Chapter 144 - Who is the Lucky Guy? (1/2)

There was a moment of silence from the other line. Then she heard him laughed.

”Did Jacob thought you how to joke? Seriously?” Lance thought that J was just bluffing. After all this year, they were not allowed to see each other as per President Martin's order. Which they unwillingly obliged.

”Seriously, I'll meet you at Jacob's office.” then she hung up feeling a little irritated.

After a couple of minutes, J received a text message from Lance. 'Seriously?' Which J chose to ignore. She is not the type of person that would joke around. And Lance should be the first person to know that.

Because J is not replying in his text reply, Lance called her. But before he could say anything, he heard J speak on the other line. ”I am not joking around.”

”I know,” Lance replied. ”But, if my guess is right, you are going to tell him all your secrets.” Lance continued and paused waiting for J's confirmation but she didn't say anything. ”Are you sure about this? I mean, although your marriage seemed to be real, the two of you have no recollections that you sign that kind of contract. And I haven't found Elder Parker, he is the only one who could exactly explain what happened.”

After a couple of minutes of silence, J replied nonchalantly ”I'm sure about this.”

The rest of the morning was not too busy at the Department of surgery. She only had to assist an appendectomy which didn't last for half an hour.

During lunchtime, as usual, J met with Diana at the hospital's cafeteria. Diana has been busy with her upcoming wedding with Leo, her mother's right-hand man. After a couple of years hiding their feelings from each other, finally, they are getting married. J thought that Diana deserves to be happy.

But that reminds her, that she hasn't told Diana about her marriage to Jacob. Obviously, Leo hasn't told her yet or Leo probably didn't know. Because if Diana already knew about it, she would've asked her. So she seized this chance to tell her about it, after all, she is one of her best friends.

While eating in the corner of the cafeteria, which J preferred the most because it was far from the noise of other staffs that eats in the cafeteria, J for the first time initiated a talk between the two of them.

”Hey... did you remember the day that grandfather died?”

When Diana heard her there was sadness in her eyes but that was just for a short moment. ”Hmm... Yes. But I was not there. You gave me a day off thou I really didn't need it that time but you still insisted. Why?”

”He told me that he married me off to some guy.” that was straight to the point which made Diana speechless. Knowing J, definitely, she is serious.
