I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 90 - Ireland

"Have everyone gathered, Professor?" Asked Leon quickly while glancing at the students who had gathered. He tried to find Anne that he had missed for the past two days.

"Looks like everything is ready sir. Earlier my students have already recorded one by one again and the amount is in accordance with the number listed on the list of participants for this vacation, sir," replied Professor Gilbert quickly.

"It\'s great then, so we can go straight to the airport right now, Professor," said Leon with a broad smile.

"Yes, sir, but before that we will conduct a documentation session first to be included on the campus site as an annual activity," replied Professor Gilbert kindly.

"Okay, then we\'ll take pictures first," said Leon again.

Shortly thereafter, Professor Gilbert ordered several students to notify their friends to gather because they would do the documentation section first before leaving for the airport. The prettiest girls in each direction were seen showing each other\'s beauty using their best make-up and clothes. They also posed at the front next to Professor Gilbert, so that their faces were clearly visible on the campus website page. Edward, who usually never takes pictures, seemed to give in and took a photo with the others. He stood in the second row right behind Professor Gilbert beside his subordinates, who looked happy because they were going on vacation in Ireland.

After the photo session was over, all the students\' attention was diverted to the two female students who were walking casually from the cafeteria. They seemed to be enjoying the ice cream in their right hands while laughing together towards the parking area.

"Anne," Edward hissed softly when he managed to recognize the two female students who were walking together in the field.

Leon, who also recognized Anne, immediately gave an expression that was no less shocked than Edward.

"Didn\'t the two of them also participate in yesterday\'s performance, Professor? Then why are they now walking to the parking area instead of gathering with us here?" Leon asked coldly, Steffi, who was in a photo session with other students, didn\'t hear what her husband said.

"Oh yeah, Marianne and Belinda decided not to take part in this vacation because they have to work. As a lecturer, I can\'t force my will on the students if they have other activities that they can\'t leave behind, especially if it\'s related to their work. As students, they also work part-time in their respective workplaces, so I give permission to them not to participate in this vacation, sir," Professor Gilbert replied quickly with a smile.

Hearing the professor\'s words disappointed Leon. His intention to approach Anne again when they were in Ireland finally vanished. Not only was Leon disappointed, but Edward looked very upset when he found out that Austin was lied to by Gabriela. The reason was when Austin asked whether all the students from the fashion design department were joining or not, Gabriella was just talking so she didn\'t know that Anne actually didn\'t participate. The ones who knew from the start who didn\'t participate and who did were Professor Gilbert, and Edward regretted his negligence not to ask the professor.

Because the photo session was over, finally Professor Gilbert asked the students to get on their respective buses that would take them to the airport, as well as Leon and Steffi who joined the students and Professor Gilbert. When the bus group passed the exit, it was clear that Anne was standing in the parking area with Linda. They were still finishing their ice cream while chatting in front of Anne\'s car. Edward didn\'t take his eyes away from what he could clearly see. This morning Anne was wearing jeans that had several tears on the knees and front calves, making her look more swag. Anne\'s appearance looked even more perfect because of the oversized white t-shirt that gave her perfect appearance, not to mention her ponytail that was tied up carelessly. For some reason, in this style, Anne looked even more attractive to Edward. Edward wasn\'t the only one who was amazed by Anne\'s dress style. Several other students also gave good comments on Anne\'s appearance this time.

"I never thought that Anne could swag at all."

"You\'re right, she is very different from other girls who are competing in fancy clothes. I think that Anne\'s style is much cooler than other girls."

"That\'s right, isn\'t it? I\'m the only one who says that Anne is different. Now you guys admire her right now, don\'t you?"

" I thought the prettiest girls were girls like Isabel and Gabriella, but now they actually look nothing compared to Marianne who dresses simply but is very charismatic."

" I\'m sorry that Anne didn\'t go on vacation, if she joined this event it would be more fun."

" Hahahahha you\'re right, a pleasant place will be even more fun if you add a beautiful girl."

Hearing the words of the students made Edward\'s blood boil. He didn\'t like Anne to be spoken about in such a frontal style which he found to be outrageous. Because he didn\'t want to make trouble, Edward finally chose to get up and grab the bag in the seat next to him. He then walked towards the front where Professor Gilbert was sitting with Leon and his wife, right behind the driver.

"What are you doing Edward, sit in your seat, the bus will leave soon," said Professor Gilbert quietly.

"I want ..."

"Well, if you want to move your seat, it\'s okay, sit next to me," said Professor Gilbert, cutting back Edward\'s words as he grabbed Edward\'s hand and made him sit right in the empty chair next to him.

Edward finally canceled his intention to get off the bus. He chose to go to Ireland anyway because he wanted to give a little lesson to the students who had previously talked about Anne in the back seats. Not long after, the three big buses finally left the campus area towards the main road after being assisted by security personnel to leave the campus area to get to the airport.

The buses which were previously detained and not allowed to leave the campus were now allowed to leave, including Anne\'s car, which was also stuck in the parking area.

"Finally we can get out of the campus too," said Linda irritably, looking at the three buses carrying their friends to the airport.

"Never mind, don\'t talk about it again, Linda, the important thing is that now we can get out of the parking area. Besides, what the security did was right, Linda, we have to wait for the big car to leave the campus area first, otherwise we will have trouble getting out," Anne replied quietly, trying to calm Linda, who had been grumpy.

"Ah you\'re too kind Anne, we should have been able to get out earlier. Those buses were waiting for a long time in front of the lobby, while we were already in the parking area and we only had to leave. Why did we have to wait for the cars to get out first? That was a waste of time," Linda said curtly.

Anne just smiled at Linda\'s chatter. Actually she was also annoyed because she had to wait a long time in the hot parking area. However, because the security guards didn\'t just hold back the car, Anne finally accepted it sincerely, even though what Linda said was true. The reason was that they waited for more than twenty minutes in the parking area until the three big buses left the campus area first. Anne then sped her car to go to the flower shop. Starting today, Linda will work at the flower shop to become her employee. Linda finally resigned from her place of work because she felt that the regulations in the restaurant were getting ridiculous. It was clear that she worked at the restaurant as a part-time employee due to college, but it turned out that the new manager at the restaurant obliged her to come every Saturday and Sunday. Meanwhile, Linda had used the weekend to rest and do her assignments as a student. For that reason, Linda finally resigned from the restaurant where she worked for the last three months and accepted Anne\'s offer to work in the flower shop.

After driving for nearly forty-five minutes, Anne finally arrived at the flower shop. Linda, who was already holding the key to the flower shop, got out of the car first. While Anne was still tidying up her bag first, she also checked her second cell phone which was specifically for her flower shop. When she was about to get out of the car, Anne was startled by Linda who suddenly got back into the car in fear.

"What\'s wrong?" Asked Anne in confusion when she saw Linda was in panic and fear.

"There were lots of big men in front of the shop, Anne. They looked angry when I was going to open the door earlier," said Linda gasping because she just ran from the shop.

Hearing Linda\'s words made her curious. She then took off her seat belt and got out of the car to find out who these big men Linda had been talking about.

"Who are you? Why are you standing in front of my flower shop like this?" Asked Anne slowly, trying to be brave.

"Should you be this angry with your customer, Miss?" asked someone back to Anne.

To be continued.
