Chapter 316 - Anne's Action
Chapter 316 – Anne’s Action
Anne, who had been informed by Alice about Jack's plan, also followed Jack's follow-up game. After changing her clothes and applying a little make up on her face, Anne then went to the waiting room where Leon and Wayne met with Jack.
"You said you wanted to have lunch, but it turns out there are still guests. Well then, I'll just wait upstairs," said Anne slowly in response to Jack's words.
Jack shook his head. "No, I don't want you to go up and down. Just wait here, we'll be done soon. After all, it's just a misunderstanding, so it won't take long, dear."
"Misunderstood? What's the misunderstanding?" asked Anne, pretending to be curious. Even though Jack didn't ask her to interfere in his meeting with Leon, which was pretty serious, but Anne couldn't hide her curiosity.
Jack then told what had happened to Anne. He also showed the two contracts that were on the table. While talking, Jack didn't let go of his hand from Anne's waist at all, which made Leon, who was already hot seeing Anne's appearance, got even hotter when he saw the intimacy that Jack showed. Hearing Jack's explanation made Anne think hard. She was really confused right now. How was it possible that in one agreement there were 2 contracts with different contents and both contracts had both been signed by Jack and Leon, even both parties felt that each of the different contracts was the correct one. Jack felt that the contract he was holding was a valid contract, as well as Leon's who felt that the contract was valid.
In fact, it was clear in the two contracts that the amount of profit and investment provided was very different.
"Do you think you've signed this contract?" Anne asked Jack.
"Yes, I feel like I've signed this agreement, but somehow the contract that Mr. Leon holds is actually a contract that has a different nominal and that has really confused us for the last 45 minutes. Because these two contracts have been signed by me and by Mr. Ganke, as the CEO of Ganke Inc. Production, but strangely, I'm holding the 25% profit, while Mr. Leon is holding the 20%, the 5% difference is very big," answered Jack seriously.
Anne was silent hearing Jack's words. She seemed to be thinking hard at this time. When she was concentrating, suddenly the corner of Anne's eyes stared at Leon who was staring at her without blinking. Anne slowly smiled at Leon while pinching Jack's waist. She gave a code to Jack to talk to Leon about her. Jack who was too fascinated by Anne's beauty finally realized that.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ganke, I forgot, I think I have to formally introduce you. This is Anne, my fiancée," Jack said quietly as he tightened his arms around Anne's waist, smiling at Leon. "Ah, I forgot, you seem to have known Anne before. She is a former intern at Ganke Inc. Production in the head illustration section, isn't it? But don't worry, sir. Even though Anne is your worker, I guarantee you she didn't talk to me about anything about her work, My fiancée is very competent at her job."
"Fiancée," Leon stammered.
Anne smiled faintly at Leon's words. "Yes, Mr. Ganke," said Anne quickly, showing her ring finger, which had Jack's diamond ring on it.
"And regarding our conversation earlier, I've already forgot about it. I also want to thank the person who showed you the photo and video because I don't need to bother talking anymore, because you already know firsthand about my relationship with Jack. I have informed Professor Gilbert that starting this afternoon I am no longer an intern at Ganke Inc. Production, I have handed over all the work to Edward a while ago, and for the laptop I use for work, I have returned it via a driver, which may now already accepted by Edward. So I no longer have any ties with Ganke Inc. Production, and one more thing you should know, Mr. Leonardo Ganke, that you don't have to worry, because I don't have any copies of my work, so you don't have to worry if any information gets leaked," said Anne again, adding her previous words with a smile.
"Edward has all your work turned over?" Wayne asked quietly.
"Yeah, After all, actually if I leave Ganke Inc. Production at any time, there's no problem. Because I'm just an intern from a campus that works with Ganke Inc. Production, so there are no rules that bind me to the company. Probably, because I didn't manage to finish my work in Ganke Inc. Production, next semester, the choice for me is to do an internship again at another company and it looks like I've found the right company for my internship next semester, that is even when I …"
"If I still want you stay in college after we get married, dear, do not forget that." Jack cut off Anne's words quickly.
"Well, yes, that's if my fiancé still allows me to continue studying. If not, maybe I will be a housewife at home, taking care of my husband and children," said Anne again responding to Jack's words with a smile.
Leon's blood was boiling. His hands that were on his thighs were tightly clenched. He was really burning with jealousy when he heard the words of Anne and Jack who had discussed marriage, especially with the intimacy shown by Jack and Anne in front of his eyes. So his intention to mess with Jack was shattered, even though his plan today had almost succeeded by arguing on a different contract. Even though he actually knew that the correct contract was the one held by Jack, the problem was the contents of the contract had been changed, which he had also agreed to. However, because he wanted to find trouble with Jack, he finally pretended not to know the existence of the two different contracts.
"Okay then, when we get back from this office, I will confirm again with Edward about the rest of your unfinished work. Along with some files that you have done," Wayne answered slowly. Wayne couldn't do anything about Anne's decision to choose to leave the office.
Because as Anne said earlier that she was just an intern with no official contract at Ganke Inc. Production, she could leave whenever she wanted, if she felt uncomfortable. Because from the beginning, Leon had emphasized that he did not bind the students who worked in his office and he also gave freedom to the students, who were interns in his office, to stop at any time if they were not comfortable, and Leon's statement was clearly recorded in a speech he spoke in front of all the lecturers and the UAL students a few months ago, when he was trying to form a partnership with the arts college.
Anne smiled at Wayne's words. She returned her focus to the two contracts in front of her. She really paid attention to the two contracts which did not have any difference, starting from the signatures of Leon and Jack which look exactly the same, along with the same date. Only the amount of profit and the amount of investment invested by Muller Finance International into Ganke Inc. Production was the only difference between the two contracts.
"Do you ever feel like you've made a deal at this 25%, Jack?" asked Anne quietly after a while after she had been silent for a while.
"Yes, even at that time I also had a chat with Mr. Leonardo Ganke to discuss this before we finally agreed to the distribution in the figure of 25%. If Mr. Ganke did not accept my wish, I would then be unable to invest such a large amount, Anne," Jack answered seriously while pointing out the difference in the investment figures he invested in the different contracts.
Anne's eyes widened when she saw the numbers on the two contracts that Jack showed, suddenly her smile grew.
"May I see the history of your conversation?" asked Anne quietly.
Jack nodded his head and said, "Sure, it's all in my email. You can see them all."
Hearing Jack and Anne's serious conversation, Erick immediately opened Jack's laptop and handed it to Anne.
"Thanks Erick. Give me fifteen minutes, Mr Ganke. Let me check something first." Anne immediately spoke to Leon and glared at him.
"Of course, please," Leon answered quietly, trying to be strong even though his heart was beating fast.
