Chapter 637 - Forbidden Organization

Jack could only stand still when he saw Anne was enjoying the food that Noah had just finished making. The atmosphere around the dining table became very cold and quiet. There was no sound except for Anne's fork against the plate. Anne seemed to really enjoy the Bienenstich, which is a sweet cake whose dough is made of vanilla cream, almonds and honey as a coating on top. Bienenstich was one of the typical German foods that Anne could only enjoy every time there was an event at the church, and even then she could only eat it after the other churchgoers had finished enjoying it. But now every time Anne mentioned the name of the food, Noah would quickly make it for her, really, how easy it was for God to change the degree of someone's life.

"Open your mouth," said Anne quietly as she handed the Bienenstich to Jack.

Jack shook his head. "I don't like sweets."

"Jack, my hand hurts."

Hearing Anne's words, Jack finally relented. With a little annoyance, Jack opened his mouth and accepted the mouthful of cake.

"How is it, isn't it delicious?" asked Anne excitedly.

"It's ordinary, there are lots of tastier foods than this that I've tried," replied Jack a little sarcastically.

The gleam of happiness on Anne's face disappeared. Her eyes suddenly drooped. With a suppressed wry smile, Anne began to spoon her fork back into her Bienenstich.

"You don't have to say that, I know it too. It's just that it's really different from me, who can only enjoy this delicious food from the leftover of other people when I was little," said Anne hoarsely.

Thump!

Jack immediately turned around when he realized his mistake.

"Babe..."

"Please make me some chamomile tea without sugar, Noah. And please bring it to my room," said Anne gently to Noah who was standing not far from her.

"Yes ma'am."

After saying that, Anne then got up from the chair and prepared to leave, but her steps were stopped by Jack who had grabbed her hand.

"I'm tired, Jack, I want to rest," said Anne softly asking Jack to let go of her hand.

"But Anne.."

Anne turned and looked directly at Jack. "Please."

Jack immediately released his grip from Anne's hand and let his wife go up to the second floor alone. Not long after that, Noah was seen following behind Anne, carrying a cup of chamomile tea that Anne ordered.

Seeing Anne leaving, Jack immediately ruffled his already neat hair in annoyance. Luis, who had been silent for a long time watching Jack and Anne's conversation, then approached Jack with Christian in his arms.

"Dealing with pregnant women does require a lot of patience, sir," said Luis softly with a smile.

Jack turned to Luis lazily. "Anne kicked me out of the room because she wanted to talk to Doctor Caitlyn and Doctor Olivia. She also scolded me because you asked the two doctors about what they were doing in the room. After that. you saw for yourself, right, she's mad at me again because of the cake? Oh Jesus.."

Luis chuckled. "That's nothing, so you'd better be very patient in the future."

"Should I continue to succumb to her, Luis?" Jack asked quietly.

"You can answer that question yourself, sir. You've been separated from Madam and young master for a long time, would you like to experience that again?"

Thump! An invisible hammer hit Jack's chest suddenly. Luis' words immediately made him realize.

With patience, Luis wiped the saliva that dripped from Christian's lips who was still very happy to play with his mustache. "Remember, sir, currently Madam's emotions are unstable. So you have to be more patient with her. Believe me, carrying a baby is not easy. A woman must be willing to share all the intakes in her body with the baby, not to mention the drastic changes in her body shape. Luckily, Madam is a woman who doesn't care about her body. Just look out there. There are so many women who don't want to get pregnant and breastfeed their children for fear of changing their bodies. My advice is for you to be very patient. You certainly don't want to lose your precious moment with your second baby, right?"

Jack didn't answer Luis' words, his tongue was numb. He almost made the same mistake as three years ago. Luckily, Luis made him came to his senses right away. With a limp body, Jack sat back in his chair, ignoring Luis who was back playing with his son. Ever since Christian was in Luxembourg, Luis had dominated the handsome boy. Christian himself looked comfortable with Luis who spoiled him a lot.

Noah's presence on the first floor broke Jack's thoughts.

"What's my wife doing, Noah?" asked Jack quickly.

"Madam is lying on the sofa massaging her head, Master."

One of Jack's eyebrows immediately rose. "Massaging her head?"

Noah nodded slowly. "Yes, but Madam refused the help of two maids who wanted to help her."

Hearing Noah's words made Jack smile. Without speaking, Jack immediately turned around and ran towards the stairs to go up to the second floor, leaving Noah looking confused. Meanwhile, from where he played with Christian on the floor that had been covered with a rug, Luis seemed to shake his head.

"Young man," Luis said quietly, commenting on Jack's behavior.

Since morning Erick and Alice had been busy with the loss of important company data. While enjoying breakfast at home, Erick received a call from the IT team reporting the leak of company data. Without finishing his breakfast, Erick rushed to the office with Alice by helicopter to save time.

Luckily, Erick understood a little about data processing like that, so he immediately helped the IT team to help secure the company's most important data. However, because Erick worked alone, a number of accounts could not be saved along with their contents and some important data from clients who still had outstanding debts at Muller Finance International.

"Do you know where the money went, Alice?" Erick asked worriedly.

"Not yet, give me extra time, Erick. The bank is also still working hard to track the money," Alice answered in a trembling voice, this time Alice looked scared.

Erick scratched his hair that didn't itch. He looked confused at this time whether to tell Jack or not. Because the one who had more power was Jack as CEO, Erick was really in a serious dilemma.

"Tell Master, he must know about this matter, Erick. This is no small matter," Alice said softly with teary eyes staring at the monitor screen that showed the amount of money that was continuously decreasing.

Hearing Alice's words, Erick finally decided to contact Jack. Fortunately they were still in the Schengen area which made international travel easier without a passport, making it easier for Jack if he had to return to Switzerland right now.

"Calm down. I'm working from here, Erick. Call the bank to freeze the leaked money. I'm tracking where the funds are currently flowing. You and Alice better go to the bank right now to report this, so that even if the money arrives in the hands of hackers, make sure the money cannot be used," said Jack firmly.

"Yes sir and..."

"And don't say sorry again, it's not your fault. It's our fault for not checking our security system, so don't apologize anymore. Go quickly, Erick, time is running out." Jack immediately cut Erick's words quickly.

"Yes sir."

As soon as Erick finished speaking, Jack then returned to his focus with his two sophisticated laptops which were displaying numbers and alphabets in a secret program belonging to his company that hackers were trying to hack. Luckily only the money the hackers took, but not the important data. Jack calmed down a bit when he found out that important files stored in softcopy were still safe. Without thinking twice, Jack then blocked all the files so that hackers couldn't retrieve them.

Jack, who previously wanted to come to Anne, was surprised by Erick's call with bad news. Without thinking, he immediately rushed down to his office on the first floor and immediately worked alone. Being the CEO of a large company did make Jack always have to be close to his sophisticated computers, especially since Muller Finance International was the largest funding company in Europe today. Jack, who was happy because he could reunite with Anne, was careless because he wasn't focused on his company so this kind of thing happened. But he wouldn't be called Jackson Knight Clarke if he didn't manage to take care of the problem. In a little while, Jack and the IT team in Switzerland managed to break the hack that was carried out by one of the most dangerous hackers.

However, Jack's smile didn't last long, because when he looked at his other monitor, his face immediately turned pale when he found out where his money had gone.

"Fuck!!!"
