Winner Takes All novel Chapter 712

“The bad news!”

Jack said without any hesitation.

“Sure, I feel the same too.”

The mysterious person nodded, “Listening to the bad news first so it wouldn’t affect your good mood from the good news, right?”

Jack smiled bitterly, “Do you think anything can affect my mood now?”

“No.”

The mysterious man shrugged. After a pause, he said, “The bad news is Jenny went back to Kool family.”

“Oh, this doesn’t count as bad news. Regardless of her whereabouts, it won't affect my plan of destroying the Kool family, or the Kool family be crushed in the end.”

Jack said coldly, and his tone was filled with indifference.

The mysterious person widened his eyes and shrugged, “The good news is, the master of the Kool family died.”

As he said, he pointed to the direction of the mountain, “I found his corpse on a tiny road there. His body had already turned cold and he seemed to be in peace. He probably died without any pain.”

Jack raised his brows and looked at the man, “You killed the person and you said that he left peacefully. That sounds weird.”

“I’m guessing that he died in peace because he didn’t reveal anything about you to Jenny.”

The mysterious man rubbed his chin and said suspiciously, “Judging from how Jenny brought Katherine to the house, she probably didn’t know about how Kool family is targeting you. She might not even know about Katherine’s evil intentions.”

Jack frowned as he recalled the few times he had met Jenny.

To Jack, Jenny was an innocent and unique girl. She had quite a careless personality too.

If she had known the truth, then they probably wouldn’t have met.

“That’s true. She probably doesn’t know it.”

Jack breathed out and squinted his eyes as he smirked, “But she is from the Kool family after all. None of them can be innocent after all the things that had happened.”

His gaze was cold and sharp like it could pierce through one’s bone.

It even made the mysterious person froze for a moment. The chilly aura from Jack was scaring him a little.

“You are really doing this, aren’t you?” The man asked deeply.

Jack’s eyes had no warmth in them, “Don’t advise others to be kind if you haven’t suffered through their pain, that’s just being busybody! For this matter about my wife and my kid, I had to choose whether to save Amber or our child at the last moment.”

“For a grudge as such, if I don’t fight till the end, am I even a good husband? Can I be a good father? I won’t be able to face my unborn child!”

His words were as sharp as a knife.

When he was talking, a hint of madness appeared on Jack’s cold face.

The mysterious man took a step back subconsciously and sucked in a deep breath.

“Although the matter may be able to be concealed for the time being, but from a more rational point of view, I would still like to advise you. You can fight till the end with Kool family, but you can put it on hold for a while too.”

He then slowly took out a cigar and put it in his mouth, but his right hand which was holding onto the lighter trembled a little under Jack’s gaze. After a moment, then only he was able to light up the cigar, “Kool family is not as simple as you think they are. This is too complicated, and it involves too many parties. A grudge doesn’t just appear out of the blue.”

“Hah!”

Jack snickered, “I only care about the revenge. Who cares about the consequences? My child…is still looking at me from heaven.”

His harsh voice was like an oath that echoed on the balcony!

In that instant, the wind in the autumn night blew stronger, and it was even piercingly cold.

The mysterious man let out a puff of smoke and sucked in another one. Then, he turned and left, “Oh right, do look at the Tao Te Ching I got Mr. Ward to pass to you. It will help you a lot. Especially the Tao Te Ching.”

Jack stared at his leaving figure.
