Chapter 380 - Alan's Refusal
Alan was lost for words when he heard Anne's words. He was transfixed by the words that had just been spoken by the woman he adored so much.
"Anne... I..."
"I don't want to deal with you anymore!" Anne immediately cut Alan's words spontaneously with a face that was red with anger.
"You're mine, Anne, you have to come home with me to our house. I've prepared everything there for both of us, so now you come home with me," said Alan in a rising voice.
Thump!
Anne's heart raced very fast right now. The memories of the terrible night a few days ago flashed through her mind again, when she heard Alan's words who wanted to take her back to the villa where Alan had taken away her chastity.
"No!!! I don't want to go with you, I don't want to!!" Anne screamed loudly. Her tears immediately flooded down her face which was now as pale as paper.
Seeing Anne was hysterical, Doctor Caitlyn immediately acted. She quickly hugged Anne, trying to calm Anne, who was reminded of her dark night again. As a senior doctor, Caitlyn understood what Anne was feeling right now.
"Anne…"
"Don't come any closer, young master, please," Doctor Caitlyn shrieked loudly, forbidding Alan to come any closer.
"But, I..."
Mr. David Clarke, who was beside Alan, immediately grabbed his beloved grandson's hand. "Follow me for a moment.".
"Grandpa..."
"Believe me, this is for your own good too, Alan," said Mr. David Clarke, cutting Alan's words. His smile grew as he spoke so that he finally managed to make Alan submit.
Without a word, Alan left the dining room and went to the garden beside the dining room, where he and his grandfather had argued a couple of days ago. Seeing Alan went to the garden, Mr. David smiled. He then nodded his head at Doctor Caitlyn, giving her a code to take good care of Anne.
"I understand, sir," said Doctor Caitlyn softly with a smile.
Mr. David Clarke smiled at the doctor's words. He then asked Luis to push him to the garden after his grandson. After everyone left, Doctor Caitlyn took Anne into the room. With tears still flowing, Anne walked with Doctor Caitlyn to her room. Through the window that separated the garden and dining room, Alan could still see Anne. His heart ached at this moment when he saw Anne like that. He wanted to hug Anne and comfort her.
When Mr. David Clarke came out, he was surprised to see a motorbike lying in his yard.
"I brought it, don't ask why the motorcycle is destroyed now," said Alan without guilt.
"You ride a motorcycle? How many times have I told you not to ride a motorcycle again, Alan? Don't you remember the car accident that happened to you years ago?!" rebuked Mr. David Clarke in a rising voice. Worry was evident in his tone.
Alan folded his arms across his chest. "You made me do this, so don't blame me."
"Why do you blame me?" asked Mr. David Clarke in confusion.
"If the guards in front didn't stop me from entering, then I wouldn't have done something reckless like this," Alan replied curtly, his eyes gleaming with vengeance at Luis. He was sure that the guards who barred him from entering were on Luis' orders.
Mr. David Clarke was speechless, for what his grandson had said was true. But he didn't expect Alan to go that far to break through the defense that Luis had put in place, so that Alan couldn't get into the house.
"What is your purpose, Grandpa? Why did you help Luis kidnap my woman?" Alan asked without further ado to his grandfather who had just sat opposite him with Luis.
"I didn't kidnap anyone," replied Mr. David Clarke curtly.
"You ordered Luis to enter my villa and make a mess there and then take Marianne away from my place! What do you call that other than kidnapping? Why did you do that? You have never mind my fun, but why are you meddling in my business now, Grandpa? Don't worry, Grandpa, I won't get you in trouble," said Alan quickly.
"Because this time you've made a big mistake, Marianne... she's not like the girls you've known before. She's a good girl, if you treat her the same way you treated your previous lovers, then you're wrong, Alan. Since childhood Marianne has lived in hardship because she grew up without her parents, until finally she migrated to England to work and study, completing her education with her own business, a flower shop and employing two employees. If you play with her, then she will be destroyed, Alan. She's a good girl, son, if you really like her then marry her. I agree if you marry Marianne, she deserves to be with you, son," answered Mr. David Clarke at length.
"Why don't you get married, Alan, you're old enough to get married," added Mr. David Clarke again.
Hearing his grandfather's words surprised Alan. He really did not expect his grandfather to actually ask him to marry Anne, the woman who had really driven him crazy for the past few weeks.
"Why should I marry her?" Alan asked subconsciously.
"Because you have to be responsible for what you did to Marianne, son, the girl was devastated. Totally devastated when you ruined her future, Doctor Caitlyn has already told me everything, including your confession that you've taken her chastity. Do you have the heart to let such a good girl live a lifetime of suffering because of your actions, son? Do you think Marianne will be able to live a normal life again after what you did? No, Alan, she definitely can't. Let me repeat myself once again, Marianne is not like the other girls, Alan, so you have to marry her," replied Mr. David Clarke excitedly. He must succeed in persuading Alan to marry Marianne. At least, with that, his guilt would be reduced because he was the one who has separated the two of them indirectly, that was why Mr. David Clarke was trying his best to get them both married.
"I don't want to marry her, she's not my type," said Alan quickly, folding his arms across his chest.
"What?!!! What are you saying? Why do you say that son? You even already..."
"I will pay her, I'm sure by giving her a lot of money, she will not refuse. Not a single woman refuses money, Grandpa. Never mind, just don't interfere in this matter, Grandpa. I don't want to get married right now. Besides, I still have a lot of work to do in the office. I don't want to add to the burden on my mind anymore by having a wife." Alan arrogantly, cutting off his grandfather's words.
"Alan..."
Alan got up from his chair suddenly, causing David to stop his words.
"Besides, she doesn't love me, so how could I marry her? There's another man in her heart and it's not me," Alan said quietly as he walked away.
"But Alan..."
Alan, who was already walking towards his motorbike, immediately stopped his footsteps and turned to his grandfather and said, "If you keep forcing me to marry her, I better go, I don't want to argue with you anymore. I don't want to get married now, I still want to be free."
When he spoke, Alan gave him another unreadable look. After saying that, Alan rushed out of his grandfather's residence with the motorbike he rode before to break through Luis's defense.
