I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 558 - Lost Before The War

Rip…!

Jack immediately removed the earpiece that was attached to his ear when he heard a loud tearing sound.

"Shit...what is she doing with ..."

Jack's words stopped when he heard the sound of women's shoes approaching towards him. Suddenly, Jack turned to the source of the sound and was surprised to see Anne. His eyes immediately fell on the slit in the dress that Anne was wearing, the slit with the length up to the thigh made Anne look even more beautiful. And actually Anne regretted her actions because at the moment, she looked even more stunning with the existence of the slit she made on her dress.

Nicholas stopped his steps when he reached Jack. He bowed his head to pay his respects to Jack.

"Okay, you can go, Nick."

Nicholas did not speak in response to Jack's words. He only made a gesture before finally left the place, leaving the master with his wife.

"Come here," Jack said quietly, holding out his hand to Anne.

Anne, who was already annoyed, ignored her husband's outstretched hand. Instead, she walked back and sat on the chair that had been prepared. Being ignored like that by Anne didn't make Jack angry. He just smiled. Anne's beauty tonight made his mood even more exciting.

"Tell me what do you mean by doing all this?" Anne immediately released the question she had been holding back all day.

Jack, who had just touched his chair and had not had time to sit down, smiled at the question from the woman he missed so much. "I haven't even sit down, Anne, is it appropriate for us to start a conversation while I'm still standing?"

"Tsk... you've always been good at talking," said Anne curtly.

Jack smiled as he sat down in his chair. "Thank you, I take that as a compliment."

"You're crazy."

Jack's smile grew wider when Anne called him crazy. There wasn't the slightest hint of anger on his face. Calmly, Jack reached for the glass of wine in front of him and drank a little without offering Anne, because actually it was useless because Anne would not be able to drink. The woman couldn't touch alcohol and... wait! Anne grabbed the wine bottle and immediately poured its contents into her empty glass and immediately drank it all down. Damn! Since when did she start drinking?

"Why? Surprised to see me drinking?"

Jack narrowed his eyes. "Since when can you drink?"

"It's none of your business. You better answer my question quickly. What do you mean by all this? What do you want? Did what you do before is not enough to satisfy you? So now you come back and mess up my life again?" Anne threw questions at Jack.

Jack was ready to open his mouth but his words were stopped because several waiters came to bring their dinner. Anne herself immediately put the wine glass she was still holding on to the table and leaned her body against the chair as she watched the waiters work with her hands folded across her chest. Seeing Anne's attitude which was very different from the Anne he knew, Jack smiled. His wife was getting mature and smarter to carry herself. After three minutes had passed, at the moment there were high quality beef steaks served on the table. The dish's aroma immediately made the worms in Anne's stomach react. She was hungry because she had not eaten anything since noon. Thinking of Christian's whereabouts had made her lost her appetite, and at the moment she tried to calm down, holding back her sudden hunger because of the damn steak in front of her.

"We'd better eat first, the taste of this steak will decrease when it's cold," Jack said quietly as he reached for the knife and fork beside the plate.

Anne still didn't lower her hand. Her gaze was still on Jack. "Why do you like wasting time, Jack? Get straight to the point or tell me where Christian is. I'm taking my son home from this hotel."

"Don't forget, Anne, Christian is also my son," said Jack casually as he stuffed the piece of meat into his mouth.

Anne growled. "Don't admit what's not yours, Jack, Christian is . . ."

"He's my son, Anne! He's not a transferable property. Watch your words!" Jack cut Anne's words in a rising voice.

Anne pursed her lips. She was no longer afraid to hear Jack's scream like that. Her heart was frozen now so that she no longer felt the pain of Jack's actions or words.

"You're too late to recognize Christian as your son, Jack, since that night you kicked me out, Christian is already mine completely. So don't act like a hero by coming here all of a sudden and giving my son all the fun and luxuries. You don't need to do that, Jack, because I can do it myself. I'm used to taking care of my son without your help, so don't interfere in my business," said Anne without pause, her breath was rising and falling as she spoke, showing a great sense of anger at the man in front of her. Anne seemed to make it clear to Jack that she and Christian didn't need him.

Jack swallowed the piece of steak after Anne finished speaking. He slowly grabbed the napkin beside him and wiped his lips gently.

"Okay, if that's what you want, then don't blame me for being rude. I'll fight for custody of Christian in court. We'll see who wins."

Bam!

Anne hit the table with both her hands firmly.

"Okay! I'll wait for the summons from the court as soon as possible then, Mr. Clarke," replied Anne calmly challenging Jack.

After saying that, Anne then got up from the chair and hurried away from in front of Jack. However, her steps were suddenly halted when she saw many men dressed all in black in front of her, blocking her steps. Anne forgot that in front of her right now were not ordinary bodyguards. They were the Warrior assassins who were very submissive to Jack and would do all Jack's orders.

"I thought you were getting smarter by now, Anne, but apparently you're not," said Jack quietly with a smile.

Annoyed, Anne immediately turned to Jack. "What else do you want? Our conversation is over, we'll see each other again in court, right? Okay, I'll deal with it, what else do you want?"

"Serve me... hmmm I'll consider it."

"Don't distract, Jack!!" Anne screamed loudly.

Jack chuckled in amusement when he saw Anne was angry. He did that on purpose to tease his wife.

"You forgot that we're not divorced yet, Anne, so we can't sue each other. But I'll still be the winner if we take this to the court. Do you know why? Because I can sue you for what you've done all this time. I'm Christian's real father who are legal in the eyes of the law and religion, but why don't you give my last name to Christian? Why are you even using your father's last name for my son?"

Anne froze. She couldn't answer the question Jack gave her. It was a question she didn't take into account at all.

Seeing Anne was speechless, Jack smiled faintly. He slowly got up and walked over to Anne who was two meters away from him. When he arrived in front of Anne, Jack then wrapped his arms around Anne's waist and pulled her towards him so that their bodies were pressed against each other.

"I told you from the start, you and Christian will come back to me. So don't fight and now we'd better continue our dinner, because I'm so hungry, especially when I see you like ..."

Anne pushed Jack so hard that Jack finally let go of his arms.

"I hate you, Jack!" said Anne angrily.

Jack chuckled. "Okay, I accept that, but I can make sure that your hatred will disappear soon."

Anne ignored Jack's words. She preferred to sit in her chair again and immediately sliced ??the steak roughly on her plate. Seeing what his wife was doing, Jack shook his head. He grew even more passionate at the unchanged Anne.
