Winner Takes All

The Quinn family was solemn for several days and even the air was extremely oppressive. All of the Quinn family members felt as if they were gagged and were very nervous and fearful. They hung their heads low as they walked briskly around. Everybody knew that the head of the family was fuming with anger.

But today, he came out of his room after being cooped up inside for several days. He smiled radiantly and did not look angry at all. As Old Master Quinn came out of the room, he ordered that everyone in the family will go out with him.

An hour later at the X City airport.

Tens of luxury cars drove unrestrictedly into the airport towards the runway and stopped beside the runway. Old Master Quinn quickly got out of the car and brought all the Quinn family members and ran towards an airplane stopped at the end of the runway.

"Welcome, Madam Hughes!" Old Master Quinn greeted respectfully.

"Welcome, Madam Hughes!" Every one of the Quinn family bowed and greeted respectfully.

The cabin door opened and Madam Hughes walked down the airplane slowly. She looked at Quinn family members and smiled "As you were."

"Madam Hughes, everything had been arranged. You should have a good rest after your travels." Old Master Quinn smiled radiantly.

The Quinn family was the richest in X City. As the richest in the city, they were used to being high and mighty but in front of the Hughes family, they had to submit obediently and smile with their heads lowered. "It's an eventful time for the Quinn family." Madam Quinn smiled and teased.

Old Master Quinn's smile froze and sighed helplessly, “It's unfortunate that we have an unfilial child in the family."

"Since it's a rouge child, I'll have to resolve it quickly and make an example of him to warn the others and make sure it doesn't happen again.”

Madam Hughes said softly but coldly, "I'm aware of your ability to discipline your family. Somehow the Hughes family's bastard interfered with your actions against the rampant, rebellious and unfilial rouge child. That was why you couldn't deal with him."

Old Master Quinn smiled helplessly, "Nothing escapes Madam Hughes. Jack indeed had interfered in this matter."

From the beginning to the end, he didn't express any surprise. With the prowess of the Hughes family, they could find out anything that they wanted to. Furthermore, Old Master Quinn was very clear of Jack's situation in the Hughes family.

"Let's go. I'm indeed here for this matter and provide some closure for the Quinn family." Madam Hughes scoffed.

Old Master Quinn was overjoyed. He kept his silence for several days to wait for the Hughes family's reaction to this. Now that Madam Hughes personally came to resolve the matter, Old Master Quinn could finally relax.

This was a blood feud!

This concerned the reputation and status of the Quinn family. As the richest family in X City, if they couldn't retaliate, then they would end up with the same fate as the Burton family.

They chatted and laughed as they walked towards the cars.

Behind them, the rest of the Quinn and Hughes family followed.

On the other side.

As he returned to the office, Jack received a call from Amber and went out.

When he saw Amber, Jack asked, "What happened? Why are you so anxious this afternoon?"

Amber smiled, "My parents are coming back soon."

Jack was stunned. Amber's parents left because they went to the Hughes family. With his relationship, Steve must have successfully met his father.

"When? I'll make the necessary arrangements." Jack asked.

"Tonight." Amber said, "I'll take care of it since you are so busy. My parents won't stay for long. They'll leave tomorrow. This time they are back mainly for ..." Amber began to blush as she said shyly.

"What?" Jack failed to understand.

"You've already proposed to me." Amber's voice diminished further.

Decide the date of the marriage? Jack's eyes lit up. Since he had proposed, it was appropriate for them to talk about the date of the marriage.

Jack laughed as he rubbed his nose, "I understand. Tonight we shall discuss with your parents about the details of the wedding."

The wealthy families have strict and cumbersome etiquette and protocols. Since they will be talking about the wedding details, then he'll have to abide by the protocols. Jack did not want to muddle these matters. If he didn't do it properly, then he will feel guilty to Amber for life.

"Then I'll make the necessary arrangements. The place will still be at Uncle Mable's Four Impressions Club." Amber tiptoed, gently kissed Jack's cheek, and left happily.

Jack looked on as Amber left as he savored the warm kiss on his cheek. Suddenly, he felt rather nervous. He felt the same feelings when they confirmed their relationship and for the proposal. Although it was his second marriage, he would feel nervous when he thought about Amber.

He took a deep breath.

Jack shook his head and laughed at himself, "What are you nervous about? Amber gave me her life, what do I have to be nervous about?"

Time passed quickly and it was six in the evening.

Mr. Ward drove the Rolls Royce with Sophie inside and waited for Jack to finish with his work. After entering the car, they went to the Four Impressions Club.

The atmosphere was warm long the entire way. What made Jack speechless was Sophie had already begun to discuss with Mr. Ward what to name Jack and Amber's child.

Jack couldn't listen to it anymore, "Mom, we're just going to discuss the marriage date and now you are already picking names for the child? Aren't you too anxious?"

"Silly boy, what's so wrong with that? It's good to be prepared." Sophie glared oddly at him.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Jack was speechless. What his mother did was to hint to him to quickly give her a grandchild. But he could also understand his mother's feelings.

Being married to Katherine for three years, his mother had to swallow her pride and all the insults of the Parry family. It was wishful thinking for her to expect a grandchild from Katherine.

The Parry family even wanted Jack to have his child's last name as Parry. This was a great insult to Jack. His mother never relented to this demand and Jack also objected to it. Because of this impasse, Katherine never agreed to have a child with Jack.

Now all these had passed and the family's conditions were far better. Amber was very filial to his mother and very caring towards him. He was sure that his mother would be happy with such a marriage. The Rolls Royce drove into the Four Impressions Club.

After getting out, the three of them walked to the Bamboo grove. There already was laughter coming from the Bamboo grove.

"Steve, this time it must be a rewarding trip!" Minister Mable laughed.

Steve smiled radiantly and said in satisfaction, "Rewarding, rewarding! These were also results of my years of hard work!"

With Jack's relationship, he was received with the highest honor. The head of the Hughes family personally received him and addressed him as 'kin' which caused Steve to be overjoyed.

Patrick agreed without any hesitation to cooperate with Steve's business ventures. When he mentioned this, he was so happy and excited that he could leap out of his skin!

"Dragon-in-law, Jack is really the Knight family's dragon-in-law!" Steve praised Jack proudly in his heart but said carefully to Minister Mable, "Mable, let me say honestly, I'm back this time to hasten them to get married, otherwise I remain very nervous about this issue."

Rosie shook her head and smiled as she sat by his side.

"You're afraid that Jack escapes?" Minister Mable raised his eyebrows.

Steve nodded solemnly.0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
