I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Instantly, the stranger fell to his knees in front of Jack because he was not ready to get hit in the stomach.

"Jack, what are you doing!!" Anne screamed in shock. She couldn\'t believe that Jack would immediately throw a punch at the unknown man.

Jack immediately turned to Anne with a smile. "It\'s okay, babe... He\'s just... Arrghh.."

Jack couldn\'t finish his words because he immediately looked down as the man he had hit earlier hit him back. Nicholas, who saw this, immediately ran to Jack and prepared to take out the gun that he always kept at his waist.

"Nick, stop."

Nicholas, who was already pointing his gun at the man in front of his master, looked confused. He didn\'t understand why he couldn\'t take any action the man who had hit his master.

Jack quickly stood up and immediately hugged the stranger with a big smile, which made Anne, who was covering her mouth with both hands, let out a small scream as well as Nicholas, the man almost dropped the gun in his hand.

"Why didn\'t you tell me when you came back, you bastard," Jack cursed loudly as he let go of his arm.

"How should I let this esteemed Mr. Clarke know, Jack? I have no way of contacting him," the man replied with a smile.

"You bastard, oh right, let me introduce you to my wife," said Jack again as he wrapped his arms around the man\'s neck and walked over to Anne who was still covering her mouth with both hands.

Anne looked at Jack with a confused look. Jack smiled when he realized Anne\'s confusion with what had just happened. He quickly let go of his arm on the shoulders of Shane, the owner of the restaurant who was none other than one of his best friends when he was still in school. The tension on Anne\'s face disappeared when she heard her husband\'s explanation, as did Nicholas. The man immediately stowed the gun under his jacket again.

"I just came back a month ago and to be honest, I was very shocked by everything that happened to you, Jack. I didn\'t think that you still had a rich grandfather in Luxembourg, God is so unfair," said Shane with enthusiasm in response to the words Jack.

"God is unfair? Why is that?" asked Jack, his voice rising.

"Your last name, wasn\'t when you used the name Clarke you were already rich but now look at you using your grandfather\'s last name. Who doesn\'t know about the legend of the Clarke family from Luxembourg, huh? You were already rich with the name Muller and now you use the name Clarke, ah damn! All your treasures will last for more than seven generations to come," answered Shane quickly without hesitation. Shane was one of Jack\'s friends when he was still in high school, where they were on the same basketball team for three years. And Shane did have such a sloppy nature that Jack wasn\'t offended at all by the things that he said.

Jack laughed out loud at Shane\'s words. "God was fair to me, Shane. He couldn\'t bear to see me alone in this cruel world, so God brought me to my biological grandfather and gave me a very good and beautiful wife like her," Jack immediately wrapped his arms around Anne\'s waist possessively after saying that.

Anne\'s face turned red when she heard Jack\'s words. She was grateful that now the sun had completely set, or else her red face would be too obvious.

"Don\'t show off your affection in front of me, you bastard. Oh right, Anne, if I may know when is your due date?" Shane asked curiously.

"In two months," said Anne softly, touching her bulging belly.

"Your daughter must be a beautiful and smart girl like you, don\'t be like his father who is a jerk, okay?" Shane said quickly without guilt.

"Fuck you, she\'s my daughter of course, she\'ll have some of my traits," Jack snarled quickly.

Shane laughed out loud. "But she\'s a girl, Jack. Usually the father doesn\'t pass down his character to his daughter, so don\'t expect much."

"Y-you..."

"Come on, come on, stop it. Continue your debate later on. The waitresses are coming to bring my food." Anne immediately cut off Jack\'s words quickly while pointing at the four waitresses who were walking towards them.

Jack immediately smiled when he saw Anne was very excited when she saw the food were coming. He quickly gave space to the waitresses serving the food on their table. Jack wrapped his arms in front of Anne\'s stomach, protecting Anne and her daughter from unwanted things. Seeing how Jack protected his wife made Shane smile. Without Jack knowing, the man took a photo of them and sent it to the group chat for their school reunion that had been formed. In addition to the photo, Shane also wrote sweet words that praised the way Jack protected his wife.

"You\'re lucky to have Jack, Anne," Shane said in a low half-whisper to Anne as Jack was washing his hands in the sink.

"Is that true?"

"Yes, your husband is a loving person. I pray that both of you are always happy, take good care of my grumpy friend," added Shane quickly because Jack was already walking back towards them.

Anne nodded her head slowly hearing Shane\'s words. A smile also appeared on her face. Jack was right, Shane seemed like a nice guy and Anne liked him.

"What poison are you whispering to my wife, you bastard?" Jack snarled as he sat back down next to Anne.

Anne shook her head as she took Jack\'s hand. "Shane is asking me not to hesitate to criticize the chefs\' cooking, Jack. Don\'t make some random accusations."

"Is that true?"

"Of course it\'s true. Don\'t you trust your own wife?" Shane immediately responded to Jack\'s words as he grabbed the glass that was already filled with wine from the table.

Jack looked at Anne and Shane alternately, although a little unsure but finally Jack chose to start preparing food for Anne. He chose to ignore Shane who was teasing him by offering her a drink. Anne only smiled slightly at the attitude that Jack was showing at this time.

After almost all the food was on her plate, Anne began to eat. As usual, she would taste each food a little before deciding which one to eat. The way that Anne did was really very elegant and it was praised by Shane in his heart.

"Tell me, Jack, where did you find a woman as perfect as your wife? Looks like I also have to follow your way in looking for a wife," Shane said seriously. He couldn\'t hold himself but to ask Jack because he was very fascinated by the way Anne ate, which was very elegant and full of manners.

Jack chuckled. "Didn\'t you say you don\'t want to get married for the rest of your life?"

"Ah I cancel that decision. It looks like getting married is fun. Quick, answer my question, you asshole, don\'t change the subject," replied Shane curtly.

"You won\'t find a woman like my wife, because God only created one and that\'s for me. You\'d better find the woman of your dreams, you bastard. Don\'t dream that you can get a woman like my wife," said Jack quietly as he shifted his seat towards Anne,

"You damn bastard, you\'re just being stingy. Don\'t want to share information with..."

Shane stopped when he saw his cell phone suddenly received a lot of incoming messages from the group chat that Giselle made to have a reunion in the next few days.

"Damn..."

"What\'s wrong?"

"You seem to have a lot of fans from your school days, Jack," Shane replied softly with a smile.

"What does that mean? I don\'t understand?"

"Fuck! I just realized you aren\'t in that group chat," Shane shrieked loudly.

Jack raised an eyebrow. "Group chat, what group chat?"

"The group chat that Giselle Allen created, the girl that you used to protect, she made the group chat to gather all of us for a reunion," Shane answered quickly.

Cough!

Cough!

Hearing about Giselle and the reunion made Anne who was eating choked, lucky Jack immediately gave her water.

"Are you okay, Anne? Was the food bad?"

"No, I\'m fine. The food is good, but..."

"But what? Say it, Anne, don\'t worry, I can.."

"It\'s not about the food at your stupid restaurant, it\'s about Giselle Allen and her madness." Jack immediately cut Shane\'s words quickly.

Shane shook his head. He didn\'t understand what Jack was talking about. Jack, who was also annoyed, finally told Shane everything about what Giselle had done.

"Are you serious?\'

"Yes, we are," replied Anne quietly, looking at Shane who looked shocked.

"What the fuck..."
