The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 966 My Life Is Not As Important As My Son

In the rolling mountains outside the capital city.

The manor of the Hughes family was brightly lit. To look down at it from the high sky, it looked like a

silver moon that had fallen to the ground.

It blossomed with a light that belonged to it alone in the darkness of the mountains.

Even though it was late at night.

In the airport of the Hughes family, planes were constantly taking off and landing.

In the Hughes family, there was never a shortage of people visiting them no matter what time it was.

The entire manor of the Hughes family was like a giant wealth-creating machine that was running non-

stop 24 hours a day.

Inside the room of the family head.

Patrick switched off the computer, leant back in the chair, closed his eyes and lightly pinched the bridge

of his nose.

As the head of the family who was at the helm of the Hughes family, even though the tasks had been

categorized and distributed to those who were in power to handle them, the tasks that really had to be

handled by Patrick were still tedious and heavy.

Especially during this recent period.

The Bloody Trap that was meant for Jack had made Patrick even more exhausted.

He had the intention to help Jack but he could only sit tight due to the situation.

The position he was in and the things he knew were not something Jack who was trapped in Bloody

Trap could understand.

Originally, it was only an internal affair of the Hughes family in which Jack and the heirs of the Hughes

family competed for the crown of the next family head.

But now, this war already spread outward rapidly.

The involvement was too deep and the depth was too wide.

Even though he took control of the Hughes family, he also did not dare to take action easily.

“I knew there would be the scene like today but I didn’t expect that it would come so much faster, more

urgent and more violent than what I expected.”

Patrick rubbed his face and opened his eyes with his head back. He looked at the ceiling tiredly and

said helplessly and disconsolately,“Sophie, what I planned was to let Jack become the head of the

family before the occurrence of Bloody Trap. At that time, Jack can also be sheltered by the Hughes

family and fight against it with the power of the Hughes family. But unexpectedly, things have gone

beyond my expectations. This time, you really have to bless Jack in heaven…”

There was a strong sense of melancholy and exhaustion.

If this scene was seen by outsiders, they would certainly be dumbfounded as if they were in a dream.

When did the head of the Hughes family ever look like this?

“I don’t know how is Jack doing after going to Dragon Cavalry for this period.”

Patrick’s eyes flickered and he snapped his fingers.

Soon.

The door of the room was opened. A man wrapped in black robes walked in and stood in the doorway

silently.

“Go and find out Jack’s recent situation in Dragon Cavalry.”

Patrick commanded.

The black-robed man bowed and left the room.

From beginning to end, he was like a ghost.

Patrick’s tired face finally revealed a smile, “To Jack, Dragon Cavalry is really an unexpected good

thing. This is also considered Brown’s protection for Jack. With Zenith there, Bloody Trap will become

nothing. I wonder when Jack returns, how much will he actually grow?”

Time passed slowly.

Patrick leant back in the chair and the fingertips of his right hand were gently tapping on the table.

Knock knock knock…

The soft and slow knocks echoed in the room.

After waiting for about ten minutes.

The black-robed man who had left just now walked in and still kept silent as he had been earlier.

“How is Jack doing?”

Patrick looked at the black-robed man with expectation in his eyes.

Thump!

The black-robed man knelt on both knees.

This scene immediately made Patrick’s face change. He sat up straight, “I’m asking you to report on

Jack’s recent situation, not to kneel!”

His tone was a bit stiff, even with anger.

However.

The black-robed man suddenly kowtowed and let out a deep voice, “Master, the young master…

disappeared when he was on a mission of Dragon Cavalry!”

Boom!

Patrick was apparently struck by lightning. His face abruptly became hideous.

Bang!

In a fit of anger, his fist came down on the solid wood table and destroyed it on the spot.

“How could this happen? Why is this happening? My son, Jack went to Dragon Cavalry and with Zenith

sheltering him, why…why is he still missing?”

A series of questions echoed in the room.

The black-robed man prostrated on the ground, not daring to move. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

At this time, Patrick completely boiled with rage and lost control of himself. His entire person was as if

the volcano that became active. With anger, the vast and domineering aura was like a great mountain

that collapsed and even breathing had become extremely difficult when it approached the black-robed

man!

“Say! What the hell are Zenith and Dragon Cavalry doing?”

Patrick stood still and looked down at the black-robed man. His eyes were even rounded like a tiger’s

eyes. His anger was enormous.

“Searching, they are already searching. However, according to the news, the young master is in crisis.

The best, best result is that he may have strayed to foreign tribes…”

The black-robed man’s heart throbbed with fear as he reported apprehensively.

Thump!

Patrick staggered back and sat dumbfoundedly on the chair.

At this moment, he was entirely dumbstruck, “Foreign…strayed…and this is even the best result?”

In the north of the foreign territory, there were great numbers of tribes.

In the opinion of people in the territory, they were just groups of ruthless two-legged beasts that drank

blood!

The deep hatreds that had been accumulated for a thousand years or even thousands of years were as

vast as the sea.

Once someone in territory strayed to foreign territory, it was simply as if a lamb had gone into the

shelter of a pack of wolves!

It was not exaggerated at all to say that the person had walked into hell!

And this…was the best result?

What about the worst?

Patrick’s chest was undulating violently. He gritted his teeth, “Ask all Undercover Guards to go to north

and look for my son in the snowy plains of foreign territory!”

What?!

The black-robed man was astonished. He bit the bullet and raised his head to face Patrick’s mighty and

domineering aura, “Master, Undercover Guard is your last card. If we all go to foreign territory to look

for the young master, the security power of the Hughes family alone will be useless and defenceless for

old master!”

Undercover Guard was the defence squad that Patrick personally set up and hid in the Hughes family.

Each of them was a martial arts expert and a top security member.

This was why Patrick could send Brent to Jack’s side without hesitation at that time.

With Undercover Guards around, Patrick still had protection around him.

Once Undercover Guard was gone, there would be no defence around him at all!

As the head of the Hughes family, he was at risk of being killed every day not only by the people

outside but even within the Hughes family!

Patrick’s decision was absolutely made without considering his own safety at all!

“My life is not as important as my son.”

Patrick gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from his teeth, “If my son can return safely, does

it matter if my broken body is sacrificed? Go, do you and Undercover Guards intend to disobey my

order?”

As Patrick spoke, his eyes reddened.

He was a man who was in a great position while ruling the world’s health and was used to seeing the

monstrous tsunamis.

But at this time, his body was trembling. Tears actually welled up in his red eyes.

“Roger that!”

The black-robed man answered heavily. Then, he quickly went out of the room.

“Jack…”

When the black-robed man left, Patrick murmured. Two lines of tears could no longer be contained and

directly streamed down the corners of his eyes.
