The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 739

Jim felt confused and couldn’t understand Jack’s decision.

However as per Jack’s request, a five-star presidential suite was booked not too far from the Zhuge family’s home.

He had originally planned to invite Jack to stay at the Zhuge family’s mansion, but Jack bluntly refused.

This had been what made Jim feel rather disappointed about.

This was because if he had been able to invite Jack to stay at their house temporarily then this would have not only made his grandfather proud, but he would have also felt honoured.

The reason for this was simple; the Zhuge family could have the opportunity to become the the richest family within X City, it all relied on Jack.

Another reason was because Jim also needed Jack’s power and influence to deter the other powerful members within the family.

Jim then pushed Jack into the room.

He then carefully placed down Jack’s luggage and said, “Mr. Hughes, I have booked the room next door to yours, so if you need anything then please call me.”

“There’s no need, you can go home first.” Jack said.

Jim frowned slightly and then said with a smile, “My grandfather specially asked me to take care of you on this trip. So if I were to abandon you and go straight back to my home then he would probably break my two legs for this.”

“Alright then, but I don’t want to be disturbed by anyone if I don’t need anything.”

Jack’s tone of voice exposed a slight harshness.

This was because to him, the Zhuge Family was just like how Aiden was to him at first. Their relationship was not very close and was nothing more than a relationship driven by potential interests.

If Jack had nothing that was of interest to them, then the Zhuge family would never have approached him.

Their relationship hadn’t reached the point where they were on pleasant terms and could speak without holding back yet.

Once Jim had left.

Jack then checked the time and muttered, “She should have arrived by now, right?”

Jack pushed his wheelchair, made two cups of tea, and waited quietly.

About five minutes later.

Click...

A knock was then heard on the door.

Jack opened the door and then saw Amelia stood by the door.

Ever since Yael had fallen into a coma, Amelia had taken charge of the Quinn family alone. She had even made some changes to her appearance which had made her look more dignified and capable.

She wore a black and white OL suit and her long hair was tied into a ponytail. She had left two locks of hair to rest over her face, which added a touch of tenderness to her overall dignified look.

However he then noticed that she looked very tired and had two dark circles under her eyes.

“What’s the matter? You don’t say hello anymore or something?”

Jack felt a little distressed, for he and Yael were very close as if like brothers, so therefore Yael’s sister was also naturally as if his own sister.

“Jack.”

Amelia said, but her voice was rather hoarse.

Jack frowned.

It seemed that during these past few days, the Quinn family hadn’t been much at peace.

Once she entered the room.

Jack then pointed to the tea he had just brewed that was on the table and said, “Have a cup of tea.”

Amelia then picked up the tea cup and drank slowly.

Because the tea was still a bit hot, she had to be careful as she drank it.

Jack was sitting in his wheelchair, watching quietly beside her, not in any hurry.

This visit was to clarify things regarding the Quinn family.

As soon as he had landed, he didn’t know about the internal situation of the Quinn family and so went directly to the Hughes family’s home, which now perhaps was an unwise decision.

But he had checked into the hotel first so he could wait for Amelia to come over and report the situation regarding the Quinn family.

This was what he and Amelia had agreed on last night.

The reason he hadn’t got the information regarding the situation from Mr. Ward was because he chose to consult with Amelia when he got to X City.

The reason for this was because Amelia was now in charge of the Quinn family and therefore the information that she had about the Quinn family would be in a lot more detail than what Mr. Ward would have known.

Inside the suite was quiet.

But from time to time, Amelia would make a sound when she gently blew on her tea.

“Amelia, you’ve had to deal with a lot recently.”

Jack said sincerely as he looked at the fatigued Amelia.

He had learned about this girl’s experiences through Yael, so felt very empathetic towards her.

And because of Yael, he regarded Amelia as his sister.

Amelia’s age was still very young after all.

When he finally spoke his voice came out rather hoarse as he said, “Who in the Quinn family did this?”

He knew that the Quinn family was not in a state of peace currently, since he had heard similar things from both Mr. Ward and Jim.

But he had always thought that they were cooperating but were just having some disagreements on how to seek profit.

However the hand mark on Amelia’s face seemed to have been caused by a member of the Quinn family.

This must be a… “rebellion”!

He knew that Amelia was the one who was holding the current Quinn family together!

But now these beasts in human form who took advantage of other’s misfortunes had now reached this deranged level?

Faced with Jack’s questions.

Amelia began to feel even more flustered and she avoided Jack’s gaze.

At this moment the way Jack was making her feel began to make her tremble with fear.

“Morrison?”

Jack’s eyebrows tightened and a fierce murderous intent began to spread across his face.

“No, no it’s not…”

Amelia shook her head.

Jack then chuckled.

He suddenly felt this was rather funny and the corner of his mouth then twitched revealing a sneer.

“Alright then! Morrison is the Quinn family’s eldest son. When I killed his father right in front of him he didn’t do anything. I thought all this time he has been building up his power and now wants to take the opportunity to form a rebellion.”

After a slight pause, Jack held the teacup in his right hand and then said in a cold voice, “It seems I have underestimated the Quinn family. It also seems that the Quinn family is concealing many talented people, and each one appears to be more outstanding than the other!”

Snap!

The teacup then broke into pieces and the tea splashed out.

As the cup broke, Amelia let out a scream and her face turned pale.

A fierce and murderous intent was emitting off of Jack’s body.

In an instant, Amelia then felt as if countless sharp needles were being pierced into her body.

At this moment she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, feeling both cold and frightened…
