I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 585 - Annoying Cousin

Anne looked very happy enjoying the food that the waiters serve them. Jack didn't not take Anne to eat risotto because he changed his mind. He chose to take Anne to a restaurant on the shores of Lake Geneva. Now they were back to that place with Christian, who currently looked very happy playing outside with Erick and Nicholas on the edge of the lake. Several times, Christian was seen throwing food to the swans in the lake, just as Christian's mother was very happy to see the beautiful white animals dancing on the water, approaching him when the food was thrown.

From inside the restaurant, Jack chuckled at his son's adorable behavior.

"Thank you babe, I wouldn't be as happy as I am today if you didn't fight to keep and give birth to Christian a few years ago. Forgive me for being such a bastard," said Jack quietly when Anne had finished eating, his hands already gripped Anne's hand on the table.

"Jack..."

"Don't talk, Anne, let me do the talking now. I'm really a very lucky man to have you, I'm very grateful. I love you very much, Anne. I'm sorry if the way I show love to you is too much."

Anne smiled. "I'm not leaving you. I know you're still traumatized by Sophia Higgins, aren't you?"

Jack's expression immediately changed when she mentioned about Sophia Higgins who was the mastermind behind his separation from Anne three years ago.

"No, you're wrong. My feelings for that woman have gone since I found out she was having an affair with Edmund," Jack answered quickly.

"Are you serious?" Anne's eyes widened as she spoke, not from surprise but because she was teasing Jack.

Jack growled. "I'm serious, babe."

Anne laughed seeing Jack's expression at the moment. She was very pleased to be able to tease Jack. However, Anne's smile immediately disappeared when she saw several men approaching the table where she was sitting with Jack. Jack, who could read Anne's change in attitude, immediately followed the direction of his wife's eyes and smiled sarcastically when he recognized the male figures who were now almost in front of him.

"Well, it's a great luck to meet a brother we haven't seen in a long time," said a man about Jack's age quite loudly, his eyes still focused on Anne even though he said Jack's name.

"You're right, son. This brother of yours has been very arrogant since he met his biological grandfather." A man with white hair joined in, which was then greeted with a smile by the first man.

Jack smiled faintly. "So after what you've been trying to do behind my back, you still think of me as a brother?"

Without shame, the man who was the same age as Jack immediately reached out his hand towards Anne. "Hi sister-in-law, I'm Edmund, your husband's cousin." Edmund Immanuel ignored Jack's previous question and chose to get acquainted with Anne.

Seeing Edmund reach out to his wife, Jack acted quickly. Jack violently parried Edmund's hand. "Don't start again, Edmund. Did what have I do to you not enough to deter you?"

Edmund chuckled, holding his hand which was a little sore. "See, didn't you hear, Dad? Jack is the one who is responsible for all the bad luck that has happened to us so far, without us knowing he seems to have spoken the truth."

"You were really mean to your own uncle, Jack." Johnny, the adopted brother of the late Calvin Muller, Jack's father, also spoke.

"Actually there are a few things that I have to straighten out here. First, we are not brothers. There is no blood relationship between me and you, Edmund, especially with you, Johnny. Second, what I took from you is mine that you stole decades ago. So I am innocent," Jack said quietly, with a tone full of intimidation.

Johnny Immanuel growled. "You were a kid when Daddy gave me his assets, Jack. Even your father, Calvin, at that time didn't mind when Daddy gave some of his assets to me. But why do you young ones dare to talk like that, even calling me a thief. You really have no manners at all, Jack."

"Oh, is it true that Daddy was silent? If Daddy was silent, why is it clearly written in the will that the three hotels you took are still in my name? Not your name, Johnny?" Jack immediately gave a deadly question to Johnny.

"Of course it's still in your name, Jack. Because then I..."

"You can't get anything from Grandfather because you are not his son, even though Daddy is also an adopted son, but Daddy knows himself better and is loved by grandfather because my Daddy comes from a good family, unlike you who was taken by the roadside at that time, Johnny."

"Jackson Patrick Muller!!!" Edmund shouted loudly suddenly. Edmund could not accept Jack insulting his father.

Anne was shocked when she heard Edmund's very loud scream. She even almost dropped the glass that was on the table because she accidentally bumped it when she was about to cover her mouth with both hands. Luckily, the glass was immediately held by Jack who was agile.

Johnny Immanuel's face was as red as a crab at the moment because of Jack's very sarcastic words earlier. He did not accept his parentage being brought up again by Jack, because that's what caused Johnny not to get an inheritance like Calvin Muller at that time. His unclear family background made their father unwilling to entrust his wealth to Johnny and chose Calvin Muller as the sole heir. That was what made Johnny angry. He did not accept that he was not given the same inheritance as his brother Calvin, so that finally Johnny tried to steal Jack's wealth from within the company and had time to steal several important files related to the ownership of several hotels which he finally admitted to owning. However, because of the will, Johnny finally had trouble changing the owner's name and insisted on refusing to return the important files to Jack, so Jack finally used Robert Higgins to retrieve the important documents which had now been returned to Jack.

"Whether you want to defend yourself in whatever ways, there's an authentic evidence in the files. It's clear that my name is listed there as the owner of the 3 hotels that you have controlled for the past few years, so if you still don't accept the fact, why did the files return to me? Please use a lawyer or the police to sue me. We'll meet at the court and see who will be the winner, "Jack said again, challenging the father and son who had been trying to bring him down.

Edmund's jaw clenched. "You're still the same as before, Jack, still pompous and very arrogant. Remember you can't always be at the top, especially with these characters of yours. I'm sure there are many workers who don't like you, you'll see."

"Calm down, Edmund, I have enough money. I can find more loyal and obedient workers again very easily, especially now that I am the most influential businessman in Europe. You certainly know that I am not Jackson Patrick Muller anymore. My name now is Jackson Knight Clarke, a name that actually has stuck with me since birth. The power of the Clarke family in Luxembourg is enormous. So don't ever dream of being able to shake Muller Finance International like you did for the last four years when it was still under Erick. It's best if you go now from this place and don't spoil our appetites," said Jack flatly with great arrogance. He was deliberately showing off his current power to Edmund and his father so that they both burned even more.

Edmund was so angry that his teeth were even grinding against each other. Jack's words were very sharp. But his anger suddenly disappeared when he saw Anne.

"I want to see how long you can stand on your arrogance, Jack. We'll see who will laugh at the end. And as for you, beautiful sister-in-law, you better leave this bastard man. He has slept with so many girls after knowing Sophia, his fiancée, gave her virginity to me hahaha…"

"Fuck! Get out of here quickly, Edmund!! Don't let me kill you!" Jack shouted loudly.

Edmund's laughter got louder when he saw Jack was angry. It turned out that teasing his wife immediately made Jack angry and Edmund liked this.

"I'm serious, sister-in-law, you better get away from him and come to me. I'm stronger in bed, you will definitely…."

Bam!

Edmund couldn't finish his sentence because the punch that had come from Jack's hand had hit his face and knocked him down on the floor.

Jack growled. "If I can't kill you right now, don't call me Jackson Knight Clarke…"
