Winner Takes All novel Chapter 175

Jack’s facial expression was cold and sharp.

His eyes were flashing with a cold look as he frowned and stared at the message on his phone.

How shameless could the old master who meddle with people’s life like toys be?

“Young master...”

When Brent saw Jack was not in a good state of mood, he wanted to ask.

Jack replied to the message quickly.

The content was simple, Get lost!

After keeping his phone properly, Jack pressed down the annoying feeling and showed a smile, “It’s nothing. Let’s eat breakfast.”

At breakfast, the message notification from his mobile phone sounded again.

Jack did not check the message.

Because he was not sure if it was from the old master of the Burton family.

If it was, he was not sure if he could remain calm.

If his mother saw him like that, it would only affect her mood.

Now that he had decided to ignore the Burton family, he didn’t want to have much to do with them.

The only thing that could be done was to remain calm and not stab back.

When Jack got on the car to get to his office.

Only then, he took out his phone to read the message.

Sure enough, it was Old Master Burton.

Clicking into the message, a sudden flash of fierce awn was shown in Jack’s eyes. He could not restrain his anger anymore.

The content of the message was: If you don’t come over, I as your grandfather will visit your house in person and ask my unfilial daughter how did she bring up my grandson!

Was this a threat?

Jack couldn’t help holding tight on the phone in his right hand and stared at the screen of the mobile phone fiercely.

Unfilial daughter?

Was he even qualified to judge his mother?

Father without father’s love, why should his daughter be filial?

In a second, the temperature in the car seemed to drop a lot.

Brent, who was driving, noticed that Jack’s change and asked, “Young master, is there anything I can do for you?”

“You won!”

With a cold smile, the anger in Jack’s eyes disappeared and he looked at Brent, “I’m not going to the agency. Take me around the city a few times. Then take me to the Four Impressions Club when it’s almost noon.”

“To meet Amber?” Brent nodded with a smile, “Young master, you need to meet Amber. The agency has been busy for such a long time. Amber surely misses you.”

Jack rubbed his nose, but calmly said, “Someone is trying to put their hands on me. I’m going to see how he would do it.”

Brent’s smile froze. He realized that Jack was not going to meet Amber in the Four Impressions Club.

He smiled in embarrassment and drove.

Jack looked out of the window at the scenery passing away fast, but his depression was rising slowly.

Was that asking him to give out a stab?

……

In Four Impression Club.

In the luxurious reception hall, there were laughter and chattering voices.

“It’s my pleasure that Old Master Burton could visit my humble Four Impression Club.” Minister Mable was delighted and smiled.

On the main seat, Old Master Burton with grey beard and hair, sat upright, with the dignity of the superior.

Even Minister Mable’s magnificent was nothing compared to Old Master Burton.

Old Master Burton glanced sideways at Minister Mable, “I’m sorry for coming in sudden. Thank you for your hospitality, Mable.”

The way of addressing him “Mable” had pulled apart the status difference between them.

However, Minister Mable did not show any dissatisfaction.

He indeed had a high position in the city. He was indeed a person that a businessman tycoon like Aiden would want to have a good relationship with.

But he was still inferior compared to the head of the Burton family, the richest man in the capital city.

Whether the age, identity background, or resources and details that could be mobilized.

“Old Master Burton, you’re too polite. I’ve already prepared a suite courtyard just for you.” Minister Mable said with a smile.

Old Master Burton waved his hand and said with a smile, “Don’t bother. The Bamboo Grove would be fine. I heard that the Bamboo Grove is the most elegant and quiet room in the Four Impression club. I’m old and can’t bear noises.”

Upon hearing this.

Minister Mable was stunned and chucked embarrassedly, “My apologies, Old Master Burton, the Bamboo Grove is occupied.”

“Just let them move out.” Old Master Burton did not smile back and was arrogant.

The arrival of the Burton family, the richest man in the capital city would be just like the arrival of a dragon.

With his status and full self-confidence, no one dared to deny him and compare with him.

However.

“I can’t ask them to move.”

Minister Mable was outspoken, with a little coldness and stern look in his eyes.

He revered the Burton family and respected him.

But it didn’t mean that he could be bossed and directed by Old Master Burton at will.

The place belonged to him, and Steve who was in the Bamboo Grove was his best friend.

Moreover, would the Knight family be inferior to the Burton family?

“What?”

With a frown, Old Master Burton’s facial expression turned colder, “Mable, is this your way of hospitality?”

Minister Mable sat up and looked directly at Old Master Burton, “Steve Knight of QY International Group!”

Boom!

Old Master Burton’s eyes twitched as if he was struck by a lightning.

QY International Group was famous in the world and had great strength.

The Burton family was the richest in the capital city.

But Old Master Burton knew that the Burton family and the QY International Group had a gap.

Even in his heyday, the Burton family was at most as good as QY International Group.

But it was only in the country!

After being surprised, Old Master Burton asked, “Why is the President Knight of QY International Group here?”

“Visiting his relative.”

Minister Mable just answered. There was no difference between visiting a relative and visiting their future son-in-law.

The moment he said that.

Old Master Burton stood up and walked outside, “Then, I should visit them. So that our Burton family would not be claimed as rude people.”

The old man was shameless.

Minister Mable looked at Old Master Burton’s back with a sense of disdain.

Seeing that Old Master Burton was going out of the reception hall, he immediately stopped him.

“Old Master, there is no need to go there. President Knight lives in Bamboo Grove. It was difficult for me to meet him as the owner of this place. He came back to the country for a personal matter this time. He did not want others to know.”

Old Master Burton stopped, he hesitated and then smiled helplessly, “Well, well. Since it’s a private matter, I won’t disturb them. I have plenty of time to get to know President Knight in the future.”

Then he came back and sat back in his chair.

Minister Mable then asked, “Old Master Burton, may I know why are you visiting this city? I might be able to help.”

Old Master Burton lifted his brows, “I indeed need your help on this matter, Mable. One of my Burton family’s children has been exiled in your territory. Now that he is gradually growing strong, it's time for him to go home.”

Speaking of this, Old Master Burton looked distressed, “But the boy is arrogant and opinionated. He thought he could make a breakthrough outside. He didn’t want to go back with me. So, I asked him to come to your place this time.”

“I also want him to see how strong the Burton family’s connections are. To make him give up his thoughts of making a breakthrough and go back with me.”

Minister Mable nodded. It was not the first time he encountered such things.

He said with a smile, “The heir of the Old Master must be someone above others, but if he can go back to the Burton family and with the help of Burton family, he is bound to create a new world. There would be no need for him to create his own business. Don’t worry, old master. I’ll let the heir know how broad the Burton family’s world is and how broad your contacts are.”

“That’s great. Thank you, Mable.” Old Master Burton smiled as he gripped on his fist as thanks, “let him know what superior is. Then he will come back to Burton’s family with me.”
