Chapter 595 - [Bonus ]The Anger Of A Wife 2
After Anne ca out, Jack imdiately sat on his chair. He was seen clenching his hands on the table. Jack still couldn't believe that Giselle actually liked him, while he had thought that Giselle didn't have any feelings for him. Because Giselle had always said that she was currently in a relationship with a man her parents introduced her to, so Jack was still in shock when he heard Giselle's confession a few monts ago. It turned out that what Anne said was true, Giselle really had feelings for him. Jack's thoughts were lost when Erick entered the eting room.
"Are you all right, sir?"
Jack smiled. "I'm fine, Erick. Just a little surprised. I really didn't expect Giselle to have feelings for . I thought she was sincerely friends with , I was so stupid. If I had known Giselle had feelings for , I probably wouldn't have co to her two years ago and asked her to replace Alice to be my secretary."
"It's only natural that you don't know, sir. For the past three years, your heart and mind were only filled with Madam, sir."
Jack chuckled. "Yeah, you're right. I've only had Anne's na on my mind for the last three years. So I didn't pay attention to anything else, but wait... Don't tell that you also know that Giselle likes ?"
"Of course I do, hehehe...."
"Damn! Does Nick also know that?"
"We all know it, sir. It would be a lie if we didn't know. It's just that we didn't have the courage to warn you because we believe you won't be tempted by Miss Giselle, seeing how tornted you must have been because Madam left," Eric answered quietly and carefully.
Jack was silent. He then scratched his head that didn't itch. "I really don't have any feelings for Giselle. I have always considered Giselle only as a friend. Even back when I was engaged to Sophia, she also ca and looked very happy to see Sophia wearing a ring from . Because of that I didn't think Giselle would have feelings for , Eric."
"Won are really good at hiding their feelings, sir. They were created to be invaders in our hearts," Erick said quietly without realizing it.
Jack raised an eyebrow. He felt sothing was wrong with his assistant. "You're not talking about Alice, are you?"
Erick imdiately stuttered when he realized his mistake. His face imdiately turned red instantly and it made Jack smile. The vibration of the cell phone in his jacket pocket made Jack finally stop his conversation with Erick. His smile broke when he saw who called him.
"We're already downstairs, do we go straight in or what?" ca the voice of a man Jack knew very well speaking loudly.
Jack chuckled. "Tell your secretary to lead the way. She knows my office very well."
"Damn! Don't start again, asshole. Alice is currently the secretary of the Connery Corporation, so don't provoke her," replied the man who was none other than Aaron in a raised voice, pretending to be angry.
Jack's laughter grew louder. "Co in, you're not a stranger. I'll be waiting in my private eting room."
Aaron's smile broke when he heard Jack's words. He then ended the call and imdiately put his cell phone into his shirt pocket again.
"Please lead the way, Alice," Aaron said quietly repeating what Jack had said earlier.
Alice, who had been lowering her face, was imdiately taken aback. "W-what sir? Did I hear you correctly?"
"No, you heard right. I asked you to lead our way to the bastard's private eting room. That's what he said earlier. The bastard ordered you to lead the way to his place," Aaron replied calmly without guilt. Aaron knew Alice still had feelings with Erick, because of that he forced his secretary to still co to the eting this ti, even though at first Alice flatly refused.
"B-but sir...."
"So you're refusing my orders, Alice?"
Alice imdiately shook her head quickly. After that, she then walked to the special elevator beside the employee elevator to go up to the 40th floor. Seeing Alice's behavior made Aaron shake his head slowly, so did Daniel. The two of them then followed Alice, who had been holding the elevator button down so it wouldn't close. Even though the eting would start in an hour, but Aaron couldn't wait to et Jack. Aaron wanted to see Jack's cute son, whom he had always been so proud of whenever they texted each other.
Just as the door to the special elevator carrying Aaron and his two crew closed, the door to the employee elevator beside the one for Jack opened. Anne, carrying her bag, ca out of the elevator alone. She wanted to get so fresh air as she had previously told Nicholas before leaving. She wanted to get rid of her annoyance at Jack, who she considered was defending Giselle, who had clearly insulted her. Giselle had not even apologized earlier when she left and Anne was still upset about it.
When Anne walked towards the exit, her steps stopped when she saw several black cars parked in front of the main entrance. Her eyes narrowed as she tried to find out who had co and she was surprised to see the figure of her ex-husband got out of one of the cars. Anne quickly turned her face the other way. She didn't want Leon to see her. Really, Anne just wanted to let go of the problem, not adding a new problem. Anne still rembered what Luis said yesterday. Luis had told her everything, including the reason why Jack was so angry with her that night. Although the main reason was not Leon, Anne realized that Jack's jealousy towards Leon was the one that caused the big fight to happen. Because of that, Anne tried to avoid face contact with her ex-husband, who was now walking with Benjamin Calum to the elevator that Anne had just use with several other n.
"Wait!, Leon and Benjamin Calum know each other," said Anne softly when she recognized the man who previously hugged Leon.
Anne was silent for a long ti in her current place. She seed hesitant to go back to Jack's room or get so fresh air like her original goal. However, after so consideration, Anne finally decided to get so fresh air. She didn't want to continue her fight with Jack because of Leon's presence. Currently, Christian was safe, there was Nicholas guarding him. After all, they were all in Jack's office which had the best security at the mont, so Anne decided to go and get so fresh air.
"Looks like I have to go to the mall. Maybe by looking at cute things at the mall, all my frustration will disappear," said Anne to herself. She then took out her cell phone and started looking for the mall that was closest to Muller Finance International.
Anne's smile broke when she managed to find a mall not far from the office. Without thinking, she rushed out of the side door so that her husband's n wouldn't find her out. As soon as she got out of her husband's office, Anne imdiately stopped a taxi and got into the taxi to go to the mall.
