Winner Takes All

The fresh red blood was frightening.

"Brother!"

Amanda was astounded. She dropped the food and water in her hand and hugged her brother immediately.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? You don't scare Amanda..."

Amanda leapt into the boy's arms and wailed as she raised her hand to wipe the blood on his mouth.

However, the blood kept gushing out of the boy's mouth no matter how she wiped it.

Jack was dumbfounded.

He leaned against the wall and he still offered his hand to hold the boy's body even though his body was extremely weak at this moment.

Just because he knew that if he did not hold the boy, the boy might collapse directly.

But with this support, his fingers touched the back of the boy. Instead of feeling cold, he felt a sense of warmth and moisture.

Jack frowned as the warm moisture from his hand was like a sharp knife stabbing into his heart mercilessly.

"Boohoo...brother, brother..."

In the alley, Amanda's heart-breaking sobs echoed sorrowfully and she was tearful.

She had just experienced the destruction of her village and the tragic death of her parents.

Now, she and her brother had just escaped. His brother was already in such a state before they could rely on each other. This was indeed a terrible disaster for a young child! The boy leaned against the wall and his chest was rising as he took a deep breath in.

Looking at Amanda who was crying in front of him, the boy smiled and whimpered, "Amanda...doesn't cry. Didn't brother teach you that before?"

His mouth was filled with some blood, so his voice was slightly unclear.

While speaking, the boy slowly raised his right hand and stroked it on Amanda's face.

But at this moment, he seemed to use up all his energy to raise his right hand slowly and heavily.

Amanda quickly raised her brother's hand and put it on her own face.

"I want my brother, boohoo...I want my brother..."

Her lips trembled and her cries resounded.

At this moment, Amanda freaked out completely.

However, her hands were clenching the boy's right hand, not willing to let go of it for a single moment.

"Amanda has already lost her parents. Amanda can't lose her brother anymore..."

The boy was smiling, but the blood kept flowing out of his mouth.

The thumb of the right hand was gently wiping off the tears on Amanda's face. There was a strong sense of heartbroken and affection in his eyes. Immediately after that, he took a glance at Jack.

"These things, I... robbed them. I have no other way but to rob them."

These words were answering Jack's question just now.

But then, the boy sneered, "This damn world, it doesn't even give me a chance to live...I hate it so much..."

He was nearly gritting his teeth.

It was even if the voice was slightly unclear due to the blood in his mouth.

However, Jack still heard the strong hatred in it.

Of course, how could anybody don't hate it?This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

A ten-year-old child should enjoy their bright youth.

Nevertheless, he was experiencing the destruction of his village, the death of his parents and being sold to slavery. He even survived for his sister and was willing...to sacrifice his life. Before he had the time to take a close look at this world, he already needed to return to where he had come from.

Just as Jack was shocked, a blood-stained hand landed on the back of his hand.

He lowered his head and looked at the boy's left hand. He saw that the boy was still holding the biscuit that was stained with red blood.

It was then.

The boy slowly passed the blood-stained biscuit into Jack's hand and pleaded Jack.

"Your life was saved by my sister. Please...don't, don't leave her behind. Bring her and take care of her..."

Jack trembled as his heart pounded violently. He held the blood-stained biscuit tightly while grabbing the boy's hand.

"I, I will take you to see the doctor. You will be fine..."

Jack tried to support the boy while speaking.

However, he was severely injured. Moreover, he did not even have the energy to assist the boy as he was exhausted, cold and hungry.

The boy did not bother anyway.

His gaze fell back on Amanda.

Reluctant, doting and heartbroken.

Blood kept flowing out from his mouth, yet he still said slowly, "Amanda, don't cry, be determined...and put away your kindness. Kind people will be harmed in this damn world. This is the snowfield, not the fairy-tale land that father and mother said."

At this moment, the boy suddenly spoke faster and he was no longer whimpering as he had been just then.

Even his pale face became flushed red.

Amanda was crying and clutching the boy's right hand, she wailed, "Brother..."

"Follow Jack, follow him and survive. Even if being a slave or a stray dog, you must still survive. Brother, father and mother together... will protect you in heaven!"

It was while speaking.

The boy slowly raised his head and his face was full of blood. But at this moment, he showed an unprecedented smile in relief.

"Father, mother, I...am coming to see you!"

It was when he finished uttering.

The boy's chest rose violently as he gasped for the last deep breath.

It was almost the same time.

The boy closed his eyes and tears flowed down from his eyes.

However, Jack could clearly feel that the boy's left hand, which was held in his hand, was...completely relieved at this moment!

Boom!

It was at this moment.

It was as if a thunderbolt had struck down on both Jack and Amanda.

"Brother..."

Amanda completely collapsed and she directly leapt onto the boy's body. She shook the boy's body desperately and cried, "Brother, wake up, brother, Amanda is afraid. Brother...don't sleep, please don't sleep...boohoo..."

The cries echoed and pierced straight into the heart.

Jack was dumbfounded as he stared at the scene in front of him. At this moment, his chest seemed to be filled and blocked with stones.

His vision gradually became blurred and the heart-breaking cries echoed in his ears. He was in sorrow and pain.

It was under the night.

The scene in the alley was a stark contrast to the shameless and enjoyable vibe outside.

"Please save my brother, save my brother..."

Amanda suddenly grasped Jack as she was grabbing a life-saving straw. She knelt on the ground and begged, "Brother is asleep, brother is asleep. Help me wake him up, Amanda...is afraid..." The pain, fear and cries were like sharp knives stabbing onto Jack's body mercilessly as if to torture him.

Jack's gaze flickered for a moment and he said, "Amanda is not afraid. I'm with you in the future. Brother is too tired, let him sleep."

After he finished speaking, Amanda was startled for a while.

It was in the next second.

She leapt into Jack's arms and bawled, "Amanda...doesn't have a brother anymore."

Jack hugged Amanda and caressed her back gently.

He did not know how to comfort her.

However, he was clear that giving Amanda a supportive hug would be better than anything else at this moment.

The boy was right, he would probably have frozen to death by now without Amanda's help. Also, he would simply have been left on the snowfield by slavery convoy like a dead dog and buried deep under the

snow.

"Hurry up, the sound is coming from this way! Damn bastard, he has robbed our things. We must kill him and throw him out to feed the wolves!"

Suddenly, a fierce scolding voice came from the alley outside.[]
