Chapter 125 - Charmingly Stubborn

J kept pondering about it. Although it is not yet confirmed, she couldn't think of any reason as to why did her grandfather married her to Jacob Parker. But what would the Parkers get in return? Power? Money? Obviously, they already got it all.

Lance hang up the call earlier to find out if it was really Jacob who killed the Sano Twins. He said that he just needed a couple of calls to find out.

While waiting for Lance to call her back, J got up from the bed and walked around the house. Then she seemed to remember something. She walked out of the house and looked around. After a couple of minutes, she lowered her head turn around to walk inside the house with a smirk.

Then she received a text message from Lance. "Can't call you right now. I'm in the middle of the conference. But I confirmed it. It was really Jacob who killed one of the Sano Twins, while the other one was killed by one of his men."

Although she was not surprised, her lips pressed firmly into a thin line before she entered the house.

....

"You don't have to come with me," J said firmly.

"I said, I'm going with you. And that's final." Jacob replied in a firmer tone as if challenging J's stubbornness.

J pursed her lips.

The next day when Jacob was about to leave the house and asked J if she has plans of going out, she said that she would be visiting the family of her patient that died in the OR Theater. Then Jacob insisted on coming with her.

Since then, they have been bickering with each other for almost half an hour.

J originally wanted to meet the family not just because he was his patient but also because she felt responsible as the heiress of the Robin Hood Society to visit them and give them her condolences. The young police was a member of the Society and he was killed by the Sano Twins because they found out that he is a member of the society.

Although the Sano Twins were dead and CEO Wang is nowhere to be found, Jacob still felt uncomfortable in letting J go out alone. After finding out that she is the heiress of the Robin Hood Society he is very much aware that danger might come to her any moment. And he just wanted to be there to protect her. Although the A team is still watching over her from the distance, he still felt that it was not enough. He wanted them to guard her closely but he was sure that J wouldn't want that.

"It was just a couple of minutes away from here. You can just lend me one of your cars." J is now standing in front of Jacob although Jacob is much taller than her, she wouldn't let him make her feel intimidated.

Jacob standing like a king in front of J with both his hands on his waist looked down at her. Looking her in the eye. J didn't avert her gaze and stared back at him.

"I wouldn't take too long," J said. Her eyes stared beseechingly at Jacob.

She is so stubborn. Jacob thought to himself. But he still finds it charming. He can't control himself to let out a small smile which J noticed. Her eyes averted from his eyes down to his lips. She unconsciously bit a small part of her bottom lip. He is so breathtakingly handsome especially when he smiles. His smile is her weakness.
