I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 702 - Help From An Old Friend

It had been a week that Anne and Jack left Geneva. Their whereabouts were completely unknown to anyone. Even the most powerful paparazzi in the country couldn't detect the whereabouts of the husband and wife. Erick completely blocked everyone's access to find the master and his wife.

Giselle, who had already canceled her plan to Japan, looked very annoyed when she didn't get a chance to approach Jack, as all access was cut off. From her cell phone number to Jack's personal email, there was nothing that Giselle could access. Therefore, she continued to force Leon who was in Berlin to come to Geneva immediately.

"I have arrived at the airport five minutes ago and am on my way to the hotel," Leon said quietly to Giselle on the phone while in the taxi that would take him to the hotel.

"Okay, I'll catch up with you this afternoon. I have to wait for my husband to leave first."

Leon chuckled. "Be a good wife, Miss Allen."

"Fuck you! Don't make trouble with me, Leon," said Giselle loudly.

Leon's laughter got louder and louder until finally Giselle turned off the phone unilaterally. Since knowing that Giselle was married, Leon had loved to tease her.

"Are you sure that woman can help us, sir?" Wayne Scott asked Leon quietly.

Leon, who had just put his cell phone in his pocket, slowly turned to Wayne the assistant. "Don't worry Wayne, this time I'm absolutely sure I won't fail. Giselle Allen is Jack's schoolmate for over 5 years. She knows Jack inside and out. That's why I can use her to help me separate Jack and Anne."

"Then what about her police husband?"

"Do you mean Frederick? From the information I know, the police is only using Giselle's family for his career, so I'm pretty sure he won't care about anything Giselle does," Leon answered confidently.

Wayne nodded his head slowly. As an assistant, he could only support whatever his master said, like this time, although what Leon was doing right now was very risky. Jackson Knight Clarke was not a random person who could be easily removed.

Without Leon and Wayne knowing, currently behind them there was another taxi following them. The taxi that was carrying a beautiful woman in the back seat was only separated by one car from the taxi Leon rode on.

"Where are we headed, Miss?" asked the taxi driver politely to his beautiful passenger.

"Wherever the two men's taxi stops," the beautiful woman replied politely.

"Yes, Miss."

The atmosphere of the taxi was quiet again. The taxi driver continued to concentrate on seeing the road so as not to lose track. Meanwhile, the beautiful passenger, who was none other than Steffi, looked back at her cell phone which was showing photos of Anne and her family.

"Give me a chance to atone for all my mistakes to you first. At least, give me one word of apology before I leave, Anne," Steffi said hoarsely. Her eyes seemed to be full of suppressed tears.

Steffi decided to follow Leon to Geneva after learning about the plan of her ex-husband who wanted to destroy Anne and Jack's marriage. Since knowing she wouldn't live long due to an illness that plagued her, Steffi decided to enjoy life as well as possible for now. But after finding out that Leon still wanted to annoy Anne, Steffi finally decided to stop him. At least, for the rest of her short life, Steffi could do something good for Anne, after what she did to her helper.

While looking at Christian's photos, Steffi suddenly felt an excruciating pain in her stomach again. She immediately looked down, holding her stomach.

"Miss, are you all right?" the taxi driver asked worriedly.

"It's okay. I just have a normal stomach ache. Just continue our journey and don't lose track of the taxi in front," said Steffi hoarsely.

"Yes ma'am, I understand."

Steffi smiled and tried to sit still. Her hands were still on her stomach which at this moment still felt like it was being sliced ??into pieces. After being diagnosed by the doctor as having leukemia, Steffi's condition had decreased drastically. She would experience pain without symptoms like she was experiencing today. Steffi's leukemia had reached stage three and she had absolutely no intention of taking any treatment, Steffi hoped that by enjoying the pain that plagued her, God would forgive all the mistakes she had made in the past.

"You're strong, Steffi, you're strong. Hold on, you have to give your apology to Anne," Steffi said to herself when she finished drinking the medicine she took out from the bag that she previously held on her lap.

Crash!

The tray beside Anne suddenly fell, making a very noisy sound. Jack, who was watching the workers who were installing the equipment to make cookies in the kitchen, immediately came out and approached Anne.

"What's wrong?" Jack asked confused.

"I accidentally dropped the tray, Jack," said Anne quietly, her eyes were still on the tray on the floor.

Jack smiled. He grabbed the tray made of melanin and put it back on the table.

"Be careful dear, if you're tired, it's better to rest. There are not many customers, so you'd better relax," said Jack gently while stroking Anne's face, which already looked fuller.

Anne nodded her head slowly in response to Jack's words. Jack went back to the kitchen leaving Anne alone. After Jack left, Anne then sat on the chair near the cash register. Slowly, she took out her cell phone from the apron she was wearing.

Anne texted Alice and Luis, asking about their condition. For some reason, Anne suddenly had a bad feeling, an uncomfortable feeling that Anne had never felt before.

"Yes, Luis," said Anne quietly when she received a call from Luis who immediately contacted her after receiving a message from her.

"What's wrong, Madam? Why are you suddenly talking like that?" Luis asked quietly trying to ask about the message that Anne had sent to him a few moments ago.

Anne took a deep breath. "I don't know, Luis, I just don't feel well. That's why I called you."

"Everything is fine, Madam. Don't worry, everything has been well taken care of by all of us. The most important thing right now is your health and Master's, don't think about anything else, Madam."

Anne was silent. She bit her lower lip slowly while digesting Luis' words. What Luis told her was true. She should have focused on healing her psychic wounds so she could reunite with the people she loved like before. Anne and Luis' conversation stopped when a customer came. Anne, who really appreciated her customers, then end the call with Luis and served two customers who ordered vanilla latte.

"Calm down, Anne, everything is fine. God will take care of you and the people you care about at this time, God will definitely not let you lose again," said Anne to herself while making vanilla latte ordered by the two young girls who had just returned from the academy.
