Winner Takes All novel Chapter 256

Brown was still sitting on the chair lazily smoking his cigar, when Jack followed Demeter into the surveillance room.

Warren was sitting on the side.

When Warren saw them coming in, he stood up and smiled.

"Jack, please sit down."

Demeter introduced, "This is the warden here, the head of the black hell."

The highest person here in black hell!

Jack was a little surprised, but he thought that it must be normal to see the warden after winning the fights.

And to be honest, he knew that he did not deserve all the victory.

If it wasn't Brown who did that, he wouldn't have had the chance to even get to the last fight.

So seeing the Warren must have something to do with that.

Jack's heart lifted when he thought about this being if he could get out or not.

Brown said mildly to him, "Sit down, you are already allowed to get out of black hell."

Jack looked at Brown, he felt a stone lift up in his heart, then he sat down.

It was quiet in the surveillance room.

Jack felt weak after the fight, even sitting on the chair, he was struggling every second.

He felt pain all over his body, his face was pale, the sweat running down.

But he didn't show that he was hurting, his eyes were filled with determination.

"It was not bad."

Brown laughed and nodded to Warren.

"Your disposition, your abilities, your sense of responsibility were all good." Warren added.

Jack looked very surprised, did they call him there to praise him again?

The pain in his body, and the time that was running didn't allow him to keep sitting there anymore.

He had to go home.

He took a deep breath, and asked the question at heart, "Mr. Brown, do you know my father?"

"Mister?"

"Brown raised his brows, and laughed, then he said, "Brown is just my given name, my family name is Hughes."

Brown Hughes?

Patrick Hughes?

Jack knitted his brows, and opened his mouth, suddenly, he understood.

"Do you get it?"

Brown smiled softly, "You should call me uncle."

Jack had an idea in his head, which was now confirmed by Brown.

Suddenly, Jack had the feeling of being cornered.

His fathers brother was in the black hell?

He had been here for more than 20 years?

Wait!

The shock in Jack's eyes deepened.

Twenty-something years was a very general number.

He could guess some things from that.

Twenty-something years ago was about the time when he was born, it was also about the time when his father was named the heir of Hughes family, and it was also the time when Brown went to prison.

This general number included so many things, this number made many things seem much clearer.

With Brown's abilities, he must have been one of the heirs at that time!

"Puh!"

Jack was still in shock, when Brown took a hit on the cigar, and blew the smoke out on Jack's face.

Jack had to cough because of that.

Through the smoke, Jack could see that Brown's eyes went cold.

With that, his voice was heard.

"With your intellect, you must have guessed by now, that I was sent to prison by your father, right?"

The coldness in his voice made Jack freeze.

Fear filled him.

His father sent his brother to prison, and let him stay there for more than 20 years.

The hate behind all this...

When a person’s freedom was completely ruined, there would be hate forming against each other, even a relationship such as in a family, would suffer.
