Winner Takes All novel Chapter 477

Both Rena and Isaac looked at Jack confused.

It had been silent for a few seconds before Carlos’s voice slowly came from the room, “Come in, Mr. Hughes. Rena, I need a moment with Jack.”

Hearing this, Rena and Isaac became even more confused looking at Jack.

They didn’t say anything but turned around and waited in the yard.

Jack rolled the handle on his wheelchair towards the bedroom where Carlos was sitting up in his armchair with a serious look without any awkwardness.

“Mr. Yales, you haven’t been out for three days.” said Jack.

Carlos’s wrinkled face suddenly blushed and he looked down to cough awkwardly. When he looked up again, he became calm looking at Jack with appreciation.

“You are brilliant! I can say that you are the smartest guy of your generation whom I’ve ever known in my life. After I saw the video, I wondered whether you would sense something. To my surprise, you did.” Carlos spoke highly of Jack.

“Thank you, Mr. Yales.” Jack nodded.

Seeing this, Carlos was more satisfied with him but at the same time felt kind of upset. 'If we had encountered him earlier, he would have been the best fit for Rena who also has a crush on him. It’s a pity that an affinity is yet to reach.' Carlos thought to himself.

He took a deep breath trying to restrain his depression and stared at Jack with his blazing eyes, “As what you have thought.”

Jack nodded with his gleaming eyes, “I want to see him.”

“It’s not the time yet.” said Carlos shaking his hand.

“Okay.” Jack nodded firmly and then turned around to leave with his wheelchair.

Carlos was quite surprised that Jack didn’t even hesitate for a second, which caught him off guard.

He had to bite back the words he had prepared.

When Jack was about to roll his wheelchair out of the door, he stopped and said, “Well, it’s no big deal to have been drunk for once. Tough times don’t last.”

Hearing this, Carlos was struck dumb and a flush mounted to his face all the sudden. He signed rubbing his forehead, “You won’t understand. You are still too young.”

Jack smiled and didn’t say anything.

Rena and Isaac stood in the yard looking at each other without any idea of what happened.

They were confused and shocked to see how Carlos had changed after talking with Jack.

Why would Jack asked “Who’s the lackey?”

“There he is.” Said Isaac when he saw Jack coming out of the room.

Rena rushed up to help Jack with his wheelchair.

She asked curiously, “What have you talked with grandpa?”

Jack shook his hand and said, “Please send me to the east yard.”

He didn’t want to talk about it, as it was something that he was cagey about at that moment. Otherwise, Carlos would have told Rena and Isaac about it.

Jack was as calm as usual on the way to the east yard, while Rena and Isaac were in doubts. They ran into the members from the Grand Freemasons, who greeted the three respectfully.

At the same time, a young man wearing yellow hair was hovering nervously in the east yard.

He looked scared while looking around as if he was trying to find something. He tightened his clothes and clenched his teeth, becoming worried.
