Chapter 691 To Pay a Visit

Now that it was autumn, dawn came much later.

Jack had awoken early while it was still dim outside.

He strictly controlled his daily routine and never allowed himself to slack off in the slightest.

Since he was still pretending to be disabled, he couldn’t go outside to train.

The only thing he could do instead was to stay at home on his wheelchair and train his upper body

strength.

Until now the mess had turned worse and worse.

This sometimes made him feel very oppressed, but the harder he worked then the greater chance he

would have, to overcome any of the crises in the future.

This was because success was not a result you could get overnight, instead success was always

achieved through putting in as much effort as was possible.

When Amber finally woke up, Jack had finished his training.

She could clearly see from his bare upper body that his defined muscles that were all in perfect

proportion. Although his physique was still not that of a bodybuilder, you could still really see the

muscles and strength he had acquired from his training.

“Jack, you woke up early again to do your exercises?” Amber walked over to Jack with her sleepy eyes

and hugged Jack’s neck from behind, and then added, “You really never allow yourself to slack off, do

you?”

Jack smiled, looked down at his body and muttered, “The speed that my body is developing at is

almost terrifying.”

He whispered softly.

However there were still feelings of doubt within him.

After the events that occurred over the other side of the ocean he had still continued to pretend he was

disabled. However, ever since he had returned, more incidents had been occurring one after the other,

so technically speaking, he did have to slack off his training here and there.

In addition to this, he was only able to train his upper body strength, so to be more precise his overall

physique was still not up to standards.

However with just this short period of training, it not only increased the strength due to his slack off of

training but also it seemed that he even made a breakthrough.

“Is something wrong?”

Amber asked suspiciously.

Jack shook his head and said, “Everything’s fine, but despite how strong I’ve become currently, I’ll still

always doubt if it’s enough.”

As the head trainer of the Hughes family, Brent’s systematic training was not only aimed at Jack, but

was also to teach and train the younger generations of the Hughes family.

If only because of that Brent’s systematic training was so special, the younger generations of the

Hughes family would be all benefited.

However, Jack was still sure that even if the younger generation members didn’t slack off, they were

still inferior to him both physically and in terms of their fighting skills.

This was because Jack had a natural gift unlike them.

What’s more, was that when he was attacked at the other side of the ocean, even though he had

poison flowing through his whole body he was still able to recover fully, which in itself was a very

remarkable thing.

Regardless whether the toxicity levels were strong or weak, since the purpose of this poison was for

murder; it could have been very fatal.

But in comparison to Jack, Yael who had also been poisoned needed countless people to come and

donate blood and numerous Head Doctors had to come over and try all they could to ensure he didn’t

die. And despite all of this help, he was still in a vegetative state.

In addition to this, even though Grand Freemason had needed to gather Head Doctors to help Jack,

the scene had never been as grand as Yael’s.

In any case, the final result had turned out very differently for both of them.

After a long period of silence.

Jack didn’t wait for Amber to speak.

Jack couldn’t help but look back, only to find that Amber had her arms around his neck and her

eyebrows frowned, seemingly in a daze.

“What’s wrong?” Jack asked gently.

“It twitched again.”

Amber pointed to her right eyelid rather irritated and said, “What the hell is going on?’”

Jack frowned slightly, stroked her head lightly and said calmly, “Don’t overthink too much, perhaps you

are just being a bit too over anxious and therefore making this out to be a bigger problem than it is. Just

don’t put too much pressure on yourself, relax a bit and it will all be ok.”

“Hm.”

Amber nodded, but she still had a frown on her face.

Jack felt helpless as he watched Amber go to wash herself.

Was she only over worrying so much because the due date for her pregnancy was approaching?

A thought then came into Jack’s mind.

They had been experienced too many different incidents recently. And perhaps because so many

people in the family had also suffered accidents recently and the people who were left unharmed had

suffered a lot of pressure.

This worry she was left with coupled with the pregnancy, could very well be likely to have caused the

state that Amber was in currently.

Jack then said to himself, “I need to work overtime today since I need to finish all the arrangements for

tomorrow. This way I can stay at home tomorrow and spend a whole day resting with Amber.”

