Jack was speechless.
Was this a joke?
"Do you think I am joking?" Patrick said, as if he guessed Jack's thoughts.
Jack was quiet.
Patrick laughed freely, "You will understand the difference."
The way of a King, overbearing, benevolent...
Jack closed his mouth, eyes were full of thought, what his father said seemed a bit like a joke, but he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there were some differences.
Soon, he came to a magnificent house.
There was a certain distance between this house and the surrounding houses and pavilions, no matter the scale or the construction style, they all revealed a majestic atmosphere, a magnificent and solemn feeling.
It seemed to stand out from the crowd.
"Young Master, this is the residence of the Master." Mr. Ward said softly.
Jack looked at the magnificent house in front of him, and his heart trembled inexplicably.
This feeling was very complicated and hard to describe.
But he subconsciously clenched his fists, and his eyes were firmer than ever.
Then he entered the house.
A group of domestic slaves are busy.
Patrick took Jack and the others into the lobby.
It was an antique decoration style, every detail showed the superiority of the Hughes family.
The priceless antique vases and the calligraphy and paintings of some famous masters in the living room seemed to have become the foil for the decoration.
After they have been seated.
Mr. Ward made tea for Jack.
After doing everything, he left the hall with Brent and Daisy and closed the door.
It was quiet in the lobby.
Patrick sat quietly in his wheelchair, sipping his tea silently.
Jack sat aside and looked his father up and down.
His father looked a little weak in that moment, but he would recover from it.
This made Jack relieved.
He had no mother, if he lost his father.
Then life would have no home, but only a journey to death.
"It was really close this time."
Patrick put down his tea and broke the silence first.
"Who did it?"
Jack frowned as he asked.
Ghost was the tenth killer on the Azrael List.
To put it bluntly, there was probably no one in the world that Ghost would not dare to kill.
But the point was, there must be some kind of motivation, right?
Ghost wouldn't return for no reason to assassinate his father after the failure.
"Haha, don't ask too much. Knowing too much is not good for you."
Patrick waved his hand and changed the subject, "Aren't you curious, how I survived?"
This had hit Jack in his heart.
He was really curious.
He had personally seen the strength of Ghost in the Four Impressions Club.
Both Brent and Daisy were the top killers of the Azrael List.
The security team was also the top team that protected his father all the time.
Even the usual security team of the Four Impressions Club was definitely of superior quality.
