Winner Takes All novel Chapter 583

Was it hate or love?

Mr. Ward was in a daze and looked at the small dog by the side of the road. Their distance increased as the car drove but his eyes continued to look at the dog. Mr. Ward realized that he didn’t know how to answer the question.

Jack wiped his face and said, “The dog does not mind if the family is poor but as soon as he is abandoned, it becomes a wolf and a beast which eats raw meat and drinks blood.”

“When a wolf returns, it’s not to repay the kindness but to exact revenge!” Jack declared!

The coldness reverberated within the car and chilled to the bones. Even Mr. Ward’s body was covered with goosebumps.

“Master…” Mr. Ward remarked in horror.

Jack smiled, “I know what you are worried about and I know what I’m saying. I’ve always buried deeply the fact that he abandoned his wife and son. But if someone were to mention or let me abandon my wife or son, then I will return to seek revenge!”

Mr. Ward felt considerably more assured when he heard this and was able to calm down.

When they were back at LJ Hospital, it was already daytime.

Jack asked Mr. Ward to go home to rest while he went to Amber’s room. When he wheeled himself to the room, he saw Amber sleeping as she curled up on the bed like a kitten. He smiled tenderly and was about to push himself up onto the bed.

Amber suddenly opened her eyes slowly and smiled sweetly, “Hubby, you’re back.”

“Have I woken you up?” Jack was stunned.

Amber smiled as she said, “My sleep had become very light after I got pregnant. I’ll wake up at the slightest disturbance.”

“Where’s Daisy?” Jack asked.

“She went back to make breakfast for us.” Amber yawned several times and rubbed her eyes, “Daisy must be exhausted during this period. She had to take care of so many of us including three patients.”

Jack also felt helpless. Things happened one after another ever since he returned from overseas. He could hardly find an opportunity to gasp for air. Daisy had to prepare three meals a day and look after the patients, even Mr. Ward and Brent were exhausted.

“It would be better after this period.” Jack sighed as he said helplessly.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help ease the burden on Daisy but he couldn’t trust anyone else. The issues surrounding him continually evolve, mutate and broaden. It would catch him off guard as soon as he let his guard down. Daisy was the maid whom he found before he became wealthy and now she had become one of his inner circle. He could be absolutely certain about her. But whether he could trust another maid if he were to hire one was all based on luck.

“You didn’t sleep last night?” Amber looked at Jack as she blinked.

Jack yawned and nodded tiredly.

The next moment, Amber opened her arms towards Jack and said coyly, “Come, let’s hug and sleep.”

Jack laughed, grabbed the side of the bed, and ‘struggled’ to climb onto the bed. He hugged Amber and fell asleep soon after.
