Chapter 488 - You intimidate them

Jacob knew that J would like it there base on the fact that she loves places like the Lodgepole Estate. She loves the serenity that any forms of bodies of water could give.

"I really liked it here," J replied.

"The place is also beautiful during the daytime."

"I guess I would like it better at night," J stated casually.

Jacob snickered. "What are you? An owl?"

J pout her lips. "It is more peaceful at night." Jacob understands and acknowledges her.

"You're right."

The couple became silent as they watch Leticia and Mark persuading the twins to get inside since it is getting colder. But the twins were adamant at staying longer.

"Just a minute mom!" Paula shouted as she runs towards the bushes. Paul is facing a tree with his eyes closed while counting one to ten.

"Ten! I'm coming!" Then he runs around searching for his twin sister. They were playing hide and seek.

"Gotcha!" Paul shouted when he found Paula hiding in the bushes. They heard the shriek of Paula and it made everyone laugh. Leticia and Mark were standing side by side with Mark's arms around Leticia's shoulder. They were watching as the twins bicker at each other.

"That's enough! Let's get inside or else you'll get cold." Leticia persuaded the twins and the latter obliged. They run towards Leticia and Mark. Mark squatted down and let Paula pounce on his back carrying her on a piggyback. Leticia was holding Paul's hand as they walk inside the villa.

"Aren't you getting inside yet?" Leticia asked them as they stepped in the balcony.

Jacob cocked his head. "We'll stay a little bit."

"Okay, don't stay out for too long or else mom would nag at you," Leticia said with a teasing smile.

What a beautiful family. J thought internally and she hopes that she could have that kind of family with Jacob. She can't wait to have a child of their own.

"You didn't really fall in love with Lance all those years? Even just a bit?" Jacob asked out of the blue. It seems that it was still bugging him and he won't be at ease until he was assured.

J smiled, she already expected that Jacob would bring out the topic any moment. "What kind of assurance do you want?"

"I don't know."

J pulled her body away from Jacob and looked at his eyes. "Even if I did fall in love with him, it doesn't matter because what important is who I love now."

A smile flashed in Jacob's face but he still wants to tease her.

"You really didn't?"

J rolled her eyes. "Never."

"How about Nicholas?"

J furrowed her brows. "Nick?"

"Mm... hmm... were you attracted to him?"

"No. What are you up to Dr. Parker?" J scowled at him.

Jacob laughed and finds her really cute when she gots angry at him. "Nothing. I just wanted to find out what kind of man got your interest before."

J punched him in his chest but since she is bundled up in the blanket, her punch didn't affect him. "I never had an interest with anyone before."

"That's impossible!" Jacob exclaimed.

"How's that impossible? For you maybe but not for me. I never laid an eye to anyone so no one ever got my attention and no one ever interest me. No one even dared to catch my interest!" J barked at him in irritation.

Jacob roared in laughter then pinched her cheeks. She swatted his hands in annoyance. Jacob calmed himself. "Honey, a lot of men were attracted to you but no one dared to approach you because you always glared at them. You intimidate them."

J was stunned. Everyone says that she is quite intimidating but she never realized it was that bad that no one would dare approach her. Not that she minds, in fact, it was in her favor that no one approaches her. But, it is just now that she sees it in a negative way after hearing it from Jacob.
