Love Worth Fighting For

Chapter 206

206 Meet Elena

Because he had already promised Anne, Jack was finally at the airport early in the morning. Jack, who actually had an important meeting this afternoon with one of his clients, decided to leave early so that he would be back in Geneva before lunch. Accompanied by Erick, Jack boarded one of his best jet planes to fly to Luxembourg.

“As long as we are in Luxembourg, Nicholas will handle all your work, sir,” Erick said quietly when Jack had finished fastening his seat belt.

“That’s good then, tell him to prepare for the meeting this afternoon. Also tell him that we’ll be home before two o’clock in the afternoon,” Jack answered quietly.

“Yes sir.”

Jack loosened the tie around his neck, returning to having to travel when the sun had not yet fully risen made him feel a little uncomfortable. If it weren’t for Anne, Jack wouldn’t want to do this. Especially just to see the condition of Elena, a poor girl who has made her beloved daughter suffer.

After the pilot greeted Jack and the other passengers, the jet that could accommodate fifty people began to fly away from Geneva for Luxembourg where his proud son lived. Even though Jack and Anne had a long history in Luxembourg, Jack still decided to stay in Geneva, the place where he was born and grew up so that he could finally resume Muller Finance International well.

Without asking Christian, Jack already knows where Elena is. As a person who has the same power as Christian, it is not difficult for Jack to find a place where Christian holds Elena. Although initially angry when he learns that Christian is using the Clarke family villa as a place to detain Elena, Jack finally lets his son do it. Jack finally feels that Christian’s decision is right to use the villa as a place to detain Elena, because the villa is in a private area belonging to the Clarke family which of course cannot be breached by just anyone. That way, Elena’s whereabouts will not be easily tracked by anyone, just like him who had difficulty finding Elena until finally Jack remembered the existence of his family’s villa which was located in one of the hills far from the crowd. A villa that also has a long history for him and Anne decades ago.

“Welcome, sir,” said Jorge softly to Jack who had just gotten off the plane.

Jorge, who is the biological son of Noah, is one of the people who is so loyal to Jack, all of Christian’s movements were managed by Jack thanks to the information that Jorge provided.

.....

Jack smiled. “Is Christian awake?”

“Not yet, sir. The young master just returned from an event he attended with Miss Charlotte at five in the morning, sir.”

“Five in the morning Christian just got home? What kind of social activities do you do so early?”

Jorge shook his head slowly. “Sorry sir, for that I don’t know.”

“No need to apologize, you are innocent, let’s go to the villa. I don’t want my arrival to the villa to be known by that stubborn child, it will be a long business if he finds out,” said Jack quietly as he re-tidied his tie.

Jorge nodded his head at the master’s words, after Jack and Erick walked to the car that had been prepared previously and then followed from behind to immediately go to the villa where Elena was. Although Christian never discussed Elena with anyone at home, Jorge managed to find evidence from the GPS of the car Christian was driving. From the GPS history in the car, Jorge managed to find the fact that Christian visited the villa several times which was quite far from the city. That’s why when Jack asked himself to be accompanied to the villa, Jorge already knew that his master’s purpose in coming to Luxembourg this time was to see the condition of Elena, who had been missing from the public for almost three months.

While on the way to the villa Jack did not talk much. Coming back to a place that he had not visited in almost twenty-nine years made Jack feel a little uncomfortable, a place that witnessed his cruelty to Anne when he lost his memory, it made Jack’s chest feel tight. In his small heart, Jack hoped that his son would not repeat the mistakes he had made at that time. Jack hopes that the dark history he has made is not repeated by Christian.

“This place hasn’t changed much,” Jack muttered quietly when the car he was riding in arrived in front of the villa’s main gate which was always tightly closed.

Jorge smiled. “We are still doing maintenance without changing the slightest building in this villa, sir.”

“Thank you, Jorge. My grandfather would love to have one of his heritage homes well-maintained,” Jack said honestly.

“I’m just doing my job, sir.”

Jack smiled again, their conversation stopped when the black gate was opened from the inside. Even though times are sophisticated, the gate in the villa still maintains its authenticity by opening and closing it manually. That’s why Jack had to wait a while so the guards behind the gate could open the way for him to enter.

Jack closed his eyes slowly as his feet stepped on the front yard of the villa, the memories of twenty-nine years ago flashed back into Jack’s head. A dark incident that Jack desperately wanted to erase from his memory.

Romaria and the other maids who didn’t expect to see Jack’s presence in the villa were so scared, none of them dared raise their faces to look at Jack who had just passed through the main door with Erick and Jorge.

“What is Elena doing?” asked Jack flatly without expression, Jack deliberately asked what Elena was doing to the servants in front of him to confirm to them that he knew that Elena was in the villa. Jack didn’t give the servants a chance to lie.

Romaria and the other maids gasped, but none of the five dared to answer Jack’s question. The five maids were so confused right now.

“I never repeat the same question, so before I get angry you better...”

“Miss Elena is in the side garden, sir.” Romaria answered quickly by not daring to lift her face.

Jack raised an eyebrow. “She’s in the park, so early? What’s she doing in the park?”

“Sun bathing sir...”

“Sun bathing?”
