Chapter 260 - Future Husband

After hearing Anne's words, Jack then left her and headed for a bar table not far from where she was. He grabbed a bottle of vodka and drank it straight from the bottle, as his head was suddenly spinning at the words that came out of Anne's lips.

"You're the one who taught me all this, Jack, so don't be mad at me." From the sofa, Anne shouted loudly adding to her previous words with her hands on her hips. She was annoyed at Jack, who would rather drink than listen to her words.

"I taught you to move on and not dwell on the past, Anne, not like this. I don't like you dealing with them." Jack thought to himself as he looked at Anne, who was walking towards where he stood.

Without guilt, Anne grabbed the bottle of vodka in Jack's hand and immediately closed it tightly. "Don't drink too much, it's not good. It's still noon after all."

"When can I drink?"

Anne wiggled her thumb in front of his face shaking her head slowly.

"Drink less alcohol, Jack. Take good care of your body," said Anne quietly.

Jack, who was not yet drunk, just laughed at Anne's words. He then moved his hand and ruffled Anne's hair in annoyance. "Don't be smart in advising others if you can't take care of yourself, Anne," he said softly with a warm gaze.

Hearing Jack's words warmed Anne's heart. Recently, she was easily touched by the words that Jack said. Whereas in the past when they worked together at Newcastle Upon Tyne she had never felt like this. With her tight chest because her heart was beating fast, Anne let go of Jack's hand from her head. She subconsciously opened the bottle of vodka that she had previously closed and drank it quickly. Jack, who was also aware that Anne was drinking his liquor just smiled. This was the first time in her life that Anne had drunk, she felt nothing but bitterness in her throat.

Erick's footsteps that came in a hurry made Jack and Anne turned to look. They both walked over to Erick, who brought the two men who previously followed Anne. He brought the two men home based on Jack's order, as he wanted to directly interrogate.

"Bring it to the study, Eric," said Jack coldly tyrannically, showing his distaste for the two men who were being handcuffed with black headscarves.

Erick nodded his head quickly at the master's order. He continued his steps again, bringing two new prisoners who must be prepared to be tortured by Jack if they couldn't answer his questions. Even though Jack already knew that the two people were ordered by Steffi, he wanted to know more. What mission should they do after they successfully finding Anne's place, Jack was sure that Steffi didn't just want to know where Anne lived. As a businessman who has struggled with these kinds of things, Jack was very sure that Steffi must have bad intentions greater than just wanting to harm Anne, so he decided to interrogate them directly.

"I'll go to the study, you stay here. Remember, don't go anywhere or try to leave, the bodyguards in front are already on guard. If you force yourself to leave, don't blame those men if they immediately tie your hands and feet using cable tie, Anne," said Jack with a low, threatening tone to Anne, who was still holding the half-filled bottle of vodka.

"I know, go away. You're too talkative, Jack. You're noisy like a woman." Anne shooed Jack away quickly while waving her hand.

Jack, who didn't realize that Anne had been drinking the vodka just smiled. He then stepped away from the bar table following Erick, who was already in his study. After Jack was out of sight, Anne then drank the vodka in her hand again without thinking, even though the taste of the drink was bitter, Anne felt another sensation. That was why she went on chugging the vodka in her hand without hesitation.

Two well-built men immediately opened the study door when Jack arrived. They bowed their heads to pay respects to Jack who walked into his study. As soon as Jack entered, his eyes immediately fell on the two men, whose headscarf had not been removed, with a cynical smile. He then looked at Erick and gave him a code to open the headscarf of the two men who were kneeling on the floor. Without speaking, Erick immediately removed the black head coverings of the two men he had brought from the police station. As soon as the head coverings were opened, the two men immediately stared blankly, looking around the place where they were currently in.

"You are at my house, the house of the future husband of the girl you are following." Jack spoke loudly introducing himself. He purposely spoke like that to emphasize that these two men had been wrong because they dared to follow Anne.

The two private detectives immediately paled when they heard the words of the man who was standing while leaning on the table in front of them. Even though they didn't know the name of the man in front of them, but they were sure that he was not a random person. Just by looking at his gestures and manner of speaking, they could already guess that the handsome man in front of them was a man of great power.

"Oh my God, we don't know anything. We're only doing the order. We're just doing our job."

"Yes sir, if we had known that our target was your girlfriend, we would not dare, sir. Forgive us, sir."

The two private detectives shouted one after another, asking for forgiveness from Jack, even though Jack didn't say much. But the two men had already apologized to him straight away. Being in the same room with Jack made them both feel very threatened.

Jack just smiled at the words of the two men in front of him. He then walked over to the two private detectives and squatted in front of them.

"What other orders did that crazy woman give you?" asked Jack in a low, intimidating voice.

"We were only ordered to find out the lady's address, sir," replied the private detective with eyeglasses.

"One thing you should know, I'm a very forgiving man. But if I get angry then I won't give you any mercy, so before you two regret it, it's better to just say what that crazy woman ordered. I will give you way more than that crazy woman gave you if you two want to work with me," Jack said softly with a meaningful smile, slowly he pulled out a gun from under his shirt,? giving intimidation to the two men in front of him.

Seeing the gun that Jack pulled out made the two private detectives' guts shrivel. With sweat dripping down their foreheads, the two men said honestly the task assigned by Steffi. While the two private detectives were talking, Jack didn't take his eyes off of them one bit. His teeth were gnashing loudly as his jaw met. Jack was really very angry at Steffi right now. He didn't think she had such a terrible plan for Anne.

As soon as the two private detectives finished talking, Jack left his study. He had to speak directly to Anne. She must know that the Steffi she was dealing with now was a psycho crazy woman. Jack walked over to the bar table and was surprised when he didn't find Anne, whereas previously he had left her where his liquor collection was. When Jack was about to open his mouth to shout for her, suddenly the corner of his eye caught Anne's shoe which had slipped off near the sofa. His eyes widened when he saw Anne was lying on the carpet.

"Anne, Anne...Are you okay?" Jack who immediately ran and grabbed Anne's body looked panicked when he realized that Anne was unconscious.

"Erick....Erick...!"

Jack's scream was muffled by Anne's index finger which suddenly touched Jack's lips. "Don't be too loud, Jack, I'm ... barf."
