Winner Takes All novel Chapter 209

This one sentence made the room chillingly cold.

Jack and the others were astonished. A family clan was the accumulation of generations of hard work. Whether be it wealth, status, or other aspects, they were the blood and sweat of generations. How terrifying must this mastermind be to be able to convince a family clan to agree to become the scapegoat?

Amber was shocked speechless.

“Hoof…” Jack heaved a sigh and looked at the information again.

“Jour family of X City?”

The file indicated that the Jour family was only a small family clan in X City. Putting aside the Burton, Vaughn, and Wattson families. The Jour family was insignificant even when compared to Aiden.

They lived at a remote corner of X City and was the local gangster. The entire family was worth barely three hundred million yuan. How could they be a mastermind of such a serious incident? Jack had no dealings with that family and even if there was a grudge, they wouldn’t have the gall to do it!

They also won’t have the ability to avoid the scrutiny of intense investigations for three days.

“What a joke!” Jack slapped close the file and threw it into the bin.

Aiden looked at the bin and said grudgingly, “But this was the result of so many investigations…”

“All yielded the same results and that’s why it’s so fishy.” Mr. Ward interrupted Aiden and continued, “It’s possible if there were some discrepancies. But to be identical? Isn’t that like following a script?”

Aiden was stunned and dumbfounded.

“Isn’t it a joke for this mastermind to present a scapegoat after three days? How was the mastermind able to convince the Jour family to become the scapegoat?”

A family with generations of hard work ended up becoming a scapegoat and possibly destroyed from it. The price of such a sacrifice could only be achieved through threats and force. It’s obviously impossible.

“Master, what do you intend to do?”

Jack shrugged his shoulders and laughed, “Whatever father wants to do.”

“Understood.” Mr. Ward turned to leave. Aiden hesitated and thereafter left with Mr. Ward.

It was so quiet in the room that a pin drop could be heard.

Jack’s smile faded and turned cold and pondered. It was interesting that this mastermind could convince an entire family clan to become a scapegoat. A fox could hide its tail once but for how long could it continue to hide?

“Jack…” Amber spoke.

Jack waved his hand, “Amber, get me the file. I want to have another look at it.”

After taking the file, Jack took a picture of it and sent it to Yael.

Jack: You are from X City. How well do you know the Jour family?

Yael: Talk to you at the hospital.

…

Jade Spring Villa, inside the First box.

Ciara sat opposite Old Master Vaughn and Vinna. Their investigations yielded the same results at the same time. With Old Master Vaughn’s experience, he could tell that something wasn’t right.

“The report is incorrect!” Ciara said.

Old Master Vaughn nodded and said with no hard feelings, “Identical results from several intelligence networks. Regardless of how you see it, it looked like the mastermind placed these for us to see it.”

“Furthermore, the Jour family of X City didn’t have a reason to do it, and neither would they dare to,” Ciara said.

“What if it was them?” Cinna suddenly said.

Ciara frowned and glared coldly at Vinna, “Boobs for brains.”

“You…” Vinna was furious.

“Shut up, Vinna.” Old Master Vaughn silenced Vinna.