Once Jack had made up his mind about this, he then went to the bathroom to wash up himself with

Amber.

After having breakfast together, Mr. Ward and Jack both rushed over to the DT real estate agency,

while Daisy stayed at home with Amber.

According to the previous plan, Daisy was meant to go to the hospital with Vinna after breakfast to

deliver breakfast to Lyndall and Lone Wolf. However, because of Jack’s request, Daisy stayed at home

instead to accompany the troubled Amber.

Vinna’s condition was a lot better now, so she could now go alone to the hospital to look over Yael.

In the garden.

Amber was sitting on the swing, gently swaying and bathing in the sun, while at the same time she

looked down at her stomach, still frowning and worried.

She didn’t know why, but from the moment her right eyelid had twitched, she had been constantly

worrying that something was going to happen.

Her right eyelid continued to twitch, and each time it did made Amber grow even more worried.

After having watered the flowers, Daisy then walked over to Amber and sat down on the swing next to

her.

When she saw the frown on Amber’s face, Daisy then asked, “Are you still worrying about why your

right eyelid is twitching?”

“Yes…”

Amber nodded but as if she knew what Daisy was going to say next she then hurriedly added, “It’s not

just about my right eyelid twitching, but my whole body has been restless these past few days. I just

have this feeling that something is going to happen.”

“A woman’s sixth sense.”

Daisy calmly said.

“Yes, that’s it.” Amber nodded and continued, “I don’t know why I feel this way, but the feeling has been

growing stronger and stronger the past two days.”

Daisy looked at Amber deeply and watched the smile on her face slowly faded.

She was a killer, and was also the top assassin on the Dark Net Assassin Squad rankings.

A killer’s intuition was always extremely sensitive.

In addition to this she was also a woman, so was able to emphasize with how Amber was feeling at this

time.

She took a deep breath.

Daisy then hugged Amber for a while and said soothingly, “Don’t worry, I’m still here for you, even if the

sky was to fall one day I would be here to protect you, ok?”

“Daisy…”novelbin

Amber’s body trembled slightly, “Thank you.”

She had told everyone in the family the same thing now; however she had mentioned it to Jack more

than once.

Despite this, the only words she had gotten back from everyone was just words of comfort, but now

that she had gotten someone to acknowledge her feelings, she couldn’t help but feel slightly more

reassured.

It’s not that she was reproaching Jack, since after all these thoughts and feelings she was having were

a bit absurd.

However being in a state of worry all day long, she felt it was a lot more reassuring to hear words of

acknowledgement rather than words of comfort.

For the entire day.

Daisy and Amber were together the whole time.

When Mr. Ward had returned home, he sat down comfortably to read his book and drink some tea.

Everything seemed calm and peaceful.

The sun was beginning to set.

The night was gradually approaching.

When Amber checked the time, it was already seven o’clock in the evening.

She then asked Mr. Ward rather suspiciously, “Mr. Ward, is Jack working overtime tonight?”

“Yes, it seems Master Hughes forgot to mention this to Mrs. Hughes.”

Mr. Ward put down the book in his hand and added, “He is working overtime tonight to finish all of the

arrangements for tomorrow, so that tomorrow he can stay with you at home the whole day.”

“Really?” Amber was overjoyed to hear this.

At this moment, Daisy had just passed by Mr. Ward, and when she saw the book that Mr. Ward was

reading she instantly began to blush.

“Mr. Ward, do you always put a children’s picture book inside another book when you read?”

Mr. Ward then coughed twice and his face turned red.

However, he then received a call from the real estate agency.

Mr. Ward began to frown in confusion when he answered the phone.

“Drive her away!” Mr. Ward gave a short reply, and when he hung up the phone, the gentle smile he

originally had on his face turned to anger.

This sudden scene stunned both Daisy and Amber.

“Mr. Ward, what happened?” Amber asked.

Mr. Ward waved his hand angrily, and didn’t say anything.

Anger grew inside of him.

That bitch who didn’t even know the difference between good and bad, and who dared dig up the

ashes of the Madam, what right did she have to ask to pay a visit?

If Master Hughes didn’t kill her, then why don’t I?
