Winner Takes All novel Chapter 663

The stern voice attracted everyone’s attention immediately.

Patrick’s expression changed and his eyes lit up and looked in that direction.

Carter supported Madam Hughes as they walked into the courtyard. A group of authority holders followed closely behind her. Everyone appeared extremely furious at this point. The combined vibes of their fury terrified every guard and the younger Hughes members.

Thud!

Apart from the guards who had pinned down Jack and those who held Killian back, everyone else quickly knelt. In the silence of the courtyard, the sound of the kneecaps striking the ground was thunderous. The entire atmosphere was filled with fear and awe.

The Hughes family controlled a large portion of the world’s finances and affected the lives of countless people. The responsibilities of the Hughes family were heavy and complexed.

Apart from the head of the family who remained in the Hughes residence, many of the authority holders were either managing affairs locally or out of state. It was very rare to have so many authority holders gathered in the meeting hall but they managed to do it today!

It was all because of Jack who practically pulled down the Hughes family’s reputation and dragged it through the mud! All the authority holders were worried that if this was to leak out, that it would embarrass the family even further!

The Hughes family had risen from status to higher status at breakneck speed to become an aristocratic family. But all these could be destroyed in just one day!

Madam Hughes was so furious that her face began to twitch and it was as if her eyes could shoot out flames. Madam Hughes finally stopped beside Jack.

Thud! The dragon head walking cane struck heavily onto the ground.

Madam Hughes sternly said, “Patrick, so this is your scumbag! What kind of bastard would issue a ‘Kill Declaration’ on my Hughes family? Now he even killed George in the Hughes residence! This… this…” Madam Hughes trembled furiously.

Then suddenly she beat her chest and wailed to the heavens, “Oh heavens, how will my Hughes family stand tall in front of the other elite families? Why did we have such a murderer in our midst?” She cried in agony and touched all their hearts.

Carter and the group of authority holders’ eyes began to turn red and fumed when they saw Madam Hughes cry sorrowfully. Even those authority holders who had supported Patrick looked at Jack with disgust.

The next moment.

“Grandmother… I beg you to provide justice for George!” Killian started to cry after he broke free from the others and knelt on the ground, bowing to Madam Hughes repeatedly. Killian struck his forehead on the ground repeatedly until it started to bleed and he still kept going. All those who looked at him began to pity and feel his sorrows.

“Killian, oh, Killian. Rest assured that I would be fair!” Madam Hughes looked at Killian and wiped her tears.
