"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

It has been more than a week since Damien returned to the small fishing village where he lived. That means it has been more than a week since he confessed to his grandmother what he had done in the past years.

Since then, Brenda has been acting cold and distant toward him. She was not talking to him. She refuses to look at him or even share a space with him.

Damien could not blame her. After what he had done, it was a surprise that she was not yet pushing him away. That she was still letting him stay at her house. He knew that he deserved worse than that. Brenda could give him any form of punishment and he would willingly receive it.

But Damien knew Brenda wouldn't be mad for long. The fact that she still includes him in meals was proof of that.
