Winner Takes All novel Chapter 161

“I’m here down the mountain.”

Amber sounded calm on the phone.

It made Jack frown and confused.

Then Amber’s calm voice rang on the phone again.

“Are you sure that you’ll propose to me?”

Jack frowned even more and smiled, “Of course, I’ve been preparing for this day for a long time.”

Jack just finished his words.

Steve Knight’s voice suddenly rang on the phone.

“Jack Hughes, what is going on with the photos?”

Bang!

Jack looked as if he had been trucked by lightning and felt depressed. His mind went blank.

Something was wrong!

He got extremely angry instantly.

There was only one reason since Amber had known about it.

Katherine… hadn’t deleted the photos as she promised.

Instead, she sent those photos to Amber.

Jack said hastily, “Wait for me, Mr. Knight. I’m coming right now.”

Hanging up the phone, Jack hurriedly asked Brent to drive him there. They drove fast down the mountain. All the others were left and felt stunned.

Jack was furious with anger in his eyes all the way.

He clenched his hands. The blue veins on his hands protruded out.

Jack had never expected that he had been tolerant to satisfy the Parry family; while his plan failed at the key moment.

He had spent long time preparing so well and carefully for this proposal all by himself.

Jack wouldn’t accept any unexpected situations when he and Amber were about to get married!

On the mountain road.

The black Mercedes-Benz G-Class was parked by the roadside quietly.

After they passed the area surrounded by the media, it was very silent around them.

Amber sat in the back seat, looking upset. She looked out of the window and her eyes were red.

She had considered to go to the mountain and accepted the proposal. She wanted to finish the proposal at least. After that, Amber would ask about the confusion kept in her mind for a long time.

However, she failed to persuade herself whatever she tried.

Those photos were like a hurdle that she couldn’t get over!

“Amber hasn’t said anything yet. Why did you interrupt?” Rosie looked at Steve with a little anger.

Steve looked serious and was about to talk.

Amber waved her hand and said, “Mommy, it’s OK. I would ask him as well even if daddy didn’t.”

Her eyes twinkled and she murmured with her red lips, “Since he wants to propose to me, I hope that it is perfect. I don’t want it to be imperfect and to feel regretful when I recall the proposal later.”

Since it was a proposal, Amber wanted it to be perfect. When she recalled it in the future, she would smile happily every time.

Rosie frowned and stayed silent.

Indeed, it was good for everyone to figure it out in advance.

Her daughter couldn’t endure the grievance for nothing.

Steve hugged Amber, “Amber, daddy and mommy are here. No one can hurt you!”

The Rolls-Royce came to them fast in the distance.

Steve said with some discontent, “Who he thinks he is? Why is he showing off?”

“He is still too young,” Rosie sighed.

Creak!

The Rolls-Royce stopped.

Jack quickly got off and walked to the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.

Amber and her parents also got off the car.

Steve firstly threw the photos in his hands on Jack’s face.

“Jack Hughes, what will you explain for it?”
