Anne, who was willing to have lunch with Mr. David Clarke, seemed to add to the warmth of the magnificent house. Usually Mr. David was only accompanied by Luis and Noah at every meal, but this time there were Doctor Caitlyn and Anne who joined the lunch together.

"Please don't hesitate, Doc,

" said Mr. David quietly to Doctor Caitlyn as he gave a large plate of roast mutton from the best lamb towards her.

"Yes sir, I'll have another serving later. I haven't even finish my plate,

" replied Doctor Caitlyn slowly, gently refusing Mr. David Clarke's offer.

"Okay, but do have some more, Doc. It feels so nice to have so many people sitting with me at a meal like this,

" said Mr. David Clarke with a big smile..

Anne felt a little uncomfortable, because during her stay in that place, she had always refused the man's invitation to eat together, that was why she felt a little awkward at the moment, especially hearing the words that the good man had just said.

Luis, who was sitting right next to Mr. David Clarke, smiled faintly when he saw Anne was willing to have lunch. As the person who brought her to the house for the first time, he was pleased to see a slight change in Anne's attitude. She had started to talk even though she had to be provoked first. He knew very well what Anne was feeling, that was why he didn't feel angry at her, because Luis was a strict person who didn't like to see attention-seeking girls pretending to be weak, like girls who had been approaching their young master.

"Berries, you should eat a lot of fruits, Anne,

" Doctor Caitlyn said quietly as she put a few blueberries and raspberries into Anne's plate.

"Enough, Doc, I still have a lot of food,

" said Anne quickly, but her movements were still not as fast as Doctor Caitlyn, who managed to put two spoons of fruit into her plate.

"It's fruit, Anne dear, you must eat a balanced diet. Don't just eat meat like that,

" said Doctor Caitlyn softly with a wink.

"But Doc...

"

Anne's words were cut off when Doctor Caitlyn stroked her head.

"You remember our conversation at the park, don't you?

"

Anne's eyes immediately rounded perfectly when she heard the doctor's words. Her smile widened and it made Mr. David Clarke and Luis surprised because they couldn't believe that Anne could smile. Their surprise didn't end there, because now they saw Anne was eating voraciously, whereas a few minutes ago, she was just playing with her food, without actually eating.

Doctor Caitlyn nodded her head slowly towards Mr. David Clarke and Luis, giving the code to the two men, who were responded with a warm smile from Mr. David Clarke. He was glad that Doctor Caitlyn was able to gain Anne's trust. When they were enjoying their meal full of warmth, suddenly there was a commotion outside and the sound of footsteps was heard getting closer to the dining room.

Crash!

"Anne!!!

"

Anne dropped the fork in her hand accidentally when she saw clearly the figure she hated standing in front of her.

It was not only Anne who was shocked, Mr. David Clarke, Luis and Doctor Caitlyn also showed the same surprise.

"Alan,

" said Mr. David Clarke quietly as he looked at his grandson who currently looked very angry.

Bam!

With full emotion, Alan hit the marble dining table suddenly, so that suddenly the glass that was protecting the dining table cracked because of the hard blow of Alan's hand.

"Why did you lie to me? Didn't you know from the start that I was looking for Anne like a madman? Why did you just shut up and let that bastard Luis hide Anne in this house? Why did you defend him? Why did you protect Luis? I am your grandson! I should be the one you support, not this bastard Luis!

" Alan shouted madly, his eyes turned red when he spoke, Indicating how furious he was at the moment. He glared at Luis. His suspicions turned out to be true, Luis was the one who had taken Anne away from him.

"Calm down, Alan, sit down first. Everything can be discussed amicably,

" said Mr. David Clarke softly with a smile. He looked very calm facing his grandson, who was going crazy.

Alan turned his gaze to his grandfather without letting go of his explosive emotions.

"What can we talk about, Grandpa? Your bastard assistant Luis has kidnapped my woman and you're protecting him again now like yesterday. Who's your grandson actually? Am I or this bastard Luis, Grandpa?!!

"

"I didn't defend Luis as you was accused me. I just asked you to sit down first, so that we can talk properly. Don't do this, standing up angry like that, everything can be discussed properly, Alan, no need to use emotions,

" replied Mr. David Clarke back calmly. All he had to do now was calm the grandson who was furious in front of him.

Meanwhile, Anne, who was already frightened, lowered her head while playing with her fingers. Her breathing sounded heavy as if she was holding back tears.

Doctor Caitlyn, who saw Anne's change in attitude, then reached out and gripped Anne's hand gently.

"Calm down, young master will not be able to do anything. There is big master, you are safe, Anne,

" she whispered softly trying to calm Anne.

"I-I'm scared doc,

" Anne squeaked in a hoarse voice.

"You're safe, Anne, don't be afraid. Many people are protecting you here. There are Mr. David, Luis, Noah and I. The young master will not be able to touch you, you don't have to be afraid,

" Doctor Caitlyn whispered again, while patting Anne's shoulder gently in the hope that Anne would calm down.

"I didn't come here to sit down and talk, Grandpa, I came here to take my woman home again. My time to talk was over three days ago when I came and you innocently told me at that time that Luis didn't commit the accusations I gave him. You firmly said that Luis was beside you since morning. So I don't want to do that anymore. What I want to do now is bring Marianne home. She is mine, so I will take her home with me,

" said Alan firmly refusing the request of his grandfather to sit down.

"I will not repeat my request for the second time, Alan...

"

"Grandpa come on, I do this because of you. You lied to me, you said you didn't know anything. But what is this, Grandpa? Marianne, who I've been searching for like crazy, turned out to be here for the last few days with you, Grandpa. If it wasn't Luis who had forcefully take her, I'm sure Marianne wouldn't be able to get out of the villa. Why are you making this difficult for me, Grandpa? You gave me piles of new jobs all of a sudden, why are you doing that? Why do you have to do this to me? I didn't do anything wrong or disappoint you, why did you spoil my fun like this?

"

"What kind of fun do you call it, Alan? Do you call ruining someone's life fun?

" Anne, who had been gathering her strength for a while, was finally able to speak loudly now, responding to Alan's words. Her beautiful teary eyes stared at Alan with a look of hatred.
