Female Novel
Chapter 754 Bloodsuckers Won’t Mind Whose Blood It Is
After the cleansing, the Quinn family would fracture internally. Only then would there be a short-term
peace. It would also be much easier for Amelia to control them. Truman and Cissie’s rebellion enabled
Jack to see the dangers lurking within the Quinn family but it also gave Jack a chance to administer the
bitter pill.
The Quinn family members bore a grudge and were united in the shadows. They were a bunch of
blood-thirsty wolves and ready to rebel. Jack knew this the day he took over the family. Otherwise, he
would not make Yael stay in the family to control them.
But now with these actions, the wolves would lose their footing and start to fight among themselves.
The chance of a rebellion would reduce considerably and hence Jack’s concerns would likewise be
reduced significantly.
In the gloomy autumn breeze, the courtyard seemed to be cut off from the outside world. The stench of
blood filled the air. Jack and the others behaved normally. They chatted leisurely as they enjoyed
freshly brewed tea for about an hour.
Then, someone began to knock on the courtyard doors. Jack placed his teacup down and looked at
Jim who went to open the door. Morrison entered when the door was opened. He stumbled and
staggered in. His face was pale and his eyes seemed to be in a daze. His face and clothes were
stained with blood. There was a long knife in his right hand and he dragged the blade along the ground
which left a trail of blood.
Clink clank…
Morrison dropped the long knife as he approached Jack. The sound of the knife falling onto the ground
made Morrison shudder and his dazed eyes refocused. It was as if a cold robot had gained its soul.
The pale, stiff, and lifeless face regained its warmth. His eyes also lit up.
Morrison’s lips quivered as he said, “Mr. Hughes, the family punishment had been meted out.”
“You’ve done well.” Jack calmly praised and then said, “From today onwards, you will have to give your
support to Amelia.”
His tone was calm without any trace of emotions but there was frosty oppression. Cruel people must be
treated cruelly.
The Quinn family were now reaping the poison fruits that they had sowed. Jack did not need to pity
Morrison due to his show of emotions.
Jack then said to Amelia, “Amelia, Yael is still in the hospital. You had difficulty in controlling the Quinn
family. But now you have your Uncle Morrison to help you. Anything that you can’t handle your Uncle
Morrison will be able to resolve for you.”
“Thanks, Jack.” Amelia thanked Jack gratefully and did not bother with Morrison. She knew clearly that
it was Jack who came specially to help her establish her dominance. Although Morrison had meted out
the punishment, it also established Amelia as the head of the family. The discontent that arose from
this event would be partially be borne by Morrison.
Killing two birds with a stone! After Morrison heard what Jack said, he braced up and shuddered.
Jack’s words were to the point and pierced his heart. After today, the limbo Quinn family would cease
to exist. They would now be directly under Jack and he was one of Jack’s executors.
Suddenly, Morrison felt remorseful and was gripped with a complex mix of emotions. He felt as if every
inch of his skin was on fire and cut by a knife. The pain was insufferable.
“Go now, Amelia will shower you with power and wealth.” Jack waved his hand and said coldly.
“Many thanks, Mr. Hughes.” Morrison suppressed the intense pain that he felt within and slowly turned
to leave.
After he turned away from Jack, the tears in his eyes finally started to flow. He continued to smell the
blood that a Quinn just bled. Morrison ground his teeth and his eyes remained determined as he
walked out. His eyes were swollen from the crying and but as soon as he stepped out, he started to
grin sinisterly.
Inside the courtyard.
On seeing Morrison leave, Jim who had held his tongue finally said, “Will Morrison really help Amelia?
A person who can flip sides is truly terrifying.”
Amelia frowned and was obviously deep in thoughts. Jack on the other hand simply rubbed his nose,
smiled, and said, “Break a person’s backbone and he will never stand again. But when you break a
person’s ambitious desires and then ensure that he has no more supporters and at the same time
cause everyone to hate him, he will definitely make the choice that benefits him the most.”
Jim and Amelia exchanged looks as they had their thoughts. Jim had his doubts while Amelia thought
that it was a good move. She then muttered, “This statement may not be suitable for everyone but
when it comes to the Quinn family… it is very suitable.” As she said this, she seemed to become
depressed and frowned painfully.
Amelia took a deep breath, stood up, and excused herself, “Jack, please excuse me. I would like to
return to my room.”
Jack nodded.
Jim turned and asked Jack, “What’s wrong with her?”
Jack replied calmly, “The Zhuge family should know about Amelia’s past, right?”novelbin
Jim nodded.
Jack shrugged and said, “Then put the two together and you will understand this. The Quinn family
exploits and sucks the life out of people. Amelia used to be one of those who were being exploited.”
Jim pondered deeply for several seconds and then said, “I understand now. The Quinn family are
known to be bloodsuckers and they are far more calculative than anyone. If a Quinn enjoyed the
benefits, he would come back for more. That is why Mr. Hughes isn’t afraid that Morrison would rebel.”
“Yes, a bloodsucker would not mind whose blood it is.” Jack nodded and smiled.
Jim replied respectfully, “Thanks Mr. Hughes for the lesson.”
“Okay, the issue here had been resolved and I should return home.” Jack waved his hand, looked at
the sky, and said, “Jim, help me buy an air ticket.”
“What’s the rush?” Jim was startled, grinned, and said, “Why don’t Mr. Hughes stay at the Zhuge
residence tonight? Our Zhuge family managed to rise to this position all thanks to Mr. Hughes and we
had not adequately thanked Mr. Hughes.”
“There is no need.” Jack waved his hand and said, “You should know how much had happened to my
family during this period. Now that things had settled down, I should quickly go back to spend some
time with my wife.”
Jim could not argue with his point and nodded, “Then I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”
After Jim left, Jack wheeled himself to the room. As he entered the room, he saw Amelia sitting on the
chair with her head drooped and her eyes welled up with tears.
Jack felt a lump in his throat. Amelia could never forget what happened that year. If Jack told Amelia
what Yael had said to him, she would have descended to the depths of hopelessness.
“Amelia, I’ve asked Jim to make my arrangements to go home.” Jack broke the silence in the room.
Amelia was startled and hastily raised her head, “You’re leaving so soon?” In her haste, she did not
wipe away her tears.
“Amber is waiting for me at home.” Jack smiled tenderly, “I would like to spend more time with
her.”
