Chapter 780 ‘Grand Banquet’
Chapter 780 ‘Grand Banquet’
The mocking voice filled the entire hall and at this moment, Shirley became totally horrified and
panicked. Jack’s words were like a formless hand that dashed her final hopes and pushed her into the NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
depths and darkness of hopelessness.
Even Mr. Ward, Amber, and Brent were shocked. The three of them did not even consider this
possibility. When Mr. Ward and Brent decided that it was better to deal with this once and for all, it was
in consideration that Jack had once been merciful to Shirley and now that it had involved Amber, it was
difficult to ensure that it would not happen again. Now Shirley had been implicated in the accident and
Jack’s words had made it clear to them. All of a sudden, it was totally justified for them to kill Shirley.
Jack shrugged, looked sinisterly at Shirley, and said, “You indeed look innocent, pitiful and innocent.
You acted very well inclusive of your very convincing cries.” Jack rubbed his nose and chuckled, “But
you must have forgotten that between the two of us, it had always been me toying with you rather than
you setting me up. I am fully aware of your deceptions.”
Kaboom! Shirley’s body shuddered, was immediately deflated, and collapsed onto the ground.
Hopelessness, despair, disdain, and all sorts of emotions overwhelmed her, inclusive of regret.
She should not have tacitly agreed and instigated someone to kill Jack. Now, not only was that
unsuccessful, the plot had backfired and even plunged herself into the abyss…
Her tears continued to flow as she filled the hall with the sounds of her sobs. Except that now her sobs
seemed genuine compared to her wails a moment ago.
Amber appeared to ponder deeply as she hesitated to speak out. Thereafter, Jack signaled Brent to
leave and said calmly, “Let Marshall handle the rest.”
“Yes, Master.” Mr. Ward nodded respectfully.
Since Marshall was also going to die, he would terminate the entire Turner family mercilessly. Mr. Ward
was not worried that Marshall would escape. The Hughes family could easily locate someone who was
once the supervisor of the local office. Marshall would also not be so stupid as to try to escape. If he
were to escape, then his family would be terminated. Under such circumstances, unless Marshall had
lost his mind, he would terminate the Turner family and then wait for his end.
As for Shirley, her fate was sealed when Jack saw through her deception. She could not escape from
the Hughes local office. No one bothered with the devastated Shirley because she was no different
than the unconscious Austin.
They drove away from the local office and towards the hotel. It was dead silent inside the car. Jack
noticed that Amber seemed troubled. Amber had left for a period of time after what had happened
previously. It was also obvious that Amber had been traumatized by what happened tonight.
Amber shook her head and barely smiled, “I’m trying to understand you. I’m fine.”
Jack smiled, used his right hand to tilt Amber’s head to rest onto his chest to rest.
It was already very late when they reached the hotel. Steve, Rosie, and Daisy were puzzled as to
where Jack and the rest had gone to. Jack was able to find an excuse and allay their concerns. After
all, they were at a sightseeing region and it was normal for Jack to deviate from their planned itinerary.
The night in South Maine had started with a car accident and turned into a raging storm. What
happened to the Turner family was like a tsunami and soon everyone would be talking about it. At least
no one photographed nor recorded Saxon’s outrage after the accident and could not link the two
incidents.
The head of the elite families in South Maine and the key business leaders in the local South Maine
economy would never sleep in peace from tomorrow onwards. They had more means to gather
information than the regular folks and their information would be far more detailed. As soon as they
received notice of the accident, they were updated by the second how the Turner family assets were
slowly torn apart and devoured.
In an instant, all the elite families raged and started to reveal their moves. The business world was as
ruthless as the battlefield.
Now, the other families do not need to spend any effort to break up the Turner family assets as they
were already divided into manageable pieces for them to acquire. The Turner family assets were
practically served on a platter for them to feast upon.
If they could not even respond adequately to this, then they did not deserve to be elite families. As they
were in a feeding frenzy, they started to feel that the situation was absurd and pitied the Turner family.
Who could have expected that the wealthiest family of South Maine would be doomed because of a
road accident?
The elite families of South Maine begun to celebrate wildly as a downpour blanketed the city. It was a
late autumn thunderstorm. The lightning flashes and rolling thunders were like a live performance
during a grand banquet feasting on the morsels of Turner family assets.
At the Hughes local office.
A black BMW X7 drove away from the office in the cover of darkness. The car sped through the rain
and out of the South Maine city limits.
Kaboom! Lightning flashed and thunder clapped.
The entire region was soaked in the rain and the ground turned muddy. There was a stench of rot in the
air. The lights of the BMW X7 shone brightly but it could not be seen in the darkness and the heavy
downpour.
Marshall stood emotionlessly in front of the car and dug a hole in the ground with a shovel. He did not
hesitate for a moment when he eliminated the Turner family. He maintained a cold and solemn
demeanor throughout, including now.
He knew that death was waiting for him but he did not dare to slip up and had to execute Mr. Ward’s
orders entirely to the end… because this concerned the safety of his entire family.
He was willing to die so that the rest of his family could be safe.
Clink clank…
He finally managed to dig out a huge hole. Marshall went back to the car and ruthlessly dragged out
Austin and threw him into the hole like he was throwing out the trash. Then, he returned to the car and
dragged out the terrified Shirley…
