Chapter 419 - Exceptions (1)

After their two-days off, J and Jacob went back to CLP Hospital together. Since her formal announcement as the wife of the CEO, J has always been in the morning shift. Although she misses the night shift, the morning shift is her favorite because it is when most of the operations were scheduled.

They were now in the elevator with James and a couple of nurses. Other nurses noticed Jacob and J's hands were intertwined ever since they stepped into the elevator and never released each other's hands. J and Jacob now rarely use the private elevator which only connects the 1st Level Basement parking and the 10th floor unless they will go straight to the 10th floor. But since Jacob always sends J to the Department of Surgery every day, they use the common elevator to the 8th floor.

The two of them holding hands together or with Jacob's hand at the lower back of J has been a common scenery at the hospital. It just shows how possessive their President is of his wife.

Before they reached the 8th floor, it was only J, Jacob and James were left inside the elevator. "Dr. Jacob, tomorrow will be the shareholders meeting that Mr. and Mrs. Ivanov requested." James reminded Jacob as soon as there is no other person inside the elevator.

"Mm…it took them long," Jacob said. His head tilted upwards looking as the numbers on the top of the elevator door changes. One hand in his pocket while the other hand holding J's.

J looked at James, his face is stern indicating that it must be a serious issue if the Ivanov's were requesting for an emergency meeting. Then she looked at Jacob. On his face is a blithe disregard of what James had said. She wonders why would the Ivanov's ask for an emergency shareholders meeting and Jacob seemed to be undisturbed.

J heard the elevator 'ding' indicating that they have finally arrived on the 8th floor. J exits the elevator then Jacob followed her while James proceeds to the 10th floor.

As soon as the door of the elevator closed again, Jacob tugged J's hand to catch her attention. J looked at him questioningly.

"The meeting tomorrow will be in the afternoon. And you are coming with me." Jacob said while staring at J's eyes.

J narrowed her eyes. "Jacob you know that I don't expose myself in the business circle."

Jacob smiled. He already expected that response from her but unfortunately, he won't take a no for an answer. "I'll take that as a yes."

J glared at Jacob. Then she realized something. She cocked her head and said, "You are planning something." It was not a question but a statement.

"My wife knows me well," Jacob said as he strokes J's long hair with a mesmerizing smile.

"And tell Lance, if he is not too busy with his love life, to attend to."

After staring for long in Jacob's mesmerizing eyes. J replied with a lowered shoulder. "Okay." As if she was hypnotized.

"Good," Jacob said as he reached for J's chin and tilted it upwards so that he can have a better look at his wife's beautiful and gentle face.

"But just this one," J said. She doesn't want to expose herself in the business circle as the anonymous person who owns a lot of assets managed by a single lawyer. But she will make an exception because her husband asks for it. After all, she thinks that the reason why the Ivanov's were causing this kind of ruckus is because of what happened to JK and Stella. At the bottom of it all, she is the main reason.

Jacob didn't reply instead he closed the distance and kissed J's lips. Jacob's kiss was intoxicating that J was immediately drawn into it. She closed her eyes savoring the lingering lips of Jacob into hers forgetting that they were in the lobby of the 8th floor.
