< Jack's Mansion >
Jack looked at Anne who had just slept after receiving the sedative that Doctor Caitlyn had injected to her. In the middle of the previous trip, Jack asked Doctor Caitlin to bring Anne back to the house. Jack didn't want Anne to be in the hospital all the time because that would make her even more depressed.
"Right now what she needs are not drugs or doctors. What she needs is the support of the people closest to her, so that she can quickly get up from all this," said Doctor Caitlyn quietly as she left the room to Jack.
Jack took a deep breath. "Does this kind of thing often happen to women who have lost their babies, Doc?"
"It's more or less like that, it's not uncommon for some women to even experience severe depression because of the loss of the child they desire," Doctor Caitlyn answered quietly.
Jack clenched his fists, trying not to explode. "Anne can't blame Christian for this, can she?"
"No mother is picky about any of her children, especially in this matter. I'm afraid it's not Christian that is being blamed by Anne, but herself. If Anne keeps blaming herself then our efforts to get her back on her feet will be a bit difficult."
"Jesus."
"We must remain optimistic, sir. With your support, I believe that Anne will be able to rise from her current slump, believe and have faith," said Doctor Caitlyn again, trying to encourage Jack.
Jack did not respond to the doctor's words. His gaze had shifted to Anne, who was sleeping on the bed. Doctor Caitlyn then chose to leave Jack. She wanted to give the husband and wife a chance.
When Doctor Caitlyn arrived on the first floor, she was immediately greeted by Alice who was already carrying Christian.
"Mommy?" The smart Christian immediately asked the whereabouts of his mother, whom he had not seen for almost three days.
Doctor Caitlyn smiled and grabbed Christian from Alice's arms. "Mommy is currently resting, Christian, don't disturb her, okay?"
"Is my Mommy sick?"
"No, your Mommy is fine."
"Really?"
Doctor Caitlyn chuckled. "Yes, Mommy is really sleeping, smart boy."
Christian was happy to hear that his mother was okay. For the past three days, no one had answered his questions about his mother's whereabouts. That was why at this moment Christian was very happy to know that his mother was okay in the room.
Alice, who had been silently for a while, tapped Doctor Caitlyn on the shoulder to find out Anne's true condition. A small shake of the head from the doctor made Alice and the others lowered their heads sluggishly. They knew what Doctor Caitlyn's shake of the head meant.
Luis could only be silent and didn't talk much. This time he couldn't do much because this matter was beyond his control.
"Poor Anne, she must be so sad," Rose said softly as she was in Aaron's arms.
Aaron immediately patted his wife's shoulder gently. "Anne and Jack will get through this, they're both strong."
Rose tightened her arms on Aaron's body. As a woman, Rose felt Anne's sadness.
While Daniel and Nicholas could only sit next to each other doing nothing, as they were both lost in their own thoughts. The overcast clouds completely covered not only Anne and Jack, but the people around them as well. They felt the same sadness that Anne and Jack felt.
After watching Anne asleep for a while, Jack opened his laptop and started looking for a place for him to calm down with Anne in Austria. He chose Austria because in that country there were so many beautiful and cool open spaces.
Jack hoped that by staying for a while in the country's countryside, Anne would soon forget her sadness. But after surfing for thirty minutes on the internet, Jack suddenly closed his laptop which was still showing the beauty of some places in Austria.
"Looks like I have to go back to that city, that's where we should go to calm down. A historic city for me and Anne," said Jack softly with a smile.
With a quick movement, Jack reached for his cell phone and called one of his acquaintances, and soon they were engaged in a serious conversation. Jack's eyes sparkled as he spoke, occasionally smiling as he turned to Anne.
"I want everything as I explained before and you only have 2 x 24 hours to prepare everything," said Jack slowly closing the conversation.
"Ready sir, we will do everything you want." A man's voice with a strong British accent spoke on the other end of the phone before the call ended.
After he finished speaking, Jack then walked to the bed and laid down next to his wife who had fallen asleep under the influence of the drug. "We'll start all over again, Anne. I'll fix our first meeting, honey. I love you, Marianne, I love you."
***
A woman who had just finished taking a shower was touching her chest which was now filled with red marks. This beautiful and sexy woman sat in her grand chair while counting the money she got tonight from customers who had used her services on the bed.
"It turns out that being a prostitute is more fun than being the wife of a rich man, isn't it, Sis?"
From behind, another young girl who was wearing super tight clothes suddenly spoke, commenting on the woman who was counting her money in a coquettish tone.
"You're right. It turns out that being a bitch is more profitable. And I have to thank that man for bringing me into this world," said the woman in the towel in an even voice.
"Haha... why is that, sis? Are you still mad at that guy?"
Slowly, the woman who was counting her money turned around and let go of the towel that was wrapped around her body just like that on the chair. Without shame, the woman walked towards the large glass in her room. Staring at the beauty of her body from the mirror, smiling.
"I once betrayed the person who had helped me when I was almost a prostitute. I even took that person's position in her family so that she was expelled from the house. And after I got her position as the mistress, my life was never calm until finally the man I took actually plunged me into this world. Maybe my place is in this world, the place where I should be when I was not helped by that kind woman. For three years as a star in this brothel, I realized that God seemed to decide from the beginning for me to be here."
"Sis..."
"It's okay, Bianca. I just reminisce a little about my life journey. I'm much calmer now in this place."
The blonde haired girl who had been standing for a while then grabbed the towel that was on the chair and then put it on the body of the beautiful woman whom she had been calling her sister for a long time.
"Tomorrow accompany me to Berlin, Bianca. I want to surprise the man."
"Are you serious?"
The woman, who was already wrapped in the towel, nodded slowly. "Very serious, I want to return the favor to the woman who helped me in the past."
"Return what?"
"You'll know when we get to that place, Bianca," the beautiful woman answered slowly, smiling as she looked at her reflection in the mirror in front of her. Right beside the mirror, the woman's smart phone was showing an article about Marianne Clarke who had a miscarriage.
