I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 643 - "Sensitive"

While Nicholas and Erick were talking, Alice continuously pounded the table. She immediately vented her frustration upon hearing everything the newly arrived men had to say.

"The mad fox and the lion come together, what a great couple!" Alice cursed in a rising voice.

"Don't worry. We won't let their plan work. Currently, the security system in the company has been repaired," Nicholas said quickly.

Alice shook her head. "I don't think being friends is their main goal, Nick. I'm sure they have a master plan they haven't worked out yet."

"How do you know that this is not their main plan?" Erick asked suddenly.

Alice turned her face and looked at Erick. "Both Giselle and Leon are rich people, they have quite a lot of wealth and I'm sure their goal is not money. Their goal of becoming close is to devise a sinister plot to separate Master and Anne."

"When two bad people who have the same goal establish a friendship, what else do they want other than working together?" Alice added again adding to her previous words.

Clap ... clap ...

"You're really smart, Alice. To be honest I didn't even think about that," Nicholas said quickly praising Alice.

Alice took a deep breath. "This kind of thing doesn't require intelligence to analyze,. Nick. This is called using a woman's way of thinking, men as insensitive as you guys will not understand. You two are just like Master, both slow in acting. You should have gotten rid of that fox from the start, so things like this don't happen."

"At that time Master was looking for a secretary, whose fault you just left! Do you think finding a secretary who is agile and clever is easy?" said Erick in a rising voice. He didn't like being called an insensitive man.

Hearing Erick's words made Alice smile. She slowly got up and approached Erick. "Whose fault are you saying? Of course it's your fault! From the start you weren't strict at all with Master. If only you were firm, I'm sure Master won't be that bad to Anne. Anyway, it already happened, and Anne, who is kind, has also forgiven Master, so there's no point in getting angry. What a waste of energy."

"If Madam can forgive Master, then why can't you forgive Erick, Alice?" Nicholas suddenly interrupted Alice's words. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

BaM!

A huge invisible boom hit Alice's chest at this moment. Nicholas' words left her speechless, whereas previously she was ready to face Erick and argue again with his ex-lover.

"I-I'm not Anne, who has a heart as soft as cotton, who easily forgives people's mistakes. I am Alice, so don't compare me to Anne," Alice stuttered with a red face.

After saying that, Alice then immediately left the place and went straight to her room by leaving all her laptops and important files on the table. Seeing Alice ran away, Nicholas chuckled.

"See, your girl still loves you, Erick. So don't give up, try to get her heart back," Nicholas said quietly teasing Erick.

Eric took a deep breath. "I dunno, I'm..."

"Don't touch my stuff!!" Alice screamed back loudly.

Alice who realized that her belongings were left behind immediately rushed back to the living room, even though she had arrived in front of her bedroom. Out of breath, Alice tidied up the dozens of papers that were scattered on the table. She shouted again when Erick was about to touch her laptops.

"I just want to help you turn it off," said Erick slowly explaining.

"I can do it myself. I don't need your help." Alice replied curtly while snatching her two laptops which were still open, there were big secrets in both laptops and Alice didn't want Erick to see it.

Without turning them off first, Alice immediately brought her two closed laptops along with a pile of files that she arranged randomly. Because he couldn't bear to see Alice having a little trouble, Nicholas offered to help.

"You take the files with you, Nick," Alice replied dryly, accepting the help offered by Nicholas.

"Okay."

Nicholas immediately brought the pile of files that Alice had just been working on. Without guilt, Alice then left the room to her room followed by Nicholas who helped her.

Seeing Alice's strange behavior made Erick scratch his hair that didn't itch. Because he was very tired, Erick decided to return to his own room which was in the hallway opposite Alice's room. Jack's mansion had more than 15 vacant rooms in the main building and 10 servant rooms in the back building. With so many unoccupied rooms, Jack ordered Erick and Nicholas to live with him, as well as when Alice arrived. Because of that, everyone closest to Jack currently lived under the same roof as him.

After arriving at his room, Erick didn't take a shower immediately. He was still thinking about the words that Alice said earlier while lying on the big bed.

"It seems that what Alice said is true, I am indeed insensitive," said Erick softly with his eyes still staring at the clean white ceiling of his room. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

While he was thinking about Alice's words, Erick suddenly realized that he had not told his master about today's findings, but when he was about to take his cell phone, Erick realized that it was already very late. Erick didn't want to disturb his master's rest. He finally decided to take a shower before going to bed and report his findings to Jack the next morning.

< The Allens Residence >

Crash...

Crash...

Giselle threw some of the photo figures that were in her room on the floor full of emotion. The beautiful pictures of her taken when she won various beauty contests after fixing her appearance were now scattered on the floor.

"Giselle, what are you doing?" rebuked a middle-aged man who had a slight resemblance to Giselle quite loudly.

Giselle turned and looked at her father who was now standing in front of the servants who were in front of the door.

"Don't meddle in my business, Dad. I'm just in the mood to redecorate my room," Giselle lied.

"I'm not someone you can fool, Giselle. Tell me what's wrong?"

Giselle looked at her father from the bed. "If I tell you, will you help me, Daddy?"

"If your problem is that Jackson Patrick Muller then..."

"Jackson Knight Clarke, Dad. That's Jack's name now." Giselle immediately cut her father's words in a loud voice. She didn't like her father to continue mentioning Jack's old name.

The man folded his arms across his chest. "It's the same, he's still the same person. That stupid first love of yours, isn't it? You'd better stay away from him, Giselle. The Mullers alone are influential enough in Geneva, especially now that he uses his grandfather's last name. His power is now even greater, so don't make trouble with him. Isn't he already married and has a child?"

Giselle bit her lower lip hard. "Get out...I hate you, Daddy. You're always like this, I'm your only child but why don't you ever want to help me!!!"

"Giselle..."

"No, Mommy, please leave too. I don't want to talk to all of you, get out of my room quickly!!"

The husband and wife then left Giselle's room with the servants, leaving Giselle alone. Giselle's anger was always like this, driving away anyone in front of her.

"Aaarggghhh....! Stupid Jack! You're mean, Jack. Can't you see how much I love you since decades ago... sob... I hate you, Jack... can't you be a little sensitive to me, Jack? Look at me, Jack, I am a woman who loves you very much. I am sincere to you, not like that poor woman, only I understand you the most, Jack..."
