Chapter 70
70 New Bodyguard
Elena nodded quickly. “Yes.”
“Ok, wait for me. I also want to wash my hands and go to the restroom.”
Elena nodded her head again, answering Jason’s words. Jason, who couldn’t stand it, then rushed out of Elena’s presence and into the men’s toilet, leaving Elena who was nervous for no reason.
Elena unconsciously felt her left chest, the news she had just heard suddenly disturbed her. Even though since this morning, when she left Clarke Enterprise, Elena had vowed never to have anything to do with a Christian Clarke who was so easily angered. The Night King that Elena hated.
“Come on.” Jason’s voice just coming out of the toilet suddenly interrupted Elena’s thoughts.
Elena’s small nod returned to Jason’s answer, with slightly heavy steps Elena walked right behind Jason leaving the fast food restaurant to the motel where they were staying for the next few days.
“Forget about him, Elena. He’s too high for you to chase...don’t step into the abyss that will hurt you.”
***
Four days have almost passed since Christian fired Elena and during those four days Christian did not come into the office, every morning he did leave his house as usual. But it wasn’t the Clarke Enterprise building that became his destination, but the narrow alley in front of the Elena family’s house where Christian stopped. For hours Christian sat in his car doing nothing, he just kept quiet by continuing to watch the activity in the Wilson family’s home and place of business.
.....
Unable to contact Elena, Christian ends up taking this route to meet her. Although every night Christian always curses his stupidity for doing stupid things, but the next morning he still does the same thing. And today Christian’s patience runs out, he has other plans today.
After making sure that his appearance is perfect, Christian slowly steps his foot into the cake shop owned by the Wilson family which is quite busy. The presence of a young man in expensive clothes suddenly made several people who were queuing in front of the Wilson family’s cake shop whisper to each other, talking about Christian’s very unusual presence.
“Can I help you sir?” asked Bianca, Mrs Wilson’s clerk politely to Christian who was standing right next to the first person in line.
Like an angel, Christian smiles sweetly at Bianca. The smile he usually only gave in front of many people when he was attending an important event.

Muller Finance International, Geneva Switzerland.
Jack gripped his hand tightly, he still couldn’t believe the report that Nicholas had just brought before him. A report on the results of Suri’s examination conducted by a psychiatrist that Anne had chosen carefully.
Although not a person who struggles in the medical world, Jack is quite familiar with the terms on the paper.
It was clearly written on the paper that Suri was traumatized by meeting strangers, being in a crowd and decreasing her self-confidence. Three things that Suri should never have experienced, since she was always invited to travel, have formed Suri’s mentality and courage to be at the top level. But right now, all the things that Suri had formed over the years had already been destroyed by the person Suri called a Monster.
“I’ll make sure that bastard dies by my own hands,” said Jack, full of emotion. His cold eyes stared at the paper that was still in his hand.
Nicholas swallowed. “The psychiatrist promised to help Miss Suri recover from her trauma, sir.”
“Even though Suri is recovering, but not completely, she will return to the way she used to be, Nick. Suri will definitely still have the trauma inside of her,” said Jack hoarsely. “I’m still going to miss my sweet cheerful girl, Nick.”
“Don’t talk like that, sir.” Erick, who had just arrived, suddenly joined in the conversation.
Nicholas automatically gave his co-worker a code not to talk nonsense.
But Erick is still Erick, even though Nicholas has given him a warning, he still intends to share the results of the report he just got from Anne. A comprehensive report on Suri which has just been completed.
“Right now, what Miss Suri needs is you, your support. Her biological father and Mrs. Anne, I just received news from Mrs. Anne that the results of Miss Suri’s medical check-up have come out,” said Erick again as he handed the envelope in his hand to Jack. .
Without changing his expression, Jack grabbed the envelope from Erick’s hand and immediately opened it. His eyebrows rose as he read the conclusions on the first page of the report. It is clearly written that Suri is still a virgin, her hymen is still well preserved. This proves that if Christian is telling the truth, when he was going back to Luxembourg yesterday Christian had a chance to talk to Jack one-on-one and said the same thing to him. The heavy weight on Jack’s shoulders slowly eased as he read the report. A glimmer of hope immediately blazed within Jack.
“Make sure only the best doctors and people will handle Suri’s recovery and do everything carefully, lest anyone else finds out about all the therapies that Suri is undergoing,” said Jack hoarsely.
“Yes sir.” Erick and Nicholas answered simultaneously.
Jack took a deep breath. “Then what about Asher? When is the kid coming home?”
“Asher is currently in London to see Mr Aaron Connery and according to schedule he will return to Geneva earlier this week, sir,” Erick replied quickly.
“Asher doesn’t know about Suri, does he?”
“No sir, we haven’t told him the happy news yet.”
Jack smiled. “No, let Asher know if Suri is home when he arrives in Geneva. Don’t talk to him about Suri anything.”
“Yes sir.”
Since nothing else was reported, Erick and Nicholas went back to their respective rooms to continue their work again, leaving Jack still staring at the reports issued by two different people who were dealing with Suri’s trauma.
“Thank God, thank you for keeping my daughter pure from the hands of that bastard,” said Jack hoarsely, emotion gripping him at this moment.
While expressing his gratitude to God for taking care of Suri for the past three years, Jack was startled by the ringing of his cell phone. His smile widened when he saw what people had contacted him at this time.
Her tears immediately exploded when she heard Anne’s cry, who was expressing her gratitude because Suri was still fine. As a woman who had kept her chastity for one man, Anne was so grateful to know that her daughter was still untouched by any man.
“God is still by our side, Jack ... God is still taking good care of our Suri,” sobbed Anne gratefully, staring at Jack’s face which is now on the screen of her cellphone.
Jack wiped his tears, looked at Anne lovingly. “Honey...don’t cry anymore, you are currently in the hospital. Don’t let Suri see you cry, you have to stay strong in front of her.”
Anne nodded slowly, because the doctor who examined Suri called her name. Anne ended the call with Jack.
Jack lifted his face up with his eyes closed, trying to calm himself after crying. Only in front of Anne did Jack cry and for three years he had been crying silently without Anne knowing. Jack feels like a failure as the head of the family because he has not been able to find Suri for years. But all of Jack’s suffering was finally over when his proud son came to bring Suri home, although until now Christian has not told how he found Suri. But Jack doesn’t mind it, he knows that Christian just like himself has the same regrets as him when Suri disappeared.
“Relax dear, as long as Daddy is alive Daddy will take good care of you until the time comes you have to go with the best man who will replace Daddy’s duties for you. Suri Mireya, my dear. Thank you sick for coming back to us, thank you for giving the opportunity to Daddy to take care of you,” Jack said quietly as he fingered the beautiful photo of Suri in his arms when she was seventeenth birthday.
Having managed to control himself, Jack continued his work. Currently, Jack’s focus is on ensuring the safety for Suri in the future after she has finished all the therapy carried out by her best doctors at the hospital that Jack has chosen carefully without outsiders knowing.
Jack’s personal bodyguards this time were those from the best police academy in Geneva, those with above-average martial arts skills. After an hour passed, finally Jack’s choice fell on four young policemen who were the same age as Christian. His smile widens when he reads the awards they have received from the state for the last two years of their careers in the police force.
“Erick, come into my room,” Jack said quietly to Erick over the intercom.
Less than two minutes Erick was standing in front of him.
“Find and call these four young cops for me.” Jack gave the data on the four policemen he had chosen.
Erick frowned, staring at the four young police photos in his hands.
“They are candidates for Suri’s personal bodyguards.”
