Chapter 646 - Surprise Party
5 months later
< Geneva, Switzerland >
After almost five months of constant commuting from Luxembourg to Switzerland, Jack could finally breathe a sigh of relief because today Anne would be living in Switzerland until she gave birth. Anne was already in her seventh month of pregnancy. The gender of their second baby had already been 100% confirmed as a girl. When he heard the results of the examination which revealed the gender of his second child a few months ago, Jack shouted loudly in Doctor Caitlyn's examination room. He was very happy because his second baby was a girl, just as he had hoped. Anne herself was also happy, although at first she wanted another boy like Christian, but Anne was finally happy that the child in her stomach was a girl.
The situation in the mansion was currently very busy. Dozens of maids who were decorating the house were made to work extra hard because they had only been notified by Jack that they would return home this morning. So that it couldn't be helped, Erick, Nicholas and Alice finally moved quickly separately to prepare all of Anne's welcome today. Fortunately, after the trio left, all the items needed were collected. So that at this time all the servants could immediately work on them together, even some members of the Warriors who did not know how to decorate flowers helped, because the time for Anne's arrival was getting closer.
"Sprinkle these rose petals on the red carpet, don't miss anything. Master wants Madam to feel like she's stepping on a flower bridge," Nicholas said again, ordering the servants to cover all the red carpet from the entrance to the front of the master's room to be covered with rose petals.
"Yes sir," replied the ten maids who were scattering the flower petals in unison.
"Please try to make the pink balloons to stick beautifully above, don't let any balloon got separated," Alice said loudly, giving instructions to the Warrior members who were climbing the stairs to stick the balloons around the stairs.
While Erick was in charge of setting the lights in the mansion, he had to make sure the mansion's atmosphere was great when the mistress came. After living in Luxembourg for five months due to pregnancy, the madam finally returned to live in Geneva. The news immediately made everyone happy because of the arrival of a new member of the Clarke family, a princess who would be a new addition to Jack and Anne's family who already had Christian.
Everyone in the mansion really worked together to prepare for the welcome of the mistress and the baby girl who would soon come into the world, and Anne did not know about the surprise party, because Jack didn't tell her anything.
"Wake up, Mommy," Jack whispered softly to Anne who was still sleeping in bed. Even though their flight wasn't long, Anne still fell asleep. Entering the third trimester, she was really very easy to fall asleep.
Anne slowly opened her eyes. "Are we there yet?"
"Yeah, we've arrived. Christian and the others are already got off."
"Really? But I'm still sleepy, Daddy," said Anne quietly, closing her mouth again due to yawning.
Jack smiled. "You guys can sleep again at home, we have to get off the plane immediately because the engine must be turned off immediately, babe."
Anne looked at Jack with teary eyes from yawning. Really, during this pregnancy, Anne experienced a lot of new things that she never imagined before. She was lucky to have Jack beside her, so whatever she wanted, Jack could always grant it. Anne could not imagine that if she was pregnant without Jack like when she was pregnant with Christian a few years ago, Anne was sure that she would not be able to get through it all on her own. The child in his stomach really, really didn't want to be away from his father.
Jack lovingly helped Anne out of bed. He had also brought Anne's bag which he had slung over his body so that Anne no longer had to carry a bag.
"Me first," Jack said quietly to keep Anne from getting out of the plane first.
The obedient Anne finally waited on the plane until finally Jack held out his hand to Anne. She then carefully descended the stairs. Actually, she didn't wear high heels anymore, but still she had to be extra careful considering her current condition. When Anne and Jack have managed to set foot on the ground, Christian went straight to his mother.
"Are you okay, Mom?"
Anne smiled and ruffled her first son's hair. "Mommy's fine."
"How about my little sister?"
Jack chuckled and immediately grabbed Christian for him to carry. "Your little sister is fine. Right now she is sleeping in Mommy's belly."
"Really? Then when can I meet her?"
"When she's ready, when the little sister is born, will you to take care of her, Christian?"
"Of course, I will take very good care of my little sister. I won't let bad people hurt her." Christian answers quickly confidently.
Jack landed a kiss on Christian's forehead lovingly. "Before those bad guys get to you, Daddy will get rid of them first, so you don't have to be afraid."
Hearing her husband's words, Anne immediately patted him on the shoulder gently, shaking her head.
Jack smiled at the gesture that Anne gave, because he didn't want to see Anne linger outside, Jack finally invited Anne into the car that had been waiting for them since 30 minutes ago.
"Well, why didn't Erick pick us up?" asked Anne quietly when she realized that the driver who picked them up was a member of the Warrior, not Erick or Nicholas.
"Erick has some unfinished business, babe," Jack answered quickly.
Anne nodded her head slowly. "I see. That's all right. But everything's fine right? I mean his relationship with Alice has improved too, right?"
Jack smiled. "I'm also confused about what to answer? What's clear is they are like cat and dog who always fight but miss each other if one is not seen."
Anne chuckled. "They really are something. Just let them be, we shouldn't interfere them. Let them take care of their own relationship, I'm sure they're mature enough for that."
Jack just thinned his lips in response to Anne's words. He then ordered the driver to leave the airport as soon as he got into a black limousine with a big C logo on the side of the car. Not long after that, the convoy of cars that picked up Anne and Jack began to leave the airport. All the way to the mansion, Christian continued to chatter. Since knowing that he would soon become a big brother, he had become more mature. According to Luis, who was taking care of Christian, the child even never wet the bed when he slept. Whether he slept at night or not, he would definitely ask to go to the bathroom before going to bed.
The journey from the airport seemed very fast to Jack, even though he knew that his men had not finished preparing the surprise for Anne. But because the car that brought them was approaching the mansion, finally Jack gave up. As the car that brought them almost arrived in front of the main gate, suddenly a woman who had been in her car suddenly came out and blocked the convoy of cars. Luckily, the driver who brought the car that contained Jack and his family was quick to respond. He didn't apply the brakes suddenly so that unwanted things could be avoided. Anne herself was already prepared and immediately wrapped her arms around her stomach to protect her daughter.
Luis was immediately alerted. He touched the shoulder of Jack who wanted to get out of the car.
"Let me handle this, sir," said Luis curtly.
"Careful, Luis."
Luis turned and smiled at Anne. "Relax, Madam."
Anne gripped Christian's hand so tightly that Christian groaned in pain, luckily she realized that and grabbed Christian from Anne's arms.
"Jack..."
"It's okay... my men will take care of that woman, you calm down." Jack immediately calmed Anne with a big smile.
Outside, at the moment, all the members of the Warriors were standing around the car that Jack was still riding with his wife and son. They made a posse to protect the master from bad possibilities.
