“Young Master, Jensen House is the house of Madame Hughes. Normally, even the old Master has to get permission to enter.”
Mr. Ward’s complexion was dark, with a faint fear.
“Does she want to get me to her place and make trouble again?”
Jack rubbed his nose and sneered, “If I am not going, it will be disrespectful to her.”
“Young Master…”
Mr. Ward’s face changed drastically, and he was about to convince him, but Jack had already strode forward.
“Mr. Ward, what should we do?”
Brent asked in a low voice.
Jensen House was Madame Hughes’ forbidden place in the Hughes family. Even the head of the family must be approved before going there.
If Jack really got in there, once there was a change, it would be a turtle in the urn, just waiting to be killed.
Mr. Ward pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly showed determination.
“Brent, are you afraid of death?”
“No!”
Brent replied sonically.
“Mr. Ward, Brent.” Daisy’s expression changed drastically.
Brent smiled, “Daisy, you should stay outside the courtyard later. Let Mr. Ward and I accompany Young Master inside. If anything goes wrong, you have to leave immediately.”
He said in a low tone and with a resolute expression.
Daisy couldn’t help but feeling uneasy.
But as she met Brent’s gaze, she pressed her red lips and nodded.
Immediately, the three of them followed Jack.
“He will be dead.”
Killian raised his hand and wiped the blood from his face, and smiled darkly, like a snake.
Leaving a group of ordinary people and servants in horror, he walked forward quickly.
Soon, Jack saw an old woman.
The old woman was covered in age spots, her face was drooping, and her hair was gray.
Seeing Jack and the others, she kept a straight face without saying a word, and walked straight ahead to lead the way.
Mr. Ward whispered, “Young Master, this is Madame Hughes’s close servant.”
After a pause, he added, “She was the maid she brought to the Hughes family when Madame Hughes married into the family.”
That was the most trusted under the closest!
Jack was surprised.
In ancient times, there was a habit of bringing a maid with on the day the lady got married.
Such a maid, even after arriving at the lady’s husband’s house, was the most trusted one to the lady under all, and she was the closest to her.
Seeing Jack’s face darkened, Mr. Ward hurriedly added, “If you really enter the Jensen House, we won’t have the final say anymore, Young Master, think twice before anything.”
“If I don’t go, can things be done today?”
Jack raised his eyebrows and smiled, his eyes bursting, “In all of the Hughes family, I was seen as a thorn in the eye since the Hughes Mansion archway. If I was a little softer, they would approach to attack, that’s the case, why should I wrong myself?”
Of course he knew what Madame Hughes asked him to go to Jensen House for.
First, she was afraid of affecting the entire Hughes family, that some of the things that only the upper class knew would become known to everyone in the family.
Second, if it really caused a burst in the whole family, it would definitely attract the attention of his injured father.
And third and most important point, was to call him to Jensen House because that would be the area of Madame Hughes herself, so that she could demonstrate the means and do whatever she wanted.
When others respected him, he respected others.
The first time he went to the Hughes family, no matter if in public or private, he didn’t come to make trouble.
However, when he first went through the archway of Hughes Mansion, he was called a bastard and was denied to enter.
Jack knew the truth that good people were easy being deceived and bullied by others, and even Brown’s guidance was more thorough.
Ambiguous avoidance couldn’t solve the problem at all.
Since it couldn’t be solved, then he had to use his fists to forcibly make a path!
He, Jack, was never a pushover!
Along the way, it was silent.
The magnificent buildings of ancient temples demonstrated the heritage and status of the Hughes family.
There were many pavilions and landscape gardens.
It was surrounded by thousands of acres of field.
After passing numerous curve roads, and bypassing a few of yards, and finally they walked into a quiet house by the leading of the old woman.
It seemed to be an ancient giant compound.
Under all the ancient atmosphere, what was hidden was ultimate luxury and honor.
In the Buddhist hall not far away, there was still a sound of chanting echoing.
The big yard was covered in green and a breeze was slowly blowing.
There was also a small stream with gurgling water.
“Wait here!”
The old woman gave the order coldly, and walked towards the inner hall.
Killian gave Jack a squinting, cold look, then followed the old woman into the inner hall.
Jack walked to the side of the stream on his own. The stream was clear, and there were fishes swimming.
He picked up a stone and threw it into the water, making the fish panic.
Mr. Ward and Brent stood behind him with solemn expressions.
Jack being so indifferent stunned them.
But still, knowing what was going to happen next, they couldn’t be as calm as Jack.
“Presumptuous!”
The old woman’s loud shout suddenly exploded, “This is the Miss’s house, how can you allow yourself make it dirty?”
Miss?
Dirty?
Jack sneered coldly, she really fully displaying the power of her cronies.
He turned around suddenly, and saw Madame Hughes walking out of the inner hall with the support of the old woman and Killian.
“Miss? Whose family still called their old women “Miss”? This title has other meanings now.”
He was being banter.
Madame Hughes’ expression was extremely gloomy.
Killian was even more surprised.
“You are a small person, how can you insult Miss? Do you want to die?” The old woman was furious.
The expressions of Mr. Ward and Brent changed.
Mr. Ward hurriedly clenched his fists and said, “Madame Hughes, Young Master is here today, he just wants to visit and see the master’s injury, he has no other intentions.”
“Visit?”
Madame Hughes sneered, staring sharply at him, and approached Mr. Ward, “He is an ignorant kid, he insulted me, he really deserves to die!”
Just with one sentence, the atmosphere in the yard suddenly became severe.
Killian’s eyes flashed proudly.
The old woman seemed to have found the source of confidence and suddenly became more confident.
She struck her neck and yelled to Jack, “Kneel down to apologize to Miss!”
However, Jack exploded with momentum, sharp like a sword, his gaze was on the old woman.
“Apologize? You are simply a Hughes family servant, since you entered the Hughes family, you are a slave to the Hughes family. I am a child of the Hughes family’s head, you are nobody to tell me what to do.”
“If you are being arrogant, telling me kneel down, then I will have you dead!”
He was filled with killing intent, sharp like a sword.
The old woman’s face suddenly paled, her mouth opened, and she was speechless.
She believed that she was a confidant of Madame Hughes, and she has been used to her position in the Hughes family.
With Madame Hughes backing her up, she dared to straighten her back and speak even when facing Patrick.
But now, she was told to die?!
“On your knees! Who are you to speak?”
Madame Hughes turned sullenly and scolded the old woman angrily.
The old woman’s face changed drastically, and she glanced at Madame Hughes in horror, and immediately understood that Madame Hughes was giving her a way back.
Immediately she retreated behind Madame Hughes.
“Grandma, why waste your time with this bastard, he is just a stupid person.” Killian said suddenly.
Just as he said that, Jack looked at Killian abruptly, “So, your face doesn’t hurt anymore?”
