Chapter 314 - Muller Finance International
Jack\'s eyes widen when he heard Anne\'s words.
"What do you mean, Anne?"
Anne took a deep breath, slowly telling him what had just happened at Ganke Inc. Production. Starting from the photos and videos shown by Leon to Leon\'s very rude cursing. While speaking, Anne looked very calm. She didn\'t even look sad at all.
"I\'m sure it was Steffi who gave Leon the photos and videos," said Anne slowly ending her story.
"That woman again," said Jack emotionally.
"Actually I don\'t mind Steffi giving all the photos or videos to Leon, but there are other things that bother me," added Anne again.
"What\'s that?" Jack asked curtly.
Anne looked at Jack without blinking. "Didn\'t you say that the apartment has a very strict security system? Then how did Steffi get the photos and videos that were clearly taken in the apartment parking area, which incidentally is still in the apartment environment and to access it, don\'t you have to go through several post first? How did she get in? Doesn\'t that mean the security in the apartment isn\'t good? If that\'s the case, I\'d better go back to my old apartment anyway. Steffi will definitely find me anyway, right?"
Jack\'s eyes widened when he heard Anne\'s words. He didn\'t like it when Anne was against his decision like that. Although Anne directly opposed him, from the story that Anne told him, she wanted to return to her old apartment. Jack immediately realized where the story was leading to. Without a word, Jack took out his cell phone.
"Find out if in the last few days Steffi Ganke has come to Anne\'s apartment. Also find out if there is anyone who helps her. If there is, bring him to me," said Jack in a rising voice as he spoke to one of his subordinates who was guarding Anne\'s new apartment.
"Yes sir, I understand," replied the man on the other end of the line.
After ordering that, Jack then put his cell phone on the table. He then walked over to Anne who was sitting on the sofa.
"If the apartment is not safe for you, then my house is your new place to live, Anne," said Jack quietly as he sat opposite Anne.
"Don\'t be crazy, Jack. If you ask me to stay at your house, then what Steffi said is true. Everyone will definitely call me a slut, I don\'t want that, Jack." Anne responded quickly to Jack\'s words. She rejected Jack\'s proposal to stay at her house.
"You are my woman, so what? After all, some people already know you are my fiancée. There is no problem if we live in the same house, Anne. Even if you are pregnant, I will certainly be responsible, so you don\'t have to worry, Anne. I don\'t care what people say, we\'re the ones who go through this. You and I, as long as we\'re happy, then there\'s no problem, right?" Jack answered quietly without guilt.
Anne\'s heart beat faster hearing Jack\'s words. After catching her breath, Anne then looked at Jack sharply and said, "It\'s not that easy, Jack, I don\'t want to live in the same house with a man who hasn\'t officially become my husband. You are a man and it\'s easy for a man to change partners, but not with a woman, Jack. That woman\'s name will always be tarnished in the eyes of others, especially if she gets pregnant out of wedlock, then it will be a burden for me. If you judge me as an old-fashioned woman, I\'ll accept it, but that\'s my principle. I\'ve failed on my marriage, Jack. I don\'t want to repeat a bigger mistake than that. Even if Steffi really wants to do things to me, I will deal with it. As you taught me before to face the problem head-on and not walk away from the problem."
"Don\'t do that, Anne!! Steffi is a lunatic, don\'t look for trouble with her," Jack rebuked in a rising voice.
Anne got up from the sofa. She was on her knees in front of Jack and this was the first time she dared to act like that to Jack. "Then what should I do Jack, you said the apartment was a safe apartment, but look at the fact now. After I lived there, Steffi was able to get the photos and videos, right? So far, only Leon who had received a copy of the originals, and since I know Steffi very well, I\'m sure she will definitely use the photos and videos to do even bigger things that can\'t..."
"Don\'t worry. The problem about Steffi is my business. One thing is clear, you need to stay calm, don\'t decide anything without my permission. Let my men work first, they will find out if it was really Steffi who took the photos and videos or someone else. Because if it was someone else that Steffi ordered, then I would have to think of another way. But if it was Steffi who did it herself, then I\'ll stick to the original plan. What is certain for now is that you calm down first, I\'m sure that woman will not dare to spread the photos and video. As long as I\'m there, you don\'t need to be afraid and even if the photos and videos have already spread, then that\'s even better, so I can have a reason to marry you sooner, right?" Jack said at length cutting Anne\'s words.
"Married? Haven\'t we agreed not to get married so soon, Jack?" asked Anne stammered.
"If you don\'t want to live in the same house with me because we\'re not married yet, then we should get married, there\'s no other way." Jack answered Anne\'s question calmly without guilt
"B-but we already agreed not to..."

"Excuse me sir, sorry to interrupt. The person you hate so much is currently downstairs." Erick spoke from the door so politely that Anne couldn\'t continue the conversation.
"Who is it, Erick?" asked Jack loudly.
"Leonardo Ganke and his assistant, Wayne Scott, are in the lobby. They say they want to meet with you in person to discuss the cooperation agreement which they think is inappropriate," Erick replied politely.
"Tsk… discussing the cooperation agreement he said, you bastard man," Jack cursed in annoyance. He knew Leon\'s actual purpose to come to his office was to discuss the video and photos that Anne had told him just now.
Jack seemed to think for a while before answering Erick\'s words again. Soon, his smile grew.
"Call Alice, I need to talk to her," said Jack in a loud voice.
Alice, who was standing beside Erick, directly went into Jack\'s room. She had heard Jack\'s words to Erick.
"Wow, that was fast," Jack said in amazement.
"I\'m sorry, sir, I was actually…"
"Come here, I want to talk to you about something." Jack cut off Alice\'s words quickly.
Alice, who was afraid, was still standing where she was. She didn\'t dare to approach Jack until she finally exhausted Jack\'s patience and made his private secretary approached closer. The frightened Alice seemed to be trying to avoid Jack, but Jack swiftly held Alice\'s hand and then whispered a few words to the red-haired girl.
"Yes sir, I understand," answered Alice quickly when Jack had said all the things he wanted to say.
"Do it now!!!"
Alice nodded her head excitedly. She rushed to Anne shortly after Jack had left the room.
"What\'s wrong, Alice?" asked Anne confused.
"Take off your clothes, Sis," Alice answered shortly.
"W-what?!!" Anne screamed loudly while crossing her arms across her chest.
