Chapter 562 - Gift from the Wives

"We hope that you don't mind us giving you flowers," Stefan said with a smile.

"No, I don't mind." She replied and that was the truth.

"We were actually discussing what gift to give you but we can't think of anything and we know that you are not a materialistic person, so we just ended up buying you flowers. And of course, our loyalty and sincerity. We also promise to protect you not just because it's our job but because you are our friend and we care about you." Felix said making J bit her lip. Who would've thought that an A-Team of Twelve Army that is known to be cold and ruthless could be this sweet?

Daniel pulled out something behind him making Felix and Stefan widened their eyes at him. They decided not to give her anything as a gift, how come this guy brought her a gift on his own?

Daniel just shrugs his shoulder at them. "This is from Hannah." It is a small gift box.

"Oh... please thank her from me," J said as she accepted the gift. She is not eager to receive gifts but it would feel awkward if she doesn't accepts it, after all, it came from Hannah.

Seeing that it came from Daniel's wife, Felix thought of something. "Right! Wait here!" He said, then he is gone only to return with a gift box of his own. He received an accusing look from the three men.

"Don't give me that look. I also have a wife." Then he looks at J and gives her the gift. "This is from my wife."

J was surprised to receive a gift from Felix's wife because they haven't met before. It makes her doubt if it really came from his wife.

"Oh my God! You don't believe me don't you?" Felix exclaimed feeling dejected. He is holding his hand on his chest.

J laughed. "Okay, okay. I believe you. And thank her for me."

"We should get going." Jacob interrupted them.

J nodded her head. "Okay." She turns to look back at Arthur's Team. "Thanks again for this." She said as she raised the flowers and gifts she received from them.

"We'll see you later." She heard Arthur said making her look back at them and ponder what he meant by that. She was about to ask him however, Jacob pulled her arm towards his SUV.

Inside Jacob's SUV. "Those guys dotes on you too much making me wary of them," Jacob said as he looked at the bouquet of flowers and gifts on J's lap.

J chuckled because she sensed the unnecessary jealousy in Jacob's tone. "It was you who chose them for me." She reminds him.

"I know. And it makes me doubt my judgment." Jacob replied thou he was a bit jealous he knows that there is nothing to be jealous about.

J and Jacob left the mansion but they didn't go anywhere yet. They went first to Evergreen Villa.

"Why are we here?" J asked.

Jacob gave her a goofy smile. "We'll change the car."

"Oh...then, I'll just take this inside." She said talking about the flowers and gifts.

J steps out of the SUV and takes the gifts in their room. She planned to open it later but realized that they probably won't be coming there in a God knows how many days. And knowing Felix, he might ask her sooner or later if she liked the gift and she wouldn't know how to answer that if she hasn't opened it. So she decided to open the gifts quickly.

She opened Hannah's gift first. It is in a peach gift box with a peach ribbon on the side. When she opened it, she saw a small deep green bottle of bath oil. She didn't expect it or maybe she just doesn't know what to expect from a gift because she rarely receives gift.

She opened the bottle and put it in her nose. She smelled a mix of jasmine, damask oil and neroli. It is revitalizing. Based on its packaging, J guessed that it is not cheap. Daniel probably must've known how she indulged herself for hours in the bathroom.

She put away the bottle then takes Emily's gift. It is in a navy blue gift box with a blue ribbon and a golden heart emblem on it. When she opens it, she can't help but smile.
