There were many powerful people in the capital city.
Although the castle of the Burton family was in the mountains,
But what happened tonight, like thunder and lightning, was quickly spread to all the intelligence networks of the capital city.
The Burton family was broken into.
The Burton family was bombed and there were even fighters there.
One by one, intelligence had been sent to the desk of all kinds of forces.
Everyone was shocked.
This thing got the whole city astir.
In the capital city, the Burton family was the richest, whose position was unshakable.
Who?
Who dared to be the enemy of the Burton family?
For a time, some people gloated, some were doubtful and some were happy.
The Burton family had become a laughingstock for all people!
However, all forces were pursuing the cause of this matter.
When intelligence information was constantly appearing in front of some people, these people felt more and more shocked.
The capital city tonight was like the rain in the night.
It was blowing hard. The city was threatened by black clouds. The lightning was flashing and thunder was crashing. And the rain was pouring down in torrents.
In a hotel of the capital city,
In the room, Jack sat with Brent, Mr. Ward and Yael.
Brent and Yael were smoking.
Mr. Ward was reading book.
Jack had nothing to do, looking out the window at the heavy rain and lightning, in a daze.
Tonight’s incident also shocked him.
His father’s hegemony left an indelible impression on him.
When he was a child, every time he was in conflict with others, he was looking forward to his father’s help.
But he didn’t have a father, but the person who conflicted with him had a father.
When he was a child, whenever Jack conflicted with others, no matter who was right or wrong, Jack eventually fell into the disadvantage.
When he was wrong, he was beaten.
But when he was right, he was also beaten.
His mother was exhausted with raising him alone. Every time Jack was aggrieved, he didn’t dare to tell his mother. He hid in a dark corner, like a dog, and silently licked his wound. When he recovered, he would face his mother and show a smile.
It had been more than 20 years.
He finally felt the feeling of having a father.
It was strong and shocking. Jack had mixed feelings about having a father.
The parents were in the next room, and his father was helping his mother with her injuries.
And he consciously came to Mr. Ward’s room.
Because he knew that when his father and mother met again more than 20 years later, his mother must have a lot to say to his father.
And he also had something to say to his father, but that was after his parents finished their talk.
"Mr. Ward, stop pretending!"
Yael’s voice broke the silence in the room.
Jack looked back and saw that Yael had stood up and opened Mr. Ward’s book.
To Jack’s surprise, there was a book hidden in the book.
But the cover of that book…
The cover of the book made Jack blush.
Mr. Ward’s body trembled and he was in a panic.
He quickly put away the book, angrily glared at Yael, "Kiddo, I’m committed to reading only the sages’ book!"
"Hum! You are just a rascal!"
Yael rolled his eyes upwards.
Jack and Brent looked at each other.
If it wasn’t for Yael, they didn’t expect that Mr. Ward would read that kind of book.
Mr. Ward’s lofty image in their hearts had completely collapsed.
Then,
Yael walked to Jack and reached out his right hand, "Name your price, and I’ll be your man tonight."
What?
Jack shivered, blushed, and looked at Yael in horror, "What do you mean? I’m not that kind of person."
Yael’s sudden action also shocked Mr. Ward and Brent.
Did Yael discover Young master’s secret?
Suddenly, Mr. Ward’s eyes lit up and he became excited, "Young master, don’t you promise him?"
How could Jack promise him?
Jack was not calm and wanted to explain.
Mr. Ward stamped, "Yael agreed to your invitation."
