Winner Takes All Chapter 241
Austin endured the searing pain coming from his wound.He leaned against the seat, taking deep breaths with all his might. Still, he couldn't hide his pain.In a trembling voice, he smiled and said, "Since she wants to hold me responsible, if I appear before her looking all fine and dandy, I'll get more blame, won't I?"Ezra's expression froze.In an instant, he felt as if something was stuck in his chest, and a terrible feeling filled his heart.From how he saw it, Austin had done this out of desperation. That was why Austin purposely wanted to show Dorothy how badly he was wounded.If Mason was the one who got hurt, he definitely wouldn't do something like that.In the Campbell family, Mason was Dorothy's darling grandson. If he got hurt, he just had to kneel in front of her and let out a few cries of pain. Then, Dorothy would want to seek justice for him.As for Austin, he had to open his wound that was almost healing just so that Dorothy would go easy on him!They were bot

Every time Austin moved, it would cause intense pain in his wound. So, Austin looked extremely haggard.They didn't walk far before a small courtyard appeared before them.The courtyard was plain and simple. It didn't fit in with the rest of Tetra Club."Mrs. Campbell Senior, Mr. Austin is here to see you."Stepping forward, Ezra raised his voice a little as he shouted."Come in."A voice rang out from within the small courtyard.With Ezra and Aldus supporting him, Austin awkwardly covered his wound as he walked into the courtyard.As they walked, Ezra reminded Austin in a low voice, "Sir, bear with it as much as you can."Austin smiled bitterly.His gaze flickered, and his right hand subconsciously pressed harder against the wound on his abdomen.If he didn't know that, he wouldn't have opened up his wound that was just about to heal.As they slowly walked out of the darkness, Austin was very sure that sometimes, bowing his head appropriately would help him soar to greater

Austin's cold voice resounded in the main hall.In an instant, the air seemed to freeze.The middle-aged man with his hair graying at the sides widened his eyes in utter shock.Ezra and Aldus were so terrified that their faces turned pale.Ezra hastily said to Austin, "Sir, please mind your manners!"With that, he hastily explained to Dorothy, "Mrs. Campbell Senior, I'm apologizing to you on Mr. Austin's behalf. Please forgive him.""Hah!"Dorothy scoffed. She didn't even spare a glance at Ezra on the floor. Instead, she met Austin's gaze and slowly narrowed her eyes.Throughout the process, other than endless coldness, there were no emotions on Austin's face at all.As he faced off with Dorothy, he didn't even flinch in the slightest.When he had just entered the main hall, he had already realized that Dorothy was reciting the prayers for the dead.But he thought that he came here with charges and accusations, and he was here to beg Dorothy to have mercy on him. So, he endu

Austin had let out a heavy breath. A smile appeared on his cold face as he said, "Alright, I'll kneel!"Right after that, he endured the searing pain in his abdomen as he slowly kneeled.At that moment, time seemed to have slowed down.Austin's pale face was all smiles, but his eyes shimmered.He subconsciously clenched his fists tightly, and his veins throbbed.He even gritted his teeth so hard that they creaked.This was humiliation!This was the humiliation he received for coming from a background inferior to Mason's.Even if he refused to bow and kneel, he had no choice but to do it.If he kneeled, he might still have the chance to be the victor.If he didn't kneel, only a loser's ending awaited him, or something even worse.When Austin's knees hit the floor, his heart shuddered violently.At that moment, Austin was a little dazed, and his mind turned blank for a moment."I thought that you're resilient and stubborn, but what a surprise! You're actually capable of knee

Ezra and Aldus felt like they were struck by lightning, and they were in extreme fear.Ezra was tearing up, and his face was filled with despair.Everything would be ruined now!"You…"Dorothy was furious.She thought, "How dare a mutt treat me like that? How ridiculous!"She held a position above everything else in the Campbell family, which had control over the world's wealth. Even the head of the family had to treat her with respect.To her, even if Austin was the biological son of the head of the family, if she was in a good mood, she might still call Austin a mutt. But if she was in a bad mood, Austin meant nothing to her.He would be even less than a mutt!However, Austin took a step forward. At that moment, he had an intimidating and arrogant air about him."I respect you because you're the old lady of the Campbell family. But if I don't feel like respecting you, you're nothing to me!"When Dorothy heard his shocking words, her expression shifted.Despite her decent

Both Mason and Taylor were elites of the family, and they had undergone systematic combat training. But even they couldn't win against Austin, so Dorothy wouldn't expect the middle-aged man beside her to be capable of protecting her.Moreover, she didn't doubt Austin's words at all.There was nothing a fool wouldn't do.Time seemed to have come to a standstill in the main hall.They were in a complete deadlock now.Ezra's and Aldus' minds had already turned blank, and they felt like the sky was falling.Meanwhile, throughout the process, the middle-aged man with graying hair never expressed his views. He simply watched from the sidelines.Austin and Dorothy faced off with each other, and neither of them would take a step back.If word of this scene got out, it would have shocked the whole world.The Campbell family was the superior family in hiding which reigned above everything else!Even legendary warriors, the wealthy, and the powerful had to submit to the Campbells.But

Walter's voice resounded in the main hall.His voice was abnormally calm. However, he exuded an air of disdain and intimidation, silencing any objections.Only the head of the Campbell family could possibly carry himself like this!Dorothy's face went pale. Her skinny body trembled ever so slightly as she gritted her teeth.Walter was the head of the family, but he was also younger than her.It was rude for someone of a younger generation to talk back to an elder like her.Now, she couldn't back out of this predicament gracefully, and she was also utterly shamed.Ezra and Aldus were elated. With reddened eyes, they gazed at the figure behind the fence.Judging by what Walter said, he was obviously intent on defending Austin!Even the middle-aged man with graying hair looked surprised at that moment.Austin was stunned.For some reason, he felt a tingle in his nose.He didn't expect his father, whom he had never met before, to be this fierce."Walter, is this how you speak

Walter's words were shocking like a sudden clap of thunder.Austin had a shocked look on his face, and waves of emotion surged in his heart.Walter was merciless!Austin was startled at how fierce his dad was.When Walter said those words, he had made it clear that he would kill Dorothy if he had to!He had completely ignored the rules governing the Campbell family!In an instant, everyone was stunned.No one had expected Walter to say such domineering words."I—" Dorothy tried to rein in her anger as her chest heaved violently.But before she could finish speaking, Walter's voice rang out. "Aunt Dorothy, we're not that close! If you had abided by the results of the discussion back home, I would still give you proper respect. If you still refuse to back down, I'll be the first to put flowers on your grave!"Dorothy was consumed by rage, and she glared at Walter in fury as she slammed her palm on the table. She began shouting at the top of her lungs."Very well, Walter! As ex
