Chapter 376 - David Clarke's Protection
Alan, who had been overcome with anger, ignored his grandfather's words. Without waiting for Luis' answer, with all his strength, Alan threw his fist into Luis' face which immediately made Luis fall into the grass.
"Alan, stop it!!!!" Mr. David Clarke shouted back when he saw his beloved grandson was about to throw his fist back at Luis.
"Grandpa..."
"Everything can be discussed amicably, son, sit down quickly," said Mr. David Clarke, again cutting Alan's words.
Alan, who was actually still very angry, finally obeyed his grandfather's words and sat in the chair that Luis had previously occupied without speaking, while Noah and Nicholas rushed to help Luis to get up. Mr.. David Clarke took a deep breath when he saw that Luis' lips were cracked from being hit by Alan's mighty blow. He then gave a code to Luis to treat his wound but Luis firmly refused. He preferred to stay with his master for fear that Alan would do something reckless.
"What's the matter with you? Why did you suddenly come and hit Luis like that? What's wrong with Luis?" asked Mr. David Clarke gently to Alan.
"Grandpa, don't pretend you don't know, I'm sure you're also involved in this," Alan replied curtly without taking his eyes off Luis, who was currently standing right beside his grandfather.
"How do I know if you don't tell me? Do you think this grandfather is a psychic," said Mr. David Clarke without guilt.
"Please Grandpa..."
Alan couldn't finish his words when his hand was gripped by his grandfather. No matter how angry he was, when his grandfather did that to him, all the anger that was in his chest was instantly subsided.
"Speak clearly. If Luis did something wrong, I will act upon it. Even though he is my personal assistant, I will not defend the wrong person here, son. So tell me from the beginning, what did Luis do to make you angry that you have to beat him like that?"' said Mr. David Clarke back with a warm gaze full of love.
Being stared at like that made Alan's anger completely disappear, the only person who was able to calm his anger was only his grandfather, who was currently smiling warmly at him. After taking a deep breath, Alan began to tell about the strange event that had happened in his private villa today, including the oddities that befell his subordinates, who fell asleep at the same time. He also told about Anne's disappearance from the villa, but he did not tell the most important part where he had raped her to his grandfather. When Alan started to talk about Anne, his voice trembled a little which made Mr. David Clarke feel a little guilty, but because he remembered about Doctor Caitlyn's message, he finally tried to get rid of those feelings for Anne's sake.
"How did you know it was Luis who did that, son?" asked Mr. David Clarke quietly.
Alan looked at Luis sharply. "He's the only person who can do all that, you also know his ability, right, Grandpa?"
"Luis has been with me since morning, he hasn't gone anywhere. He accompanied me to check some important files, accompanied me to breakfast, accompanied me to sunbathe, and right now, as you can see, we are relaxing while enjoying our tea. So how could he possibly do such a thing? "said Mr. David Clarke slowly in response to Alan's words.
"But..."
Mr. David Clarke took a deep breath. "Maybe he can do all that if you are beside me, replacing his duties every day. So he can do it all."
Alan's face immediately changed, he was speechless. The words that had just been spoken by his grandfather made him lose, because the one who had been accompanying his grandfather was Luis, not him. Instantly, a sense of guilt filled his deepest little heart. He felt a little guilty now because he couldn't do as many things as Luis did.
A triumphant smile spread across the old man's face. He managed to make his grandson lost in just a few words. Likewise with Luis, although he did not show a change in expression, he laughed inwardly and worshiped his master for his ability to subdue an angry lion with ease.
"Who is the girl you're looking for, son? Is she Andriana or..."
"No, she's not one of those girls. You don't know her, Grandpa, I've only met her a few times," Alan answered softly in a hoarse voice. When he talked about Anne, he was devastated that he had lost track of her now.
"If you've only met her a few times, why are you so panicked? How beautiful is she to make my favorite grandson so mad like this hmmm?" asked Mr. David Clarke excitedly while stroking Alan's neatly arranged hair.
Alan was silent, his lips were stiff. His throat suddenly hurt so much that he couldn't utter any word, as guilt came back to him. He felt sick when he heard his grandfather's question.
"S-she's the prettiest girl I've ever seen, Grandpa, her smile is the same as the girl who's been in my dreams. Her lips, her dimples and..."
"And?"
"And her body, her body is like that girl's. I was absolutely infatuated with her from the first time I saw her in that restaurant, Grandpa, I've never felt this feeling before. No girl has managed to make me this crazy except her and I'm so afraid of losing her. Just seeing her smile makes me want her so much," said Alan honestly. He really loved Anne and didn't want to lose her.
Mr. David Clarke took a deep breath. He now believed what Dr. Caitlyn said. His grandson was really obsessed with Anne, but on the other hand, he didn't blame Alan because, in fact they had a relationship in the past and Mr. David believed his grandson was like that to Anne because of their bond that had existed for years.
"If you love her, find her and take her home to meet me. I want to see the kind of girl who has made my beloved grandson can suddenly speak sweet things like this." Mr. David tried to calm Alan down in his own way. However he couldn't divulge Anne's current whereabouts to Alan.
Mr. David Clarke knew very well what his grandson was like. He would not be satisfied to make love with a woman until he was bored. Moreover, this time, the woman Alan liked was the same woman he had loved when he was still Jack. Mr. David Clarke was afraid that his grandson would not be able to control himself and raped Anne again. And if that happened, then Anne would be even more afraid of Alan, so that his plan to get them married would fail. Therefore, Mr. David Clarke did not tell him Anne's whereabouts at the moment and pretended not to know her for the sake of his grand plan to reunite their love.
