Chapter 533 - Stronger
Again, Anne woke up with a very heavy head, and just like yesterday Jack was not there beside her when she woke up. Anne slowly touched her belly, there was already three weeks of life in it. It was a great joy.
"Thank you for this trust, God,
" said Anne in her heart as she gently touched her stomach.
Exactly three weeks ago, Jack managed to remember who he really was and Anne had asked God to get pregnant when Jack already knew who he was. That was why when she found out that the baby in her stomach was three weeks old, Anne immediately went speechless. God had immediately granted what she asked for from the start after knowing that Alan was Jack.
Because she did not want to linger in bed, Anne then decided to immediately clean her body in the bathroom before taking some vitamins given by the doctor who she met yesterday. While standing in front of the mirror in the room, she looked at her naked body for a long time. Her smile widened when she looked at her still flat stomach.
"In two weeks, Mommy's tummy won't be this flat, honey. Be healthy inside Mommy, okay? We'll meet in 9 months. I love you, babies ... I love you so much.
"
Accompanied with the notes of a song from Mozart, Anne soaked for a long time in the bathtub. She was really relaxed, especially with the lavender scent from the aromatherapy candles filling the bathroom. Instantly, the headache that had been attacking her for a while disappeared.

< Clarke Enterprise >
Because the merger process from Clarke Enterprise to Muller Finance International took a long time, Jack had to work even harder. He decided to merge the two companies into one. Although Muller Finance International and Clarke Enterprise were different in their fields, that did not change his intention to unite the two large companies, because for Jack, the two companies were equally important to him.
"After Mr. Kevin Cormier releases his shares, then we can go straight in and really own Muller Finance International completely, sir,
" Erick said quietly without taking his attention from the laptop in front of him.
Jack smiled.
"Keep monitoring, Erick, don't miss anything. Remember, I don't want any mistakes. I must have Muller Finance International as a whole as before, so that I have full control over the company. I have to unite the two companies owned by my father and grandfather. By merging Muller Finance International into Clarke Enterprise, malicious people will no longer be able to try to undermine Muller Finance International, which already has a large holding company in Luxembourg.
"
"Yes, you are right, sir. With this, in the future, Muller Finance International's position as a funding company will be even more solid and reliable. Our clients will also definitely look to the head office first, sir.
" Nicholas, who had been silent for a long time, finally joined in.
The smile on Jack's face grew even wider after hearing Nicholas' words.
"That's what I want, Nick. With the inclusion of Clarke Enterprise shares into Muller Finance International, it will make Muller Finance International stronger. 80% of the shares in Muller Finance International will be mine again.
"
"But why don't you buy all of Mr. Kevin Cormier's shares, sir? Doesn't that mean you have full power if you own 90% of the shares in Muller Finance International?
" Nicholas asked curiously.
Jack chuckled then turned his seat to face the large window with bulletproof glass behind it.
"I still want to maintain a good relationship with Mr. Kevin Cormier, Nick. Even though he wanted to sell all of his shares to me, but I didn't accept it, because if I bought all of Mr Kevin Cormier's shares, then he would no longer be in touch with Muller Finance International. He still owns 10% stake in Muller Finance International so our relationship will still continue, although we rarely meet. That's why I chose to leave his 10% stake in order for him to stay in Muller Finance International.
"
Nicholas nodded his head repeatedly in response to his master's words, what his master said was very reasonable. The process of buying Kevin Cormier's shares was successful and with that, Jack officially returned to own the company founded by his parents, now the other shareholders wouldn't be able to bother him anymore like that time. Owning an 80% shares in Muller Finance International made his name even stronger. After Mr. Kevin Cormier finished with all the processes in Switzerland, Jack's name immediately skyrocketed to the top of the stock trading table today in Geneva, Switzerland.
Immediately, the media in Switzerland was excited, they were very surprised to find out that Muller Finance International had become part of the Clarke Enterprise. Because the merger process that Jack did was not announced to the public, only a few parties knew. Actually, this merger process had been discussed by several other entrepreneurs. Some of them have mentioned that a Jackson Knight Clarke would soon take over Muller Finance International and became part of Clarke Enterprise. Although at that time not many people believed that it would happen, several businessmen who had worked with Jack were very sure that the merger of the two large companies would happen and it turned out that what they predicted was true, Muller Finance International was now in full control of Jackson Knight Clarke and it entered into the business empire owned by the Clarke family which was very strong in the Schengen areas.
"Yes! We did it!
"
"Finally, Muller Finance International returned to its rightful owner.
"
"Ahhh the joy!!
"
Nicholas, Erick, and Alice cheered with joy when what they had done worked. Muller Finance International had now truly established itself at the top of the largest finance-based company in Europe. With the big name Clarke Enterprise behind it, there would no longer be a similar funding company that could compete with Muller Finance International.
"Okay, to celebrate our success, I want to treat you all to a meal first, please choose which restaurant you want for lunch this time,
" Jack said quietly with a smile.
Jack's words were immediately greeted with cheers by his three assistants and several managers who were in the Clarke Enterprise main meeting room, which was on the top floor right next to Jack's room. After sorting out the best restaurant in town, their choice finally fell to a Chinese restaurant which was quite large and could accommodate about 30 staff members who were invited to have lunch together.
Because Jack was too happy, he had not had time to check the incoming email, even though a few moments ago there was an incoming email from the same sender, with contents almost the same as the first and second emails. Jack immediately put his cell phone into his pocket without checking his cell phone first, even though now Anne had also sent him a message. Anne was at a mall to buy ingredients to make Käsekuchen. Käsekuchen was a typical German cheesecake with a very soft cheese texture and taste. Different from other cheesecakes made from cream cheese dough, Käsekuchen's main ingredient consisted of quark, which was a soft white cheese that had a slightly sour taste. Because at home the ingredients for making Käsekuchen were not complete, Anne finally chose to go shopping with Luis, who was her personal driver. Anne was still traumatized and afraid that the incident like yesterday would happen again. Moreover, the car that she used yesterday was not yet found.
