I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 276 - Naze Tower?

Just as Jack was about to wipe the sweat from her chest, Anne quickly grabbed the small towel that Jack was holding. She chose to clean her own body without Jack's help. After feeling all the sweat stuck to her had been cleaned, Anne then continue to drink, because her thirst had not been completely quenched.

"Are you done?"

"Yes," answered Anne quickly.

"Okay, then come with me now," said Jack quietly. He stepped up to the pier, leaving the beach.

"Where are we going, Jack? I still want to play on the beach!!" protested Anne loudly, but she followed Jack from behind with her shoes. Because she had brought the water bottle and the small towel, Anne seemed to have a hard time carrying her high heels. She didn't want to wear those painful shoes because right now her feet were full of sand, she didn't want to hurt herself.

Seeing Anne struggled, Jack approached her and immediately grabbed the high heels from Anne's hand with his left hand and wrapped his right hand around Anne's waist.

"Jack..."

"Shut up, I just want to help you walk. I'm sure you must be tired after running around like a child, hunting for crabs to be released again, weird. If you can save, collect and take it home, you should be able to do your job with a little result," said Jack curtly, cutting Anne's words.

"They were little crabs, Jack, do you want to eat crabs like that? Are you that poor and can't ouch! ... Jack, that hurts!!!" Anne screamed in pain as she felt Jack's grip on her waist suddenly become very strong.

With an indescribably sharp look in his eyes, Jack said, "I still have enough money to buy you ten kilograms of crabs every day for ten years, Anne, so don't talk nonsense."

Anne closed her lips quickly. She felt that she had said the wrong thing. That was why she chose to be quiet and didn't say much for fear of saying the wrong thing again. She only followed Jack's footsteps which led her to a fairly old tower near the pier. It was a tower that Anne could climb and had not seen before.

"Wow!." Anne marveled at the building in front of her, her lips were wide open as she gazed at one of the very old towers.

"Naze tower, this tower was once intended as a navigation aid, and is now turned into a museum, art gallery, and a tea room." Jack spoke quietly, trying to explain the building that stood before them at this moment. "Naze Tower has been standing since 1720," he added.

"Established in 1720? Wow, that's very old, but this building still looks solid and beautiful. Can we go up there, Jack?" Like a child, Anne pointed at the top of the tower with sparkling eyes.

Jack smiled as he nodded his head.

"Really?? Ahh, come on up, Jack, I want to go up!! I want to see the view from up there! Come on, Jack, come on!!!!" Anne screamed impatiently, she moved in Jack's arms. Luckily, Jack's body was much bigger and stronger than Anne's, finally he was able to withstand the movements that Anne made.

"Anne!!! Calm down, you're always reckless. Get used to stay calm first, pay attention to the surroundings where you are right now, whether it's safe to walk or not. Don't get excited like that. If you keep acting stupid like that you'll get hurt someday. And…"

"As long as you are beside me, I'm not afraid of anything." Anne cut Jack's words quickly, her beautiful smile spread wide so that her dimples were clearly visible on her cheeks which made her even more beautiful.

Jack's heart beat very fast when he heard Anne's answer, and seeing her beautiful smile, he really couldn't bear to see Anne like that.

"Come on, Jack, I can't wait to get to the top of the tower." Anne's voice snapped Jack out of his thoughts. Luckily, he got over himself right away.

They then climbed to the top of the tower by climbing a spiral staircase of 111 steps to the top of the tower which was 86 feet high. Jack walked behind Anne, guarding her from behind with their belongings. Anne, who was already very excited to get to the top, had to be patient, because she didn't want Jack to be angry with her again, because Jack had hit her calf several times so as not to climb up the spiral staircase too quickly.

After walking up for a while, Anne and Jack finally arrived at the top of the tower. The wind immediately slapped the two of them in the face when they reached the top of the building. Anne looked very happy to be at such height. She ran here and there to see the beach and the countryside 360° from the top of the Naze Tower. It was a beautiful sight that paid off the struggle of climbing the stairs to the top of the tower.

"Ah, it's really nice! The scenery is really beautiful in this place. The air is cool, the night sky looks more beautiful than this place. Without air pollution, the stars can be seen clearly. Ahhhh! I'm happy to be in this place!!!!" Anne shouted loudly as she spread her arms, she also took a lot of air to fill her lungs.

Jack smiled at Anne. Slowly, he put the things he was still holding onto the floor of the tower. With firm steps, Jack approached Anne. As he walked, he was seen reaching for something from inside his trousers. It was a jet-black rectangular box with a shiny swan symbol at the top. When he arrived beside Anne, who still had her eyes closed and stretched out her arms, Jack suddenly knelt down. He held out the opened box to Anne.

"Will you be the mother of my future children, Anne?" said Jack softly, his smile widened as he uttered the sentence he had been planning for days.

*****

In his car, Aaron was furious. He was very upset when Erick's assistant Jack refused entry after waiting outside for almost two hours.

"What a jerk! Jack and his assistant are both so annoying." Aaron cursed emotionally as he sat in the backseat as Daniel drove the car home.

"Patience, Boss, we have to calm down for now. Don't be so rash, the most important thing right now is..."

"How can I calm down, Daniel? I don't know where Anne is. I'm really worried right now, only Anne's safety is in my mind now. I'm afraid that something bad has happened to her, especially considering that she had moved in such a hurry, while I know Anne is a thoughtful person. She couldn't have acted this recklessly if something had not happened that endangered her. Anne is a smart woman, Daniel. She's full of good calculations." Aaron said quickly cutting Daniel's words loudly. Aaron knew very well that Anne would do very careful consideration before making a decision. "I'm afraid something bad has happened to her, Daniel, especially since her cell phone has been turned off since noon."

Daniel swallowed his saliva. He glanced at the mirror and was quite surprised when he saw Aaron's expression which looked very worried at this time.

Bam!

Aaron hit the back seat where Daniel was sitting suddenly.

"Let's go to the police station, Daniel. I'm sure Anne must have been kidnapped by now!!!"
