Chapter 151 - Our Children
When the elevator reached the lobby, Anne was still trying to calm the four children who were crying because they were afraid of Jack. She looked patient with the four children, while Jack just stood behind Anne, folded his arms across his chest. He couldn't believe that the little kids who called him uncle were crying when he just said a few sentences. Two security people who already knew the problem were just silent. They seemed to hold back their laughter when they saw Jack being called an evil uncle by the four children who were being calmed by Anne.
"Beautiful kids should not cry. Dears," said Anne softly as she wiped the tears of the two little girls who still clung to her.
"Uncle is bad, Sis," whispered one of the little girls in Anne's arms hoarsely.
"Actually he's not bad, my dear. Your uncle's voice is loud so it seems like he is angry. In fact, he is not," said Anne softly.
"Really?" asked a boy named Miguel in disbelief.
"Yes, I'm not lying. Hmm. What if we all go to school with Uncle in his nice car?" asked Anne quickly.
"Anne ..."
Anne immediately turned to Jack while putting a finger in front of her mouth asking Jack to be quiet. Jack looked displeased with Anne's words saying that the little children could get into his car to go to school.
"Nice car? What kind of car the evil uncle has, pretty sister?" asked a little girl named Patricia quietly.
"There, in front of the lobby, there's a black two-door car. That car belongs to your uncle," said Anne softly, pointing at Jack's Bugatti Veyron.
As soon as they saw Jack's supercar, the four young children immediately forgot about their sadness. They ran towards Jack's luxury car which was parked right in front of the apartment lobby. Because it was still early and there were not much activities yet, Jack could park in that place.
"Wow, what a great car!"
"This is a celebrity's car, are you a celebrity?"
"I want to buy this when I grow up."
"Me too, it would be cool if you drive it to college."
"Yeah right, this is a really cool car."
Hearing the chatter of the four small children that Jack made to cry made Anne laugh with amusement, she did not expect that the expressions of these innocent children were so different from what she imagined. While Jack seemed to only be patient to see his car in the hands of a small child, he, who did not like small children, tried to be patient this time so as not to cause another problem.
Soon Anne then walked over to the little children and squatted in front of them all.
"How do you usually go to school, Dears?" asked Anne softly.
"With the school bus, Sis, we usually wait for the bus at the bus stop in front of the apartment," replied Patricia quickly.
"I see. Hmmm. What if your uncle took you to school, do you think your teacher will scold you?" asked Anne again.
"No, pretty Sister." The four innocent little children answered Anne's question as they shook their heads at the same time.
Seeing their answers made Anne smile again. She really adored the children in front of her.
"Wait a minute. Let me check with the uncle first. You guys stay here and wait," said Anne quietly, giving a message to the four children in front of her.
"Yes, Sis," answered the four small children compactly.
After talking with the little children, Anne then got up and walked over to Jack, who was still standing in front of the elevator along with the two security guards who were accompanying him. Anne walked with a smile looking at Jack. Her smile looked even more charming when her dimples were visible and this smile which had melted Jack's heart.
"Let's go," said Anne quietly.
"Go? Go where?" Jack asked curtly pretending to be angry to hide his nervousness when he saw Anne's smile.
"Pay up your responsibility," answered Anne curtly.
"Pay up my responsibility? Well, I haven't done anything to you, Anne, how can you ask me to take responsibility? Don't say you can't hold yourself back from being able to ... Ouch!"
"Don't talk. We're taking the kids to their school. Earlier you've made them cry, so you have to take responsibility for the mistakes you made," said Anne, quickly cutting off Jack's words while pinching Jack's waist which made him unable to finish his words.
"In my car? I took the car all the way from Switzerland to please you, Anne, not those little ones," Jack said softly, touching his waist which had just been pinched by Anne.
"Now please the kids first. It's your fault that you talked so loudly to them in the elevator," said Anne curtly without guilt.
"Yes, but not in my car Anne, I don't ..."
Jack could not finish his words because he was pulled by Anne and they walked toward the exit, where the four children were waiting for them with a sincere smile.
"Come on in, evil uncle is here," said Anne softly with a smile.
"Hooray ... you're the best, pretty sister."
"How cool is this!"
The four children were excited while jumping up and down. They really couldn't wait to ride in Jack's car, which was indeed an expensive supercar that not everyone could buy. The tax on Jack's favorite car alone could buy Anne's car, so it was no wonder the four young children were overjoyed. They really couldn't wait to get on that car to school, because Anne kept on insisting that Jack finally gives in. She then got on to open her car and let the four children enter first. Because there were only two seats in the luxury car, finally Anne got into her own car with Jack's private driver. Meanwhile, Jack had to be patient because next to him were four small children who looked very impressed with Jack's luxury car.
"Ok, you sit down sweetly, Uncle will take you to school," Jack said quietly when he saw the school car of the four small children next to him starting to leave the apartment area.
"Yes, Uncle," answered the four small children compactly.
Jack just sighed and tried to be patient. Soon, he stepped on the gas pedal of his car and started following the school bus in front of him. Anne and Jack's private driver were seen following from behind, because Anne's apartment was the final pick-up point from the school bus. Finally, their current destination was directly to school and it made Jack a little calm because he didn't have to stop by at another place to pick up the other children.
After driving for almost fifteen minutes, the group finally arrived at the elementary school of the four children in Jack's car. Anne, who had stopped, immediately got out of her car and approached Jack's car. Anne gently knocked on Jack's car window and asked Jack to open the door so that the four children in the car could get out. Without speaking, Jack then opened the car door automatically. As soon as Jack's car door opened, Anne immediately squatted and removed the seat belts that were attached to the bodies of the four small children slowly, after the seat belts were released, the four children got out of the car and stood beside Anne. Jack himself also got out of his car and walked over to Anne, who was standing among the four children who surrounded him.
"Thank you for the ride, handsome Uncle."
"Yes, it turns out that Uncle is a good person. Thank you, Uncle."
"Be careful on the road, kind Uncle."
"Bye bye kind Uncle, we're going to school first so we could be smart and could buy a car like this, Uncle."
The words of those innocent children made Jack felt less angry, especially when he was called a handsome uncle.
"Okay, now go. Your teacher is waiting outside, study well, don't be naughty," replied Jack briefly.
"Yes, handsome Uncle, bye pretty sister. Thank you for this morning ... bye bye ..." The screams of the four children were loud and almost simultaneously as they ran away from Anne and Jack to the classroom. Some of the parents who escorted their children were surprised when she saw the luxury car. They seemed to be whispering while pointing at Anne and Jack.
Jack, who realized that he was currently being the center of attention, felt uncomfortable. He quickly grabbed Anne's hand and led her into the car.
"Loud kids," Jack said curtly as he fastened his seat belt.
"They're cute, Jack," said Anne quietly as she waved her hand at the children they had just brought.
"Only our kids are cute," Jack said briefly as he slammed the gas pedal onto the highway.
