Chapter 237 - He's mine

In an instant, Arthur was already behind Oliver. He was quick that Oliver didn't even had a chance to react. Arthur holds a syringe with a clear liquid in it and has already injected it into his neck. In order to drag Oliver Garcia into the torture chamber without giving him any chance to escape, they have to sedate him.

"Eh? I didn't see that coming... was that necessary?" Lance commented upon seeing what happened.

"It is." Stefan said with a glint in his eyes that made Lance shiver. He looked at Daniel and his eyes looked the same.

He turned around to avoid looking at them. "Ah... Dr. Jacob that..." but he was not able to finish his sentence because Jacob's eyes already turned murderous. He gulped and excused himself. When he was outside the room, he was able to catch up his breath that he was holding inside the room.

Arthur dragged Oliver out of the room. They were followed by Daniel and Stefan. J and Jacob was left in the room.

"You sure have a lot of trouble coming out of your sleeves." Jacob said amused at J's calm expression. After what they found out, she was still calm.

"Mm... hmm... " J replied not looking at him. She was playing with the swivel chair.

"What are you thinking?" Jacob asked her suspiciously.

J raised her head and looked at him impassively then she supported her chin with her palm on the table. "I heard that Alex Ogden is quite good-looking and most importantly not a playboy."

After hearing that, Jacob's expression slowly turned grim. "Why is this issue coming up again Mrs. Parker?" he asked trying hard to control his anger.

J looked at him with an icy stare, her lips pressed together and her breathing is turning deep. She gritted her teeth before saying, "Last night, while you were asleep the other girlfriend called you."

Apparently, last night after they got to bed, Jacob fell asleep immediately while J became restless. She can't sleep. She is having trouble falling asleep at dawn that's why she made it a habit to sleep before midnight. That is if she is not on a night shift. So, she got up and grab a book to read. While reading, she heard Jacob's phone ringing. She wondered who could be calling him at that hour so she takes a peek. She frowned when she saw an unregistered number. She hesitated at first, but out of curiosity, she reached for the phone and answered it. Her face turned deep red when she heard a soft voice of a girl coming from the other line.

"J-Jacob..." the voice of the girl was full of seductiveness which angered J more. "Please... c-can y-you pick me up?" The girl sounds drunk.

J take a deep breath before she answered. "Jacob is already asleep. Last time I check, Jacob is a Doctor, not a driver of some legless princess." after hearing that, the girl from the other line was vexed to hear another woman answering Jacob's phone in the middle of the night. "Who are you?" the girl's tone sounds like she has sobered up. "None of your business. And please, don't ever call him again. He's mine!" After that, she hanged up leaving the girl frozen in her place. Thou she is drunk, she did clearly hear the voice of the girl who answered Jacob's phone and the words that she said.
