Winner Takes All novel Chapter 713

“What can’t you see through?”

Mr. Ward frowned and wondered.

The mysterious man smiled secretively, “Perhaps he himself is the huge variable that makes it impossible for people to see through him.”

After saying that, he turned and left.

Mr. Ward stood there blankly, unable to say anything.

After a long time.

He sighed and returned back to his room.

Inside the bedroom.

The lights were dim.

Jack didn’t sleep. In fact, no matter how tired he was, he couldn’t fall asleep.

He sat on the bed holding a photo album. Inside were photos of Amber during her pregnancy.

There were photos of Amber alone and also pictures of both of them together.

The only thing constant in the photo was that both of them were focused on Amber’s belly.

The baby was the apples of their eyes.

In the nine months of her pregnancy, Jack and Amber were looking forward to the arrival of the little angel.

Gradually, Jack’s eyes brimmed with tears and they dripped down his face non-stop, splashing onto the photos.

“The baby was going to arrive in just a little while. I was going to be a Dad and Amber was going to be a Mom.”

As he longed for that time, chill flashed in his teary eyes, “Kool family, are you ready to be destroyed completely?”

It was not until the early morning that Jack finally closed the album and hid it carefully back in the secret place.

He didn’t want Amber to find the album when she came back home.

It would have definitely made Amber sad and heartbroken.

Amber had suffered a lot from the miscarriage.

He had to be considerate of Amber’s health.

Back on the bed, Jack took out the Tao Te Ching and carefully read through it.

He had spent a long time in the library when he was in university.

He was open to all the different kinds of books in the library.

It didn’t matter if it was documents, records, classics, novels or anything else. It was also during this time that he accumulated a very rich knowledge. It allowed him to have conversations with all kinds of people after he entered the society and to quickly gather favorable impressions.

Tao Te Ching was a book that he had read many times. The more he read it the more he was able to appreciate and understand this gem that had been passed down for centuries.

One book, when different people read it, there will be different understandings.

What he had just said to Mr. Ward was his understanding of the first word after he had read Tao Te Ching again and again.

Gradually, Jack had become obsessed with the content of Tao Te Ching. Its words were concise but meaningful and he could savor them every time he read it.

As it penetrated deeply into his mind, Jack’s mood gradually calmed down.

The grief that was caused by flipping trough the photo album disappeared gradually.

His whole being was deeply immersed in the tranquility of reading.

The night was very long, enough for Jack to read Tao Te Ching three times.

The night was also very short, barely enough for Jack to be able to read Tao Te Ching three times.

When it was just getting bright, Jack closed the book and started his daily exercise routine.

No matter how sad and hurt he was, he never thought about missing the exercise.

Only when he was stronger and strong enough that he could fight against it instead of being uselessly angry when facing the danger.

Whether it was his own strength or the combined strength of all of his resources and capabilities, the way was still the same.

A systematic devilish training had made Jack’s muscles stronger. Every inch of his skin covered with sweat was shining in the rising sun.

“Phew!”

Jack exhaled and stretched.

The joints of his upper body immediately made a cracking sound.

Even after sweating as if rained upon, and not sleeping for two nights in a row, Jack wasn’t exhausted. Instead, he felt relaxed and refreshed after sweating and his mood was much better.

He took a shower and went to the dining room on the first floor.
