"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

The next morning, Elijah found himself standing at the doorsteps of the Hayes' residence. He sighed in relief when he didn't see Leo's car in the garage. Not that he is afraid to face him again considering that Leo seemed to have given his blessing yesterday, though not directly. But for some reason, Elijah feels awkward being in the same space as Leo. Maybe it was because he is in love with his daughter. It will probably take time for him to get used to it.

Elijah raised his hand to knock on the door. He heard an instant answer from inside the house coming from Diana and then it was followed by footsteps. When the door opened, Diana smiled as if she had already known that it was Elijah who was knocking on their door and that she had already expected it.

But Elijah noticed the dark circles under Diana's eyes. It seemed that she had a long sleepless night and that got him worried. Not just about Diana but about Sadie as well.
