Chapter 516 - DejaVu
During the trip to Luxembourg, Jack tried to be patient, not to send a message to Rudolf about Anne's sexy clothes. He had to be calm and focused because right now he was flying his own helicopter, as the pilot who took them to Paris yesterday had a cold and Jack didn't want to take the risk of flying with a sick pilot. Therefore, he chose to fly his own helicopter to Luxembourg.
"I didn't know you could fly a helicopter yourself, Jack," said Anne sincerely.
"When I was 12 years old, Dad put me into a professional flight school, and when I was 17, I got a license to fly my own plane. So actually flying a helicopter is not difficult for me because I have mastered it for years," replied Jack quickly.
"12 years ago, at that time I was still living on the move with my father to avoid being chased by the moneylenders."
Jack immediately turned to Anne quickly. "Don't think about the past, and you're with me now. So don't ever talk about your sad past life again."
"Jack, focus!!" Anne screamed frantically.
"Promise me first."
Anne immediately closed her eyes. "Yes, I promise!!!"
A smile appeared on Jack's face. He then focused again and stopped teasing her. When she realized that Jack had returned to focus on flying the helicopter properly, Anne breathed a sigh of relief. She almost had a heart attack when the helicopter went into a dive just moments ago. She didn't know that Jack did that on purpose to tease her. After spending 1 hour 20 minutes, the Clarke family's Eurocopter EC135 landed smoothly on the helipad inside the Clarke family's mansion.
With the help of Jack, who got off the helicopter first, Anne managed to set foot on the ground again. "Finally, we're home."
Jack chuckled. "Just tell me where you're going, I'm ready to take you."
"I don't want to fly with you anymore, you're annoying," said Anne curtly as she stepped away from Jack.
"Really? But you love it, don't you?"
Anne stopped in her tracks and turned to Jack. "No, who said I love you? Don't be too confident."
Jack growled. "Repeat that again, Anne!!!"
Instead of answering Jack's question, Anne stuck out her tongue, teasing Jack. After that, she immediately ran into the house, leaving Jack alone. Realizing that Anne wanted to avoid him, Jack did not stay silent. He also rushed to run after Anne, but when he almost arrived at the main door, Jack was surprised to see Anne suddenly stopped and stood straight in the middle of the stairs.
"What's wrong, An..."
"Long time no see, Mr. Muller."
Jack stopped his words when he heard the voice of the man he hated so much.
"Leonardo Ganke," Jack muttered coldly.
Anne immediately grabbed Jack's arm tightly when Leon looked at her with a smile. Noticing the change in his wife's attitude, Jack stood in front of her, blocking Leon's gaze.
Leon smiled when he saw what Jack was doing. He then went down the stairs to where Jack and Anne were.
"I came here because I wanted to meet you, Mr. Muller, I'm very happy that you're still alive. As soon as I read the article about you, I immediately went to Luxembourg. I wanted to..."
"Your presence is not wanted here."Jack immediately cut in Leon's words.
Leon chuckled. "Come on, we were co-workers. And I also want to congratulate you on your marriage. Really, I was very surprised. It turned out that my ex-wife was very smart in finding a husband, I was really amazed."
Anne's grip on Jack's arm grew stronger. Leon's words pierced her heart.
"Since you've seen me, now you better go home," said Jack sarcastically.
Leon laughed out loud at Jack's words. He looked calm and was not angry at all even though Jack had kicked him out rudely. Without shame, Leon approached Jack and Anne again. "How does it feel to enjoy the woman I dumped? I can't believe it turns out that the taste of a Jackson Patrick Muller is Leonardo Ganke's ex-wife. I'm curious about your first night. Will Marianne be able to satisfy you considering she is an ex-wife who..."
"Jack, no!!! ' cried Anne spontaneously as Jack immediately grabbed Leon's neck to stop him from speaking.
Wayne, who had been silent all this time, immediately approached his master who was in danger, while Erick and Nicholas immediately shouted like Anne, trying to stop Jack.
Leon, who was still conscious, immediately raised his hand, asking Wayne not to interfere. Meanwhile, Mr. David Clarke and Luis who were standing right in front of the door could only be silent when they saw Jack was very angry.
"One more time, try to insult my wife one more time, then I'll pull out the tongue from your rotten mouth, Leon!" said Jack in a rising voice.
Leon laughed at Jack's words. He didn't look scared at all by the threat Jack gave him. Because he didn't want Jack to lose control, Aaron, who had been standing beside Mr. David Clarke, immediately ran to Jack, who was still clutching Leon's neck.
"Let go of him, Jack, don't get your hands dirty with this guy's blood. You'd better bring Anne in, poor Anne," Aaron said quietly, trying to stop Jack.
Hearing Aaron's words made Jack immediately release his grip from Leon's neck. At the same time, Jack felt Anne's grip on his hand getting weaker. Jack immediately grabbed Anne's waist when he realized something was wrong with his wife. Wayne immediately helped his master as soon as he was free from Jack's grip.
"You'd better get your Master out of here before anything bad happens to him," Aaron said quietly to Wayne.
Wayne didn't answer Aaron's words, but he did exactly what Aaron told him to do. Although Leon initially refused, but in the end, he couldn't do anything when the Warrior members walked behind them, making sure the people left the Clarke family mansion area.
Seeing Anne's pale face, Jack then carried Anne in a bridal style and prepared to take her into the house, but Jack stopped again when he heard the screams of Leon who was led away by the Warrior members. Leon continued to make condescending sentences to Anne and ridiculous sentences to Jack who married a widow. Leon seemed to really enjoy what he did. He didn't realize that he was currently in someone else's house, while Anne, who was again getting insulted by Leon, could only stay silent and lower her face even more, hiding herself in Jack's chest.
Jack continued up the stairs to the main door of his grandfather's house, but as he crossed Nicholas, he paused in his footsteps. "Make sure that damn lion gets out of Luxembourg today, Nick."
"Yes, sir."
Jack resumed his steps into the house with Anne in his arms, ignoring everyone who was staring at them. Maybe other people didn't know how tormented Anne was right now, but Jack knew about it. He could feel how cold and shaky her body was right now, and it hurt him so much. To see his woman hurt made Jack's heart ache so much.
"It's okay, Anne…I am here."
