Chapter 739 - The Last Generation



Jack pushed the file back toward the lawyer slowly. "Sorry, sir, I, as the husband of Marianne, refuse the property belonging to the Ganke family given to her. Since my wife was divorced with Leon at that time, she no longer has any relationship with the Ganke family. So legally, she cannot accept property that is not her right. After all, I am capable enough to make my wife live prosperously until we grow old together. So sorry, I can\'t accept it."

"But Master, this is Lord Ganke\'s last message before he..."

"I know Leon\'s good intentions, but sorry, I have the right to refuse." Jack immediately cut Bobby\'s words quickly. "If you want to just take the Ganke family property for you or donate it to an organization in need, I once again reiterate not to associate my wife with the Ganke family again. Since she is the current Mrs. Clarke, I hope you understand what I\'m saying."

After saying that, Jack then left Bobby\'s office without saying goodbye, ignoring Bobby, who still called out his name.

This morning, when Jack was at the office, he received word from Erick who said that Leonardo Ganke had died by suicide and that Ganke\'s family wanted to meet with Anne to read the will that Leon had written for her. That was why Jack immediately went to Germany to meet the Ganke family\'s lawyer, who already held Leon\'s will. In that letter, Leon said that Anne would be the heir to all of the Ganke family\'s property.

Of course this made Jack angry. He felt humiliated by Leon, who just thought that he was unable to provide for Anne. Therefore, he immediately went to Germany without thinking and asked Erick to block news of Leon\'s death from Anne. Jack didn\'t want her to be sad again. Even though Leon was the one who had hurt her deeply, Jack knew that Leon was Anne\'s first unrequited love. Because of that, Jack didn\'t want Anne to be sad anymore. After the departure of Linda and Paul, which made Anne drop, Jack didn\'t want Anne to have another burden on her mind, especially when they were trying to get back to normal life, after all the crying and sadness that had happened so far.

With the hotel driver, Jack went to a fairly old cemetery. His steps stopped at a complex that contained a new tomb that had a tombstone inscribed with the name of Leonardo Ganke.

Jack slowly lowered his sunglasses and stood for a long time in front of Leon\'s new grave. Because it was only yesterday afternoon that Leon was buried in his family\'s cemetery. Jack looked around at the other tombstones. There were the names of both Leon\'s parents and the previous generation until finally Jack\'s gaze stopped at the tombstone of Chaterine Ganke which looked very well preserved.

"Hi Madam, nice to meet you. I\'m Jackson Knight Clarke, Marianne\'s husband whom you once set up with your grandson, Leon. Now Anne and I are very happy, we also have a cute child. Honestly, I\'m very lucky because your grandson divorced Anne at that time, because if Leon had made Anne happy back then, maybe I would never be this happy. A little rude, indeed, but it is the truth. I know you really like my wife that\'s why I came to pay tribute to you as well as to say thank you because you are very good to my wife. And you know, Madam, now that your grandson, Leon, is dead, as he decided to end his life while in a mental hospital in Switzerland. I don\'t know what was in Leon\'s mind when he decided to end his life. I\'m sorry for the choice your grandson made and I\'m a little upset about his final will for my wife. I\'m not a rich man, but believe me, I have the ability to make my own wife happy. That\'s why I refuse the will that your grandson gave to my wife. I hope up there you can say this to Leon." Jack took a deep breath and ended his words to Chaterine Ganke and returned his focus to Leon\'s grave, which was next to the grave of his grandmother as the last generation of the Ganke family.

"I appreciate your good intentions to my wife, but please, sorry, I can\'t accept it. As a husband, I have the right to refuse any gift to my wife, including money from your family. I hope you can rest easy up there. I\'ve told your lawyer to take care of the Ganke family\'s inheritance, I hope he has a wise way to manage your family\'s inheritance. From the bottom of my heart, I really thank you for making Anne come to me. Don\'t worry, Anne and I have forgiven all your actions so far, so you can rest easy on God\'s side and reunite with Steffi again. See you later, Leonardo Ganke." Jack placed a red rose on Leon\'s tombstone. To be honest, Jack still regretted Leon\'s decision to end his life. But on the other hand, he believed that what happened to Leon had become his destiny arranged by God.

With firm steps, Jack walked out of the Ganke family cemetery. He could faintly hear the conversations of other cemetery visitors who were talking about the tragic fate of the Ganke family which ended in its fourth generation, Leonardo Ganke.

The women regretted Leon\'s decision to choose to end his own life, even though Leon is a very handsome and rich man. It was very easy for him to get any woman to be his wife, who would give birth to his children.

Jack just thinned his lips hearing the women\'s conversation. He preferred to put his sunglasses back on his sharp nose and rushed off to the car belonging to the hotel where he was staying to immediately leave the tomb.

"Go straight to the hotel again. After that, take me to the airport," said Jack quietly when he was in the car.

"Yes sir."

Not long after that, the car was speeding down the highway leaving the cemetery. On the way to the hotel, Jack accidentally watched the news broadcast from the small monitor in front of him.

Jack\'s lips widened when he saw Bobby Kris announce the heirs of the Ganke family were in front of the curious mass media who wanted to know who was the lucky person to get all the wealth and assets of the Ganke family who had no successors.

"Hopefully with this you and the rest of your family can rest easy up there, Leon," Jack said quietly when Bobby Kris finished showing Ganke Foundation, an organization who will get all the wealth of the Ganke family.

Ganke Foundation was made by Bobby at the last moments before the interview started. Bobby decided to follow Jack\'s advice by channeling all of the Ganke family\'s possessions to people in need.

"See you in another life, Leon." Jack was talking to himself again as he looked at Leon\'s photo on the monitor.
