted and immediately hurled a pair of chopsticks on Tommy’s body, “You bastard, what are you doing?”

If this were Jack in the past, Elissa would turn a blind eye to Tommy’s actions at the moment. They would even join with Tommy’s assault on Jack if Tommy were to start a scuffle with him.

However, things were very different at the moment. Killian was the uber rich son-in-law in Elissa’s eyes! And the amount of wealth he possessed was certainly no joke!

“Mrs. Parry, don’t worry.” Killian’s frown disappeared and his face returned to his usual expression as he told Tommy, “I will come get you at eight in the morning tomorrow. You can think about what kind of car do you fancy, but remember that don’t even consider those that are priced lower than one million yuan. Those cars don’t suit you anyway.”

“Al—Alright, Killian. Thank you so much.” Tommy was so excited that his heart was almost jumping out of his chest.

After finishing up their scrumptious and satisfying meal, Killian stood up and announced, “Mr. and Mrs. Parry, the time is getting late. I will excuse myself now.”

“Dad, mum, Tommy, I’m going with Killian too.” Katherine also stood up.

Elissa immediately said, “Alright, stay safe when you are on the road. Katherine, take good care of Killian.”

As she said this, she winked at Katherine too.

Katherine was able to understand her signals and her face blushed instantly. She complained, “Mum, Killian was drunk now so he can’t drive at the moment. We will take a cab back.”

“Fine, it’s getting late now, you should go home now.” Elissa urged them on.

“Oh, right. Dad, mum, Killian actually lives in TM Villa District. I’ll invite you guys over if everyone has some free time to kill.” Katherine suddenly thought of something and she said this joyously.

Once again, Kieran, Elissa and Tommy all felt a thunder striking them and rendered them immobile on the spot.

Elissa recalled her bad experience at the main gate of that district and suddenly felt that all her grievances could finally disappear.

Those security guards had done her a good number. Now that her son-in-law was actually a resident there, she wanted to see the expression on those security guards’ faces the next time she went there.

As she mulled this over, Elissa had a victorious expression on her face. She nodded approvingly, “Fine, fine, fine.”

After Katherine and Killian left, Kieran suddenly said worriedly, “Kate has only known Killian for a very short amount of time. Isn’t it inappropriate to allow her to just go with him like that? It’s not going to look very good on her.”

He was a teacher, so it was natural that he would take her reputation into consideration.

However, as soon as he finished his words, Elissa pinched him hard and retorted, “What do you know? A rich son-in-law like him is something who usually only exists in our dreams. In contrast, shouldn’t we make sure that Kate is able to stick herself to him permanently? What if we miss out on him?”

“Dad, mum, am I dreaming now?” Tommy suddenly interjected.

“I have the same feeling.”

Elissa raised her eyebrows while asking Kieran, “Can you still feel pain?”

Kieran nodded in response.

Elissa’s eyes were shining brightly as she said longingly, “The Goddess of luck finally decides to bestow her grace on us. Katherine is the reason our family is going to become rich and prosperous in the future. Kate is really my good daughter.”
