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.

The Mysterious Man

But they do not doubt that Blake Berrow is a man of means. After all, no ordinary man could be invited to such lavish events. Not to mention he seemed to be acquainted with the Parkers.

Damien, who was eyeing the man in front of him suspiciously though discreetly, leaned closer to Nora and asked, "Do you know him?" It was obvious to him that Nora and the man whose name was Blake Berrow knew each other. And he seemed to be close to Nora's brother. 

But Damien doesn't like the way he was smiling at Nora. It was not the kind of smile that would make him think that he was flirting with Nora. Damien could not feel even an ounce of jealousy towards the man, all he felt was suspiciousness. There was something about the man that Damien found odd. 

Damien was even more suspicious when Blake Berrow looked in his direction with a smug look on his face.
