The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 105

Soon after that.

Killian looked angry.

Katherine even left Killian furiously.

The night wind was slightly cold, but it was not on par with their rage.

But when Katherine glared angrily to the opposite side of the villa...

Jack and Mr. Ward Brent already left.

Katherine muttered as she cried out of shame.

It shouldn't be like that!

How could that be?

She kept thinking of the scene where Jack was humiliated and was supposed to be angry. She really didn't think that Jack could say that sentence calmly!

The contempt from his tone made her fly into a rage out of humiliation instead!

“You should go down first.”

Killian sounded cold as he gazed to the terrace of the villa.

Katherine was dumbfounded as she nodded instead of talking back. She then obediently went downstairs.

What Jack had said was heartbreaking for her.

She was really not in the mood to provoke Killian anymore.

After Katherine left, Killian slowly pushed the glasses on his pointed nose.

Under the yellow dim light, anger finally showed up on his calm face and he was giving out cold vibes.

“I wanted to trample your dignity with this and make you angry, but I never thought that you'd be so calm. George deserved what you did to him.”

Killian sneered as he said that. He then rubbed his temples, turned around, and went downstairs.

While walking, Killian murmured, “That woman is useless now.”

Inside the villa.

Because Katherine's natter, Jack became fully sober.

Mr. Ward and Brent were anxious to see Jack’s calmness.

Brent couldn't hold it in any longer so he said, “Young Master, I can help you... I was also the one who helped Killian improve his battle skills.”

It was too exaggerated and Killian went too far.

Why should he disgrace other's wife?

Brent knew Killian would seek revenge so he would definitely look for Jack... But humiliating Jack in such way was really unexpected.

“Brent, you shouldn't act rashly!”

Mr. Ward cleared his throat and frowned when he said, “Young Master, you should calm down.”

“I know.”

Jack smiled, “Even if I don't know why he used so many evil ways, but he must have wanted to make me angry to achieve his goal.”

Mr. Ward frowned as he lowered his head and pondered.

Jack's reaction was very surprising and Jack's words also reminded Brent of something.

Killian had meticulous mind and was extremely subtle... Using Katherine as Jack's ex-wife to humiliate Jack was obviously too childish.

The Killian that Mr. Ward knew was very meticulous in everything.

All of the sudden, Mr. Ward trembled with an angry look on his eyes.

“Killian, what a ruthless scheme!”

“Huh?”

Both Jack and Brent looked towards Mr. Ward at the same time.

Mr. Ward's chest moved up and down as he continuously took a few deep breaths. He was clearly suppressing the anger in his heart.

Killian used his “ex-wife” to step on his dignity, make him angry, and hurt Killian, that's exactly against the family rule!

Mr. Ward smiled at the sight of Jack realizing it, “The family had investigated about George, he was the first one to mess around and Brent was the one who attacked him... Old Master also sided with Young Master, so Young Master could avoid it.”

After a pause, Mr. Ward stopped smiling, “Just now, fortunately the Young Master calmed down. Otherwise, even if Brent intervened, it'd be hard for Young Master to avoid the family rule and it'd also be hard for Old Master to side with him.”

“When those family members take a firm hold of the family rule, Young Master will definitely be driven out of the family tree and Old Master will have to give up on Young Master.”

Jack smiled bitterly.

That was the principle.

However, Jack was just the “bastard” in the Hughes family members' eyes and he wasn't even in the family tree.

It’d definitely make the father he had never met give up… Even if father was willing to support him, father would have no choice else than giving up.

Else than Jack's father in the Hughes family, no one would probably regard Jack, the “bastard”, as important?

“Killian, what an evil plan! He's killing people without weapon.”

Brent kept on sighing.

Mr. Ward also said, “Even if Killian is ruthless, but his subtleness is indeed so unfathomable.”

Jack suddenly smiled, “What if I use the family rule?”

Mr. Ward stiffened before he dejectedly said, “I'm afraid that Young Master... Won't be able to do so.”

“Fuck!”

Jack had predicted it before but he still couldn't help cursing.

Brent felt indignant at the injustice, “Then doesn't that mean that Killian can keep plotting against Young Master, but Young Master can't use the same way to plot on them?”

Before Mr. Ward could say anything...

Jack smiled bitterly as he patted Brent's shoulder.

“If there is no right cause, there will be no good solution. Qualifying as the successor is already the limit, even if it's more resentful, I must bear with it.”
