Female Novel
Chapter 751 Divide And Conquer
Morrison was unsettled and his heart weighed heavily. He waved his hand to let his servants leave. He
specially instructed his servant to inform him immediately when Sampson arrived. He was clear that as
soon as Sampson were to come to the Quinn residence, he would visit Jack and Amelia first.
The Quinn family of today was not the same as in the past. Morrison felt as if time stood still.
Morrison kept looking in the direction of Truman and Cissie’s room. Perhaps these two did not know
what was going to happen and were still enjoying each other’s company in the room.
Morrison pursed his lips, grinned, and smiled bitterly.
After ten minutes, footsteps could be heard coming from the courtyard. The steady and firm footsteps
were like a sledgehammer pounding on his chest. He hurried to his feet and saw Jack, Jim, Amelia,
and Sampson walking in. Sampson was severely obese but his well-tailored suit effectively covered his
bulge.
But now, Sampson no longer looked like a dignified head of the wealthiest family of Sunam. He
perspired profusely as he looked flustered and worried as he followed closely behind Jack.novelbin
“Mr. Russell.” Morrison greeted politely and respectfully. When Old Master Quinn was alive and when
the Quinn family was at its former glory, he had some interactions with the Russell family. It seemed
like the rich and powerful had a large social circle but in reality, the higher up the social class a person
was, the smaller the circle he would have.
“Mr. Quinn, I’m sorry to bother you.” Sampson appeared surprised when he saw Morrison but he
quickly composed himself and said, “I’m so sorry that my ill-bred son had caused so much trouble at
the Quinn residence. I’m grateful for Mr. Quinn’s graciousness in the handling of this issue.”
“You’re too kind, Mr. Russell.” Morrison smiled awkwardly as he glanced at Jack. Morrison heaved a
sigh of relief in his mind when he noticed that Jack’s expression did not seem any different. The then
quickly said respectfully, “Mr. Hughes, I’ll take my leave if there isn’t anything else.”
“Stop right there!” Jack said calmly.
Morrison’s eye twitched and throbbed but he controlled himself and slowly turned around.
What Jack said the next moment shocked Morrison and he was unable to maintain his composure.
Jack did not look at Morrison but glared towards Truman and Cissie’s room as he said, “You are
responsible to resolve this issue.”
What Jack said put Morrison into a panic. Even Sampson’s pupil constricted and his expression
changed.
“Mr. Hughes, it is not appropriate for me to handle this. Now Amelia is the head of the family and she
should be the one who handles this.” Morrison’s forehead started to sweat. He endeavored to keep his
head down so that the others would not notice his fearful expression.
He knew that he could not get out of it since Jack had already decided. It felt as though a huge hand
had slapped him senseless.
He was not a fool. After the incident happened with Truman and Cissie, he obediently watched over
them in the hope that he would be able to ease Jack’s rage towards him. He was mentally prepared for
punishment and it was only an issue of its severity.
But now Jack wanted him to resolve this matter and that placed him in a very difficult spot.
After the Quinn family’s collapse, all of the Quinn family members had high hopes for him. All of them
hated Jack and had been hoping for the Quinn family to stage a comeback. In other words, if the Quinn
family was to rise again, then Morrison would be the popular choice to become the head of the family.
Even if he were to handle this matter on behalf of Jack and Amelia, he would upset all of the Quinn
family. This matter was more complicated than it seemed. Jack was trying to create a situation when
the rest of the Quinn family would rebel against Morrison. Jack was literally trying to uproot him from
the Quinn family.
“Uncle Morrison, this is a name list that we prepared.” Amelia placed the list in front of Morrison.
Morrison looked at the densely written list and suddenly felt dizzy and his heart crushed. When he
noticed all the familiar names, he felt like a huge hand was strangling him. He now felt that a person’s
fate seemed as mundane as a nod of the head.
If he really handled this matter, he would be doing that in full view of all of the Quinns. In the list, not
only were there his fellow peers, there were the former power holders and even Cissie’s parents and
relatives…
Splat…
A drop of sweat fell onto the name list. It was dead silent in the courtyard.
Sampson was in no hurry to say anything. As the top family of a region, he was the elite of the elites.
How could he not figure it out when he looked at Morrison’s expression and the list?
Now his gaze turned towards Jack. Sampson kept his silence as he pondered if Jack was trying to
dismantle the family and wreck the Quinn family. How could a young man like Jack plot so sinisterly?
How could the rest of the Hughes potential heirs compare to Jack?
Then, Jack rubbed his nose and said, “This is a death list!”
Kaboom!
His calm voice seemed thunderous to Morrison.
Sampson’s expression changed drastically and he could no longer maintain his composure. Even his
back was drenched in cold sweat.
Morrison shuddered and then sat down on the ground. He looked desperate and hopeless. Morrison
had the feeling that the sky had fallen.
Death list? Did he have to ensure that all in the list were eliminated? Did Jack want him to become the
most hated sinner of the Quinn family? That meant severing his ties with the Quinn family.
“Mr. Hughes, I… I…” The terrified Morrison mustered all his strength to speak up. He sweated
profusely and could feel the saltiness in the sweat as he licked the corner of his lips.
Before he could finish his sentence, Jack signaled for Jim to turn the wheelchair. Even when Jack was
in the wheelchair, he continued to radiate his prowess.
“As the leading member of the Quinn family, you could not escape being responsible for such a huge
incident that happened in the residence.”
“It’s true that Yael is in a vegetative state but Amelia is still around. If you think that you can bully a
woman, then I, as her brother, will show you how a person bleeds!”
“If you handle his matter today, you may one day regain wealth and power. Even if you don’t have full
authority, I will still guarantee you will have a better condition than what you are in now. But if you
choose not to handle this matter…” Jack paused when he came to this.
It was as if Jack brought down the temperature of that place. Everyone felt chills running down their
spines and their skin crawled.
Jack slowly said, “Take this pen and include your name in this list. Choose for yourself whether you
want to live or die!”
Sampson and Morrison were shocked as if both of them were struck by lightning.
