"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.

"About Damien?" Nora asked indifferently as if she doesn't care about the name she mentioned or was not even familiar with it. She looked up and saw her mother nod her head while her father was busy eating pretending that he was not listening.

"Yeah," Nora nodded her head, and then she continued eating.

"So?" J raised a brow. With what Timothy reported to her about what Damien was currently doing, she wanted to know what her daughter had to say about it.

Nora pursed her lips. "So what? It's not as if he could surprise us anymore. He had been surprising us in the past couple of months in a lot of different ways," She said with a touch of slight sarcasm in her voice.

But Jacob was hearing another tone in her voice. "Are we praising him now?" He said as he looked at his daughter through his eyelashes.

Nora looked up with her eyes wide in disbelief. "Dad, that's not even praise. Did you not hear the sarcasm?"
