Winner Takes All novel Chapter 753

“Beg Mr. Hughes for forgiveness!” Sampson raged and shoved Truman with his leg.

“Dad…” Truman whimpered pitifully on the ground. He was completely dumbfounded when he realized Jack’s identity. What he had considered as his pride was insignificant in Jack’s eyes and to think that he was so blatantly arrogant about it. He had never experienced such a loss of face.

“Apologize!” Sampson gritted his teeth and demanded, “In the real world, you must know when to apologize for your mistakes and take the punishment like a man. Mr. Hughes had already spared your life by asking me to come personally to redeem you. If you still don’t come to your senses, then don’t blame me for disowning you!” Sampson shook in anger as he yelled.

His threat of disowning Truman was the final straw that broke the camel’s back. He looked back reluctantly at Cissie who was held back by Morrison.

Bash!

Sampson noticed Truman’s gaze, kicked him again and yelled, “How dare you look at that jinxed woman? Don’t you know that she was making use of you?”

In the face of his father’s rage, Truman was already a broken man. He turned towards Jack slowly, bowed deeply, and begged, “I’m sorry Mr. Hughes. Please forgive me for my misgivings.”

Jack slowly leaned towards Truman and stared directly into his eyes and said, “Next time, remember to find out more about the people you deal with. It was very awkward when I saw you with Cissie.” What Jack said burnt strongly within Truman.

Jack waved his hand and said to Sampson, “You may leave with your son. Make sure both of you remember what happened today.”

Sampson heaved a sigh of relieve and expressed his gratitude towards Jack, “Sampson will always remember Mr. Hughes’ graciousness. The Russell family of Sunam will be at your disposal even if we have to walk through the fires of hell.”

After saying, Sampson grabbed Truman to his feet and dragged him out of there.

“Truman…” Cissie whimpered as if the sky had fallen.

Truman was her only protection and hope. She intentionally captured Truman’s heart so that she may survive through this. But the appearance of Sampson totally dashed her hopes like a burst bubble. She noticed Truman’s reluctance to abandon her but he could not defy Sampson.

Truman did not respond to Cissie’s cries and very quickly disappeared from her sight.

It was deadly quiet inside and outside the courtyard.

Morrison grabbed onto Cissie and said coldly, “Cissie, you rebelled against the head of the family and broke the family regulations. These are serious offenses and will be severely punished today!”

“Uncle Morrison…” Cissie’s petite body trembled as she looked horrified at Morrison.

Morrison was cold-blooded and did not waiver to her cries for mercy and replied, “I’ll punish you personally!” His remark was like a huge formless hand that pushed Cissie into the depths of hopelessness.

Her face instantly turned pale from hopelessness and horror. Morrison’s cold steadfastness dashed her last thread of hope. She even wanted to say that she did it for the Quinn family. But now Morrison had declared that he was going to personally mete out the punishment so what was there left to plead?
