Winner Takes All novel Chapter 478

In the Knight’s Villa, a fierce argument was going on, which was brought about because of Mr. Ward, who had come back finally.

“What do you mean? All I get is just ‘leave it alone’?” Tiana stared at Mr. Ward angrily as if she was going to go bananas in any minute.

“Yes! Leave it alone at the moment.” Mr. Ward nodded calmly as usual, paying no attention to Tiana’s anger.

“Mr. Knight, do you agree with him?” Tiana turned to Steve Knight.

Seeing this, Steve and Rosie didn’t know what to say.

It was Tiana who had been doing her best to help after Jack’s accident.

What was more, it was thanks to Tiana’s efforts that the tension between Jack and Amber had been eased.

But Mr. Ward asked Tiana to stop having a finger in the pie as soon he was back, which was as disappointing as kicking down the ladder.

“Mr. Ward...” Steve said to Mr. Ward in the hope of wiggle room.

Mr. Ward glanced at Steve raising his eyebrows, “I care my young master more than you do. Don’t you believe me?”

Hearing this, Steve had to bite back his words.

At the sight of this, Tiana suddenly sneered, “Huh! It turns out I have been given the cold shoulder.”

“Tiana...” Amber, who had been silent finally spoke.

She knew what kind of man Mr. Ward was, so she also felt confused at Mr. Ward’s decision.

Seeing what was happening, she stopped for a second and continued, “Can you give me a moment to ask Mr. Ward about it?”

Tiana nodded though fuming with anger.

Although Amber was very weak, she managed to stand up, “Mr. Ward, please come upstairs with me.”

Because she had suffered quite a wear and tear before, it was impossible for Amber to recover completely in just a few days although she began to take food regularly with three meals a day.

Rosie came up to help Amber but she was refused, “Mom, I need a moment with Mr. Ward.”

They went directly to Steve’s study room upstairs.

After Mr. Ward helped Amber sit down, she asked, “Mr. Ward, you are not someone who’s ruthless to others. You must’ve got a reason for it, right?”

She guessed there must be a reason based on her understanding of Mr. Ward.

Having worked for Patrick Hughes for a long time, he was sent by Patrick Hughes to assist Jack. He was an expert in dealing with people.

“Yes. Indeed.” Mr. Ward nodded. “I have got a plan which needs to be carried out secretly, so it’s inappropriate to have Tiana involved in it.”

“Can you tell me about it?” asked Amber.

“Not at the moment.” Mr. Ward shook his head and was hesitant at the sight of Amber who looked weak and pale.

Mr. Ward’s reaction was clear to Amber so she asked tenderly raising her eyebrows, “Is there anything else you would like to tell me?”

“Phew!” Mr. Ward sighed and didn’t talk.

Instead, he opened the door cautiously to check the corridor and turned around to look out of the window.

After everything was checked, he walked up to Amber and whispered, “I have confirmed that young master is still alive.”
