Chapter 322 - I’ll be Okay

"Everyone, what Black Heiress means is that, since she got the trophy, she will remain in her position as a show of appreciation from everyone's support. Miss J, I mean Black Heiress and the whole team is forever appreciative of you and the organizer of this event. In return, we will be attending the banquet." J who was now passing the trophy to the assistant manager on her way down the stage suddenly stops when she heard Buck said. She turns to glare back at him. Who is going to the banquet?

Every year after the Lotus Coty Motor Speedway Championship, the organizers will hold a dinner celebration. And every year, Black Heiress and her team refused to attend. But, this year Buck, the manager announced that they will be attending making everyone surprised and excited.

"Yes, we will be attending the dinner celebration," Buck repeats himself as he nodded his head ignoring the piercing glare from his Boss. 'This girl! Acting as if the world is going to end if she socialized for just one night.' Of course, Buck only said this to himself. He knew that his body is going to die now that he made a decision to attend the banquet, he won't let his soul die by making a bold comment in front of his Boss.

J continued to walk towards the crowd where Jacob is. She was closely followed by Arthur's team shielding her from the probing reporters and fans. As soon as she reached him, Jacob pulled her in for a tight embrace. She almost had an accident earlier means, so Jacob's heart would not settle until he has her in his hands. The crowd watches as they keep a good distance from the couple.

"Are you hurt?" Jacob asked with full concern.

J shakes her head, Jacob is still holding her tight in his arms. "As long as I'm with you, I'll be okay." J didn't know what got into her mind to be able to speak that way. She realized that she sounds like a young girl in love. But she already said the words, so, she is not going to take back what she said. After all, it was not a lie.

Jacob was stunned, this is the first time that he heard her speak with such kind of affection. And it makes him want her to kiss her there and then. But, instead, he controlled himself and said something indistinctly on her ear that made her blush. He said, 'Let's go home and start making babies.'

J already made him a promise and now she doubts if Jacob would let her take back her promise.

Soon the couple walked out of the track, followed by Arthur's team and James. But the reporters decided that they should get a chance to have a rare interview of the Black Heiress. After all, they were not certain if she will appear again next year without her helmet on. They just cannot take an opportunity at the banquet because it will be exclusive and the media are not allowed.

So, the reporters run after them, it's now or never. The reporters block their way. They thought that it would be wise if they ask Jacob permission.

"Dr. Jacob, can we have an interview with your wife?" Jacob didn't get angry, he gave the reporters a smile. But his response made them take a step back.

"This is Arthur, if you want to have an interview with my wife, you have to get pass-thru him." Meaning everyone will undergo a thorough investigation first before they could have an interview with J. The reporters look at Arthur, his cold and aloof demeanor sends chills to the reporters. He is too intimidating that made the media speechless.

Once in awhile, Jacob has to keep his carefree attitude whenever he is with J. So, he let Arthur deal with the media.
