I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 691 - [Bonus ]Leaked
< The Geneva University Hospital >
"So you told Madam about the princess, Doc?" Luis asked in surprise to Doctor Caitlyn when they arrived in front of Anne's treatment room.
Doctor Caitlyn shook her head. "Not yet, it's just that Anne already knew she had given birth."
Luis immediately lowered his head slowly and turned to Jack who was sitting in a wheelchair.
"It's okay, Luis, leave the rest to me."
"Yes sir."
After preparing himself, Jack then walked into his wife's treatment room. He deliberately didn't use a wheelchair so as not to worry Anne. Jack did not want to add to the burden on Anne's mind.
With staggering steps, Jack finally arrived at Anne's bedside. Jack's eyes felt hot when he saw Anne closer.
"Jack, you've returned?" Anne's voice was low as she spoke.
Jack nodded slowly. "I just arrived."
"Everything's fine, right? Why did you come home early?"
Jack chuckled. He then walked to the chair beside Anne's bed. "Don't talk too much, you still need a lot of rest," he said softly as he grabbed Anne's hand, which was not on an IV.
Anne pursed her lips. "I missed you, Jack."
"Me too. That's why I hastened my return schedule."
"Jack."
"Yes, the baby."
Anne released her hand from Jack's grip and touched his stomach. "Princess is born Jack." Anne's voice was hoarse as she spoke. "Have you seen her?"
Jack gripped his thigh tightly. "I immediately visited you when I arrived at the hospital, dear. I haven't seen the princess. I want to see her with you."
Anne's tears fell so suddenly that it made Jack panic.
"Babe..."
"You're the worst liar ever, Jack. Sob..."
"What do you mean?" 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
Anne touched her chest which felt tight. Anne had been holding back her tears since yesterday when she realized she couldn't feel the princess's movement in her stomach anymore.
"I'm sorry, Jack. I can't be a good mother," said Anne in a barely audible voice with her eyes closed.
"Anne.."
Anne opened her eyes slowly and looked at Jack. "I'm sure the princess can't possibly survive, right? You already know that too right? Otherwise how could you come back from Korea earlier than the scheduled time?"
"I know, when I tried to save Christian I had lost the princess. I know sob.. my daughter didn't survive, right? I know the princess must have gone after her brother, right? Sob ..."
Anne cried bitterly, even though no one told about the news of the princess and the truth about her, Anne was sure that her daughter was gone.
With trembling hands, Jack grabbed Anne's face and gently wiped her tears. "Don't cry baby, for me what matters is you are fine now and that's enough for me Anne. So please don't cry, I don't want to see you like this."
"I felt my stomach hurt at that time, Jack. If only at that time I held my body using both hands maybe it would be a different story now, maybe the princess is still with us. I'm sorry Jack, I'm sorry I can't take care of the princess properly. I'm sorry sob..."
Jack immediately got up from his seat and hugged Anne tightly. He wanted to make Anne stop her words. That was why he used his body and immediately hugged Anne tightly.
"Don't blame yourself, what happened to the princess was an accident that you didn't mean to do. So stop blaming yourself, God definitely won't be happy if you continue like this, Anne. We'll accept and face all of this gracefully. We've been through a storm that is harder than this. I'm sure this time we will be able to get through it well, believe me, Anne. Let princess go, God must be preparing a big gift for us after this, "Jack said hoarsely as he hugged Anne.
Jack tried hard to hold back his tears, although the tears continued to be stubborn and rolled down his face in silence, in contrast to Anne who had been crying loudly. Anne, who didn't know Jack was hurt, was hugging him tightly. Because of Anne's tight embrace, Jack realized that his chest was wet again, but he didn't feel the wound on his chest. What was on Jack's mind right now was how to calm Anne down, like Luis said earlier at the graveyard. Of all the people who hurt, Anne was the one who was hurt the most.
Doctor Caitlyn, who had heard the husband and wife conversation earlier, was wiping her tears. She was carried away by what Anne and Jack were talking about. At first, Doctor Caitlyn thought that Anne would go crazy when she found out that her daughter couldn't be saved, but eventually Doctor Caitlyn realized that Anne was stronger than she imagined.

< Office of the UN Secretariat General, Geneva >
Chester, who was preparing to return to New York, seemed to be busy with piles of documents that he must take care of before returning. As an important person in the largest organization, Chester's was no doubt super busy. Because of that, sometimes he even forgot his lunch, like at this time where he was still reading several files regarding the problem of racism that still occured in several European countries that were still racist towards other ethnicities who visit or work in their country.
Racism was an issue that never stopped being discussed at the general assembly, the high egoism of certain humans made such things difficult to eliminate.
When Chester was checking the files submitted by several delegates, suddenly the door to his room opened and Edward came in with a box of food made by Chester's mother.
"I'm not a child, Edward. So stop bringing me lunch like that," Chester said loudly when he realized that Edward, his cousin, had come. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com
Edward scowled. "You think I want to deliver this food to you every day? If it weren't for aunty, I wouldn't have wanted to, it would be better if you got married soon, Chester, so aunty wouldn't keep reminding you to eat like a child."
Chester immediately lifted his face and glared at Edward. "You talk so much. You'd better go back to London. Your presence is not wanted in this place."
"I'm not visiting you. You're visiting my dear aunty, uncle and niece, Charlotte. So don't be so big-headed."
Chester fixed his gaze on Edward, his cousin, was really very talkative. And Chester was fed up with him. When Chester wanted to call Michael, his personal assistant, suddenly from behind the door, Michael appeared uninvited.
"Ah good, you..."
"Sir, take a look at the news, there is sad news from the Clarke family, sir."
"Sad news? What sad news?"
Michael who just ran seemed to swallow his saliva quickly. "Mrs. Clarke's baby died, it's talked about a lot in the news right now."
Hearing Michael's words, Edward immediately grabbed the television remote that was on Chester's desk. He quickly pressed the power button and the large black television screen immediately showed the news of the death of Princess Clarke. The tomb of the eight-month-old baby was currently appearing on all social media, both print and electronic.
"Jesus, Anne got a miscarriage," Edward said quietly as he confirmed that the Princess Clarke whose grave he was looking at was the grave of Anne and Jack's daughters.
