The Robin Hood Society

Chapter 47 - Daughter-in-law

"Yes. A couple of weeks ago. James and I have searched for her around the country but didn't find her. Until one day in the Department of Surgery, I heard someone said her name is Jenny Do. I've known her since I came back. She is a nurse in the surgical department but I just knew her as Nurse J. That's what everyone calls her. It was just later I found out that her name is Jenny Do."

"She seemed to be very mysterious, we didn't find her name in any government or private documents. So, I decided to investigate but didn't find any. I just found out from her and her biodata that she is from Lantana Province. At the age of ten, her parents died in a car accident. After that she was taken care of by her grandfather, years later she was sent abroad to study and work. When she came back, she found out that her grandfather had prostate cancer so she stayed to nurse him but died after a year. Before he died, he told Jenny about the marriage but Jenny didn't believe him until I showed her the marriage contract."

"At first, she was furious, she even prepared a Divorce paper but I rejected it. That made her even more furious. Last week I went to Lantana to see if I can find anything about her. I didn't find any instead I bumped into her driving a sports car. That's when you, mom called me. I was with her. That's also the day I decided to move in here. Since she doesn't want to live in my villa. Actually, I insisted on moving in even thou it was against her will. I wanted to try out this marriage. And at the same time, I wanted to know her more and why did our grandfathers marry us off." Jacob told his parents everything that happened between her and Jenny ever since they met.

He wanted them to know that he is seriously considering this marriage.

"So please, Mom. Treat her nice. After all, she is your daughter in law." Finally, Jacob pleads to his mother.

"I don't know about you, Hon. But this woman's background is uncertain." Madam Kelly said after she regained her composure due to the shocking news that Jacob had said them.

Chairman John Parker was silent for a couple of minutes then said, "Father chose her. He probably had a reason."

"Treat her well. And see if you can find anything." After he said that, Chairman John Parker and Madam Kelly left Jacob in the apartment.

Jacob felt exhausted. He went to see J in the bedroom. After looking at her in a deep slumber, he realized that he never had a good sleep for almost a week since J went on a night shift. He missed her.

He had been sleeping in J's bed alone for a couple of days.

After his confrontation with his parents, he doesn't have the energy to go back to the hospital. He changed his clothes then went into bed with J.

Jacob lies in the bed for a couple of minutes looking at J who is sound asleep. He wonders how would it feels like sleeping with her in his arms.

At that thought, he slowly slides his arms under J's neck making her head rest on his arms. After he successfully did that. He didn't move for a couple of minutes making sure that he didn't wake her up.
