I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 40 - Jack's Plan

When it was already eight o'clock in the evening, Aaron still had to accept the request of the UAL students to take a photo together. It seemed like he was trying so hard to hold his emotions back. The fragrance of the students' various perfumes mingled into one was very pungent and it gave him a terrible headache. Daniel, who knew his master was uncomfortable, could only smile from his seat without doing anything. He could only share his sympathy about what happened to his master without being able to help him escape from the crowd of female students.

After forty-five minutes trapped among the UAL students, Aaron was finally able to free himself from the crowd after one of the lecturers tried to drive out the female students. Daniel had asked the lecturer to help Aaron got out of the unexpected situation. Aaron's face was so red since he was trying his best to hold back his anger. He then walked toward where Daniel was. ??

"Are you trying to test me, Danie? You are really trying to create a situation with me, Daniel," Aaron said coldly, glaring at Daniel.

"What did I do wrong?" asked Daniel, pretending to be innocent about the whole incident.

"You didn't see how those female students were gathering around me like a bunch of female bees?" replied Aaron in a rising voice.

Hearing Aaron's words calling the beautiful female students as bees made him burst out laughing until his tears came out.

"Keep on laughing, Daniel, don't blame me if I tear your mouth wide open," Aaron threatened Daniel.

"This is the first time I heard someone referring to beautiful girls as female bees, you are truly extraordinary, sir," said Daniel quickly, closing his mouth.

"Bees are noisy while looking for honey, just like those students," Aaron replied curtly.

"Don't blame the girls, blame your greedy good looks," Daniel said curtly as he walked slowly leaving Aaron towards the exit.

Aaron, who still did not understand the meaning of Daniel's conversation, tilted his head in horror. However, a smile soon appeared on his face when he managed to understand the meaning of Daniel's words. When Aaron smiled, the girls who had not yet got their photo shouted loudly again, it shocked Aaron a bit to the point where he gained full consciousness. Without waiting longer, Aaron immediately followed Daniel's steps out of the multipurpose building. He did not want to be surrounded by the female bees that drove him crazy just like before. His bodyguards were not able to help him inside since they were assigned to guard the outside of the building. That way, Aaron could easily get into his car without being disturbed after exited out of the room. Although it can be seen how some girls were waiting for him outside the building by queuing nicely.

"Girls these days are very scary, they don't hesitate to scream like that at all," said Daniel quietly, shaking his head slowly when he saw the female students trying to approach the car.

"But I know one girl who isn't like any of them," Aaron said quickly.

Daniel closed his mouth immediately when Aaron talked about Anne, he was actually also surprised at the girl. It was unbelievable knowing that Anne chose to go home earlier when a handsome CEO from a famous company will visit her campus. It was kind of shocking as well knowing that Aaron was someone who would make any girl fell in love with him instantly. Daniel then instructed the driver to immediately leave the campus area. Daniel took out his cellphone to waste some time in the car since there was no conversation happening between him and Aaron. He tried to find Anne's address from the student's personal data. But he got disappointed again because the address that Anne entered was her old address at Newcastle Upon Tyne.

When Daniel was trying to find Anne's address, Aaron was looking at his cellphone displaying Anne's inactive phone number while sitting anxiously in the back seat.

"I will not give up Anne, I will come to ask you to fulfill the promise you owe me," said Aaron to himself, smiling at his cellphone.

Not long after, Aaron closed his eyes, the journey from UAL to his house took almost an hour. He chose to go home because he was very uncomfortable with his clothes, which had been pulled by the UAL students who asked for a photo with him earlier. The pungent scent of their perfume was also left on his clothes.

Meanwhile, in her new flower shop, Anne looked very messy with clothes full of paint residue. Anne still helped with the painting process even though she had hired two painters to repaint her new shop. Anne insisted to help even after being told by the painters that she did not need to help out. She was persistent in making a picture on the wall near the cashier table where she would sit later, Anne's efforts were worth it because the picture she made looked very beautiful and it made everyone smile when they saw it. Anne drew several sunflowers that were in contrast to the sky blue background paint.

"Thank you, miss, you pay us too much than we initially agreed on," said the first painter with teary eyes when he saw the money Anne handed to him.

"Yes, miss, we usually got paid half the payment you have already given to us. Moreover, we were only assigned to paint a small shop," added the second painter in response to the words of the first painter.

"It's okay, sir, just consider the rest as a tip from me because the two of you have helped me making my flower shop looked very beautiful," said Anne, smiling sincerely.

"Thank you miss, thank you again for your kindness. I hope your flower shop is selling well," said the two painters almost simultaneously praying for Anne sincerely.

"Amen," answered Anne quickly.

Not long after, the two painters finally left Anne happily because the wages given by Anne were twice the wages they usually received every day, even though they did not do much work.

"I'm so tired, I better go home. I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow," said Anne quietly while yawning, she was very tired but also very happy because this flower shop was now looked more beautiful with her new paint.

After tidying up her painting tools, Anne locked the door of her new shop which was still empty and walked towards her sedan she parked in front of the shop. After leaving the new shop, Anne drove straight to her apartment not far from the shop. While driving the car, she kept smiling and thanking God repeatedly for giving her an easy way to start everything over.

Geneva, Switzerland

Jack, who had just finished taking a shower, was seen sitting at his desk in his room. He got interested in one of the articles about Aaron Sean Connery, who had just received an award from UAL for the collaboration he made with the best art college in the UK.

"It looks like you have started to spread your wings, Aaron," Jack said softly, as a fellow entrepreneur he really admired Aaron's way of working. But he had a personal grudge against Aaron after he saw a photo of Aaron walking with Anne near Anne's apartment a few months ago.

Soon, a smile appeared on Jack's face.

"See you soon Aaron, I want to see your abilities with my own eyes,"
