Chapter 171 - Between Two Choices

With bloodstained arms, Jack was being hugged by the beautiful woman he had helped. Ten minutes earlier, he and Erick were on their way to a restaurant to meet a new client of Muller Finance International. Jack accidentally saw a woman being harassed where he was now, where the woman was initially trying to check the condition of her car which suddenly broke down on the side of the road. And not long after, a man came and offered to help. Instead of providing help, the man turned out to have bad intentions.

Instead, he tried to humiliate the woman who was being afflicted with misfortune by groping her buttocks so that the poor woman screamed loudly for help. Jack happened to see the obscene scene in front of his eyes and immediately intervened as his emotions were sparked. Jack beat the pervert mercilessly and in no time the pervert was lying on the asphalt with a bloody face from being hit by raw punches from Jack.

"Sir, don't get your hands dirty with this man's blood. Let the police take care of the rest, stop it, Sir," pleaded the beautiful woman. The woman who had been helped by Jack begged him to stop what he was doing, because she didn't want his helper to get into trouble.

But Jack, who was really upset because of what had happened to him and Anne, ignored the woman's screams. He continued to throw his punches at the face of the perverted man who was already lying on the asphalt to vent his frustration. Seeing that, Jack was still eager to beat the man who had been bothering him, but the woman who had been helped by Jack immediately escaped from Erick's guard. She immediately ran and hugged Jack tightly in the hope that Jack would not launch his punch again.

Anne, who had just arrived and didn't know what was really going on, looked stunned when she saw a beautiful woman was hugging Jack. Her heart was beating fast when she saw what was in front of her. Not wanting to disturb Jack and his woman, Anne then decided to leave without saying anything.

"Anne." Jack muttered under his breath when he saw Anne, but because he was being hugged by the woman, he couldn't move.

"Please, Sir... stop," sobbed the woman who was helped by Jack.

"Y-yes Ma'am, now let me go," answered Jack quickly as he tried to free himself from the arms of the woman he had helped.

Once released, Jack immediately ran to look for Anne, but because of the many people in the place he could not find Anne.

"I'm sure it must be Anne, but why is she a little different?" said Jack to himself, recalling the figure of the woman in the hat that he had glimpsed earlier when he was still being hugged by the woman he was helping.

When Jack was trying to find Anne's whereabouts, suddenly a police car came on patrol. The police immediately found out what happened, Erick was calming the woman who was the victim of harassment and then explained what really happened to the police. The beautiful woman who turned out to be a rich widow from Canvey Island was also questioned by the police, armed with CCTV footage taken from the dashboard of the rich woman's car, the police finally named the man who is now unconscious because he received a beating from Jack as a suspect, and he was taken to a clinic for treatment before being prosecuted.

"Thank you for your help, I don't know what would have happened if you didn't help me earlier," said the beautiful woman who was still tearing up sincerely while shaking Jack's hand.

"You're welcome, Madam, I'm just doing what I can do. In the future, it's better for you to use a driver if you travel far, especially when it's late like this. We don't know what will happen on the road if you drive alone like this, Madam," Jack answered quietly.

"Yes sir, I was in a hurry because I wanted to go meet an old friend," said the beautiful woman who turned out to be forty-five years old, slowly trying to explain why she went alone.

"Well, then you just go with the police so that the police will take you back to the hotel where you are staying, Madam, I have to continue my journey again," said Jack slowly saying goodbye.

The woman who was helped by Jack smiled broadly while nodding her head. Jack then went with Erick to continue their journey to the restaurant where they would meet their new client. Usually, if someone took the law into their own hands, they would be questioned and taken to the police station, but because Erick had already explained what really happened to the police officers, finally they were allowed to leave. The cops were grateful to learn that Jack did that to teach a lesson to the man who had tried to harass the woman. Because in London, the perpetrators of such sexual harassment would be subject to a fairly severe punishment and that was why Jack was allowed to continue his journey, even though he had made the perpetrator of abuse battered.

"Such a good boy, it would be comforting to know him, Olivia," the beautiful middle-aged woman who was being helped by Jack thought as she continued to watch Jack leave.

"Oh God, wait.. wait sir. I don't know your name yet," the middle-aged woman shouted loudly as she ran towards Jack's car which was far away.

"Madam, stop, it's dangerous, Madam. Don't run like that on the streets like this, Madam," shouted a policeman who had previously talked to Erick.

The middle-aged woman looked disappointed when she couldn't figure out the name of her helper, even though she was already fascinated by his kindness. Because it was almost night, the woman went with the police to the hotel where she was staying, while her car which had broken down was towed by the tow car who was called by the police.

In her car, Anne tried to forget what she had just seen. She tried to make peace with herself not to get carried away by emotions. Anne turned on the radio to calm her feelings.

"It's okay, Anne, it's okay. Isn't this what you used to see when he was still working as your barista? So you don't have to worry. Get rid of all your dirty thoughts, you have to concentrate on thinking about your life now. Anne, keep your spirit up," said Anne slowly, trying to calm herself down.

"Anne, keep your spirit up! Ahhhhh!"

Anne screamed so loudly that it made Linda, who had been asleep, wake up instantly because she was surprised to hear Anne's scream which was quite loud.

"Sorry, Linda, sorry. I'm just excited," said Anne nervously. She forgot that Linda was beside her.

"Are you okay, Anne?" Linda asked probingly.

"Yes, of course," Anne answered quickly.

"Then why are you shouting like that? Are you still thinking about what Gabriella said that you were close to Aaron Sean Connery?" Linda asked again.

"Th-this has nothing to do with Aaron, don't bring up his name, Linda," said Anne nervously. Hearing Aaron's name made Anne uncomfortable.

Seeing Anne's awkward attitude made Linda smile slowly. She got up from her seat which she had lowered and sat up straight again beside Anne, who was still driving her car.

"Actually who do you choose Anne? Do you choose Aaron Sean Connery or the man named Jack?" asked Linda casually.

Screeech!

Anne immediately stepped on the brakes suddenly when she heard Linda's question. Her heart was beating very fast right now. Being asked that by Linda made Anne recall the words of the two handsome men who both had asked her to marry them.

"Anne, are you insane?!" shrieked Linda loudly as she clung to her seatbelt.

"We're just friends, Linda, just friends. Nothing special," said Anne quietly.

"You can't be like this, Anne, you have to choose one of them. You can't have two partners," said Linda quickly.

"I-I feel comfortable when I'm with Aaron, and when I'm with Jack I feel calm, I'm confused Linda. I-I'm afraid to make the wrong choice again," said Anne quietly, expressing her dilemma because two good men who both managed to sneak into her heart.
