Winner Takes All novel Chapter 400

In the dark and oppressive night.

The rolling thunders continued. A storm was brewing. The air became thinner and stifling. The blinding headlights of the Rolls Royce lit up everything in its path as the car rushed down the hill.

Screech! The car stopped.

Jack got out of the car and was ready to kill. He wore a business suit and as he walked forward, it looked like the dark clouds were following him. He was ferocious and threatening. Mr. Ward and Brent followed behind trembling with fear. They could feel the doom that Jack was about to unleash.

They only felt it once during Jack’s wedding when Sophie was killed. If it wasn’t for Sophie’s repeated exhortations and Patrick and the guests’ presence including Yael’s comfort, Jack would have turned into a raging lunatic.

But now both of them did not stop Jack as they knew that tonight, anything they say would be useless. Jack would not stop until he drew blood tonight.

At Sophie’s graveyard.

Elissa held the urn tightly. Her gaze was erratic as she grinned as if she was having a beautiful dream. She could wait. After all, Jack was already on his way. As long as she got the hundred million yuan, all of her problems would be over.

If she didn’t do this, she would definitely die. But if she tried this, she would probably live. Elissa was out of options and naturally chose the latter. But both these options were her opinions.

Elissa lowered her head and her right hand shifted to where the urn was cracked open. She grabbed a handful of ashes. She looked at the white ashes and laughed with despise, “A slut in life, is still a slut in death.” After saying, she gently released her fingers.

The night wind blew and the fine ashes scattered into the wind. Elissa didn’t care. She looked down and even spat a mouthful of saliva into the ashes in the urn.

“Bitch, if I don’t live comfortably, your family will also live in agony. Once I get the money, even if I don’t scatter your ashes tonight, I’ll find a way to scatter them eventually. You, mother and son, plotted against my family. I won’t let you be buried in peace!”

She frowned as she looked at the time on her phone and cursed, “Damn it, why isn’t he here yet?”

As she said, a cold voice came from not too far away, “I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”

He was here! Elissa was overjoyed and her eyes lit up. It was a dark night and when she looked over she could only roughly make out the image of a man. Elissa was joyful as she quickly picked up her flashlight and shone in that direction.

When Jack’s face appeared, she immediately smiled radiantly.

“The money is here!” Elissa thought. She totally didn’t notice the aggression and ferocity that Jack radiated. She demanded shamelessly, “Where’s the money?”

“The money is on its way. A hundred million will take some time to prepare.” Jack narrowed his eyes as he was ready to kill. He placed his hands in his pockets and acted calmly. He wasn’t looking at Elissa but was staring at his mother’s urn.

When he saw that the urn was broken, it was like a sledgehammer hitting onto his heart.

“On the way? Are you taking me for a fool?” Elissa frowned and looked ferocious. She stood up with the urn in her hands, “Do you really think that our family can be so easily fooled and bullied? You useless fool why can’t you transfer the money? It’ll only take a word from you!”

Jack remained silent.

When Elissa saw that Jack was silent, she immediately raged.

She raised the urn and shrieked, “I want a hundred million transferred to my account. If not you better not blame me for being ruthless. I’ll shatter your mother’s urn and with tonight’s wind, I guarantee that you can’t even find a speck remaining!”

Jack narrowed his eyes and stared daggers towards Elissa.

Almost at the same time.

Mr. Ward yelled angrily, “Haven’t you dealt with money? Do you think that anyone wealthy is God?”
