Chapter 737 – Jack’s Belonging

After the General Manager left them, Jack immediately took a chair and sat next to Anne, whose cheeks were now blushing red which made her look even more beautiful, making Jack hungry and wanting to eat her right now. It had been almost a week since Jack didn’t touch her, because of the damn period that interfered with their night activities.

“If you don’t feel comfortable in this restaurant, we can find another restaurant, babe,” said Jack flatly with his fingers already entrenched in Anne’s slender waist. Jack seemed to be showing everyone that Anne was his.

A waiter standing beside their table smiled at Jack’s words.

“I’m choosing the food now, Jack, and first take your hand off my waist.”

Jack smirked. “Never. After all, this is where my real hand lies.”

Anne took a deep breath. She slowly handed the menu book she was holding to Erick and Alice, who had been silent for a long time seeing how possessive Jack was of her. “You choose, I’ll eat whatever menu you choose,” she said softly as she leaned back in her chair, letting Jack control her body perfectly.

Damn, once again the male servant, who had been standing by, smiled because of Anne’s words and this time Jack vowed to remember the little servant’s face.

Erick smiled and grabbed the menu book in front of him. He then started talking and ordered a menu that was very foreign to Anne’s ears. But strangely, from all the food names that Erick mentioned, none of them were interrupted by Jack. It seemed that Jack agreed with all of Erick’s menu choices.

“Yes sir, please wait. We will prepare your order, excuse me.”

Erick and Alice nodded their heads simultaneously in response to the waiter’s words, while Anne and Jack remained silent. The two of them seemed to be fighting through their eyes.

It didn’t take long for all the food that Erick ordered to arrive. A variety of delicious food items were already available on the table. Anne and Jack’s food menu was the same in the form of the best beef slices from Japan doused with fresh lemon sauce, combined with a fresh chicken carrot salad, that immediately made Anne salivating. While Alice ordered toasted sesame ginger salmon which smelled very appetizing, which made Erick envious and regretted his choice of just ordering a regular beef steak.

After the waiter finished serving their orders on the table, they began to enjoy the food that was served. Jack enjoyed his food with one hand because he still stubbornly refused to let go of Anne’s waist.

Anne herself, who was already focused on her food, ignored Jack. This time she praised Erick as high as the sky for being able to order extraordinarily delicious dishes. Anne was really enjoying her food right now. She even went back to ordering an extra large lemon wedge from the waiter and took a bite without feeling the sourness at all.

“Anne.”

“Madam.”

Erick and Alice’s voices sounded simultaneously commenting on what Anne was doing right now, biting on a lemon wedge which still had a little water left after she squeezed it on top of the finest beef slice.

“What’s wrong?” asked Anne quietly without guilt.

Alice swallowed her saliva quickly. “Isn’t it sour?”

“What?”

“Those lemons.”

Anne shook her head quickly. “No, you want to try?”

In unison, Alice and Erick shook their heads quickly. “No, thank you.”

Anne chuckled. She then grabbed the second lemon wedge and again squeezed it firmly over the half of the meatloaf and chicken salad. After the two slices of lemon were finished, Anne continued to enjoy the meat voraciously. It was a new way of eating that Erick and Alice had never imagined. While Jack could only smile in amusement at the horror in Erick and Alice’s eyes as they watched his wife’s way of eating. Without a word, Jack then moved the slices of meat on his plate to Anne’s plate, which was almost empty.

“Jack…”

“It’s okay, it’s yours. Watching you eat makes me full,” said Jack quietly cutting her words.

Anne’s beautiful eyes rounded perfectly. “Are you serious?”

“Sure, eat them.”

Anne then devoured Jack’s meat that had moved onto her plate. Since Erick had ordered the food with fresh lemon sauce, Jack had agreed. He was sure that Anne would like it, that’s why he didn’t protest or interrupt what Erick had said earlier. Seeing how Anne was eating made Erick and Alice lose their appetite. They just messed up the food without actually eating them. Only a slightly crazy person would eat their meat with lemon so sour unless…

Erick and Alice’s faces stiffened. The two looked at each other for a while before finally glaring at Jack.

“Whatever is on your mind right now, you better get rid of it, because my wife is having her period right now.” Suddenly, Jack spoke as if he understood what was in the mind of his secretary and best assistant with a mischievous smile on his face.

“S-sorry sir, I didn’t mean to…”

“I know, you better finish your food, Erick. Don’t you know how much the cows sacrificed to get big and healthy so you can enjoy their meat?”

The sarcastic tone of command then made Erick and Alice grab their forks and knives again to continue eating without daring to argue. Seeing Erick and Alice eating immediately made Anne chuckle. Jack was really the incarnation of the Devil who could not be denied.

After spending thirty minutes at the restaurant, Jack then took Anne and the others away, of course after he had settled all their food using one of his magic cards, an unlimited black card with his name clearly engraved on the bottom.

“Jackson Knight Clarke.” Philippe August, who had been staring at Jack because he was annoyed with him after Jack’s sarcastic comment earlier, let out a small scream from behind the counter after seeing Jack’s black card that the waiter had brought.

“Why? Do you know him, sir?” asked the waiter and the cashier at the same time.

Phillipe August’s face stiffened. “There’s no one who doesn’t know him in fancy restaurants like ours. He’s one of the most influential businessmen in all of Europe, the sole heir to two influential families in Switzerland and Luxembourg.”

Both the waiter and the cashier opened their mouths wide. They didn’t understand what their General Manager was talking about.

“Never mind, it’s not important. What is clear is that the man is the richest and most dangerous man, so watch your attitude,” said Philippe August again hoarsely as if he was talking to himself.

The waiter and the cashier nodded their heads slowly. Both of them continued to focus on their work, swiping Jack’s black card carefully.

From where he was sitting Jack could see the previously impudent General Manager’s face turning pale. His plan of revenge had worked. Who dared to take Anne to the CCTV room without asking for his permission? Ever since the food came, this was the time that Jack had been waiting for, cornering people after finding out who he really was.

When the waiter came back to return the card, Jack took out four 100 USD bills and gave them to the waiter as a tip, a very large nominal for a tip. Even the waiter was frozen in disbelief. The tip he had just received was the largest amount he had received during his career as a waiter.

“Give my greetings to your General Manager, tell him to study good etiquette again before serving guests,” Jack said softly to the waiter as he got up from his chair. Jack was sure the General Manager, who he thought was presumptuous, must have heard his voice because Jack had deliberately raised his voice in hopes that the Frenchman would hear him.

It was Jack’s elegant and lethal revenge for a man who dared to seek an opportunity to harass his woman, his precious possession.
