Winner Takes All Chapter 714
Austin's eyes gradually reddened.It was only after visiting the Campbell residence that he truly understood how complex the Campbells were.It was no exaggeration to say that Walter had done his utmost to protect him and Dahlia back then.The scene in the council hall replayed in his mind. Those people had dared to shout about killing Austin right in front of Walter. It must have been even worse when Walter was just an heir.It was no wonder that after Walter became the head of the Campbells, he had never given Dahlia the recognition she deserved.It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he simply couldn't due to the immense pressure.Austin and Dahlia had spent over 20 years together, and he had worked tirelessly to give Dahlia the honor she deserved, as Ezra had said when they first met."Mom, in a year, I will return the honor you've missed for over 20 years."Austin bowed slowly as if making a vow. "I will bring you back to the Campbell ancestral hall and make everyone in the

Austin's mind exploded with a loud "boom."In an instant, he was dazed.A little Austin...His emotions surged, his eyes reddened, and his nose tingled with overwhelming emotion.This scene startled Cecily, who cupped Austin's face. "Honey, what's wrong?""Say it again!" Austin murmured."Honey, what's wrong?" Cecily repeated, puzzled."No, the previous sentence!" Austin shook his head vigorously.Cecily said, "Honey, we're going to have a little Austin.""Hahaha..."Austin burst into laughter, all his emotions pouring out like a flood after a brief delay. "I'm going to be a father! I'm going to be a father!"Seeing Austin's joy, Cecily also smiled sweetly.Overcome with excitement, Austin jumped out of bed, turned around, and lifted Cecily in a princess carry. He planted a firm kiss on her forehead and spun her around, laughing joyously.Cecily was immediately frightened, her face turning pale. "Oh no, put me down. I'm pregnant.""Right, right, you're pregnant, you're pr

"Of course, it's because he's happy," Cecily said with a playful smile.Austin rubbed his nose, his gaze deep and tender as he looked at Cecily. "Thank you for bringing our little angel into the world."……While Bamboo Parlor was engulfed in celebration, elsewhere in a dimly lit hotel room.Snap!A dim flame flickered to life, igniting a cigar and sending up a trail of smoke.The cigar's tip glowed brightly as Alexander took a deep drag, savoring the smoke as it filled his mouth before exhaling with satisfaction.He looked at the computer in front of him.The only light in the room came from the screen, casting a faint glow.The screen displayed a stark image—the dark web homepage."It's been a long time since I logged into this account," Alexander said, taking another deep drag from his cigar. As the smoke drifted from his lips, he stared at the dark web page, lost in thought.After a while, with half the cigar gone, he finally placed it between his lips and slowly raised h

The Shadow Web Syndicate had a rule, the first on the Death List was crowned with the title "Grim Reaper."This title was supposed to be won through competition, but with the emergence of that man, it became his exclusive domain.And so it remained for over 20 years!Despite countless challengers, no one ever managed to dethrone the "Grim Reaper."He was the legend in the Shadow Web Syndicate and the entire dark web.His sudden disappearance over two decades ago shocked everyone.

Glancing at the remaining third of his cigar, Alexander extinguished it in the ashtray.Stretching with a smile, he said, "Austin, this is one of the few things I can help you with. The rest of the path, you'll have to walk on your own. The Campbells aren't as simple as you think. Even your father probably finds it tough at times."Rubbing his face, Alexander's expression returned to its usual sternness. "It's about time I headed back to Grave Prison. Otherwise, those little brats will start causing trouble again."His casual words carried an undeniable confidence that seemed insurmountable.……The next morning, sunlight bathed the earth, bringing new life.Everything appeared as usual.Light and darkness might not coexist, but that didn't mean the dark web's upheaval wouldn't ripple into the realm of light.At the Emerson Residence in the capital.Terry woke up as usual, donned his robe, and stood revitalized in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, taking in the entire Emers

"Ugh!"Overcome with rage, Terry suddenly threw his head back and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.Bang!Hearing the commotion, the middle-aged man outside, Scott, kicked open the door.Seeing Terry vomiting blood, Scott rushed over in a panic to support him. "Terry, calm down. You're hurting yourself with all this anger."Terry's pale face was full of despair."How can I not be furious with the Shadow Web Syndicate's actions? What is going on?"Scott quickly explained, "Last night, a huge piece of news broke on the dark web, causing an uproar that still hasn't settled."His expression grew more fearful."Apparently, the Grim Reaper, who holds the top spot on the Shadow Web Syndicate's Death List, has returned. He bypassed them to impose his will, shocking the entire dark web and forcing them to cancel the assassination order on Austin."Terry's body shook, his face contorting in rage once again.He wasn't very familiar with the dark web.In fact

