Winner Takes All novel Chapter 495

The violent collision threw Jack Hughes completely out of the Hummer.

Jack landed face-down on the ground. The pain was so severe, he felt as if his body was breaking into pieces.

Fresh blood was trickling from the corners of his mouth.

There was also blood gurgling in his nostrils.

However, Jack was completely unconcerned about his own injuries. Braced by his consciousness, he crawled slowly towards the Hummer.

Thanks to the sitting position, Rena was not thrown out of the car after the collision. She was still inside the Hummer.

“Rena … Rena …”

Jack’s face was bleeding profusely. As he crawled slowly across the road by pushing his body with his hands, his body left a crimson trail of blood on the ground.

Having lost all sensations in his legs, his movements were propelled solely by his hands. This short five meters’ distance away from the car seemed like a never-ending road.

On the other side of the road, after the collision.

The black SUV also came to a standstill. The front of the car was completely crushed beyond recognition, the bonnet was bumped wide open, whirling black smoke was rising out of the engine like a chimney.

In the car compartment, all airbags were activated and blown up.

That was visual proof of the sheer violence of the impact.

Bang!

The somewhat distorted car door was forcefully kicked open.

A pair of shiny and polished black boots slowly landed on the ground.

Tap … tap …

The pair of black boots were approaching Jack, the pace was neither too fast nor too slow, causing the neatly pressed trousers to sway gently.

The driver was calm and collected. As he approached, there was an accompanying “click” sound, which echoed through the silent alleyway.

Jack, who finally crawled next to the Hummer, was gripped by terror.

He heard a "click" very clearly, it was, beyond a doubt, the sound of a ... pistol being cocked.

"Have you also planned and set everything up, up to this moment?"

Jack’s eyes were red. Despite his weakness and his rationality making him try his best to suppress his fears, he still could not hide the look of panic in his eyes.

“To be precise, I have not counted on it.”

The voice rang out suddenly, the speaker said with a teasing smile, “Rather, before killing a dog, I had to anticipate and plan the energy I require, to deal with the possibility of the dog escaping. You thought you were safe after you ran away. Yet I could come after you without knowing and then nudge you into hell …”

That voice …

Jack’s body trembled, he looked up in horror.

Even though they had only met once, the face that caught his eye still caused an uncontrollable surge of disgust and hatred.

And it sent a vicious chill down his spine.

Jack cried in astonishment, "Felix Hughes?!"

He recalled the first time he went to the Hughes family.

He had wielded his sword angrily, threatening to kill Madam Hughes, and it was this person who had stopped him with a gunshot.

This person left Jack a very deep impression!

"What has it got to do with you?" Jack’s face showed utter disbelief.

At this moment, Felix was looking down on Jack, from his more superior position.

His eyes betrayed his smug and gleeful feelings.

And even more so, his smile displayed his deep sense of cruel tease, as if he was a cat playing with a mouse.

“When I see how pathetic you look now, I cannot describe the joy I feel.”

Felix pretended to sigh, " I can’t even imagine how powerful and prestige you were when you were in the Hughes’ family, even Madam Hughes was suppressed by you, but look at you now, you can’t even stand up, just like a dying dog!

Jack's expression was dark, and his eyes flashed with anger and defiance.

Instinctively he grabbed his right leg and asked through gritted teeth, “So you caused all this too?”

“Oh, you are quite clever. I hid it so well but you realized in the end.”

Felix’s expression radiated smugness, he started shaking the gun in his hand. Then he shook his head in fake sympathy, “What a pity though, you found it out too late. When you and this woman in the car are dead, then no one will find out that it was I who killed you."
