The Robin Hood Society (Jacob And The Heiress) - Chapter 639
“I shouldn’t have encouraged your petty revenge plot.” Her father added in a solemn tone.
“Petty?!” Her father’s word gave her the pip. “She stole my money! Exposed this bribery scandal and now my sex life! How could you say that taking revenge against her as petty?!” Senator Rizza slammed her palm on her father’s desk.
“Insolence! Don’t you dare raise your voice against me young kid!” Her father stood up and raised a finger at her. “Stop this nonsense already! Going after the heiress of the Robin Hood Society will put our family into a more predicament and if that happens, the elders will renounce you!” If at first, her father was in full support of her ploys against the heiress of the Robin Hood Society, this time, he regretted it.
He thought that his daughter is capable enough to brazenly go against the Robin Hood Society. The thought of her as the legendary woman who put the downfall of the Robin Hood Society is too blinding, but it turns out that it was just wishful thinking.
They cannot win against the Robin Hood Society. No one can.
And if they continue to go against them, it will only cause their family’s annihilation.
So, he should now put a stop into his daughter’s fantasy of ever conquering the Robin Hood Society and killing it’s heiress before the table completely turns.
“I’m telling you now! Go into hiding, do not show yourself in the public until the issue subsided, and do not ever accept an interview. Fewer words, fewer mistakes. Understand?!” Her father said in a stern voice before sitting back into his armchair.
Instead of answering, Senator Rizza glared at her father. Then she turned to leave slamming the door leaving her father dismayed. He takes out his phone and dialed a number. “Watch my daughter’s every move. Make sure that she won’t do anything folly.”
He doubts if his daughter will take all his words. He knows his daughter well. He knows that once she is settled in doing something, she would make it happen no matter and whatever it takes.
Meanwhile, after staying in the clinic that morning, J craved for a lasagna. She told Jacob that she wanted lasagna for lunch. “Okay, I’ll have the cook in the cafeteria prepare lasagna for us,” Jacob said.
But J shook her head. “I’d rather prepare it.” That morning, she checked the fridge and the cupboard in the kitchen and find out that it was filled with supplies. It was a dream for someone who loves to cook.
Jacob smiled at his wife. “Okay, whatever pleases my wife.” He said then kissed her forehead. That’s how they separated that morning.
Now, J is done preparing the lasagna for their lunch. She texted Jacob and asked if he is coming already.
“I’m on my way.” He replied.
Indeed, after less than 15 minutes, the door opens and reveals her husband who looks dashing in his white dress shirt, he already unbuttoned the top two buttons. His coat is nowhere to be seen so he must’ve probably left it in the office.
“You’re here.” She said then she stood up from the sofa. She was just casually browsing a magazine that she found under the coffee table.
“I was already on my way when you texted me. I’ve been waiting for your message that for a moment, I thought you’ve forgotten to share your lasagna with me.” Jacob said with a smile then he leaned in to give her a kiss on her lips.
“Hmm…I could already tell that your lasagna tastes delicious.” He said afterward.
“Huh? Don’t expect too much. As far as I remember, I haven’t cooked lasagna for you before.” She said locking her eyes with him. After the short kiss, Jacob wrapped his arms around her waist and hasn’t let go of her yet.
“Well, I’ve already tasted it.” Jacob shrugs his shoulder and pointed at his lips.
At first, J was confused until she finally realized that he must’ve tasted it on her lips. The savory and slightly spicy taste of the sauce must have left her lips after tasting it for one last time before she put it in the oven.
J pouted her lips then followed her husband who had already released her and went to the dining to prepare the table.
J then take out the lasagna that she hasn’t removed from the oven yet to keep it warm.
“Have you seen the news?” Jacob asked while munching on the soft buttery pasta with a perfect combination of seasoned tomatoes, ground meat, and cheese.
“Which news?” J asked nonchalantly.
Jacob laughed. “Honey, you are good at playing innocent. How did you do that?”
J raised her eyes and looked at Jacob impassively. “Honey, I don’t know what you are talking about.”
