Winner Takes All novel Chapter 158

Katherine Parry was completely stunned.

Kieran Parry and Tommy Parry’s facial expression had changed too.

Two of them even felt that Elissa Tanner’s words were too over!

“Mom, how could you say that to sister?” Tommy reminded her with a low voice.

However, Elissa raised her head arrogantly, “Did I say anything wrong?” After she married Jack, how much did she get? How much did she help our family? When you wanted to marry Shirley, she couldn’t even help you. And now, as her mother, I am doing my best to help her get back alimony, is it my fault?”

After saying that, Elissa gave Katherine a stern look.

“What could you be benefited if you stay with that animal, Jack? It is better that you stay with Killian. You could at least get a few million after sleeping with him!”

“Enough!”

Kieran’s body shook and he raised his hand and slapped her flagrantly.

Slap!

The slap was powerful.

The slap was loud and crisp.

Elissa staggered and took a few steps back. Half of her face was swollen.

She acted peremptory and domineering as she wanted to scold him. However, when she looked at Kieran with extremely fierce eyes, she was extremely scared as if her heart fiercely beat and she suppressed the urge.

Kieran’s whole body was trembling. He gnashed his teeth in anger while looking fiercely at Elissa, “Elissa, are you still a human? Do you want to force your daughter to death? You are blinded by money, don’t you even care about your daughter anymore?”

“Dad…”

After hearing Kieran supporting her, Katherine immediately cried out and ran into Kieran’s hug.

Kieran patted on Katherine’s back to comfort her while glaring fiercely at Elissa, “I, I am really done with you. Sometimes, I even wanted to divorce you and had the feeling to fucking kill you!”

“Kill me then!” Elissa became angry too. She held her bank card tightly, “I have money now. After we divorce, I could still stay with my son as usual unless you kill me now!”

“You…” Kieran’s voice stopped.

“Dad, stop arguing. There is no way you could make any sense out of her.”

Katherine stopped her father while crying loudly. She knew that if her mother was able to straighten out her thinking a little bit, their family wouldn’t be in this situation.

It was fine for being treated wrong!

She only wanted to stay at the other place quietly and change her way of living for the rest of her life.

This idea was like to throw the handle after the blade.

Katherine could not change anything so she could only bear it even if she felt wronged, “Let’s go. Let’s leave this place. We are no longer related to Jack anymore. He is going to propose to Amber at the end of the month. We, the Parry family, and Jack will no longer be related anymore.”

However.

Elissa suddenly laughed ferociously with a cold tune, “Proposal? He thought too much of himself!”

Katherine’s small body trembled. She immediately stopped her step.

Kieran quickly turned back, “You, what kind of sins have you done again!?”

“Sins? I am revenging for Kathrine! Did he really think that my daughter could be bullied easily?”

Katherine felt elated and she was full of smiles, “I have sent that pile of photos to that damn Amber. I wonder how does she feel like. Jack is proposing to her at the end of the month? You would wait and see Amber dump Jack!”

Boom!

Katherine’s face suddenly turned pale as if it did not have any blood.

Her body trembled and she quickly felt waves of giddiness.

Then, her body became soft and she fell into Kieran’s arm.

In Bamboo Grove at Four Impression Club.

These two days, Amber Knight kept muddling along and did not feel like eating and drinking.

She was thinking about the photos in her mind.

She kept trying to understand Jack Hughes. However, the photos were the ironclad evidence, and they kept rebutting her own conviction.

A melodious piano sound was echoing.

Amber leaned by the window, looking at the colorful flowers and fountain in the small courtyard. Her eyes looked red and swollen.

She looked forward to the proposal ceremony at the end of the month.

She naively desired Jack in golden armor, stepping on the colorful clouds, descending down from the sky to propose to her.

However, all the desire and wish became cold and numb as if they were thrown into an ice cave.

Knock!

A knock came from the door.

“Amber, time to have lunch.” Steve Knight shouted from outside.

Amber wiped off tears at the corner of her eyes, “Dad, I am not hungry. You can eat with Mom.”

“You have not eaten for two days. What if your body is spoiled as you are starving?” Steve’s voice was a little angry as he worried about her daughter.

Amber said as if she acted like a spoiled child, “Hey Dad, I have grown up. Could you not treat me as a child?”

“Amber, do you have something in your mind that troubled you? You could talk to Dad. Did Jack bully you?”

Outside the door, Steve’s voice made Amber’s heart beat fiercely.

She said hurriedly, “No, no! How did that silly Jack dare to bully me? If he dares to bully me, I could take down him with one punch.”

“Ah… okay.” Steve sighed. Nothing was heard outside the door.

However, Amber bit her red lips and murmured with a low voice, “It is that silly Jack who bullied me…”

In the dining room.

Steve walked to Rosie’s side with a worried look, “It seems that Amber is having trouble with Jack.”

He was trying to feel out her feelings when he asked her just now.

Although Amber had tried her best to hide it, with Steve’s experience, he could feel it from her tone of voice.

“Ah… They have gone through so much to get together. Jack is going to propose at the end of the month. Why are they still having trouble?” Rosie sighed. After looking at the full table of dishes, she sighed again, “It seemed that I have to take matters into my own hands. I couldn’t let Amber disregard eating and drinking anymore. It would be bad if she starved herself until her body is spoiled.”

She said to Steeve, “I will send Amber some food and ask her about this. You eat by yourself. Don’t follow me or eavesdrop through the door.

“Nah… I am the chairman of QY International Group and I have a reputation outside, why would I eavesdrop?” Steve said seriously.

Rosie scolded him. She took a bowl, picked dishes that Amber liked, and walked towards Amber’s room.

Amber finally opened the door and let Rosie enter the room after Rosie gave her advice.

Steve felt wronged while looking at the door that was closed, “Only opening the door when your Mom comes to advise but not eating when Dad comes to advise. I feel so angry.”

After eating for a while, Steve couldn’t help but pick some dishes into a bowl and he made his way noiselessly to Amber’s room door. He then put his ear on the door and started listening.

Yet, before he could listen to anything, a shout was heard from the entrance of the courtyard.

“Mr. Knight, there is a letter for you!”

A letter?

Steve frowned and brought the bowl and chopsticks quickly to the courtyard. He received the letter from the security guard.

The letter was thick and the words ‘To be received by Amber Knight’ were stated on it.

However, his wife and daughter were talking to each other in the house.

His daughter had acted weird these two days and it made Steve opened the letter out of curiosity.

Steve was suddenly stunned when he looked at the first photo in the letter.

His pupils became bigger and bigger and his face getting shocked.

An extremely furious look was shown on his face.

There were even two veins shaking around the corners of his eyes.

Bang!

Steve fiercely smashed the bowl and chopsticks onto the ground said some words from the gap of his teeth, “Jack, you deserve to die if you bully my daughter!”
