I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 673 - Anne’s Guilt

Jack, who just arrived home, looked surprised when he saw the presence of Doctor Caitlyn, one of the family's private doctors who lived in Luxembourg and would only be scheduled to Geneva when Anne was 9 months pregnant.

"When did you come, Doc?" asked Jack, probing. Actually, Jack wanted to talk at length again but when he realized the change in the face of his wife who was sitting next to the doctor, Jack postponed sharing the questions that had been filling his head.

Because she had known Jack for years, Doctor Caitlyn also understood the meaning of Jack's gaze. "A few hours ago, Luis had some important things to tell me, and that's why I came. Isn't that right, Luis?"

"Y-yes, sir," answered Luis stammering. Luis, who did not know anything, had to be willing to be dragged into trouble.

Jack narrowed his eyes. "Okay then, I'll take a shower first, after that we'll talk again, Doc, and Luis, come with me upstairs. I want to give you some important files."

"Yes sir," said Luis quickly and immediately followed Jack up to the second floor.

Anne, who had been silent for a while, grabbed Doctor Caitlyn's hand. "Doc, remember your promise."

Doctor Caitlyn turned to Anne and smiled. "Yes, Anne, you take it easy. The important thing is that you remember my words carefully and don't repeat it again. Remember that Master is looking forward to the baby in your womb."

"Yes, I know, Doc, Jack really expects his daughter," answered Anne quietly in a barely audible voice.

"Don't put on a sad expression like that. It's only natural that you want your daughter so much. Losing his first moment as a father makes him expect a lot at this time, so you have to understand that. It's not that he doesn't love Christian," said Doctor Caitlyn gently trying to calm Anne. Doctor Caitlyn knew what was going on in Anne's mind right now.

Anne took a deep breath. "I don't know, Doc, the closer I get to my due date, the more I feel bad for Christian. I'm afraid I can't be fair to Christian, Doc."

Doctor Caitlyn squeezed Anne's hand gently. "Get rid of that feeling, there are many people who will help you look after and care for Christian. Right now all you need to think about is your daughter who is still in the tummy. Remember, Anne, don't stress too much. It's not good for you and your baby."

"Yes, Doc, I understand," replied Anne slowly with a long sigh.

Jack, who had not yet gone up to the second floor, listened to all the conversations between Anne and Doctor Caitlyn, and his suspicions grew even bigger. He was sure that the arrival of Doctor Caitlyn to his house must be because of important matters related to Anne's pregnancy. Because he didn't want to find trouble, Jack chose to continue his steps again following Luis who was waiting for him on the second floor.

Arriving on the second floor, Jack then handed a flash drive to Luis. "On that flash drive are all the Clarke family financial records, I want you to keep them in Luxembourg, Luis."

"Why don't you keep it yourself, sir?" Luis asked in confusion.

Jack smiled. "You are my grandfather's confidant, so I entrust everything to you. It seems everything will be safe if you keep it."

"Very well, I will save this file at your request, sir."

"Thanks Luis," Jack said softly with a smile. "Oh yeah, what about Giselle Allen?"

"It's safe, looks like the woman's father will marry off his son tomorrow morning."

"Good. It looks like one problem has been resolved properly. Then I don't need to deploy the Warriors this time," said Jack gratefully.

Luis pursed his lips. "You are getting wiser, sir, big master must be very proud of you."

"Hopefully, Luis, I'm just trying to be a good person. I'm going to have a daughter soon, Luis."

Luis patted Jack gently on the shoulder. "You have always been a good person, sir. Don't be afraid, what you are doing is a form of your efforts to maintain peace in your household. I am sure God will not be angry with what you are doing."

"I hope so, Luis. Well then, I have to take a shower. I have something important to talk to Doctor Caitlyn. Can you please take Christian to his room? I think my son is very sleepy downstairs."

"Ready sir, I understand," said Luis quickly and immediately rushed away from Jack to put Christian to sleep, who he had left at home the whole day while carrying out the tasks that Jack had given him.

Seeing Luis leave, Jack then went into his room to take a shower. Jack deliberately asked Luis to put Christian to sleep so he could talk freely with Doctor Caitlyn. When Luis came down, Anne and Doctor Caitlyn were talking about baby clothes.

"What's wrong, Luis?" asked Anne softly to Luis who was standing in front of her.

"I was ordered by Master to take the young master into his room," replied Luis politely.

Doctor Caitlyn, who understood Luis' words, then grabbed Christian from Anne's lap and handed him to Luis. "Careful, Christian just fell asleep."

"I understand, thanks, Doc," said Luis quickly and immediately rushed away from Doctor Caitlyn and Anne with Christian.

"Looks like you should rest too, Anne," said Doctor Caitlyn quietly as she turned to Anne.

Anne nodded her head. Assisted by the personal doctor, Anne walked to the elevator to go up to the second floor. Arriving at the room, Doctor Caitlyn helped cover Anne and made sure Anne slept comfortably.

"Sleep, don't think about anything. Your health comes first now, Anne."

"Yes Doc, I understand. Thank you," answered Anne slowly.

Doctor Caitlyn turned off the night light on Anne's side and rushed out of the room to avoid meeting Jack, who had just finished taking a bath. Even though she was the Clarke family doctor, Doctor Caitlyn still gave privacy to the master's family she served.

Doctor Caitlyn's choice to come out was right, because after the door was closed from the outside, Jack came out of the bathroom using only one towel to cover his lower body. Because Anne had already closed her eyes as soon as Doctor Caitlyn turned off her nightlight, she didn't see Jack, who looked very tempting. Playing all day with Christian plus the medicine Caitlyn had given her earlier, Anne fell asleep faster.

Jack himself, who didn't want to disturb Anne, went into the walk-in closet to look for his clothes. He couldn't wait to talk to Doctor Caitlyn. Jack wore the easiest clothes to wear. It was the casual clothes that he wore every day in the form of his favorite ripped jeans and black t-shit that made him look like a young man. Without combing his hair, Jack left the room and looked for Caitlyn's doctor who was apparently waiting for him in front of the room.

"Let's just talk on the balcony, sir," Doctor Caitlyn said quietly as Jack had just come out of the room.

Jack nodded his head and walked to the balcony where Anne used to relax with Doctor Caitlyn following behind. Arriving at the balcony, Doctor Caitlyn then told Jack everything, starting from Anne's excessive fear of her current pregnancy and the spots she was experiencing. At first, Jack was emotional when he heard that Anne had spots, but after Doctor Caitlyn explained the reason, Jack felt very guilty, because from the start, Anne really wanted to get pregnant right away.

"So what should I do, Doc? I can't let Anne stay like this. She has to focus on our baby who will be born soon. Not that I don't care about Christian, I really love him but for now, the baby is our priority," said Jack hoarsely.

Doctor Caitlyn smiled. "Don't worry. We can talk about everything with a cool head. About Christian, we can take him to Luxembourg. Let Luis take care of him for a while when the princess is born, I'm afraid that if Christian stays beside Anne, then her attention will be divided."

Jack immediately grabbed Doctor Caitlyn's hand and squeezed it tightly. "Okay Doc, I agree with your proposal. But..."

"But what?" asked Doctor Caitlyn, confused.

"But help me talk to Anne. A few months ago actually Luis had taken Christian away but at that time Anne became very worried and sad. I'm afraid I can't fight Anne if I told her this plan. That's why I ask you to talk to Anne. Usually a woman will find it easier to talk to other women."
