Winner Takes All Chapter 554
The skies above the Redmont Residence were covered with dark and gloomy clouds as the deadline drew closer.All of the Redmonts started to panic over the incoming deadline.Constant shouting had been coming from Morgan's room since early in the morning.Even the children who did not know much could feel that something big was about to happen.Morgan as the head of the Redmonts was the backbone of the entire family. And now, the backbone himself was trembling with fear.The other seniors within the family were even more depressed and anxious than Morgan himself.What happened during the birthday banquet still lingered in everyone's minds like an unending nightmare.They all knew that Austin was out for their blood, and Morgan's reaction to it all had left everyone desperate.Inside the gloomy and dark room, Morgan was visibly exhausted as he had barely slept for the past three days.He had never gone through such an embarrassing birthday week in his entire life.Morgan had alr

Morgan seemed as if he had just been struck by lightning.The call was hung up from the other end, leaving only the cold and unforgiving beeps ringing in his ear.Morgan never put down the phone. He just stood there.Amadeus realized that something wasn't right. "Dad?"The next moment, Morgan's body trembled as the phone dropped onto the floor.His bloodshot eyes were now filled with tears.His face was pale white as he pursed his lips and slowly lowered himself onto the floor.Morgan started to cry.The scene in front of Amadeus only terrified him even further. "Say something, Dad! What happened? Don't scare me like this!"Morgan had always been a stubborn yet steady father figure ever since he started remembering things. Amadeus had never once witnessed his father having such a childlike side.News about the dignified Morgan crying like a baby being widespread would definitely shock the entire Basin City.Morgan glared at Amadeus through teary eyes and shouted, "Get out!

The rest of the siblings spoke up as well. "Dad, you're not really…"They had ample reason to be panicking right now.Back during the birthday banquet, Austin had once mentioned Morgan paying with his own life to ask for Dahlia's forgiveness.They realized that their father had no reason to look for his favorite blade if they were supposed to fight back against Austin."Go and get it!" shouted Morgan."No, Amadeus! We can't possibly stoop so low!""That's right! Worst case scenario would just be a fight to the death! We can't let Dad do this!""You don't have to do this, Dad. Austin may be Walter's son, but we're still the richest family in Basin City! Why are we so afraid of them, anyway?"The Redmonts had never felt so powerless even when they first started building up their empire.Their reputation and ego as the elite could never allow themselves to stoop so low as to beg for forgiveness.Begging for forgiveness was supposed to be something others asked for from the Redmo

The Basin Mountains Villa was lit up majestically.As an art museum, it had been used to hold all sorts of art exhibitions within Basin City.Even the lights during nighttime were extremely beautiful.On the balcony, Austin, Vincent, and Aldus sat around a small table as they enjoyed the beautiful nighttime scenery. Vincent suddenly smiled and broke the silence. "It sure is chilly tonight.""Are you sure they're coming?" asked Aldus.Vincent then turned around and smiled at Austin.Austin himself was not certain if the Redmonts would come as well.All he could do now was wait after he had already given them extremely "generous" terms.Either Morgan sacrificed himself alone for forgiveness, or the entire Redmont family would have to take the fall for him.It was a question with an extremely easy answer for an old man.Austin would not have bothered with such an offer if not to minimize spilling unnecessary blood.Dahlia was everything to Austin.And the Redmonts had taken

Austin seemed to have flipped a switch and turned into a terrifying person overall.Even Aldus and Vincent behind him were left speechless.The two of them looked at each other and noticed the horror and surprise in each other's eyes.They both agreed that Austin had truly changed.Morgan stood up and greeted him. "Mr. Campbell."Austin ignored him and sat down on the largest seat before looking down at Morgan and Amadeus.He eventually noticed the blade held in Morgan's arms. "I see that you've already prepared the tools. You can finish the job whenever you like."Murderous intent filled the entire room in an instant.The short and concise order did not even allow for Austin's prey to talk back against him.Both Morgan and Amadeus were also shocked. They had anticipated the worst, but they did not expect Austin to be so direct.Austin had just ordered the head of the Redmonts to kill himself after all.Amadeus tried to speak up. "Mr. Campbell—"Austin glanced at him once,

Austin's disdainful tone was nothing short of arrogance.Morgan could not help but feel suffocated.Amadeus from the side was extremely furious. "What else do you want, Austin? You've already humiliated us more than enough! Are you trying to kick us while we're already down?"Austin turned around and stared straight at Amadeus. "Yes, I am. Why else would I bother? Have you considered that when you tried to plot to murder me, you killed my mother instead?"You—"The living room fell eerily quiet.Morgan glared at Amadeus as he opened his mouth. "What do you want, Mr. Campbell?""I want ownership of half of all shares belonging to the Redmonts!"Both Morgan and Amadeus were left dumbfounded.The Redmonts only managed to reach their current status thanks to the countless number of businesses under their name.And now, Austin had declared that he wanted half of everything the Redmonts had built throughout their history.It was still a huge amount of money even if it was just hal

"I'll take you up on your 'offer', Mr. Campbell…" Morgan looked up at Austin with great determination. "...So can I go now?""Let me give you a push!" shouted Austin.Within the brightly lit living room.A flash of cold steel could be seen coming from the blade placed on Morgan's neck.The next second, blood began to spew all across the room in all directions.Amadeus, who had been crying, immediately stopped. All he could do now was stare in disbelief as his own father's blood dropped on his face.The heavy stench of blood entered his nostrils. He did not even dare to look up as he tried to wipe his face with his right hand. And yet, all he could see was still the color red.Amadeus started screaming out in agony as his mind went completely blank.Morgan fell down onto his own pool of blood, and he would no longer move a muscle ever again.Meanwhile, Austin had the blade in his hand, with the tip pointing onto the floor. Blood flowed along the blade all the way to the tip bef

The sun shone upon the earth by the next morning.It revealed the desolate and depressing Redmont residence.Even though it was the dawn of a new day, everyone in the Redmont family could not feel even a tinge of warmth in their bodies.Massive changes had just happened to the Redmont family overnight.Amadeus carried Morgan's corpse back home. It was as if he were delivering an atomic bomb into the Redmont residence itself.Nobody could sleep all night long as there were loud wails echoed throughout the Redmont residence.It was just three days ago when Morgan had celebrated his own birthday.Nobody could have expected him to be reduced to a cold corpse lying in his own coffin just three days later.It was an apocalypse for the Redmonts.Not a single soul within the Redmont family could have expected their powerful family to be met with such a sudden turn of events for the worse.As the Redmonts cried out for their loss, the rest of Basin City was in an uproar.The other po
