Love Worth Fighting For

425 Clarke house of Jewel

Christian can only take a deep breath seeing Zwetta being monopolized by Suri who is sad. After dropping Areez and Aldrich at the airport two hours ago, Suri immediately looked for Zwetta and hugged her tightly without a word, since her relationship with Zwetta had improved, Suri had become very close to her.

“Until when are you going to be like this Suri?”

Jack touches Christian’s shoulder gently, warning him not to speak too loudly. But his father’s warning was ignored by Christian, seeing Suri continue to control Zwetta since two hours ago annoyed him. He was not willing to see Zwetta giving his attention to someone else, even if it was Suri.

“But Suri has been dominating Zwetta for hours, Dad. Zwetta has to eat to provide nutrition to our child,” Christian said exasperatedly.

Anne pursed her lips. “Mommy will get some food for Zwetta then.”

“That’s not the concept, Mommy!” Christian sighed impatiently. “Suri has been hogging my wife for hours and I don’t like it.”

Anne chuckled. “Suri is not monopolizing your wife Christ, Suri is just calming herself by hugging Zwetta like that. Your sister is expressing her heart to her sister-in-law, you should be happy to see the closeness of the two of them like this.”

“I know when Suri is sad but does it have to be like this? My wife is pregnant, Mom. She has to eat lots of nutritious food to help our son grow and develop and since Suri came crying two hours ago, my wife hasn’t touched her food at all. The healthy snacks that Jorge has prepared are just a table decoration at this time,” said Christian at length, Christian deliberately raised his voice so that Suri was still lying on Zwetta who was sitting on the special sofa provided for her in the living room.

“I’m still full, that’s why I haven’t touched the snacks provided by Jorge, Christ,” Zwetta suddenly. “Your child also seems to be sleeping, that’s why I don’t feel hungry yet.”

.....

“But...”
“If Zwetta isn’t hungry yet, you can’t force her to eat, Son,” said Jack, laughing. “You’ll only make her feel sick if you force her to eat.”

“But...”

“What your father said was true, dear.” Anne interrupted quietly. “Zwetta is pregnant, not sick. So you don’t have to over treat her like that.”

Jack smiled again. “Listen to your Mommy, Son.”

“You really left everything to Christian, Jack. All over yours you really gave to Christian without a trace.” Anne replied to her husband’s words with harsh sarcasm, Anne was reminding Jack about how Jack’s attitude confused everyone when she was pregnant for the third time. Just like Christian who always wanted to give all the best for Zwetta, at that time Jack also did the same thing. Jack even went so far as to take over Noah’s task of selecting food for Anne at that time.

Jack grinned broadly, looking very happy to be reminded of behavior he had done in his youth decades ago.

“Is what Mommy said true, Dad?” asks Christian suddenly.

Jack cleared his throat. “Daddy is just doing Daddy’s duties as a husband and father-to-be on standby, so there’s nothing wrong with what Daddy has done before.”

“So there’s no problem if I do all that to Zwetta right now, right?”

“Of course there is no problem, Son. It’s just that you need special tricks so you don’t make your wife angry, women who are pregnant have poor emotional stability. That’s why you have to be careful how you act so you don’t make your wife angry,” replied Jack was serious like a teacher giving lessons to his students.

“Will Daddy share those special tricks with me?” Christian asks excitedly.



Jack nodded enthusiastically. “Of course Daddy will.”

“Then teach me right now.” Christian’s eyes darted to his father.

Without opening his mouth, Jack immediately took Christian’s hand and led him to the study which was always closed. As soon as the door to Jack and Christian’s study was closed again, Anne laughed in amusement, she did not expect to see such an incident before her eyes. But on the other hand Anne is very grateful to see Jack and Christian’s current relationship, both of them have forgiven each other and buried past wounds and started everything again from the beginning. Jack even bravely apologized to Christian first, Jack didn’t care about his position as a father. All Jack knows is that he has to be gentle in order to repair the bad relationship that happened between him and his proud son years before.

Not wanting to worry Christian again, Anne decided to go to the kitchen to catch up with Jorge, who was making snacks for Zwetta. Anne chose to find other activities in order to give her two daughters a chance to get to know each other better, Zwetta and Christian’s marriage not only made Christian happy because he was finally able to get the woman he loved so much but also gave immeasurable happiness for Anne. Anne felt like she had gotten a new daughter with the arrival of Zwetta into her family and Anne promised not to differentiate her affection for her daughter-in-law and her three children. For Anne, Zwetta is as important as that of her other children.

“So what do you think of my idea?” asked Suri slowly without breaking her eye contact with Zwetta who had just drank the apple juice that Jorge gave her which was so refreshing.

“Great, I like your idea and to be honest I’d love it if you stayed in Luxembourg so I wouldn’t be lonely,” Zwetta with a smile.

“But I don’t know how to start, Zee. I don’t know where to start, so far I have only followed the instructions given by Asher and to be honest I am very confused about where to start,” said Suri nervously.

Zwetta thinned her lips, after being a good listener for more than two hours Zwetta ventured to convey the idea that was in her head.

“May I make a suggestion?”

Suri looked up again, staring at Zwetta. “Of course you can.”

“Sit properly then,” Zwetta slowly.

Without being ordered twice, Zwetta quickly got up from her sleeping position and immediately sat facing Zwetta seriously. “So what’s your suggestion?”

“Why don’t you take over the Clarke Jewel of House for yourself to raise? Instead of starting a new company from scratch wouldn’t you be better off taking care of one of the obvious Clarke family businesses, huh?”

Suri’s face immediately changed, she looked nervous. “Manage the Clarke family jewelry company?”

“Yes,” Zwetta with an enthusiastic nod. “I once accompanied Christian to go to Paris to arrange a collaboration with one of the most famous jewelry designers in Paris for an exhibition and I feel that you are suitable for this field. Those luxurious jewels will shine even more under your leadership, Suri.”

“Are you sure I can grow the Clarke house of Jewel, Zee? I’m afraid that if I can’t do what everyone expects, I’m afraid that I will actually make the company lose money.”

Zwetta smiled, she slowly took Suri’s hand and squeezed it tightly. “You are a Clarke, you have the blood of a great businessman in your blood. Certainly you will be able to develop the Clarke family’s already famous jewelry business, you want everyone to see you as someone to be reckoned with, right? if that’s what you want then this is it. The time is right, show everyone that you are capable of leading a company like your father and brother.”
