Chapter 655 - Deepest Regret

< Berlin\'s, Germany 3 AM >

Since reading an article that reviewed the life of Jackson Knight Clarke and his family, Leon had not been able to sleep. Seeing the handsome faces of his ex-wife\'s son and Jack made Leon really nervous, especially when he saw Anne\'s stomach which was already very large. Leon was really very jealous of the happiness that Jack felt right now, living with his son and his very beautiful wife.

"I should be the one in this photo, you should have given birth to my children, Anne, not the children of this jerk," Leon said softly as he touched the beautiful photo of Anne smiling while holding her growing belly.

Since Giselle decided to work alone, Leon had finally returned to Berlin. He returned to focus on taking care of Ganke Inc. Production, which began to stabilize again after experiencing problems last year. For five months the owner was really paying attention to Ganke Inc. Production, experiencing very rapid progress. Leon decided not to follow Giselle\'s advice, who at that time proposed to kidnap Anne to be separated from Jack, but because Leon didn\'t want to hurt Anne, he finally rejected Giselle\'s suggestion, so the collaboration he just made with Giselle ended.

Leon\'s thoughts were still on Jack and Anne who were happily waiting for their newest family member to arrive.

"Why didn\'t I believe in you, Grandma? If only at that time I believed everything you said that Anne was a good girl who would make me happy. Why was I so stupid at that time that I could be fooled by Steffi\'s fake mask? She\'s an ungrateful woman who was willing to hurt Anne the woman who had become her helper for money and good name. God, can\'t you turn back time to ten years ago? I promise I will be a good husband to Anne, God. I promise You... return her to me, God. Make her my wife again, that\'s all I want. I don\'t want anything else, I really can\'t live without Anne. I beg You, God, please turn back time to 10 years ago, I promise you I will never do anything bad again. I will be a very obedient man to You..but give Anne back to me, Lord." Leon spoke unconsciously.

Seeing the happiness of his ex-wife, the woman he once insulted and abused every time they met, he now loved her very much. Leon still clearly remembered how he behaved when he left Anne on their wedding night ten years ago. Tears ran down her face at that time, Leon still remembered.

Bang!

Leon hit the night light with his left hand, remembering what he had done to Anne that night made Leon very sorry. Knowing that Anne was still a virgin when she married Jack made Leon\'s regretted it even greater. He did not expect that the woman he divorced was still untouched by any man.

Because he was too annoyed cursing his stupidity in the past, Leon finally fell asleep on the carpet where he was currently sitting, around where he was lying there were scattered shards of the night lamp that he hit. Leon continued to mention Anne\'s name, the name of the woman he had wasted. The beautiful and rare diamond in his hand he threw away arrogantly for the rusty iron that was eating away at him for the wealth that he had.

< Berlin, 10 years ago >

At that time, the spring sun was shining beautifully in the Berlin sky, all the residents of this beautiful city were busy with their respective activities, including an elegant and respectable woman named Catherine Ganke. Being a widow since her son was 5 years old and not remarrying after that made Catherine Ganke respected by many people. Even though she was not young anymore, her beauty had not faded at all. Catherine Ganke was an art lover, particularly in painting and music. The woman even had expensive paintings in her luxurious house which she currently lived in with her beloved grandson, Leonardo Ganke, whose parents died as a child in a plane crash.

Catherine Ganke pampered her grandson very much. Almost all of Leon\'s wishes since childhood had always been fulfilled by the woman. Even though sometimes Leon\'s wishes didn\'t make sense, but because of his relationship and wealth, Catherine Ganke was able to make whatever his grandson wanted to come true. At that time, Catherine did not realize that what she had done was wrong. She forgot that the way she spoiled little Leon would make the boy grow up to be a proud and arrogant man. Catherine only realized that her upbringing was wrong when Leon started growing up. Even though Leon had led the family company well, he still had another side that Catherine hated. Leon was used to sleep with different partners almost every night.

That morning, Catherine Ganke had just gotten out of her car in front of a museum. After a fight with her grandson, calming herself down in the museum was the way she had always been for the past few years.

"Do I need to accompany you, Madam?" asked Bobby, Mrs. Chaterine Ganke\'s assistant and personal chauffeur.

"No, you stay here, Bobby. I\'ll be in there for a long time," said Catherine Ganke hoarsely.

"Yes ma\'am."

It didn\'t take long for Catherine Ganke to finally step into the painting museum in front of her, the museum she was going to visit was one that she rarely visited because it was far from her home. But somehow this morning, Catherine\'s desire to come to the museum felt as if someone had whispered an order to come to the museum, which was now firmly established in the future. When Chaterine was about to step back, her attention was suddenly stolen by a girl with thick glasses who was feeding several stray cats in the park around the museum. The girl was even seen petting a few kittens so that the mother would eat first. Seeing this sight made Catherine smile. She had not seen anyone for a long time to feed a stray cat.

"Good girl," said Catherine softly praising the bespectacled girl who was now walking towards the museum through the side street.

Because she didn\'t want to waste her time, she finally continued her steps into the museum. Chaterine Ganke chose to go to the museum this early so that when she was enjoying the paintings hanging in the museum no one would disturb her. And what Catherine did was right, because she was the only visitor to the museum that morning. In such a lonely state, she could freely enjoy the beautiful paintings of high artistic value alone.

Cough…

Cough…

Chaterine suddenly coughed, she then tried to find drinking water in the bag she was carrying. But unfortunately the bottle of drinking water in her bag was empty. She forgot to buy a new one. Holding her sore throat, Chaterine tried to find the vending machine around where she was standing to buy a drink, but unfortunately the vending machine closest to her didn\'t sell water. Only the row of soft drinks and other drinks was shown in the vending machine. In a very uncomfortable situation, Chaterine Ganke tried to go outside to get a drink. But when she was about to step out of the museum, someone suddenly gave her a bottle of mineral water that was still sealed.

"Please drink this, Madam," said a girl gently.

Chaterine Ganke slowly lifted her face and turned to the kind girl who was giving her a drink. Her eyes widened when she saw the girl who was smiling at her was the girl with thick glasses who she had previously seen feeding a stray cat outside.

"Thank you, Miss," said Catherine Ganke sincerely.

The bespectacled girl shook her head. "Don\'t call me miss, just Marianne. You can just call me Anne, Madam."
