I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 607 - For The Sake Of Us
Chapter 607 - For The Sake Of 'Us'
Anne continued to massage her forehead which was aching at this time. Indeed, bringing along Jack to the hospital to see Charlotte was a big mistake. Anne really felt bad for Chester at Jack's last words. Luckily, after Jack said his last sentence, Chester's parents came in, so that the awkward situation didn't last long. After making a brief introduction to Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd, they said goodbye to go home. Anne felt really bad for Chester.
"Are you sick, babe?" Jack asked worriedly when he realized that Anne had been holding her forehead since she left the hospital.
Anne lowered her hand from her forehead and looked straight at Jack intently.
"What's wrong?" Jack asked again, confused.
Anne took a deep breath. She then touched the driver's seat sitting in front of her. "Please stop the car. I need some fresh air."
"Yes Ma'am." ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢
One minute later, the car that Jack and Anne was riding in began to pull over until it finally came to a complete stop. As soon as the car stopped, Anne then quickly opened the door on her right and got out of the car, which was immediately followed by Jack.
"What are you doing? Why do you suddenly want to get out of the car like this?"
Anne, who was looking up at the sky, didn't respond to Jack's words. She still wanted to fill her chest with really fresh oxygen at this time.
"Babe, are you mad at me?" Jack asked again, curiously. He didn't like being ignored by Anne like that. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
Slowly Anne turned to Jack who had been standing in his position with his arms crossed over his chest. "I'm not angry. After all, it's useless for me to be angry at you."
"Why is that?"
"Don't you realize you've done something wrong?" asked Anne, trying not to get emotional.
Jack frowned. "No, what have I done? Haven't I been with you all along?"
"That's it, you don't realize what you did wrong Jack. It doesn't need to be discussed anymore, I don't want to fight with you," said Anne quietly as she walked back to the car.
However, Anne's steps were stopped by Jack, who immediately blocked Anne's way by standing suddenly in front of his wife.
"Jack..."
"So you think what I said to Chester was wrong? Do you think it was wrong for me to stop Chester from contacting you? Was it wrong for me to tell the man to remarry immediately and not contact my wife? Is that wrong in your opinion?"
Anne was silent. She could not speak. It turned out that Jack knew what was upsetting her.
"Chester Lloyd is a normal grown man who has recently lost his wife who committed suicide. Of course I strictly forbid him to contact you again. I do believe in you, but I have doubts in that man. After all, he's a normal man with a dilemma, because he just experienced a painful event in his life. Can anyone guarantee that if you keep in touch with Chester Lloyd and then he doesn't develop any feelings for you? No one can guarantee that it won't happen, Anne. And what I did earlier was to protect my household, protect my marriage so that it stays happy from other men's interference like that. I'd rather receive your anger now than to have regrets later on when Chester started disturbing our marriage even further. Didn't I say from the start that I can't lose you, I love you so much, Anne, and I will do anything to protect our marriage, including limiting your friendship with Chester. If you want to be angry with me, just go ahead, I'm not forbidding. What's clear is that I won't change my mind, you still can't see him again for any reason, let alone a reason that has to do with that child. Even though he had a family that could take care of his daughter, he still had parents he could turn to for help taking care of Charlotte. You're just an outsider, who has nothing to do with him, Anne. You don't have any obligation to see them again for humanitarian reasons or whatever. If you really want to help on a humanitarian basis, it's better to go to an orphanage and give love to less fortunate children, I will support you 100%, but if you go to Chester to take care of Charlotte, I don't agree. Forgive my selfishness, but this is my way to protect our families, to maintain the integrity of our family, "Jack said at length, pouring out all his heart's content.
Anne was silent. She did not respond to the words of Jack. She was still digesting word by word that Jack said just now.
"If Chester was a nice guy, a man with manners, he should never have sent that message to you, Anne, for whatever reason. Do you know why? Because you're a woman who already has a husband and child. If he could think that far, he wouldn't have sent a message to you just to inform you of her daughter who is being taken to the hospital. From the start, Chester didn't respect me as your husband, because if he respected me as your husband, then he wouldn't send you a message like that. From the very beginning, he had already beat war drums on me, Anne, so if I had behaved like that to him, it was a natural thing that I should have done. If you feel that what I'm doing is wrong, I'm not forbidding you, what's clear is that I'm not someone who can just sit around watching a bully appear and… and I'm sorry, I really didn't know that Giselle had other intentions when she accepted my job offer. Really for God's sake, Anne, I only love you. There is not the slightest gap in my heart for another woman to fill, especially for Giselle, whom I've consider a good friend. Since I was in school, I was the one who always protected Giselle when she was being bullied by the other friends, so I really only thought of her as a friend and nothing more. My one stupidity is that I didn't realize and didn't know that Giselle liked me, so I keep letting her be by my side for the past two years to be my secretary. I can't possibly think of another woman when my brain and heart are only filled with your name, Anne."
Anne was speechless. She really didn't expect Jack to talk to her like that.
Without Anne expecting it, Jack suddenly grabbed her body and landed a kiss on her forehead lovingly for a long time.
"If you still want to calm down, I won't bother. It seems I have to go back to office. I have to solve the problem that Benjamin Calum and that damn lion have made," said Jack again with a smile. After saying that, Jack then let go of his arms on Anne's body and prepared to leave that place.
But he only took four steps suddenly when Jack's steps stopped because Anne hugged him from behind. "Anne..."
"I'm sorry, Jack..."
