"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

Jacob's fears were evident in his face that J eventually noticed it even when her eyes were just half-open. "Hey..." She said, reaching out to touch his face.

When she had fully opened her eyes, she was startled when Jacob engulfed her in his embrace tightly. She was flustered at first but later on returned the hug even tighter thinking that it would help ease his fear.

She knows that Alex Ogden might bring out the topic of her leaving Jacob for him again. She knows that it was what Jacob fears but she didn't expect that it could be worse than that.

She stroked his back with her palm and whispered words to his ear. "Hey, I'm here. I won't leave you."

Hearing those words, Jacob tightened his arms around her even more. "I know. And you are not going anywhere. I won't allow that."

J could sense the gravity of the situation based on Jacob's voice.