In his anguished roar, Terry's body convulsed again.Blood poured from his mouth as he went limp, unable to stay upright in the chair, and slid to the floor."Terry!" Scott was terrified, his fear palpable."Revenge, I… I must get revenge! The Emersons and Austin...will never coexist!"With a mournful howl, Terry's eyes rolled back, and he passed out.Scott collapsed to the floor in shock, feeling a profound sense of despair.The arrival of the Grim Reaper canceled the assassination order on Austin and caused the Shadow Web Syndicate to confiscate the Emersons' 10 billion dollars.Calling it a disastrous loss doesn't even begin to describe this calamity.He knew the Emersons would face an enormous nightmare without their 10 billion dollars and no result to show for it.In his fear and hopelessness, Scott also felt a pang of regret.How much better would it have been if the Emersons had never posted that assassination order on the Shadow Web Syndicate?Even in decline, the Em

When he left the Campbell residence, Walter had told Austin about the possibility.But Austin never expected the cancellation to come so quickly!In just one night, the storm had calmed.For almost a month, the Shadow Web Syndicate's assassination order had hung over him like a sword, making it impossible for him to find peace, leaving him constantly anxious.Now, finally, the clouds had parted to reveal a clear sky.Overwhelmed with joy, Austin's eyes began to sparkle.He took a deep breath, the first truly deep breath he'd taken in nearly a month.Then, he let out a relieved smile. "How did the Shadow Web Syndicate cancel the order?"Just like that?!Ezra, Aldus, and Raquel were stunned.Austin's reaction was far too calm.For nearly a month, they had all been living under the shadow of the assassination threat, their nerves stretched to the limit.They had expected Austin to jump with joy upon hearing the news.But now..."What's wrong?" Austin asked, puzzled, as he lo

Austin never expected that Nancy would come back.As he returned to the Tetra Club, he remained sullen, his eyes dark with unresolved anger.Seeing Austin like this, Cecily felt a pang of sadness.She gently tried to comfort him, "It's all in the past now, isn't it? I'm here with you, and we have our baby on the way.""I can't just let it go," Austin shook his head."The best I can do is not seek revenge against them, but to truly forgive and forget—I can't do that."The actions of Nancy's family were still fresh in his memory.Austin wasn't someone who sought revenge for every slight, but he was far from the kind of person who could simply forgive and forget, moving on with a carefree "Hallelujah."Dahlia's despair as she lay in bed, the arrogance and cruelty of the Welch family…In the eyes of the Welch family, Dahlia's life wasn't worth as much as Harvey's wedding.Even when the time had passed and he was about to finally be happy with Cecily, the Welch family not only dem

After leaving this city, Nancy put in a tremendous amount of effort to "rebirth" herself.Meeting Ethan had shown her a different side of life.While he wasn't part of the uppermost echelons of wealth and power, he had enough. Most importantly, he treated her with the utmost respect.She understood Ethan's background, which made that respect all the more valuable.A man of his stature could have any woman he wanted in his bed the same night.Yet Ethan had shown her incredible patience, making her question whether the rumors about him were true.Tonight, returning to this city was her way of bidding farewell to the past and embracing the future.After all, people need to look forward, don't they?Meanwhile, Ethan was feeling more dejected than he'd ever been.Lying in his luxurious bed in Brook Villa, he couldn't sleep, tossing and turning restlessly.He had hoped to establish a connection with Austin. A figure like him would be incredibly valuable to have on his side.He tho

The river breeze was cool, and the lights reflected on the water flickered softly.The figure in front of them wore a long black coat, standing quietly by the railing. Her fair, delicate profile, partially obscured by a few strands of windblown hair, carried a hint of melancholy."Sir, Mrs. Campbell, is something wrong?" Aldus noticed the change and quickly stepped forward to inquire."Let's go home," Austin suddenly said, his previously cheerful expression now somber, with a touch of disdain.Go home? They had just arrived.Aldus was surprised and quickly followed Austin's gaze. When he saw what Austin was looking at, he immediately understood.Without a word, he turned to leave with Austin.But a soft hand gently grabbed Austin's arm."It's been so many years, aren't you going to say hello?" Cecily asked."I have no desire to greet her," Austin said, his disdain clear and unhidden.Three years of marriage, filled with nothing but pain.Even when Dahlia was gravely ill, Nan

