I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 231 - Jack's Plan For Leon

Anne fell silent for a moment, she was carried away by the atmosphere. But Anne finally realized that she was in a public place with many people looking at them. Without saying a word Anne then pushed Jack away from her.

"Why did you reject me?" Jack looked disappointed as he sat facing Anne again.

Anne just sighed hearing his question. Slowly using both hands, Anne grabbed Jack's face and directed him to the small stage where there were still some musicians playing music from thirty minutes ago. Not feeling satisfied, Anne moved Jack's head again to look at the door where they entered the rooftop. There was now a line of four waiters who stood with perfect attitude staring at them.

"Ahh, I forgot about them," Jack growled.

Anne then released her hand from Jack's face and tidied up her short hair with her fingers to relieve her nervousness. Jack chose to grab a glass of wine on the table and drank it without a trace.

"How long are we going to stay here?" Anne asked softly, breaking the silence between herself and Jack that had lasted for almost ten minutes.

"Until I'm satisfied with you," he replied without feeling guilty, Jack was still annoyed that he couldn't channel his desire again this time.

Anne smiled a bit, it got wider as she heard his words. Seeing Jack angry reminded her of Jack's attitude two years ago when he was still a bartender in her coffee shop. Jack used to be like this. He was arrogant, annoying, and cold, but for some reason with his attitude, many women were crazy about him. To be honest, Jack was the big secret behind Anne's success as a coffee shop owner. The women who worked around the coffee shop area did not actually like the coffee that much, but Jack changed everything. His aura and handsomeness had attracted many female customers. They idolized him so much that they were willing to come to the coffee shop often.

"Why are you smiling like that? Are you making fun of me?" Jack asked abruptly.

"How could I be mocking you? I'm just remembering your fans in the coffee shop in the past. Do you still remember it? I still couldn't believe it that people like you have dozens of loyal fans like that," Anne replied softly with a big smile.

"I'm smart, tall, and handsome. You are the only person who doesn't realize that your lover is so perfect, I suspect that in your eyes there is a fog that covers all the retinas of your eyes so you can't see my perfection," said Jack, praising himself.

Hearing Jack's arrogance made Anne laugh out loud, she didn't think Jack would have that much confidence. Even though all this time Anne thought Jack was a cold man without a heart, it turned out that Jack had a very high degree of narcissism.

"Go on… keep laughing Anne. But don't blame me if I'm going to make your laughter a moan of pleasure when we…"

"Don't be crazy Jack!!!" Anne cut off Jack's words quickly, her face flushed as Jack mentioned such vulgar things.

Jack chuckled at Anne's behavior, he was very happy to be able to tease her like that. Anne, who was still annoyed with Jack, suddenly froze when she heard a very familiar song in her ear. One of the most popular songs by world music maestro Ludwig Van Beethoven with the title Für Elise. Anne was always enchanted every time she heard the melodious songs of the world maestro. Jack, who was enjoying his wine, had not noticed the change in Anne's attitude. He just realized the change in Anne's attitude when she asked him to make a toast.

Anne's eyes focused on the pianist who was playing the classical song, while her lips were tightly closed without a gap. She looked like she was being hypnotized right now because she didn't even respond to Jack who was already waving his hand in front of her face.

It was only after the song ended that Anne returned to the real world, she immediately turned to Jack who was staring at her without blinking.

"What's wrong?" Anne asked, confused. She felt uncomfortable being stared at like that by Jack.

"Do you like classic songs?" Jack asked back without changing his sitting position which was still leaning on the couch by folding his hands on his chest.

"Classic songs?"

"Yes, classic songs. Even though I'm not a fan of classical songs, I know that the song the pianist just played is one of the most popular classical songs. I don't know what the title is, but I've heard some musicians play that song before. So I'm pretty familiar with that song. Do you like that kind of music, Anne?" Jack asked Anne again.

Anne smiled at Jack's question, slowly she got up from the couch and walked out from where they had dinner to enjoy the snow falling from the sky. Seeing Anne walk out just like that, Jack then followed her by bringing Anne's jacket that she left on the couch. When he was already behind Anne and preparing to put the jacket on her body, Anne turned her body and stared at Jack intensely.

"If I said I was a pianist, would you believe it?" Anne asked softly with an indescribable look.

Instead of answering Anne's very serious question, Jack laughed out loud, he laughed so hard that Anne covered one ear with her hand.

"Please… Anne. Don't joke around, it's not even funny," he said softly with difficulty while trying to stop his laughter.

"I'm serious Jack, I'm not…"

"Okay then, now we better go inside. I don't want you to get sick," Jack immediately cut off Anne's words which he thought were ridiculous, he wanted to end the nonsense she was saying. For the past two years he had known her, he never saw Anne touch or play a melody using the piano.

Anne, who wanted to start opening up little by little, remembered her past while smiling. She realized that no one would trust her. So she chose to keep her big secret to herself, even though she wanted to show the world that she was a pianist.

As the day got darker and colder, Jack finally asked her to go home. Jack didn't want to make Anne sleep too late because tomorrow she still had to work in Leon's office, the man she hated the most. On the way home to Anne's apartment, Jack did not release his grip on Anne's hand, although Anne repeatedly yelled at him to focus on the road.

"I'm still not satisfied even after spending hours with you. We should have used the summer vacation to be together every single day instead of working. If it was not for that jerk, we wouldn't be here right now," Jack said while being annoyed, he blamed Leon for Anne's busyness during her college holidays.

"Without going on vacation, we can stay together like this," Anne replied softly, trying to calm Jack.

Jack let out a cynical smile. "It's not the same Anne. I want to enjoy a full-time vacation with you. Not something like this."

"Stop talking about this again, it's not good for your mental health if you always get angry like that," Anne replied again.

Jack stuck out his tongue in response to Anne's words. He was very upset right when he remembered how Leon ruined his vacation plans with Anne. He was so annoyed that he already forgot what Aaron had done to him this afternoon in Matthew Moretz's office.

"If that bastard does something to you, you have to tell me right away, okay? I will be happy to get rid of him and send him back to the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Narok County, Kenya, to join the other lions there," said Jack suddenly.

Hearing Jack mentioned one of Africa's wildlife reserves made Anne laugh, she couldn't imagine if that happened to Leon.

"I'm serious, I'm not joking at all," he added, Jack was unhappy to see Anne laughing at him who was being so serious.

"I know… I know… let's just go home now. I can't stand it anymore, I want to go to the bathroom," Anne answered softly, closing her mouth with both hands.
