Chapter 513 - Defending Him (2/2)
”Can you please explain to me what were you thinking back there? Do you know how dangerous what you did?!” And there goes his temper. She could actually match his temper but of course, she cannot, it is Jacob. She has always felt submissive towards him.
”I'm sorry. I know it was. But I don't think he would hurt me.” She said, her head lowered. Her hand is fidgeting on the hem of her shirt.
”He wouldn't hurt you, yes. But he could've hurt me by stealing you away from me! He could've done that earlier!” Jacob is driving and his hands tightly gripping on the wheels. J noticed that.
J sighed. ”He wouldn't do that. At least, not forcefully.”
”Seriously?!” Jacob glared at her which made her taken aback. ”You are now defending him?” That did it.
”Of course not! I was just defending my judgment!” J's tone is a bit higher than before.
”He said that he knows something about Diana. Then I thought maybe he has something to do with it so I decided to talk to him. Maybe he is really behind this. But I was wrong. He knows nothing. I don't know. I was just worried about Diana and I can't seem to do anything to help her. I felt useless knowing that I may be part of the reason why this is happening to her.” J has become emotional and teary-eyed. In fact, her last words seemed to have slurred a bit.
That time, they arrived at Evergreen Villa and before Jacob could say anything, J has already jumped out of the car and rushed inside the house.
Jacob brushed his face with both his palm. He felt guilty for raising a voice at her. He was so furious that she became impulsive and went to meet with Alex. But he almost forgot that J was probably blaming herself for what is happening right now.
A lot of people want to hurt her or get their hands on her. And they were just around waiting for a chance to do that. And the best way to do that is of course, through the most important person to her.
Well, of course, Jacob or the Parkers are not on their list. Who would dare? No one knows of her relationship with Lance. And the only person that has a close relationship with her and is open in the public is Diana and Timothy. Diana is the most vulnerable. At least, that's what they thought.
