Winner Takes All novel Chapter 157

In the early morning,

Jack arrived at the pier as scheduled.

Katherine and her families were going to leave by ferry.

What happened in these two days made Jack very exhausted, and now he was in a terrible mood.

The Parry family was so greedy and disgusting.

Jack looked gloomy and he rubbed the bank card in his pocket.

If this 100 million yuan could completely solve the problem, he didn’t mind giving the money to the Parry family.

The end of the month was the time for him to propose to Amber, and he would not allow any accident to happen during this period.

Jack’s cell phone rang.

It was Katherine.

Jack answered the phone indifferently, "Where are you?"

"Pier 1."

Hanging up the phone, Jack headed for Pier 1.

At a distance, he saw Katherine in a black dress and several pieces of luggage beside her.

The breeze stirred Katherine’s long hair and dress.

Quiet smile and beautiful face made people feel very comfortable.

Just standing there, Katherine could attract a lot of attention from passers-by.

Jack had no expression and was not interested in all this.

"Jack, I’m here!" Katherine saw Jack, smiled and waved.

When Jack came near, she said with a smile, "Thank you for coming to see me off."

Jack’s expression was cold and there was no emotion in his eyes.

Jack asked indifferently, "What about things?"

He didn’t greet and he went straight to the point.

The Parry family was so greedy that Jack didn’t have to respect them.

"What?" Katherine was stunned.

"Ha!"

Jack suddenly laughed and blinked, "Katherine, Don’t play dumb! Don’t you think you are disgusting?"

Katherine trembled, her pale face full of consternation.

She murmured blankly, "I don’t play dumb. Jack, what do you mean?"

"Pa!"

Jack threw the bank card into Katherine’s hand, "Here’s the 100 million you want. The password is 000000."

"Boom!"

Katherine was shocked as if she was struck by lightning.

When did she ask him for 100 million yuan?

Soon, Katherine realized that there must be a misunderstanding.

Her eyes turned red, "What do you think I am? I just want you to come and see me off. Then, I can say goodbye to the past."

Her voice was trembling.

After her divorce from Jack, she suffered a lot, which made her sober. It turned out that the three years she spent with Jack were her happiest time.

But she knew that it was no use crying over spilt milk.

She almost went crazy, but she finally got though that period of time, and she was ready to say goodbye to the past and welcome the future.

But now, Jack’s behavior made her at a loss!

"Just see you off?"

Jack laughed angrily, and directly took out the pictures in the envelope, "What’s this? Do you think the 100 million is not enough? How much do you want to ask me for?"

Katherine was completely stunned. Her eyes widened and her mind went blank.

She was not stupid. When she saw the pictures, she immediately understood why Jack was angry.

She also understood what this 100 million yuan meant.

In a trance, Katherine shook her head and whispered, "It’s not me. It’s not me. It’s really not me..."

"Ha! Are you kidding?"

Jack’s eyes twinkled with coldness.

Katherine grabbed Jack’s arm, "Jack, believe me. I really didn’t do it. I just want to see you today and say goodbye to you. The pictures really have nothing to do with me!"

"Really?"

Jack took the note out and handed it to Katherine indifferently, "Does this note have nothing to do with you?"

Instead of transferring 100 million yuan into Katherine’s account as required by the note, Jack directly applied for a bank card.

Katherine took the note in a panic. After reading the note, her face turned pale and she could not speak.

Jack sneered, "Didn’t you say this thing had nothing to do with you? Katherine, I shouldn’t have believed you and your families. From beginning to end, all your vows to me are false. You really let me down!"

Jack’s words were heartbreaking.

Katherine’s eyes were red and full of tears.

Jack’s words were like a sharp knife stabbing her heart.

Katherine clenched her red lips, wept and shook her head.

"I hope you don’t disturb my life again."

Jack turned around and said, "You should thank me. I’m going to propose to Amber at the end of this month, so I don’t allow any accident to happen. Therefore, I have not seriously dealt with your blackmail on me. Otherwise, your family can’t be able to bear my anger!"

Watching Jack leave,

Katherine was weak and dizzy.

At this moment, she felt the world whirling.

Originally, she had plucked up the courage to say goodbye to the past, and had regained her confidence.

But just now, Jack said she blackmailed him, making her feel terrible.

"No, I didn’t do it..."

Katherine cried, murmured, and finally yelled, "Jack, I really didn’t do this!"

In the distance, Jack didn’t care and strode away.

Jack disappeared in the crowd.

Katherine squatted on the floor and cried, holding the note and the bank card tightly.

Suddenly, in a distance, three people came in a hurry.

Elissa’s eyes lit up when she saw the bank card.

"Pa," Elissa grabbed Katherine’s bank card and said with a greedy smile, "100 million yuan! It’s 100 million! I’ve never seen so much money in my life. Our family will be rich in the future!"

"Mom, we have a lot of money at last. When we get to our new house, I want to buy a luxury car at once, and I don’t have to worry about that I can’t marry a woman in the future." Tommy shouted excitedly.

Kieran was dumbfounded.

And Katherine on the ground was also shocked.

She finally understood.

Her mother did it!

Her brother did it!

She understood.

No wonder when she said she wanted to see Jack, her mother and brother stopped her father and didn’t follow her!

"Elissa!"

Katherine stood up angrily and growled at Elissa, "Do you treat me like a daughter? Why are you so disgusting? Why did you use my name to blackmail Jack? Why did you ruin my last bit of dignity?"

Katherine frantically spat out a series of questions.

Kieran was startled and afraid that her daughter would go back to the past.

Kieran quickly appeased Katherine. But Katherine ignored him. She stared at Elissa fiercely and crazily.

Elissa and Tommy were stunned.

Their faces turned blue in a while, and then became red.

Elissa suddenly blushed and yelled, "I’m your mother! Katherine, you don’t understand. This is the divorce compensation that I tried to get from Jack! You two had been married for three years. If he only gives you 200000 yuan, aren’t you letting him off a bit too easy?"

After these words, Elissa looked down at the bank card and muttered, "Now, a prostitute can earn more than 200000 yuan in three years."
