Jack and Anne hand in hand escorted Doctor Marcelo to the front yard, when he finished making sure Christian’s forehead wound was okay, the doctor who was still quite young said goodbye to continue his work at the hospital.

“Thanks again for the help, doctor. I’m really indebted to you.”

Doctor Marcelo shook his head. “Please don’t talk like that, sir. What I do is my duty as a doctor.” 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

“We are lucky to have a doctor like you, doc,” said Anne sincerely. “I hope you will continue to be with us.”

Doctor Marcelo just smiled in response to Anne’s words, because he didn’t want to make his co-workers replace their duties too long at the hospital, finally Doctor Marcelo said goodbye to Anne and Jack again. Using his official car, Doctor Marcelo left Clarke’s mansion.

“Let’s go inside, Suri and Christian are waiting inside.” Jack invited Anne into the house not long after the car driven by the doctor Marcelo drove away.

Anne nodded slowly, although at this moment she felt very uncomfortable but Anne chose not to keep it to herself. Anne did not want to spoil her morning with an unnecessary argument, Anne wanted to enjoy her company with her family comfortably.

When Anne and Jack arrived, everyone including Christian had already taken their seats. Likewise with food, all delicious food that is appetizing is also neatly arranged on the table. Since everything was ready, Jack then invited everyone to eat. The dexterous Anne immediately went about her usual duties by fetching some food for Jack before filling his own plate.

“Mom...”

.....

“Salmon is good for you, honey,” said Anne softly, ignoring Suri’s protests.

Suri pursed her lips. “I don’t like pan seared salmon!”

“From now on you should like it then.”

One thing that Anne always wins at the dinner table is her ability to force her family members to finish the food she serves, just like she was doing with Suri. Even though she doesn’t really like salmon, Suri still eats her food voraciously.

“Mommy will help you take your medicine after your meal,” says Anne softly to Christian who has just wiped his lips with a handkerchief.

“I’m not a child, Mom!”

“Mommy knows, it’s just...”

“Kainer will help me, Mom.” Christian again refuses the offer given by his mother.

From where he was sitting, Kainer immediately agreed with Christian’s words, trying to convince Anne.

Anne pursed her lips. “Okay then, Mommy won’t insist. But you have to finish your food.”

Christian nodded slowly without changing his facial expression, being at the same table with all his family members like this made him feel uncomfortable. Christian still feels strange eating in a complete line-up like this after all that has happened.

While everyone was enjoying their meal, suddenly Derek entered the house. One of Christian’s best bodyguards approaches Jorge and whispers a few words to the butler.

“Are you sure?” asked Jorge quietly.

Derek nodded. “Sure, the man said his name clearly.”

Jorge gulped. “Keep the guy outside, I’ll report it to Mr. Jack.”

Without arguing Derek then immediately returned to the front page to carry out the instructions Jorge gave, a few minutes ago Robin Jones and Andres came. The two men force their way in to meet Christian.

Without thinking twice, Jorge then immediately approached Jack who was still enjoying his breakfast quietly with his family members.

Prank...

The fork in Jack’s hand immediately fell onto the plate after Jorge finished speaking, his face immediately became tense.

“What is it, sir?” Erick immediately reacted quickly.

Jack who was too surprised was silent, he did not respond to Erick’s question and this frustrated Erick.

“Explain what happened, Jorge?” Erick turned his question to Jorge who was still standing behind Jack with his head half lowered.

Jorge raised his face slowly. “The guy named Robin Jones is up front, he’s forcing his way in to meet the young master.”

“What?!!”

Erick and Kainer reacted simultaneously.

“Robin Jones you mean what is Robin Jones, Jorge?” asked Asher in a slightly trembling voice.

Jorge nodded.

“Damn it,” Asher growled hoarsely. “Turns out that bastard came sooner than expected.”

Suri gripped Asher’s arm tightly. “How is it, Asher?”

“Let him in.” Christian answers slowly. “Let him meet me.”

“Christ...”

“No Mom, don’t ban me.” Christian stops his mother from speaking. “Isn’t it very rude not to welcome guests?”

