Chapter 526 - Im not leaving her

"Now I have a proposition."

Proposition? Jacob was alerted, thou he still looked calm.

"Leave the heiress and I'll spare your family."

Chairman John Parker frowned. "Mr. Ogden, I guess you have forgotten who you are talking to."

Jack Ogden chuckled then challenged the gaze of Chairman John. "Or probably you have forgotten who you are talking to, Mr. Parker."

The two of them looked at each other with a piercing glare.

"You cannot touch my family. Don't you dare." Chairman John threatened him with greeted teeth. His hands clenched under the table.

"Oh, I'm sure I can!" Jack Ogden smiled smugly. "So what do you think Jacob Parker?"

Jacob is fuming with anger but he is trying to control it. "I will not leave her and you will not go near my family." His voice was cold and threatening.

Jack Ogden chuckled. "Let's see about that. I know your company, I know your family, I know where they are and what they do. So, don't challenge my patience." Jack Ogden shook his head then he stood up. Carlos immediately helped him.

"I'll give you one month." Then he left. He left Jacob and his father fuming inside.

After a couple of minutes, Jacob stood up.

"Jacob..." Chairman John called him out.

"Dad... please." Jacob stops in his tracks but he didn't look at his father. "I'm not leaving her." His voice was determined. He was thinking that because Jack Ogden is threatening them, Chairman John Parker will convince him to leave his wife. But he was wrong.

"I'm not telling you to leave her." Chairman John Parker stood up and walk in front of Jacob. "Tell President Martin that I'll be paying him a visit one of these days. If Novus Rex wants war, then we'll give them war." There is going to be a bloodbath.

Then Chairman John walked away leaving Jacob and James astounded. They have never seen Chairman John Parker that vicious before.

....

"Can you please stop pacing around, sweetheart." Madam Kelly said while she herself is pacing around as well.

"I'm sorry mom, I can't," J said filled with worries.

A couple of days after the mid-month meeting at The Robin Hood Society headquarters, Jacob and J received news that Jack Ogden sent someone to give Chairman John a message that he wants to have a chat with him.

Jacob took this opportunity and decided to go with his father. J wanted to go but of course, Jacob didn't let her.

When Jacob left with James and Chairman John, J was left at Evergreen Villa. But she was unease. She wants to do something, she wants to go somewhere but she can't. She is too preoccupied. She takes leave at the hospital because she knew that she cannot work normally. Her mind is not functioning well. She'll get crazy so she decided to visit Madam Kelly. Arthur's team never leave her side.

But when she arrived at the Parkers Mansion, Madam Kelly is no less anxious than her. Probably worse. Why not? Both their husband is meeting with a lawless protagonist.

J continued on fidgeting on the family room, she either sits or walks around but she won't stay put in a minute.

"I can't wait any longer."

Madam Kelly heard J speak then she saw J rushed out of the mansion.

"Jenny!" Madam Kelly followed her.

"Sweetheart! Wait! Where are you going?"

Arthur who was on the lookout outside the mansion heard Madam Kelly, it was only then that he saw J bolted towards the car.

J gets inside the car, she is determined to follow where Jacob is. But, to her dismay, the key to the car is nowhere. She saw Arthur walking towards the car. She immediately steps out and asks him for the key.

"Miss J, what are you doing?" Arthur's face was full of concern. Arthur was never like this to anyone, he is either cold, aloof or indifferent.

"I need to see him. Give me the key." J said in a rush tone.

But before Arthur could say something, they saw Jacob's SUV.

As soon as Jacob step out of the car, J has already rushed to him and pounced on him as if they haven't seen each other for decades. Jacob felt her warm embrace not surprised at all because he would do the same. After his talk to Jack Ogden, the first thing that comes to his mind is to hold her in his arms and never let her go.
