I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 22 - New Beginning

In his hotel room, Jack had finished drinking bottles of liquor alone so now he was fast asleep, the bodyguards who were on guard in the other room seemed surprised to see the change in their boss's behavior. The reason was that this was the first time they had seen the boss got drunk again after a long time.

"Could it be that the woman he scolded earlier was the same woman who made him stayed in this city for two years?" said a large man who had a tattoo on his neck quietly. ??

"It seems so, otherwise how could he became that angry?" replied the other man quickly.

"Stop gossiping, if the boss finds out he might scold us too. We'd better get some sleep, it's already late," said Jody interrupting the bodyguards.

Seeing Jody's arrival, the bodyguards immediately climbed onto their respective beds, Jody was the head of the bodyguard that Jack trusted the most. Jody just smiled watching his subordinates went to bed so quick, he then walked to the balcony to enjoy the night air while sucking on a cigarette in his hand.

Meanwhile, in another place, Aaron appeared to be busy with his work. He was very busy today because he had to take care of some important things that he had to finish as soon as possible. Because of this, he couldn't meet Anne and forgot to inform her. Although he promised her yesterday that he would come back to Anne's coffee shop.

"It's two o'clock in the morning, she must be sleeping already. I think it would be better if I'll come straight to the coffee shop tomorrow, I'm sure she will be surprised when she sees me coming," said Aaron quietly, staring at the watch on his right hand.

Aaron chose to go to bed right away since he was so tired and today's work had drained his brain. His employees in London suddenly called him to inform him that there was a problem in the company and Aaron had to immediately step in. Even though he was in another city, he joined the unscheduled meeting with his subordinates through Zoom. After struggling in front of the laptop for almost more than ten hours, the problem in his company was finally resolved. Aaron even forgot his schedule to have dinner with his best friend because of today's work.

As a CEO of a property development company, Aaron was always busy with various things dealing with money and permits. Today's source of the problem was that the developer who was also his right hand informed him that the land where they built a 40-story apartment had some issues due to the dispute with the first heir saying that he had never sold the land to anyone. As a result, Aaron had to mobilize ten of his trusted advocates to take care of this matter, he didn't want any problem arising from the almost finish project. Aaron had invested a lot of money in this project, which was why he felt like he was going crazy this morning when the core team at his office reported on this problem. Luckily, Aaron could breathe a sigh of relief after his legal team intervened. It seemed that the first heir was just making it up and trying to find profit on his own, because he had been crossed out from the list of the inheritor of the land, where 38-floors apartment had stood firmly on that land, by his family because he had manipulated many people and damaged his own family. His family finally decided to cross his name from the list of the inheritor,

London, England

After driving for almost eight hours, the moving truck that Anne rented finally arrived at a fairly busy apartment building complex, Anne excitedly got out of the car. She walked to the lobby where there were two security guards on duty and they were ready to help her put her belongings into her new apartment unit. Apparently, when Anne sold her apartment and coffee shop she also bought a Loft type apartment that had one small room above it which was connected by a ladder so that she had a more private bedroom. Anne then went straight into the new apartment after paying for the delivery fee and tipping the moving truck driver who had taken her to London. The six large suitcases and several personal belongings had been brought by the two security guards who had been waiting for her since two in the morning.

"Thank you, sir, for your help," said Anne gratefully to the two security guards who helped her while thanking and tipping the two kind men.

"This is part of our responsibility, miss, you don't have to hesitate to ask for our help. We are doing all this sincerely," replied one of the security guards, refusing the money given by Anne.

"Ah, please don't refuse it. Just accept it as my gratitude for your help. This is just a tip for you to buy coffee because both of you are willing to stay up late to wait for me to arrive at this apartment," said Anne again while clutching the hundred dollar bill to the security forcefully.

"Okay then, if you force us to accept it, miss. Thank you. Although you don't have to give us any tip, " the security replied after giving up to refuse her tip.

Anne smiled at the words of the security, she then entered the apartment when the two security guards who helped her got into the elevator. Anne smiled when she saw her new room, even though the apartment was still empty, Anne was quite happy and satisfied. She deliberately bought an empty and unfurnished apartment so that he could design her own room. The price of the apartment she currently occupied was more expensive than her old apartment. Living in the capital of England was very costly and Anne was aware of that. One of the reasons why she chose to rent this empty apartment so that she could save a little money and use some furniture from her old apartment.

A smile appeared on Anne's face when she saw that her spring mattress which she deliberately brought was already on the second floor, apparently the two security guards had put the most important item in the right place. Because she was tired, Anne finally chose to sleep after she put the bed cover on the spring mattress which she just put on the floor after covering it with fur carpet. Anne purposely didn't use the bedstead so she could freely lay on there on the second floor of her apartment and her choice was right. Besides, she will have more freedom and she would also find it easier if she wanted to clean the second floor.

"Cheer up Anne, back then you could live your life when you were dumped by that criminal. Now you can do it again, don't give up Marianne!!! After this, your life's journey will start again from zero," said Anne softly while yawning, she could no longer withstand the drowsiness.

Soon after murmuring those words to herself, Anne fell asleep when the sun just emerged from the eastern horizon, she was so tired that she fell asleep when her body touched her favorite mattress in her new apartment in London. Anne wanted to rent an apartment near the city center, she always tried to find an apartment that was quite busy and located near the highway to minimize crime. Anne thought that she would be busier in the future and she would often come home late, therefore Anne was looking for an apartment that was easily accessible to public transportation. A place that was crowded like her current apartment even though the price was quite expensive.

"Marianne ..... argghhhhhh fuck!!!!!"
