Chapter 584 - Instant Karma
Chapter 584 – Instant Karma
Anne painstakingly fed Christian his food. She hadn't touched any of the food that Giselle had prepared for her. Everything was still on the table in the same position as when Giselle had put them down the first time.
"I'm full, Mommy," Christian said quietly, rejecting Anne's last bite.
"Really? But there's still some left. If you don't finish it all, Mommy is sad," answered Anne quickly pretending to be sad.
Christian was silent for a few moments, until he finally decided to take the last bite and chewed on it eagerly. Jack smiled seeing his son's adorable behavior. He then took the plate from Anne's hand and placed it on the table right on the table next to the salad that had been spat on by Giselle.
"Christian is full, now it's your turn to eat," said Jack softly.
Anne grabbed the bottle of mineral water in front of her and drank it straight to the toilet. "I'm not hungry, Jack."
Jack raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean by not hungry?"
"Well, I'm just not hungry yet, how else should I explain it?"
"Isn't the food to your taste?" asked Jack guessing, his arms wrapped around Anne's waist.
Anne smiled faintly. She was embarrassed that Jack knew what was in her heart. Actually, Anne was reluctant to tell the truth because she felt bad for Giselle who had prepared all the food.
"Okay, then tell me what do you want to eat?" Jack asked softly again.
"Saffron risotto, I'd love to have that, Jack."
"Saffron risotto? Nothing else?" Jack reassured Anne.
"For now I just want that."
Jack pursed his lips. He then removed his hand from Anne's waist and grabbed his cell phone which was on the table. Jack planned to ask Giselle for help again, but Anne quickly restrained Jack's hand.
"I want to eat at the restaurant, not at the office. The taste will change if you don't eat it at the restaurant, Jack," said Anne quickly.
Jack chuckled. He realized his mistake. "Yeah, I think you're right. Well then let's go to that risotto restaurant you want."
"Us? Do you want to come too?"
Jack grabbed Anne's chin and kissed her gently. "Of course, who do you want to go with?"
"But these foods, they haven't been eaten, Jack. It's such a waste," said Anne honestly, looking at all the food in front of her.
"Relax, there's Giselle. She will take care of it. We haven't touched them at all, so I think they can still be enjoyed by others," replied Jack with a smile.
After saying that, Jack then contacted Giselle via his cell phone, asking his secretary to come into his room.
Not even a minute, Giselle was already standing in front of Anne and Jack. Anne tried to avoid eye contact with Giselle. It was not without reason, as she felt uncomfortable with the make-up that Giselle was currently wearing. It was too much make up to be wore in the office, so Anne chose not to make eye contact with her so as not to comment on the make-up on Giselle's face. This was done by Anne to protect Giselle's feelings too, because Anne was sure that if she commented on Giselle's appearance, Giselle would be offended and angry with her.
"Is there anything else I can do for you, Jack?"
Thump!
Anne immediately raised an eyebrow when she heard Giselle mentioned Jack with his first name.
"It looks like my wife and I will go out for lunch outside. Please tidy up this table and all this food has not been touched at all by my wife and I. Therefore, if you don't mind trying to offer them to the office girl in this office, who knows they will want tje," Jack answered quietly without letting go of his grip on Anne's.
Giselle's jaw immediately hardened upon hearing Jack's words. Both of her hands were already tightly clenched on the right and left sides of her body. Giselle really had almost reached the limit of her patience this time.
"W-well, I'll give it to the office girl then."
Jack smiled and raised Anne's hand to his lips for a kiss. Jack was completely oblivious to the change in Giselle's expression. Even Anne, who was focusing on Christian, felt that there was something odd about Giselle's voice, but because she had decided not to look at Giselle, Anne finally tried to dispel her suspicions.
"Thanks Giselle, then we will go now," said Jack again as he grabbed Christian from Anne's lap to carry.
Giselle just smiled at Jack's words. She stepped back to make way for Jack and his wife and son to leave the room. When Anne tidied up her things that had been messed up, Jack's son was still faithfully waiting for her right in front of Giselle, who slightly lowered her face.
"Put on your coat, babe. It's cold outside."
Anne smiled. "I know."
"Come on Mommy… Come on… I want to go with Daddy."
"Patience baby," replied Anne with a faint smile.
The impatient Christian continued to chatter in Jack's arms and this made Jack laugh. The headache from the various ongoing projects seemed to disappear when he heard Christian's parrot-like chatter. The child really clung to Jack, even though his mother was beside him. Christian seemed to be asking for compensation for the time he had spent without his father's presence and Jack was aware of that too. That was why he still wanted to be with Christian everywhere.
Soon, Anne was ready. All her belongings that had previously been scattered on the sofa because Christian played with them were back in her limited edition Hermes bag.
"Okay, I'm ready."
"Come here, ladies first," said Jack gently, letting Anne go first.
Anne smiled. She then stepped past Jack and Giselle. After Anne came out of the door, Jack then immediately followed her with Christian, who had already stained his shirt with saliva. Seeing the master leave, Erick and Nicholas immediately left their work and the task of following behind after previously locking the door of their respective rooms. Even though they had work to do, Erick and Nicholas preferred to escort Jack.
With trembling hands, Giselle tidied up the plates that were on the table using the tray she had left when serving Anne the food. Since the food was completely untouched, it wasn't difficult for Giselle to tidy them up. Giselle slowly brought the tray to the pantry, when she arrived at the pantry, she immediately threw the plates containing the foods into the trash, including the salad she had mixed with her saliva before. However, for some reason, when Giselle was throwing the bowl of salad into the trash, the splash of the salad meat suddenly flew and entered her mouth where she suddenly coughed from choking, realizing that she had just swallowed the piece of meat from the salad she had mixed with his saliva.
"Fuck…fuck….aarrgghhhh…!!!"
Giselle screamed loudly as she ran to the toilet to vomit all her guts after accidentally swallowing a piece of meat from the salad she was actually preparing for Anne.
Karma was settled instantly!
