Chapter 329 - An Unknown Enemy?

Anne stepped into the bathroom shortly after Jack left. Under the cold shower, Anne was silent without doing anything. Remembering what Jack had done a moment ago made her lost for words. Even though Jack didn\'t force her to have sex, but what Jack did to her really made her speechless. Using her hands, Anne rubbed her chest where Jack had left the mark. Although she knew that her efforts were in vain, but she continued to do so until the skin around her chest became red.

"You\'re bad, Jack... Didn\'t you say you wouldn\'t do that to me first, Jack, sob. You\'re bad Jack...bad!!"

Anne\'s tears broke when she touched her chest which had been sucked by Jack. Even though she and Jack had made a promise, but Anne felt that what they were doing was not legally strong. And Anne didn\'t want Jack to touch her first before their marriage was actually legalized by the state. Leon dumped her, which made her always felt vulnerable with the word marriage.

Meanwhile, Jack, who was currently in the car going to the English Channel to meet Kevin Cormier with Erick, just sat quietly without a sound. He didn\'t even change his sitting position at all with his hand still holding his cell phone.

"Are you all right, sir?" Eric asked quietly.

"I don\'t know, I don\'t know, I don\'t think I\'m excited for this trip at all," Jack answered honestly.

"Calm down, sir, this is just a normal business meeting. Later after the dinner was over, you can be with Madam again," said Erick quickly, teasing his master. Erick guessed that Jack was not excited because he didn\'t want to be away from Anne.

Jack thinned his lips hearing Erick\'s words. Indeed, he was not calm because he left Anne in a middle of a fight earlier. As a man who didn\'t like to hold on to problems for too long, Jack felt very uncomfortable having to be separated from Anne when things weren\'t over. And there was another strange feeling inside him that he couldn\'t describe right now. Jack had a bad feeling about his business meeting this time. A feeling that he couldn\'t understand, but what was certain was that his heart was very unsettled. But Jack tried to bury his bad feeling deep because he still had to go to his business partner who had helped him a lot. Jack didn\'t want to be called a person who didn\'t know how to repay his good deeds. Moreover, this meeting was just an ordinary dinner, not an important business meeting. Because of that, Jack tried to stay calm and not think too much about his feelings that were very messy. He slowly closed his eyes to calm himself because the journey to the dinner venue was still 30 minutes away.

Seeing the master closed his eyes, Erick was focused on the steering wheel he was holding and increased the speed of his car, so they wouldn\'t be late for the event. After a long journey, Erick\'s car finally arrived at Portsmouth, where Jack was going to take a yacht, to catch up with Kevin Cormier\'s cruise ship with other businessmen who also knew Jack. While on the yacht, Jack sat quietly holding a glass of wine that had been prepared for him. Erick, who had just spoken to the yacht captain, approached Jack.

"It feels like we haven\'t had a business meeting like this in a long time, sir," Erick said quietly as he sat in front of Jack.

Jack shook the wine glass he was holding and took a slow sip. "You\'re right. It feels like it\'s been a long time since we\'ve had a meeting like this with the other businessmen. Did you know that we\'ll meet anyone on that ship, Erick?"

Erick shook his head slowly regretfully as he lowered his head and said, "I don\'t fully know Sir. All I know is that some of Mr. Kevin\'s business associates are both from Switzerland. The rest there are some businessmen from Asia and America, but that\'s all. I still have doubts about where they came from. I don\'t know exactly who will be joining this dinner Sir, I\'m sorry."

"It\'s okay, Erick. This is just an ordinary dinner so you don\'t have to feel guilty like that. Besides, we attended an invitation from Mr. Kevin who was the initiator of this event, so let\'s see who we\'ll meet with later," said Jack quickly responded to Erick\'s words. Jack knew Erick felt guilty because he didn\'t know who would be coming to this event.

Hearing Jack\'s words made Erick lift his head slowly and smile. His fear disappeared when he found out that Jack wasn\'t angry with him because he didn\'t know who the people who would be at this dinner would be. Soon, they both stood up because the cruise ship they were going to board was already in front. Jack and Erick were getting ready to get off and move to a fairly large cruise ship. Because the weather was a little unfriendly, both of them had to be careful when stepping down so they weren\'t too far out at sea. At first, Erick wanted to get on the cruise ship after Jack. But Jack forbade him. He finally got on first and immediately reached out his hand to Jack when he arrived safely on the yacht. Holding on to Erick\'s hand, Jack was finally able to board the yacht safely. The two of them rushed into the main hall to meet Mr. Kevin Cormier, the host of this event.

"It\'s crowded, sir," Erick whispered softly.

"Yeah, it looks like there are more than 100 people on this ship," Jack answered quietly.

"Do you know any of them, sir?" Erick asked curiously, because he was currently in a crowd of strangers he had never seen before.

"I don\'t think so. So far I haven\'t recognized these people. Their work is foreign to me," replied Jack flatly. As someone who had struggled with business in Europe, Jack felt foreign to these oriental-looking businessmen. But even though he didn\'t recognize them, Jack tried to be friendly and smiled when he met some people who indirectly passed him.

After walking for a long time, Jack and Erick finally met Mr. Kevin Cormier, the host of this banquet. When he saw Jack coming, Mr. Kevin immediately greeted him warmly and hugged him tightly.

"Finally you came, Jack, sorry if I invited you so suddenly like this," said Mr. Kevin friendly.

"Of course I\'m coming, I can\'t ignore your invitation, sir," answered Jack honestly.

"Haha! You haven\'t changed at all, Jack, you\'re still the same as before and I\'m very proud of you to see the rapid progress you\'ve made here. I really didn\'t expect Jackson Patrick Muller to take the risk by opening a branch of Muller Finance International in another country, when everyone is competing to spread their wings in their own country, you are bravely starting everything from scratch in other countries. Your father and mother must be very proud of you, Jack," said Mr. Kevin honestly.

"You know very well what my father and mother are like, sir," said Jack quietly in a hoarse voice. Every time Mr. Kevin mentioned about his father and mother, Jack was always sensitive, because his parents were friends of Mr. Kevin.

Mr. Kevin patted Jack on the shoulder and smiled faintly. "They must be proud of you, Jack, believe me. Your mom and dad would be happy up there right now when they saw their only son could make Muller Finance International the size it is today."

"You\'re praising me too much, sir, I\'m really uncomfortable right now," Jack replied back.

Mr. Kevin laughed out loud at Jack\'s words. He then invited Jack to go to the dining table to enjoy the food that were served. Erick, who had been an avid listener from behind, followed his master to the dining table.

Meanwhile, from the corner of the room, a pair of eyes looked at Jack without blinking. He looked shocked when he saw Jack\'s presence in that place. A look full of hatred and resentment towards Jack emanated from the pair of hazel eyes.
