Winner Takes All novel Chapter 185

Jack looked serious as he stopped.

Mr. Ward and Brent were dumbfounded as they also stopped.

What was Yael doing?

“You can follow me if you want, but I won't care if anything happen to you.”

Jack sounded cold, he quickly went downstairs after saying that.

Yael laughed and followed while he held Mr. Ward and Brent's shoulders.

“Don't worry, in any case, I'm also a member of X City’s Quinn family… The Burton family you speak of is the wealthiest in the capital city, right?”

“Yeah, you really want to follow us?”

Mr. Ward deliberately reminded him because it was not a trivial matter.

Jack was really offended that Old Master Burton kidnapped Madam to the Burton family.

Jack said that he was going to smash the Burton family's door, that must be true!

“Exciting, now this is exciting!”

Yael laughed out loud, “My body has been emptied after playing women everyday, it's the right time to give my dick a holiday.”

Both Mr. Ward and Brent flushed, they were also speechless.

When Jack and the others arrived at the airport.

People from the Hughes family office had been waiting to lead them directly through the internal passage, entering the airport and boarding the private jet.

Flying with personal jet was not a very difficult thing for the Hughes family.

As the plane took off.

The temperature in the cabin dropped.

Both Brent and Mr. Ward clearly felt the cold aura coming from Jack's body, which was frightening.

Even the frivolous Yael also looked serious as he looked at Jack in silence.

“Young Master, I have informed the head of the household.” Mr. Ward said.

Jack nodded.

Both his expression and his eyes looked so cold.

Mr. Ward couldn't help frowning, the way Young Master was furious at that time.

Once his anger exploded, the consequences would be so horrible.

After hesitating, Mr. Ward advised, “Young Master, the Burton family is the wealthiest in the capital city after all, so...”

“He can do anything to me, but not to my mother! He's going over the limits!”

That sentence made Mr. Ward cancel what he wanted to say before.

He knew that it would be useless even if he gave more advice.

Mr. Ward helplessly sighed as he looked to the clouds beyond the window in anxiousness.

There might be a huge problem in the capital city at that night...

Yael's eyes glistened as he laughed and said, “I'm actually very curious, how did you become enemies with the Burton family?”

“You can just watch the show.” Jack responded coldly.

Yael shrugged and said, “All right, you're the illegitimate successor of the Hughes family! How dare you challenge the Burton family? You're fucking awesome!”

He said that as he gave Jack a thumbs up.

Jack was fed up with him as he rubbed his temples and said, “Brent , throw him away!”

Brent grimaced as he glared at Yael .

Yael hurriedly waved his hand and begged for mercy, “Okay, okay, I was wrong, okay?”

“So noisy!”

Jack unhappily glanced sideways at Yael, before closing his eyes for a nap.

Mr. Ward glared to warn Yael.

Yael didn't know about Young Master's temper, but Mr. Ward and Brent knew!

Those who offend him and go over the limit would definitely die!

If Young Master really had a good temper, he wouldn't have stabbed himself and help his mother avenge Killian

The capital city.

The real international capital city.

Many countless influential figures gathered in the capital city.

The capital city was also a place for hidden talents.

Being the champion amongst the weak might not be considered as strong.

But being the champion amongst the strong ones, that's definitely considered as strong!

The Burton family was just like that!

The richest man with extraordinary power was in the capital city, which was full of influential figures.

They sky was getting dark.

The capital city looked prosperous when the lights were lit at night.

But there were no stars and moon in the capital city at that night, the city was shrouded in black clouds.

Like a storm was coming.

It oppressed the whole city.

On the outskirts of the capital city.

Fragrant Hill Scenic Spot, as the capital city's tourism spot, which could get thousands of visitors a day.

But only a few people knew, that there was an Ancient Castle Villa in the remote small area of Fragrant Hill.

That place was restricted for common people.

Only people who was allowed by the owner of Ancient Castle Villa could enter.

That was where the Burton family live!

The Ancient Castle Villa was shining brightly amongst the dark.

Being in the middle of the hill was quite deserted, and it made the Ancient Castle Villa uniquely mysterious.

In the room.

Sophie looked at that familiar room blankly.

There were more than a dozen of delicacies in front of it.

But she had no appetite at all, her eyes were bloodshot and full of tears.

Describing what Old Master Burton did that day with "using all means to reach the goal" wasn't exaggerated at all.

If she didn't live in the Burton family since she was a kid and if she didn't know that the Burton family thinks so highly of males compared to females... She would really doubt whether she was Old Master Burton's own daughter.

Clack!

The room's door was opened.

Old Master Burton walked in with a friendly smile.

“Sophie, this is your room back then... Even after 20 years, I told people to clean it up everyday and I never changed the layout.”

“So what?”

Sophie looked Old Master Burton in tears and resentment.

“I know that you're still blaming Dad.”

Old Master Burton smiled bitterly as he sat on the chair, he glanced at the dishes on the table and slightly frowned, “You don't like it? I'll let the servant cook it again.”

“I can't eat the Burton family's food.”

Sophie bit her lips, it was too strong that her lips bled.

“Sophie, Dad did that for the bigger picture.”

Old Master Burton sighed and explained, “As a daughter, you just need to serve the Burton family. Patrick abandoned you and your son, the inheritance you got will definitely get embezzled anyway. As a member of the Burton family, strengthening the family is your only mission!”

“Pff!”

Sophie suddenly laughed as she glared at Old Master Burton, “That's a groundless reason! Because of the powerful the Burton family, you ignored our lives, suppressing me for 20 years?”

“Are you blind? I'm a woman, but I'm way more capable than your dear son, you were worried that I'd get embezzled by the industry, so you took it by force? Isn't that so funny?”

Her series of questions made Old Master Burton's face and ears red and felt restless.

Sophie was so domineering like she was venting all her complaints.

She slowly stood up and glared down at Old Master Burton with a disdainful look on her face.

“You think that males are superior to females, you kept talking about powerful family, and you didn't hesitate to take the industry which was left for me and Jack to strengthen the Burton family... However,  your son is so stupid that he caused the current state of the Burton family, and now you're asking Jack to come back and be in charge?”

She sounded powerful and every word she said went straight to the point.

She just humiliated and sneered at him.

Old Master Burton breathed heavily, looking fierce look.

“You’re such an insolent daughter!”

Bam!

He swung his crutches to hit Sophie's right leg.

“Ah!”

Sophie screamed out of pain as she fell to the ground. The strong pain made her tremble and sweat a lot.

But she still stubbornly glared at Old Master Burton.

She slowly said, “Don't you... Have the guts to kill me?”
