Love Worth Fighting For

210 Shocking information

Clarke’s family dinner this time felt so different because of Charlotte who continued to cling to Suri and Christian, Suri and Christian’s laughter continued to be heard as Charlotte repeated the events in their childhood that they had spent together several times.

Jack, who was still so disturbed by Elena’s pregnancy, could only remain silent, not saying much. And Anne realized this, but she chose not to directly ask her husband because she didn’t want to make things uncomfortable considering that Charlotte was currently in their midst.

“Are you sure about your decision to resign, dear?” asked Anne in surprise, commenting on Charlotte’s words that she wanted to resign from her job at the largest social organization in the world today.

Charlotte nodded quickly. “Yes, Aunty. I’m already too bored with this job, I want to gain experience by trying new things.”

“Does your father agree?” asked Anne again, Anne who knew Chester quite well was worried about Charlotte’s decision.

“Daddy supports whatever decision I make, Auntie,” Charlotte replied with a smile.

“So where will you live when you quit your job, Charlotte?” asked Suri with a mouth full of food.

“Geneva.”

Suri’s eyes widened. “Serious?!”

.....

“Yeah, I want to live in this city,” Charlotte replies with a smile, her feet under the table touching Christian’s on purpose.

And Christian just smiles a little at what Charlotte has just done, after resting for almost thirty minutes Christian’s anxiety has faded a bit.

“Yeeeyyy... I have another shopping friend,” Suri screamed loudly.

Anne just shook her head at Suri’s words, as well as Asher who had only been a good listener like Erick and Nicholas.

The only person who really didn’t seem to be enjoying dinner was Jack, Jack was really really bothered by the image of Elena that wouldn’t leave his head. Although previously he had doubted the father of Elena’s baby, Jack knew that Christian was the father of the baby. It was his selfishness that was so great that he had time to doubt who the father Elena was carrying this morning.

Jack was the first to leave the dining table, seeing that, Erick immediately wiped his lips quickly and immediately followed Jack into the living room followed by Nicholas who did the same.

“What happened with Uncle, Auntie?” asked Asher half-whispering to Anne.

Anne smiled. “Uncle’s work is very busy today, dear. And maybe that’s why he’s not in a good mood tonight.”

“Oh no wonder Uncle looks different than usual,” Asher said quietly.

“This sort of thing is common, dear. You needn’t worry,” whispered Anne softly.

Asher nodded slowly and went back to eating, Asher chose to be busy with his food rather than join in the exciting chat between Suri, Charlotte and Christian.

When Christian had wiped his lips with a handkerchief, Nicholas who had been watching him for a long time then walked over to Christian.

“Mr Jack is waiting for you in the parlor, young master,” Nicholas said in a half-whisper.

Christian nods slowly. “Okay.”

Nicholas smiled, after that he walked back to the living room leaving Christian who was drinking water again. Christian could already guess if his father was wanting to interrogate him again like before.

Seeing Christian approaching Jack, Anne then took Charlotte and Suri to the lounge near the garden. As for Asher, he has to let himself be the target of Christian’s hatred when Erick calls him to join them in the living room.

“So what does Daddy want to ask me to have to ask me to go home like this? If Daddy wants to ask about my closeness to Charlotte I can explain over the phone, there’s no need to ask me to go home like this,” Christian sarcastically, seeing Asher’s arrival in the midst of them made Christian feel uncomfortable talking to his father.

Asher’s face immediately reddened, he knew Christian was being sarcastic.

“Where did you take the girl, Christ?” Jack asked quietly.

Christian’s eyes narrow. “How many times do I have to tell Daddy not to interfere with my problems? Have I not made it clear many times that if Elena is mine, Daddy doesn’t have to interfere. I can take care of Elena in my own way.”

“Can you take care of Elena in your own way?” Jack repeats Christian’s words in a high pitched voice. “Are your words justifiable?”

“Daddy doubting me?” Christian asks back in a high tone, doubtful of his ability to make Christian angry.

Jack clenched his fists. “Did you hide that girl in the villa?”

Christian’s face turns red. “What do you really want Daddy?”

“Daddy did ask you to punish her, Christ. But Daddy didn’t ask you to be a jerk to hide a pregnant girl like that in such a secluded place,” said Jack loudly, starting to provoke Christian’s provocation. “Is this what Luis taught you, huh?”

“Pregnant?”

“What? Who’s pregnant?”

Asher and Nicholas shouted at the same time, commenting on Jack’s words.

“Who told Daddy about Elena and her pregnancy? Was it Kainer who leaked the secret?”

“Daddy doesn’t need anyone’s help figuring this out,” Jack said, lying slightly.

Christian, who has been overcome by emotion, immediately stood up, he was so provoked by his father’s answer, which seemed very arrogant. “Daddy, how much did Kainer pay to tell the secret?”

“Paying Kainer? What should Daddy pay Kainer for?”

“Don’t lie to me, Daddy!” snaps Christian loudly. “I’m not a kid that Daddy can fool.”

“What’s this? Why do you have to speak in such a high tone?” Anne asked in a breathless tone, Anne who had previously been fetching water in the kitchen was startled by Christian’s screams. She therefore decided to run into the living room to see what was going on.

Christian’s anger fades a little when he sees his mother’s unexpected arrival, but it doesn’t last long because Christian sees Kainer coming from the main door. The person Christian accuses of being a traitor finally appears. With Christian half running towards Kainer, without giving Kainer a chance to speak, Christian immediately threw a punch right at the bespectacled man’s face. Kainer, who was not ready to take Christian’s punch, fell to the ground with blood on her lips, Christian’s punch was really so strong.

“Christ!” cried Anne loudly. “What are you doing? Why are you suddenly hitting Kainer like that?”

“Death is a proper punishment for a traitor and Kainer deserves it,” Christian replied quickly, as fast as his hands wanted to hit Kainer again but his intentions were restrained by Asher who immediately hugged him from behind.

Realizing that Asher wanted to stop him, Christian then forcibly released Asher’s embrace and immediately gave him a punch in the stomach which made Asher fall to the floor too. Seeing Asher fall, Anne screamed loudly. And Anne’s scream was heard by Suri who then ran to the source of the sound in a hurry.

Not wanting to see Christian hurt more people, Erick then moves quickly. Using his self-defense skills that are better than Christian’s, Erick manages to stop Christian’s madness who wants to launch another punch at Kainer who is trying to get up from the floor.

“Let go of Erick, let me go. Don’t interfere in my business, I have to teach this ignorant traitor a lesson,” Christian shouts full of emotion, Christian not only looks angry he also looks so disappointed in Kainer who he thinks has betrayed him.

“Patience young master,” said Erick slowly

“No, I can’t have a good talk with this traitor. He must die by my hands,” Christian says loudly.

“You are free to do anything to me, sir. But later after I show you something,” Kainer replies quietly, although Christian has been cursing at him ever since but Kainer remains so calm.

Christian spits on the floor. “Don’t dream, you have no right to control me!”

“You and everyone should know that Elena is innocent,” Kainer repeated. “The information that Miss Suri gave is incorrect, it wasn’t Elena who did it. Miss Suri already...”

“Kainer!!” Jack, Anne and Christian scream in unison.

“Watch your words!” squealed Jack in blood. “Don’t talk carelessly, who are you calling already gave you that kind of information, huh!”

Kainer, who had been preparing for his death since he decided to come to Geneva, didn’t look scared at all in the face of all the Clarke family members.

“Miss Suri, your daughter has recognized the wrong person, sir. The masked girl who is said to be one of the kidnappers is not Elena, Elena and the masked girl are two people who...
