Winner Takes All novel Chapter 509

The tone was calm.

Yet, the words seemed like they had exploded in everyone’s ear like thunder.

The firm tone of voice seemed like it didn’t give any room for negotiation. The words themselves were the decision made!

Jack Hughes laughed coldly in his heart.

Even though he had already expected it, Madam Hughes’s words had still made him feel depressed in his heart.

‘Only a few words and my presence today suddenly became a coincidental encounter?’

‘The Hughes family treated me as a bastard. Why would they call me to attend the family dinner?’

‘Calling me to be here like a hypocrite. Yet, my presence today became a coincidental encounter like what you had said. Were you trying to be innocent after doing this bad thing?’

Upon hearing Madam Hughes’s words.

Jack could clearly feel that the gazes with evil intentions towards him.

Some of them were surprised. Some of them took pleasure in other people’s misfortune. Some of them didn’t even hide their hatred towards him…

There were a few sympathetic gazes mixed within those gazes with bad intention as if they were not even there.

“Grandmother is right. If there is a disabled heir in the Hughes family, then we would be laughed at by the whole world!”

Suddenly, a voice broke the silence in the hall.

Jack slowly raised his head and looked at George Hughes who got up quickly at the small table.

At the moment, George showed a bright smile with a straight back. He seemed like a villain who had achieved his goal as he stared at Jack.

These words were like boiling water that was poured into an oil pot.

It immediately made everyone heated.

“Grandmother, please make the right judgment. George is right. Who was not a young and outstanding person for the past heir? Jack indeed has talents. However, his legs are disabled and he has to spend the rest of his time in a wheelchair. He doesn’t deserve to be the heir anymore!”

Ivy Hughes got up right after George. Her extraordinary pretty face showed a smug look. She didn’t even hide her hatred and scorn towards Jack when she looked at him.

Jack calmly looked at George and Ivy.

Then, he slowly looked at Killian Hughes.

‘The two out of three enemies of the young generation of the Hughes family had stood up now.’

‘Killian should stand up soon, right?’

However, after waiting for two seconds, Killian was still sitting on the chair calmly. He even leaned his back against the chair lazily without doing anything while looking at George and Ivy with a smile.

“He was calm. It was such a great chance to take me down. He actually still able to stay still to look at us fighting each other.”

This was the thought in Jack’s mind.

Killian had been far ahead of George and Ivy with this scene alone.

As the two people from the young generation got up.

At the main table, the voices of the agreement also sounded immediately.

“Madam Hughes is right. The Hughes family is huge and rich. The heirs are required to compete for the head of the family in the future. If the fact that one of the heirs is a disabled person is known, then the Hughes family would be laughed at by everyone!”

“Madam Hughes is being considerate for the future of the Hughes family. I agree with her!”

…

The fierce voices were like criticisms in speech towards Jack. They had immediately made Jack become a target for all.

Mr. Ward and Brent who stood behind Jack were extremely furious and depressed.

They had known that Jack would suffer from the scene in front of them.

However, the fact that everyone was trying to take Jack down when he was in a difficult position still made them feel aggrieved.

They clearly knew that it was Madam Hughes’s plan.

She knew that Jack was ‘disabled’ and she intentionally set up this family dinner to expose Jack’s ‘disability’ to everyone.

Even if Jack didn’t come to the Hughes family tonight, Madam Hughes would definitely use the other ways to expose this matter.

It was unavoidable!

It was unstoppable!

The only thing that made Mr. Ward slightly relieved was the fact that he knew Jack’s legs were not really disabled. Jack still had a great chance to make a comeback.

However… it was such a great trump card. Wouldn’t it be too wasteful if he used it tonight?

A person slowly got up under the sound from the crowd.

Jack stared at the person and his face became extremely cold instantly.
