Chapter 518 - Untouchable
After the chaos that Leon caused, not long after, Aaron and Rose left for the airport. Aaron got a call from Daniel informing him that something bad had happened at the office. Therefore, he must return to London as soon as possible.
"Call me when you reached London, Connery," Jack told Aaron was he leaving for the airport.
"Okay, you take it easy," Aaron answered quickly.
Jack smiled and turned to look at Rose. "Don't worry, lady, your future husband is a good person. Trust me, if he messes up and you need help beating him, I'm here to help you."
Rose chuckled. "Yes, Mr. Muller, I will remember your message."
Aaron patted Jack hard on the shoulder. "I'm not that kind of guy. You do know that well, don't you."
"Yeah, I know! Now hurry up and get in the car, don't let me hold you back any longer."
"Thanks, Jack, I'm so glad to see you back. Remember you have to come to our wedding, with Mr. David Clarke and all ..."
"Anne?"
Aaron's eyes widened. "She's your wife. Of course you're taking her, right?"
Jack smiled. He was now sure Aaron had forgotten about Anne. Jack hugged Aaron back tightly, while occasionally patting his back which Aaron occasionally replied. After Jack let go of Aaron and Rose's arms and got into the car that would take them to the airport, Mr. David Clarke gave Aaron a free ride back to London. He ordered his men to take Aaron back to London on one of his jets.
After the car carrying Aaron and Rose was gone, Jack then entered the house. He was happy because Aaron was with Rose, the girl he met when he was a child.
"You should be happy, Connery," Jack said quietly as he walked up the stairs to where his grandfather was with Luis.
Mr. David Clarke smiled as he watched Jack climb the stairs. "I'm glad you made friends with him, he seems like a good boy."
Jack stopped his footsteps when he heard his grandfather's words. He then turned towards the highway to see the convoy of cars carrying Aaron and Rose. "Aaron was one of my rivals to win Anne back then. But I enjoyed competing with him. He is sporty and willing to accept defeat and I'm so happy he finally got a partner, he should be happy with his life like me and Anne."
Mr. David Clarke and Luis opened their eyes wide at Jack's words. "So-so he is your rival?"
Jack chuckled. "Yeah, Grandpa, but don't worry, I'm the winner and Aaron has Rose now. I'm sure Aaron wouldn't dare mess with the Portuguese Defense Minister's daughter."
"Hopefully, you'd better see Anne. She hasn't had lunch yet, I don't want my favorite granddaughter to get sick."
"So I'm not your favorite grandson anymore?"
"Of course not, if you can give birth then you will be my favorite," answered Mr. David Clarke without guilt. He then ordered Luis to take him into the house leaving Jack wide-eyed.
Not long after that, Jack entered the house and rushed to Anne's room. As his grandfather said, Anne had not eaten lunch. When Jack went up the stairs, he smiled to see Erick and Nicholas were busy working in the living room with Alice, because Erick didn't want to go back to Switzerland yet, so he had to finish all his work in his spare time while working for Jack in Luxembourg, as Jack had to take care of the Clarke family company. Erick still wanted to be with Jack, as well as Alice who still didn't want to part with Anne.
Arriving in the room, Jack smiled when he saw Anne was still wrapped in the blanket. Lovingly, he smoothed Anne's hair that covered her face.
"Hey big baby, wake up, you need to eat," Jack whispered softly in Anne's ear.
Anne just squirmed and did not open her eyes. She was still very sleepy.
Jack chuckled at Anne's behavior. Although he couldn't bear it, but Jack tried to wake Anne from her sleep again.
"Ahh Jack..." Anne sighed in annoyance as she started to wake up from her sleep.
"Come on, wake up, you have to eat lunch."
"I'm not hungry, I just want to sleep," said Anne with her eyes still closed as she tried to push Jack's head away from his neck.
"No, you have to eat. I don't want you to get sick," Jack chuckled, his voice rising.
Anne slowly opened her eyes and looked at Jack who was above her. "Leon, is he still around?"
Jack shook his head. "He's been gone a long time, maybe even by now he's gone from Luxembourg. I kicked him out."
Anne bit her lower lip, looking scared and worried. "Did he talk to Grandpa before we came?"
Jack smiled. He finally realized where his wife was talking about. "Listen to me, my grandfather wasn't someone who lived in the royal era who considered one's status before he let the person enter and be part of his family. He is a very open modern man, so you don't have to worry about that. My grandfather doesn't believe that you are a widow anyway. There is no widow who is still a virgin, Anne."
Anne's eyes glazed over. "I'm serious, why are you even discussing that sob.."
"I'm serious, Anne. Grandpa is a very rational person. He can't immediately believe the words of a stranger who suddenly came to his house and claimed that he was the ex-husband of his granddaughter-in-law, even though it's clear that my grandfather knows how I got you. So there's no way he could believe the words of that bastard lion. After all, why should you even bother with his words? I didn't care about your status from the start. I've accepted you as you are. The most important thing is, I love you, so you don't have to think about what he said. Since I knew you were a widow, I've accepted you, Anne, especially after I found out that you are still pure. Just imagine how much I love and want you?"
Anne closed her eyes as tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
"No, Anne, you can't cry because of that damn lion again. I won't allow it," said Jack quickly, wiping the tears that rolled down Anne's face.
"I'm afraid you're going to dump me like Leon did to me, Jack," Anne muttered under her breath.
Jack immediately landed a kiss on Anne's lips. "No, that can't be happening. Even if I'm crazy, there's no way I'd do such a horrible thing, so don't talk nonsense."
Anne pushed Jack away from above her. "Liar, you've lied to me once Jack. There's no way you won't lie again someday."
"What do you mean? I don't understand, Anne."
Anne slowly got up and sat in front of Jack. "You promised never to leave me, but look at the fact! For two years you left me and forgot about me. Then do you think I should still believe in those sweet promises you made?"
"But that's different, Anne, it was the situation that made me like that. I swear to God there is not the slightest intention to leave you or forget you, Anne."
Anne's beautiful eyes stared at Jack without blinking. Even though Jack's words sounded beautiful, but for her, the words did not manage to touch her deepest heart.
