Winner Takes All -
Chapter 509 Dog Shit
The tone was calm.
Yet, the words seemed like they had exploded in everyone's ear like thunder.
The firm tone of voice seemed like it didn't give any room for negotiation. The words themselves were the decision made! Jack Hughes laughed coldly in his heart.
Even though he had already expected it, Madam Hughes's words had still made him feel depressed in his heart.
'Only a few words and my presence today suddenly became a coincidental encounter?'
'The Hughes family treated me as a bastard. Why would they call me to attend the family dinner?'
'Calling me to be here like a hypocrite. Yet, my presence today became a coincidental encounter like what you had said. Were you trying to be innocent after doing this bad thing?' Upon hearing Madam Hughes's words.
Jack could clearly feel that the gazes with evil intentions towards him.
Some of them were surprised. Some of them took pleasure in other people's misfortune. Some of them didn't even hide their hatred towards him...
There were a few sympathetic gazes mixed within those gazes with bad intention as if they were not even there.
"Grandmother is right. If there is a disabled heir in the Hughes family, then we would be laughed at by the whole world!"
Suddenly, a voice broke the silence in the hall.
Jack slowly raised his head and looked at George Hughes who got up quickly at the small table.
At the moment, George showed a bright smile with a straight back. He seemed like a villain who had achieved his goal as he stared at Jack.
These words were like boiling water that was poured into an oil pot.
It immediately made everyone heated.
"Grandmother, please make the right judgment. George is right. Who was not a young and outstanding person for the past heir? Jack indeed has talents. However, his legs are disabled and he has to spend the rest of his time in a wheelchair. He doesn't deserve to be the heir anymore!"
Ivy Hughes got up right after George. Her extraordinary pretty face showed a smug look. She didn't even hide her hatred and scorn towards Jack when she looked at him.
Jack calmly looked at George and Ivy.
Then, he slowly looked at Killian Hughes.
'The two out of three enemies of the young generation of the Hughes family had stood up now.'
'Killian should stand up soon, right?'
However, after waiting for two seconds, Killian was still sitting on the chair calmly. He even leaned his back against the chair lazily without doing anything while looking at George and Ivy with a smile. "He was calm. It was such a great chance to take me down. He actually still able to stay still to look at us fighting each other."
This was the thought in Jack's mind.
Killian had been far ahead of George and Ivy with this scene alone.
As the two people from the young generation got up.
At the main table, the voices of the agreement also sounded immediately.
"Madam Hughes is right. The Hughes family is huge and rich. The heirs are required to compete for the head of the family in the future. If the fact that one of the heirs is a disabled person is known, then the Hughes family would be laughed at by everyone!"
"Madam Hughes is being considerate for the future of the Hughes family. I agree with her!"
The fierce voices were like criticisms in speech towards Jack. They had immediately made Jack become a target for all.
Mr. Ward and Brent who stood behind Jack were extremely furious and depressed.
They had known that Jack would suffer from the scene in front of them.
However, the fact that everyone was trying to take Jack down when he was in a difficult position still made them feel aggrieved. They clearly knew that it was Madam Hughes's plan.
She knew that Jack was 'disabled' and she intentionally set up this family dinner to expose Jack's 'disability' to everyone.
Even if Jack didn't come to the Hughes family tonight, Madam Hughes would definitely use the other ways to expose this matter.
It was unavoidable!
It was unstoppable!
The only thing that made Mr. Ward slightly relieved was the fact that he knew Jack's legs were not really disabled. Jack still had a great chance to make a comeback.
However... it was such a great trump card. Wouldn't it be too wasteful if he used it tonight?
A person slowly got up under the sound from the crowd.
Jack stared at the person and his face became extremely cold instantly.
That person was... Archer Hughes!
"Jack, you can't blame me for bullying you while your father is not around. Who asks you to be this disappointing?"
Archer pretended to make a long sigh and he said helplessly, "You have made yourself disabled. You are the heir of the Hughes family. This is a huge matter for the Hughes family. I believe that your father would definitely make the right call by looking at the overall situation if he is around. I also advise you to give up your identity as an heir. Stop ashaming the Hughes family."
Archer's words suddenly made everyone silent.
Madam Hughes and Carter Hughes looked at Jack scornfully.
'Even your third uncle had this kind of attitude. You should have nothing more to say, right?'
"Haha!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jack suddenly lowered his head and laughed.
His laughter immediately made everyone stunned.
'What did you mean?'
'This bastard, how could he still able to laugh at this moment?'
Jack suddenly raised his head while showing a fierce look and pressured Archer, "My third uncle, what if I don't listen to your kind advice?"
Upon hearing that.
Everyone frowned.
Archer was angry and he harshly slapped on the table. He said angrily.
"Jack, I am giving you face to fall back. Don't overestimate yourself! Madam Hughes's decision is correct. You are merely a bastard who was left out by the Hughes family. Now, your legs are disabled. Do you think you are still qualified to be the heir?"
"Your identity as an heir is not earned legitimately. Now, your legs have been disabled. Do you still want to shamelessly muddle along with the name of the Hughes family? Even if your father is around, with both of your legs, he would have to take away your identity as the heir in front of us!"
"It is okay to be arrogant as a young man. However, do not be that arrogant until you do not know your place! If you still refuse to obey and want to challenge us, don't blame us for bullying you youngster when your father is not around! You'd better listen to us. We, the Hughes family could generously give you, who is a disabled bastard, some benefits!"
The words were harsh and rude.
Compared with the two, the previous criticisms from the crowd were merely a joke.
However, Jack was still smiling but his smile had slowly become cold to the extreme as if the coldness could penetrate into the bone barrow.
His hands tightly held on the armrests of his wheelchair quietly.
"Archer, stop being rude to my young master!"
Suddenly, Mr. Ward shouted.
"You are merely a fucking old family servant. How dare you bark at your master?"
Archer's voice and expression were fierce. He suddenly took a wine glass on the table and smashed it towards Mr. Ward.
"Brent!"
Jack shouted.
Smash!
Brent harshly punched and smashed the flying wine glass into pieces.
He took a step forward and his tall and strong body gave a lot of pressure to everyone.
"Brent, you. Do you want to hit me?"
Archer's facial expression changed a lot. He took two steps back in fear, "I, I am your master!"
Everyone also showed a feared and frightened look.
Everyone knew how strong Brent was. Otherwise, the magnificent Hughes family would not let Brent responsible to train the fighting skills of the entire young generation.
Brent looked serious and fierce. His cold voice was suddenly heard in the hall.
"Master? Who do you think you are? Since I, Brent, entered the Hughes family, I only recognize Patrick Hughes as my master. And now there is another person. He is Jack Hughes. You... what kind of dog shit are you?"
Buzz!
Suddenly, the words made everyone hear a buzz in their heads.
Archer's face became red as he was furious and his body trembled.
Brent's words had harshly trampled his face into the mud in front of the crowd!
Jack raised his hand and rubbed his nose. His gaze was extremely cold.
The next second.
His words were like thunder that made everyone shocked. Their expression had changed a lot. Jack put down his right hand that he used to rub his nose and he calmly pointed at Archer. "Brent, he wanted to hurt Mr. Ward. Help me to teach this dog shit a lesson!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
