I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 309 - The Last Day



After Aaron decided to let Anne go, he became a different person. His friendly figure instantly disappeared and transformed into a colder man. And his changes scared all his employees, especially since he fired 20 people at once. No one dared to mess around in the office anymore, including Marissa and Kimberly Henderson. The two sisters refrained from continuing their plan to approach Aaron who was colder than the iceberg. They chose to remain silent and waited for the right time.

Daniel, who was always with Aaron, didn't feel a significant change. He was actually happy to see Aaron return to focus on his current job instead of having to think about love.

Meanwhile, Anne and Jack's relationship became closer after Linda and Paul's robbery. Jack really showed his power over Anne. In a short time, the robbers, who are ex convicts who have been in and out of prison, were caught two days after the incident. They were arrested while trying to sell Anne's car. And because the car turned into a bloody car, Jack finally chose to destroy the car to break the bad luck. He didn't want the same thing to happen to Anne if she used that car again. Therefore, he chose to destroy the car without asking for Anne's permission. 

Anne still couldn't accept that the latest red BMW car which was parked in front of the new apartment was bought by Jack for her. She insisted on rejecting the car and wanted her old car back. 

"This suits you, Anne. It's beautiful, classy, ​​luxurious, and fast. It fits your character very well." Jack again said the same sentence persuasively to make Anne accept the car he gave her. 

  Anne was still adamant. "I don't want this, I don't want this, Jack!!! Give me back my old car, I'll just use that."

"The car was destroyed. I have asked Erick to take it to a used car recycling place," Jack answered honestly. He couldn't bear to hear Anne's whimper asking for her old car back. 

"W-what did you say?!" 

"Anne, that car is a bloody car. The car has been used by criminals who had injured Linda and Paul. Although there was no blood in the car, but I'm sure the remnants of Linda and Paul's blood were stuck to the car. Do you still want it? Do you still want to drive a car that had injured your two closest people? Moreover, the car was also used by the criminals for two days, and all that time, we all don't know what they have done to the car. They might have used it to rob again or hurt other people, we don't know. That's why I decided to destroy the car completely so that the bad luck of the car ended," said Jack at length, explaining the reason for destroying Anne's first car. He looked very serious when he spoke. "And I don't want you to drive that car again. Even if you want to clean it a thousand times, to me that car is very dirty and I don't allow you to use it as long as I live. So I better destroy that car and now this BMW is your new car now and you have to accept it."

After talking like that Jack then got into his car, following Erick and Alice who were already waiting in the car. They had an important meeting today to attend, and as soon as Jack got in the car sped away followed by two other cars behind him full of Jack's personal bodyguards. 

Anne shook her head at Jack's explanation. She really couldn't understand the thoughts of the man who was now her lover. Even though Jack actually preferred to be called a fiance, Anne didn't want to call him that. She still wanted to have a relationship as a lovers, so that the same mistakes didn't happen again. Anne did not want to get the title of widow for the second time, therefore she was very careful in having a relationship with Jack this time, even though Jack had made it clear to her many times that he would never turn away from Anne, but still, she did not believe Jack's words as easily as that. 

"Arguing with him is indeed impossible. If I take this car to the office, people will definitely suspect me, especially Isabel and Gabriella. Bad gossip will definitely spread on campus if they both find out that I have a car like this," said Anne to herself, staring at her new car without blinking with her hands tightly gripping the car keys that had just been given by Jack. 

Because it was noon, Anne decided to take a taxi to go to work. In two weeks, the lectures would start and she automatically stopped working at Ganke Inc. Production. That was why she wanted to finish all her work as soon as possible before her tenure ended. Yesterday when she came to work for almost half a day she was tried by Leon. Leon was furious at Anne for not doing her job properly, after leaving the office without asking anyone's permission. Anne, who also didn't notify Leon the real reason why she left without saying goodbye, made Leon even angrier. Leon was angry as a leader and Anne accepted it gracefully, because as an employee she was indeed at fault. Moreover she just left without news and didn't leave any message, because after meeting with Linda and Paul at the hospital, Anne's thought was only focused on the situation of the two closest people. 

The fifteen minutes it usually takes to get to the office felt faster for Anne. For some reason, she felt that the trip to her office was faster this time. She felt like she had just sat in the passenger seat and suddenly she had arrived in front of Ganke Inc. Production, where she would spend her day for more than seven hours. 

"Anne!"

When she heard her name being called, Anne immediately turned to the source of the voice and smiled when she saw Edward running towards her. 

"Are you okay?" Edward asked quietly.

"Of course," replied Anne curtly with a smile on her face.

"I just heard everything yesterday when I was going back from the client's place. I really regret that it happened. Why don't you tell me, Anne, if you told the truth to Mr. Leon, maybe you wouldn't..."

"Never mind, Edward, I was wrong, so I accepted the consequences gracefully because it was me who was wrong," Anne immediately cut Edward's words quickly as she stepped into the office. 

"But you have a bad reputation, Anne. I'm afraid this incident will affect their judgment during your internship at this company and later you will have a hard time getting a bad image from the human resources department when we ended the internship. And it will be a big problem if Professor Gilbert knows, your grades will be really bad, Anne," Edward said worriedly. 

Anne stopped in her tracks and turned to Edward. "It's okay, Edward, if indeed the management of this company wants to give me such an assessment, then I can't forbid them, because they have the right to do that. And even if my grades are bad, it means I have to find another company next semester for an internship, it's that simple, Edward."

After speaking like that, Anne then continued her steps to enter the elevator which was almost closed, leaving Edward alone in the lobby. 

"It would be better if Leon fired me right now. That means I have 2 weeks to relax before continuing my studies again," said Anne in a hopeful heart with a smile. She didn't realize that in the elevator, someone who really hated her was standing right behind her. A friend who stabbed her in the back was carrying a suitcase which she would hand over to her husband in a moment. 

"You're done this time, Anne," the woman hissed softly in German.
