Winner Takes All novel Chapter 176

It was exactly noon when Jack arrived at the Four Impression Club.

Brent drove the Rolls Royce into the club without any difficulty even though they didn’t have an invitation.

That was because Minister Mable had ordered that Jack could enter and leave the Four Impression Club as he wished without an invitation.

After parking.

“Young master, shall I go with you?” Brent said.

Since the young master said that he was coming to Four Impression Club to see what the person waiting for him would do.

Naturally, he had to follow closely. Otherwise, what if the person had a bad intention on the young master?

“Yes.”

Jack got out of the car.

He beckoned a worker of the club, “Where is Old Master Burton?”

“Sea Mountain Courtyard.”

“Lead the way.”

He followed the staff and go all the way to the depths of Four Impression Club.

Jack showed a faint disdain smile.

He knew the specification of the Four Impression Club after entering it a few times.

Sea Mountain Courtyard was the first-class hospitality.

But it was nothing at all compared to the VIP-level Bamboo Grove.

The Burton family always thought highly of themselves. Why couldn’t they even make his father-in-law move out from Bamboo Grove then?

In the distance, Jack saw a courtyard in the greenery.

It was different from the solitude of the Bamboo Grove.

Although Sea Mountain Courtyard was the first-class specification, it showed magnificence and solemnity.

Moreover, there were other courtyards around.

The place itself was not comparable to Bamboo Grove.

Squeak…

The heavy vermilion rivet door was pushed open slowly.

Jack walked in followed by Brent.

It did not present the elegance of the Bamboo Grove. It was just a place that could be described as “eye-catching”.

Not far away, a young man in a suit and shoes came up.

He was one of the Old Master Burton’s bodyguard.

“Young Master, the old master has been waiting for you in the restaurant for a long time. You’re late.”

The bodyguard bowed, making the gesture of invitation, and pointed out the direction.

But Jack did not step forward.

Instead, he looked coldly at the bodyguard and said, “Is a dog even qualified to criticize me?”

The expression on the bodyguard’s face changed.

Bang!

Brent kicked the bodyguard directly.

His towering body stepped forward like an ion tower, staring at the bodyguard from a commanding position, “It is your pleasure that my young master came.”

“Let’s go, Brent.”

Jack put his hands in his pockets and walked to the restaurant leisurely, but with a cynical smile on his face, “You have laid a soft hand. The dog of the person who lays hands on me should be beaten hard.”

“Yes, young master.” Brent nodded.

In the restaurant with a classical look.

Presenting an antique atmosphere.

The melody from the Guzheng reverberated and the scent of sandalwood lingered.

On the huge round table laid delicacies that were slowly turning.

Old Master Burton sat on the master’s seat, while Minister Mable sat beside him.

Next to them, there were a few more people.

Among them, there were Director Lansing of LJ Hospital and Aiden.

Since Old Master Bruton wanted to show the vast connection of his family, of course, Minister Mable should help him invite the most influenced people of the cities.

Director Lansing was the leader of the medical profession, while Aiden was the tycoon of the city’s business centers. It was not surprising that they were present.

Aiden glanced at everyone on the table with intention.

Even his gold frame glasses could not block his desire.

Strictly speaking, no one here was inferior to him. They were either equal to him or better than him.

Minister Mable was like his God.

And the Old Master Burton in the main seat was the existence that he needed to sit with every day.

Aiden had heard of the richest man of the capital.

As a businessman, he was the best at business.

Otherwise, Aiden would not waver between Jack and Killian.

It would be another opportunity for Aiden if he could make friends with the Burton family.

Although it was not a life-changing chance like the Hughes family, it was enough to make him leap to higher success.

“Old Master Burton, rest assure. Your heir would go back to the Burton family with you after this meal.”

Aiden knew the purpose of his trip, so he spoke out.

To put it bluntly, wasn’t the banquet about showing his silly son that he could call as many tycoons as he wanted and let his silly son go home willingly and take over the landlord position?

“Thank you very much.”

Old Master Burton clasped his fist with a calm expression, not showing a tint of gratitude.

He did not care to thank Aiden.

He was the richest man in the capital.

In his eyes, Aiden, the tycoon of business centers was just like an anthill in the horse barn.

“We have so many people here?”

A burst of banter laughter came from outside the door.

All of them looked at the same time.

The smile on Aiden’s face froze, and his pupils shrunken.

Director Lansing showed consternation. His hands pressed hard on the table and almost jumped.

Minister Mable’s mouth twitched and looked strangely at the arrogant Old Master Burton.

The rest of them also showed shock.

After all, Jack and DT Agency were now in the limelight in the city.

It would be strange not to know Jack with the position of the people on the table.

When Jack saw the few familiar faces in the room, the smile on his face froze too.

What a coincidence?

Minister Mable and Director Lansing were the best friends of Amber’s father. They were two of the men he knew.

And another person was Aiden, whose “backbone” he had just broken!

But in a second, Jack understood the situation, and his face turned cold.

That was not a reunion dinner. That was showing him a threat!

He was not familiar with others, but the three-person he was familiar with were all influential people in the city.

If it were a reunion, why would there be so many influenced people around?

Dong!

A dull sound came from the dining room.

The Old Master Burton stumped his crutch heavily on the ground with a sullen look and yelled.

“Jack, we have many friends here today. They are all your elders and influenced men in your city. You are late. And you are being so impolite and not apologizing for your act?”

Upon hearing that.

Minister Mable and the others were all shocked.

Was…an apology needed?

“Why should I apologize?”

Jack raised his eyebrows and smirked, “You asked me to come at noon, and I arrived on time. Was I impolite?”

“It’s impolite of you to let us wait for you here,” Old Master Burton showed arrogance and said angrily.

“Huh.”

The smirk of disdain on Jack’s face was more obvious than before, “Don’t put on airs. If you want to threaten me, then do it. Why do you have to put on a play that you’re superior?”

Threaten?

Minister Mable and the others frowned, and their heartbeat wildly.

The fact that Jack was a member of the Burton family was enough of a shock for them.

It was even shocking that this meal was to let Jack acknowledge the superiority.

Why was it a threat now?

All of them were very thoughtful people. They soon came back to sense. The meal would not be nice.

“You’re ruthless. Apologize now!”

Old Master Burton had a feeling of being humiliated, he clenched his teeth and scolded.

“Why should I apologize?”

Jack shook his head in disdain. He walked at ease. Then he sat down on the chair, lazily put his hand on the armrest, and cocked his legs.

He glanced at the people on the table and finally at Old Master Burton.

“Ask them, is there anyone here who dares to accept my apology?”
