Winner Takes All

At eight in the evening.

Jack rushed to the "Jade Spring Villa" outside the city.

That's Aiden's industry and the place of their appointment that tine. It's also a famous private clubhouse in the city.

One must say that Aiden was really powerful in the city!

However, Jack still brought Lone Wolf with him for safety purposes.

They were rivals and they had been fighting for so many years with neither side winning. That's enough to prove Drago's actual strength.

At the dining table, Aiden might not be able to stop Drago if Drago wanted to do something!

The taxi stopped at the gate of Jade Spring Villa.

Jack and Lone Wolf got off the car and walked towards the villa.

"Mr. Hughes, are there any possibility for you to reconcile with Drago?" Asked Lone Wolf, who knew the purpose of this trip. He shouldn't ask questions since he was just a follower. He had held it back all the way, but in the end, he couldn't help asking when they were about to reach the entrance.

Most importantly, Drago had a reputation of being reckless and he was worried that the dinner that night would not be good for Jack.

"No."

Jack simply said, "Whether it's the last feud, or the future development of DT... Drago and I are completely opposed to each other, but since it is Aiden's invitation, we still have to do him a favour." Lone Wolf's eyes glistened while worrying, "What about your safety..."

"In case anything happens, you should catch the main enemy first!" Said Jack in a deep voice.

"This is a private club. Both of you can't enter without invitation or appointment." The security guard at the door stopped Jack and Lone Wolf.

Lone Wolf asked, "What? Isn't Aiden here?"

The guard's expression changed. He hurriedly bowed down and said, "Pardon me, I didn't know you're Mr. Lott's guests. Please follow me."

Right after that, the security guard turned around and used the walkie-talkie to say, "Bring the car over."

Soon, a limousine drove out of the villa.

After asking Jack and Lone Wolf to get in the limousine, the security guard immediately ran to the car to lead the way.

As the villa's security guard, he was not qualified yet to get in the same car as Mr. Lott's guests.

Along the way, Jack looked at the scenery of the villa with great interest.

He had only heard of "Jade Spring Villa" before, and that was his first time entering it.

The villa was located at the foot of a mountain and beside a stream. With the lamps and the fog on the stream, the villa looked as beautiful as a fairyland at night. Antique-style buildings appeared scattered throughout the villa.

Even by car, reaching a single antique building would need ten minutes.

"Sir, we have arrived."

The security guard who had been running for ten minutes looked the same, he wasn't even out of breath. He then turned around and bowed respectfully. "Let's go."

Jack got off the car with Lone Wolf.

There were two tall and slender beauties in red cheongsam, standing by the door.

Seeing Jack and Lone Wolf coming, the two beauties greeted them with a bow. After bowing, the two beauties stepped forward and pushed the door open before making the gesture of inviting them in. From beginning to end, none of them said a word.

But their manners were very professional and elegant.

Was that the life of the rich?

Jack glanced at the two women in cheongsam. With their charms, they could probably attract those rich kids to compete against each other for them.

But in "Jade Spring villa", they're just welcoming guests!

With a luxurious and classical interior decoration, the melodious piano sound accompanied by the gurgling stream from the rock garden and rivers brought the artistic conception to another level. Beside the rock garden and rivers, there's a round table that could fit twenty people.

Not far from it, there was a screen.

"Please wait for a moment. Mr. Lott will be here soon." The cheongsam beauty who led the way spoke with her beautiful voice.

Jack nodded. After the beauty left the room, he looked over at the screen on the opposite side to him.

Lone Wolf frowned and looked at it in doubt.

"Mr. Hughes, is there something wrong?"

"Rich!"

Jack said, "Really rich!"

Lone Wolf was dumbfounded.

Jack pointed to the screen. With his reddened face and ears, he said, "It's made of yellow rosewood, and it is at least a few hundred of years old... It is an antique. If I am not mistaken, the painting on it should be Wu Tao-Tzu's Scroll of the Eight-seven Immortals. It's a priceless treasure!"

Speaking in excitement, Jack twisted his mouth, "It's actually used as a screen here..."

Lone Wolf's pupils dilated, and his face was full of shock, "Isn't this a bit too wasteful?"

Jack decided not to give any comment. He took a deep breath and suppressed his shock as he looked at the Scroll of the Eight-seven Immortals on the screen.

He had some knowledge about antiques. After all, he was engaged in real estates and he couldn't show any weakness when conversing with people.

The Scroll of the Eight-seven Immortals on the screen was definitely not an imitation or a fake one, it's real!

But he really did not expect that "Jade Spring Villa" was so extravagant that such painting was used as a background!

At the same time, outside.

When Aiden who had been rushing over arrived at the door, he coincidentally heard what Jack said inside the room.

He was surprised and gestured to the two ladies to stay silent before walking into the room with a smile.

Clap, clap, clap!

There was a burst of applause.

Jack and Lone Wolf turned their heads and looked back.

Aiden walked in with a smile on his face, and his hands were still clapping.

"Very good, Jack! You unexpectedly recognized the Scroll of the Eight-seven Immortals."

Aiden expressed his admiration openly, "I have placed this painting in this room for several years, and there were numerous visitors since then. Other than Asher, the master of traditional Chinese painting, you're the second one to recognize it!"

Jack smiled modestly, "Thank you Mr Lott, but I only know a little bit."

Aiden was still smiling, but his gaze wandered onto that painting as he paused for a moment.

He smiled to Jack and Lone Wolf and said, "Sit down first. Drago should be here soon."Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

After they sat down, Jack and Aiden chatted.

Just in five minutes, they could hear Drago's laughter coming from outside.

"Mr. Lott, you've spent a lot of money this time. You've even opened the First box of Jade Spring Villa."

The name of that room was "the First box".

When Jack just entered the room, he specially glanced at the plaque on the doorframe, but he didn't realize its meaning. After all, that was his first visit to Jade Spring Villa, so he didn't understand the meaning of "the First box".

Aiden pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose. He got up and smiled while saying, "Since Mr. Chou is coming, of course I should open the First box today."

Drago came in with two underlings.

Hearing Aiden's words, he pretended to smile and said, "You flattered me, didn't you? How many times did you open the First box out of the numerous times I came to visit your Jade Spring Villa? I know the rules of the First box... You won't open it easily for anyone!"

After saying that, he turned to face Jack and gave him a thumbs up, "You're really awesome. Otherwise, Mr. Lott would never open the First box for you!"

He acted like their last encounter had never happened.

"Thank you, Mr. Chou." Jack smiled indifferently.

Drago was clearly hiding his bad intentions with his words and actions at that time.

However, Jack understood the rules of the First Box from Drago's words!

Just when Jack and Drago were talking.

Aiden pushed his glasses up and glanced at the screen with a smile...000
