Winner Takes All novel Chapter 863

Daisy was stunned.

Then a flash of embarrassment appeared on her pale face as she lowered her head and said, “I was worried about you and forgot about it.”

“Daisy, Brent, when did Senior ever dictate this?”

Amber was puzzled. Just now, in Jack’s room, when she was about to talk about what happened three nights ago, Mysterious Man happened to come in and interrupt.

She didn’t know anything about the need to conceal this from Jack.

Brent said, “You have been busy taking care of the young master for the past three days, and the few of us were like this. Senior and Lone Wolf were busy taking care of us, and he told it to us. I think he hasn’t had the chance to tell you yet.”

As for Jack’s bewitchedness, even without Mysterious Man bidding him, Brent would never be willing to tell Jack about the events of that night.

Compared to Daisy and the others, Brent, who had personally experienced Jack’s battle prowess after he had turned bewitched, was reticent about Jack’s bewitchedness.

The scene back then was terrifying and horrible, like hell.

Telling such a thing to Jack was unhelpful, and it might even have a significant impact on him.

At the very least, something would go terribly wrong in terms of psychological endurance!

Brent, who had been through the battlefield, had more understanding than Daisy regarding psychological endurance.

While the few people were talking in the room, Jack had already gotten up, taken a hot shower, and then stood in front of the mirror.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Jack was shocked and confused…

He slowly raised his hand and touched his face.

Through the mirror, he could see the tiny scabs on his face, as if they were moles on his face.

But when his right hand touched it, he could feel the roughness of his face.

He hadn’t recovered too well from the three days of sleep.

His crusted face still had a sickly pallor at the moment.

Suddenly, Jack curled his lips and smiled teasingly, “It looks really ugly…”

Jack changed into a comfortable outfit after drying his hair.

As he walked out of the bathroom, he glanced at the wheelchair placed next to the desk.

After hesitating for a moment, Jack still chose to sit on it.

He wasn’t reckless. There were still three months before his father’s birthday.

He had been hiding this for a long time. He would never allow his work to fall short at this final moment.

He glanced over the neatly arranged Buddhist scriptures on the table. However, Jack shook his head as he picked up the Tao Te Ching and flipped through it as if he had already made this a habit.

Gradually, his mind calmed down as he immersed himself in the scriptures as if the pain that had always existed in his body had also diminished.

Time passed slowly.

Knock, knock, knock.

The knocking sounds at the door interrupted Jack’s thoughts.

Jack closed the Tao Te Ching and saw that the door had opened. Amber popped her head in and said, “Honey, it’s dinner time. Everyone is waiting for you.”

“Alright.”

Jack pushed his wheelchair and went to the dining room with Amber.

Mr. Ward, Mysterious Man, and Lone Wolf were already sitting at the dining table.

But, there was no sign of Brent and Daisy.

Amber explained, “Daisy has gone to feed Brent. Brent was more seriously injured and can’t get out of bed yet.”

“Okay.”

Jack reached the main seat and glanced at Lone Wolf.

Lone Wolf was nervous as he felt the gaze. He hurriedly got up and said respectfully, “Sorry, Mr. Hughes. I’m sitting here because I have something to report.”

“It’s alright, Lone Wolf.”

Jack waved his hand, “I think you are sort of the only intact person in the room, apart from Amber.”

His words instantly made Mr. Ward and Mysterious Man laugh.
