The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 766 A Vacation

Three days later.

Jack and the rest went to South Maine.

This trip was a decision made with consensus from everyone.

Now that the weather was getting colder, it was not ideal for them to visit a cold place as it would deter

Amber’s recovery.

South Maine felt like spring and its weather was pleasant all year round.

It was best that they came here.

The private plane flew above the clouds.

A smile was plastered on everyone’s faces.

Amber was nestling in Jack’s embrace as the two watched the beautiful sea of clouds from the window.

Such an atmosphere made everyone feel relaxed.

“Young Master, would you like me to inform the Hughes family’s office in South Maine?”

Mr. Ward came over and asked.

As this was only a vacation, it would save them a lot of trouble if they informed the office beforehand to

prepare for their arrival.

“It’s okay, I don’t want too many people knowing about this trip. Thou shall not cause any disturbance

to the people there during this trip.”

Jack waved and said in a feigned serious tone.

Amber, who was in his embrace, burst out in laughter.

Soon after, the rest let out a chuckle as well.

Then, she punched Jack lightly and whined, “Stop it, you idiot.”

Jack pretended to be in pain, “Ouch! Only a kiss can heal my pain now.”

His words made Amber blush instantly.

Jack was too bold!

As soon as the rest heard his words, they had an unnatural expression on their faces before everyone

turned their heads away as if it was a planned move.

Mr. Ward too was great at reading the situation and went to his seat in the last row.

When the plane landed at South Maine Airport.

It was almost noon.

Jack and his troop did not stop their journey. They booked a few cars instantly and went straight to

Great Lake.

When they arrived, they went to admire the beautiful scenery right away.

As for Mr. Ward, he was busy arranging their accommodation at a five-star hotel nearby.

Finally, when he was done with his task, he sat on the couch in the lobby and muttered helplessly,

“Young Master must me taking me as a strong young boy. He could just get the Hughes family office to

do this. My old bones can’t take this anymore.”

He looked at the warm beam of sunshine outside.

Mr. Ward hesitated and thought if he should go to Jack and the rest.

After all, he came here for a vacation as well. All these trivial matters should not be deterring him from

enjoying himself in this trip.

However, he decided against it after thinking for a moment.

He just took out a book and started to read it.

“You’re not going to find them?”

A voice interrupted Mr. Ward’s concentration.

Upon putting the book down, Mr. Ward was caught by surprise when he saw the Mysterious Man

before him, “How did you get here?”

After the group had decided about this trip to South Maine, they booked for a private plane and

departed right away.

The Mysterious Man was nowhere to be found since the beginning, so they couldn’t invite him along.

But now, the Mysterious Man appeared in their faces right after they arrived at South Maine. Even if he

took the plane, he couldn’t get here this quick.

“I come because I want to.”

The Mysterious Man smiled and took a seat next to Mr. Ward. He threw a sideway glance at the book

in Mr. Ward’s hand and said in a helpless tone, “You should read something else. Aren’t you tired of

this genre?”

Mr. Ward replied earnestly, “When people get older, they like to reminisce the old things from the past.

It still feels new to me.”

The man gave Mr. Ward a look, then hesitated for a moment before he spoke again.

“Did you guys think of the danger of this trip here to South Maine?”

Mr. Ward’s relaxed expression was now gone.

He closed his book, kept it properly before saying, “We did, but it isn’t important.”

“What?”

The Mysterious Man was baffled.

“As compared to the situation at home now, it’s really not as important.”

Mr. Ward said seriously, “The Young Master and I had discussed about it. It’s too gloomy at home now

and everyone would feel depressed by just staying in there. We might as well take this chance to come

out here to relax. The most important thing is for Mrs. Hughes to feel better.”

“We must look forward and not stay in the same spot just because of fear. To be honest with you, if we

continued to stay at home, Mrs. Hughes might fall back into depression because of the atmosphere.”

Shrugging, Mr. Ward continued again, “Plus, although we have many people on this trip, it shouldn’t

take too long. We didn’t leave any flight records too. I don’t believe those hidden forces can track us

down.”

“That’s true. When Jack went to X City, it was pretty calm there.”

The Mysterious Man nodded and finally felt more relieved as he slumped lazily on the sofa, his hands Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

supporting his head, “Actually, I haven’t gone on a trip in a long time. This is a good chance for me to

enjoy myself too.”

“You can’t be exposed.” Mr. Ward said simply.

The man smiled then looked up at the ceiling.

“I’m considered exposed when I’m with you guys but considered as being hidden when I’m amidst the

crowd.”

“It’s not like I’m walking side by side with all of you. I’m just following from far away. Can’t I at least

enjoy the view like a normal person?”

Mr. Ward smiled deeply, “I’ve been wondering about your identity. Wait no, all of us are curious about

who you really are.”

“I’m gonna leave first!”

The man stood up and walked through the exit of the hotel right away.

Mr. Ward did not stop him, nor continue to think about the question.

Everyone had their privacy concerns after all.

Most importantly, Mr. Ward couldn’t compete with the Mysterious Man.

He then took out his book and continued to immerse himself in the story again.

Half an hour later.

Jack and the rest returned to the hotel.

Mr. Ward quickly approached them, “Young Master, Mrs. Hughes, you’re back already?”

“Yeah, we’re going to take a rest first. Earlier, Brent asked around and found out that the fun here only

begins at night. So let’s replenish our energy first and head out in the evening again.”

Jack was sitting in his wheelchair as he smiled and took the room card from Mr. Ward before heading

upstairs.

Steve, Rosie, Brent and Daisy followed behind them.

Mr. Ward finished distributing the room cards in his hand.

When he looked at the figures in front of him, he suddenly felt like a string in his heart had been pulled.

Mr. Ward suddenly understood why Jack brought him along.

It wasn’t to make him work or anything!

But because…he was the only single one!

The night came.

Jack and the others who had taken a rest in the evening left the hotel together.

South Maine was a tourist attraction.

It was a bustling place that was full of life at night.

From parties to night markets, they had the best ones in the vicinity.

Since the group had not taken their dinner yet, they went straight to the biggest night market for a food

hunt.

At 8 p.m.

The night market was filled with life and packed with people.

Smoke was circling all types of food stalls.

The roadside had tables and chairs set up. People were already gathering around, exchanging toasts

and laughing with one another.

The air was filled with a smell that could make anyone go hungry in a second.

Be it Jack or Amber’s family, they did not feel repelled by such an atmosphere. The same went for Mr.

Ward, Daisy and Brent as well.

This was the true scent of life.

It was supposed to have a little more noise in it.

Along the way, the group did not restrain themselves from the heavenly tastes and bought all the food

they liked. While walking, they ate and chatted happily among themselves.

Brent pushed Jack’s wheelchair, while Jack had a portion of stinky tofu in his hands helplessly.

It was Amber’s leftover, and he didn’t mind that as he took bites of it from time to time.

There were many barbecue stalls around them, and all were crowded with people.

Among the crowd which was eating and drinking their nights away, happy and excited voices

resounded.

When Jack looked up inadvertently, he froze for a moment.

Before an exceptionally popular barbecue stall, he saw a few people sitting around in the corner.

And his gaze was fixed on a woman among them.

That woman was wearing a cap and had a thin, beige windbreaker on. She curled up on her seat as

she enjoyed the food with the group as they laughed to their hearts’ content.

Even though Jack could only see her back, but he felt a wave of familiarity washed over him at just the

sight of her.
