"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.

"An angel in disguise, or shall I say a devil in disguise?" Then his face turned grave as he gazed at her face. "Who are you?"

"None of your fucking business!" Belle hissed.

"Finally!" If she was startled when Matias suddenly exclaimed, she managed not to show it.

"She spoke! So you are not a mute assassin after all!" Matias said sarcastically with pride to himself for making Belle speak. Then he turned serious again as his face inched closer to her. His change of demeanor makes Belle think that he is bipolar.

"A voice and face of an angel but a tongue of a devil. I like that," Matias said as he licked his lower lip. "But dear, it is my business to know you since you tried to take my life," He said then he took a few steps backward making Belle alert.

His actions and reactions are a bit unexpected so Belle wanted to be ready in case he made some unexpected attack against her.
