I'll Teach You, Marianne.-Chapter 708 - Starting To Move

Since returning from the hospital, Giselle's attitude has changed 360 degrees. She had become quiet and didn't respond to anyone's words, neither her parents nor her husband. Giselle just sat on the sofa in her room, hugging her legs, staring at the backyard through the large window in her room.

Giselle was very shocked when she found out that she was the suspect in all the cases that had been carried out by Leon, from the Muller Finance International hack to the attack to Jack in Seoul. Giselle couldn't believe that Leon had the heart to betray her and make her a scapegoat. Currently, Giselle was very afraid of meeting strangers. She was afraid that she would be brought before Jack and get punished by him.

"No ... No ... I'm not a murderer, I didn't kill anyone!!"

"Go... go ..."

"I didn't do that, I don't know anything ... sob ... I'm not a criminal."

"I'm innocent! Go!!"

"I didn't hurt you, Jack. It wasn't me ... I never wanted to hurt you Jack."

"I'm sorry, Jack, I was wrong."

"Don't hate me, Jack, don't." f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Brandon Allen and his wife could only surrender when they heard the screams of Giselle who was being examined by a doctor who was being called by Frederick. Frederick was worried to see Giselle's drastic change in attitude and then called the Allen family doctor to check on Giselle's condition.

"How is my daughter, Doc?" Brandon Allen immediately asked the question to the doctor as the doctor had just come out of Giselle's room.

"Did Miss Giselle just have something that shocked her?" the doctor asked Brandon Allen back.

"No, Doc, she's fine. But yesterday she was taken to the police station because of a misunderstanding, then the rest of the day, nothing else has happened," said Mrs. Allen answering the doctor's question.

The male doctor took a deep breath. "It seems that your daughter has gone through quite a mental shock, due to an event that has occurred. Therefore, she has to receive intensive care at the hospital so that we can monitor her condition."

"H-hospital?" Frederick, who just came out of Giselle's room, was surprised to hear the doctor's words. "Is there no other way, Doc?"

The doctor then said the possibility that happened to Giselle was seen from the results of the examination he had just done. While the doctor spoke, Giselle's parents did not dare to interrupt. The two of them could only sit and listen to the doctor's words with a confused look, while Frederick looked very surprised. He couldn't believe that Giselle had such a bad mental disorder. Even though Giselle had been acting normally like any other girl even though Frederick knew that Giselle didn't really love him.

"The trauma she got while still in school left a deep impression on her, so it's not surprising that she worships someone who has helped her so much. That's a very natural thing. These kinds of things often happen to victims of acts of bullying like Giselle's, especially the bullying that she experienced occurred during her school days which will continue to be remembered in her brain memory," said the doctor at length after hearing the story of Giselle's parents who had told what Giselle had experienced when she was a teenager.

"But Giselle is fine, Doc. We even dated normally like every other couples for years and Giselle never showed me any strange attitude," said Frederick loudly. He could not accept Giselle being called so adoring Jack.

The doctor gently tapped Frederick's shoulder gently. "We never know what's really in a person's heart and mind, especially in the case of Miss Giselle. What we need to do now is help her get back up. If possible, we can continue to accompany her until she forgets the bad things that have happened to her. We can't get rid of her fear 100%, but at least it will be able to make Miss Giselle forget about the incident slowly. Trust me, victims of bullying or harassment like this won't heal in a year or two. That's why the support of their loved ones is very important and needed at this time, moreover you are her husband."

Frederick immediately closed his lips tightly. Guilt rose in his heart because he never knew what had really happened to his wife.

Not long after that, the doctor left the Allen family residence, leaving Frederick and Giselle's parents sitting in front of Giselle's room. Giselle was currently sleeping after being given a sedative by the doctor.

"How about we move? We'll start everything from scratch. I can't bear to see Giselle's condition like this," said Frederick quietly with growing guilt. He couldn't bear to see Giselle suffered like this.

All this time, Frederick thought that Giselle was only using him for sex, but after knowing in detail what had happened to his wife, Frederick felt sorry that he had used Giselle and her family.

"What a jerk! He seems to be courting death with me," said Jack quietly as he read the message Erick sent him.

A few moments ago, Erick's subordinates who had been stationed around the Allen family's residence managed to block the doctor's car that had just left the Allen family's house. The doctor then told what really happened to Giselle to Erick's men. After receiving the report, Erick then reported it to the master who was currently at Newcastle upon Tyne.

Jack was currently really angry and annoyed with Leon. The guy was really not only a scoundrel but a jerk and cunning. He was very good at using someone to achieve his goals, even though Jack didn't like Giselle, but he felt sorry for her when he knew that she was only used by Leon as a tool to achieve his goals.

Jack's fear of losing Anne was getting bigger. Leon didn't seem to be playing around now. Unbeknownst to Anne, Jack had now asked his men to come to Newcastle upon Tyne to protect them by posing as locals. Currently, there were about 20 people on standby around the coffee shop, keeping them close at hand.

"Right now, focus on Leon, use all means to destroy him. But remember, you have to be careful, that man is now much more cunning than you think, Erick," said Jack quietly while talking to Erick.

"Yes sir, I understand. You don't worry."

"Okay, then I'll hang up first. I don't want Anne to be suspicious. She can't know what we're doing," said Jack again before finally hanging up the call with Erick.

And sure enough, shortly after Jack hung up Erick's call from the kitchen, Anne appeared with a tray of her freshly baked almond cookies.

"Hmm... can I taste it?"

Anne placed her tray of cookies carefully in the display case. "It's for sale, you can try some in the kitchen."

"I don't want the crumbs!" Jack protested loudly.

Anne chuckled. "Come on, this is for the customers. Remember, the customer is king."

"But I'm the real king! Do I need to say that I'm a Jackson Knight hmm .."

Jack's words were stopped because Anne had covered her mouth tightly with both hands.

"Don't mess around, Jack, didn't you say we can't reveal our identities?"
