Winner Takes All novel Chapter 298

The whole forenoon.

Jack already felt as if he would collapse.

But Amber was still energetic, as if she would have a battle to fight in each of the stores.

What made Jack worry was if he would be like the little dog that he saw before.

He took a deep breath.

And said, "Amber, you need to take a break and have some lunch."

"Oh my, I forgot about that."

Amber hit herself on the forehead and laughed, "Sorry, Jack, I forgot about lunch, what do you want to eat? It's my treat, to make up for it."

"What do you want to eat?" Jack asked.

"I am okay with anything." Amber aid.

"What about hot pot?" Jack suggested.

Amber shook her head, "It's only noon, if we have hot pot we will carry the smell when we go shopping again."

Jack was a little helpless, she really thought a lot about that.

Then he said, "What about Chinese?"

"Chinese is too oily, I will get fat." Amber shook her head again.

"Western food?"

"We have steak every day, I don't wanna have that anymore."

Jack felt a headache, "So what do you want to eat then?"

"Anything is fine." Amber said all serious.

Jack was speechless.

Women...

Jack asked a few more patiently, but after he couldn't get an answer, he bit his teeth, and went to the kiosk to get two bowls of cold noodles, and juice, they sat down on a bench and enjoyed their lunch.

When they went to college together, the two of them used to eat like this a lot, so none of them felt this was inappropriate.

But just as they were eating and having fun together, a man with a big belly walked pass them.

He subconsciously scanned the two of them, and was stunned by Amber's beauty, and stopped walking.

He looked at Jack, and suddenly showed a grin.

"Such a pretty lady, and such a poor guy eating in the hallway, you really deserve better."

Just this one sentence suddenly swept away all the good mood that Jack and Amber had.

Jack's face darkened, and he stood up to look at the man with the big belly.

His eyes were filled with force so that the man had to take a step back.

The man said to Jack, "Little poor kid, what do you want? I am just telling the truth!"

Amber looked at the man.

He was wearing a big golden necklace, golden watch, he was bold and holding a leather hand bag.

He was spreading an aura of a rich person.

She didn't want something so unimportant to ruin hers and Jack's mood.

So she hooked Jack's arm, and said, "Screw it, it's not worth it, you still have to go shopping with me."

Jack was a little calmer after that.

Only then, the fat man saw the bags around Jack and Amber.

He grinned again, "Oh my, I didn't even look at that, so you do have some money, your salary must be at least 10k right?"

"That's none of your business."

Jack replied coldly, and pulled Amber, about to leave.

Amber was his wife, he wouldn't allow anybody to point fingers at her.

The first thing that fat guy had said was clearly just to pick a fight.

Jack didn't want to ruin Amber's mood, otherwise he would have fought back already.

If it was about money, it was simply a few numbers in his eyes.

In this town, there were not many people wealthier than he was.

Even billionaires such as Aiden and Drago were looking up at him.

But what the fat man saw while Jack pulled Amber away was that he waved the white flag, that Jack wanted to leave.

Suddenly, he was more than interested.

His hungry eyes were on Amber, it looked as if he had fire in them, he didn't even hide his lust.

This kind of woman did not belong to a poor boy like Jack.
