Winner Takes All novel Chapter 561

All the way until late into the night, Jack lost all of his sleepiness due to the confusion in his heart.

With Ciara’s call, Jack’s head immediately became crystal clear.

“Mr. Hughes, something has happened to Yael and Vinna!”

When Jack heard Ciara’s anxious voice at the other end, he immediately felt unsettled.

He jolted up from the bed, “Aren’t the both of them in X City? How can something happen to them?”

Although the Quinn family of X City had collapsed and their position as the richest family had been taken by the Zhuge family, in the end, it was just a change of the ruler on the surface, but their power in wealth didn’t experience any major changes.

It could even be said that around half of the power was in the hands of the Quinn family.

In another word, the Quinn family still had unmatched influence in all of X City.

It was not an overstatement to say that both Yael and Amelia could do whatever they wanted in X City and nobody would even bat an eye lid.

No matter how powerful the current administrator was, they were also fearful towards Yael. Things would only go haywire if Yael were to dig his own grave, but was that even… possible?

Yael was not someone who would do something like that!

“I have just received a call from Vinna. They are no longer in X City. They have come to the capital city.”

Ciara’s tone was racing with nervousness, “Things won’t be clear if we talk about it on the phone. I will come to get you now. Vinna didn’t dare to inform of this to the Vaughn family, and that is why she decided to call me.”

“Alright.”

Jack answered solemnly.

After hanging up the phone, he changed his clothes and with the help of his hands propped on the edge of the bed, he moved into his wheelchair with difficulty.

Even though he was the only one present in this room, he made sure to keep up his appearances as a handicapped person.

This play of hand was his trump card to stump the people of the Hughes family, including Madam Hughes at his father’s birthday party.

Jack knew very well that there would be eavesdropping ears everywhere. He didn’t want his efforts to go to waste.

Fortunately, when Ciara helped Jack to book a room in a hotel, she had chosen one that was closest to where she was staying.

After twenty minutes, Jack saw Ciara barging into the lobby of the hotel anxiously.

“Get in first and we will talk!”

Jack didn’t launch into his questions just yet.

Vinna didn’t dare to spread the wildfire of this incident to the Vaughn family, so that would mean things had gotten to a boiling point.

After she had told Ciara, Ciara immediately passed on the word. This implied that this incident was a hard nut to crack for both the Wattson and Vaughn family.

Otherwise, there was no reason Ciara had to specially inform him of this. She would have resolved the matter using the might of the Wattson family.

A red Ferrari resembled a bolt of lightning as it sped along the highway under the night sky.

Inside the car, due to Ciara’s aura, the atmosphere had a lot of tension in the air.

“Just what is actually wrong?” Jack asked.

“Yael has offended someone he couldn’t afford to offend. Under the power of the king of the capital city there are many hidden, capable people. Even if Yael is one of the men in power somewhere else, he has to submit to a greater power when he comes here.”

Ciara’s words were full of shade.

However, Jack didn’t get what she was trying to say.

He knitted his brows and asked in a rumbling voice, “Is it someone with great power?”

“Not really, but he’s a future star who holds the expectations of many!”

Ciara’s word sounded unnaturally ominous, and her eyes were fixated on a point in space in front of her. She continued slowly, “Mr. Hughes, have you ever heard of Dragon Cavalry?”

Dragon Cavalry?

Jack’s eyes suddenly flashed violently, and his body became taut with tension.

“Do you mean the Dragon Cavalry in the north part?”

The moment he asked that, even Jack felt his throat becoming dry for no reason.

Ciara didn’t reply him directly. She just nodded silently.

With an audible wheezing sound, Jack sucked in a deep breath with his mouth.

Dragon Cavalry was a well-known strong beast of the continent whom everyone knew of!

He stood guard at the North, and nobody was able to breach his defense.

However, on the streets outside SanJoy Club, the crowd was roaring with vigor.

With the sound of the revving engine of sports car mixed with the commotion, the crowd constantly broke out into exclamations and screams.

“I beg you guys, I beg you guys to let him go…”

Vinna was kneeling on the road, and the swaying and swirling rain water splattered all over her body, soaking her make-up into a mess. She looked very embarrassed and haggard.

While she was begging, her gaze didn’t avert from Yael who was not far away.

Yael was lying on the ground, and his body which was initially dressed in impeccable suit was now no more. In between the torn fabric, traces of blood could be seen.

And what lied beside Yael was countless shards of glass bottles. Those were what caused most of his bloody injuries on his body.

“The killer of his dad, what more do you still have to say? I just tried to give you some piece of advise, yet you wanted to wave your fists at me? You dishonest and barbaric bastard, do you think you are qualified to do that?”

Not far away, a youngster who looked to measure at one hundred and eighty centimeters looked slightly drunk. He was swinging around a bat wrapped in huge piece of clothing slowly in his hands.

Many of his followers and admirers were surrounding him.

“Chattis is right. It’s his rare break here, yet he stumbled upon such a disgusting animal. He deserved to be taught a lesson!”

“Putting aside the fact that he has killed his father, the fact that he has become a thorn in Chattis’ eyes is enough to make him stay here.”

“Come, come, come. Chattis, you got to vent your anger…”

The crowd was fired up, and a man who looked to be in his twenties were smiling smugly. He took a glass bottle and tossed it into the air just above the man.

With a huge crashing sound, the bat wrapped in thick clothing connected to the glass bottles.

The glass bottles did not shatter on the spot, but instead it flew towards Yale.

Bang!

The glass bottle crashed onto Yael’s head, and under the effect of the huge impact, it instantly shattered into countless pieces.

Yael felt a shock going through his body as he spat out some blood. His injured head gradually formed a pool of blood through his head and on the ground.

It was indeed a bloody scene, yet nobody felt horrified by it.

Instead, under the influence of alcohol, the crowd immediately erupted in a frenzy with screams coming from everywhere.
