Chapter 95 - A feast

"I thought that the fact that you are forced to this marriage you wouldn't waste an effort for her. I assume that you will only do it for someone you love. Is that right?"

Jacob's expression softens. He already admitted indirectly that he is in love with his wife. If not, then why would he pull out Capricorn's A-Team from an important mission just to protect his wife. He hasn't found out the real identity of his wife yet, Chairman John wondered that if Jacob found out about his wife's real identity and the threats that surround her he might pull out all of Capricorn's team to protect her.

Both the father and son had already calmed down.

Then Jacob expressed in a serious tone, "I would be the one to personally supervise them. I'll meet them one of these days once they are officially pulled out from their current mission."

"Go ahead. And don't ever disturb me in my resting hours again!"

....

The next morning Jacob arrived earlier at Eve's. But before that, he dropped by at Joe's and Lani's to get the supplies that J usually pick up from them with the additional stuff that he promised to bring the kids when he returns.

On her way to Lotus City J called Joe and Lani to say that she is on her way to pick up the supplies only to find out that Jacob had already picked them up an hour ago with additional orders. She assumed that Jacob is already at Eve's now.

He did as he said, he would see her today at Eve's. And he full filled his promise to the kids that he will return with the stuff that they requested.

Thinking about what Jacob said yesterday, she wondered if he would bring that up again today. And if he did, how will she respond? She hopes that he wouldn't.

She drives directly at Eve's not even bothering to hide her sports car from Jacob as he already knew about it.

When she reached the orphanage, she heard the voices of the kids cheering. It sounds like they were having a great time in the backyard. She wonders what could they be doing? Is Jacob with them?

She walked inside the mansion, she found no one inside. She peeked at the window, the boys were playing football with Jacob while the girls surround them watching and cheering.

Jacob seemed to be having fun with the kids. Does he really like kids? J wondered. Then he heard someone cleared her throat behind her. She turned around to see Ms. Eve.

"You're here. The kids are having fun. Why don't you help me prepare lunch at the kitchen?" Ms. Eve said smiling at J.

J smiled back and nodded. She then followed her to the kitchen.

Ms. Eve and some of the helpers were busy preparing food. J noticed the amount of food that they are preparing. It is more than usual.

"Hmm... are we going to have a feast?" J said amused.

"Yes, we are. Dr. Jacob wanted to. He bought all this. He said he wanted to treat the kids for a special lunch since he won't be able to stay until dinner." Ms. Eve said enthusiastically thou with a tone of regret at the end.

"Is that so? Since when did he arrive?" J asked.