After a busy day, just as Austin was about to finish up, a new invitation appeared on his desk."Who delivered this?" Austin asked."Ethan," Wolf replied.Austin chuckled, didn't bother opening the invitation, and instead tossed it directly into the trash."I've got to get home to Cecily."When he returned to the Bamboo Parlor at Tetra Club, Raquel had already prepared a delicious dinner.The dishes were beautifully presented, with vibrant colors and enticing aromas.After dinner, Austin and Ezra stepped out into the courtyard."Mr. Lockwood, any news from the Campbells about my dad?" Austin asked, the text message from Walter still weighing heavily on his mind.Considering the Campbells' efforts to find Walter, and given their intelligence resources, they should have been some leads by now.But Ezra shook his head. "Nothing, Not a trace.""The Campbells' intelligence network has never been this weak, has it?" Austin frowned, speaking in a low tone.Ezra gave a wry smile. "

"Childhood?"Austin stopped his workout, wiped the sweat from his face, and smiled bitterly.His childhood had been bleak.Only Dahlia had brought some light into the darkness.Seeing Austin's pained smile, Aldus immediately realized his mistake.He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Sir. I spoke without thinking. You don't need to answer that.""It's fine," Austin replied, gesturing towards a nearby bench, and inviting Aldus to sit with him.Once they were seated, Austin slowly began to speak. "There's not much to tell about my childhood. It was mostly just being called an 'illegitimate child' and living day to day, never knowing where my next meal would come from."If it weren't for my mom fighting tooth and nail to raise me, I'd probably be dead by now."With just a few simple words, he conveyed a world of suffering.Aldus felt a wave of guilt. He had only been trying to find clues from Austin's past that might explain his exceptional combat instincts and incredible physical

Austin's gaze softened as warmth flooded his heart.Who hasn't longed for a light left on just for them in a sea of lights? But in reality, how many actually have that?Cecily did that for him.Given her background, the fact that she went to such lengths truly surprised Austin.In the three years he spent in the past, he had never experienced something like this.His nose tingled with emotion as he pulled Cecily into his arms, speaking softly, "Thank you. Marrying you is the greatest fortune of my life.""Alright, alright, I asked Raquel to prepare breakfast earlier this morning. You go to the dining room, and I'll have her bring it over," Cecily said as she gently slipped out of Austin's embrace, her graceful smile lighting up her eyes."Doesn't Bamboo Parlor have a kitchen?" Austin asked, curious.Cecily gave him a playful look. "The chairs in the living room are so hard, and you spent the whole night on one—how could you have slept well? If Raquel had been clattering around

The room fell into a heavy silence."Deactivating the phone number… was Dad trying to prevent me from tracking his location?" Austin murmured with a frown.Ezra pondered for a moment, his voice low and serious. "Perhaps he was more concerned about someone else tracking him."Austin's eyes widened in realization.Of course—if Walter could send him a message to let him know he was safe, he wouldn't be worried about Austin tracking himDeactivating the phone was likely to prevent others from tracing his location."But who is he trying to avoid?"Ezra shook his head, remaining silent.Having followed Walter for many years, he knew the man's temperament and habits. But this time, he was truly baffled.He couldn't even begin to piece together a clue.Taking a deep breath, Ezra forced a bitter smile. "I'm afraid I'm at a loss this time, sir. There's no sign of anything unusual from the Campbells either."This statement only deepened Austin's confusion.If there were anyone who cou

Austin knocked softly on the door.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of shuffling from inside.Ezra opened the door, his face full of curiosity. "Sir, what's going on?"Austin quickly made a shushing gesture, worried about disturbing Cecily.Then he gently pushed Ezra back into the room."Sorry to bother you so late, Mr. Lockwood," Austin said.Ezra smiled. "It's no trouble at all. The older you get, the less you need. I was just reading."Austin glanced at the book on Ezra's bedside table and couldn't help but feel a bit exasperated.This old rascal!Ezra blushed and quickly shoved the book under his pillow.Austin sat on the bed and pulled up the text message from Walter, showing it to Ezra."I just received this message."When Ezra read the text, his eyes lit up with a sharp gleam, and he was overjoyed. "This is from Mr. Walter!"Austin nodded, his expression serious. "But I've sent several messages back, and there's been no reply. I called twice—once it was immedi

But if he refused to lower his head, he would end up a dead man.He understood the situation perfectly.In fact, that very night, a message was released from Brook Villa.No one is to compete for the land!This is a clear warning to all real estate companies in Eastbrook. It was also a gesture of goodwill toward Austin.But Austin didn't pay it much mind.If not for Derrick's involvement, he had no idea how Ethan would have responded—but Austin knew his response would have been much tougher.A mere city's underground king?
