Patrick Hughes finished his words on the phone.
Mr. Ward’s body trembled and his expression changed a lot.
He opened his eyes wide and he looked shocked and terrified.
Even his right hand that was holding the phone trembled. The blue veins could be seen on the back of his hands.
“No. No!”
Mr. Ward shouted sadly. His eyes looked red.
“Mr. Ward, I didn’t even finish my words. Why are you overreacting?” Patrick’s voice was a little angry on the phone.
Mr. Ward said with a deep voice, “Old master, the Powell family is like a giant mountain that has pressured the Hughes family and they have arrived at the Hughes family. If old master doesn’t even lead the Hughes family to fight against the Powell family and you ask young master to go back to the Hughes family to face the Powell family, how do we fight against the Powell family with young master alone? They are a Long Thriving Noble Family. For young master, it was like the sky had fallen. Furthermore, young master is innocent. He was set up by the others!”
Mr. Ward’s shouts showed the injustice he had in his heart at the moment.
He was ordered to help Jack Hughes. Since the moment he met Jack, he had seen Jack’s improvement and performance all the time. He was also amazed by his performance again and again.
Mr. Ward had already helped and taught Jack as if he had treated him as his own son.
‘However, the Powell family had come in full fury, and old master asked young master to come back to the Hughes family…’
Even though Mr. Ward didn’t finish hearing Patrick’s words, he had clearly known what disastrous fate that Jack would meet once he came back to the Hughes family!
Mr. Ward clenched his left hand and punched on the glass of the window. He clenched his teeth and said the words through the gaps of his teeth, “Even if old master is going to punish me, I would never let young master go back to the Hughes family at this moment!”
His words were loud, powerful, and extremely determined.
Even Patrick was shocked and he became silent on the call.
After three seconds.
Patrick sighed and said, “Mr. Ward, I am glad that you have such attitudes towards Jack. However, there are some matters that Jack has to face personally. Do you think me, as his father, will harm Jack? I am here, I will keep him safe and sound!”
“But…”
“Ask him to come back!”
Patrick said the words and hung up the phone.
Mr. Ward was extremely furious. Anger could be seen in his eyes.
Just now he wanted to say that if the Powell family was going to punish Hughes family because of their anger, even old master couldn’t keep Jack safe and sound.
Unless he let the Hughes family pay a horrendous price.
Patrick would definitely do everything he could for Jack.
But what about the Hughes family?
However, Patrick’s determination had made Mr. Ward feel helpless.
After taking a deep breath.
Mr. Ward turned and ignored the documents on the table. He walked straight and left the office.
Corbin Koch was respectfully waiting for him outside.
When Mr. Ward opened the door, he hurriedly walked towards him.
However, before he spoke, Mr. Ward said with a deep voice, “I don’t have to read the documents anymore. Every company’s matter recently would be completely handled by you until young master returns.”
Corbin stopped his step. His body trembled.
After Mr. Ward said the words, he could clearly feel that a coldness that could penetrate into his bone marrow.
He raised his head and looked at Mr. Ward.
Corbin suddenly felt frightened. At the moment, Mr. Ward’s facial expression looked extremely bad.
Corbin had never seen this kind of facial expression from Mr. Ward since he met him!
The Rolls-Royce was slowly driven on the road.
Mr. Ward drove the car and his hands tightly held the steering. Yet, his expression looked extremely furious.
It was like a raging lion that tried to suppress its anger in his heart.
“Keeping young master safe and sound… Old master, do you think young master has only messed with the Burton family from the capital city or the Quinn family from X City?”
Mr. Ward was angry as he gritted his teeth. He was not willing to reconcile on the matter.
Whether the Burton family from the capital city or the Quinn family from X City was only one of the wealthy family.
They might have better financial power compared to the Long Thriving Family.
However, when they were compared to the Noble Family or the Long Thriving Noble family, the Burton family and the Quinn family were not even worth mentioning!
…
When Mr. Ward rushed to LJ Hospital.
Jack was chatting with Amber Knight.
When Jack saw Mr. Ward’s serious and sullen face, he knew something had happened.
