Chapter 647 - The Mysterious Woman
After five minutes outside, Luis finally got back into the car to report what happened to Jack.
"How is it, Luis?
" Jack asked impatiently as Luis got back into the car.
"Just the wrong address, sir. She thinks this mansion is the mansion of one of her relatives,
" said Luis quickly.
"Really? But why did that person look like she was waiting for us earlier?
" Anne, who was curious, also asked.
Luis smiled at Anne and started to tell her what had happened a moment ago. While Luis was talking, Anne seemed to be nodding her head repeatedly. Since the last incident in Luxembourg two months ago, Anne had become very afraid of meeting strangers, especially when she was seven months pregnant. Anne was afraid that something undesirable would happen to the baby whose presence was highly anticipated.
"Thank God it's just a person looking for an address,
" said Anne gratefully.
Jack smiled and stroked Anne's hair gently.
"Believe me I won't let anything bad happen again, so you don't have to be afraid. What happened in Luxembourg two months ago won't happen again, I promise.
"
"Hmm, I trust you, Daddy.
"
Jack took Anne's hand and kissed it gently. After all the members of the Warriors got into the car, the gate was finally opened. One by one, the luxury cars entered the courtyard of the mansion. When they entered the mansion area, Anne opened the window beside her. She breathed the fresh air around her house which she had left since six months ago, even though she had often made video calls with Alice, Anne still missed the girl. At least Alice's presence made Anne a little comforted and forgot the sadness over what happened to Linda. Linda finally managed to get pregnant after a long and tedious process, but at the age of two months she had to be willing to lose her baby because it turned out that the baby was not growing perfectly in her womb. It was a sad news that finally made Jack decide to bring Anne back to Luxembourg, even though the operation to remove the fetus that happened to Linda was not Linda's fault, but still Linda was very sad, and so was Paul, and it had a big impact on Anne.
That was why Jack decided to bring Anne back to live in Switzerland, because on the day Linda was in surgery, bad things almost happened to Anne. When he and the members of the Warriors wanted to visit Linda in the hospital, suddenly something unexpected happened. In front of the hospital, suddenly a robbery occurred by two inmates who had escaped from prison. And one of the prisoners had to be shot dead by a member of the Warriors because it was considered dangerous to Anne's life, because at that time the inmate was going to held Anne as a hostage at gunpoint. Luckily, one of the Warriors who had just returned from the toilet was not seen by the inmate who was pointing his gun at Anne at that time, so he managed to immobilize the criminal by shooting directly in the head from behind which automatically killed the inmate instantly.
After that incident, Anne became very afraid when she saw a stranger or a man with a black hat. Anne became afraid to leave the house even with Jack.
"Why is it so quiet? I haven't seen anyone since earlier, Jack. We didn't have the wrong address, did we?
" asked Anne slowly when she realized that she hadn't seen anyone, even at the front gate there was no one guarding.
Jack stifled a laugh.
"Really? It's just your whims, babe. It's lunch time, looks like the maids are having lunch.
"
"Really? But I feel the atmosphere in this place is very different, I feel like something is off, Jack. What do you think, Luis?
"
Luis, who was playing with Christian, looked surprised.
"Y-you're talking to me, Madam?
"
"Ah, forget it, it's nothing important, Luis,
" said Anne quietly, waving her hand in the air.
From his seat Jack smiled. It seemed that Anne had gotten smarter. She had become more alert after what had happened to her two months ago and Jack liked it. And it wasn't long before the driver stopped the car, Jack rushed out first and walked to the other side of the car to help Anne out of the car, because due to her already large stomach, she was having a little difficulty moving.
After standing outside, Anne felt even more awkward when the big house seemed to have no occupants. It was really lonely and scary.
"Come on in,
" said Jack quietly.
Anne actually stood up straighter and didn't move.
"I'm afraid, let's just go to the hotel okay?
"
Jack smiled.
"Afraid of what? This is our house, babe. Just look at Luis, he's very calm, if anything is suspicious, Luis would have been alert.
"
Anne turned and bit her lower lip hard. It was really hard to describe how she was feeling right now. What was clear was that she was really feeling uneasy at this time, but because Jack kept pushing her, Anne finally gave in and ventured to step into the house where the atmosphere was very quiet.
When she was almost at the door suddenly…
Bang…bang…!
There was a loud sound of confetti before finally being followed by a loud clapping sound accompanied by whistles from several maids who suddenly appeared simultaneously from inside the house which was made pitch dark. .
"Welcome home, Mrs. Clarke.
"
Anne, who was very surprised, immediately closed her mouth tightly. She couldn't believe she got such a lively reception.
Several maids continued to say welcome to Anne. Alice who was in the front already hugged Anne tightly. She immediately touched Anne's big belly carefully.
"Welcome home, Madam,
" said Alice again, feeling Anne's stomach.
"What is this, Alice?
" asked Anne, confused.
Alice smiled.
"It's nothing, Madam. Come on in, we'll see inside.
"
Like a proper child, Anne then walked carefully with Alice into the house. Her footsteps immediately stopped when she saw the scene in front of her at this time. Dozens of roses spread widely from the front door to the stairs, not to mention the pink and red balloon decorations that dominated the room. Everything was really so incredibly beautiful, Anne couldn't believe she would get such a special welcome. Anne's surprise had not disappeared, when suddenly a large bouquet of roses appeared in front of her.
"Welcome home, Mrs. Clarke,
" Jack said softly as he handed her the bouquet of roses with a loving smile.
Without speaking, Anne immediately accepted the bouquet of flowers Jack had given her and immediately hugged him.
"Don't tell me this was all planned out, Jack.
"
Jack smiled.
"It was me who had the idea, but they all worked hard on all of this,
" Jack answered slowly as he shifted his body while moving his hand and pointing at everyone who was standing behind him.
Anne immediately turned to Erick, Alice and all the maids who had worked hard in preparing a welcome party for Anne. While looking at everyone, suddenly appeared from behind someone Anne had just seen.
"Y-you, aren't you the one who…
"
