I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 210 - Let The Game Begin

Hearing Jack\'s words made Anne choke, even though she wasn\'t drinking or eating. Just this afternoon Jack wanted her to be Mrs. Muller, and now he was asking her to marry tonight because he knew that tomorrow morning she would be working at Leon\'s Ganke Inc Production office.

"Don\'t talk so randomly like that, Jack." Anne immediately responded to Jack\'s words, stammering.

"I\'m not just talking randomly, Anne, I\'m serious. The important thing is that we are legal before God, Anne, so that I can be sure and not worry about you being snatched by that lion bastard," answered Jack seriously. His eyes were fiery when he spoke like that.

"Give me your trust, Jack. I\'m not the Anne that used to be, who immediately agreed to Grandma Catherine\'s request to marry Leon without thinking. I can\'t possibly make the same mistake. You know I\'ve failed in a marriage, right? That\'s why I don\'t want to go through the same thing again, Jack, I don\'t want to fall in the same hole. It\'s not that I doubt your sincerity, it\'s not that. It\'s just that I\'m still not ready to have to live a marriage life again, especially now that I\'m still in college. I know you will allow me to go to college to continue my education as you said before, but it feels different, Jack. I want to achieve my goals with my own efforts, with my hard work. And about Leon\'s problem, I reiterate to you once again, he doesn\'t mean anything for me. The day he betrayed me, he disappeared without a trace inside here." Anne ended her words while patting her heart gently. She slowly reassured Jack. She knew that he was very worried but she was sure she could handle Leon well. Especially now that Anne knew that Leon was chasing after her, it would be easy for her to control Leon.

"Are you sure you can handle that bastard lion well?" asked Jack hoarsely.

"Yes, trust me." Anne quickly answered his question confidently.

Jack, who initially wanted to take her to marry him tonight, immediately smiled when he heard Anne\'s words. He had never seen Anne so confident after two years he had known her. Moreover, this was concerning Leon, which incidentally was the past that was the most difficult for Anne to forget because it had caused the deepest wound in her.

"I trust you.? Please, take good care of my trust. Remember, Anne, you are currently my future wife. The future Mrs. Muller, so please pay attention to your attitude and take care of your heart for me. Because only I can fill that space in your heart, and don\'t ever try to think of another man, because if that happens I will be very angry with you and drag you right then and there to the altar to get married, whether you want to or not," said Jack earnestly.

"Yes, I know, I can\'t possibly dare to do that. I don\'t want to be forced to marry you that way," Anne squeaked softly, as she pursed her lips and made her look even more adorable.

Jack, who really couldn\'t control himself by Anne\'s side, finally decided to start his car again and continue their journey to Anne\'s apartment, which was not too far away. After driving the car for ten minutes, Jack and Anne finally arrived in front of the apartment lobby. Jack decided to go straight home. And this was the first time he had refused to be invited by Anne into the apartment, even though before that he would have gone straight down and joined her into her apartment without hesitation. But this time, Jack refused Anne\'s invitation because he did not want to make himself even more tormented. Anne had managed to ruffle his heart and made him almost crazy. The only thing Jack wanted to do today was to go home and take a cold shower to quell the fire that was burning inside him.

After Jack\'s car was out of sight, Anne then entered the apartment building, lingering in the midst of the piercing cold air that made her nose run a little. Especially she had already walked for quite a while when she left the grave area of ??Aaron\'s parents today. Running a little, Anne came out of the elevator to her room which was at the end of the hall. Without waiting, Anne entered her room and immediately turned on the heating. She immediately sat on the sofa without removing Jack\'s socks and coat which were still attached to her body.

"Is what I\'m doing right, God? Am I not wrong if I start opening my heart to Jack? Is this the right time for me to be able to start a relationship again with a man, God?" Anne spoke softly unconsciously as she recalled what Jack had said earlier, where Jack had already decided that she belonged to him now.

Anne\'s annoyance when Aaron left her at the grave alone immediately disappeared when she met Jack, especially since Jack treated her very well at the restaurant today. The waiters even smiled when they saw Jack treating her like a fragile princess at the pizza restaurant, a treatment she had never received from any man. Because, indeed, all this time she had never been in a romantic relationship with any man before marrying Leon or after divorcing him, therefore all of Jack\'s actions today were very memorable for her.

Since tomorrow morning she had to get up early and go to work, Anne finally decided to take a shower before going to bed. After making sure the door to her apartment was locked, Anne then went into the bathroom. And right after she entered the bathroom, suddenly her cell phone rang. Apparently, Aaron was calling her. Aaron was currently under Anne\'s apartment building. He didn\'t get out of his car because he saw that the lights in Anne\'s room were still off. He knew that Anne was afraid of the dark, which was why he was sure that Anne was not home yet. He didn\'t want to go up to Anne\'s apartment again like that time, he didn\'t want to be the center of attention from Anne\'s neighbors anymore, because he kept knocking on her door.

"Where are you, Anne? Why didn\'t you pick up my call? I want to apologize to you, Anne. I\'m guilty of leaving you at the graveyard earlier. I\'m sorry, Anne, please pick up my phone. Let me apologize to you," Aaron was talking to himself in his car as he continued to stare at Anne\'s window, which was still dark.

Earlier after Aaron left the graveyard, he returned to the place to look for Anne not long after. But when he arrived at there, Aaron couldn\'t find her. After he searched almost the entire area of ??the graveyard with Daniel and two graveyard attendants for almost ten minutes, Aaron finally gave up as the snow was getting heavier. He was sure that Anne had left the graveyard. That was why Aaron decided to look for Anne but couldn\'t find her until so late at night.

After waiting for almost twenty minutes without an answer, Aaron finally decided to leave Anne\'s apartment. Today he had been outside for a very long time and that was not very good for him because the air was very extreme and it was enough to make him catch the flu at this time. Because he didn\'t want to get sick, Aaron drove his car to his luxury house with a deep sense of guilt.

"I hope after you read my message, you\'ll call me, Anne," Aaron said hopefully as he continued to drive through the cold night.

Meanwhile, Leon, who was still in his office, was seen doing his final check in the new room that Anne would use tomorrow. He really couldn\'t wait for tomorrow morning. Without anyone knowing, Leon was seen putting a set of makeup boxes from one of the famous makeup companies in Paris in Anne\'s desk drawer. He also placed a note on it.

"I\'m sure Marianne will be impressed with everything I\'ve prepared." Leon spoke to himself while smiling at the work of the labors he had hired to decorate the new room for Anne.
