I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 666 - Lovey Dovey 



Anne's plan to go shopping failed because she met Chester and his daughter, Charlotte. Right now, she was even just sitting in a comfortable chair in the children's play area watching Christian and Charlotte, who were playing in the area, with Chester who sat beside her. While Luis and the other members of the Warriors circled the play area, making sure no other children were playing in the place, except for Charlotte and Christian, as well as Chester's men seemed to guard the area so that no one saw Chester's closeness to Jackson Knight Clarke's wife, who was pregnant.

"Congratulations again on your second pregnancy, Anne. I didn't think when we first met you were already pregnant with Christian's sister," Chester said quietly while sipping coffee.

"Thank you. Actually, at that time I didn't even know I was pregnant. Oh yeah, how about Charlotte's health? I see she's getting bigger and smarter." Anne tried to divert the conversation by discussing Chester's daughter who was currently playing with her son in the ball pool.

Chester smiled. "Actually this is our first day in Geneva. For over 5 months, I brought Charlotte to move to New York to be close to the UN Headquarters there."

"So you're moving to New York?" asked Anne, surprised.

Chester nodded his head. "Yeah, I had no other choice but to bring Charlotte to New York with me. I couldn't have left her alone in Geneva with her nanny. Her kidnapping at that time made me really traumatized by trusting her in someone else. That's why I decided to move her even though my parents forbade it."

"Who was taking care of Charlotte when you go to work?" 

"I brought Charlotte to work. I have prepared a special room. In that place, there are also several freelance daily employees who help me take care of her, so during work I feel calm because Charlotte is beside me," Chester answered slowly with a smile, but his eyes hinted at something else and Anne could feel it.

Anne was silent. Her chest hurt after hearing Chester's words about Charlotte. She couldn't bear to see a child as small as Charlotte having to go to the office with her father. Her motherly soul was hurt knowing that.

"My daughter is strong, Anne, you calm down. You don't have to worry like that," Chester said with a smile.

Chester's words made Anne wake up from her daydream. She then smiled and drank her green tea which was getting cold.

Seeing Anne drank her tea, Chester then got up from his seat. The man then walked towards the play area where Charlotte was currently laughing happily while playing with Christian. The two children looked very close, as if they had known each other for a long time even though this was their first meeting.

"It feels so good to be a kid, to be able to laugh and smile like that without a burden," Chester said quietly talking to himself next to Luis.

Luis turned and smiled at Chester, a young man who became an important person in an important organization in the world. "Believe me sir. Those kids say the same thing. They always say that they want to grow up soon."

Chester pursed his lips. "Jackson Knight Clarke is very lucky, he has the perfect family. A very beautiful wife, a perfect son, and is currently expecting his second daughter. Ah, that really makes anyone jealous."

"All the things that Mr. Jack currently has did not come straight from the sky. There is a lot of effort and struggle that he has to put in to get to this point. Just like you, you have to fight from the bottom to get to be in the position of secretary general of the UN today," Luis replied quickly. Luis deliberately spoke like that to make Chester realize that the happiness that Jack was getting right now was not instantaneous.

"The love story of Mr. Jack and his wife is much more complicated than a puzzle, much stronger than stone. The two of them have been separated many times by circumstances in that short period of time, but because of the trust and sincere love between the two, it's finally as you can see now. Both of them can live happily with their son and a daughter who is coming," added Luis again as he raised his hand to Christian, who was inviting him into the play area.

Chester's mouth immediately locked tightly. He couldn't say anything at this time. Chester felt Luis' words were too much, he didn't believe in such things in this world. Trust, mutual loyalty, sincerity were all bullshit. For Chester, there was no such thing, because he had proved himself. Because if true love existed, there was no way he would lose his wife. The woman who gave birth to her daughter, apparently chose to end her life rather than living with him raising Charlotte, their love child.

"You're a good writer, Luis," Chester said sarcastically.

Luis immediately raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean, Mr. Lloyd?"

Chester chuckled. "There is no such thing in this world. All humans living in this world are not truly sincere. All relationships are purely because of reciprocity and mutual benefit, love is just a classic Disney fairy tale that cannot exist in the world."

"Why do you talk like that? When you married Charlotte's mother, was it not out of love?" asked Anne suddenly in response to Chester's words.

Chester's face immediately turned red when he heard Anne's question. His anger immediately faded when Anne was standing beside him, while previously he was very fiery when he talked about love with Luis.

"I-I..."

"Babe!!"

Suddenly, there was a shout from a man whose voice Anne had already memorized by heart. Anne immediately turned to the source of the voice and smiled when she saw her husband was walking quickly towards her.

As soon as he arrived in front of Anne, Jack immediately hugged her tightly. "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you wanted to go shopping? I can come with you, babe."

Anne patted Jack gently on the back. "I can't breathe. Take your arms off of me."

Without being ordered twice, Jack immediately released his arms from Anne's body, he then gently touched both of Anne's cheeks.

"How about now? Much better, right?"

Anne nodded her head. "Yes Daddy, We can breathe very well," replied Anne quietly imitating a child's voice.

Jack chuckled. "You're so adorable, I love you, babe."

"I love you more."

Jack caressed Anne's face gently. He forgot the presence of Chester Lloyd who was watching the lovey dovey couple in front of him.
