I’ll Teach You, Marianne. - Chapter 679

Three days had passed since Jack left. All Anne did was sit and learn to embroider while watching Christian play with Doctor Caitlyn, who was on standby beside her. Doctor Caitlyn was asked by Jack to stay in Geneva until Anne gave birth.

“What’s wrong, Anne, do you feel sick?” Doctor Caitlyn asked slowly to Anne, who suddenly put her fork and spoon on the plate, even though she had not enjoyed her food at all.

Anne turned and looked at Doctor Caitlyn, who was sitting across from her. “I’m bored, I’m very bored, Doc.”

Doctor Caitlyn smiled. “What do you want to do today? Do you want to study…”

“I want to go shopping, take a walk at the mall. I want to refresh my frozen brain, Doc.”

Luis and Doctor Caitlyn chuckled at Anne’s words. The two companions of Anne looked at each other for a while before Luis nodded his head at Doctor Caitlyn, giving her a code.

“Well, where do you want to go?” Doctor Caitlyn asked gently.

Anne’s eyes immediately lit up. “Seriously, can I go?”

“Sure, did someone stop you?” Doctor Caitlyn asked amused.

“Yessss…  Well then, wait for me, I’ll get ready,” replied Anne excitedly.

After getting permission, Anne then rushed to her room using the elevator, leaving Luis, Doctor Caitlyn, and Christian enjoying their lunch.

Seeing Anne leave like that, Luis smiled while shaking his head. “Sometimes I forget that Madam is pregnant when I see her like that.”

“Yeah, you’re right, I sometimes feel sorry for Anne. When she was young, she had to become a mother of two children, even though you know that nowadays many women refuse to get pregnant for fear of changing their beauty and body. So when I saw her alone, sometimes I feel bad for her,” said Doctor Caitlyn quietly.

Luis placed the glass of water on the table and wiped his lips with a napkin. “Anne is a good girl and that’s what you said when you first saw her when I brought her home after she was raped that time, and what you said is true. Anne is not only a good girl. She is also a perfect mother even though her childish nature sometimes appears That’s why I love her and swear to keep her safe, even though the late Master didn’t ask me to do this.”

“So that means you weren’t asked by the late Master to look after this family actually, Luis?” asked Doctor Caitlyn in surprise.

“Actually, the old master at that time freed me to live outside without taking care of his family after he died. It was written in the will he wrote directly to me. But after a big fight that night that caused the madam to lose one baby, I finally decided to stay in this family and take care of Madam, to be more precise. After she left in silence, I continued to investigate and find out her whereabouts until finally I found her in Scotland, pregnant with her second child who survived. After knowing that, the heir of this family would soon be present, I swear to I don’t want to let go of this family and continue to watch over them even if Master doesn’t ask me directly. Besides, I have nowhere else to go, while in this family, I can feel the warmth of family. There is Christian who can cure my longing for my wife and child who had passed away long time ago. Plus, soon, there will be a princess in the family. It feels like my happiness is complete now,” Luis answered honestly.

Doctor Caitlyn was silent, holding back her tears. She couldn’t believe the stern and scary man sitting in front of her right now was just an old man who longed for family’s love. The awkward atmosphere finally disappeared when Anne back in the room again. Anne looked beautiful in a peach knee-length dress and a handbag to complete her look. She also had put on a light makeup on her face. Being pregnant with a daughter really had a huge impact on Anne.

“Are you ready?” Doctor Caitlyn asked gently.

“More than ready,” replied Anne excitedly, her eyes sparkling with great joy. It seemed that the saying that shopping was the cure for all women’s annoyances was true.

Doctor Caitlyn chuckled.

Anne nodded her head, but she immediately turned to Luis, who was still sitting casually beside the still smiling Christian, who enjoyed the food. As if aware of being watched, Luis then looked at Anne with a smile. “You two go, there will be ten bodyguards accompanying you. Christian and I will stay at home.”

“Why don’t you come with us, Luis?” asked Anne sadly.

“Because I don’t want to disturb a woman’s fun. After all, Christian doesn’t seem to like to linger at the mall. This child prefers nature to buildings,” Luis replied softly, stroking Christian’s hair lovingly.

Anne smiled. What Luis said was true. His son preferred quiet nature to places like malls that were full of people.

“Okay then, I’m going, Luis. Please take care of Christian for me.”

“Relax, Madam. Have fun.”

Doctor Caitlyn smiled and waved at Luis before finally turned around and walked with Anne to the car that was ready to drop them off. The Warrior members, who were always on standby, got into the car as soon as the lady had entered the super luxurious bullet-proof car in the second row. Not long after that, the three luxury cars began to leave the mansion area towards the highway together.

“Uncle, look what I found.”

“Uncle, I want that ice cream!”

“Uncle, I want to get on that swing.”

The slurred voice of Charlotte Lloyd playing with Edward Cole in the garden besides a fairly majestic building sounded very cheerful. The little girl was running in the open space with her little feet wearing pink lace shoes.

Edward was forced to babysit for his cousin, Chester Lloyd, this afternoon because Chester was on work that couldn’t be postponed.

“Uncle, come here. Don’t just sit there, come see this. I met a cute animal,” Charlotte shouted at Edward, who was sitting enjoying ice cream.

Thump!

Edward’s eyes widened instantly. “Don’t touch any animal, Charlotte,” Edward shouted loudly as he ran towards Charlotte.

The bodyguards who had been just standing straight up immediately followed Edward and approached Charlotte. As soon as he saw the cute animal mentioned by Charlotte, Edward screamed loudly and immediately hugged one of the bodyguards who were standing nearby.

It was clear that two caterpillars were eating the leaves on a flower plant. Seeing his fat and contorted body made Edward felt icky. Edward, who was afraid of insects, immediately ran away from Charlotte as soon as he realized he was hugging a man.

“Uncle, are you okay?”

Edward immediately waved his hand at Charlotte. “Come here! Don’t go near that beast, Charlotte. It’s a dangerous beast.”
