Winner Takes All

In that evening.

A shocking news was released on the local television.

"DT Real Estate Agency will be preselling the units in West Shantytown on 15th of this month."

The news was like a bomb that bombed the city once again.

The whole city was shocked, people felt moved.

It was earlier on when the YK Group announced the partnership which caused the housing prices in West Shantytown to increase against the market.

Many people were upset as they did not rush to buy the houses in the city when they could.

However, when the new listings were listed this time, those who were upset started to be excited again.

If anyone who were able to purchase any housing in West Shantytown with the following of YK Group's partnership, the price would bound to increase.

After all these years, the housing price of many places were increased whenever the YK Group had something to do with it.

Slowly, the discussion of buying rooms started to gather around the people in the city.

Jack Hughes was leaning on the sofa while watching the news on the television.

He smiled confidently.

This trend had been coagulated for more than a month. He was waiting for the breaking news on the 15th!

At this time, the phone rang.

Looking at the name of the caller, Jack smiled gently.

"Hello, Amber."

"Congratulations, Mr. Hughes. I saw the news about the pre-sales of the housing in West Shantytown."

Jack smiled. "Amber, can you take leave tomorrow?"

He knew that Amber Knight needed to work after returning home. Many things happened this few day, he did not even know where she worked.

"Definitely! My boyfriend's company pre-sales go viral, he will get a decent amount of commission from the boss. You must treat me for dinner!" Amber sounded very happy in the phone. "Oh yes, you said you will give me a surprise on the 15th, isn't it about the bonus?"

This woman, hadn't she noticed yet?

But fortunately, the surprise on the 15th will be more shocking and exciting!

Jack laughed a little. "I guess so."

"Hehe... I want to go to Genting restaurant, on that day I will give you a surprise as well." Amber smiled mysteriously.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Surprise?

Jack felt startled for a moment.

About Genting restaurant, he did not bother to care about it.

It was a private high-end restaurant located on the top floor of the tallest building in the city. You could overlook the whole city. If you were lucky enough to encounter the condensation of the fog, you might feel like above the sea of clouds.

That was how the restaurant got its name.

It was heard that the lowest spending amount was 6 digits or more.

This had resulted to very small number of people to spend in the restaurant.

Back then Jack did not spend that much even when his annual salary was about million dollars.

Even now he was not bothered about it.

"Sure." Jack smiled as he replied.

Amber was so excited in the phone. "Ahh, what am I going to wear on that day, definitely have to make up. I should not embarrass my boyfriend since we are going to such a high-end restaurant." Jack smiled again. Amber was gorgeous even she was in her simple and casual outfit. Perhaps it was the aura that she used to develop since young, sometimes she could overwhelm some celebrities. Well, had Amber never been to Genting restaurant before?

He knew when Amber said that, it was her trying to act cute in front of him.

Jack was going to flatter her back.

Amber's voice suddenly rang on the phone. "Some more, it's such a solemn thing to make money from the tycoons. If I don't dress well, I will feel embarrassed."

Jack suddenly couldn't smile.

Was I afraid to have this girlfriend?

Jack hung up the phone after casually talking with Amber.

On the other side when Amber hung up the phone, she was excited and looked forward on the 15th.

She smiled evilly. "Dumbass, perhaps he still doesn't know that I'm the boss of EnRich? I will wait until 15th to tell him, perhaps he would be surprised?"

While she was whispering with herself, she could not help but thinking of Jack's surprised look which made her smile on her face even sweeter.

The Parry's Family.

At this moment, it felt like the air was freezing.

The air was suffocating for everyone.

Katherine Parry's family of four were sitting on the sofa while watching the television with different expression on their faces.

Kieran Parry and Elissa Tanner were being livid. Elissa was even holding her fist while biting her teeth as if she wanted to devour someone.

While Tommy Parry was filled with anger while staring at the television.

While Katherine was sitting on the sofa with her head down while she was crying.

"Sis, why didn't you persuade us with few more words?"

Tommy broke the silence in the living with his crying voice as he started begging Elissa. "Mum... do you still want me and Shirley to get married?"

Just a sentence, Elissa was completely blown up.

She angrily replied. "Katherine, do you still have this family in your heart? We could have bought 4 housing units if you did persuade your father and I a little more. Perhaps, Tommy and Shirley could have married already! It's your fault, your fault!"

Her speech was awful and hurting.

Katherine looked at Elissa in confusion.

When she just watched the news, she already knew that something like this would happen.

But she really could not accept the fact that after so many days, her family was still blaming her for not able to purchase the housing units.

"Mum... why do you blame? Am I not doing enough for this family?"

Katherine couldn't help crying as she started begging. "I beg you all to let me go. I have done my very best to this family. I have married with Jack for the past 3 years. I have taken so much money to help the family and even Tommy for countless times. Are these not enough?"

"Oh please!"

Elissa replied viciously. "Well, you are the older sister. It's your duty to take some money to help family and you feel proud about it? You can't even help your brother to get married, what are you trying to argue with me?"

Katherine felt completely hopeless as she lowered her head and cried.

"Cry, you only know how to cry! What a shame, if you have listened to our advice and get married with rich man then perhaps, we wouldn't end up like this? But you just want to marry with the asshole Jack!"

Elissa did not hesitate to blame as she did not care about how Katherine felt at all.

While Tommy was full of grievance, he instantly felt angry when he heard the word 'Jack'.

He blurted out. "Dad, Mum! Jack is rich! I met his mother at LJ Hospital before. The nurse told me that her mother had a liver transplant recently and she is getting better recently. When my sister took the two hundred thousand Yuan back home, it was Jack's final two hundred thousand Yuan"

"What?"

Kieran and Elissa's expression instantly changed.

Elissa asked in disbelief. "Tommy, what are you talking about, how could that useless have so much money?"

Tommy replied. "It's true! Do you think that I would lie to you? We are being cheated! My sister was set up by him. He has planned for all this, he used the two hundred thousand Yuan to divorce her." After they heard what he just said.

Kieran and Elissa instantly filled with anger on their faces.

Elissa felt more upset as if she was struck by lightning. She was stunned on the sofa beating her chest while crying out loud. "Oh... God, why is that useless so vicious? Did our family dig his ancestor's grave?" "Katherine, I don't care what method you are going to use. You need to go back to Jack to get back that few hundred thousand Yuan. Or else, I will die right in front of you!"
