I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Anne didn't say anything. She was still trying to calm herself after getting a kiss from Jack. Meanwhile, Jack, who was annoyed with the existence of the CCTV, still folded his arms across his chest, standing right in front of the elevator door which was still closed. He was planning to complain to Doctor Pierre about the CCTV in the elevator. The two of them were still silent until finally the elevator stopped on the 12th floor, which was the floor where Linda and Paul were taken. Without a word, the two of them got out of the elevator and rushed to the room with blue curtains which had just been closed by a nurse. When they were almost in front of the VIP room, Anne suddenly touched Jack's hand, causing Jack to stop in his tracks.

"What's wrong?" he asked coldly. Jack was still annoyed by what had happened in the elevator.

"Earlier, what just happened in the elevator, that's okay, right, Jack?" Anne asked carefully. She knew that Jack was angry. So she spoke in a soft voice.

"Of course it's okay. After all, it was just a simple kiss. And everyone can do it wherever they want," replied Jack curtly, being reminded again about the existence of the CCTV made Jack's emotions rise again. 

After saying that, Jack then turned his body back and continued his steps, entering the room where the names of Linda and Paul were clearly visible in the VIP room. 

"What kiss? You kissed me so rough and painfully, Jack." Anne spoke to herself, her hand touched her slightly swollen lips. Although Jack only kissed her briefly, but because of his skill and experience which was far more than Anne's, he easily left a little work on Anne's thin lips which now look unbalanced because her lower lip now was swollen. 

Anne finally went into Linda and Paul's treatment room. She didn't want to miss the slightest info while all the time hoping that no one would notice the condition of her lips at the moment. 

"This lady suffered bruising from being hit by a blunt object in several places. Fortunately you brought her here immediately, sir. So we will carry out a more in-depth examination, while this male patient has a stab wound that has been stitched up and there is nothing to worry about. I will ask the nurse to carry out routine checks." Doctor Pierre explained to Jack at length, and Anne, who had just entered, could hear everything the doctor said to Jack. 

Seeing that there was a nurse who wanted to change Linda's clothes that she was currently wearing, Anne acted quickly. She went straight to Linda's bed and closed the curtain tightly so that the men in the room did not see Linda's whole body. As soon as all the curtains were closed tightly, the nurse began to take off Linda's clothes and jeans, leaving Linda's panties and matching bra. Anne's eyes stared sadly when she saw that there were several bruises around Linda's stomach and thighs that were clearly visible.

"I'm fine, Anne, don't cry." Linda immediately spoke in a barely audible voice when she saw Anne's eyes were filled with tears. 

Anne immediately wiped the tears that had not yet come out of her beautiful eyes. "Yeah, you're fine, you're so good you didn't know you were hurt too. Stupid Belinda, you idiot, sob.." 

"Anne..."

Suddenly the curtain that was closed was opened from the outside and a strong hand came in and pulled Anne's body out of the curtain which made everyone shocked, including Anne herself. The owner of the hand was none other than Jack, who then hugged Anne tightly as soon as Anne came out of the curtain that surrounded Linda's bed.

"Jack..."

"Don't cry in front of patients, you will give them negative energy." Jack spoke without pause while looking at Anne, who was also looking at him. 

Anne immediately wiped her tears and tried to smile, but her eyes that were still sad could not deceive anyone who saw her. Jack just smiled faintly when he saw what Anne was doing. He then took Anne out of the VIP room, leaving Linda and Paul who would get some explanations from Doctor Pierre. 

When they were outside the room, Jack then led Anne to sit in a comfortable chair. He then knelt in front of Anne and began to move his hand to touch Anne's face which was still damp from the occasional tears that still rolled down. 

"What a crybaby, you're not a little child, Anne. Hide your tears, don't pour them out so easily," said Jack quietly when he finished wiping away the remaining tears left on Anne's beautiful face.

Anne looked at Jack with still wet eyes. "I'm not a crybaby, I just cry every now and then."

"Really? I can't believe it. Do I need to remind you how many times you cried like this back when we were at Newcastle Upon Tyne, Anne?"

"Jack!!!!" Anne screamed loudly. 

Jack laughed out loud. He was happy to tease Anne and made Anne stop crying. Slowly, Jack got up from the floor and sat beside Anne. He leaned his body against the back of the chair while putting both his hands behind his head as a cushion staring at the door to Linda and Paul's treatment room.

"Dr. Pierre is asking the lovers to tell him what had happened to them earlier at the moment and is going to give me the recorded evidence of their confession to hand over to the police. He is doing that on purpose to maximize their time off. Because Doctor Pierre is a doctor who hates seeing his patient is constantly being visited by the police for questioning, so he took the initiative to conduct a brief interview with the two of them," said Jack, quietly telling Anne what was going on in Linda and Paul's treatment room.

Anne immediately looked back at Jack, who was smiling. "Really? Will the criminals be caught after this?"

"I hope so, but what is more important is their current recovery."

Anne nodded her head many times, she agreed with Jack's words. In a pose like that, Anne looked very adorable and it made Jack even more uneasy. When he wanted to continue what he started earlier in the elevator, Jack suddenly remembered an important thing he wanted to ask Anne from the start. With a little roughness, Jack took Anne's hand where he had put the ring yesterday and gripped it tightly. 

"The ring, where is the ring? Are you ashamed to show your status to everyone, Anne? Do you want people not to know that you are mine now? Or do you dislike the ring so you don't want to wear it?" Jack asked Anne barrage of questions, his eyes were gleaming with intense anger. 

Anne took a deep breath. She didn't expect Jack to ask about the ring at a time like this. 

"Let go of my hand, Jack," said Anne calmly.

Jack's brows immediately knitted at Anne's words. "What does the hand have to do with the ring?"

"Don't you want to know where the ring is? So I need my hand to move freely so I can show you where it is." 

Without being asked twice, Jack then let go of Anne's hand hesitantly. His body immediately sat up swiftly trying to dominate Anne, so that she could not escape from his question. While watching Anne without blinking, Jack was suddenly startled by the movement of Anne's hand that was aimed at her chest. At first, he tried to calm down when Anne was still touching the top of the shirt she was wearing, but his heart started beating fast when Anne started to unbutton the top button of the shirt. With a swift movement, Jack restrained Anne's hands from moving further, he even used his body to push Anne against the back of the chair. 

"Are you crazy, Anne?!! Do you want to show your body to everyone? Have you forgotten that all parts of your body are mine now?!"
