Winner Takes All

Some people were happy and some were sad after hearing that YK Group moved in.

Within just two days, the price of houses in West Shantytowns increased by 50%.

However, it was not so different from what Jack had predicted.

Because of the area and environment, the housing prices in West Shantytowns was unpredictable.

The news absolutely boosted the house pricing in West Shantytowns up to the average.

As the house prices of West Shantytowns rose against the market, the DT' staff were hilarious and at ease as before.

Jack was happy to see the situation. At least all the employees saw his capabilities through the first win. In the future, DT real estate agency would also become better and better.

Some employees were wondering why Jack would sincerely believe that such extremely high priced contract could turn the tables.

But Jack kept his mouth shut.

On the third day, when the DT almost turned the situation in a short time, West Shantytowns project was finally on the right track.

At 8:00PM, Jack brought the staff to "Green Waves" hotel and officially launched the celebratory party.

Jack drank a lot of alcohol at the party.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

He kept drinking with the employees and never rejected any toast the employees had offered.

All his capabilities and sociability were recognized by the staff.

They also knew clearly that he's the main reason why DT real estate agency was able to maintain the upward profit momentum. That's also the reason why everyone would rather make a bet when DT real estate agency's owner changed.

They all knew how useless Ben was as what he did. Only fools would be willing to follow him.

The West Shantytowns project made Jack extremely convincing to every staff.

After all, Jack felt at ease and didn't look obviously flustered at the extremely high priced contract.

Jack was quite drunk already. He slammed a hundred thousand yuan for people to have fun in another place.

Then he left the "Green Waves" hotel, and got sober a bit by the winds of the pier.

But his smile faded with red eyes.

Within just 2 weeks, he divorced and his mother was dying because of her serious sickness.

Even Katherine grabbed his last 200 thousand yuan that he wanted to use to save his mother...just for the down payment of her brother's new house.

That's ridiculous!

His wife he sincerely loved didn't care about his mother's life at all.

That made him felt like everything had crumbled, so he chose to divorce.

Perhaps common people would crumble after suffering these.

But he was lucky. His mother was saved by his heartless father he never met. His father even made him rich like a huge hand that easily changed his hard life.

He didn't mind even if he already knew that his father suddenly helped him not because of guilt.

After suffering so much, he felt that money was bastard, but without money, he would be nothing.

Everything got better. DT real estate agency won the first fight. He gave his father the perfect answer. His mother was also recovering.

He finally got in relief.

Jack walked while recalling every bit that happened over the past 2 weeks.

Jack's gaze suddenly turned sharp. He grinned and said, "Katherine... If one day you knew that after we divorced, the guy your family looked down on has the power to get your family out of difficulties easily... Would you regret taking 200 thousand yuan and ignoring my mom's life that day?"

Jack was dumbfounded after he raised his head.

Wasn't it the building that he and Katherine used to rent?

How could he walk to this place?

Jack mocked himself before realizing... That place wasn't far from Green Waves.

Jack and Katherine used to take a stroll in Green Waves after dinner by the riverside.

Drunken, he instinctively walked to his former house.

"We can't go back anymore," Jack shook his head before turning around.

"Mr. Hughes!"

Her voice stopped Jack, "You really live here?"

Jack frowned. His face turned cold.

'She didn't learn her lesson?'

He turned around and saw Shirley standing below the streetlight not far from him.

She's looking at him in surprise.

In a white dress, she was curling up because of the cold wind.

"What do you mean?" Jack asked coldly.

Shirley walked up to him quickly. She was stretching out her body as if she's trying to show Jack her best look.

"Stop!" Jack shouted coldly.

"What's wrong?" Shirley was shocked.

"Keep your pet away!" Jack turned away and stopped looking at Shirley.

Shirley instinctively looked below her and got confused, "I, I didn't bring any pet."

Jack rubbed his aching head and said, "The rabbits, your tits."

Shirley trembled with a blushed pretty face, "Mr. Hughes, you're so naughty."

She looked so flirtatious while swinging her waist shyly.

Jack couldn't bear it any longer. He turned around and walked away.

Shirley suddenly took a step closer and pulled his wrist as she sweetly said, "I... just wanted to let you see."

"I'm not interested in you." Jack tried to shake Shirley's hand off.

But Shirley suddenly grabbed his hand tightly.

She begged with glistening eyes, "Please don't go... I, I came for you tonight."

Jack sneered, "Tommy is so stupid for telling you my address. Did he think that his life was good enough, so he's just in a daze when his girlfriend betrayed him?" Only a few people, including the Parry family, knew the address of the rented house.

Shirley could easily use Tommy by just a few sentences.

Well, Shirley might be a Saint in the Parry family... But he clearly knew that Shirley's just a plain bitch.

He's not someone with no options and of course not dumb.

Shirley stiffened. She never thought that Jack would be so blunt without any feelings left for her.

But when she thought of Jack's resources... Even if Jack rented and lived in a house that looked slightly old, that one billion card must be right.

Tommy was merely her just-in-case.

But Jack was clearly better than Tommy!

Because she had once given up her dignity for Jack... That night she mustered up the courage to find Jack as her last effort.

Even though, she already knew that Jack was Tommy's ex-brother-in-law.

Whispers came out of her red lips.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears.

Shirley elaborated her miseries by crying while saying, "I, I might get engaged with Tommy soon. So I really wanted to see you tonight..."

Jack flung Shirley's hand, turned around and walked away.

"Okay, I understand. I'll give you a red envelop."000
