Winner Takes All novel Chapter 289

Jack was grateful for Amber’s reaction but he also felt ashamed of himself. When he looked at the lonely person upstairs, Jack held his hands tightly and raged angrily.

Ivy! His eyes revealed his fury.

At this moment, Mr. Ward, Brent, Lone Wolf, and Daisy all walked over.

“Ms. Daisy, can you help me look after Amber?” Jack took a deep breath and suppressed his rage.

Now Amber really needed some company. But before he could explain clearly, it was obvious that Amber would not want his presence.

After Daisy went upstairs, Lone Wolf immediately knelt on the floor, “Mr. Hughes, I’m sorry, it was my fault last night.”

“It’s got nothing to do with you. I was careless.” Jack waved his hand and looked at Mr. Ward with dignity, “How is the situation with the public relations?”

Mr. Ward was full of worry and smiled helplessly, “It can’t be done. Now public opinion is all-powerful. Once the public senses that public relations are at work, they would be drowned out by the public’s criticisms. Furthermore, someone had leaked out your personal information.” His voice was solemn and full of resignation on this issue.

Mr. Ward was usually calm, steady, and always had a solution for problems. For him to show his fatigue and helplessness on this issue, it was certain that this issue had reached a point of hopelessness.

“Does Ivy want to use this surging issue to bury me?” Jack’s eyes darkened, was full of remorse, and wanted to slap himself.

If he had been more determined yesterday, there wouldn’t be the current calamity. But Ivy threatened the people around him and he had to submit.

“Now there is a surge of opinion against Master and DT. Even those who are associated with Master are being affected. This morning as soon as the stock market started trading, the stocks of Drago Real Estate agency fell so much that it stopped trading within half an hour.”

“Ciara from the Capital also notified that their work had been affected by the public opinion.”

“Furthermore, on Yael’s end, the things at the financial company had been put on hold. Yael and Amelia are on their way over. They should be here soon.”

Mr. Ward said with a weak voice but each was like a clear day thunderbolt. It made Jack feel moments of darkness and hopelessness like he was falling into an abyss.

This… was the power of public opinion!

Ivy didn’t hesitate to use her reputation and activate her fans to wield the shocking blow. It made him helpless and powerless to deflect the blow. The surging trend was unstoppable.

Jack already had the feeling that things were about to crash down on him.

“Why don’t we ask Old Master to talk to Ivy? If she could come out to clarify the matter, then this issue would quickly come to an end.” Brent suddenly suggested.

Jack and Mr. Ward looked at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.

“She has shown that she was willing to risk her reputation in order to attack me. That meant that only one of us will emerge from this. She will never come out to clarify matters.” Jack wiped his face as he said.

Mr. Ward also said helplessly, “If Ivy were to come out to clarify, it will be digging her own grave. Not only will her ploy be exposed and no longer can compete with Master, but her good image in the entertainment industry will also be severely tarnished.”

It was dead silent in the living hall. Everyone was frustrated and the air became stifling.

“Then isn’t it hopeless?” Brent said.
