Winner Takes All

"Just take it as putting an end to the past once and for all."

Amber smiled bitterly.

She wanted to be mean but Katherine's cries and the words she said made her wanted to put an end to everything.

She was done allowing Katherine to interrupt her life with Jack.

Katherine Parry was a thorn.

A thorn that bothered her and Jack.

She didn't mind about their three years marriage but everything she'd done to Jack.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

She wanted to push this person out of their life with one meeting.

Amber thought it was worthwhile.

Otherwise, she could chase Katherine away today, but she might reappear sometimes someday in the future.

Entrance of TM Villa District.

Inside a Maserati Quattroporte.

Jenny sat on the driver seat looking astonishedly at Katherine with a flood of tears gushed down her cheeks.

She asked with her blinking blue eyes, "Kate, aren't Jack and you are friends? That tone just now..." Katherine did not behave like they were friends just now.

And she was sure that it was a female's voice that she heard from the other side of the phone.

"It's alright, let's go in."

Katherine wiped away her tears at the corners of her eyes and smiled forcefully, "I can't meet Jack directly, I need to meet his wife before if I want to see him."

"Huh?"

Jenny was puzzled, but she started the car anyway.

TM Villa's gate opened when the light is on.

Jenny was delighted with this function.

She drove the car into the villa slowly.

Katherine's crying and begging image flashed back in her mind.

She asked regardless, "Are you truly a friend of Jack Hughes?" "Spouse!" Katherine said.

Boom!

Jenny felt she was struck by lightning, "But, but the woman you called is Jack's wife."

"She was my best friend during university."

Katherine sobbed and took a deep breath, she forced a smile and looked at Jenny, "You get it now?" Jenny was stunned.

Spouse, best friend, spouse.

It was complicated but easily understandable.

Did Katherine mean that woman stole her husband and Jack married her best friend?

Darn it!

Jack Hughes, a cold-blooded disabled bastard.

Jenny became furious thinking all these, Jack's reputation was destroyed in her heart.

What did grandma see in such a bastard?

Felling Katherine's sorrow, Jenny comforted, "Just calm down and let go of the past, if you want, I can avenge you later, okay?"

To Jenny, Katherine did a huge favour by bringing her to Jack, she was a true friend.

Jenny became annoyed whenever she thought of what happened at the bar.

Jack Hughes that bastard, abandoned his wife, letting her worked as a bar lady and was almost molested.

He needed to be taught a lesson!

"It's fine, those are all history, you saved me and I arranged a meeting between you and Jack. You're the main focus today, I'm not important."

Katherine smiled forcefully.

Her smile gave Jenny heartache.

But since Katherine said so, she suppressed her anger and continued driving.

However, when Jenny turned away to drive, she missed the moment where Katherine's sorrowful and pitiful expression transformed into an evil smiled. Katherine's right hand even grabbed the purse discreetly. The Maserati Quattroporte was driven into the villa.

Both of them saw Daisy Hill standing at the front door soon as they got down the car.

Daisy frowned, "There's a tag along?"

"She's a friend, here to accompany me."

Katherine's eyes were still teary and red.

"Why? Am I not welcome?" Jenny raised her neck and stared at Daisy.

For her, it was extremely not fair that Katherine had to beg for a meeting after being treated unfairly. Unlike Katherine, she won't bow down to evil power and wouldn't let Katherine being bullied again.

Why should the right one kneel for the wrong ones?

However, Daisy replied coldly, "Not welcome indeed."

"You..."

Jenny got furious, her face turned red at once.

It was Katherine that stopped her by giving her a pull on the arm.

When both of them raised their heads again, Daisy was walking towards the villa while she said coldly.

"Mrs Hughes was kind enough to meet you, say what you want and leave. She is pregnant and you're not welcome here by anyone." Cold-hearted, ruthless.

Jenny became even more furious, "What's with this family? Where does all the arrogance come from?"

"That's enough."

Katherine comforted, "It seems like Jack is not home. We'll stay a bit longer in there and you can meet him when he's home."

"I don't feel like meeting him anymore, I want to go home."

Jenny said angrily. She wanted to meet Jack because she and grandma travelled here specifically just to meet him last time.

And grandma kept something secret about her intention last time, not telling her.

Out of curiosity, she wanted to know the person Jack that her grandmother willing to travelled far to meet.

But now...

Disappointed!

Completely disappointed!

"We are already here, let's meet him if it's possible."

Katherine said sadly, "And I've mentioned just now during the phone conversation that I would like to apologise to my best friend and have a little chat."

"Alright then." Jenny nodded helplessly.

They walked into the villa while chatting.

Amber was sitting on the sofa.

Mr Ward sat on the side holding a cup of tea with one hand and closed up a book with another. He looked at Katherine and Jenny coldly. Meanwhile, Daisy came out from the kitchen with tea serving.

"Have a seat." Daisy said coldly.

Jenny frowned with dissatisfaction.

While Katherine as usual, showing a guilty face. She looked at Amber and walked towards the living room with Jenny by her side.

"Long time no see, Amber."

Katherine's voice was low and sounded regretful. She looked at Amber with tearful eyes and a forceful smile.

"Yeah, what do you want to speak about?"

Amber was calm, this meeting was not about reunification but cutting off ties. There was never a union or whatsoever. There was only hatred!

Katherine smiled.

She raised opened her purse suddenly and reach inside.

Her action made Mr Ward frowned at once and became alert.

Daisy even went closer next to Amber discreetly.

"This family, are they all mental?"

Jenny said inwardly, realising what happened.

Next.

Katherine took out a red box from her purse, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Amber with a smile.

"This is a gift I, as the godmother prepared for the baby, a long-lived locket, wishing the child eternal health and happiness."

Amber's face softened seeing the locket.

It was a mother's nature to love their children.

Mr Ward and Daisy exchanged a glance, they were puzzled.

Katherine then asked Daisy, "Ms Hill, could you fetch me a bottle of alcohol please?"

"What?"

Daisy stunned.

Katherine smiled, "I want to have a drink with Amber, but since she's pregnant, she shall drink tea."

She turned to Amber while speaking, "Let's forget the past and look forward to the future, you are his life from now on."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
