Chapter 577 - The Big Master's Message
"My coming to the office is causing trouble, huh?"
Anne again asked the same question to Jack, who was enjoying his lunch at a luxury restaurant that Erick had booked for the next two hours, so that they wouldn't be disturb by strangers at that place.
"Jack..."
Jack turned and smiled sweetly at Anne, so sweet it made Anne suspicious.
"Eat your food first, then we can talk."
Damn!
Anne was speechless. Jack was right because since the food came, Anne had not touched her food. Everyone, including Christian, had enjoyed the delicious food prepared by the best chef in the ten-star Michelin Star restaurant.
As Jack continued to stare at her without blinking, Anne finally gave in. She then touched her fork and knife and began to enjoy the truly delicious food. Jack's taste was really, really terrible.
"Jack..."
"Try this." Jack immediately handed a piece of processed goose liver to Anne who was just about to call her name.
Anne who really wanted to talk finally gave in and enjoyed the food that was now in her mouth.
"Is it good?" Jack asked curiously.
"Yes."
"Good, fine then. So I won't think twice about recruiting this chef to work in our house."
Anne almost choked if she didn't cover her mouth immediately with the napkin that was on her lap. She didn't expect Jack to hire a chef with a salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars at home.
"Jack, come on. Don't overdo it like this. You don't need to hire a chef like that. After all, there is already a chef at home. Do you really have the heart to replace him like this?"
Jack smiled. "I fired the main chef at home a week ago, before I left for Aberdeen to pick you up and Christian."
"Then the cook in the house?"
"He's just an assistant chef, so I need a master chef."
Anne massaged her sore forehead. Talking to Jack would ruin her common sense. Jack's standards were really hard for ordinary people to follow.
"Right now you and Christian are at home, the food you eat must be the best of the best. That's why I don't want to look for an ordinary chef, especially for Christian. He needs the best nutrition for his development, so I don't want to randomly look for a chef. You two are my priority right now. It doesn't matter how much I have to pay for a chef, as long as the food he makes is guaranteed clean and healthy for my wife and son. It's okay for me to spend a little money," said Jack quietly, while wiping his lips with a napkin, explaining his reason for recruiting a professional chef at Anne.
"But Jack, Christian has been fine so far. All the food I gave him while he was in Scotland didn't get him into any trouble, so you don't have to overdo it. Because trust me, without hiring a chef like that I can still prepare Christian's food for him."
Jack glared at Anne. "And I won't allow that to happen."
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"As long as you stay at home with me, I won't let you touch the kitchen again, let alone just to prepare food for Christian. Your job at home is just to wait for me to come home and watch the maids do their work. About Christian, you don't have to worry, a new nanny will take care of him," replied Jack snapped.
"A new nanny? But don't you already have a nanny from Aberdeen who..."
"Ah, that lady, I fired her."
"What? What is it now, Jack?" cried Anne in disbelief.
Jack grabbed two grapes from the plate and ate them all at once. "I don't like her, her eyes are glaring at the things I gave you. I don't like having a careless nanny like that. It's possible that she might steal one of your things."
"Jesus, Jack! You're exaggerating. How many more people are you going to fire?"
Jack chuckled. "As much as I want, as long as they try to harm my wife and son, then I will act decisively."
Hearing Jack's last words made Anne realize that she could never win an argument with her husband. From the start, Jack really wanted to make her a princess who couldn't do anything at home. Because Anne had only eaten a few pieces of meat, Jack finally took the initiative to feed her. The man patiently cut the meat and gave it to Anne. He didn't care what other people think of him. The most important thing right now was that Anne ate well. All of her nutrition must be maintained properly. There were many things that Jack wanted to do with Anne and that could only be done when Anne was in good health.
From his seat, Luis smiled at the intimacy that Jack did to Anne. He was happy to see his master back with the woman he loved.
"Do you intend to stay in Switzerland, Luis?" Nicholas asked quietly.
"There is no plan yet, but let's see in the future. I have to take care of the late master's house, besides that I also have other tasks that are no less important," Luis answered flatly.
Erick, who had just wiped Christian's lips which were stained with ice cream, was interested in Luis and Nicholas' conversation. "Is there anything else that you got from the late Master, Luis?"
Louis smiled. "Making sure Madam is well. Mrs. Anne has already given one successor to this family. So I must take good care of her, her safety is my top priority right now, besides young master."
"The safety of Madam and young master, then what about Mr. Jack's?" asked Erick in confusion.
Louis smiled. "Madam is the weakest person in the house, if Mr. Jack hurt her, I'm sure both of you would be quiet. Considering that you two are Mr. Jack's most loyal subordinates, as happened that night three years ago. You were silent when Master hurt Madam, right?"
Checkmate!
Erick and Nicholas' faces turned pale as soon as they heard Luis' words. Neither of them expected Luis to speak like that. Because what Luis said was true, at that time, neither Erick nor Nicholas could stop Jack, who was filled with mad jealousy, from hurting Anne.
"Don't worry. I won't bring up the past, because now they are together again. Moreover Madam has also forgiven Master. So there's no reason for me to discuss it again. But at least, it serves as a reminder to me that no one will protect Madam other than me. And what I am doing is the request of the late Master who wants me to look after Mrs. Anne, which is why I am still contemplating whether to stay in Luxembourg or in Switzerland." Luis again added his explanation to Erick and Nicholas, who were currently silent.
While Erick and Nicholas were speechless, Christian continued to laugh. The baby was focused on the television screen that showed the Korean Tayo cartoon series.
