I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 616 - Rothschild Dynasty?

"Y-you already know everything?" Jack asked in disbelief. "But I've asked Erick and Nicholas to keep everything a secret from you, then how do you know about what happened two years ago when I was in the hospital recovering from my depression, Anne?"

Jack really couldn't believe that Anne knew that he had been so depressed that he had been in the hospital for months.

Anne smiled. She then sat cross-legged in front of Jack, who previously wanted to kneel to her. "Luis, it was Luis who told me everything. During my time in Aberdeen, Luis always messaged me via email, even though I didn't reply to any of his emails. Luis even sent pictures of you in the hospital. If it weren't for all that, there's no way I could forgive you that easily, Jack. How could I quickly agree to come with you to Switzerland?"

"But, you said at that time you were willing to go home with me because you saw me asking for Paul's help..."

"That's another plus point. My confidence in coming back to you increased when I saw that you didn't hesitate to kneel in front of Paul, especially after I knew that now Linda and Paul are already joining a pregnancy program with the best doctors in Luxembourg. And don't blame, Luis, he is just doing his job. I hope that everything that happened to us in the past will not happen again in the future. Please try to lessen your jealous nature. Trust me, I won't do anything wrong, Jack. If I wanted to have an affair, I would have done it a long time ago when you were pronounced dead in the English Channel, but I didn't, right? So please use your common sense, be the Jack I knew when we first met." Anne cut off Jack's words with a smile.

"We've been separated quite often, Anne, that's why I..."

"Even though we were separated many times by circumstances, but if God has decreed that we will be together, what can humans do?"

Jack looked at Anne with teary eyes, a warm feeling welling up in his chest. He really felt very happy now, all his fears were gone. It turned out that Anne really loved him.

"Come on, let's get up and take a shower, I'll be waiting downstairs for breakfast," said Anne quietly as she smoothed Jack's messy hair.

"But it's still too early for breakfast, honey, don't you want us to do something else?" Jack teased Anne with his mischievous smile.

Bam...

Anne smacked Jack in the chest furiously.

"Don't start again, I'm tired. It's been three nights you haven't let me go. Come on, don't mess around. Hurry up and take a shower, I'm already hungry. After breakfast, let's go to the maze, I want to play in the maze before heading back to Switzerland."

Jack nodded his head. "Okay princess, I will do everything you ask."

Anne chuckled. "What princess? Frog princess? Come on, let's get up."

Jack immediately got up from the floor and walked straight to the bathroom, while Anne chose to go to the walk-in closet to get dressed. Even though when Jack abducted her to Australia they didn't bring any clothes, but it turned out that Jack had prepared everything at their house. All of their necessities were readily available, from clothes to perfume to skin care that Anne usually wore on a daily basis. It seemed that Jack had prepared very well for their vacation this time and Anne loved all of them. She really felt privileged by Jack.

After finishing getting ready, Anne then rushed down to the first floor through the stairs instead of using the elevator. She felt healthier the more she moved. When arriving on the first floor, the maids had just finished putting the dishes on the dining table. Because Anne was so hungry, she chose to sit in her chair and immediately poured a glass of warm milk into her glass. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

"Would you like some pancakes too, Madam?" a chef asked Anne.

"No, just milk is enough. I'm waiting for my husband for breakfast," replied Anne with a smile.

"Very well, Madam, then I will excuse myself."

Anne nodded her head with a smile in response to the chef's words. She again drank the milk in her hand until it was gone. It's surprising that Anne liked fresh cow's milk like this, whereas previously Anne preferred almond milk and didn't really like cow's milk. Well, her tastes had changed drastically now. When she had just placed the glass on the table, Anne saw Albert come with a document in his hand.

"What have you brought, Albert?" asked Anne in a fairly loud voice, startling Albert who wanted to go up to the second floor.

Albert immediately stopped his steps and turned to the mistress who was looking at him full of smile from the dining table.

"These are the files from the mayor for Master, Madam."

Anne's curiosity suddenly aroused when Albert mentioned the word mayor. "The mayor? What's up with Jack and the mayor?"

"I-it's about the land dispute matter..."

"Give it to me, I want to read it." Anne, who was already standing in front of Albert, immediately stretched out her hand, asking for the files that Albert was carrying.

Albert was silent for a long while before he finally handed the file that was in his hand to the madam. Even though he had only known Anne for three days, for some reason, Albert felt more respectful to Anne than to his master.

Anne immediately sat on the sofa, looking for a comfortable position to read the files that Albert had brought. Anne's eyes narrowed when she read Leon's name in a few sentences. The name Leonardo Ganke was immediately read by Anne and it was enough to make her realize that her ex-husband was in trouble with Jack.

"What does Leonardo Ganke have to do with this piece of land, Albert?"

Albert glanced toward the stairs, hoping that Jack would appear. However, his hopes turned out to be far from reality, so Albert was forced to tell him everything he knew about Leonardo Ganke's relationship with Jack's company.

"Not just this once, Madam. This man named Leonardo Ganke has tried several times to damage the work that is being carried out by master, such as the resort project in South Korea, it was meddled by this man named Leonardo Ganke. The latest is the case of the land in this city, Madam. This man has asked his friend, Benjamin Calum, one of the heirs of the disputed land, for help to offer his land to Master's company to finance the construction of a hotel. However the land isn't officially Mr. Calum's, as it is still in dispute in the high court in Melbourne. That's why master has came to Australia to reconfirm whether this land is really still in dispute or not, because the project that Benjamin Calum offered to Muller Finance International is worth more than $500 million dollars, Madam," Albert said, quietly ending the explanation.

"Jesus, it's all money?"

Albert chuckled. "Yes Madam, that's why Master came straight to Melbourne to check it in person. Even though many people have informed him that this land has not yet been processed, he still came."

Anne took a deep breath. She still couldn't believe the number that Albert had mentioned. Not long after, Albert left Anne because he was contacted by one of his men from the farm. Anne herself chose to close the files she had previously read and put it back on the table. From those files, Anne also knew that Jack was really very rich. It wasn't just in Melbourne that he had a large house and farm like this one. It turns out that Jack also owns a farm and processing pure cow's milk which had a pretty big name in New Zealand.

Instantly, Anne had goosebumps. She now realized why Luis was so hard at protecting the heir of the Clarke family and asked her to return to Jack. It turned out that the late grandfather David really wanted an heir to be born from her womb to take care of all his wealth spread across several major countries in the world.

Anne's daydream was broken when she heard Jack's footsteps coming out of the elevator. Jack's warm smile made Anne realize how attractive her husband actually was.
