Winner Takes All

Slap!

Slap! Slap!

Three consecutive slaps sounded each as loud as the last. Amelia's hand was quick as lightning and instantly delivered the three slaps.

Cissie was stunned and did not even have the time to react before both sides of her face started to swell painfully. The onlookers' skin crawled when they heard the series of slaps. Everyone saw how Amelia continued to give in to Cissie and Truman's demands. She practically tolerated all their disrespect. To some of the Quinn family members, it appeared to be the rise of the Quinn family. But now with Amelia's retaliation, it was as if everyone had been ruthlessly slapped just as Cissie was.

"Yes, just like that." Jack looked on mischievously. He totally disregarded Truman and looked towards Amelia, "Your brother even dared to kill his father. So you as his sister should retaliate ruthlessly. If you don't even dare to do this, how can you help me to control the Quinn family?"

"Understood, Jack!" Amelia smiled as she nodded. At that moment, she immediately felt that all she had endured was worth it. What Jack said soothed her bottled-up angst.

It was not about the slaps but what Jack said and the way he expressed his support for her! She endured and gave in because of Truman's status. He was the eldest son of the wealthiest family in Sunam and the future head of the Russell family. He was definitely not someone to be taken lightly.

But now Jack had clearly stated his position on this. He ... was not concerned about the Russell family! He certainly was not concerned with any consequences if Russell family was offended. Then, Jack scanned the entire crowd with his piercing eyes. His cold gaze caused every of the Quinn family members to gasp and hold their breath.

The former senior members of the Quinn family were terrified to be under Jack's intense scrutiny. As former power holders of the Quinn family, they were all too familiar with the tyrannical ways of Jack who empowered Yael and Amelia with the authority over the entire Quinn family!

That night, Morrison carried Old Master Quinn's body back to the Quinn family, and those who witnessed that would never forget the nightmare. The cold body of the Master of the family was carried lifelessly home by his son. That was the greatest insult to the Quinn family! And the Quinn family's everlasting nightmare!

In the hearts of the former power holders of the Quinn family, Jack was like an Angel of Death!

"So what do you all think?" Jack teased.

Silence. Everyone held their tongue. The hundreds and even almost a thousand people were so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone even tried hard to breathe quietly.

Then, Jack narrowed his eyes and looked at Truman. His voice was frosty as he said, "I don't know how significant your woman is but as for my Amelia, she is the head of the Quinn family!" Truman clenched his fists as his veins began to throb. He glared ferociously back towards Jack and appeared to be ready to devour him. What Jack said practically smashed his pride into pieces. "Wah!!!" Now Cissie came to her senses and wailed frantically.

She raised her left hand and swung towards Amelia's face but Amelia did not move and neither did she flinch. She raised her leg and kicked into Cissie's abdomen. With a shriek, Cissie fell backward right next to the feet of Truman.

Cissie tried to stand up but her abdomen cramped and she curled up in pain. She yelled painfully, "Truman, she hit me, what are you waiting for?"

Jack said coldly, "Amelia, as the head of the family, you should enforce the family rules in front of everybody!" He spoke emotionlessly like a true tyrant. What he said was not only for Amelia but also for the entire Quinn family!

Yael was still in the hospital and Jack knew that Amelia was gentle and would have difficulty controlling the Quinn family beasts.

Amelia would not be able to control them so he would now teach her how to exert her dominance! In the animal kingdom, the strong feed on the weak! The best way to control beasts and force them to retract their claws was to put fear into their hearts and do not tolerate any dissent.

Making an example of Cissie was the best opportunity to strike fear into everyone. Jack was even willing to include Truman into this show of force! He had decided this on his way over to the Quinn family.

Amelia hesitated but she transformed when she looked into Jack's eyes. Her character was gentle but that did not mean that she was not mentally agile. Otherwise, she could not build up a company at such a tender age. She knew that Jack was capitalizing on this moment to help her exert her dominance over the entire family.

"Cissie, as a member of the Quinn family, how dare you to be arrogant, disrespect, and challenge the authority of the head of the family? Today you shall receive your punishment!" Amelia declared as she walked towards Cissie.

Her footsteps were steady without any hesitation. All her tolerance and persistence had finally paid off. Now that Jack was there to help her establish her dominance, she must not let this opportunity go to

waste.

At this point, everyone could see the immense transformation in Amelia's prowess. Even when Amelia was controlling the Quinn family along with Yael, everyone knew that they always had some space to negotiate with Amelia although she appeared to be tough.

But now, Amelia walked towards Cissie with cold determination and steadiness. Everyone could feel the chill running down their spines and no one was in doubt of what would happen to Cissie next. "Truman, Truman..." Cissie was terrified and her face turned pale. She could not stand up as her abdomen still cramped up painfully. She held Truman's leg tightly and begged, "Truman, are you a man? How can you bear to see that Jack egging on this bitch to hit your woman?"

Kaboom!

What she said snapped Truman back to his senses. How could he stand idly by when his woman was bullied?

Instantly, Truman raged, turned and shouted at Amelia, "I am the eldest son of the top family of Sunam and Cissie is my woman. How dare you lay your hand on her!"

Bash! Truman suddenly kicked Amelia in her abdomen. Amelia grunted and crouched down as she winced in pain. Cissie immediately rejoiced. Cissie endured her aching abdomen and was held up to her feet by Truman. She spat at Amelia with disdain and then yelled at Jack, "Jack, you may be capable but you are nothing compared to my Truman!"

After Cissie said arrogantly, Truman swaggered towards Jack and said frostily, "Jack, I don't care who you are but you are now in front of the Russell family of Sunam. Even if you are a dragon, you'd better bow in submission. Don't think that you can offend the Russell family of Sunam!"

Even if he had spent most of his time overseas, he knew how powerful the Russell family was in Sunam. They were powerful enough to influence most of the noble families! That was why Truman was so self- confident and arrogant.

"Bow you crippled!" Truman yelled.

Jack declared, "Today, I, Jack, will take on your Russell family!"00NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
