Chapter 575 – Executing Orders
A black Rolls-Royce Cullinan car was seen entering the office building area belonging to Muller Finance International. The car driven by Luis himself stopped right in front of the office lobby. As soon as Luis stopped, he immediately got out of the car and rushed to the back door to help Anne down.
"I can do it myself, Luis."
"This is my job, Madam. Don't forget," Luis answered quickly.
Anne smiled at Luis' words. She then looked around at her husband's office which was already in front of her eyes.
"Come in, Madam."
Anne looked doubtful, she felt bad because ever since she got out of the car a few moments ago, the Muller Finance International staffs in the lobby were staring at her from head to toe without blinking and it made Anne uncomfortable.
"Is that all right, Luis?"
Louis smiled. "This is your husband's office, Madam. So it doesn't matter."
Anne nodded her head. She then stepped into the office which was now guarded by two well-dressed men at the entrance.
"Welcome to Muller Finance International, please go to the reception desk to provide information about your purpose in coming to this office," said one of the guards politely to Anne.
"Thank you." Luis quickly answered the doorman's words.
The two doormen actually wanted to talk again, but they canceled it after seeing Luis's intimidating gestures. Luis, who couldn't wait to meet Christian, immediately took Anne to the reception desk. Seeing that there were two guests arriving, the three receptionists who had previously sat down immediately stood up and behaved perfectly, giving Luis and Anne a friendly smile.
"Welcome to Muller Finance International, is there anything I can help you with, Sir, Madam?"
Luis took out a card wallet from his pocket and handed one of his business cards to the three friendly receptionists. As soon as they read Luis' name on the business card, the three receptionists' faces turned tense.
"Y-you're Mr. Luis Cobb from Luxembourg, the head office," one of the receptionists stammered.
Louis smiled. "That's right and I'm currently bringing Mrs. Clarke, your boss' wife. Do you think the wife of the owner of this company has to go through such a difficult procedure?" Luis glanced at the guest book that was handed to him and Anne.
"Mrs. Clarke."
"Yes, this is Mrs. Marianne Clarke. You have to remember it and it looks like there are a lot of Mrs. Anne's pictures on the internet too, it's very funny if you don't recognize her." Luis again cut off the words of one of the receptionists who wore a name tag that read Judy in a rising voice.
Suddenly, the three receptionists immediately looked down at Luis' words, even some of the female staffs who had been staring cynically at Anne, immediately turned their eyes to another direction, but unfortunately Luis saw their movements.
"Luis, don't." Anne tried to stop Luis from approaching the three female staffs who had been whispering about Anne.
Luis turned and smiled at Anne. "They should be taught manners, Madam."
Anne took a deep breath. She had forgotten that Luis was a former special police officer. Therefore, Anne finally let Luis approach the female staffs who had previously talked about Anne behind her back.
"You know why I came?" Luis asked to the point at the three female staffs, who had looked down in fear.
"No, sir."
Louis smiled faintly. "Look up. I don't like talking to someone who has her head down."
Suddenly, the three staffs immediately raised their faces and looked at Luis, timidly.
"That beautiful woman, whom you have been talking about for a while now is Mrs. Clarke, the wife of Mr. Jackson Knight Clarke, your boss. What punishment do you think is appropriate for impolite staffs like you if Mr. Clarke finds out?"
Bam!
The three female staffs immediately kneeled in front of Luis instantly. The three of them apologized to Luis as their eyes turned red and wet. Anne actually didn't like seeing this and wanted to approach Luis, but she realized that Luis couldn't be stopped. Luis couldn't allow anyone to look down on a member of the Clarke family.
"For once I forgive all of you. But remember, there's no such thing as repeating the same mistake twice. I'm a very good person at remembering a person's face, so you have to remember what I said very well if you still want to work for this company. To fire three people like you are easy for me. One thing you have to remember is that Clarke Enterprise is not a small company. There are about 5 million people worldwide working under our company, so losing three incompetent staff like you will have no effect on our company at all," Luis said at length, giving a warning to the three staffs who had previously dared to talk about Anne right in front of her.
Before Mr. David Clarke passed away, Luis had been given a great responsibility by his late employer to protect Anne from all those who tried to harm her. Mr. David Clarke knew Anne was a good woman, so he didn't want anyone to hurt her. Luis had once failed to protect Anne from Jack's wrath a few years ago because of those fake photos, which was why Luis didn't want to repeat the same mistake now.
The three female staffs immediately apologized repeatedly to Anne, who was standing not far from Luis' place with tears in their eyes.
Because she couldn't bear it, Anne then approached Luis and asked Luis to stop scolding the women.
"You heard it, didn't you? If it weren't for Mrs. Clarke's request, I probably wouldn't have let you go this time. So you better get out of my way and get on with your work before I change my mind and make you regret for daring to spit dirty words out of your mouth about Mrs. Clarke."
Hearing Luis' last words, the three female staffs immediately got up and rushed out of the place.
"You're exaggerating, Luis," said Anne quietly.
Louis smiled. "No Madam, it is my duty. As long as I am alive, I will not allow anyone to harm Mr. Clarke's family."
Anne took a deep breath. She didn't intend to continue her debate with Luis. "Well, let's not talk about it anymore, let's go meet Jack. I already miss Christian, I'm sure you want to see him too, don't you?"
Luis' face immediately softened when she talked about Christian. "Of course, Madam."
"Okay let's go to Jack's office," said Anne quietly as she walked towards the elevator.
Luis nodded his head quickly. He then turned to the three receptionists who looked very frightened after seeing what Luis was doing in front of them.
"You scared everyone in the office, Luis," said Anne quietly as she stepped into the elevator.
Luis smoothed his hair. "Don't be too kind, Madam. Girls like that should be taught a lesson not to go too far. How dare they comment on a strange woman with such disrespectful words? Just because you look so much prettier than they are, so they can talk like that. Whoever it is, shouldn't they be careful in speaking like that? Luckily, I was the only one who heard what they said. Imagine if the Big Master was still around. Maybe they will no longer be able to work in this company."
Anne smiled. "Thanks, Luis, I know you're just doing your job. But next time, don't be so loud, I'm afraid."
"Was I being too harsh, Madam?"
Anne chuckled. "Yeah, I almost fainted earlier. You're really terrible, I'm sure the three staffs won't be able to sleep well tonight."
Luis laughed out loud at Anne's words. Not long after that Anne and Luis' conversation stopped because the elevator had stopped on the 40th floor, the top floor of the Muller Finance International building where Jack's room was located.
When Anne got off the elevator, several male staffs, who did not know that she was Mrs. Clarke, stared at her without blinking. Luis actually wanted to reprimand them, but Anne immediately gave a code to Luis to restrain himself. As a result, Luis could only stay silent and let dozens of pairs of male eyes stare at his mistress with hungry eyes.
"Mommy!!!"
