Winner Takes All novel Chapter 754

After the cleansing, the Quinn family would fracture internally. Only then would there be a short-term peace. It would also be much easier for Amelia to control them. Truman and Cissie’s rebellion enabled Jack to see the dangers lurking within the Quinn family but it also gave Jack a chance to administer the bitter pill.

The Quinn family members bore a grudge and were united in the shadows. They were a bunch of blood-thirsty wolves and ready to rebel. Jack knew this the day he took over the family. Otherwise, he would not make Yael stay in the family to control them.

But now with these actions, the wolves would lose their footing and start to fight among themselves. The chance of a rebellion would reduce considerably and hence Jack’s concerns would likewise be reduced significantly.

In the gloomy autumn breeze, the courtyard seemed to be cut off from the outside world. The stench of blood filled the air. Jack and the others behaved normally. They chatted leisurely as they enjoyed freshly brewed tea for about an hour.

Then, someone began to knock on the courtyard doors. Jack placed his teacup down and looked at Jim who went to open the door. Morrison entered when the door was opened. He stumbled and staggered in. His face was pale and his eyes seemed to be in a daze. His face and clothes were stained with blood. There was a long knife in his right hand and he dragged the blade along the ground which left a trail of blood.

Clink clank…

Morrison dropped the long knife as he approached Jack. The sound of the knife falling onto the ground made Morrison shudder and his dazed eyes refocused. It was as if a cold robot had gained its soul. The pale, stiff, and lifeless face regained its warmth. His eyes also lit up.

Morrison’s lips quivered as he said, “Mr. Hughes, the family punishment had been meted out.”

“You’ve done well.” Jack calmly praised and then said, “From today onwards, you will have to give your support to Amelia.”

His tone was calm without any trace of emotions but there was frosty oppression. Cruel people must be treated cruelly.

The Quinn family were now reaping the poison fruits that they had sowed. Jack did not need to pity Morrison due to his show of emotions.

Jack then said to Amelia, “Amelia, Yael is still in the hospital. You had difficulty in controlling the Quinn family. But now you have your Uncle Morrison to help you. Anything that you can’t handle your Uncle Morrison will be able to resolve for you.”

“Thanks, Jack.” Amelia thanked Jack gratefully and did not bother with Morrison. She knew clearly that it was Jack who came specially to help her establish her dominance. Although Morrison had meted out the punishment, it also established Amelia as the head of the family. The discontent that arose from this event would be partially be borne by Morrison.

Killing two birds with a stone! After Morrison heard what Jack said, he braced up and shuddered. Jack’s words were to the point and pierced his heart. After today, the limbo Quinn family would cease to exist. They would now be directly under Jack and he was one of Jack’s executors.

Suddenly, Morrison felt remorseful and was gripped with a complex mix of emotions. He felt as if every inch of his skin was on fire and cut by a knife. The pain was insufferable.

“Go now, Amelia will shower you with power and wealth.” Jack waved his hand and said coldly.

“Many thanks, Mr. Hughes.” Morrison suppressed the intense pain that he felt within and slowly turned to leave.

After he turned away from Jack, the tears in his eyes finally started to flow. He continued to smell the blood that a Quinn just bled. Morrison ground his teeth and his eyes remained determined as he walked out. His eyes were swollen from the crying and but as soon as he stepped out, he started to grin sinisterly.

Inside the courtyard.

On seeing Morrison leave, Jim who had held his tongue finally said, “Will Morrison really help Amelia? A person who can flip sides is truly terrifying.”
