Chapter 211 - Just because I don't speak about it doesn't mean I don't care

"How come Lance didn't saw this in the CCTV footage?" Jacob asked stroking his chin with his fingers.

"Most of the CCTV footage in the restaurant that day was deleted," Arthur replied.

"Right. And even if it is not, if you are not a detective, you wouldn't notice that something fishy is going on." Stefan said.

"We've already asked Lance to identify him, and he was positive that he is the delivery man," Daniel said.

"So, the culprit for the first and second letter is Oliver Garcia. How about the third one?" Jacob was obviously getting impatient, he wanted to get his hands on the culprit as soon as possible.

"I've checked the IP address already. The location is abroad." Arthur said.

"Abroad?" Jacob asked with a grim expression.

"Yes. We are not sure yet if it is Oliver Garcia or a different person." Arthur continued.

There was silence for a couple of seconds. Then Jacob's dignified was heard. "I want Oliver Garcia in the Twelve Army Headquarters when I come back."

"Copy that. Daniel and I will head over Crocus Province tomorrow. Stefan, you stay here and watch over Miss Diana and Felix." Arthur replied with an equally dignified tone.

After exchanging a couple more words, Jacob finished his meeting with Arthur's team. At the same time, he heard the door to the bathroom opened then closed. J was probably done with her shower rituals. He intentionally made the video conference while she is not around, he doesn't want her to be preoccupied with the thought of having threats especially now that she is having a good day off at the Lodgepole Estate.

He would later tell her bits and pieces of information that Arthur's team had gathered when they got back to Lotus City but not all of it.

When Jacob came back to J's bedroom which is now technically their bedroom since they are married, he found her in the bed with her back leaning on the headrest reading a book. He takes a glance at the cover of the book, it read 'To kill a mockingbird'. Thou not a fan of classic novels, he has heard about the book by Harper Lee since it is one of the most popular classic novels of all time.

Jacob then turned to look at J tenderly. Her hair is still wet, she doesn't have the habit of blow-drying her hair not unless necessary. She would just let it dry naturally. She is wearing a grey shirt with a print of a dog but he cannot tell if she is wearing pajama pants or shorts or Capri because she is covered with a blanket from hips to toe.

J felt his gaze and furrowed her brow. "Aren't you going to take a shower yet?" she asked but Jacob didn't answer her instead he scolded her and pretended to be angry. "Why don't you dry up your hair first before going to bed?"

J pursed her lips and said, "Why did you suddenly care about it?"

Jacob walked towards the walk-in closet and grab a clean towel. "Just because I don't speak about it doesn't mean I don't care." Then he walks towards her and dries her hair with the towel. J acted like she was going to turn her head away from Jacob's hand but Jacob was quick to catch her wet hair. "You were just too stubborn, I knew you wouldn't listen to me. Stay put." J pouts her lips as Jacob continued to dry her hair.
