I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 275 - Catching The Crab

Jack who had just finished his dinner with Anne was surprised by a message from Erick saying that Aaron and his assistant Daniel were already at his house. The two men had come looking for Anne, who, of course, was not at Jack\'s house at the moment, because she was out to dinner with Jack.

Anne raised one eyebrow. "Why are you laughing to yourself? Anything funny?" Anne asked very curiously. She even tiptoed trying to see the cell phone that was being held by Jack.

In a quick motion, Jack immediately lifted his cell phone higher into the air using his left hand, while he used his right hand to hold Anne\'s head.

"Stop this impolite act of yours, Anne," he said quickly.

"What impolite? I was only asking what you were looking at, not doing anything obscene," replied Anne defensively.

Tap!

"Ouch!!!" Anne screamed in pain as Jack flicked her forehead pretty hard.

"That\'s the same, Anne, I\'m taking care of some important things related to the office. And I can\'t show it to you because you\'re not my employee, you\'re an employee of Ganke Inc. Production. So you can\'t see the data from my company, because that would be like you\'re spying on my company," said Jack quickly without guilt. He then put his cell phone back into his pocket and walked towards the door.

Anne, who was still in pain from being hit on the forehead by Jack, was grumbling. "Who wants to spy on you, Jack? That\'s no use to me," she said in irritation as she continued to follow in the footsteps of Jack, who was already in front of his car in front of the restaurant.

As soon as Anne finished fastening her seat belt, Jack immediately stepped on the gas pedal. He drove his luxury car in the opposite direction of his house which was also in the same direction as Anne\'s new apartment. Jack deliberately left because he wanted to avoid Aaron. He didn\'t want to see Aaron tonight. Because he had already decided that he would spend the night with Anne, because tonight was exactly 912.5 days he knew Anne. That was why Jack wanted to celebrate his big day alone with Anne without being disturbed by anyone. He had even prepared a gift for Anne, a gift that would bind his relationship with Anne into a more serious one.

Anne, who was still upset because Jack had hit her on the head, chose to play an offline games that were not connected to the internet, because Jack had disabled access on her cell phone to the internet, so that no one can contact or send messages to Anne. As a result, she couldn\'t play online games either. She could only play offline games to reduce boredom. She wasn\'t aware of the destination that Jack was taking her. There wasn\'t the slightest bit of worry or fear from Anne, as she had a lot of faith in Jack.

An hour and fifty minutes had passed, during which time there was no conversation between Jack and Anne. Jack was very focused on driving his car, while Anne was still engrossed in her own world, playing a match puzzle game on her cell phone, a game that she said really tested her brain balance. Jack stopped the car when he reached Walton-on-The-Naze, Essex. It was a beach that was suitable for family vacation which was located in the Essex area. It had soft sand, which visitors usually use to build sand castles on this golden sandy beach. Along the pier, visitors could also fish and enjoy the view of the Naze Tower, which had been around since 1720.

"Come on down," said Jack quietly, surprising Anne, who was still focused on her cell phone.

As soon as she heard Jack\'s voice, Anne immediately lifted her downcast face. She seemed to have just been pulled into the real world by Jack after being immersed in her own world.

"Where are we, Jack?"

Jack cracked a smile. "You\'ll find out for yourself, come on out. I want to take you somewhere interesting."

Without asking any further, Anne followed Jack\'s orders. She slowly unbuckled her seatbelt and put her cell phone on the car seat subconsciously. Anne seemed to be used to doing things that had been ordered by Jack before, such as not receiving incoming calls when she was alone with Jack or playing on the cell phone. And since Jack had made her cell phone useless because she didn\'t have an internet connection, Anne chose to leave it in the car instead.

The sound of waves that were not too big made Anne finally realize that she was currently on the beach, Anne immediately took off her high heels and ran towards the sand past Jack, who was walking calmly towards the pier.

"Aaaaaah! The beach...!!!!!!" Anne screamed with joy as she ran, her hands were raised in the air with each of the high heels still in her palms.

Anne\'s screams sounded very clear because there was no one in the place except the lifeguard that Jack had contacted earlier. Jack smiled when he saw Anne running towards the water after putting her high heels on the sand. Anne played in the water like a child, running after crabs and several other small animals, competing with the waves that would bring the animals back into the sea.

"Anne, don\'t go too far!!" Jack shouted loudly, reminding Anne not to go too far. Even though the beach was currently quiet, Jack didn\'t want to take any risk. He must remain alert to other possibilities that might occur. Even though the lifeguard said that the beach had been sterilized from other visitors, Jack still maintained his vigilance.

"I know!!!" Anne shouted. She was still running after the crab she wanted to catch and released again after that. A completely useless activity, but Anne liked it. Doing stupid things she could never do when she was a kid.

Jack chose to sit on the sand, right beside Anne\'s high heels. He loved hearing Anne\'s loose, carefree laugh, a laugh that Jack could never see when Anne was in town. Seeing another side of Anne like that made Jack very happy. Anne looked more beautiful with her laugh, especially the dress she was wearing looked more beautiful on her body as she was exposed to the sea breeze, coupled with her running here and there with enthusiasm.

"You stupid girl, she can have this fun just playing with crabs. This afternoon when I bought her an expensive apartment she wasn\'t this happy," said Jack quietly, his eyes didn\'t? leave Anne. He watched every move that Anne made. Every now and then, he smiled when she saw the stupidity of Anne, who screamed in pain when her hands were caught the by crab claws, but instead of stopping, Anne did it again. She caught and released the crab again.

After running here and there for more than twenty minutes, Anne finally looked tired. She walked over to Jack, who had been sitting there from the start. Anne\'s sweat was pouring down her forehead, neck, and all over her body, Anne had so much fun tonight.

"Drink and dry your sweat," Jack said quietly as he handed her a bottle of mineral water and a small towel.

Anne narrowed her eyes as she looked at the things Jack was giving her. "When did you bring this? Why didn\'t I see them?" She asked in confusion.

"From the start I had intended to take you to the beach after dinner, that\'s why I prepared a water bottle and this small towel which I actually wanted to use to wash our feet when we finished walking on the beach. But it seems the things I brought has another function at the moment," answered Jack flatly, sarcastically quipping Anne who was playing alone.

Anne widened her smile so that her white teeth were clearly visible. She then grabbed the bottle of mineral water from Jack\'s hand and drank its contents very quickly. Anne was so thirsty that she didn\'t care when a trickle of water that didn\'t enter her mouth ran down her neck towards her chest. Seeing that, Jack swallowed hard. He quickly got up from the sand and immediately wrapped his arms around Anne\'s waist, which suddenly made Anne, who was still drinking water, startled and almost choked.

"Stupid girl," Jack said quietly. His hand, which was still holding the small towel, immediately moved towards Anne\'s neck and chest, which were wet with sweat and drinking water.
