Winner Takes All novel Chapter 604

Regarding Yael.

Jack knew his past and also knew that the word “Father killer” had been deeply seeded in his heart like a demon.

On the surface, Yael acted like he didn’t care about whatever groundless rumors the world spread about him.

But he was caught in a dilemma whenever someone actually wanted to share gossips and rumors with him.

Similarly, if that person was Jack, the same thing was going to happen.

Without forcing Yael, it would have been hard to get him out of the dilemma.

After walking with Amber for a while, they returned home.

He saw Yael and Mr. Ward sneaking upstairs while holding beer.

Brent was right behind them, holding two large boxes of beer.

Jack smiled and said to Amber, “Amber, you go and rest first. I will go up and have a look.”

Amber smiled and went straight upstairs.

Jack pushed his wheelchair towards the rooftop.

The night wind was blowing.

Yael, Mr. Ward and Brent had already started drinking.

While drinking, Yael was complaining to Mr. Ward as if a resentful woman.

Mr. Ward smiled as if he was taking joy.

Brent sat on the side, sometimes looking enlightened and sometimes puzzled. After all, the conversation between Yael and Mr. Ward was actually a bit beyond the scope of his emotions.

Seeing Jack.

Yael stopped and looked at Jack helplessly.

“Vinna treats you really well and you are a grownup man, do you really need to be like this?”

Jack approached the three of them by pushing his wheelchair, somewhat grumbling towards Yael.

“But I am completely out of the game.” Yael said resentfully.

It was because of Vinna’s involvement that he was discharged early from the hospital.

Yael’s physical condition was not very good at this time, and his face still looked a little pale. A faint scar could be seen on his left eyelid which was caused by the broken glass shards.

However, this didn’t damage Yael’s attractiveness. On the contrary, it made him look a bit evil and melancholic.

Looking at Yael up and down, Jack vaguely recalled what happened that night in the capital city.

She had stood by Yael even in that situation. She didn’t even hesitate before kneeling down on broken glass to hold Yael.

And Yael was saying he was “completely out of the game”?

“You are not aware of how much in the happiness you are.”

Jack glared at Yael sternly, raised his hand to take a bottle from Brent and took a sip of beer before saying, “That night in the capital city, when you were almost beaten to death by Chattis, Vinna still didn’t give up on you; she still didn’t leave. But look at you right now, talking like this. You are really a scumbag. No matter what someone does for you, you take their good will for ill intent.”

He reprimanded Yael mercilessly.

Both Mr. Ward and Brent were surprised.

Jack seldom lashed out like this at Yael.

The two were shocked, but at the same time their faces showed confusion.

They were not present that night in the capital city and did not know what had happened.

“Have you seen her knees?” Jack asked.

Hearing his words.

Yael’s expressions suddenly fell sadly as he recalled.

After a long time.

He smiled bitterly, raised the bottle and said to Jack, “Thank you, Jack. I would have died without you that night.”

Jack narrowed his eyes slightly, the corners of his eyes crinkling.

He shook his head sternly, “It is not fun at all that you always avoid her like that.”

“Why did you help her?” Yael’s bitter smile became extremely awkward, “I am your friend.”

The corners of Jack’s mouth twitched. He gave Yael a contemptuous look and stopped talking.

Seeing this made Yael at a loss.

He lowered his head again to recall his memories. Hie expressions looked complicated and his eyes flickered.

Mr. Ward and Brent looked at each other.

No one had expected for the atmosphere to suddenly turn so embarrassing.

After a pause, Mr. Ward advised, “Yael, you are not so young now. You seem to be really interested in Vinna. You should consider starting a family too.”

“But I…”

Yael raised his head, wanting to argue.

Mr. Ward nodded and smiled, “I know what you are thinking. In fact, there not much to worry about. You think Vinna wouldn’t want to? She clearly knows that you killed your own father, but she still chooses to be with you. This means that she is prepared to endure the slander with you.”

“Love can flatten the mountains and calm the seas. If Vinna can do it, what are you being overcautious for?”

Yael’s eyes became deep and erratic.

Finally.

He scratched his head irritably and said angrily, “Too irritating.” Then he got up and walked downstairs.

“Stubborn as a rock.”

Jack looked at Yael who was leaving and cursed.

Mr. Ward smiled, “He will figure it out. Vinna can handle this imp.”

Jack waved his hand dismissively, not wanting to continue this topic.

He randomly found another topic and chatted with Mr. Ward and Brent.

The three had mutual understanding and did not mention The Hughes Family and the assassination.

What had happened could not be undone and according to Mr. Ward three days were going to be enough.

Even if these three days were not enough, after a maximum of three days father was going to leak out the matter of the Dark Net Assassin Squad and continue to investigate. Having father as a shelter, after all, it was going to take some time.

On the other side.

After Yael walked out of the rooftop irritably.

He returned to the bedroom. But he was not sleepy; he tossed and turned in the bed irritably.

In the dimly lit room.

*Click*

He turned on the lighter and lit a cigarette.

Yael sat in front of the window sill, smoking a cigarette fiercely as he looked out the window with a sad expression in his deep eyes.

“I… don’t deserve it.”

He whispered softly, revealing endless melancholy.

If anyone else saw him like this, they were bound to sigh.

He had always been a prodigal son; He could have numerous women in his life, but none of them will be entering in his heart. Frivolous and arrogant Yael, unexpectedly also had such dejected and melancholic side of him.

But, all of this.

The outsiders did not know.

In the dark, the cigarette pulsed brightly with scarlet shimmer.

Yael quickly finished smoking a cigarette and smiled bitterly, “Don’t force me too much.”

He lit another cigarette immediately afterwards.

The Hughes Family.

George’s bedroom.

Killian was silently watching George who was already awake. He looked calm on the surface but his throat moved as he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

“George…”

George looked at Killian in utter confusion, “I… am not dead?”

“Fortunately, the bullet missed the vital spot and passed directly through the body. They were able to rescue you.” Killian said calmly.

His words and manners never showed even the slightest emotion or joy.

But at this time, so late at night, he was the only one who was guarding him which was enough to prove the brotherhood between them.

Because of his sophisticated, calculating, gloomy and mistrustful nature, he had always restrained himself from showing emotions. Even when he was sitting in front of his little brother right now, he did not show any big disturbance in his mood.

If Killian really hadn’t cared about this brotherhood, he wouldn’t have gone to deal with Jack soon after George was injured by Jack.

“Ha ha…”

George chuckled, gasping sharply in pain as his wound hurt.

“Want to die?” Killian said.

George shook his head, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness, “I don’t fucking understand, who did I offend to incur this kind of unwarranted assassination.”
