Winner Takes All novel Chapter 554

“Brent, if you concentrated and used your full efforts, can you guarantee that you can hit the trunk with that stone as deep as the one in the woods?”

Jack asked as soon as he came back into the ward.

Although Mr. Ward said that Brent only used two-thirds of the strength in the woods.

He still wanted to ask whether Brent could be like that master after setting aside all external conditions.

This could help him determine the strength of that master.

For that master, the only intelligence that Jack could judge from clues now was this one.

Brent lowered his head and thought carefully.

When he raised his head again, his face was filled with frustration.

“I can’t do it.” Brent shook his head as he answered bluntly.

Jack was shocked.

Brent was a commander-in-chief who crawled out from the brink of death multiple times; thus, his capability and power were beyond doubt.

However, if Brent couldn’t even do it, then how strong could this master be?

Mr. Ward slowly said, “Young master, the difference between Brent and that master is huge! Giving your all and doing it randomly are two different notions.”

Jack looked at Mr. Ward with a sudden realization.

What Mr. Ward meant was that if Brent couldn’t do it while giving his all, then maybe that master was just doing it randomly.

This difference was extremely clear!

Suddenly, Jack remembered someone. Maybe he could compete with that master.

“Where’s my Uncle Brown Hughes?”

Jack knows the cruelty within Black Hell. The ones imprisoned there were not commanders-in-chief but rather gods of murder.

To put it bluntly, Black Hell was a gathering place for devils.

And Brown Hughes was the only one who could crush the place and all the devils wouldn’t dare to do things recklessly.

This was the same intimidation they felt when Brent and Jack entered Black Hell.

From all the masters that Jack currently knew, Brown was absolutely the number one!

While they listened to this.

Mr. Ward and Brent were stunned simultaneously.

Brent thought for a while, then said, “The senior should be able to easily do it. Between senior and the man in the woods, their strength shouldn’t differ too much.”

Jack’s face sank.

Now they had a comparison with the strength of the master in the woods.

But when he thought about the feeling of being controlled and played by Brown in Black hell, he could only feel weak.

Why did such an existence had to come close to me?

Jack grabbed his hair in frustration. The appearance of the mysterious man was too sudden. Combined with the clues from Lyndall Long, it was clear that Lyndall’s life-and-death situation was calculated.

On one hand, he helped recruit Lyndall; on the other hand, Lyndall had to take the blame in the killing of the Powell family.

What…were they after?

Silence filled the ward.

Mr. Ward seemed to see through Jack’s thoughts. He comforted him, “Young master, you don’t have to worry. Old master will handle this matter.”

Jack bitterly smiled and stayed silent.

Could his father really withstand these aristocratic families that prospered for a thousand years?

Nearing dusk.

Jack changed from his hospital gown to a loose casual wear.

This helped cover the wounds on his body.

As for the injury on his right hand, he couldn’t cover the thick gauze.

However, Jack already thought of an excuse, so Amber Knight didn’t get to the bottom of it.

Jack personally took care of Amber, ate dinner, then watched a movie with her and soothed her to sleep.

However, just when Amber fell asleep, Mr. Ward quietly entered the ward.

Jack understood him as he looked into Mr. Ward’s eyes.

However, Mr. Ward pressed Jack’s shoulder, “Old master strictly ordered you to not go back to the Hughes mansion. He will handle this matter.”

“Handle it properly? Kill George on the spot?” Jack raised his eyebrow. His eyes filled with an intent to kill.

Mr. Ward shook his head, “I only know so much, but old master has already ordered, and I wouldn’t allow young master to go to the Hughes mansion right now. That would be no different from turning yourself in, which wouldn’t solve the problem. Because of George’s disruption, young master and old master will be put in a more difficult position.”

Jack gritted his teeth and went furious.

Finally, he deeply sighed, “After this, George…has got to go to hell!”

His words were sonorous, and his intent to kill grew further.

Jack was no Mother Mary, let alone the benevolence of a woman.

He would have a compassionate and hesitant heart towards innocent people.

But towards George, he wasn’t stupid enough to be kind to his own enemy.

To be kind to the enemy was to be cruel to yourself.

How can he wait to kill him ‘til the new year with his repeated provocations?

“But…” Mr. Ward’s face changed.

Jack raised his hand, interrupting Mr. Ward.

“I, Jack Hughes, am not a vengeful person, but I’m not stupid enough to tolerate every killing intent! That is not forbearance; that’s timidness!”

After that, Jack turned to enter the ward.

Mr. Ward stood blankly at the entrance of the room. He was silent for a while, then finally letting out a long sigh.

“George Hughes, you are too perverse and ruthless to disrupt in such a huge matter. I’m afraid even the Hughes family rules wouldn’t be able to protect you.”

Rubbing his temple, Mr. Ward slowly turned around to walk to Lone Wolf’s ward.

Brent was still guarding there.

Now that Jack had decided.

As a servant, he needed to work with Brent on how to bypass Hughes family laws and kill George Hughes…

Since it would be unavoidable, then they needed to keep it as clean as possible to avoid causing trouble on Jack.
