The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 104

Under the dark sky, the yellow Lamborghini was like a stroke of lighting that shot through the streets.

Katherine was in an upbeat mood at the moment. She had a sensation that her body was wrapped in the gusts of wind in spring time which made all her muscles loose.

Killian’s intrusion into her life finally helped her to rediscover what it meant to have a home.

Her nightmare which had lasted for several months finally came to an end.

Katherine was even entertaining the prospect that God was actually testing her mettle through those past few months of trials and tribulations. In the end, as if rewarding her for passing the test, he had sent Killian to her side.

After all, she finally caught a glimpse of a rainbow after braving through a thunderstorm!

“Killian, I love you.”

Katherine confessed with emotion.

Killian continued to focus on the road ahead as he replied, “I love you too.”

“Tonight, I am yours.”

“You are mine forever.”

His sweet words successfully caused her to blush. She felt like she was on cloud nine.

However, she never noticed that the corners of Killian’s mouth had slowly curled up, and his depthless eyes were now icy cold.

For him, as the elites of the all-encompassing Hughes family, he was a potential candidate to become the next heard of the family.

He was never short of beautiful women around him.

Katherine was indeed pretty, but in Killian’s eyes, there was nothing distinguishing about her at all.

He had laid his eyes on countless women who were even prettier than Katherine. Of course, she would never know about such thoughts.

At the moment, Katherine was plunged into the river of love and she couldn’t retrieve herself anymore. Her mind was filled with endless longing and fantasy, and all she was feeling at the moment was an indescribable happiness.

At the TM Villa District, it was as clear as day with the lights casting a glow on everything.

As the most prestigious community in the city, the night view here was unrivalled.

The lights formed an image of marvelous explosion of colors. This whole place was practically a paradise on earth.

Katherine who was in the passenger’s seat of the Lamborghini couldn’t move her eyes away from such an exotic sight. This was her first night staying in this wealthy area!

“If Jack that bastard were to learn about this, he would probably be so mad, right?”

“Jack, who do you think you are? With that insignificant amount of money you have, you can’t even compare to Killian’s maids. Always remember that I was the one who decided to break up with you!”

“Jack, if I were to see you again in this district with Killian by my side, would you feel so shameful that you would look for a hole to hide yourself in?”

These sentences were flashing by quickly in Katherine’s heart, and she even imagined Jack’s reaction had he known about this. This single thought made her heart flutter in happiness.

She was always prideful since she was young. She always received compliments from the people surrounding her all along.

Even if she was married to Jack, she always viewed herself as a queen perched on top of the throne.

What she never thought beforehand was that her life would be hell just months after she had divorced Jack.

She was tortured by depression and despair for so long, but now her life seemed to have started afresh and she couldn’t wait to show off her new life to Jack!

However, she couldn’t be too impatient.

Since they were both staying in the same district, not to mention they were staying in the most prestigious villa in the valleys of the hill, it would mean that their encounter was just a matter of time!

The Lamborghini sped into the villa area and entered the garage of Killian’s villa.

Katherine jumped of the car heartily and hooked her arms around Killian’s and together they entered the house.

As she strode along, her face was the same joyous and satisfied smile as before.

“Killian, let’s go to the balcony on top of the villa…” A bold idea suddenly occurred to Katherine.

The moon was casting a white glow on everything on top of the balcony, and there was nothing that could conceal them if they were there.

She felt herself captivated by such an exciting prospect!

The current her knew how to enjoy such wild excitement with Killian.

“Alright.”

Killian didn’t seem to hate her idea.

It was only some time past ten tonight, so it was not too late yet.

However, for Sophie who was still slowly recuperating, resting was the most important part in her efforts to preserve her health.

Daisy also went to bed early because she needed to take care of Sophie.

On the balcony of Jack’s villa, Jack was drinking so beers with Brent and Mr. Ward.

A mild breeze caressed their face as they let the alcohol slipped down their throat.

They were only feeling slightly tipsy and it was the most optimal state for them.

“Young master, don’t you feel any anger.” Brent asked hesitantly with a bottle of beer in his hand. He was able to muster this much courage with the help of alcohol in his system.

“I was indeed angry.”

Jack squinted his eyes and let out a laugh, “Are you curious as to why I am able to maintain my composure?”

“Brent…” Mr. Ward only took a few sips of alcohol so he was still clear-minded. He knew that Brent shouldn’t have brought this up, so he wanted to hint at him to stop this topic.

However, she didn’t expect that it would be this soon!

They were practically just next to each other! They were actually neighbors!

After this tremendous shock dissipated, Katherine suddenly felt her heart thumping hard.

She was smug, excited… various complicated emotions were merging and expanding in her chest.

She looked like a proud peacock as she hooked Killian’s arms intimately while slowly approaching the edge of their balcony. She raised her head slightly and produced an arrogant smile, “Jack, I can’t believe that I will see you here. This comes as a real shock to me. Let me introduce to you my boyfriend and his name is Killian.”

Jack said nothing in response to that. He simply adjusted his glasses and nodded with a faint smile on his face.

On Jack’s side, the three of them didn’t plan to expose Killian.

Mr. Ward had a mild anger building up from within his body.

Brent was looking furious as if he was going to devour Killian at any given moment.

Only Jack was looking nonchalant as if nothing could affect him in any way.

“You wouldn’t have thought of this, would you? You wouldn’t have imagined that I would appear in this place, right? Let me tell you, Killian is far better than you, and you can’t even compare to one of his underlings.” Katherine spoke these words with extreme arrogance and pettiness.

She wanted to show off her new life.

She wanted Jack to feel belittled and sorry for himself.

She wanted Jack to know that she was having a better life than him now!

However, Jack simply mumbled a vague response, “Oh.”

Katherine was stunned upon hearing that.

This was not the outcome she wished for!

He shouldn’t be able to remain this calm!

Was it because that she hadn’t provoked him enough?

The next second, Katherine suddenly shouted, “Killian!”

“Hmm?”

Killian tilted his face in her direction.

Katherine immediately tiptoed and pressed her red lips on Killian’s. She was very aggressive at the moment.

Jack rubbed his nose and flashed a strange smile on his face, “You seem to enjoy a lot for having such a worthless partner.”

The moment he said that, both Killian and Katherine froze.
