320 Solve the problem
“What is daddy doing?!”
Jack pursed his lips. “Daddy will do anything, as long as Daddy gets your forgiveness, Christ.”
Christian who didn’t expect to see his father kneeling in front of him, immediately moved by forcing him to get up from the floor, although still angry at his father, but Christian still couldn’t let his father kneel like that.
“Christ...”
“Don’t be like this, Dad!!!” Christian snaps loudly, as hard as he pushes against his father’s chest he’s been pushing away from him. “Daddy thinks with Daddy doing this all the trouble will be solved, don’t you? What Daddy just did was so childish!”
Jack, who had been pushed a step back, stared blankly at Christian. “Daddy’s just trying to get forgiveness from you, Christ. Daddy knows it’s too much Daddy’s fault, that’s why Daddy wants to apologize to you.”
“Apologizing doesn’t have to be like that, does it?” Christian replies curtly, seeing his father lower himself in front of him like before made him feel very uncomfortable right now. Christian doesn’t want to see his father like that. “And I was able to find Elena on my own without anyone’s help, so Daddy doesn’t have to do anything. What Daddy needs to do now is to keep Suri from doing anything stupid again, keep the kid away from the bastard named Areez Floyen who manipulated her into bad things don’t happen again in our family and don’t interfere with my problems anymore. Since the help Daddy offered was too late, I don’t need all Daddy’s help and attention anymore. It’s too late!”
“Christian Cyrillo Clarke!!” Anne, who could not stand to see Christian’s behavior that had crossed the line, finally shouted loudly. “Until when are you going to be like this? How long are you going to be mad at us because you think we care more about Asher? How long are you going to be jealous of a kid who has lost both his parents since he breathed the air in this world, Christ? Is it just because You live apart from us so you feel like a stepson like that? No, Christ!! You are still our top priority, your place in our hearts will not be replaced by anyone. Especially by Asher.”
Anne looks so angry, her whole body is shaking violently at this moment. In her entire life, Anne had only once been furious like this. The first was when she saw Leon and Steffi making love in the room that was supposed to be her wedding room with Leon and the second was at this time, where she saw Christian who always cornered Jack.
.....
“Asher lost both of his parents on the first day he was born, Christ. Aunty Linda and Uncle Paul, both of Asher’s parents loved and cared for you so much when they knew you grew up from Mommy’s womb. They treated you like their own child, within our limitations at that time, they both always prioritize you above all else. They both are even willing to not eat well to keep you drinking your best milk, maybe you forget the great kindness of Asher’s parents to you. But Mommy will not forget, no matter how much love Mommy gives to Asher will not be enough to repay the kindness of Asher’s parents to Mommy and to you, Christ.” Anne stopped her words with a tight feeling in her chest, remembering Linda and Paul made her sad again. Her two best friends still have a special place in her even though they died decades ago. “And you’re jealous of Asher because we gave him a little bit of our affection? You’re jealous of that parentless child, Christ?”
Christian turns his face the other way, trying to avoid eye contact with his mother who tries to remind him of Asher’s parents who spoiled him so much since childhood. Christian was a kid when Linda and Paul died, which is why he can’t remember all the good times with them.
“And Asher, he always blames himself when he sees you fighting with us, Christ. The child feels guilty, he even said he wanted to exchange the existence of his parents for all the luxuries he got now. Try to imagine how sick Asher was at that time, Christ ? For God’s sake, even though you were brought up by Luis in Luxembourg, our love for you has never diminished in the slightest. Your position in Mommy is still in the same place even though Mommy gave Mommy’s love to Asher.”
The words that Anne spoke made the atmosphere in the room change drastically, everyone including Christian lost the ability to speak. Erick, who became one of the living witnesses of Anne and Jack’s ordeal love journey, immediately wiped his face with a handkerchief, he didn’t want to show his weak side if someone saw him cry because he remembered about Linda and Paul who were so extraordinary.
“Mommy on behalf of Daddy apologizes to you for what Daddy did to you four years ago, Mommy also apologizes to you for slapping you, Christ. Mommy admits that if what Mommy and Daddy did at that time was wrong, we couldn’t control ourselves, ‘ said Anne, full of regret. “But please, please don’t hate Asher. The child is innocent, dear. Asher is innocent, the child even idolizes you. Don’t you know that Asher’s role model is you?”
Not wanting to hear his mother’s bullshit anymore, Christian suddenly walks towards the door. He felt uncomfortable hearing the words of his mother who always mentioned Asher’s name with great affection.
Christian almost screams when he finds Zwetta standing in front of his not fully closed door. Zwetta, who had returned after carrying out Christian’s orders, heard all the conversations between Christian and his parents, Zwetta, who initially wanted to enter the room immediately, then canceled her intention to enter when she saw Jack surprisingly kneeling in front of Christian to apologize.
“What are you doing here?” Christian asks coldly.
Zwetta, who is clever, has mastered her surprise at the sudden appearance of Christian, and immediately raises her hand in the air, showing Christian’s cell phone which she had taken from the car moments ago.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to...”
“Follow me!”
Before Zwetta could stop her words, Christian immediately grabbed her and pulled her hand towards the elevator. Christian does not pay attention to the gazes of his workers who look so shocked at this time to see him pulling Zwetta so possessively.
Zwetta who was very unprepared could only surrender when Christian was forced to pull her, Zwetta knew that Christian was in a bad mood right now. That’s why he let the man do as he pleases for now. Zwetta gives Christian a chance to calm down.
