Winner Takes All novel Chapter 580

The sound resounded like thunder in the living room.

Mr. Ward’s body shook and his expression sank, he then frighteningly knelt down onto the floor.

No doubt what Jack meant was to call Patrick a bastard.

But since he was just a servant to this family, he had no right or ability to intervene.

Patrick’s face froze and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Anger and resentment rose up within him when he heard what Jack said.

Jack’s words had really stabbed him in the heart.

He was the dignified head of the Hughes family, who stood high above the clouds and overlooked the existence of all others.

However, his eyes then began to turn red.

In order to fight for the position of the head of the Hughes family and to protect Jack and Sophie, Patrick then left without hesitation.

The departure that year had left a scar deep in his heart, and when the scar was revealed, guilt was what remained.

After a while, Patrick smiled bitterly and said, “So, you’ve never been able to forget then?”

“How can I ever forget?”

Jack met Patrick’s gaze, his eyes full of resentment and resolve, gritting his teeth as he said, “You may be able to abandon your wife and child, but I can’t! Even death!”

In a sudden, Patrick’s smile was dazzling.

He then raised his head up and laughed.

His laughter echoed in the meeting room for a long time.

Jack was still angry and didn’t flinch.

Mr. Ward, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled even more when he heard Patrick’s laugh.

However it was just that Jack and Mr. Ward couldn’t see Patrick’s full face.

As Patrick tilted his head back and laughed, his red eyes were already filled with tears, and some tears had already slipped quietly down his face.

This would shock anyone else if they were witnessing this.

The dignified head of the Hughes family who had always displayed such prestige and an imposing manner in front of others, was now shedding tears?

“Ah!”

Patrick then suddenly raised his head and let out a heart piercing yell.

The sound shook the room up to the sky and was heard by all who were nearby.

Inside the Buddhist hall.

The sound of soft chants could be heard.

Madam Hughes had a calm expression on her face as she joined in with the chanting and was twirling the Buddhist prayer beads in her right hand.

Carter who was stood at the side appeared calm but awaited expectantly.

Suddenly.

A yell was heard.

Madam Hughes who had her eyes closed chanting then opened them suddenly.

She then grimaced and her eyes coldly narrowed.

“Mother, wasn’t that yell coming from Patrick? We made it, made it. ”

Carter asked uncertainly who was also startled by this sound.

Such a heart piercing yell must mean he was in a matter of great agony.

Apart from losing a child, what else could cause great pain to the head of the family?

“Don’t panic.”

Madam Hughes rose up her hand to signal to not do anything.

After waiting in silence for three minutes, a woman’s voice was suddenly heard outside the door.

“Madam Hughes, the members from the Powell family have already left, but when they were leaving their faces look strained and angry.”
