Chapter 472 - Trap

Behind Aivy is Hector who is in a trance. He thought about the blue diamond ring that J is wearing. Could it be that it was the real Galaxy? He thought internally.

"Miss Aivy, we are here as a lawyer of the Como family and The Children Of Mt. Celandine. From now on, you will not threaten or harass them. You will not ask any compensation from them. Because if you did..." The lawyer paused and looked at one corner of the ceiling.

Aivy followed the lawyers gaze and saw a CCTV camera. Damn! She fell in their trap. She shot Laurie a piercing glare.

"...your words earlier will be used against you." The lawyer continued and noticed the look that Aivy is giving Laurie.

"And remember, that Ms. Laurie and her family are protected by the Twelve Army. If anything happens to them, we knew who to find."

The other lawyer added words to warn her. "And you probably have heard of the rumors on how do the Parker's punished those that go against them? Right? And you knew from whom you stole that Blue Diamond as well. Please remember that."

The lawyers didn't have to elaborate further. Aivy stole the Galaxy from Mayor Hall who stole it from the Do. So, in a way, she stole it from the Do's particularly to J who owned that Galaxy. And everyone knows now that J is married to Jacob Parker making her a Parker now. So, whoever goes against her is not just going against the Robin Hood Society but to Twelve Army as well.

Aivy was rendered speechless at her misfortune that unfolded in front of her. She staggered backward and fell in the plush chair behind her.

....

"Not yet sleepy?" Jacob just got out of the bathroom when he saw J on the bed with her back leaning on the headrest. On her hand is the remote control of the TV mounted on the wall of the room. She is scanning yhe channels but can't seem to find anything that would catch her interest.

J shook her head at Jacob's question not looking at her direction.

"Good." Jacob replied which made J looked at him with curiosity. 'What does he mean by good?' She asked internally.

Jacob grabbed a silk kimono robe before he waalked towards the bed. "Come." He reached out for J's hand and help her get out of the bed. J is wearing a light blue printed nightdress. If Jacob is taking her outside, she has to wear that silk kimono robe since the weather outside is colder.

Jacob helped her put on the robe then he engulf her hand into his before pulling her out of the room.

"Where are we going?" J questioned him.with an annoyed look. It's almost midnight now and by the way they dress, it doesn't seem like they are going outside the hotel.

Jacob looked behind him and gave J a sweet smile. "You'll see."

J raised a brow on him. She hates surprises but surprises coming from him is something that she looked forward for.

They reached the elevator of the floor when the door closes, Jacob pushed the button to the top floor. Since it is almost midnight, they didn't see anyone in the hall or in the elevator. When they reached the top floor which is apparently the rooftop of the hotel, J shivered as soon as the cold wind touched her silk kimono robe.

The rooftop is surrounded by glass railings, it is decorated with wooden floor, vintage lamps that are randomly seen on the floor and flower pots. There were also rustic bench on the corners.

J noticed an elevated wooded deck at the center of the rooftop with comforter filled with cushions and pillows. It was also surrounded by lighted glass candle jars.

One word that instantly comes to J's mind is 'Romantic'.

She looked at Jacob with astonishment.
