"Being married to you means the world to me. Don't worry about my family, they knew, and they were much eager to protect you. I don't care if my life would be in danger as long as you are safe. My life is not normal without you in it. Ah… what was the last one?" Jacob stopped and rubbed his chin trying to remember J's last word before he interfered.

"Ah! Right!" Jacob's eyes gleamed when he seemed to remember. "I was so glad that your grandfather dragged me into this messy and complicated life of yours. Because if he didn't, I would be forcing myself into your life, even if you don't want to."

"Was I able to answer all your questions, Mrs. Jacob Parker?" Jacob asked, emphasizing how he addresses J as Mrs. Jacob Parker indicating that whoever she is, she would still be his wife.

At the age of 10, J's parents died in an ambush leaving her in the care of her grandfather who years later sent her away along with her best friend to hide her and her identity from those who would try to kill her after her parents.

20 years later, a lot of things had already happened. Her grandfather died. She is back in the country for good though still hiding her identity. Everything was peaceful until a man came claiming her as his wife.

Since then, her peaceful life flipped upside down. People who want her dead found her but his so-called husband never left her. He was even willing to kill and be killed just to protect her.

The Society's Heiress

"James, find out Alex Ogden's schedule for today," Jacob said after contemplating. He was in his office on the 10th floor of CLP Hospital. He was just done with his morning rounds with his patients and James used to be following him around.

"Are you planning to pay him a visit?" James inquired.

"Yes, not that I want to. But my wife keeps on insisting. I don't want her to keep on worrying about this. I hope Alex Ogden is a bit more sensible than his grandfather."

After just ten minutes, James returned with Alex Ogden's schedule in his hands. "Alex Ogden's schedule is quite full today but he still has time to visit Rendezvous at the end of the day."

"Thank you, James, you are as efficient as ever." Jacob smiled at James' efficiency.

James chuckled. "Do you want me to call an agent or two for backup?"

"No need. I have someone in mind."
