Chapter 390 Shameless

On the way back to Four Impressions Club.

Jack had been very depressed and his face looked so cold.

Lone Wolf squinted at Jack from time to time, but he didn’t say anything.

As a man, he completely understood Jack's mood at that time.

"Tonight, at the Four Impressions Club."

Jack said that to Lone Wolf, breaking the dead silence in the car.

“Okay.” Lone Wolf answered.

Jack said, “Keep this matter a secret, I don't want it to affect Amber.”

By then, Amber was his everything.

Furthermore, Amber was pregnant at that time, so he wanted to hide it from Amber, from beginning to

the end.

It was easy to say "forget the past" but to whoever recalled it, it would be a pain for their heart.novelbin

The sky was getting darker.

After Jack parked his car, he returned to Bamboo Grove.

He was going to sleep on the chair in the central room, but thinking of Amber's words that day, he

tiptoed into the bedroom.

In the room, there was a dim yellow light on the head of the bed.

Amber left that light on for him.

While Amber was curling up at the corner of the bed, wrapped in a quilt.

Jack walked to the side of the bed very carefully, he didn't take his clothes off and just occupying a

small corner of the bed with his clothes on.

When he was about to close his eyes and rest... Suddenly there was a movement from his side.

Jack opened his eyes and saw that Amber was already looking at him with eyes opened.

“You're back?”

Amber smiled and yawned with sleepy eyes.

“Yeah.” Jack simply answered before hugging Amber, “I told you not to wait for me, right? I've moved

so lightly and you still woke up because of that.”

“But I want to sleep in your arms.”

Amber looked up at Jack and winked, “Something is bothering you? You don't look so well.”

“It's nothing, just business.”

Jack answered, the matter that night was considered as an end.

But in face of Amber, he still felt guilty anyway.

Especially, when Amber said that she left the light on for him and wanted to sleep in his arms.

Jack stroked Amber's nose, “I'll try my best to go home earlier from now on and hug you to sleep.”

“Love you, Honey.” Amber closed her eyes, she was really sleepy.

Jack gently smiled and slept while hugging Amber.

A week after that, everything was calm.

DT Company successfully acquired land and started promoting new project under Jack’s control.

Meanwhile at the Quinn family, Yael also continuously received good news, Quinn family's finance

company was just like a giant in the finance world, by relying on that, Yael and Amelia were always

successful in the finance industry.

They were not weak to begin with, at first, Yael made tens of billions of yuan to establish the finance

company as the backbone of Quinn family's industry. Amelia relied on her own abilities and achieved

great results at a young age.

The reason why they were in the Quinn family for a long time was that they were suppressed by the

Quinn family who loved taking advantages.

Now after they left the Quinn family, they easily controlled half of Quinn family's assets, and they had

gotten the condition to use their specialties to the fullest.

Vaughn family and Wattson family of the capital city got good news too.

The entertainment company had already begun to promote the project's progress and made a lot of

profits.

Continuous good news doubled Jack's confidence.

Once his achievements grew bigger and bigger, after a year, at the time for them to decide the

successor of the Hughes family, he believed that his own achievement would make everyone feel

ashamed.

More importantly...

In that one week, Jack confirmed something.

That was... The Hughes family's attitude towards him!

Father went missing and that kept making him feel restless, while he's worried about his Father, he's

also worried that without Father's oppression, those members of the Hughes family who regarded him

as a thorn in their flesh would keep targeting him.

It was still too difficult for him to face the Hughes family at that time.

If Madam Hughes really let the Hughes family target him, it would definitely give him a huge pressure.

A year would be nearly enough to oppress him until he couldn't make any progress.

Luckily, the Hughes family didn’t do so!

Some were happy and some were worried.

When Jack was full of joy and developed.

Some thing happened in LD City.

“Lyndall's girlfriend is a used slut, LD's underground king is unexpectedly a guy who accepts an used

woman!”

Such news was like a bomb for the whole LD City.

Once the news was out, it immediately caused Lyndall to be in a great difficulty.

The former LD's Underground King had become the talk of the town, ridiculed with sarcastic remarks.

Inside LD Manor's villa.

Lyndall looked so glum.

For some time, he had been overwhelmed.

With his personality, he didn't really care about reputation.

Otherwise he wouldn't have withstood the pressure of rumors and he wouldn't have persevered in

inviting Jack after giving the land to Jack.

But he really couldn't bear that!

Both the news that called Katherine as a used slut and the one that called him a guy who would accept

an used woman.

Katherine sat on the side, looking so awful.

The sudden rumor was like a sharp knife that pricked her scars ruthlessly before piercing into the

wound.

It was just that, Katherine lowered her head and was thinking with complicated expression at that time.

Knock, knock!

There were knocks on the door.

Before Lyndall said anything, Willy already walked in.

“Boss, I have investigated it.”

Willy said that while faintly glanced at Katherine.

Katherine lifted her head with a rather panic gaze.

Lyndall gritted his teeth, looking so fierce, “Who did it?”

He sounded so cold and stern.

That made Katherine turn a bit pale.

Willy looked very serious too.

He had been following Lyndall for years so he knew that Lyndall was really angry this time!

Willy gazed at Katherine and said, “It’s sister-in-law’s parents and younger brother."

Once he said that...

Lyndall was dumbfounded.

Katherine's beautiful eye turn red and teary.

“Kate, what happened? You have never mentioned your parents and little brother.”

Seeing Katherine's reaction, Lyndall instantly was sure of Willy's statement.

“I, I...”

Katherine felt like there was a knife piercing through her heart, she felt upset and was dumbfounded.

Lyndall looked so serious.

He got up angrily and grabbed Katherine's shoulders, "I respect you so I didn't want to know too much

about your past. Why would your past slander me?"

He was the Underground King of LD, he had his own unique arrogance.

He could bear some things and let his arrogance down.

But that was so unbearable, he wouldn't need to bear with it anymore!

If he was someone else, he wouldn't treat Katherine so furiously.

But the one who did this at that time were unexpectedly her own parents and younger brother!

How melodramatic would that be?

“LD , don't be angry.”

Katherine looked panic, she hurriedly got up and gently rubbed Lyndall's chest for him as she sobbed,

“I had severed my relations with them, since long time ago, but I never thought... I never thought that

they'd be so...”

“Shameless?”

Lyndall coldly said that.
