I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 86 - Park Place Villas

After being satisfied playing on the beach, Anne returned home with Jack. She felt so much better than before. She had even forgiven herself so that she would not keep all the sadness for what she had experienced several years ago because of what those evil people did to her. To be honest, the way Jack advised her actually made her feel much better. Forgiving yourself was the most appropriate way and Anne finally realized it.

"So you live in this apartment?" Jack asked flatly when they reached Anne's apartment.

"Yes, simple and comfortable," answered Anne curtly.

"Well then, let's get in," said Jack without guilt.

"Get in? Why do you have to get in with me?" asked Anne back, confused.

Printkk! Jack flashed a flick on Anne's forehead.

"Jack! Why did you hit me?" screamed Anne in pain when Jack poked her head.

"That's to punish you so that you don't talk much," Jack replied guiltlessly as he opened his car door to get down and approached Erick who was standing beside Anne's car.

Anne could only follow him after seeing Jack got out of the car without speaking again. She immediately ran after Jack who had arrived in front of Erick and was involved in a brief conversation with him. Jack quickly ended his conversation with Erick after realizing that Anne appeared behind him.

"Anne, let me introduce you to my right hand, Erick," Jack said quietly introducing Erick to Anne.

"I'm Eric, Miss Anne," said Erick politely as he stretched his hand towards Anne.

"Anne," said Anne briefly, as soon as she took Erick's hand.

"Alright then, let's go up, I have to know in which room you live in," said Jack suddenly, releasing Erick's hand from Anne's grip.

"Why do you want to know my room too?" asked Anne, surprised.

"Don't ask too much. Erick, could you tell me where are Anne's car keys and bag?" Jack replied quickly.

"This is Miss Anne's stuff, sir," said Erick curtly, holding out Anne's car keys and the black leopard print backpack quickly.

Jack's eyes narrowed when he saw the motif of Anne's bag which resembled a Leopard skin, he did not expect that a woman at Anne's age would still wear such a childish design bag. He quickly grabbed Anne's bag and put it on his shoulders then walked to the elevator. Anne could only follow him even though she actually didn't like Jack escorted her up to her apartment. There was no way Anne could win arguing with Jack, the former employee who turned out to be a rich man.

"Alright, this is my room. You better go, the day is getting dark. I'm tired, I'm going to sleep," said Anne quickly shooing Jack away when they arrived in front of Anne's room.

"Not bad, it seems like you are very smart at finding a place to live," Jack replied briefly with his eyes sweeping almost the entire interior of the apartment building. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

"Of course, now give me the car keys and my bag," said Anne quickly as she stretched her hand toward Jack.

Without speaking, Jack gave what he was carrying to Anne, which Anne immediately greeted. Jack could only smile when he saw Anne grabbing the object in his hand.

"Okay then, I'll go home now because it is getting dark. You better take a shower and rest. I think today must be very tiring for you because you've been crying for as long as you were with me. Don't you realize it now that your eyes are similar to apple, huh?" Jack teased Anne.

"What do you mean Apple? Do you think I'm a monster with eyes as big as an apple?" fierce Anne quickly as she folded her lips forward.

"Hahaha, I'm not the one who said you're a monster, huh. Hurry in. You have to rest a lot, today I let you cry as much as you want. In the future, I won't let you cry anymore. I'll punish you if you ever cry in front of my eyes," said Jack again, releasing one of the buttons on his white shirt.

"I understand. You better go now. You also have to rest. Thank you for today, Jack. I feel very relieved today," said Anne sincerely.

Without speaking, Jack reached out his hand towards Anne's head and ruffled Anne's hair back with exasperation.

"I'll go home now, Anne. See you tomorrow," Jack said softly saying goodbye to Anne.

Anne nodded her head slowly in response to Jack's words. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on her face.

"Thank you again for today, Jack," shouted Anne loudly as Jack almost reached the elevator.

