I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 238 - Steffi’s Scheming

Anne, who had just returned to her room after talking for a while with Edward, was quite surprised when she saw her friends eating pizza. Because Anne still felt full, she didn't join them. The only thing on her mind right now was to finish her work and go home as soon as possible. Her head was already aching with all the things she went through today.

Because today some members of the visual team couldn't work overtime, Anne postponed the meeting. She reorganized some of the previously printed files into her bag to take home. She finally decided to go home on time.

"You're not working late, Anne?" Edward asked in surprise when he met Anne in the elevator.

"There are three people who can't work late today, so I decided to postpone the overtime," said Anne quietly, looking down.

"Are you okay, Anne? Your face is a little pale."

Anne just nodded her head in response to Edward's words. Her mood was really, really bad. Edward, who wanted to ask Anne further, canceled his intention when he saw several other staff got into the elevator. He didn't want to make the other staff think he and Anne had a special relationship.

"Come with me, Anne, I can take you home," Edward said slowly, offering to take Anne home.

"Don't worry, Edward, I just take the bus as usual. We live in different directions, I don't want to make it difficult for you," Anne answered slowly, rejecting Edward's offer.

"I don't mind, Anne, after all..."

"Well, look, the bus has arrived. I'm going home now, Edward, bye." Anne cut Edward's words quickly as she ran towards the bus stop.

Edward couldn't say anything when he saw Anne left him. Since the bus that took Anne had left, Edward then walked to his car which was parked in the basement. Five minutes later, Edward's luxury car drove away from Ganke Inc. Production towards the highway.

Meanwhile, Leon, who did not know that Anne had went home, was still arguing with Steffi who insisted on asking him to fire Anne.

"Don't make too many excuses now, Leon, tell me who you're going to choose. Are you going to choose me, your wife, or choose Marianne, that little flirt ..."

"Steffi!! Didn't I tell you earlier never to call Anne a seducer again? She is a representative from the UAL campus who works at my company. She entered this office through a strict selection from dozens of students who registered. Besides I didn't choose her directly. However, because of the results, she entered the highest criteria among the others, that's why she can be an intern here. After all, before you said Anne was a flirt, why didn't you look at yourself in the mirror first, Steffi?" Leon rebuked, full of emotion, cutting Steffi's words for the umpteenth time.

"What do you mean to ask me to look in the mirror, Leon? Do you think I deserve to be compared with her? Marianne is a poor girl who is looking for a rich man like you to be her husband, weren't you the one who said this to me? You should have realized that, Leon. Why do you think that cheap woman even went to England in the first place? Marianne purposely went to England to find other men like you to be her next target after failing to have you, after you realized what a sly female fox she really was," said Steffi loudly, continuing to insult Anne.

Hearing Anne repeatedly being referred to as a sly seductive woman who was a gold digger made Leon furious. Without a word, Leon then grabbed Steffi's hand and forced her to get up from the sofa and dragged her in front of the standing mirror in his room.

When they were already in front of the mirror Leon said, "Look at yourself, Steffi! Do you think you are better than Anne?"

"Of course, I'm your wife, Leon. I'm Mrs. Ganke! The gap between her level and mine are so far away. I'm an honorable woman who..."

Ripped!

Leon suddenly pulled the Chanel blouse that Steffi was wearing so tightly that she screamed loudly because she was worried that the expensive necklace was broken. "Leon, are you crazy? Why did you rip my blouse? Do you know this shirt is a limited edition of this year's winter series? Why did you do this, Leon?" Steffi screamed in annoyance, while holding her expensive necklace with two hands. She cared more about jewelry attached to her body rather than protecting her already exposed body.

Instead of answering his wife's question, Leon continued his activities. He used scissors to remove the clothes that wrapped Steffi's body. Steffi, who couldn't do anything, just gave up when her husband cut her expensive clothes, until finally only a bra and g-string were left to cover her sexy body.

After stripping her off almost naked, Leon then turned Steffi's body towards the large mirror in front of them. At first, Steffi did not want to obey Leon's wishes. However, because Leon's strength was greater, she finally complied. With his right hand Leon grabbed Steffi's jaw and grabbed her from behind.

"Look at yourself! Without the expensive things I bought you, you are also nothing, Steffi. Don't forget where you come from! You were just a poor woman who lived only because of Anne's mercy. Your level and Anne's level were different from the start. If you didn't throw yourself in front of me, then maybe you wouldn't be here right now. So watch your words, Steffi, because everything you said earlier to insult Anne were insults to yourself. You are a cheap woman, you are a poor woman, and you are an uneducated woman, so don't you ever say that to Anne, because she's so far above you. And about her moving to England, it's because she goes to one of the best art colleges in London, not looking for rich men like you did back then to trap me," Leon said at length, trying to remind Steffi of who she really was. "And your title as Mrs Ganke exists because you married me and if I throw you away, you won't be able to use that title again, Steffi. So from now on, you pay attention to your attitude. Don't let me revoke your title and throw you back on the streets where you were taken by Anne a few years ago," added Leon again, while continuing to stare at Steffi from the reflection of the mirror, where at this time Steffi was also looking at the same mirror as him.

While Leon was talking, Steffi didn't make a sound at all as she was stunned by his words and also because of Leon's grip on her lips. Her voice was caught in her throat when she heard Leon bring up her past that she had tried to bury deeply, a past that she had never told anyone.

Leon then released his grip from Steffi's jaw, when he felt Steffi's tears were dripping down on his hands. Without the slightest guilt, Leon then left Steffi just like that. The loud sound of the door slamming made Steffi finally realize that what had just happened was a reality. It was not just a dream.

Shortly after Leon left, Steffi then fell down in front of the mirror, with tears already streaming down her very pale face. She cried silently while holding her chest which felt tight due to all of Leon's words.

"I'm not teasing you, Leon. Didn't you also give me a chance at that time? Wasn't that time you came to me first to ask my name, Leon? Then why now do you call me a gold digger? Why are you this cruel, Leon? I'm much prettier than Marianne, I'm also much better in bed than her. Then how come you have the heart to say that to me? Are my patience and understanding to you not enough? Has my service as a wife not satisfied you? Boo hoo..." Steffi cried for the umpteenth time because of Marianne. It was because of Marianne that she got this harsh treatment. Her hatred for Marianne was already at its highest level by now.

"Just watch out, Marianne, you will regret that you're working in my husband's office. I will make your image as an innocent girl disappear, Marianne. Don't call me Steffi if I can't destroy you. Wait for it, Marianne ... I hate you, Marianne, I hate you arrrgghh…!"
