Chapter 249 - The doted wife

"No! I mean yes! But..." J was surprised. She never expected that Jacob would take the initiative to buy her a car for the upcoming Annual Lotus City Motor Speedway Championship. She very well knows that Jacob is against her racing specially after the accident almost two weeks ago. He didn't even allow her to touch a steering wheel after that. J looked at Jacob with narrowed eyes.

"I ordered the latest and most innovative fire suits for you. You must wear it during your practice and the Championship. And also, I had someone from abroad to help set up the latest design of safety devices in your car. They should arrive tomorrow. Tell your team to cooperate well with them. And, call your manager, tell him to pick up your car here and take it to Naupaka Racing Circuit. I won't allow you to drive it unless it is not yet fully set up with safety devices." Jacob said in his most assertive tone. After saying that Jacob turned around and entered the villa leaving J slack-jawed.

J walked fast to follow Jacob. "Jacob..." J wanted to ask Jacob why did he bought the car even thou he doesn't like the idea of her racing but Jacob suddenly stopped walking making her face bumped into his broad back.

"I still don't approve of you racing or joining that championship. But will you oblige if I told you not to race? No. Will you stop if I told you to stop? No. I don't want to have a misunderstanding between the two of us just because of this. So, instead of complicating things, I'll just have to support you in anything that you want to do even thou it is against my will. But still, I have to make sure that you will be safe." Jacob said facing J in a close distance.

J didn't know what to say. Jacob didn't give her a chance to say something or ask. Anyway, he was able to answer all the questions and doubts that J had in mind. Right now, she was just so elated that she wanted to run towards the new car and drive it around the city in its fastest speed.

She gave Jacob a warm smile and said, "I told you I hate surprises."

"So you hate this." Jacob said referring to him buying her a race car.

"No. Thank you." J said without averting her gaze from Jacob.

"Do you know how complicated I feel right now? I got you bunch of A-teams to keep you safe yet here I am, putting your life at risk by buying you a car that almost cost you your life once just to make you happy." Jacob sounded like a defeated child. He was not supposed to buy that car in the first place. He was actually happy that the insurance company is taking long to compensate her giving her a low chances of joining the upcoming race. But the thought of her sad and angry at most making him unease. So, he made the decision to buy her the car.

J rolled her eyes. "Okay. What do you want?"

Jacob gave her an insidious smile. "How about a kiss?"

J glared at him. Pervert! Have you forgotten that we are not alone here at the villa anymore?!

Arthur, Stefan and Felix who were still in the living room heard what Jacob said and out of respect, they walked out going back to the kitchen to give the couple some privacy
