Chapter 629 - The Interview

< United Nations Office at Geneva, UNOG >

Chester Lloyd, who had just been elected as the new secretary general of the UN, was still based in Geneva. He had not yet moved to New York, which was the most important location and the main place for the United Nations to convene. That was because he still had to take care of some personal problems related to the death of his wife, and his only daughter who couldn't be brought to America, because Chester's parents didn't allow their granddaughter to be taken away. So like it or not, for the past few months, Chester was still based in Geneva.

While Chester was busy checking important files in the room, he was suddenly surprised by the arrival of his personal assistant who came in a hurry.

"What's wrong, Michael?

" Chester asked a little displeased when he saw his assistant come without knocking on his door.

"The TV, please see channel 8, sir,

" Michael replied stuttering.

Without speaking, Chester turned on the television which had been off for a long time and immediately looked for the channel his assistant had mentioned. Chester's eyes instantly widened when he saw the news that appeared in front of him. Currently at Findel Airport, Luxembourg, a large interview was being conducted by dozens of journalists who came to the airport. The reporters were interviewing Jack and Anne who had just landed. Anne looked very elegant and beautiful in harmony with Jack who was always neat in his formal clothes.

The reporters bombarded Jack and Anne with dozens of questions that alternated, starting from their married life, to Christian, who became the heir to the Clarke family. The previous day, the reporters had been shocked by Luis Cobb's statement that suddenly appeared in public with the Clarke family's lawyer telling everyone that the Clarke family had a new heir after Jackson Knight Clarke. At the press conference, Luis also officially introduced Christian to everyone. Christian who already had the last name Clarke was introduced as Christian Cyril Clarke. Luis deliberately put the name Cyril as Christian's middle name because it was a name that was very liked by the late Mr. David Clarke, which he deliberately prepared for his great-grandchildren in the future, but had not succeeded in realizing his dream of giving the name Cyril to his great-grandson, Mr. David Clarke had died first.

Cyril had a great meaning and Mr. David Clarke really liked the name. That was why Luis assigned his master's name to Christian which Jack agreed to as Christian's father.

"Do you wish to have another child soon, sir? If so, how many children would you like to have?

"

"What is the reason you are only showing your son in public at this time, sir?

"

"Some say that your relationship with your wife is not harmonious, how do you respond to comments like that, sir?

"

"Seeing the intimacy between you and your wife makes many people jealous, how do you continue to maintain a relationship like this, sir?

"

"Which country did you choose as a place to raise your child, sir?

"

Jack and Anne smiled when they heard the similar questions, but from the dozens of questions asked by reporters, Jack chose the five most plausible questions to answer.

"The reason why I just introduced my son to all of you is because I want him to have a happy childhood, without being chased by reporters or people who want to know the face of the heir to the Clarke family. I want my son to grow up like other children who don't come from a family that is highlighted like ours, and if someone asks if I want to have how many children, of course I will answer as much as my wife can give birth. But because I'm not that selfish then I might only ask for 6 children from her,

" said Jack slowly, answering the two important questions from the reporters he had memorized.

"But that was before Christian was born, because I was afraid that my wife would be exhausted if she gave birth to that many children, then maybe I will only ask for three children from my beautiful wife. If you see our intimacy like this, do I have to answer again about the rumors circulating?? Of course not. So if there is a rumor that says that our relationship is not harmonious, you just ignore it as it is definitely a hoax, because our relationship is very good and harmonious. And as for where to raise Christian, to be honest, my wife and I haven't decided, because we have three places historic for us, but right now maybe Christian will stay in Luxembourg for a while with Luis Cobb, our family caretaker. While my wife and I will commute like this from Switzerland to Luxembourg to see him. Anyways, how can we give Christian a sister if we take care of him ourselves. Really, my son is very extraordinary, his curiosity is great. Likewise with his active behavior, that's why I entrusted Luis to take care of Christian for a while. Honestly, I'm still confused about answering my son's questions who always ask how babies can be formed, there's no way I can explain to him how he got in his mother's stomach. Just imagine, all this time Christian always said that the baby was eaten by his mother. Then how do I explain it then? That's why I trusted Luis to take care of our son.

"

Jack's last words made everyone in the place laugh, some of them even praising Christian's intelligence. While others actually started giving Jack various suggestions to answer questions his son was asking.

"I think that's all for these questions that I can answer for now, if there's some other time on other occasions, I would certainly be happy to answer the questions that you ask. Once again, sorry and thank you for all the prayers and greetings you have given to our family, thank you again and see you at another opportunity,

" said Jack slowly closing the impromptu Q&A session before he finally resumed his steps with Anne who had been showing off her beautiful smile, Anne really became the spotlight this time.

Her make-up, hairdo, and clothes were very fitting and perfect. It turned out that Jack's choice of recruiting the two makeup artists was not in vain because Anne looked extraordinary.

Dozens of journalists were still chasing them. Jack and Anne until they got into the car, Anne's beauty made the reporters kept taking her picture. Even though it was certain that they had obtained hundreds of photos of Anne from various sides.

Bang!

Chester hit his desk unconsciously, his teeth even rattled from clashing. Chester was so angry when he saw all the interviews that Jack had just done at Findel Airport, Luxembourg. Chester was convinced that Jack did that on purpose, Chester believed Jack did it to show how much power he had over Anne and it honestly bothered Chester.

"Master…

"

Chester clenched his fists again.

"Looks like this guy was provoking me on purpose, Mike,

" Chester growled angrily.
