Chapter 410 - Who Is Jack?
Hearing Alan's words made Anne's rage flowed out. Without thinking, Anne then stepped on Alan's feet with all her might.
"Ouch...!"
"That's the punishment for a mentally ill monster like you, Alan!!" Anne said quickly as soon as she was freed from the arms of Alan who was in pain.
After saying that, Anne rushed into the hotel, leaving her husband and his men in front of the hotel entrance. She continued to run towards the newly opened elevator. Alan smiled when he saw her running away like that. His attitude confused Nicholas and the other bodyguards.
"Your leg...."
"My leg is fine, Nick, I was just acting. I was just pretending to be in pain to make Anne happy," Alan answered quickly with a smile.
Nicholas then smiled broadly at the words of the master. He really did not expect his master to do the cheapest thing like that to please his wife.
"Come on, let's go in, I don't want to make my wife wait too long upstairs," said Alan again as he walked into the hotel.
"What do you mean by that, sir? Has Madam begun to accept Master?" asked a bodyguard to Nicholas in a half-whisper.
"I don't know, let's just go in. Don't make the master angry," Nicholas answered briefly.
The bodyguards immediately entered the hotel behind Nicholas, who was following Alan. He had arrived in front of the elevator which was still on its way to the lobby. As soon as the elevator door opened, Alan went straight into it, followed by Nicholas and the other bodyguards. Even though Nicholas and the other bodyguards were on a different floor from Alan, they still followed the master to the highest floor of the hotel.
As soon as they reached the top floor, Alan and his men got out of the elevator and immediately found Anne who was standing at the window looking out. Seeing her daydreaming again like that, Alan became restless again. He then ordered Nicholas and the others to leave him. Without being ordered twice, Nicholas and the other bodyguards immediately turned away and left the master with his wife. After making sure his men had left, Alan then approached Anne, who was still standing by the window.
"Why do you like standing by the window, Anne?" asked Alan suddenly, hugging Anne's waist from behind.
"Ahh Alan..."
"No, don't sigh. I can't hold myself back, Anne," Alan said quickly, cutting Anne's words.
"W-who's sighing? Don't talk nonsense!" said Anne full of emotion while trying to free Alan's hand which was on her waist.
Alan smiled when he saw Anne let go of his embrace. So far, he had never received any rejection from the beautiful girls he approached. That was why when Anne repeatedly refused him, he actually felt more challenged and tried to conquer Anne, who was still very wild.
"Oh so it wasn't a sigh? Okay, maybe I heard wrong. Then is this a sign because I miss you, Anne, so I'm having hallucinations, because I remember that beautiful night when you groaned in pain because..."
"Stop it! Don't talk about it, I don't want to hear it!!" Anne shouted loudly, cutting off Alan's words who were about to discuss that terrible night.
"Why don't you want to hear it? It was a very beautiful night for us, Anne, we should have documented that time so that..."
"Alan! Stop!!! I beg you don't talk about that, please ... sob," Anne said with tears ready to fall from her eyes.
Seeing the attitude shown by Anne made Alan stop talking. He couldn't bear to see Anne like that. There was tightness in his chest when he saw Anne like that. Full of guilt, Alan grabbed Anne and hugged her tightly. Although Anne hit his chest repeatedly, refusing to be hugged, but in the end, Alan still managed to hold Anne in his arms.
"Sorry, I'm sorry, Anne. I was just joking, Anne." Alan apologized quietly in a half whisper.
"Y-you're bad...you're bad, Alan. I hate you."
"Yes, you can hate me, but don't cry. Okay, let's go to the room. I don't want anyone to see us like this."
Hearing the word 'room' made Anne's body stiffen instantly and Alan felt it.
"Don't worry, I won't do that. Don't be afraid," said Alan quickly, trying to calm Anne.
Anne lifted her face and looked at Alan who was also looking at her. "Are you serious? You're not lying?"
"Yeah, I promise. I won't force you to do that," Alan replied with a wry smile.
Anne was silent for a moment. She did not respond to Alan's words. Her fear and hatred for Alan was still so great that it was hard for her to trust him. Not long after, Alan invited Anne into the room. Once they were in the room, Alan brought Anne to the bed. Anne's legs immediately hardened when she realized Alan was going to carry her to the bed.
"Alan..."
"Let's just talk. There are many things I want to ask you, Anne." Alan immediately answered Anne's words. He knew what she was thinking at the moment.
Anne, who couldn't believe him, was still standing where she was, holding herself as hard as she could so that Alan wouldn't carry her to the bed.
"If you're like this, you're actually provoking me, Anne. Believe me, I just want to talk to you. I'm not going to do anything like what I did at the villa or at the transit hotel last night."
"You're not lying, are you?"
Alan shook his head slowly in response to Anne's question. When she was convinced, she finally went to the bed. When she reached the super comfortable bed, she immediately took a sitting position as far as possible from Alan. She even took a pillow to hug.
"What do you want to say?" asked Anne quickly.
"Tell me about yourself, your background, the people closest to you, your best friend, your job or your ex-boyfriend," Alan answered quickly, asking Anne to tell him about herself. "Although I already know all the information about you from Nicholas, but I'm not satisfied yet, I want to hear it directly from you. Especially about the guy named Jack that you often mention."
Thump!
"H-how did you know about Jack?" asked Anne again. She was afraid that Alan was just testing her.
"Tch... how can I not know if you've said his name many times when you're with me. I want to know what kind of man who made you mention his name when you were completely mine that night. That's why I'm very curious about him," replied Alan was serious. His eyes flashed with seriousness.
Anne, who didn't expect to hear such a question from Alan, was confused about what to answer. She couldn't possibly say that Jack had a face like Alan. Anne was sure that Alan would not believe it.
"Why are you silent, Anne? Don't test the limits of my patience. Answer my question!!"