“But he’s a dangerous person, Christ. Mommy’s afraid...”

“What Christian says is true, Anne,” Jack said quietly. “We have to welcome the man, he’s come all the way from New York. You guys go up to the second floor, I’ll accompany Christian to welcome the great guest.”

“Jack...”

“It’s ok.” Jack reassured Anne. “I promise.”

Anne shook her head frantically, even though she had not met Robin Jones in person but all the descriptions of the man that Areez had given her were enough to frighten her. Anne worries that Robin will do something to Christian.

“Take Suri with you,” said Jack again.

“No!”

Jack turned to Suri. “You go up to the second floor with Mommy and Charlotte, don’t come down no matter what.”

Suri shook her head with teary eyes, her concern for her brother made Suri refuse to be ordered to hide. Suri wants to accompany Christian.

“Take your sister to the second floor, Asher,” Jack said coldly. “Keep her until everything is safe.”

Asher, who did not expect to receive such an order, could only nod in resignation. He knew that at this time he could not argue given the conditions that were not possible, without opening his lips Asher then grabbed Suri’s hand and invited her to immediately go up to the second floor. Although initially refused, Suri finally complied and was invited to go up to the second floor. She has learned enough from experience, Suri doesn’t want to get everyone into trouble because of her.

Seeing Suri and Asher go up to the second floor, Charlotte quickly caught up. Charlotte didn’t want to get herself into trouble.

“Promise me you’ll be fine, Jack,” said Anne hoarsely. “Take care of Christian.”

Jack pursed his lips. “Everything will be fine, don’t worry. Now go upstairs, I will greet the man.”

Anne nodded slowly, after giving her husband an affectionate kiss, Anne immediately stepped into the stairs to catch up with Suri and Charlotte who had gone up first.

Once the two most important women in his life are out of the way, Jack then puts his hand on Christian’s shoulder, which has been locking his lips for a long time. “Come and meet Robin Jones, let’s face him together.”

“I can handle it myself, Dad,” Christian says quietly, the corner of his eye darting at Erick and Kainer who were already walking towards the front yard first.

Jack smiled. “Daddy knows, but please give Daddy a chance to do Daddy’s duty as a father this time. Let Daddy do something useful for you.”

Christian lifts his face to look at his father who is already standing. “Okay, Daddy can accompany me to meet Robin. But Daddy has to promise me one thing first.”

“Promise, promise what?”

“Don’t do anything, let me face the man. He’s mine,” Christian says quietly.

Jack pursed his lips. “Okay, Daddy won’t interfere.”

Christian smiles. “Ok, let’s meet the grand guest. It’s unethical to make him wait too long.”

As nearly ten minutes pass, Christian and Robin meet. But the two of them still locked their lips together, the two of them only standing two meters apart and looking at each other. He’s a man who loves the same girl who is assessing each other’s strengths in silence.

“Finally we meet.” Robin was the first to speak. “I guess without me needing to introduce myself first, you already know who I am, don’t you?”

“How could I not know who you are, Robin Jones. You are the only person who has the heart to separate a newborn from its mother,” Christian replies sarcastically without further ado.

Robin Jones laughed. “How dare you separate a baby from its mother? Oh come on, don’t make me laugh out loud, Christian. You alone know best who’s at fault here.”

“Zwetta came to me when she became Elena, I didn’t make her as Elena. So I’m totally innocent and you can’t blame me for this problem, the only person you have to blame is Jody Wilson who made Zwetta as It was Elena who fell in love with me in the end,” Christian says firmly, after for the past few weeks imagining his meeting with Robin Jones, Christian has decided to speak firmly to the man. Robin must know if Zwetta is meant for him.

Robin narrowed his eyes. “You’re really good at tongue- Zwetta was fooled by you so easily.”

“I’m not cheating, I sincerely love her as well as Zwetta. If we don’t love each other how could we possibly have children?”

Robin’s face immediately turned tense.

“And even though Zwetta doesn’t remember me or our memories right now, I’m sure one day she’ll remember everything. And when that time comes, I’m pretty sure she’ll hate you. She’ll know what kind of person you are, Robin Jones.”
