Chapter 356: 356 A Piece of Good News from Amber

The private aircraft roared and took off from the runway.

Looking down at the manor of the Hughes family,novelbin

Jack whispered, "One year later, I’ll come back and I’ll make you all bow down to me."

This was the first time he had set foot in the Hughes family, and he really felt what humiliation was.

They all called him "bastard", which was like a knife cutting his heart.

Even in the eyes of ordinary slaves, he was just a bastard and everyone could beat him.

Jack was the target for a lot of criticism in the Hughes family. There, only his father helped him.

What’s more, he knew how complicated the factions of the Hughes family were.

In the Meeting hall, although his father dominated the whole situation, it was just his father’s

domineering means, which made the whole thing simple.

In fact, the words and behaviors of those people at that time were a little strange.

For example, people’s thoughts were not united at that time.

When Archer asked for an insult, Carter and Madam Hughes seldom went along with him.

"Young master, is one year really enough?"

Mr. Ward hesitated and asked with fixed feelings.

Jack was very self-confident and arrogant just now, letting everyone calm.

But now when he calmed down, Mr. Ward still felt a little upset.

A year was too short!

Young master needed to become stronger in one year and then defeat all the successors of the

Hughes family.

It might take three or five years and even ten years to succeed. Would Young master really succeed in

one year?

Jack smiled noncommittally.

"Useless people will useless forever. And, I have no choice but to go forward bravely."

Mr. Ward’s eyes twinkled, feeling indignant in his heart.

Brent and Daisy also looked gloomy.

One year was not enough!

Although they were at Jack’s side and they had seen Jack’s change, they didn’t think Jack had any

chance of winning.

The atmosphere became gloomy.

Jack said with a smile, "In your heart, I am so useless?"

"Young master is the most talented person I’ve ever met." Mr. Ward said first.

Brent and Daisy looked at Jack at the same time. Although they didn’t make a sound, they showed a

look of agreement with Mr. Ward.

Jack shrugged and said firmly, "For my wife and my parents, I have to win!"

……

When the plane arrived at the suburban airport, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon.

But instead of going back to Four Impressions Club, Jack took Mr. Ward and the other two people to

his mother’s cemetery.

"Young master, it’s too risky." Mr. Ward was a little worried.

……

Jack could also recall that day when they met Brown. More than a dozen killers had ambushed here

early to make a surprise attack on them.

This time they went to Sophie’s cemetery, but Brown wasn’t there.

"It should be OK."

Jack smiled with his eyes deep.

Then Jack changed the topic, "But now I’m thinking about what good news Amber is going to tell me."

Jack called Amber as soon as he got off the plane. He told Amber he was going to pay homage to his

mother first.

As they chatted, Amber mysteriously said that she would have a piece of good news to tell Jack after

he got home.

In fact, it was rare for Amber to be so mysterious. Even if she pretended to be mysterious, she would

be a bit cute.

Amber’s tone on the phone just now was very serious.

Hearing Jack’s words, Mr. Ward and others also shook their heads doubtfully.

In autumn, the breeze was cool.

Despite the last fierce fight, the environment around Sophie’s cemetery had been restored to its original

state after cleaning.

The lonely tombstone stood in front of the grave.

There was a picture of Sophie on it.

Jack kneeled at the cemetery, silent.

But his eyes were getting red.

After he went to the Hughes family, he knew how complicated the factions were.

Jack’s father did his best to keep Sophie and Jack safe.

The scene in Meeting hall still came to Jack’s mind. Those people dared to shout to kill him in front of

his father. When Patrick was just the successor, those people were more aggressive.

So, after Patrick became the owner of the Hughes family, he never gave his mother the status she

deserved.

It was not that Patrick didn’t want to do that.

But under the tremendous pressure, he couldn’t give Sophie the status!

Jack and his mother lived together for more than twenty years. Jack worked hard for what Mr. Ward

said when Jack first met him. He would let his mother be surrounded with the glory that should have

belonged to her.

"Mom, one year later, I’ll give you back the glory you lost for more than 20 years."

Jack kowtowed slowly and swore, "I will let you go back to the ancestral hall of the Hughes family. I will

let everyone in the Hughes family bow down to you and call you "Mrs. Hughes"!"

With that, Jack stood up, with a determined look, and turned around.

The reason why he came to his mother’s cemetery first was that he should not be able to pay homage

to his mother in the next year.

One year was a short time for him to compete for the position of the head of the Hughes family.

But one year was too long for him if he couldn’t pay homage to his mother.

He was unfilial if he didn’t pay homage to his mother.

……

As Jack expected, it was peaceful after they got off the plane, paid homage to his mother and return to

Four Impressions Club.

It seemed that the tense situation had quietly become peaceful.

But he had to be careful.

Jack didn’t let the security guards in Bamboo Grove leave.

After all, caution was the parent of safety.

Although the situation was changing for the better, it might go wrong and get worse.

It was quiet in the evening.

In Bamboo Grove, it was quiet.

Jack and Amber were lying on the bed. The light in the room was dim. The TV was still on, which made

the quiet room not so cold.

"Why don’t you talk?" Amber curled up in the bed and looked at Jack curiously, with half of her face

covered by the quilt.

"I’ve already taken a bath."

Jack said that all of a sudden.

Amber was stunned, "You have taken a bath, and then?"

Jack looked sad and pretended to complain, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder. You don’t want to

do anything to me now. I don’t deserve it!"

"Oh, you bad guy." Amber’s body trembled and her face turned red.

"Honey, I want you."

Jack turned to look at Amber.

They looked at each other with deep affection.

The dim light suddenly became charming.

The air seemed to be filled with love.

Next second,

Jack leant over Amber.

However,

Amber suddenly raised her hand and touched Jack’s lips with her long fingers. She said shyly, "You

bad guy. I haven’t agreed yet."

"We’ve been apart for a long time. Don’t you miss me? Oh, dear! I’m tired with being your husband."

Jack sighed.

Amber was stunned and she withdrew her hand.

Then, with red lips, Amber gently kissed Jack, like a dragonfly skimming water.

The fragrance of Amber made Jack’s heart beat faster.

But Amber’s attitude made Jack confused, "And then?"

"Do you forget that I said on the phone that I wanted to tell you a piece of good news?" Amber blushed

and her eyes were bright. She looked shy and charming.

Amber opened her red lips gently and her words let Jack became very excited.

"Honey, we have little Jack."
