Chapter 222 - Starting The Battle ?

Once arriving at home, Jack was immediately greeted by Erick and Alice who stood with their hands on hips, staring at Jack without blinking in the parking area. They were standing right in front of him, who was parking the car.

"Is there something wrong?" He asked his assistant and personal secretary innocently.

"We\'ve been waiting for you here for over four hours, Sir. Where have you been? I missed my favorite Netflix drama series, I missed that precious dinner time with my mom and..."

"This month I\'ll increase your salary by five percent, Alice," Jack cut off Alice\'s words quickly as he walked away from both Alice and Erick without feeling guilty at all.

Gulp

Alice swallowed her saliva slowly after hearing what Jack had said. A five percent salary increase would add such a huge increase in her monthly salary. Her anger quickly went away.

"Hey, why are you only silent? Didn\'t you say you wanted to scold the Master?" Erick asked quietly, interrupting Alice, who was calculating her salary after being raised by Jack.

"I-I was thinking that… maybe it is better if we aren\'t disappointed with the boss, Erick. After all, he\'s our boss, so we shouldn\'t treat him like that. Let\'s go inside now before we are freezing to death here," Alice answered Erick\'s question quickly, fortunately, she managed to quickly control the situation. That way she didn\'t look like she was daydreaming in front of Erick. Without another word, Alice went straight inside the house following Jack.

On the other hand, Erick, who was still annoyed, couldn\'t believe the drastic change in Alice\'s attitude. He couldn\'t believe that Alice would change so easily. Just seconds ago, Alice was the one who got so angry and he was actually provoked by Alice but now she just acted normal as if nothing happened.

"Women are such difficult creatures to understand!!" Said Erick after feeling so annoyed while kicking the pile of snow in front of his feet.

Since he got colder from standing outside and he was rather tired, he then decided to immediately go into the house. He needed to get an important file from Jack as soon as possible. He would use the file to study before going to a meeting tomorrow morning at an important client that Jack had been eyeing for the past few weeks.

After getting inside, Erick\'s patience had to be tested again because Jack was taking a shower. After fifteen minutes had passed, Jack was seen walking down from the second floor carrying a folder containing important files in his hand.

"I made two copies of this, please read carefully. I don\'t want to make the slightest mistake tomorrow morning. You should remember that this new client is the richest man in England. We have to get this tender. If we succeed in convincing this person to invest in the company, I\'m sure Muller Finance International in London will be as big as the head office in Switzerland," said Jack at length as he placed the file on the table in front of Erick and Alice.

"Yes, we understand, Sir," Erick and Alice replied in unison to Jack\'s words. These two people turned into the most serious creatures when discussing work even when they were so angry at Jack previously.

Because their short briefing about the meeting was over, Erick then said goodbye to Jack. He had to take Alice home because it was quite late. Jack\'s driver was actually ready to take Alice home but Erick insisted on taking her home. He wanted to make sure Alice got home instead of going to a bar. He was worried that Alice would get wasted at a bar or club and messed up the meeting tomorrow morning. Erick\'s suspicion came after he heard Alice was talking to some of her friends who invited her to a bar to celebrate one of her friends\' birthdays. In conclusion, it was wise for Erick to take her home by himself to ensure everything.

Alice, who actually wanted to go to her friend\'s birthday party, couldn\'t refuse Erick\'s offer, especially when Jack was with them. As a result, Alice couldn\'t help but cancel her plan tonight because she was going home with Erick.

"Please make sure that Alice arrives at her home safely, Erick. You also have to make sure that the woman Alice called \'mother\' earlier is really her mother. Don\'t flirt around this time, Erick," Jack said jokingly to tease Alice.

"Sir..."

"Hahahaha, I will stop now. You two can go home. Be careful on the way, Erick. You have to come home immediately after dropping her off," said Jack again, interrupting Alice\'s words.

"I understand, Sir, I\'ll go straight home afterward," Erick answered quickly to Jack\'s advice.

Jack nodded his head as Erick\'s car slowly left his mansion towards the highway. Since he was so tired, Jack finally went back inside right away. Today he was very happy because he could spend more time alone with Anne. He could still feel the scent of Anne\'s body, especially when he tasted Anne\'s thin lips. Everything about Anne drove Jack crazy.

He finally fell asleep shortly after he sent a good night message to Anne who was now willing to be his wife. Although he had not formally proposed to Anne, Jack was now more confident than before because he already knew the answer from Anne herself. Her answer was more than enough for him.

Now all he needed to do was to be patient and arrange the next steps. Even when Anne didn\'t want to get married immediately, he would prepare everything well. Jack hoped that in the near future Anne would change her mind and want to marry him right away. Jack fell asleep with a big smile on his face. The thought of his wedding preparations with Anne made Jack so happy. He had never slept with such a happy smile before. Back when he had Sophia Higgins in his life, Jack never smiled like this in his sleep.

Meanwhile, Aaron who was already in his study room with Daniel seemed to be so busy. He asked Daniel to find out what Jack was going to do.

"I need to know what Jackson Muller\'s plans for Daniel\'s company are. Once I know his plan, it\'ll be easy for me to ruin it," said Aaron, full of confidence. The only thing on Aaron\'s mind right now was to get Jack out of Anne\'s life as soon as possible.

"Please wait a minute, Boss. I need a little more time to hack into Muller Finance International\'s security system," Daniel, who was busy with his laptop, answered Aaron\'s words quickly. Luckily, Daniel had some skills related to the cyber world and this was also one of many reasons why Aaron asked Daniel to stay by his side.

"Ok, I trust you. The important thing is that you can get the results I want, Daniel," said Aaron quickly.

Daniel, who was still busy trying to hack into Jack\'s office security system, looked a little disappointed. It turned out that Muller Finance International\'s security system was at an amazing level. He couldn\'t get through it. But because he didn\'t want to disappoint Aaron, Daniel tried to hack some social media accounts of people closest to Jack. The target was his personal secretary. Daniel believed that as Jack\'s personal secretary, she must have some information about the company.

With that thought in mind, Daniel tried to hack Alice\'s social media account. Soon, a smile appeared on Daniel\'s face when he managed to hijack Alice\'s social media account. Once he managed to hack Alice\'s social media account, he also managed to open the email connected to that social media account. As a result, Daniel could find out Alice\'s schedule for Jack for the next few days.

"Look at this, Boss," Daniel said quietly, showing a schedule containing Jack\'s important meeting with several big clients.

"Good job Daniel! Now it\'s my part. I\'ll call Uncle Matthew to ask him to cancel his meeting with Jackson Patrick Muller," Aaron said softly with a triumphant smile when he saw one of the names on the schedule of Jack\'s private secretary that Daniel had hacked.
