The Society's Heiress

COMPLETED "Being married to you means the world to me. Don't worry about my family, they knew, and they were much eager to protect you. I don't care if my life would be in danger as long as you are safe. My life is not normal without you in it. Ah… what was the last one?" Jacob stopped and rubbed his chin trying to remember J's last word before he interfered. "Ah! Right!" Jacob's eyes gleamed when he seemed to remember. "I was so glad that your grandfather dragged me into this messy and complicated life of yours. Because if he didn't, I would be forcing myself into your life, even if you don't want to." "Was I able to answer all your questions, Mrs. Jacob Parker?" Jacob asked, emphasizing how he addresses J as Mrs. Jacob Parker indicating that whoever she is, she would still be his wife. ~~~ At the age of 10, J's parents died in an ambush leaving her in the care of her grandfather who years later sent her away along with her best friend to hide her and her identity from those who would try to kill her after her parents. 20 years later, a lot of things had already happened. Her grandfather died. She is back in the country for good though still hiding her identity. Everything was peaceful until a man came claiming her as his wife. Since then, her peaceful life flipped upside down. People who want her dead found her but his so-called husband never left her. He was even willing to kill and be killed just to protect her.

Out of Obligation

"I am pretending to be Lucas Upston because I need to be Lucas Upston while working with those private investigators. I still want my private life like you," Damien said as he stared intensely at Nora. His body was leaning on the chair with one of his elbows resting on the backrest while the other one was on the table. His finger was tapping on the table as he watched Nora's reaction.

Nora raised a brow. Wanting to have a private life is an acceptable reason if you are a public personality. But is he? She asked herself. Based on the information that Timothy got, Damien was a private investigator pretending to be Lucas Upston. Aside from that, there is nothing about his life that would put him in the spotlight. In fact, he doesn't have any professional records aside from him leading a bunch of private investigators to find her. 

Unless there is still information that he was hiding, which Nora was certain that Timothy is already looking through.
