The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 814 Replaced Her With A Fake One

In the darkness.

The cry was full of despair, fear, and helplessness.

Only this voice was so weak that there was no second sound after it was uttered.

Only a low, mosquito-like wailing.

Time passed slowly.

In the darkness and silence, the feeling of time passing was indeed very vague.

But all human perceptions were expanded. It was so slight that even a pin dropped on the ground

might be heard.

Snap ...

A sound of footsteps came.

Her body trembled, and her wailing and sobbing then became lower.

This was the first sound that she heard after she woke up that was not from herself.

At this time, she was trying to listen.

The footsteps sounded more and more clear and coherent.

Snap ... snap ...

The sound of footsteps was not fast, but getting closer and closer, more and more clear.

It was coming towards her room.

Finally.

The sound of footsteps disappeared at the doorway.

Click!

The sound of the door opening.

The light from the corridor, with the door open, spilled into the dark room, illuminating a corner of the

entrance to this room.

And in the doorway stood a tall man. The hallway lights imprinted his figure in the room where the light

was, stretching his silhouette long and long.

"You ... are awake, huh?"

A voice that was hoarse to the extreme echoed through the room.

The person on the bed trembled violently. In a flash, fear seemed like weeds wrapped around her

whole body. She even developed a strong feeling of suffocation as if drowning.

"How, how ... are you?!"

She exclaimed with a cry of disbelief.

With this weak cry of terror echoed through the room.

Snap!

The sound of the lights being turned on.

Light instantly filled the entire room.

Because of a long time in the dark, now as being stimulated by the light, the woman on the bed

instantly fell into a short period of "blindness".

But the scene in the room was absolutely terrifying!

It could be called ... appalling!

The man standing in the doorway was dressed in black robes and exuded an extremely false feeling

from head to toe.

His eyes reflected a cold luster against the light.

It was that mysterious man!

And what was truly terrifying to the point of making one's body tingle was that the person lying on the

bed was actually ...Amber!

The mysterious man stared indifferently at Amber on the bed and opened his mouth, letting out a

hoarse voice, "I really underestimated the time it took for you to awaken. I didn't expect you to wake up

so quickly, which almost spoiled my big event."

Amber was lying on a bed with her hands and feet bound.

Her eyelids fluttered lightly. After gradually adapting to the bright light, she then slowly reopened her

eyes.

But she did not immediately respond to the mystery man's questions.

At this point, fear filled her entire body.

She slowly looked at everything in the room in horror.

The pungent smell of disinfectant water.

The familiar testing instruments in the hospital.

And the familiar ward.

Everything was telling her that she was still in the hospital.

What the hell happened to her ...?

"Don't look, this ward is in a room on the top floor of the hospital where you lived before. There are only

two rooms between it and the one you lived in at first."

The mystery man's voice was hoarse and cold.

It was as if all the righteousness he had when he faced Jack before was gone at this moment.

His eyes, refracted by the luster of the light, were devoid of the slightest emotion. And he looked at

Amber on the hospital bed, as if he was just looking at a piece of meat on the chopping board ...

Boom!

His cold, hoarse voice, like a thunderclap, exploded in Amber's ears.

In a flash, Amber was dumbfounded.

Her pale, stunningly beautiful face was filled with shock and disbelief, and she even felt absurd.

Her mind was filled with fear. At this moment, as the mysterious man said this, she gradually calmed

down. One by one, doubts, just like a tidal wave booming up, crashed viciously against her every

nerve.

What exactly happened?

Why did the mystery man do this?

He forced her to stay here, so who was ... beside Jack now?

For a moment, Amber's breathing became rapid. She opened her mouth and took a deep breath.

But the air she inhaled into her mouth was extremely thin.

And the air in her lungs was being squeezed out even faster.

Suffocation ...

Intense suffocation!

Amber's eyes were red and filled with tears.

She tried to move, but her hands and feet were bound tightly with ropes, so she couldn't move at all.

Otherwise, she would have been able to get up when she woke up earlier.

She tilted her head and struggled to bow her neck in reverse, staring as hard as she could at the

mystery man at the door. And tears were flowing down the corners of her eyes.

"I remember that I passed out when those people rushed into the ward. So ... what exactly happened?"

Amber was crying and her voice was hoarse and weak. Even as she spoke, her pale lips turned a little

purple because of the intense choking sensation, "So the assassination inside the ... ward was all

planned by you?"

She was not stupid.

Even if she was more fearful and panicked, the scene in front of her eyes, as well as the memories

before she fell into a coma, had extremely profoundly confirmed her suspicions at this moment.

Even, when asking these two questions, Amber calmed down rarely.

She was the daughter of the Knight family and Ms. Hughes, who was the envy of all.

But that didn’t mean she was useless.

Her education, family background, and experience, all decided that she was never a person who was

not useful.

Otherwise, she could not have returned to Jack's side after learning that he was divorced, and could

have easily convinced her father for her to take over the EnRich building materials company

established by him, thus secretly helping Jack.

She was just simple.

Because she had her parents to spoil her when she was a child and Jack to love her after she got

married.

She had someone to lean on, so she remained innocent without scruple.

Because Jack was always there to protect her, to protect her to stay innocent, and to protect her to be

at peace.

But in her current situation, she had no one to rely on, and all she could rely on was herself.

The mystery man chuckled, closed the ward door, and sat down next to Amber, "The assassination of

Jack in South Maine is true. But the assassination that made Jack leave and rushed inside your ward

was a fake."

"I did it to switch you away from Jack."

"And your purpose in doing so?"

Amber gritted her slightly purple lips and tried to control her sanity, "You have been deliberately and

secretly manipulating, putting on such a big show, even at the cost of human lives. Surely, you are not

just going to switch me away from Jack."

"How much are those people worth?"

The mystery man asked. The corners of his mouth curled and he sneered, "You are worth a lot more

than that several people."

As he spoke, the mystery man raised his hand and gently brushed a few strands of hair from Amber's

forehead behind her ear.

But his action made Amber instantly as if struck by lightning, and her scalp tingled.

"Ah!"

Amber let out a scream. All her sanity was washed away by fear at this moment. She bit her lip and

crimson blood seeped out, "Do you think you can fool my husband? Impossible, he will definitely find

out. No one can replace me by his side. Your plot will soon be seen by my husband!"

She cried frantically.

The mystery man was unconcerned.

He lifted his right hand and, with his right little thumb, gently cleared his ear.

Then he replied Amber's words casually.

But his tone was thick with disdain.

"What I want to do, even God can't stop me. If I couldn't hide it from him, how could he be sitting on a

flight with the woman who replaced you and your parents by now, and starting to go home?"

Boom!

Amber was completely confused.

In a flash, the mystery man's words seemed like the invisible hand that pressed her fiercely into the

abyss of despair and darkness.

"You have been in this ward for so long. Almost three days, and still on the same floor. Did Jack find

out? Or did your parents find out?"
