Chapter 519 - [Bonus ]Ingrained Evil Trait

After dinner, Anne was invited to sit together with David Clarke in the garden. Neither Luis nor Jack were there. There were only Mr. David Clarke and Anne in that place.

"May I ask you something, Anne?"

Anne lifted her head and looked at the kind old man in front of her. "Of course, Grandpa."

"Since this afternoon or rather after the arrival of Leonardo Ganke, your attitude immediately changed, you became quiet and didn't want to talk to anyone. Even I feel like you're avoiding me. Don't you consider me your grandfather, Anne?"

Anne's tears immediately fell upon hearing the words of Mr. David Clarke. She felt so guilty.

"Ever since I knew Jack approached you the first time, I looked for information about you. I knew you were a good girl, especially after I found out about the fact that you and Jack had a relationship before. Because of that, I was even more excited to make you the daughter-in-law in this house. So don't feel like you're a stranger, Anne. I don't care about that man who came this afternoon. For me, he is just a person who does not like to see your happiness and Jack's, so don't be sad anymore. We are your family, Anne, don't be afraid," added Mr. David Clarke again, while patting Anne gently on the shoulder.

Anne slowly lifted her face and looked at her grandfather. After feeling calm, Anne then told everything to Mr. David Clarke, from the beginning of her meeting with Jack at Newcastle Upon Tyne shortly after she divorced Leon.

"Chaterine Ganke, the name sounds familiar to me," said Mr. David Clarke slowly in response to Anne's words.

"From what I know, Grandma Catherine was a fairly well-known painter in Germany when she was young, but after an accident at the age of 15, she finally stopped painting and continued her family business. However, she still often came to art galleries to see the paintings over there."

Mr. David Clarke's eyes widened perfectly. "I remember, it's true that Chaterine Ganke was a painter who was quite famous in Germany but because she had an accident which she said was a sabotage by the people who were jealous of her, she ended up not being able to paint anymore. Oh my God, it's such a small world after all. It turns out that you know that woman..."

Anne swallowed her saliva slowly. "Do you know Grandma Catherine?"

"Yes, I know all of her paintings when she was still painting. It was your grandmother who really liked Chaterine Ganke's paintings. They even often went together when your grandmother visited Berlin. Therefore, I know who Catherine Ganke is. Oh yes, how is she now, Anne? I'm sure she must be about my age by now," replied Mr. David Clarke excitedly.

"A few weeks after my divorce, Grandma Catherine died. She died after giving me some money to provide for life after separating from Leon. She loved me very much, she even cared for me more than Leon," said Anne quietly.

Mr. David Clarke was silent for a long time. Then he smiled and took Anne's hand and squeezed it gently. "You deserve to be loved, Anne, you are a good girl. Come on, don't think about Leon anymore. Trust me, your husband is very jealous, Jack will be very angry if you think about Leon."

"You're not angry after knowing my past?" asked Anne quietly.

"I have made one big mistake decades ago and now I don't want to repeat it again. You deserve to be happy, Anne, and again Jack is very crazy about you. The proof is when he doesn't remember who he was, when he was just Alan, he is still very obsessed with you. What else would you call that, other than destiny, Anne?"

Anne's tears again flowed from her eyes. She was touched. She did not expect a rich David Clarke to not care about her status. All the burdens that had been tormenting her for the last 8 hours were instantly gone. Her shoulders felt very light now, her fear was completely gone. From a distance, Jack stood and looked at Anne and his grandfather. He seemed nervous, as he paced back and forth in front of Luis and his two assistants, while Alice only smiled at her agitated master. She was determined to tell Anne about this later.

Jack's anxiety disappeared when he saw Anne was walking towards them while pushing his grandfather's wheelchair. Luis immediately ran to Anne.

"Leave it to me, Miss."

Anne smiled. "It's okay Louis."

Luis immediately took over Mr. David Clarke's wheelchair. At the same time, Jack had also joined them and immediately held Anne's hand. His eyes showed great concern.

"What took so long?" Jack protested to Anne.

Mr. David Clarke chuckled. "I borrowed her for only 30 minutes, Jack, why are you in such a panic?"

"I'm not panicking, just afraid she'll get sick, you know, talking in the park in this weather." Jack tried to cover up his fear.

"Come on, it's all over. Let's go in. Like you said, the air is getting colder, it's better to go inside," said Mr. David Clarke again.

"Yes, Grandpa."

Luis then pushed his master's wheelchair into the house, while Anne and Jack walked leisurely behind Luis. Even though everything she feared didn't happen but Anne still didn't like Jack. Without saying a word, Anne immediately let go of Jack's hand which was on her waist and immediately walked quickly after Luis, leaving Jack looking confused.

"Oh God, what did I do wrong?" Jack muttered softly as he looked at Anne who continued to walk away from him. After taking a deep breath, Jack continued his steps into the house following his grandfather and wife.

< Berlin, Germany >

Crash... crash... crash...!

All the items in the living room of Leon's mansion were shattered on the floor after being hit by a golf club that Leon swung blindly. He was really very angry right now. He really felt humiliated when he was forced to leave Luxembourg which was directly on the border with Germany.

"You bastard, Jackson Patrick Muller! Why don't you just die? Damn it, you bastard! How dare you marry Marianne and kick me out of Luxembourg!"

"Fuck! Wait for my revenge, Jack! Just wait and see. There's no such thing as failure in Leonardo Ganke's life, what Leon wants will definitely come true, including having Marianne again, she was my woman from the start. So you can't have her."

Crash!

A rare urn from China which was one of his late grandmother's collection was shattered when it was hit by Leon's hard hit again. He didn't care how many expensive items had been destroyed in his hands. He needed to vent his frustration to the end. From the door, Wayne could only be silent watching his master destroy the whole house.

From the front yard, the sound of broken antique jars could be heard clearly. A beautiful woman in shabby clothes was standing behind a tree and staring at Leonardo Ganke's house. The woman's lips thinned when she heard several of Leon's bodyguards whispering to each other, talking about their angry master.

"If I am destroyed, then you are destroyed, Leon, I will not allow you to live happily. I will get my revenge on you for all this treatment of yours."
