Chapter 440 - Absence

Aivy raised her brow then she walked back to her desk and takes a sit on her armchair. She flicked her cigarette into an ashtray before she asked. "Who is that visitor?"

"Its Jenny Do-Parker."

Aivy frowned as she took another stick of cigarette. Hector was right, it did make her stressed out. Aivy knew that the original owner of Massive J which was then called Galaxy is Alexander Do, the grandfather of Jenny Do which is now married to Jacob Parker.

The Galaxy was stolen by Mayor Hall. When she found out that Mayor Hall possessed a rare blue diamond, she immediately reached out to him. She realized that Mayor Hall is ignorant when it comes to gems so she tried to offer him 10 million dollars in exchange for the Galaxy, she was actually surprised when the latter accepted without a second thought.

The Do's and the Parker's were big names in both the formal and informal business sector. Aivy is starting to panic thinking that Jenny Do might have already found out that Massive J is actually Galaxy and that she possessed it. She is now fidgeting in her seat. When she turn Galaxy into a pendant, she named it Massive J because of the letter J engraved on its girdle.

It was only later she found out that J is actually the initial of Elder Do's granddaughter, the heiress of the Robin Hood Society when Jenny Do was presented as the wife of Jacob Parker. Rumors circulated that Jenny Do is in fact Alexander Do's granddaughter, which was later on confirmed.

"Do you think that the Robin Hood Society has found out about our plan?" Aivy asked Hector, worry is evident to her face.

Hector tried to calm her down. "Oh… don't worry too much. I heard that she is with a friend that is a film investor that happened to be filming a movie in that location during that time. They just made a stroll and discovered The Children of Mt. Celandine. They didn't do much actually. So, it was probably just a coincidence." Hector said with a tight-lip smile.

"is that so?" Aivy is seemed to have calmed down a little.

"Yeah. So, don't fret." Good thing Aivy can easily be swayed. Hector thought internally.

….

It was exactly four days since Jacob left. During the day, J barely notices the absence of Jacob because she usually spends the day at the Department of Surgery while Jacob often stays in his office at the CLP Hospital or the Twelve Army.

But his absence is noticeable at night. J is used to living alone until Jacob came into her life. And since then, she is surprisingly not used to sleeping alone without Jacob beside her. She missed sleeping in his arms. She missed the warmth of his body. She missed his unique scent. She missed his heartbeat close to her. She missed everything about him.

She is now lying in bed waiting for Jacob's call. Every night Jacob would always call during dinner and before J goes to bed. During the day, they would send text messages to each other if they have free time.

J is reading a novel titled Mansfield Park by her favorite author Jane Austen when she heard her phone rings. She reached out for her phone that is on the bedside table and her heart rate instantly increased when she saw the caller ID.

Her phone didn't ring twice when she answered Jacob's call.

"Hey," J said biting her lips to prevent her excitement in hearing Jacob's voice being notice.

"Hey Honey, do you miss me?" J's lips curved when she heard Jacob's question.

"Yeah." She hesitated at first before she replied.

"Mm…Good. That means you've been thinking of me. Because I've been thinking of you every second." Jacob's tone is melancholic. J felt her chest tightened. She could sense that Jacob really missed her.
