Winner Takes All novel Chapter 425

Mr. Ward hurried back and saw Amber crying without any sign of stopping, and he immediately felt a deep sense of regret.

In his eyes, Jack and Amber certainly had some disparity between their positions in society.

In terms of their background and reputation, the Hughes and Knight family were indeed not of the same world.

However, Mr. Ward was very aware that Jack and Amber’s marriage was not an indication that Amber was marrying into an affluent family. In contrast, Jack was the lucky one here.

All the while, Amber’s assistance and support towards Jack was selfless and endless.

Now, it was regretful that such a thing had happened.

“Mr. Ward, is anything wrong?”

Amber raised her hand to wipe off her tears as she asked with a sobbing tone.

Mr. Ward came back to his senses, “Young lady, your parents have arrived.”

“Dad and mum?”

Amber was startled for a moment, then she drooped her head as if in deep thought.

Both Mr. Ward and Daisy had a drastic change of expression.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the family solely depended on Amber alone.

The next second, Amber raised her head, and on that exhausted face, there was a forced smile.

“Mr. Ward, Ms. Hill, please attend to my parents first. I will come down after washing up.”

Mr. Ward and Daisy both left the bedroom.

While Amber was wiping away her tears, she was muttering to herself, “Amber, you must stay strong. You can’t let dad and mum to realize this. You are the one who have chosen him.”

“It’s alright, everything will be fine. Aren’t you always strong and determined? You will be able to overcome this.”

“Dad and mum has come from so far to see the baby, so I can’t make them upset.”

After sucking in a deep breath, Amber stretched her body and tried hard to put a smile on her face. Then, he exited the washroom.

In the living room downstairs, Jack was busy attending to Steve and Rosie.

Seeing that Mr. Ward and Daisy was coming downstairs, Steve stood up and said jokingly, “Mr. Ward, what is wrong with you just now? Why did you run away at the sight of us?”

“I have something urgent to attend to, and at that moment I was a little lost.”

Mr. Ward explained while revealing an apologetic smile, “I hope you can forgive me for that.”

Steve waved his hand nonchalantly. He wasn’t someone to be worried about such trivial matters.

Rosie asked, “Jack, where is Amber?”

Jack’s hand slightly shook as he was pouring tea.

Steve hastily urged him, “That’s right, let Amber come down now. We want to meet our grandchild.”

Daisy interjected hurriedly, “Ma’am, the young lady has just woken up. She is washing herself now.”

“This girl, she has changed ever since she is pregnant. It seems that she is always sleeping.” Steve frowned, “How can she be so lazy? I will definitely give her a piece of my mind later on.”

Rosie knitted her brows slightly as she glanced at Steve sideways.

Jack smiled faintly as he explained, “Dad, it is not easy to be pregnant, you know. We should let Amber take her time and rest more.”

Upon hearing that, Steve smiled.

Rosie’s frown also turned into a casual smile.

As a parent, although he wanted to criticize his daughter, how could he actually bring himself to do that?

Everyone knew how a difficult life a woman had to gone through to be pregnant.

Jack’s timely explanation had shown to the couple how much he loved Amber.

At that moment, Amber slowly descended the stairs.

Daisy was the first to notice that. She immediately went forward to hold her.

“Amber!”
