Chapter 378 - A Clue
Since the arrival of Doctor Caitlyn, Anne's condition had greatly improved. She was no longer afraid and could communicate well. Although she was still picky about the people she wanted to talk to, this was a great improvement than before.
"Young master is a young man who is the dream of many women, Anne. Apart from being a Clarke, his face is also very handsome. So it's no wonder many women are queuing up to be close to him,
" said Doctor Caitlyn quietly telling Anne about Alan.
"Monster, to me he is a monster.
"
Doctor Caitlyn, who was combing Anne's hair, smiled. She knew that Anne still hated Alan. And Doctor Caitlyn understood that very well. Not long after that, the doctor tied Anne's long hair which she had tied into a ponytail.
Meanwhile, Anne was silent and resigned herself to staring at Doctor Caitlyn without blinking from the mirror in front of her.
"Oh yeah, does your vagina still hurt?
" asked Doctor Caitlyn suddenly.
Blush!
Anne's face turned red when she heard such a vulgar question. Rven though she was a doctor, Caitlyn was a woman, but it was still a taboo for Anne.
"Why? Does it still hurt? Then let me check ...
"
"No, no, Doc. I'm fine,
" Anne shrieked frantically as she held the skirt she was wearing so Doctor Caitlyn wouldn't open it.
Seeing Anne's attitude, Doctor Caitlyn was amused and smiled.
"Why should you be ashamed? I am also a woman like you, Anne.
"
"You're a doctor, you're used to seeing things like that. Besides, I'm on my period, aren't you disgusted at seeing dirty blood like that?
"
Doctor Caitlyn patted Anne's shoulders and smiled into the mirror where Anne was also looking at her through the reflection of the glass.
"Blood is a common thing for us doctors, Anne, so it's no big deal and how many days have you had your period?
"
"I have my period one day after that incident, because it was the date,
" answered Anne slowly, lowering her face.
"Let's go to the park. Being in the room for three days must be boring, right? You need some fresh air,
" said Doctor Caitlyn, changing the subject, taking Anne outside.
"Go out? But what if he...
"
"Don't worry. Young master won't be able to enter this area of the house. Mr. David will guarantee that, Anne,
" said Doctor Caitlyn, cutting Anne's words.
Anne was silent. She did not give any response. For her, as long as she was still in this house, her safety was not guaranteed. Therefore, even though Mr. David had assured her many times that Alan would not be able to approach her again, Anne was still restless. Because there was no response from Anne, Doctor Caitlyn finally took a stand.
"I think your silence means yes, so let's go out. We have to enjoy this beautiful morning sun, Anne,
" said the doctor again excitedly as she grabbed Anne's hand to get out of the room immediately.
Anne, who could not refuse Doctor Caitlyn's request, finally gave in. The two of them then went out to the back garden to enjoy the morning air. When they arrived at the garden, Doctor Caitlyn invited Anne to chat, discussing many things with enthusiasm. She hoped that Anne would forget what had happened to her and would consider Mr. David Clarke's request to marry Alan.
"Amazing, isn't it? You must be very happy if you go to that place, Anne. Later you and the young master can explore the city of Clervaux and explore its castles,
" said Doctor Caitlyn quietly as she ended her story while they were discussing the beauty of the cities in Luxembourg.
Anne looked at Doctor Caitlyn with sad eyes.
"I want to go home. I want to go back to England and live a normal life there with my college friends, Doc. I don't want to marry Alan, I'm not asking him to marry me, Doc. I don't want to.
"
"Anne...
"
"How can I live happily with a man who has raped me, Doc? I can't even imagine it. So please help me, help me talk to Mr. David to let me go. I promise I won't tell this to anyone, so the good name of this family will be maintained,
" added Anne again adding her previous words.
Doctor Caitlyn took a deep breath. Her three days of effort had been in vain. Because Anne insisted on her initial decision to return to England, the middle-aged doctor slowly wiped the tears that were running down Anne's face gently.
"Do you hate that young master?
" Doctor Caitlyn asked quietly.
"I-I just don't want to see him again, Doc, I don't want to meet that bad person ... I don't want to,
" answered Anne, stammering, her eyes were filled with tears that were ready to fall down her beautiful face that looked thinner.
Doctor Caitlyn shook her head. She stopped Anne not to cry anymore.
With motherly love, she grabbed Anne and held her gently in her arms.
"I can't promise you much, Anne, but I'll try to talk to the old master. I hope he grants your wish, dear, but I can't promise anything, Anne. So don't get your hopes up too high, okay?
"
Anne nodded her head excitedly. Hearing Doctor Caitlyn's words made Anne very happy. After four days of feeling that her life was empty, this was the first time that Anne was excited again. Her hope to be able to live a normal life with Linda and her other friends had returned. Anne was so happy that she hugged Doctor Caitlyn tightly.

Meanwhile, Alan, who was busy with his work, had just been able to relax after meeting for almost two hours since morning. He didn't understand why he had so much work for the past few days. Not to mention the women who constantly contact him almost simultaneously.
Crash!
Alan's smart phone rang loudly as it hit a hard wall.
"Find a new cell phone for me, I'm so fed up with those women,
" said Alan full of emotion. He had run out of patience after Cassandra Lim and Andriana contacted him alternately throughout the meeting. As a result, he was forced to turn off his cell phone, when in fact he had to use the cell phone to record important things during the meeting.
"Yes sir,
" Nicholas answered quickly.
Alan's jaw clenched so hard that his teeth clacked against each other.
"Any development, Nick?
"
"No sir, Luis didn't do anything suspicious. He still faithfully accompanies the big master at home, serving him as usual. Only occasionally is he seen beside his car to just clean or heat the car, the rest he is still busy with his main work. Friends Miss Anne's friends still have four days left in Luxembourg, after which they will return to London. And there is one thing that seems a bit strange to me, sir,
" Nicholas answered seriously.
"What's that?
"
"Doctor, during the past three days a lot of doctors have come to see Mr. Grandmaster. Even though they usually come once a week, but for three days in a row they keep coming especially Dr. Caitlyn...
"
"Let me explain Nick, tell me in more detail,
" Alan said quickly cutting Nicholas off.
Nicholas also began to explain from the beginning what he knew based on the reports of his subordinates, as long as Nicholas spoke Alan did not take his eyes off his assistant at all. When Nicholas had finished speaking Alan suddenly got up from his seat suddenly.
"Let's go home Nick,
" Alan said excitedly.
"But you still have an appointment for another meeting in a moment, sir,
" Nicholas replied in surprise.
Alan, who had stood up and put on his coat, immediately turned to Nicholas.
"Nothing is more important to me than getting my woman home, Nick.
"
