Winner Takes All novel Chapter 678

When the haze above the skies shrouded, the strong beams of light became insignificant.

That was Jack’s exact emotions at this moment. He thought that he was after the crown and the throne as the head of the family, as well as the majestic glory that belonged to his mother, himself, and Amber.

However, now that Jack thought about it, he discovered that his so-called goal was just something insignificant.

Now…the haze was beginning to drown out the light.

An invisible force was pushing them into a deeper pool of mess!

Even Mr. Ward fell into a long period of silence as his mind filled up with doubts.

The Rolls-Royce was driven into the villa.

After the car came to a stop, Mr. Ward said seriously, “Perhaps, only the Old Master knows about this…”

“Forget it.”

Jack shook his head. A smile suddenly appeared on his face, replacing his solemn expression from earlier, “We will fight whatever comes in our way. Although we’re getting deeper into the mess, but once we conquer this, we will be the kings.”

Mr. Ward looked at Jack in surprise.

Did he calm down this quickly?

Mr. Ward too, was anxious after hearing Jack’s long sigh on the valley of the mountains earlier.

It was still affecting him until now.

“Let’s go in.”

Mr. Ward then helped Jack get down the car.

When the both of them entered the villa, the living room was still brightly lit.

Sounds were coming from the kitchen.

At this time, the sliding door opened.

Amber, with a pot of soup, walked into the dining room.

“Why are you still cooking at this hour?”

Jack couldn’t help but reprimanded Amber, then looked at her big belly. He couldn’t bear to see her tiring herself out.

Recently, many terrible things had happened. Everyone was having a hard time, and so was Amber.

Moreover, she was pregnant now.

The process of pregnancy itself was painful and exhausting enough. On top of the emotional distress which happened recently, Amber was definitely suffering more than the rest.

“I’m fine.”

Amber then let out a smile, “It’s still early. Vinna is still in the hospital, and she hasn’t been eating much, so Daisy and I prepared ginseng soup for her.”

Daisy then came out from the kitchen too.

She saw Jack and was about to greet him, but upon seeing his expression, she swallowed her words again.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Amber walked to Jack’s side, lifted her slender finger then brushed the bridge of his nose as she laughed.

“Hey idiot, stop looking so gloomy. I’m not so fragile, and I need to move around too, right?”

“I’m worried that you’ll tire yourself out.”

Jack said in a concerned voice, the expression on his face became a little gentler.

“Daisy is here. I’ll be fine.”

Amber smiled before she turned around and headed towards the kitchen again, “We made extra. I’ll get you a bowl of soup. I made it myself after Daisy told me the tricks to cooking it. You better like it.”

Amber’s joke managed to ease the awkward situation a little.

Jack sighed helplessly as he watched Amber enter the kitchen. His heart ached for her.

“That idiot, she has suffered too much because of me.” Jack thought to himself.

The soup was thick and had a strong aroma of ginseng.

It was obvious that Amber had put in effort into cooking it.

Before this, Amber was a girl who didn’t know how to cook at all. The only thing she knew how to do in the kitchen was to boil water.

With Amber’s expectant gaze on him, Jack gave her a thumbs up and praised her for the job well done.

Later, the four of them headed towards LJ Hospital.

They had a casual chat along the way.

Amber did not question Jack as to why he wasn’t around the whole day.

This made him feel more at ease.

If Amber knew that he went to the Hughes Family to kill someone, and almost got himself killed as well, she probably would start to cry again.

At LJ Hospital.
