Chapter 583 Uninvited Guest


    Was it hate or love?


    Mr. Ward was in a daze and looked at the small dog by the side of the road. Their distance increased


    as the car drove but his eyes continued to look at the dog. Mr. Ward realized that he didn’t know how to


    answer the question.


    Jack wiped his face and said, “The dog does not mind if the family is poor but as soon as he is


    abandoned, it bes a wolf and a beast which eats raw meat and drinks blood.”


    “When a wolf returns, it’s not to repay the kindness but to exact revenge!” Jack dered!


    The coldness reverberated within the car and chilled to the bones. Even Mr. Ward’s body was covered


    with goosebumps.


    “Master…” Mr. Ward remarked in horror.


    Jack smiled, “I know what you are worried about and I know what I’m saying. I’ve always buried deeply


    the fact that he abandoned his wife and son. But if someone were to mention or let me abandon my


    wife or son, then I will return to seek revenge!”


    Mr. Ward felt considerably more assured when he heard this and was able to calm down.


    When they were back at LJ Hospital, it was already daytime.


    Jack asked Mr. Ward to go home to rest while he went to Amber’s room. When he wheeled himself to


    the room, he saw Amber sleeping as she curled up on the bed like a kitten. He smiled tenderly and was


    about to push himself up onto the bed.


    Amber suddenly opened her eyes slowly and smiled sweetly, “Hubby, you’re back.”


    “Have I woken you up?” Jack was stunned.


    Amber smiled as she said, “My sleep had be very light after I got pregnant. I’ll wake up at the


    slightest disturbance.”


    “Where’s Daisy?” Jack asked.


    “She went back to make breakfast for us.” Amber yawned several times and rubbed her eyes, “Daisy


    must be exhausted during this period. She had to take care of so many of us including three patients.”


    Jack also felt helpless. Things happened one after another ever since he returned from overseas. He


    could hardly find an opportunity to gasp for air. Daisy had to prepare three meals a day and look after


    the patients, even Mr. Ward and Brent were exhausted.


    “It would be better after this period.” Jack sighed as he said helplessly.


    It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help ease the burden on Daisy but he couldn’t trust anyone else. The


    issues surrounding him continually evolve, mutate and broaden. It would catch him off guard as soon


    as he let his guard down. Daisy was the maid whom he found before he became wealthy and now she


    had be one of his inner circle. He could be absolutely certain about her. But whether he could


    trust another maid if he were to hire one was all based on luck.


    “You didn’t sleepst night?” Amber looked at Jack as she blinked.


    Jack yawned and nodded tiredly.


    The next moment, Amber opened her arms towards Jack and said coyly, “Come, let’s hug and sleep.”


    Jackughed, grabbed the side of the bed, and ‘struggled’ to climb onto the bed. He hugged Amber


    and fell asleep soon after.


    …


    All was calm and tranquil during the following week.


    What was worth rejoicing was Amber and Lone Wolf were discharged in session. Only Lyndall


    remained in the hospital for his recovery and treatments.


    Many of them including Jack heaved a sigh of relief when they returned to the TM Hills Vi. The quick


    session of events was like an enormous hand that grabbed everyone’s throats causing everyone to


    breathe with difficulty. Now everyone could rx a little.


    This period of rest had enabled Amber to improve her health and spirits. She looked more radiant.


    Although she still looked thin, she was much better than when they came back from overseas.


    ording to Director Lansing, as long as she rested quietly at home and avoidrge fluctuations in her


    mood, then there was nothing to worry about. Hence, Jack’s worries were somewhat eased. He was


    extremely worried that Amber or the child in her would be affected by these events. Now that Amber


    and the child were in good health, he was now looking forward to the birth of his child.


    After the period of morning sickness and now that Amber’s mood had improved, her appetite had also


    improved considerably and she began to eat very well. Each day Jack endeavored to satisfy Amber’s


    cravings and have Daisy cook her favorite dishes.


    As for Jack, he only traveled from thepany and his home. asionally he would go to the hospital


    to visit Lyndall. His days were very fulfilling.


    This morning, after Mr. Ward drove and sent Jack to DT Agency, he didn’t return immediately to the TM


    Hills Vi. Instead, he drove a distance before stopping by the side of the road.


    “He, really said that?” Patrick asked solemnly over the phone.


    Mr. Ward acknowledged, “Yes, he did.” He told Patrick about the incident with the stray dog after


    returning from the Hughes residence. He didn’t contact Patrick directly to report about this but it was


    Patrick who called him to ask about what Jack’s reactions were after they left the Hughes residence.


    After a long pause, Patrick heaved an audible sigh, “Perhaps I shouldn’t have left and stayed with


    Sophie and Jack. Then at least my family would still beplete.”


    Mr. Ward’s expression changed and replied, “But if you didn’t return to the Hughes family, you would be


    totally devoured with nothing remaining.”


    “My brother Brown could have be the head of the family,” Patrick said.


    Mr. Ward continued, “If Old Master Brown could be the head of the family, then why would he

    banish himself to the ck hell? Old Master Brown’s way of handling things was far too ruthless and


    violent.”


    “Sigh… The Hughes family is getting tooplex and so is therger environment. The emergence of


    the centuries-old Powell family is also not a good omen.”


    Bang! The phone call was cut off after Patrick’s heavy sigh.


    Mr. Ward smiled bitterly and looked at the blue skies andmented, “We are but ants under the huge


    expense of the sky. I’m a servant of young Master and will go through thick and thin with him till my


    death.”


    Jack didn’t feel tired after a day’s work. Just before the end of the workday, Jack was preparing to call


    Mr. Ward to pick him up when an uninvited guest came to thepany. There was amotion


    outside the office and the staff was happily surprised.


    Jack rubbed his nose and asked Corbin to dismiss the staff early. He then wheeled himself to close the


    door. Hana stood in silence in the middle of the office and went forward to help Jack. But just as her


    hand touched the handles of the wheelchair, smack!


    Jack forcefully pped away her hands. Hana immediately winced in pain and quickly withdrew her


    hands. It was so painful that her eyes began to tear but she endured the pain and didn’t make a sound.


    Jack closed the door and drew the curtains close. Thereafter he re-positioned the wheelchair, looked


    coldly at Hana, and said, “Do you think that what you are doing is meaningful? Or do you want me to


    announce to the world the despicable and shameless things that you did as a member of the Powell


    family?”
