Winner Takes All

“You…”

In an instance, Old Master Burton became like a raging Lion, raised his walking stick, and was about to strike down on the ground. But he suddenly paused in midair.

Stomp!

The walking stick struck firmly onto the ground. Old Master Burton took a deep breath as he calmed down and revealed a radiant smile.

“If I really were to force you to your death, wouldn’t Jack be totally detached from the Burton family?”

Sophie’s expression changed. That was exactly what she thought. Because of her link with the family, that was why Jack was constrained in what he could do to the Burton family. If she wasn’t around, Jack can dedicate himself fully to secure his position as the head of the Hughes family.

If his mother wasn’t around, he still had his father! She knew that she had been the stumbling block to Jack all these years. She will not allow Jack to forgo the opportunity of becoming the head of the Hughes family by taking over the Burton family.

Setting aside the ruthlessness of the Burton family, there was no comparison between the Hughes and Burton families! How could she allow her son to be a dragon and yet submit to the clouds?

Sophie took a deep breath and endured the intense pain on her right leg and said with determination, “Jack will never take up the head of the Burton family!”

“You spoke too soon!” Old Master Burton laughed, “Jack is not stupid, he only had a right to become the head of the Hughes family. What are his chances of becoming with the rest of the Hughes fighting for the position? But if he were to turn towards the Burton family, he will immediately become the head of the family!”

“The Burton family cannot be compared to the Hughes family but if Jack becomes the head of the family, he can likewise lord over the commoners!”

“Jack is indeed smart and he is smart enough not to salvage a bloodthirsty family. With me around, do you think that he will come to you like a moth to the fire?” Sophie laughed heartily although she was in immense pain, “I know what your motives are. Jack and I are worthless to you. What you really want is for Jack to save your family from your son who is a fool!”

Old Master Burton’s smile froze and turned gloomy.

When Sophie saw his expression, she became determined and smiled, “Based on your character, how could you bear to hand over control of the family to an ‘outsider’? You just want Jack to turn things around for your company and once things are stable, you will transfer it back to your idiotic son!”

“Even if you’re dead, you will definitely plan carefully and instruct all the fools how to gain back the authority!”

Kaboom!
