I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 264 - Sophia's Secret

Jack woke up from his sleep because he felt uncomfortable when Anne kept moving while lying on his arm.

"Please don't move around, Anne. You are going to wake my junior," Jack whispered softly as he grabbed Anne more tightly, trying to keep her calm.

In Jack's arms, Anne said, "Ouch, it hurts, my head hurts, Jack."

Jack, who had not slept soundly, opened his eyes quickly. He just realized it when he heard Anne complain about her headache.

"What's wrong?" He asked quietly, without taking his hand from Anne's waist.

"My head hurts," Anne said in pain, clutching her head which felt like it was being stabbed with needles.

A smile appeared on Jack's handsome face, he knew what Anne felt right now was the result of drinking too much. Without another word Jack then released his arms from her body, he got up and grabbed a glass of water on the nightstand.

Jack gently helped Anne to sit up. "Drink, you'll feel better after drinking lots of water."

"Is it true?"

"Yeah, just drink it. After that you should get back to sleep," replied Jack softly with a warm smile.

Anne, who had no other choice, finally obeyed his words. She drank the water Jack gave her quickly without leaving anything behind. Once Anne finished one large glass of water, she laid down again, she tried to get back to sleep because when she sat down her headache was even more painful.

"Never try to drink alcohol with another man, don't even dare to touch alcohol without my knowledge," Jack gave a threat to Anne who had closed her eyes again.

"I didn't know how exactly I was capable of drinking that much liquor, Jack. I didn't even realize it. I just drank it without thinking, besides I never thought that such a bitter drink would make me feel like this afterward. Arrggghh… my head hurts so bad, I'm dizzy," Anne replied regretfully, cursing her stupid action of drinking Jack's liquor which she had never even touched in her life.

"Well don't talk too much for now. All you need is more rest. With sleep your headache will go away slowly," Jack said softly as he took the blanket to cover Anne's body more tightly.

"How can a headache go away with just sleep though?" Anne grumbled in annoyance, she felt that Jack was not taking her headache seriously at the moment.

Jack, who was at the bottom of Anne's feet, raised his face and said. "I'm much more experienced than you, Anne. So just follow my words, please. Go back to sleep or do you prefer me to do something else to put you to sleep?"

"No… thank you, I will just go back to sleep," said Anne quickly without opening her eyes, since she didn't even have any energy left to open her eyes. Anne finally forced herself to sleep following Jack's order. At this time, she had no other choice. Anne finally tried to close her eyes to go to dreamland by force.

After making sure that Anne went back to sleep, Jack then sat down on the sofa. His empty stomach started screaming for some food because he hadn't eaten anything since noon. Realizing that it was late and all the servants were asleep, Jack decided to find some food in the pantry. Looking for a portion of food at three o'clock in the morning was a new thing for Jack. He was used to being served with food by his servants and now he had to warm up his own food in the pantry to fill up his stomach. Luckily, the waiters kept the food neat, so Jack didn't have any problems finding them. While eating some grapes, Jack warmed the roast meat in the microwave. After five minutes, the freshly warmed roast meat was now ready to eat.

Jack, who was used to being neat in doing everything including eating, looked like he was trying hard to arrange his food tidily on the plate. After arranging the meat nicely, Jack then poured barbecue sauce on top of the meat. A weird recipe like this was okay for him when he was starving to death like this. The most important thing was that his stomach would be filled with food. Sitting alone at the dinner table enjoying the food he prepared carelessly wasn't so bad for Jack. He enjoyed his late dinner in a rather dim kitchen.

After finishing his food, Jack then took his dirty plate to the pantry and placed it in the sink. He wiped his mouth with a tissue and drank a glass of water before finally deciding to go back up to his room. He wished to follow Anne to the dreamland. He was sure that Anne must be fast asleep by now after remembering her expression of pain a few minutes ago. Jack's guess was right. When he got to the room, Anne had not changed positions at all. She was still sleeping on her side, hugging the pillow tightly.

"You shouldn't try things you can't even handle, Anne. In the end, you are the one who got in trouble. You are so naughty," said Jack softly as he sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Anne's peaceful face.

Jack grabbed Anne's hand which was stretched out towards the edge of the bed. He kissed the back of Anne's hand and tucked it back into the blanket. Drowsiness also came when Jack was just about to check his cell phone. He finally gave up when he couldn't even open his eyes anymore. He climbed into bed, lay next to Anne, and hugged her from behind tightly. Jack fell asleep quickly in that very comfortable position. Sleeping with Anne and sharing each other's warmth together in peace, a simple dream of a Jackson Patrick Muller that he never told anyone.

Sophia Higgins who had been allowed to go home was sulking at her mother. She told her mother what exactly happened until she decided to cut her own hand. Hannah and Robert Higgins could stay silent after hearing the words coming out of their only daughter's mouth. Both of them occasionally hugged Sophia who was laying on the hotel bed where they were staying.

"You should calm down, Honey. Don't think about it anymore. You should leave Jack to us. Mommy and Daddy will make sure Jack comes back to you. Remember one thing, his parents have arranged your marriage with him. That's why you shouldn't be afraid, Dear. You are the only woman who will be by his side. You will be Muller's wife, you will give birth to the next Muller successor," Hannah whispered softly while embracing Sophia on the bed.

"That's true, Sweetie. You have to calm down and get some sleep. We are here and we will take care of Jack. You don't have to worry about it," Robert spoke softly, adding to his wife's words while calming Sophia.

Sophia was crying after hearing her parents, she was sad and very sorry for the stupid actions that made her imperfect now. "How can a woman with one ovary give birth normally when the doctor in Japan already said I will never be able to get pregnant, Mom?"
