Winner Takes All novel Chapter 213

What Yael said startled Old Master Vaughn and Vinna. Vinna raised her head and looked at Yael with her beautiful and sparkling eyes. She was touched by Yael’s gesture. She had despised him for killing his own father but she never expected him to speak up for her at this moment.

“Sincerity? What am I unsatisfied with?” Jack laughed and pointed to the bandage on this chest and said sharply, “If it wasn’t for my lucky stars, I would not be laying here but buried six feet under!” His voice was cold and sharp.

Old Master Vaughn and Vinna were both terrified.

“You…” Yale flushed in red and was about to speak.

Jack immediately interrupted him, “Or, do you think that I, as the heir to the Hughes family, is only worth one billion yuan?”

Old Master Vaughn’s expression changed and he became extremely troubled. He was very clear that a billion yuan was nothing compared to the value of an heir to the Hughes family. The wealth of the Hughes family was not a laughing matter.

Even if Jack’s chance of becoming the head of the Hughes family was low, his status was still an heir. If the life of the heir of the Hughes family was only worth a billion yuan, then the Hughes family could freely buy off the lives of the heirs of other wealthy families.

The reason why Old Master Vaughn said a billion yuan was he had calculated and the amount of cash that the Vaughn family could raise in a short period was this much! All the rest of their money was tied up in various projects and could not be touched.

“Mr. Hughes, I’m so sorry, I’m really aware of my mistakes.” Vinna suddenly cried, trembled and tears flowed.

She was very clear that even Yael had now come out to speak out for them and if she were to hesitate any further, she’ll only be asking for more trouble. The most urgent issue now was to beg for Jack’s forgiveness and let her grandfather return quickly to the Capital.

Cries and wailing could be heard from the patient’s room. Jack remained cold and silent.

“Jack, do you regard me as your friend?” Yael’s voice became serious, “If you still take me as your friend, then let this matter pass. A billion is enough. Vinna is already kneeling for your forgiveness. Don’t tell me that you want her to atone for her mistakes with her life?”

“Yael, I never expected you to speak up for an outsider!” Jack’s face was frosty and looked at Yael in surprise.

“I’m not speaking for outsiders. I just feel that this matter should not be blown out of proportion.” After saying, Yael turned to Vinna, smiled, and gave her his right hand, “Stand up, with me here, he won’t dare to do anything to you.”

“Yael…” Vinna’s eyes lit up and looked at Yael with her tear-soaked eyes. At that moment, her heart was very touched. She even felt guilty that she detested and despised Yael in the past when she heard of what he did.

“I fell in love with you the moment I first saw you.” Yael grinned and looked determined, “I’m seen as a beast and someone who killed my father but even the heavens cannot interfere with whoever I choose to love!”

Boom!

Vinna shivered as if she was struck by lightning. At that moment, she became dazed and placed her hand onto Yael’s hand, and slowly got up.

“Vinna, you…” Old Master Vaughn was shocked. They were seeking Jack’s forgiveness. Even if Yael was considered as the Quinn family, his status could not be compared to Jack. If Vinna stood up now, she wasn’t apologizing but was provoking Jack!

Slap!

Yael pulled the sobbing Vinna into his embrace and said arrogantly, “She is my girl and I will protect her!”

One sentence and Vinna was extremely touched. It also made Old Master Vaughn speechless.

Jack narrowed his eyes and the coldness was surging, “Yael, do you still regard me as your friend?” The atmosphere in the patient room became exceedingly cold and tensed.

“Jack, of course, I treat you as a friend, but do you take me as one?” Yael took an aggressive stance and continued, “The Vaughn family came to humbly apologize to you with great sincerity. If you can’t accept it, then if now I want to protect Vinna, are you able to accept this?”

Before Jack could respond, Yael suddenly pointed to the fruit knife that’s on the bedside table. It was the same knife used by Amber to shave the apple.

“Or, if you feel that it is insufficient, then use the knife to cut me. A slash for a slash!”

“Yael!” Vinna was shocked and her beautiful eyes were in tears and horrified.
