Miss Nancy was taken aback. She didn't expect Jacob's words. It was unexpected for someone who was arranged to be married to someone you didn't know and who don't trust you. She is starting to have confidence and respect for this man. Who could this person be and how did Elder Do know him?

"I don't trust you but I will trust your words." Miss Nancy said later on.

The time past and soon it was time for J and Jacob to leave Martha's Home.

J and Jacob said goodbye to the elders and Miss Nancy.

"If you need anything please call me. My hospital will be providing you with medical services." Jacob said to Miss Nancy.

Miss Nancy nodded and said, "Thank you, Dr. Parker."

"We'll be back again next month." J was taken aback, she said it without giving it a thought. She said 'We' instead of 'I'. Before she was able to take it back, she already saw a grin in Jacob's face. Jacob was grinning on the outside but laughing on the inside. That means they will still be married in the coming months. Jacob thought to himself.

Inside the SUV, a grin was still plastered in Jacob's face. J was irritated so he turned to face Jacob but she was out for words. She doesn't know how to explain what she just said. So instead she asked him, "What did you and Miss Nancy talk in the office:"

Jacob shrugged his shoulder and said, "Mm... nothing, just some stuff about Martha's Home."

"Just that? You didn't tell her we're married, did you?" J didn't believe him.

"No, I didn't." Jacob instantly said still with a grin on his face. 'She did' he said that more to himself.

"Could you please stop smiling?" J said irritatingly with a furrowed brow.

Jacob chuckled and said, "What's wrong with me smiling?"

"It irks me," J said frowning.

"Haha. You're cute." Jacob couldn't help it.

Damn you! J cursed him in her thoughts.

It was followed by an awkward silence. Jacob noticed J's awkwardness so he asked her, "Do you want to say something?"

J was startled when she heard Jacob asked her. She turned back at him as if about to say something but her words were stuck in her throat when she finds him looking at her. Her heart pounds faster. What? It's not as if she was about to confess something. Urgh... damn his handsomeness!

J diverted her gaze. Close her eyes to regain her calmness. When she opened her eyes, she started speaking without looking at Jacob. "About yesterday..." she stopped didn't know how to compose her words.

"What about it?" Jacob asked glancing at her while driving.

"At the speedway..." J replied waiting for Jacob's reaction.

"Oh... about The Black Heiress?" Jacob said casually.

J looked at him surprised and said, "How did you know about that?" J thought that Jacob just found out about her as a sports car driver but it turns out that he also knew about her alias.

Jacob shrugged his shoulder not looking at J and said, "A little birdie told me."

"Who's that little birdie?" J replied with a furrowed brow.

Jacob looked at her smiling adorably, "Don't worry, that little birdie won't tell anyone about your identity. He's afraid of scalpels."

Scalpels? What? He better be sure about that. J thought to herself then sighed.

"About the sports car that I was driving when I bumped in you at Lantana Province," J said later on
