There was a sound like thunder.
It was breathtaking.
The outrageous Hughes family was shocked.
As those are ordinary people and domestic servants, Jack seemed to be an untouchable secret to them.
The child of the family head, one of the heirs?
How could that be?
The list of heirs of the Hughes family had long been done, and the head of the family had always been pure-hearted and single.
Where did this child come from? Where was the heir from?
It was Mr. Ward who said this. As the family head's trusted servant, it was impossible to lie about that.
In fact, when Jack came with Mr. Ward and Brent, many people noticed Mr. Ward and Brent, and were horrified.
It was Jack's words and behavior which were arrogant, which quickly attracted everyone's attention, causing these people to subconsciously give up researching the existence of Mr. Ward and Brent.
Now Mr. Ward stepped forward and scolded the audience.
In an instant, everyone panicked.
The angry gazes falling on Jack transited silently.
They were shocked, horrified, unbelieving, and even some people had fire in their eyes.
If he was really the child of the head of the family, one of the heirs of the Hughes family, the remarks just now really couldn't be called as arrogance.
It was more likely affinity and politeness.
The noisy and deafening Green Corridors returned to silence again in an instant.
One after another, their eyes scanned Jack, Mr. Ward and Brent, back and forth.
Mr. Ward was a trusted servant of the family head.
Brent was a close guard of the family head.
They were well known among the ordinary people and domestic servants.
And now, the way that the two of them were protecting Jack was enough to calm down the ordinary people and domestic servants.
"Hm?"
Jack joked and smiled to Mr. Ward, "Mr. Ward, it turns out that you carry quite a lot of weight in the Hughes family."
Mr. Ward smiled bitterly, and whispered, "But only for these ordinary people and domestic servants, you need to stop teasing me."
"Let's go."
The smile on Jack's face disappeared, and his stern look was restored, "I want to see, who can stop me!"
Step by step, they moved forward slowly without rushing.
The ordinary people and domestic servants did not dare to step forward.
This majestic momentum was enough to even suffocated these people.
They were not like the domestic servants at the mountain gate who were secretly instigated by George.
Now the only Hughes family members that could secretly instruct anyone, were only the real top ones.
Patrick, or Madame Hughes!
"Stop!"
There was a loud sound.
Jack stopped abruptly and looked towards where the sound came from.
At the same time, everyone looked towards the end of the Green Corridor.
Over there, a figure was slowly coming towards this side.
The eyes behind the gold framed glasses exuded a cloudy light.
The stern face was like frost.
Killian walked slowly, staring diagonally at the clansmen and domestic servants on both sides of the corridor.
"You are bunch of trash, don't you know that a bastard is not allowed to enter the door to the Hughes family?"
Bastard?!
It seemed as if everyone was struck by lightening, their expressions changed drastically.
Jack narrowed his eyes, curled his lips, and gave a weird sneer.
But Mr. Ward, Brent and Daisy frowned instantly as their faces looked angry.
He didn't mind that George was mentioning him as a bastard in front of the archway of the Hughes Mansion.
Now Killian was calling him the same in front of so many Hughes family members. Did he want to let everyone in the family know?
To Jack, to Patrick, this was blatant disrespect!
Killian was full of anger and calmly pushed the glasses on his nose.
"Bastard, you should have the consciousness of a bastard. George kept you from entering the Hughes Mansion. That's for your own good! You bastard don't know the rules, and openly violated our family rules. Today, this will be your end!"
The speech was precise and powerful.
It let everyone in the room feel fear.
However.
"Let's go."
Jack smiled disdainfully.
He stepped forward again and walked towards the end of the Green Corridor, but his eyes narrowed even more.
