The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 33 Danger Approaching

Fortunately, Sophie was alright.

Daisy and Dr. Hale were still so anxious about it.

They didn’t mention what had just happened when Jack hurried into the ward.

Sophie knew Jack suffered a lot. She did not want to burden him a bit more of her matters.

Daisy hesitated on telling Jack the truth as Sophie had told her not to.

"You seem exhausted, Jack," Sophie said to Jack with a bitter smile.

Within this short month, Sophie underwent a surgery while Jack divorced Katherine.

It was an extremely tough time for Jack.

But Jack managed to deal with all the mess while working hard to pay his mom's hospital bill.

"I’m fine, mom.”

Jack felt less stress and strain as his mother was getting better day by day.

Still, he was really tired and pressured because of heavy workload.

But he thought it was all worth it. He did his best to have what he wanted.

“Oh dear…you wouldn’t be so stressed if it wasn’t for me,” said Sophie guiltily.

“No! It’s not like that. You’ve gone through so much to raise me up. You used to work over night, but

you’ve never complained. Now my life is way less tough than yours at that time. It’s my turn to take

good care of you now,” said Jack.

Sophie overworked and turned out to be ill as she needed to make a living only with Jack.

He was very grateful to his mom, but also resentful to the man that abandoned them.

“Thank God. My good boy,” said Sophie.

“Have a good rest, mom. I’ll give you a surprise after you leave the hospital,” Jack said as he raised his

eyebrows.

Just as he was going to leave, he saw Daisy looking at them with tears in her eyes.

He greeted Daisy when he was about to leave.

As he walked out, a man in a Rolls Royce invited him to get in.

“Why are you here, Mr. Ward,” asked Jack.

“I wanted to visit your mother, but she wasn’t aware of the truth, so I’ll visit her next time,” said Mr.

Ward.

“Is there anything else?” asked Jack.

“There’s something I wanted to report to you.” Mr. Ward frowned.

“What’s up?” asked Jack.

“Someone wanted to find you the other day,” said Mr. Ward seriously.

“Me?” Jack lifted his brows.

“Someone noticed you because of the announcement of YK Group entering our company. Danger is

approaching,” said Mr. Ward.

“He is just so smart that he can come make a deal with me while can’t stop them from troubling me,”

said Jack ironically.

“Things aren’t that simple, Young master.”

“Old master wants you to take control of the family business, but some other family members want to

take over instead,” Mr. Ward explained.

“They’ll have to kill me?” Jack laughed.

Mr. Ward spoke nothing but nodded slowly.

Jack was stunned and his smile faded.

Man dies in pursuit of wealth, and birds die in pursuit of food.

After all, in such a big wealthy family, killing a person for possessions was like a piece of cake.

“Brent, ”Mr. Ward shouted.

“Yes? Mr. Ward.” A strong man in the driver’s seat responded.

Jack frowned.

Brent was big and muscular like a ferocious beast.

“Old master sends him to protect you.”

“Brent is a well-trained head of warrior hired by Old Master when he was overseas. Brent was good at

fighting, gun battling and detecting,” said Mr. Ward seriously.

Whoa!

Jack was amazed.

Jack had never seen a warrior in real life.

He was so surprised that his father assigned a warrior to protect him.

He felt nervous, too.

Mr. Ward sighed.

“What’s up?” asked Jack.

“Since you made it in your first battle of the project, everyone is eyeing you covetously now, Young

master. Old master and I do not expect this to happen.”

“But it’s been too late. You must be careful. The war has started!” said Mr. Ward as he blamed himself.

“Are those people that overwhelming?” asked Jack as he frowned.

Jack was confused why he got protected from the members of the family like this.

“Your abilities are recognized in handling the family business, but it takes more than this to succeed.

Since you live with your mother for such a long time, you don’t receive the elite cultivation of the family.

In some aspects, you aren’t as well-trained as the others in the family, young master” said Mr. Ward.

Elite cultivation?

Jack felt relieved as he said with a confident smile, “It’s fine. I can make it. I’ll be superior than them.

People always look me down. They call me bastard. If I succeed, will they be so ashamed? I’ll show

them what I have.”

Jack was motivated and ready to fight. He was not a weak person. Since things have happened, he

knew he had nothing to lose.

Strong Brent fueled his confidence.

Mr. Ward sighed again as he felt Jack’s sarcastic words.

“When will those people come here?” asked Jack. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Young master, their movement is unknown and no way to track, but they might have reached for a

while,” said Brent in a deep voice.
