Chapter 75 - Ladies’ man

"We were married off by our grandfather five years ago. It was legal and registered."

"Is that so?" Mrs. Potters replied with a raised brow.

Jacob was getting irksome. He looked at Mrs. Potters in the eyes while the old lady did the same as well. For a couple of seconds, they stared at each other as if trying to read what's in their mind. J looked at them one after another then cleared her throat to grab their attention.

"So... what do you do for a living?" Mrs. Potters ask Jacob

Jacob smirk before saying, "I am a surgeon and also the CEO and President of CLP Group of Hospitals that my family owned. We also owned a Pharmaceutical Company. "

"Hmmph... such high profile. You look like a womanizer to me, plus with such a high status I doubt if you didn't have a girlfriend before you found out about your marriage with J."

J chuckled when Mrs. Potters said the word womanizer. She definitely hit the exact word to describe him.

Jacob gave J an antagonizing look that makes J bit her lip and returns her focus to her food.

Jacob straightened his back and said in a serious tone, "With all due respect Mrs. Potters, I think your choice of word is not fitting."

Oh...oh... Mrs. Potters you pissed him off. Thought J.

"Indeed, I enjoy spending time and flirting with women but I don't go beyond that. I don't casually have sex with random girls if that's what you want to hear. So I prefer to call myself a ladies' man, not a womanizer." J blushed hearing what Jacob said. Does he have to be so blunt to prove something? She thought to herself. But that confession had a sudden change of her perspective about this man beside her.

The thought of Jacob being a philanderer irks her, that is probably one of her first impressions of him.

What a relief to find out that he is not.

"Plus... I don't use my status to chase after girls. It will only ruin my family's reputation. In fact, it's the other way around." Jacob said in a proud tone.

J choked on the coffee that she is drinking and thought to herself, 'What a swagger.'

"Anyway's after I found out about my marriage to Jenny, I already renounced my old habit. I only have respect for this marriage now. As I've said I am seriously considering this marriage."

"Hmmm...I see." Mrs. Potters seemed to be convinced so she turned to look at J.

"How's the family treating you J? You know, although he came from a prominent family, I will not tolerate it once I find out that you were mistreated by his family." Mrs. Potters said that as if Jacob is not in front of her.

J was out for word at first. Although Mr. and Mrs. Parker mistreated and judged her during their first meeting, that was just because of a misunderstanding. Besides the whole family treats her well after that. So, she said that she was well treated by the family and welcomed her warmly.

Mrs. Potters and Jacob were satisfied with her reply.

Finally, their breakfast turned interrogation ended.

Jacob prepared to go to the hospital while J and Mrs. Potters were left at the apartment.

Mrs. Potters watched J while washing the dishes. J didn't let Mrs. Potters wash the dishes as she usually did back at the Lodgepole Estate saying that she is her guest and she will not let her guest do the chores at her apartment.
