Winner Takes All novel Chapter 210

"What is it?"

Jack Hughes looked at Yael Quinn in confusion.

Yael stretched himself, slumped onto the hospital bed, and folded his feet together. He leaned back slightly as he looked at the ceiling.

Smiling teasingly, he said, "If this weren't about that Jour family in X City, I really wouldn't have remembered it if I hadn't thought about it carefully just now."

Jack did not rush and was waiting patiently.

"Although the Jour family is small, I still met their family face-to-face a few times because the Quinn family in X City had a business in cooperation with the Jour family."

"The most recent face-to-face meeting I remember was at a banquet before I hacked my dad to death."

The corner of Jack's mouth twitched.

However, Yael said as if nothing had happened, "At that time, I saw a junior standing behind the head of the Jour family. I was not taking it seriously at all before, and even the head of the Jour family, I also did not take them seriously…"

As he was saying, he suddenly sat up.

Both eyes stared straight at Jack.

"But after knowing you, I suddenly remember it now. That junior's look is very similar to yours."

"Look like me?"

Jack was stunned.

Yael nodded seriously, and his smile was always teasing, "If it weren't for this incident involving that Jour family, I would have forgotten this interesting matter. If that kid knew that because of you who look like him that destroyed their family, I wonder what mood he would be in?"

Jack said, "Is there a photo?"

He was really curious.

It was fine to look alike if it was a twin of the same father and mother.

But the identity, background, family history was very different, and they were even thousands of miles apart. The two people actually look alike?

He invited Yael before, but it was the first time Yael went to X City.

"I'll look for it."

Yael took out his phone and searched for the photos in his phone.

But as if he was deliberately avoiding Jack. He turned his body around and did not allow Jack to see the photos, not even a bit.

"So mysterious?"

Jack pursed his lips.

Yael searched while saying, "There are some exchanges of selfies."

"Damn…" Jack cursed.

After a while.

Yael suddenly shouted, "Found it! Fortunately, I always had a backup when I change my phone, and everything got into the new phone."

While he was saying, he handed the phone to Jack.

Jack took a look and was immediately frozen.

The photo was obviously taken at a banquet.

The scene was very grand. It was a bustling and crowded place.

The protagonist of the photo was a very innocent beauty.

The angle was obviously a shot took without her notice.

And in the corner of the crowd, Jack saw a face.

A face that was almost the same as his!

If not for Yael's reminder, he would have even wondered when he had attended such a banquet when he saw this face?

"Isn't it very similar?"

Yael looked at the photo and then looked at Jack, "At least 90 percent similar. Do you want to go back and ask your parents if they had a twin back then? Did they kept you and sent this away?"

"This joke is not funny."

Jack rolled his eyes, digressing, "I did not expect a rich young man like you actually took a photo of this beauty secretly. You are really filthy. The person looks so innocent, and if she knows about this, she will certainly be disgusted by you."

"So what…"

Yael twitched his mouth, "Innocent? A walking bitch, she is way more ruthless than me!"

Jack was speechless.

The conversation ended here.

Jack also did not dwell on this person who looked like him.

As if he was treating this as a joke and strange news.

With a population of several billion, finding two people who looked like each other was not too sensational.

Moreover, now the Jour family had become a scapegoat and took responsibility for the huge offense.

Followed by the Hughes family's cruel tricks, anyone who was incapable absolutely could not stand it.

Everything had vanished, and there was no point in pursuing too much.

"You really do not intend to pursue it?" Yael suddenly asked as he was not reconciled.

"Unable to find out." Jack shook his head, "We can only wait for the next time."

The mastermind behind the scene could sacrifice the Jour family as a scapegoat. Such energy, unless he wanted to tell you who he is, or else it was impossible to find out.

"Alright."

Yael nodded, and suddenly his eyes turned, "Then how do you plan to treat the Vaughn family and the Wattson family?"

"What do you think?"

Jack gave an odd smile.

Yael rubbed his hands and said with hope, "How about you give me a chance to be the hero to save the beauty? Then I can obtain Vinna Vaughn easily."

"Beast!"

Jack laughed and cursed, "I can help you with your heroic rescue, but the price that the Vaughn family had to pay cannot be all eliminated."

That night, Vinna rushed behind him and Ciara Wattson. She pushed them fiercely and used the two of them to block the knife. This incident was not something that Yael could erase with a word or two.

It was also because of the push.

Jack understood, in the end, which of the two families was worth befriending.

The situation at that time was Ciara could protect him and used her back to block the knife. Compared to Vinna's doings, she was distinctive.

"I just want Vinna, and the others are your decision to make." Yael waved his hand.

Jack thought about it, "Help me to contact Ciara and let her come to the hospital for a while. I have something to ask her."

"No problem, I'll go directly to the Jade Spring Villa."

Yael got up instantly and ran away.

Jack froze for a moment and looked down at the thick gauze wrapped around his upper body.

It seemed like… I'm still a wounded person!

Yael, this asshole, has to stay here to take care of me, right?

"Forgetting righteousness as he met beauties."

Jack cursed fiercely.

Almost evening.

Ciara finally pushed open the door of Jack's ward.

Jack, who had been waiting for a long time, secretly cursed Yael a hundred times again.

This brat certainly did not call her in advance, but only after arriving at the Jade Spring Villa and said in person.

He suspected that the beast was flirting with Vinna first and suddenly thought of it, then only he told Ciara.

Otherwise, it would not be so late.

"Mr. Hughes, are you looking for me?"

Ciara was calm and cold as always, but there were some changes as she looked at Jack's eyes.

"Have a seat."

Jack pointed to the chair next to the bed.

After Ciara sat down, she did not ask.

Jack was also hesitant for a while.

Regarding this type of matter, how should he ask?

In the ward, it was quiet.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

After nearly ten minutes, Ciara opened her mouth and broke the silence.

"Does Mr. Hughes have any questions?"

Jack said, "Ah" and he was panicked.

His gaze subconsciously at Ciara's slender legs that were wrapped in thin stockings.

The same black business attire and the same thin stockings.

Exactly the same as the memory of the last scene of that night in his mind.

"Mr. Hughes…"

Seeing Jack lost in thought as he was staring at her thighs, Ciara frowned and was somewhat displeased.

Jack quickly came back to his senses. He looked at her eyes, took a deep breath, and asked seriously.

"That night, I was drugged. Did I do anything inappropriate to you?"

Ciara was stunned, and her pretty face turned red. She lowered her head, and her hands were clenched together.

Trouble caused!

Jack's heart thumped, and he wanted to bang his head against the wall.

He hurriedly said, "That, I did not mean to ask, but I do have a vague memory of that night, so I wanted to confirm it."

"Alright. Then I'll tell you what happened that night when the drug took effect."

Ciara suddenly stood up; her pretty face was scarlet. Her gaze was gentle, and she leaned down directly towards Jack.

The sudden scene scared Jack. His face changed, and his heart was beating wildly.

"No, no, I just wanted to ask. You can say it instead of demonstrating on the spot!"
