Winner Takes All novel Chapter 433

“How do you know?” Amidst his drunkenness, Jeweline asked Jack in astonishment.

Jack rubbed his nose and chuckled, “We’re kind of similar.”

“Really?”

A hint of joy appeared on Jeweline’s youthful face.

At this moment, Jeweline felt that he had finally found someone who could relate to him.

Then, Jack smiled at him.

“Yeah, but although I’m considered as collateral, I’m better than the so-called elites.”

Jeweline’s expression froze and felt empty within again the next second.

His feeling of familiarity towards Jack was crushed in an instant when those words came out. It was even a little disbelieving for him.

“What does this have anything to do with your father’s birthday celebration?” Jack asked.

This question made Jeweline sigh, “Though I am the young master, I become the joke of the night whenever there is a family gathering. How could I be happy with that?”

“Some of the collaterals who are extraordinarily talented don’t even have any respect for me, and they never fail to humiliate me.”

Jack understood Jeweline’s feelings instantly. No one would like getting shamed in front of so many people.

Moreover, Jeweline was the young master of the Hunter family who had the outside world’s attention.

He was flattered and praised by outsiders but became a person who even the collaterals could ridicule upon returning home.

The colossal contrast made Jeweline’s current situation reasonable.

Silence filled the car for a few seconds.

Jack said slowly, “Can I attend your family’s banquet tomorrow?”

“What?”

Jeweline threw Jack a strange glance, “I remember who are all the big shots in this city. I’ve never seen you before, so you must be from another city, aren’t you?”

He was not that stupid after all.

Jack smiled. Since Jeweline was still young, he thought that he could get what he wanted in one shot.

“You are a foreigner, and yet you want to attend my dad’s birthday celebration. Do you know what the banquet meant in this city?”

Jeweline just stared at Jake as if he was a weird person.

Now that he was a little soberer, he became more rational too.

Today’s matter was too strange no matter how he thought of it.

A stranger knocked him out so that they could have a chat.

And now, the stranger wanted to attend his father’s birthday celebration banquet.

Although Jeweline was incapable, that didn’t mean he was dumb.

“Something everyone wants to attend?”

Jack said.

“Yes, exactly!”

Jeweline nodded his head arrogantly, “Hunter family of Jeweline Group is the wealthiest in this city. It’s what all the upper class looks up to. My dad’s birthday would cause a sensation in the whole city every year.”

The wealthiest?

The upper class of this city?

Jack sneered in his heart. The upper class of such a small place is considered as true socialites too?

This wasn’t just about the difference in level.

But between the realm of classes!

“That is why I want to take a look too.”

Jack shrugged, “I’m here for a vacation anyway. And I heard about how prestigious Jeweline Group is, so I wanted to join in the fun as well. Could I attend the banquet as your friend?”

“Pfft, do you think I’m an idiot? I’m leaving.”

Jeweline snorted, opened the door, and got down from the car.

Brent wanted to stop him subconsciously, but Jack spoke first, “Brent, it’s okay.”

Jeweline felt at ease when Brent let go of him.

He turned and threw a sideway glance at Jack, “Forget what I said earlier. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee that nothing will happen to you.”

It was a threat to Jake.

However, it made Brent curl his fingers into fists as he suppressed his urge to slap the heck out of the kid.

Jack only smiled and nodded.

After Jeweline left, Brent got into the car, “Young master, how could you smile when he was threatening you?”

“The brat is only a little over 20 years old. He is used to being arrogant, and he just needed to find some of his pride back by saying things like that.”

Jack wasn’t bothered and rubbed his nose as he smiled, “Plus, I’ve already gotten the information I needed.”

“What information?” Brent’s eyes lit up.

“It’s the birthday of the Jeweline Group’s CEO tomorrow. All the big shots will be attending, and so are we.” Jack said.

“How are we going?” Brent was slightly stunned.
