Winner Takes All
Chapter 555 Hana Powel

The next three days Jack continued to take care of Amber at the hospital. Lone Wolf and Lyndall were recovering from their wounds. Nothing was out of the ordinary.

Jack was with Amber every day enjoying each other's company blissfully. Amber was recovering very well under such circumstances. But Jack did not have the luxury to relax because he was clear that what was before him was just an appearance. The real nightmare was miles away at the Hughes family!

The Powell family had been at the Hughes family for three days. Jack was unclear how his father was maneuvering against the Powell family.

Mr. Ward who had been monitoring the Hughes family also could not obtain any details. Jack could not relax as long as the issue with the Powell family could not be resolved. This was a titan whose might could smother him in an instant.

When his father was maneuvering against the Powell family, any uttering of the wrong word could bring disaster upon him. The three days of peace unsettled Jack as he felt like it was the calm before the

storm.

On the fourth day, Ciara from the capital called Jack and pulled him out of his misery.

"Mr. Hughes, I'll need you to come personally to negotiate a project," Ciara said directly.

"Me personally?" Jack was surprised. The entertainment company had been solely run by Ciara since its establishment even when the Vaughn family joined the partnership. Even the large projects were solely handled by Ciara. When she needed resources, the Wattson, Vaughn families, and Jack would support her. This was the first time that Ciara invited him to negotiate on a project. This made Jack feel that something was amiss.

"I can't help it, the other party insisted on seeing you." Ciara expressed her inability to change this demand, "I tried to negotiate several times but they rejected me when they didn't see you." Interesting! Jack smiled.

But when he saw Amber, he was about to reject Ciara when Amber smiled and said, "Go, your work is more important. Ciara wouldn't ask you to go If the project isn't huge and she could handle it alone." Amber understood Ciara's personality after knowing her for so long. Ciara wasn't just a pretty face, she was also a very strong and capable woman.

"But I wish to take care of you." Jack hesitated.

"Let Daisy come and keep me company. How can a man revolve around his wife every day?"

Amber glared at Jack, "You had already stayed with me for so many days. Quickly go out and earn some money for our child."

Jack's heart warmed up and kissed Amber before agreeing to Ciara's request. Thereafter, Jack informed Mr. Ward and Brent about going to the Capital. On hearing, Mr. Ward wanted to dissuade Jack from going but Jack waved his hand in refusal.

"Come what may. It's meaningless to live in fear. Would I be able to avoid the Powell family's wrath if I don't go out to work?"

"The capital is too close to the Hughes residence." Mr. Ward stated his worries.

Now the Hughes residence was like a lion's den. With the Hughes and Powell family in discussion, no one knew what was going on in the Hughes family. If the negotiation failed and Jack was to be in the Capital, then he would not have any protection and countless dangers would befall him.

"Would distance matter when dealing with the Powell family?" Jack rubbed his nose and smiled. What he said stumped Mr. Ward. The Powell family had been established for centuries and with such influence and authority, there was nowhere that Jack could hide if they wanted to capture him.

"Then let Brent go with you." Mr. Ward suggested.

"No need, I'll go on my own." Jack waved his hand and rejected Mr. Ward's suggestion, "I'll just go and help Ciara with a project. I'd probably be back by tomorrow."

It was already five in the afternoon when Jack arrived at the Capital Airport.

He saw Ciara standing beside a red-colored Ferrari as soon as he exited the airport. The short-cropped hair, light makeup, and well-fitted suit drew much attention to Ciara as she stood elegantly. "Did you wait for long?" Jack wheeled himself towards her.

"I just arrived." Ciara took off her sunglasses and her expression darkened and frowned as she looked at Jack's legs. Although she didn't visit Jack when he returned, she knew about Jack's crippled condition. Even if she knew about it, it was a different matter when she saw it for herself. She was shocked and upset when she saw Jack in the wheelchair. She felt like Jack was glowing when she first saw him, but

now...

"You don't have to pity me." Jack smiled.

"Don't worry, you'll recover from this," Ciara said as she took a deep breath to compose herself. Thereafter she pushed Jack to the passenger seat and helped Jack into the car.

The car started and they were on their way.

Jack looked at Ciara and asked, "What's up with this project?"

"It's a big project. It's about three movies, two product endorsements and a large history documentary. The initial investment would cost a billion yuan." Ciara said calmly.

"A billion?!" Jack rubbed his nose and looked outside as if he recalled something and murmured, "I remember the first time my father gave me a billion yuan as my allowance." Ciara was speechless.

But Jack understood that the Hughes family wealth was different from the others and an allowance was different from an investment. He could feel Ciara's cold disdain, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I'm just kidding."

"It's not funny." Ciara rolled her eyes.

Jack pursed his lips and said, "But you are really daring to put so much money on one person!"

"Because it's worth it." Ciara laughed and continued, "It's the movie queen Hana Powel. Don't you think that she is worth a billion?"

"Hana Powel?" Jack was stunned. He seldom paid attention to the entertainment industry. That was why he was unfamiliar with the name Hana. When Ivy shot to fame, she equally crashed because of him. Hana entered the entertainment industry at the age of eighteen and immediately took the industry by storm. Thereafter, she remained hotly popular for over a decade and without a sign of slowing down.

At each large movie festival, she would win countless awards and became the darling of numerous directors, businessmen, and investors. The turnover in the entertainment industry was rapid. It was extremely rare for someone to remain at the top of the pyramid for more than ten years. She was a huge A-list movie star!

"It must be difficult for you to secure Hana!" Jack rubbed his nose and joked.

"How do we have the capability to do that? It was because of the Vaughn family's initial support for Hana before she became famous. It was only because of this that we were able to get Hana for this project." Ciara said.

Jack then said in surprise, "Then why can't Vinna or someone from the Vaughn family negotiate this project? Why must I come all the way?"

"Recently that gal..."

Ciara frowned and pursed her lips when she heard the name Vinna. She then side looked at Jack and said, "The Vaughns can help but Hana insisted on meeting you." Jack was speechless...
