Female Novel
Chapter 367 Keep An Appointment
After checking into the Hotel, Yael excused himself and left. Jack didn’t mind and smiled in reply. Yael’s
intentions were abundantly clear. Except that Yael always denied and there was no need for Jack to
expose him.
After he placed his suitcase in the room, Mr. Ward and Brent also rushed over.
Mr. Ward laughed when he found out that Yael had left, “Yael kept saying that he doesn’t want but his
body was more truthful.”
Jack and Brent looked at Mr. Ward.
“Mr. Ward, what are you talking?” Brent asked doubtfully.
Mr. Ward blushed when he reacted to Brent and then changed the subject, “Master Hughes, what do
you intend to do during the movie industry conference tonight?”
Jack was noncommittal, smiled, and said, “The thunder and rain are given to all with grace. Let’s see
how the Burton family chooses.”
“Due to the Burton family’s assassination order, the prize money of a billion USD was embezzled by the
Assassin Squad. Without this money to facilitate cash flow, the already declining Burton family was just
hastening its downfall.”
Mr. Ward shook his head and sighed, “Even if they don’t provoke you, they would be quickly devoured
by the Capital’s tycoons. Now their actions are like a cornered beast. They want to take a bite at you
before they die.”
“Apart from Old Master Burton, the rest of them are truly fools,” Jack said sharply without mincing his
words.
…
At that moment at the Burton family ancient castle.
The Burton ancient castle had lost the magnificence of the earlier days. The moment they kidnapped
Sophie and after they were bombed by Jack and Patrick was the turning point of the Burton family.
From then on, the Burton family seemed to be on a decline like an avalanche. The assassination order
then became the straw that broke the starving camel’s back.
The entire Burton Ancient Castle seemed to reek of death. There no longer were visiting guests. The
tycoons of the capital know that the Burton family’s days were numbered. Perhaps those former guests
had secretly sharpened their swords.
Thunder clapped and lightning flashed as it started to rain heavily. The skies and the earth became
intertwined.
Dyson sat next to the panel window looking at the heavy rain outside.
“It is raining heavily.” Dyson suddenly muttered with a clearly fatigued voice, “The Capital is good for
everything except that the weather changes too quickly. It could be sunny one moment and downpour
the next.”
Knock knock knock! Someone knocked on the door.
“Enter!” Dyson was tired but he remained cold and sinister.
The door opened and a middle-aged man entered.
He looked at Dyson and asked, “Sir, do you really want to go?”
“Would you be satisfied if you don’t seek this revenge?” Dyson coldly asked, “Dad just died. Do you
wish that he died with no justice?”
“But our family is already…” The middle-aged man was devastated.
Dyson slowly stood up and scoffed, “Exactly for this reason we have nothing to lose. Have you
prepared the men that I asked for?”
The middle-aged man looked at Dyson with horror. Dyson’s transformation had been huge in just a few
days. Ever since that day when he raged furiously, vomited blood, and fainted, he was a changed man
when he regained his consciousness.
He was crazy and violent. He would be unpredictable and raged violently, causing everyone to be on
edge.
“They’ve been arranged.” The middle-aged man nodded, “But would this be escalating the matter till it
became too big?”
“Big?” Dyson shrugged, “I’m only worried that it is not big enough. It may be a small conference
organized by the Vaughn and Wattson families but it can be considered the peak of the industry. The
Vaughn and Wattson naturally knew our purpose for going. So they would definitely request his
presence.
“That will be the best opportunity for us to seek revenge for our father!”
The middle-aged man’s expression darkened, clenched his teeth, and said, “But what you’re doing now
is not to allow the Burton family to die in peace but for the family to dive towards hell. We must revenge
for our father but if we were to do this at the conference, then our Burton family will never be able to
make a comeback.”
The private revenge was being thrust into the public. The consequences of doing that were
unimaginable to the middle-aged man.
Bang!
Dyson kicked over the chair beside him and yelled, “Do not be a hindrance! Tonight I must let Jack die
at the conference. He will have to accompany father in the netherworld!”
Kaboom!
Lightning flashed and thunder roared behind him as if it tore through the sky. The lighting and thunder
added to Dyson’s frightening appearance. The middle-aged man gasped in fear. He clenched his teeth,
acknowledged, and left.
Dyson looked outside the window again. His eyes were bloodshot, clenched his teeth as he said, “Even
in death, I will drag Jack down with me. Father, you begged Jack when you were alive, now the person
who killed you was actually him! Instead, the person who you called a failure is seeking revenge for
you!”
Dyson laughed as he said. His laughter was sinister and became louder as it echoed in the bedroom.
Night fell and not only the rain showed no signs of easing but it also became heavier. The raging
thunderstorm caused the Capital to lose much of its drive and life.
People ran to dodge the thunderstorm in the Capital. Even the cars on the road sped up.
In the Rolls Royce.
Jack looked outside quietly and was expressionless. Brent sat at the front passenger seat while Mr.
Ward sat next to Jack.
“Master Hughes, we would be late for the event.” Mr. Ward said.
“Ciara askes me to bolster the event but didn’t tell me to be early,” Jack replied and pursed his lips. He
knew that he should be punctual. When doing business, being punctual was a basic courtesy.
Jack had been waiting for Yael to come together but he called Yael when he noticed that they couldn’t
wait any longer. To his surprise, Yael had already gone to the place together with Vinna.
Would he be late if he had not waited for Yael?
“Yael that chap is really stubborn!” Mr. Ward was clear why they would be late and started to murmur
and then laughed, “It’s for the better as well. Let that kid help Master Hughes step on some mines.”
Jack simply acknowledged, relaxed, and closed his eyes to rest.
After half an hour.
“Master Hughes, we’ve arrived!” Mr. Ward woke Jack.
“Let’s go.” Jack raised to get out of the car.
He looked up at the hotel in front of them.
On the rainy night, the towering building was ablaze with lights. It looked magnificent. There was a red
carpet at the entrance leading to the hotel. A five star hotel like this would not be short of guests in the
Capital. But there were only a few cars in the carpark.
“Master Hughes, this is one of the Vaughn family businesses. They had ensured that the hotel is
entirely reserved for tonight’s event.” Mr. Ward said.
Jack understood and then walked into the hotel. Brent followed closely behind as he held the umbrella
to shelter Jack from the rain. Mr. Ward held his own umbrella and walked beside Jack.
They walked slowly in the rain.novelbin
Jack’s expression darkened and said, “Burton’s… I really hope that you won’t be too foolish.”
