Fortunately, Amber Knight did not notice his strange expression.
Jack Hughes felt guilty and kept blaming himself.
But the memories of last night in his mind were slightly vague.
He was not sure if what had happened with Ciara Wattson.
It seemed that he had to find some time to ask Ciara, but this kind of thing … how should he speak?
He took a deep breath to get rid of those confusing minds.
Jack’s eyes looked increasingly cold.
Vaughn family!
It was obvious that his strange look last night was because he was drugged.
If the killers gave the medicine, would they give the medicine that was hot and dry?
Obviously, only the Vaughn family would do that!
” The Vaughn family’s methods are too despicable. If it weren’t for luck last night, I would have died on the spot.”
This was what Jack was thinking in his heart.
At that time, the medicine caused his limbs to be weak. If it was not Brent and Lone Wolf protecting him and Ciara came at the critical moment, he would definitely have died.
If it was not the Vaughn family who gave the medicine, how could he get attacked with his power?
“What are you thinking about?”
Amber noticed the coldness spread from Jack and he was terrified.
Jack shook his head and asked, “Where is Mr. Ward?”
“He went to investigate what had happened last night.”
Amber paused and added a sentence, “You take a good rest and we did not tell this to Sophie Burton. Brent and Lone Wolf are fine and they are in the next ward. Mr. Ward will investigate the assassination.”
Jack was relieved when he knew that Brent and Lone Wolf were fine.
At this time, the door of the ward opened.
Mr. Ward walked into the ward and was obviously relieved when he saw Jack awoke.
“Mr. Ward, how is your investigation ?” asked Jack.
Mr. Ward shook his head and said, “It is difficult to investigate. Not only Aiden Lott faces difficulties, even the old master who used the intelligence network of the Hughes Family does not find anything about it.”
When such a big issue happened, he certainly could not just force Aiden to explain.
In fact, when something had happened to Jack, Mr. Ward reported to Patrick Hughes as soon as he received the news.
The intelligence network of the Hughes family had been operating since last night.
“Even the Hughes family can’t find it?”
Jack was frightened.
The Hughes family was in charge of the world’s wealth with its superb status and its power of intelligence network was even more unimaginable.
“Dozens of killers are dead. Brent and Lone Wolf killed most of them on the spot and captured the remaining ones. But, all of them killed themselves using the poison hidden between their teeth. So, we are clueless now.”
Mr. Ward frowned and said with a deep voice, “Not only that, no one knows where these killers come from as if they are not existing previously and appear abruptly.”
“How about the underground world?” Jack frowned.
Mr. Ward nodded and said, “Nothing.”
The ward remained silent.
After a few seconds.
Jack laughed suddenly.
“Those who can get it done so perfectly should be very powerful.”
Jack raised his eyebrows and looked at Mr. Ward, “Dr. Ward, do you think it is the Burton family … or the Hughes family?”
When Jack said about the Hughes family, Dr. Ward was surprised and his eyes looked bright.
“Does young master mean … we just ignored the person nearest to us?”
Dr. Ward suddenly realized that not only the intelligent network of the Hughes family, but also Aiden, Vaughn family and Wattson family’s intelligent network did not take this into consideration.
Jack nodded, “If just do it secretly, many forces are able to perform it. However, since there are no grudges between us, they will not target us. Most importantly, they need the courage to do so !”
Dr. Ward frowned and thought deeply.
With both the grudges and courage, it seemed like the Burton family and Hughes family were the most suspicious forces!
“I immediately reported this to the old master.”
Dr. Ward turned around and left the ward.
Jack sat on the bed and his eyes looked deep.
Amber, who stood beside him, was confused and asked, “Jack, is it possible?”
Obviously, what she meant was the possibility of assassination by the Hughes family.
Jack smiled with a hidden meaning, “Perhaps the ending will not be what we are expecting.”
Amber was puzzled but she did not continue asking.
The next two days.
The whole city seemed to be stirred under Aiden’s full investigation.
After that, Drago Chou also received Dr. Ward’s order and started operating his intelligence network.
The seemingly peaceful city was surging in the dark.
Even because of the joint investigation of Vaughn family and Wattson family.
The capital city was not peaceful anymore.
Previously, the capital city just experienced great changes caused by the bombing of Burton family.
The joint investigation of Vaughn family and Wattson family had pushed the situation of the capital city to a more critical level.
When the great forces knew about this news, they were shocked.
The force who assassinated the heir of the Hughes family meant that it was declaring a challenge to the Hughes family!
Soon, some great forces suspected the Burton family.
It was because the Burton family had the biggest desire to seek revenge with Jack.
All in all, Jack directly stepped on the face of the richest man in the Burton family into the mud.
At Ancient Castle Villa.
Old Master Burton sat lonely besides the window and looked at the workers who were busy renovating in the garden.
Behind him, Dyson Burton had a serious expression and said, “Dad, there are many of them discussing that we are the master behind the assassination of Jack.”
“Investigate! Check with your full power!”
Old Master Burton said angrily, “We, the Burton family, will never do such dirty things. I even want Jack to handle the Burton family, definitely not me who challenges the Hughes family.”
Jack and Patrick Hughes ruined the reputation of the richest man in the Burton family within a day.
But, Old Master Burton was not foolish.
He never thought of assassinating Jack.
There was no difference from separating with Jack and Patrick.
“The Vaughn family and the Wattson family almost searched through the capital city but still found nothing.” Dyson said helplessly.
“Even though we did not find anything, we still need to continue our investigation. This is our attitude!”
Old Master Burton was frustrated. If they did not show their attitude at this particular moment, it was like admitting to the public.
“I understand.” Dyson left hurriedly.
On the third day.
Jack was recovering and enjoying the caring service from Amber but suddenly Aiden came in.
“Don’t you know how to knock on the door ?”
Jack looked indifferent and was slightly unpleasant.
“I am sorry, Mr. Hughes.”
Aiden was panicked so he apologized immediately.
“Anything?” asked Jack.
“The result is out !”
Aiden’s words made Jack sit still.
Then, Aiden directly gave a document to Jack.
Meanwhile, he said, “I am not the only one who got this result. Drago, Vaughn family, Wattson family and also the richest in the capital city, Burton family got the same result with me.”
Same?
Jack’s pupils contracted.
Immediately, he took and looked at the documents.
At this moment.
Dr. Ward walked into the ward and looked at the situation inside.
Dr. Ward smiled helplessly and said, “Young master, it is a scapegoat for sure.”
Scapegoat?!
Jack was stunned.
Aiden changed his expression and looked at Dr. Ward unbelievably.
Dr. Ward touched his chin and said sadly, “How strong is the master behind to let a family become a scapegoat ?”
