Chapter 566 - Someone's Watching

"You know I originally planned to have them convert this into a streetcar," Jacob said making J looked at him in amusement because converting a race car into streetcar might cost more than just the repair.

"Then why didn't you?" J was curious.

"Ha-ha. You're crazy." Jacob said as he pinched J's nose. "This car is too popular and if you drive it in the streets, you'll catch too much attention and that's the last thing that I wanted to happen."

J smiled because she knows that he is right.

"Then, I'll just keep it here at the showcase area for the meantime. But, will you let me drive this at Naupaka Racing Circuit once in a while?" J said with beseeching eyes.

The way she looks at him makes him want to say yes immediately but his safety is his priority so he said, "I'll think about it." instead. Thou it made J dismayed, at least, she has something to look forward to. Looking forward that Jacob would change his mind.

Jacob ordered food for the team before they left because they still have their next itinerary to catch.

Inside J's sports car. "I still can't believe you managed to keep that from me." J has been visiting the Black Heiress Team once in a while with Jacob or Arthur's Team but never did she noticed that they were hiding something from her.

She wonders where did they repair the car.

"So, you were going there behind my back?" J glared at Jacob sending a different message.

"Ha-ha. Honey, I am not going anywhere else behind your back that you wouldn't like. I promise."

J gave him a side-eye before she returns her eyes on the road.

"So, where are we going next?" She asked.

Jacob fell silent. "You know, this just feels weird that I am going to take you somewhere to surprise you but you behind that steering wheel asking the next destination is making it less exciting," Jacob said mopping.

J frowned because she sensed where this is going. "Don't you dare steal the wheel from me Mr. Parker or I swear I am getting out of the car and take a taxi back to Evergreen!" J scowled at him.

"Okay, okay! Why are you so angered so easily? I won't steal that from you." Jacob looked at her amusedly.

"Let's go to Lodgepole Estate." He said afterward when J didn't respond. The last thing he wants for now is to anger his wife on her birthday.

J looked at him with her eyebrows raised. Lodgepole? She wants to ask why but then held back herself because she might spoil Jacob's surprise if there is anymore.

Meanwhile, at Twelve Army Headquarters, Arthur's Team used one of the control rooms to watch over J and Jacob's every movement via satellite.

In front of them were multiple monitors showing real time images of their location. They could clearly see J's sports car taking a highway going to Lantana.

They are on the look out in case there are suspicious cars trailing them or if there were any dangers ahead of them or coming to them from any area within their 15 km radius.

If in case there is, they will immediately contact any agent from Twelve Army and the Robin Hood Society near them to protect the heiress.

Arthur was against them being left behind at first. He even suggested that they can follow them secretly but Jacob insisted that he wanted some time alone with his wife.

He cared about J that much especially now that Jack Ogden has already directly threatened them. Although Jack Ogden gave the Parkers one month to leave the heiress, they cannot be at ease.

Threats of Novus Rex are everywhere. Threats from the second class elites were everywhere as well.

Although the fact that someone is watching them made Jacob uncomfortable, he just reminds himself that this is to protect J. So he suggested that Arthur's Team just watch them via a satellite.

Jacob didn't tell about it to J because he knew that it will make her anxious. Who would be happy to find out that someone is secretly watching you?

J and Jacob have now reached Lantana Province and so far, Arthur's Team hasn't found any threats yet. They just hope that today would end smoothly and no harm would befall their heiress.
