Chapter 259 - Behind Anne\'s Plan

Erick talked at length about what he heard from the police, after conducting an investigation on the two men who followed Anne. The two men did not know the name of the person who ordered them, because they only received money coming in with a photo of the target they had to get information about. However, because the police acted quickly, they finally managed to find the name of the account owner who had sent the money to the two stalkers, who turned out to be private detectives. At first, the police wanted to directly confirm the account owner, but Erick forbade him on Jack\'s orders. Erick said that he wanted to take care of everything amicably, so finally the police released the two private detectives who were immediately brought home by Erick to Jack\'s residence for further questioning.

Anne, who was sitting on the sofa, was silent when she saw Jack talking at length on the phone with Erick. She couldn\'t hear what Jack and Erick were talking about because Jack spoke in an almost inaudible voice.

"Whether you like it or not, you stay here for a while until I find a new place for you, Anne." Jack, who had just finished talking to Erick, made the decision for Anne to stay at his house.

"Jack..."

"I don\'t like being denied and it\'s for your own good, Anne, you don\'t know how desperate a crazy woman can be if they want something, Anne." Jack cut her words with emotion and in a very loud voice. He was very annoyed at Steffi, who dared to harm Anne. Even though at this time she only paid private detectives, Jack was sure that after this, the woman would definitely do even more desperate evil acts.

Anne, who was shocked to hear Jack\'s words, immediately covered her ears. His voice was really too loud for her ears at this time. As long as Anne had known Jack, this was the first time she had heard and seen Jack shouting at her so loudly like that.

After talking like that, Jack then went up to the second floor leaving Anne alone on the first floor. On the second floor, he was seen talking to several maids by occasionally looking at Anne, who was still sitting on the sofa.

"Prepare everything. Later her things will be delivered. But for now, just prepare the room first," said Jack slowly, ending his conversation with three maids.

"We understand, sir." The three maids answered in unison at Jack\'s orders.

After talking to his maids, Jack then went back down to the first floor to find Anne who was still sitting on the sofa.

"Tell me what you and Erick were talking about earlier, Jack. This must have something to do with those two mysterious men, right?" Anne immediately asked Jack with a question that had been swirling in her mind for a while.

"You don\'t need to know, the important thing is that you\'re safe now. Let me take care of the rest," Jack answered quietly without looking at Anne\'s face.

"I\'m not a little girl, Jack. I need to know what\'s going on. Hiding like this is not the way out, weren\'t you the one who often told me to face the problem directly instead of hiding like a coward?" said Anne curtly. She didn\'t like the way Jack was hiding a secret from her like that.

Jack was silent when he heard Anne\'s words. He looked at Anne without blinking. Seeing Jack\'s expression like that made Anne sure that at this moment Jack was angry with her, but Anne didn\'t care about that.

"I have to know, Jack. I have to know whether they are acting alone or being ordered by someone. At least I have to know about it, if they are acting alone what should I do and if they are being ordered by someone, what should I do? If I continue to depend on you, I don\'t know what will happen in the future. Whether you continue to be with me like this or not, I have to know it all to protect myself, Jack. At least, once I know the truth, I can be more vigilant."Anne added to her words. She wanted Jack to know that she wasn\'t as weak as he had imagined.

"If I told you who is behind all this, what would you do?" Jack asked quickly, folding his arms across his chest, curious about Anne\'s answer.

Anne was silent. She didn\'t know what to say. Since she didn\'t have any plans at the moment, her words were just a bluff to get Jack to tell her. But when asked a question like this by Jack, she looked very confused.

Jack pursed his lips at Anne\'s flustered look. He could have guessed he would see this from Anne. Two years of knowing the girl in front of him made him know what to do for her.

"Don\'t push yourself, Anne. I know you still can\'t trust people after what you\'ve been through. But believe me, I\'m different, Anne, I\'m not someone who will walk away after taking advantage of you. I\'m not a shameless bastard like Leonardo Ganke, I\'m sincere to you. How many times do I have to say this to you, Anne? And in what way are you going to believe me?" Jack tried to convince her again by saying that calming words. He knew that she still closed her heart from anyone due to the past events that she had been through. However, he felt that Anne\'s attitude was too much. She was too hypocritical to refuse his invitation to have a more serious relationship. Even though it was clear that Anne could not be independent and always depended on him.

"Steffi, is she the mastermind behind all this?" Anne immediately said a name that had been running around in her mind for a long time.

"If you know she is the mastermind behind all this, then what are you going to do, Anne? What can you do? She is Leonardo Ganke\'s legal wife at the moment, Anne. Whatever she does, she is backed by her husband, who has a lot of money. You can\'t fight her back, Anne." Jack spat out his last words again, trying to make Anne realize of her current position.

Anne smiled at Jack\'s words. She looked very calm when she found out that it was Steffi who was the mastermind behind this incident. The look of fear vanished in an instant, replaced by a beautiful smile that appeared on her calm face.

"Wasn\'t it you who used to teach me to face all this with a cool head, Jack? Then why are you doubting me now? I already have other plans for her. I want to make her destroy her own reputation with various stupid actions that she did, Jack. At least, with that I didn\'t need to openly show hostility to her, right? I provoked Steffi first, so I accept the consequences now. Besides, I have a protector that I can rely on against her, Jack," said Anne quietly and confidently.

"A protector you can rely on? What do you mean?"

"Leon, he will be my protector. He will take care of Steffi quickly without me having to intervene."Anne quickly answered Jack\'s question.

"Anne!!! What do you mean?"Jack shouted very loudly after hearing Anne\'s words calling Leon as her protector. Jack felt he was not appreciated by Anne now.

Jack\'s loud scream made everyone who heard it shocked, not only Anne, who was standing right in front of Jack.

"This is a mental battle, Jack, let me face it. And what I mean by Leon being my protector is that the real opponent of Steffi if she dares to hurt me is Leon, he is the person Steffi will fight not me," she said quietly, while trying to give an explanation to the man who was blindly jealous in front of her.
