Winner Takes All
Chapter 330 Easy To Lie To

Tick...tick...

There was a sound in his ears.

When his mother was seriously ill, he took care of her all the year round in the hospital. Jack was no stranger to this sound.

This is the sound of the heartbeat.

He slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself still lying in the bedroom of the Bamboo Grove.

What he saw was completely different from before the injury and passing out.

There was an upright liquid rod, the liquid bottle hanging on it.

And... the strong smell of disinfectant.

Jack couldn't help but smile. It seemed that as long as it involved medical treatment, he couldn't do without the smell of disinfectant.

There were all kinds of instruments on the side of the bed.

He lowered his gaze to glance at himself, and Jack smiled helplessly.

His whole body was wrapped in white gauze, he looked almost like a mummy.

With a slight movement, the severe pain immediately swept through his body. Jack was in so much pain that he sucked in a cold air.

No one else was in the house.

Jack laid there helplessly, silently recalling the moments of the battle in the bamboo forest that night.

Amber was injured, making him completely give up on life and death.

At that time, he had only one idea, even if he died, he would take Kotaro with him.

It could even be said that he has entered a state of madness, completely ignoring the advantage of number brought by the presence of Mr. Ward and Lone Wolf and the others. He was simply thinking, saving Amber even if he died!

Fortunately, Kotaro was terrified at the time and confused.

That was why he finished Kotaro with the smallest injury.

Thinking of how Amber was injured that night, Jack couldn't help but to feel distressed.

He had already figured out a way to keep Amber away from the whirlpool of right and wrong, and even coaxed Amber to leave the territory and go to the other side of the ocean. But he didn't expect that Amber never left.

Moreover, Daisy, who has been working as a nanny at his home, was actually the 20th top killer in the Assassin Squad's Azrael List!

From the very beginning, Daisy appeared as Mengpo, she never thought of killing him, but instead protecting him!

Such a change in identity made Jack feel a bit like in a dream.

All kinds of puzzles were intertwined, like rotten cotton wool.

There was a squeak.

The door opened.

Amber walked in with the hot water basin.

Seeing Jack on the bed with his eyes open, Amber trembled and was startled.

The water basin in her hand dropped and fell to the ground with a sound.

Jack, who was in his own thoughts, returned to his senses and smiled softly when he saw Amber, "Wifey."

Amber regained her senses and glanced at the basin on the ground, feeling a little at a loss.

She turned away and walked out, "Honey, wait a minute, I'll go get some fresh water to wash your body."

Wash him?

Jack was startled, no wonder he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Had Amber been taking care of him while he was passed out?

Looking at Amber who turned to leave, Jack felt guilty.

With Amber's background, she didn't need to take care of anyone.

She was the eldest daughter, a top-notch wealthy beauty, who had someone taking care of herself since childhood.

To be able to take care of him whilst he was out was an extremely difficult challenge for Amber.

"Come back."

Jack called for Amber.

Amber stopped abruptly.

Her pretty face was full of sorrow and distress, the beautiful eyes instantly filled with tears.

She suddenly turned around and ran to Jack's bed.

She laid down directly on Jack, trembling, and faintly crying.

Because of this gesture, Jack's wound was pressed. The pain made Jack knit his brows, but he gritted his teeth without making a sound.

He looked at Amber who was sobbing, and couldn't help saying, "Let it out if you want to cry."

Amber got up angrily and slapped Jack on the chest.

"Ah!"

Jack couldn't help it now and called out.

"So.. Sorry, honey."

Amber was so frightened that she turned pale, and she hurriedly raised her hand and rubbed it gently on Jack's chest.

"I know you are angry, but you don't have to kill your husband, do you?" Jack pretended to be in pain, and joked.

"Only because you were lying to me!"

Amber's pretty face was sullen, "You have always been like this. You have always carried everything yourself. It used to be, and it is still like this now. Have you ever treated me as your wife?" "Of course you are my wife!" Jack said seriously.

"Then why do you have to carry everything by yourself? I am your wife and I am willing to share it with you!" Amber said seriously.

Jack lost his senses for a while and smiled bitterly, "Just because you are my wife, I have to take everything down and keep you away from the grievances."

"So you lied to me? Tried to get me and Daisy to my parents? Then you were almost hacked to death here?"

A series of questions made the anger on Amber's face grow stronger.

She called him "big liar" fiercely, raising her hand to pinch Jack, but looking at Jack covered with gauze, she felt like there was nowhere to start.

Finally, she put her hand down again dejectedly, and said angrily, "Are you not afraid you will be struck by lightening if you do this?"

"Of course not!" Jack said indifferently, "As long as you are okay, I don't care!"

Amber was stunned for a moment, and then laid on Jack's chest with tears in her eyes, and said softly, "Big dummy, promise me that you won't lie to me anymore! I am your wife and I can take it with you. I don't want to see you working so hard, and I don't want you to face any danger alone!"

Jack's expression looked complicated, looking at Amber on his chest, he hesitated to speak.

In the end, he smiled, "Okay, I promise you, go get me some water to wipe my body, it's very uncomfortable."

Amber got up, wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and went outside.

Looking at Amber's back, Jack smiled gently, "Silly girl, you are so easy to lie to."

After scrubbing, Jack felt a lot more comfortable.

At the same time Jack also learned from Amber that he was in a coma for a whole week!

This shocked Jack. There were too many things that could happen in a week!

He hurriedly asked Amber to call Mr. Ward, Daisy and Lone Wolf.

But when the three arrived, Jack was surprised that Brent was there as well.

It was just that Brent was still in a wheelchair and was pushed in by Daisy. "Young Master!"

Brent looked at Jack and smiled, "You finally woke up."

"We really are brothers who go through everything together."

Jack laughed to himself, causing Brent to laugh helplessly.

Immediately, Jack looked at Daisy, "Daisy..."

Before he could ask, Daisy said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hughes, for keeping this from you for so long."

"It's okay, if it wasn't for you this time, I would have died under Kotaro's Katana!" Jack said sincerely.

Although Daisy had been concealing her true identity, in the end, Daisy really helped a lot in the battle in the bamboo forest that night!

Moreover, she was injured as well!

Subconsciously, Jack glanced at Daisy's belly.

Daisy said hurriedly, "It's not a big problem anymore. I managed to hide quickly that night, it's only a skin injury. It isn't a big deal."

At this time, Mr. Ward stepped forward, took out his phone and handed it to Jack.

"Young Master, the issue Daisy and the others can wait a moment. You need to take a look at the Dark Web Assassin Squad first. There are new updates this week." His tone was low and solemn, with a sense of despair.☐☐☐☐
