Chapter 105 - Strange Fate

Jacob inhaled her unique scent then sigh, "Honey... what am I to do now without you." Jacob was too afraid to lose her. Not wanting anyone to lay an eye on her. Possessive as it may seem but it is more than that, she loves this woman. They may be unperfect with each other but he will never let her go. He would do anything to make her fall in love with her.

But what he didn't know is that he already did. Strange how she planned to take another road to avoid it but, in the end, she met him on that road. It is true that fate doesn't care about your plans. It is terrible that she cannot escape it. But thou fate has already knocked her door, she's just not yet ready to answer it.

"I-I should get changed...." J stuttered when she said that. Although she doesn't want that warm sensation to end yet she has to stop there to avoid getting drowned.

Jacob loosened her, he gave her a gentle smile before he finally let her go.

When she got into bed, Jacob pulled her close to him and let her rest in his arms. Which is unusual because he would usually wait for her to sleep before he would secretly pull her close to him until he falls asleep. J looked at Jacob's closed eyelids. This handsome husband of hers is making her heart fall out of place in every second she is with him. She wrapped her arms around his waist which made Jacob tightened his embrace to her.

The next morning, she came to her duty at the hospital, then after her shift, she went back to her apartment to prepare herself for her appointment with Mark Sloane. She will just inform Jacob that she cannot eat dinner at home and that she will be late later to avoid more questions.

Their meeting place is in a private room of a five-star restaurant. When she arrived, she approached the girl in the reception and said with a gentle smile, "Hi, is there a reservation made by Mr. Lance Kho? I'm Miss J."

The receptionist immediately recognized the names that were mentioned and delightedly replied, "Oh... yes Miss J. Mr. Sloane is already waiting for you. Please follow me."

J followed the receptionist as she leads her to the private room where Mark Sloane is waiting.

Although the five-star restaurant is known to be very diligent with the confidentiality of their costumers, Lance made the reservation to make sure that the meeting between Mark Sloane and Miss J will not look suspicious and will not be given an evil connotation by the staffs and onlookers inside the restaurant. Lance made it a point that Jenny Do's name will not be brought up to keep her identity protected.

And knowing the reputation of Mark Sloane in the industry of politics, no one will dare make a rumor against him.

Entering the private room, a man wearing a light blue dress shirt that is folded until the elbow tucked in black slacks immediately stood up upon seeing J.

J waited for the receptionist to leave the room before she walked with a dignified aura towards the table and sat in front of Mark Sloane. She looked at the man in front of him. This is the first time that she had a close up look at him because the first time they met, she avoided looking in his direction to avoid suspicion.
