Winner Takes All novel Chapter 271

The Quinn Mansion was filled with guests and full of laughter.

However in contrast the atmosphere within the inner hall in was deathly quiet.

The old master Quinn was looking intently at the couplet given to him as one of his birthday gifts, he was extremely furious.

Kevin and the other members of the Quinn family were from the third generation, and were all full of discontent and indignation.

There were also a few middle aged family members within the Quinn family, they were gloomy and eyes were filled with anger.

“Grandfather, who is that son of a bitch Jack? The so called heir of the Hughes family? And that Yael, does he really think he has someone so powerful backing him?”

Kevin was the first to speak, he had a fiery and exuberant personality and gestured with his hand as he said, “As long as you say the word then I will directly go and throw them out of the Quinn Mansion right now.”

“Kevin, shut it!”

A middle aged man shouted immediately.

He was Kevin’s father, Morrison Quinn, and was the eldest of the second generation of the Quinn family.

“Father, why must I be quiet? The gift that Yael has given to grandfather is clearly curse of death. And how could the Quinn family give in to this?” Kevin chided angrily.

Slap!

Morrison slapped Kevin’s face and said, “Our elders are here, what right do you have to say these things?”

Kevin felt much resentment being slapped, however in the end he lowered his head and backed away.

“Sigh.”

The old master Quinn sighed and glanced at Kevin rather helplessly.

The third generation of Quinn family members, among the ones who were part of the main blood line, to him none were worth a glance at.

Although he strictly followed the rules of blood first, he knew he had to face the reality.

All of the third generation family members within the main blood line, were all very proud and arrogant, however their temperaments and abilities were all rather mediocre, they were insignificant.

As long as there can be someone like Yael, no, granted that there can be someone like Amelia, then the old master Quinn will be able to enjoy his life to the full.

“Father, they are here for…”

Morrison said to the old master Quinn in a deep voice.

“Shut it!”

the old master Quinn pupil’s dilated as he shouted out loudly interrupting Morrison.

Kevin and the others felt confused as to what was happening.

As a matter of fact, this was something that the Quinn family and Madam Hughes had cooperated together with to plan and within the Quinn family only very few of the members knew this.

However no one within the third generation of family members knew.

After the old master Quinn’s loud shout, everyone in the inner hall went quiet.

Everyone held their breath while shooting looks at the old master Quinn rather apprehensively from time to time.

After a few moments.

the old master Quinn suddenly exhaled and with a rather reluctant smile said, “You’re considered as guests here, in addition to this you are the heir of the Hughes family, thus I should like to greet you personally.”

What?!

Sending the couplet and causing troubles on the banquet, were these not enough to drive them out ? And he wanted to personally greet him?

Everyone was shocked, stunned to the spot.

When they had returned to their senses.

the old master Quinn had already left the inner hall.

“Brother, what does father want to do?”

“Although the Quinn family of X City cannot be compared with the Hughes family, however as some of the richest of X City, we will not tolerate being provoked and insulted by the Hughes family!”

“Sending a couplet that is only to be sent during a funeral for his birthday banquet, a clear curse to the old master Quinn . How is he able to accept this?”

Morrison looked sullen when he suddenly shouted sternly, “Everyone be quiet, and listen to the old master!”

Meanwhile as he took a step forward, Morrison then gave an instruction to Kevin in a low voice, “Kevin, gather together a dozen bodyguards and make them guard outside the main room. If something unexpected happened at the birthday banquet then listen out for the sound of a glass breaking to take action.”

The ‘guest’ was here with ill intent.

The old master Quinn planned to greet him with courtesy, however had to be on alert.

What’s more, Morrison knew the whole story well, thus was rather dreading the visit of Jack and Yael.

The incident regarding the Burton family in the capital city was a lesson to be learned.

While the old master Quinn was walking to the front hall with many of his descendants.

He attracted the attention of those on the way and greeted them as he passed.

Among the guests were big and powerful giants and tycoons within each of their respective industries, and a few of them are of strong authority.

The Quinn family was located within X City, which demonstrated they existed at the top of the pyramid.

On this position they were able to overlook everyone, and also make everyone look back up at them.

The old master Quinn ’s face was full of smiles as he greeted everyone one by one.

At once he started to search for Jack and company who he saw were to be sitting in the corner.

At the corner table, Jack and Yael took their seats.

Because they were all rich and powerful people within X City, some of them knew of Yael and in addition to this Brent’s towering figure was quite oppressing.

As a result, Jack and his company were the only people at this table.

Jack was looking indifferent as usual, Yael looked both cynical and unconcerned, and Brent looked calm, while Joe was smiling.

However in contrast Amelia who was sitting next to Yael had her head lowered with her palms clasped together full of sweat.

Since two years ago, she had lost any right to be involved with any affairs relating to the Quinn family.

So since this was a birthday banquet for the elders of the family, she would just showed her respect and then leave directly after sending the gifts..

She had a weak personality, never complained, therefore she had never objected to the way she was treated.

However today was Old Master Quinn’s birthday banquet and had come here with Jack and Yael which was obviously violating the rules of the Quinn family.
