Chapter 722 - Block



After Steffi\'s coffin was completely buried in the ground, Jack then approached the mound of earth and placed a bouquet of lilies on it. "Anne has forgiven you, Steffi. Rest in your new place and thank you for being in Anne\'s life, because if you weren\'t around, then Anne and I might not be able to be together like we are today. Thank you again."

Erick smiled at the words of the master. As one of the people who witnessed the love journey of Anne and his master, Erick knew very well the important role of Steffi in the relationship between Anne and the master. Like his master, Erick slowly placed a flower on Steffi\'s grave.

After all the processes were completed, Jack then took Erick and Luis away from the graveyard. While walking towards the car, Erick\'s cell phone vibrated in his shirt pocket. He slowly reached for his cell phone and found out who sent him a message. Erick\'s face changed when he read the message sent by one of his subordinates who was tidying up Steffi\'s belongings from the hotel room. Steffi\'s laptop which contained her diary was opened and read by them. It seemed that Steffi deliberately did not set a password to her laptop so that anyone who found it could easily find out what was in his laptop.

"Sir."

Jack took off his glasses slowly. "What is it?"

"We have new evidence, sir," Erick answered quietly.

"What evidence?" Luis asked quickly.

"The evidence of Leon and Edmund\'s involvement in all the chaos that has been going on at the company."

Jack put one hand in his trouser pocket. "Speak clearly, Erick."

Erick took a deep breath and started to told him about the information he just got from his subordinates who were taking care of all the mess in the hotel room that was previously occupied by Steffi. Even though Steffi had paid for all the costs of her ten-day stay at the hotel, but the damage on the bed and other furniture that was splattered with blood were replaced by Jack.

"It seems that the woman really has prepared everything," said Luis briefly.

Jack nodded slowly. "Thankfully. At least, the woman realized her mistake all along and apologized to my wife before she died."

Eric smiled. "Then what should we do, sir?"

"Take Steffi\'s laptop and we\'ll study it. Gather all the evidence before arresting the two mentally ill men," replied Jack coldly, remembering Leon and Edmund spoiled Jack\'s mood.

"There are three men, don\'t forget Johnny. It was Johnny Immanuel who made Edmund to be so ambitious to seize your father\'s company," said Erick quickly.

Louis chuckled. "Calm down, sir, you are not alone at the moment. I have someone to help get rid of the pests, so you keep your promise to Mr. Calvin. Don\'t hurt your uncle and adopted brother."

Jack smiled. "Yeah, you\'re right. At least my promise to Daddy will be kept."

Because the day was getting late and the three had not eaten, Jack finally decided to take them out of the cemetery to find a restaurant while making a new plan using the new evidence found from Steffi\'s laptop.

On the way to the restaurant, Jack busied himself texting with Anne. Occasionally, he smiled when he read the messages that Anne sent.

Anne1. Clarke:

Please bring me baklava after you guys are done with business in Switzerland.

Jackson K. Clarke:

What is Baklava? It\'s a weird name, this is the first time I\'ve heard of it.

Anne1.Clarke:

Use your wits to figure out what baklava is, don\'t ask me back.

Jack was silent for a long time when he read the message that Anne sent. Without thinking, Jack then did a search on the internet to find out what baklava was. His smile widened when he saw what baklava was. Baklava was a type of Turkish pastry that had a unique characteristic in the form of a layered texture. This typical Turkish dish had a very sweet taste which was perfect to eat in the afternoon with a glass of Turkish tea.

JacksonK.Clarke:

As your wish princess, I\'ll bring you what you want. Be patient, after all my business is finished, I will return to you and forgive me for my dishonesty yesterday. I\'m too selfish to think about your feelings.

Anne1.Clarke:

I\'ll forgive you once what I asked for is already in my hands. If it hasn\'t, that means I haven\'t given my apologies to you.

Jack smiled reading the last message from Anne before he finally froze when he read a notification that appeared on his cell phone.

\'This user has blocked you\'

The notification sound appeared when Jack sent the crying emoticon earlier to Anne.

"Ah really, looks like we have to move quickly so this matter can be resolved quickly," said Jack frustrated.

Eric frowned. "Has there been another problem, sir?"

"Yeah, Anne blocked my cell phone number if I came back soon with baklava."

"Baklava?" At the same time Erick and Luis repeated the name of the Turkish food in confusion, because it was the first time they heard it, just like Jack a moment ago. Damn, it was not only Jack who was stupid.

"Use your cell phones to find out what baklava is," said Jack curtly.

Blocked by Anne made Jack uneasy, he was really restless and couldn\'t focus. Jack now vowed not to forgive Leon and Edmund and Johnny Immanuel the uncle without blood ties.

Meanwhile, Erick and Luis were busy figuring out what baklava was through their respective cell phones. When they found out what baklava was, they both smiled a little. As fierce as the master was, he would still shrink from his wife and this has been proven time and time again. Well, it seemed that the laws of nature do apply. So the big saying that behind a man\'s success, there was a great woman seemed to be true.

All the way to the restaurant to fill up Jack\'s stomach, he kept trying to text Anne. It wasn\'t really just a message. But he also sent various sad emoticons, but because Anne still blocked his number, the messages were stuck on his cell phone and didn\'t reach their destination. Jack finally thought of a crazy idea to be able to communicate with Anne.

With a big smile, Jack started to play his fingers giddily on the screen of his cell phone before he finally sent the message.

"Hehe..."

A disturbing smile appeared on Jack\'s face a second later.
