Winner Takes All novel Chapter 296

The bedroom looked dusky.

There was only dim light from the bedside table lamp.

Amber Knight leaned against the head of her bed. Her face looked tired and haggard but she did not feel like sleeping at all. She also had bloodshot eyes.

She looked lonely and sad, and this made the others feel bad.

In fact, she had almost spent the long night this way for three days straight.

She was repressing, controlling, and suppressing her feelings.

As she knew that what had happened was crucial to Jack Hughes.

At this moment, if she was not able to suppress her feelings, it would only make Jack be in a more desperate situation.

As his wife, if she did not help him, who else was going to help him?

She was Jack’s wife. The only rational thought reminded her that she should stand by Jack quietly to support him!

She knew how Jack had come this far.

He had not only devoted sweat but also blood.

She loved Jack so she was willing to wait for him for three years.

She was not willing to backstab her beloved man at this crucial moment. It would only make Jack’s effort vanish like bubbles.

Amber really could not do this!

She also knew Jack’s personality but there was ironclad proof for what Ivy Hughes had exposed.

She did not want to doubt him. However, she was a woman and the matter was so sensitive.

This kind of entangled emotion was like a sharp knife provoking her nerves without mercy, giving her indescribable pain.

The sound of the promises that Jack had made to her lingered around her ears.

Those promises he made, were they true?

This kind of thought was in Amber’s mind all the time.

Creak!

The door was opened.

Yet, Amber did not move at all.

It was because she knew that those who could enter her room these few days were either Daisy Hill or Jack.

And for now, it was impossible for Daisy to enter her room.

“Amber…”

Looking at Amber who was on the bed, Jack felt heartbroken.

He walked towards the bed in guilt, knelt on the floor, and showed a gentle smile, “Thank you!”

“I am fine. Go and do your work.” Amber forced a smile as she looked at Jack.

However, the haggard face with bloodshot eyes made Jack feel as if a knife was piercing his heart.

Before that, Amber was extremely pretty!

Yet, she had become like this because of the matter.

Slap!

Suddenly, Jack slapped his face.

The slap was strong and powerful.

Amber’s facial expression had changed, “What are you doing?”

She immediately raised her hand to rub Jack’s face as she exclaimed.

Even so, the red fingerprint was quickly seen.

“I am sorry. I had made you suffer for these few days.” Jack felt extremely guilty.

He had promised to bring happiness to this woman in front of him!

“It is fine. I am really fine.” Amber felt bad about him. She rubbed Jack’s face and said while shaking her head.

Suddenly.

Jack passed his phone in front of Amber.

“We won!”

His right thumb pressed the play button of Ivy’s apologizing video as he said.

Amber was suddenly absent-minded.

She had not followed the media for few hours.

As Ivy’s apologizing voice sounded in the video.

Amber’s small body could not help to tremble and her pretty hand which touched Jack slowly dropped.

She took the phone and stared at it with her bloodshot eyes.

Her eyes slowly became a blur as tears could be seen in her eyes.

Her small body was also trembling.

In the video, Ivy narrated what had happened that night.