Jack just waved his hand in the air without looking back in response to Anne's words, he then got into the elevator and disappeared from the sight of Anne who was still standing while hugging her beloved Leopard bag. After making sure Jack left, Anne then entered her room, her footsteps were very light today. Wreaking all feelings in her chest beside Jack made her calm down a lot this time. She had forgiven her old self just like what Jack had suggested. Right now, there was no resentment or regret left in her. She now felt like a new person who will not remember what had happened in the past.

Anne stood in the window looking at Jack who left with Erick and his other men. After the three expensive cars left Anne's apartment, she then stepped into the bathroom. She wanted to spend a longer time in the bath this time. Anne had also canceled her intention to tidy up the flower shop.

"Thank you, Jack, thank you for making me appreciates myself again. Thank you for opening my eyes wide open and telling me that I'm very valuable," said Anne softly as she played the soap in the bath.

Even though it was still too late to go to bed, she chose to get into bed immediately and closed her eyes under the blanket. She chose to sleep instead after bathing and soaking for thirty minutes. What Jack said was true, her eyes were very swollen now from crying too much. Using a mask over her eyes, Anne then tried to sleep when the clock was still half-past seven in the evening, a very early to go to bed at night.

Meanwhile, Jack was still smiling in his car while staring at his cellphone screen which shows Anne's cellphone number. Erick had managed to get Anne's cellphone number even though the cellphone has a password. Breaking other people's cellphone password was not a difficult task for Erick. He finally could get Anne's cellphone number and immediately gave it to Jack according to Jack's previous instructions.

"Oh yeah Erick, how was it? You weren't in serious trouble, were you?" asked Jack quietly.

"No, sir, everything is going well. The intruders have been punished accordingly and they are currently being questioned at the police station regarding the unpleasant acts they were accused of. Even the Audi A4 driver in the hospital is now a suspect because the driver threatens Miss Anne by asking for compensation money above the price of the new car she drives," Erick replied with a smile.

"Good job Erick. That man should rot in prison. How dare he call Anne a bitch," Jack hissed emotionally, remembering the man's words again when he called Anne a bitch and made him angry.

Hearing Jack's emotional tone made Erick smile, he chose to concentrate on driving the car to the new house owned by his boss, which had been paid in cash by Jack's personal lawyer who had been appointed previously. Even though Jack's house was not as good as Aaron's house, Jack's residential area was one of the top ten most expensive and most luxurious housing in London. It did not diminish his dignity as a successful businessman. Jack could have bought a house in the Kensington area where the English noble family lived. He did not do that because he did not want to waste his money since he also recently opened Muller Finance International, based in Switzerland. Therefore, he must spend his money wisely so that there was no excessive expenditure.

Jack's smile appeared when he entered the residential area of ??Park Place Villas, which was now his new residence. He liked the design and the atmosphere in this luxurious residential complex. It was not excessive but the design did not reduce its luxury looks to show that it was a prestigious living area.

"Movie stars, models, and some officials also live in this area, sir. So I hope you don't worry a lot when you see some paparazzi roaming the area later," said Erick quietly while slowing down his car.

"Really? Hmmm very interesting," said Jack briefly.

Not long after, Erick stopped his car when he arrived in front of the three-story house which was quite large and beautiful. The two cars behind his car also stopped. They all then got out of the car and walked towards their Master's very beautiful house.

"The lawyer who manages this place has given all the information to me, sir. I already know a little more about this area. The house you are going to live in is a new house built on the land that was once built by a classic bookstore that went bankrupt last year. After the bankruptcy, the marketing complex then tore down the shop and built it with the new house that you are going to live in, sir," Erick said slowly, telling a little about the history of Jack's new house that stood firmly in front of him.

"Good, I like this building. You're good at choosing a place to live in that suits my taste, Erick," Jack replied quickly. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

Erick's face got red because he was praised by his master, he rarely got this kind of praise since Jack usually got mad at him for whatever reason.

"Now, let's just pray that Anne will like this place," Jack added softly with a cold gaze at Erick who was still smiling.

"Miss Anne ..."

"Yes, Anne. She is the prospective mistress in this house. If she doesn't like this place then get ready to receive punishment from me," said Jack without guilt as he walked into the house where a lawyer and marketing team of the Park Place Villas residential complex were waiting for them in the house.
