Winner Takes All novel Chapter 550

As Mr. Ward spoke.

The atmosphere inside the ward suddenly became serious.

Jack felt cold all over, his head seemed to be exploding.

He didn’t refute Mr. Ward’s words because what he said was indeed the most terrible issue right now.

Being at the top of the pyramid, the Hughes family was already the strongest. It stood among the clouds and looked down at the other powerful families like ants.

A Long Thriving Noble Family which was even more powerful when compared to the Hughes family.

If they really wanted vengeance and pursue the matter to the end, it was going to be catastrophic for Jack.

It would undoubtedly be a “ death punishment from the heavens”!

Right now, it wasn’t about considering why someone from Powell Family wanted to kill Jack.

Instead, it was about worrying how to stay unscathed through the possible fury from the Powell Family and survive.

Even though, the person from of the Powell Family was not personally killed by Jack.

But it was reason enough that the person from the Powell Family wanted to kill Jack and died during the assassination process.

A man’s talent and wealthy might turn to be guilty sometimes.

What was more, right now it was not talent or wealthy, but a person from Powell Family.

“Huh…”

After a while, Jack exhaled heavily and looked at Mr. Ward, “Report it all to my father truthfully.”

There was none of his previous calmness and composure in his face, nor was there the pride in the ability to turn the tide.

This time, Jack really felt like the sky had fallen.

His current strength was simply not enough to bear the consequences of this incident.

He could only rely on his father.

“Okay!”

Mr. Ward got up and walked out.

The ward became deadly quiet.

After the conversation, Jack had a newfound understanding towards this world.

But it also made the air inside the ward feel frozen and faded, making him feel suffocated.

Brent had been already feeling dull.

What Mr. Ward had said was completely different form his own experiences over so many years. It was completely beyond his understanding.

From the beginning till the end, Brent had been similar to insects like ants.

“Are you afraid?”

Jack’s voice sounded in his ears.

Brent finally recovered. He subconsciously clenched his fists before picking up the glass, pouring himself a glass water. He drained it in one gulp.

Then he walked over to the sofa desolately and slumped down, rubbing his face ruthlessly.

Looking up at the ceiling for a few seconds, he sighed faintly, “I have never before felt how small I am.”

Jack twitched the corners of his mouth and forced an ugly smile.

Indeed.

Brent’s experience was rich enough, so much so that, even if his identity and status were both thrown away, it was still enough to overwhelm the richest man in the city.

Such existence, yet it was still small and powerless.

Ridiculous?

Not ridiculous!

Only frightening!

Even Jack himself felt this way.

He had strived very hard in order to put on the crown as the Hughes family patriarch, and to sit calmly on the position of the head of the family.

In his eyes, the Hughes family was already the extreme limit of power in the world.

However, now Mr. Ward had told him that something existed that was the same as the Hughes family, or even stronger.

For him, this was no different than his whole view of the world collapsing!

Brent looked at Jack, his gaze deep, “That master in the forest, was he harming you or helping you?”

He questioned unabashedly.
