Chapter 417 - Missing The Master
Alice, who was gazing at the beauty of Tromso with the binoculars, was very surprised when she saw the figure of a man she knew very well was standing on the balcony wearing a white bathrobe while enjoying a cup of coffee.
The binoculars in Alice's hands fell and slid towards the ground.
Erick, who was staring at the ocean in front of him, was surprised to hear the sound of sothing quite hard hitting the asphalt. "What is it?"
With teary eyes, Alice looked at Erick. "I-I saw Master."
"You saw Master? What do you an?"
Instead of answering her lover's question, Alice raised her hand and pointed at the building where she had previously seen Jack. "That balcony! I saw Master was standing there, Erick."
Erick turned his head, following the direction of Alice's hand. His eyes narrowed when he realized that Alice was pointing at a hotel balcony.
"I think you're tired, Alice, let's just go ho to Mr. Antonio's villa. Tonight we still have a lot of activities," he said softly.
"I'm serious, Erick! I know Mr. Jack's face very well. And the person I saw earlier was him, it couldn't be anyone else." Alice again tried to confirm that she was well and was not hallucinating.
Erick smiled at Alice's words. "The balcony you're pointing at is a hotel. You know that a lot of people stay in hotels, especially in this season."
"But Eric..."
"Alice, I know you miss him just as much as I am. I almost go crazy to think about when he would return. But I can still use my reason, Alice, we are currently in Tromso. If that person is Master as you said earlier, why didn't he contact or his girlfriend, Miss Anne? Why would he be in this city, which is actually very far from England or Switzerland?"
Alice fell silent hearing Erick's words, she tried to think again with a cool head. Seeing Jack suddenly like that made Alice very shocked.
"I know Master very well. The first person he will look for must be Miss Anne and not soone else. So as long as Miss Anne doesn't tell that Master has et her, then it is certain that he hasn't co back yet," Erick continued his words in a hoarse voice. Talking about Jack always made him sad .
Alice felt guilty for making Erick sad. She then slowly moved her hands and hugged Erick's body. "I'm sorry. I didn't an to upset you."
"It's okay, I know Alice. Co on let's go back to the villa. It's snowing a lot too. I don't want both of us to get sick."
Alice nodded her head slowly in response to Eric's words. Not long after that, they decided to return to the villa while hugging, along with the two bodyguards who had been silent while listening to Alice and Erick's conversation. Actually, Erick almost shouted with joy when Alice said that she saw their master. But because his logic worked, Erick finally refuted his lover's words. For it was highly unlikely that they would et Jack in Tromso many miles from London, whereas for almost two years, he had mobilized his best n to search for Jack's whereabouts around the harbor and throughout the city of Portsmouth, where Jack had disappeared.
Erick's face suddenly beca gloomy when he rembered the tragic fate of his master's love relationship. "Miss Anne, I know you must really miss our Master. May God always take care of you wherever you are. Thank you for still believing that Master is still alive."

Alan, who previously drank with Nicholas at the bar, was seen carrying a glass filled with water and stood on the balcony of his room to calm himself down. Seeing Anne sleeping curled up with a pillow that was wet with her tears had made Alan's heart hurt so much. As long as he was outside the room, Alan inhaled a lot of oxygen and hoped that the tightness in his chest would disappear, but his hopes were in vain. There was no significant change with him. That was why he decided to go back into the room to talk to Anne. When Alan ca back into the room, he finally realized that Anne was sleeping crying.
"Who are you, Anne? Why do I feel like I don't want to lose you so much? What magic have you've given , that I can't turn away from you like this?"
Alan spoke to himself while kneeling right beside the bed, very close to Anne who had closed her eyes. Alan wanted to straighten the hairs on Anne's face, so she could sleep comfortably, but Alan canceled his intention when he heard Anne's moaning voice. Hearing her moan had made Alan's heart even sadder. He didn't understand why he felt this pain when he saw her cry. All this ti, when he dumped the won who had satisfied him, Alan had no guilt at all, even though the won were crying and screaming when he left. But now things were different, seeing Anne cry made him feel hurt too. It was a condition he couldn't understand.
"Go to sleep, my love, forgive my madness earlier. I'm just too afraid to lose you, Marianne."
Alan ended his words with a soft kiss on Anne's open palm. He deliberately kissed her palm so as not to make the woman wake up or be disturbed because of him
Alan carefully got up from the floor. He didn't want to make the slightest sound at the mont. Even when walking to the bathroom, he also chose to tiptoe. He tried to reduce the friction of his shoes with the hotel floor in order to maintain the silence of the room so that Anne could sleep soundly.
When he entered the bathroom, his eyes saw that Anne's clothes were torn in the trash, as well as the panty she had previously wore. Seeing one of the evidences of his ferocity to Anne a few monts ago, a wry smile appeared on his face. Still fully clothed, Alan went into the dry bathtub.
Alan leaned his head against the edge of the bathtub and looked out through the see-through glass in the bathroom. The snowflakes that began to fall heavily had made the glass a little blurry. He rembered his first eting with Anne. Even though it couldn't actually be called the first eting, because it was only Alan who saw Anne, he still considered it their first eting. At that ti, Alan's chest imdiately felt tight when he saw Anne smiling at her friend, even though at that ti Alan did not know who the girl who had made his heart beat ten tis faster, but the eting ant a lot to him.
"I will make you love , Anne, I swear. You are mine forever, so don't even think about separating from . Even if that man nad Jack cos, you will still be my woman. Alan Knight Clarke's woman," said Alan coldly with hardened jaws, recalling Anne's words about separating made Alan's anger flare up again.
