Chapter 118 - I had my ways

After a couple of minutes, he arrived with two bowls of hot seafood chowder. He gave him a smile then they ate the food that Jacob prepared for them. She felt recharged. The last time she ate was during lunch at the hospital. She hadn't had a chance to have a snack or dinner. Probably Jacob too.

"Can I take a shower?" J asked Jacob after finishing the food to which Jacob nod his head then showed her the bathroom.

"You can search my closet, you'll surely find something to wear. Tomorrow I'll ask someone to get your clothes from the apartment." J nodded in response.

After almost thirty minutes J walked out of the bathroom feeling a little conscious. She only found an oversized long-sleeved polo and boxer shorts to wear.

Jacob looked at her affectionately which made J blushed.

"What? I can't find your pants. This is better than wearing nothing." J said feeling uncomfortable under the gaze of Jacob.

Jacob smiled. Of course, she wouldn't find any because except for the pants that he is wearing he brought all his pants in J's apartment.

"Come on. Let's sleep." Jacob said then he pulled out the blanket and gestured her to lie on the other side of the bed.

J was lying in Jacob's arm close to his chest while Jacob's arms were wrapped around her soft body. J is playing a small part of the blanket that's covering them with her fingers. She can't sleep. Probably because of the long hours that she had been asleep due to the drugs.

"You can't sleep?" she was startled to hear Jacob ask her. She thought he was asleep.

"Hmm... did I wake you up?" J looked up and stared at the handsome face of her husband.

"No... I was awake." Jacob opened his eyes and looked at her. "Is there something bothering you?"

J blushed when their eyes met. Feeling embarrassed she looked down on his chest. Jacob's lips curled upwards when he saw her flushed face.

"How did you find me?" J asked out of nowhere.

"There's the CCTV camera. The person who abducted you were quite famous. And I know to whom they worked for." Jacob replied as he closed his eyes.

"How did you get me?" J asked again after a couple of minutes. Jacob didn't reply so she looked up at him and thought that he fell asleep but was startled to hear him say, "I had my ways."

"Oh..." was her only reply. She didn't ask any more questions to let him sleep. But She felt him tightened his embrace and kissed her at the top of her head.

"Did they do something to you?" Jacob asked the thing that he dreaded the most. If they ever did do something to her before he came, God knows what he could do.
