Winner Takes All novel Chapter 265

The voice was soft.

Yet it made Yael Quinn smile faintly.

When he turned around, he saw that Jack Hughes was looking at him with obscure eyes.

He shrugged his shoulders and put his hands behind his head.

"Sort of."

As he spoke, Yael’s gaze turned profound as he muttered.

"You know what? I used to be just like you. I had a mother who loved me so much that she was willing to give me everything, even the stars in the sky."

"Our family was quite happy, and my parents doted me. I was part of the wealthy Quinn family in X City. I do not need to worry about food and clothing. Although my father's position in the family wasn't too high, he was smart after all. He made a good living in the Quinn family."

"But one day, I suddenly felt that the sky had fallen and the whole world had changed."

Speaking of this, Jack clearly saw that Yael’s deep eyes gradually surfaced with hatred and hostility.

"At that time, my mother had just gotten pregnant with her second child. Just laugh at me if you want. In fact, I actually felt quite ridiculous knowing it at the time. After all, I was an adult at that time, and the age gap was a bit big."

"But it is what it is. As an older brother, can I stop my parents?"

The cigarette burned out.

He slowly lowered his head and lit up another cigarette.

As he smoked it, he said.

"And then what happened!? My damn father betrayed my mother when she was pregnant with her second child! He was always with a mistress in her twenties and didn't come home anymore. He didn't even care about the family, and all the affairs of the Quinn family that he controlled were all put aside."

"This incident alarmed the entire Quinn family. Well, being in a wealthy family, they loved their reputation. The Quinn family head intervened in this matter and strictly ordered my father to break up with that mistress, or he would deprive my father of all the affairs he controlled in the family. But my father said nothing, saying that he and that mistress were deeply in love."

The tone of his voice became a little angry.

Jack did not stop him and listened quietly.

He had closed himself off now.

This was the first time since he had actually talked to someone in the past week.

"Actually, I know what my father had in mind. He thought that he could do what he wanted as he was a member of the Quinn family. Even though he would be deprived of all his affairs, but with the status of a Quinn family member, he could still have a wealthy family and continue a damned love affair with that mistress."

"At that time, my mother was so angry that she was hospitalized several times. I had also approached that little mistress a few times. But she used my father’s affection towards her and threatened to get my mother killed. The rise of a mistress?"

While saying that, he slowly raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist.

With hatred in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "I really hate myself. I should have just strangled her to death back then. There wouldn't have been the aftermath if I had done so."

"What happened?" Jack asked.

Yael held the cigarette in his right hand and rubbed his face.

When his hands left his face, his face was already full of chills.

"It was a night, and it was raining heavily. I remember very clearly that my father drank a lot of alcohol as he was facing a lot of pressure from my mother, I, the Quinn family and the mistress. When the mistress was crying, he was really about to kill my mother."

"Then he came home on a rainy night. It was the first time he'd been home ever since my mother was eight months pregnant."

"And then, my damned father killed my mother. He then took out the baby in my mother's belly and stabbed on the baby’s belly too!"

The pupils in Jack’s obscure eyes contracted.

At this moment, his brows were furrowed to the extreme.

The cigarette in his hand was twisted into two.

Yael’s body was trembling, his eyes were red and flushing with tears, but he was full of murderous intent.

He raised his hands with a sobbing voice and gestured.
