Chapter 534 - Not Giving Up
Accompanied by Luis, who pushed a cart filled with ingredients to make K?sekuchen, Anne walked vigorously around the supermarket. Being in the crowd made the nausea and dizziness that had been bothering her instantly disappear.
"Is there sothing missing, Madam?" Luis asked slowly to Anne, as they walked in the fruit aisle.
Anne who was looking at the row of fresh fruits in front of her did not respond to Luis' words. She was too busy thinking about what fruit she wanted. Suddenly, all the expensive and fresh fruits looked unattractive in her eyes.
"These fruits are not fresh anymore, Luis, let's go sowhere else," said Anne slowly as she stepped back into the aisle of other fresh ingredients.
Luis raised an eyebrow. He then looked at the row of fresh fruits that Anne had just seen.
"Not fresh anymore? How co? These fruits have just arrived this morning." Luis spoke to himself as he continued to stare at the fruits in front of him.
"Luis!"
A call from Anne made Luis imdiately aware. He finally left the place and imdiately followed Anne who was standing in front of the aquarium that provided various types of fish and other marine animals.
"What's wrong, Madam?" asked Luis quickly as he stood behind Anne.
Instead of answering Luis' question, Anne slowly raised her hand and pointed at the small crabs. "What kind of human would eat baby crab like that, Luis."
"Huh?"
"Those baby crabs. They are immature and not old enough to die, why should they be caught, while there are definitely a lot of crabs bigger than that out there?"
Luis imdiately turned to the aquarium which contained hundreds of baby crabs cultivated and ready to be processed. "These baby crabs are from the cultivation, Madam, so it looks like they were deliberately sold at such a young age."
Anne bit her lower lip hard trying not to cry. She couldn't imagine how anyone could eat baby crabs like that. Without a word, Anne suddenly left the place and again left Luis with a cart full of ingredients for making K?sekuchen. Seeing the Madam walked away, Luis just let out a long sigh while shaking his head. With great patience, Luis finally walked quickly after Anne, who was walking to the cashier to make paynts.
"Isn't there sothing missing, Madam?" Luis asked quietly, trying to confirm to Anne.
Anne shook her head. "I think it's enough, making K?sekuchen doesn't require a lot of ingredients. And after this, let's grab a bite, Luis, I'm hungry."
Luis imdiately turned to Anne quickly. "But didn't we already eat, Ma'am?"
"Hmm but I'm hungry again."
"Okay, if you're hungry you can eat alone, Madam, I'll wait in the car. I'm still very full, Madam."
Anne was silent for a mont. She digested Luis' words. "Ok, I ate by myself. But are you seriously not hungry?"
"Seriously, Madam, I'm afraid I won't be able to drive the car if my stomach is filled with food again," Luis answered honestly.
Anne chuckled. "Okay, I won't force you. After this, you go back to the car, okay? I'll find a place to eat."
"Ready. Madam, after you're done, you can call ."
Anne nodded her head. After completing the paynt, Anne left Luis to find a place to eat. As Luis had said earlier, the two of them had actually eaten before circling in the supermarket for almost two hours. But Anne didn't really eat, she just ruffled the food without actually putting it in her mouth. Because of that, she was still hungry. She only chewed a few pieces of bacon that were in her salad. After that, she was busy with her cell phone while listening to Beethoven's songs, accompanying Luis to eat.
When Anne was walking alone, looking for a restaurant that she thought was delicious, Anne accidentally bumped into soone. Luckily, she did not fall. She managed to maintain her balance. Even though Anne's entire face went pale at this mont.
"Are you all right, Miss?"
"Yeah, I didn't ..."
Anne stopped her words when she managed to recognize the figure of the man in front of her, the figure of the man she had just bumped into.
"Leon," Anne hissed quietly.
Leon smiled. "Wow, what an extraordinary destiny that God created. Yesterday, you tried desperately to avoid , now you unexpectedly bump into . What an unexpected eting."
"This is not a eting, this is just an accident. After all, this is a public place, we don't know who we will et here," replied Anne curtly. She tried to tidy up her clothes because she felt uncomfortable being watched by Leon.
Leon chuckled. "Didn't you often say that our marriage was a destiny that we had to live with, but why are you now trying to deny this beautiful destiny, Anne?"
Anne's face imdiately turned red. Hearing Leon's words made her very angry. Anne could not bear to face Leon. Without speaking, Anne tried to turn her body and wanted to leave the place imdiately, but her movent was less fast than Leon who imdiately grabbed her arm.
"Leon!!"
"Five minutes, only five minutes, Anne. After that I won't bother you anymore." Leon imdiately cut off Anne's words.
Anne glared at Leon, she looked very displeased. Because she didn't want to be the center of attention, Anne finally decided to obey Leon's wishes. After waving her hand to release it from Leon's grip, Anne finally walked towards the small park in front of the mall. She didn't want to talk in the mall. She didn't want anyone to misunderstand them. Even though Leon actually wanted to take Anne to lunch, because Anne firmly refused her request, Leon couldn't do anything but follow Anne's wish to speak in front of the mall.
"Get to the point."
"Anne..."
"Ti is ticking, Leon!"
Leon took a deep breath seeing Anne's unfriendly attitude. Indeed, the Anne who was currently standing in front of him was very different from the Anne he t a few years ago.
"I want you to co back to , Anne," Leon said loudly without guilt.
"You're crazy!!" Anne scread spontaneously. "You better go to the ntal hospital or find a psychiatrist! You're out of your mind, Leon."
Instead of being angry at Anne's cursing, Leon actually smiled broadly. "I've been crazy, Anne, I'm crazy because of you. Since we t again in England, on campus two years ago I've fallen in love with you. And I want you to co back to . Calm down, Anne, I'm now single. Stefi, I have dumped that lowly woman, I've divorced her and you only have to file a divorce suit with Jack. Don't worry, Anne. My wealth is equal to Jack's, so you don't have to be afraid if…"
Slap!
Anne, who couldn't hold back any longer, imdiately threw a slap in Leon's face.
"You're ntally ill, Leon, go to the ntal hospital and don't bother . I'm already happy with Jack," Anne scread hysterically. She imdiately cald herself when she felt her stomach hurt. It seed that the child in her womb didn't like her talking to other n besides her father. Without another word, Anne hurried away from Leon's presence. Anne imdiately ran into the crowd, trying to block Leon's gaze from finding her again.
Leon touched his hot cheek. "We'll see, Anne, you will be mine. Sooner or later, Jack will throw you away."
