"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

"Where do you want me to send this, Miss?" Arthur asked J pointing at the box where J had put back the bow.

J contemplated for a moment whether to keep it in Evergreen Villa or to Lodgepole Estate where all of her bow collections were hidden.

In the end, she decided that it is better to keep it at Lodgepole because the sight of it in Evergreen Villa might irk Jacob.

"Hmm...just keep it for the meantime. I'll take it with me at Lodgepole Estate." She replied.

"Okay." Arthur nodded his head. That time, his phone rings. He pulled it out from his pocket and found that it was Jacob who was calling him.

He glanced at J first before he excused himself in front of J. He knew that if J finds out that it was Jacob who is calling him, she will start to worry.

Arthur walked a couple of feet away from J. When he was sure that he was at a distance and that J could not hear him, he answered the call.
