The Robin Hood Society (Jacob And The Heiress) - Chapter 655
Meanwhile, J knew what was going on when everyone left leaving Daniel behind to watch over her.
But she didn’t mind because she has visitors that kept her preoccupied.
Hannah Li insisted on visiting her when she found out about the assassination attempt a couple of days ago. She brought her daughter with her.
This is probably the reason why Daniel didn’t mind it when he was left with her.
J let Daniel with his wife and baby daughter in their house. She was sure that Jacob wouldn’t mind. She even prepared dinner for the family which the latter was hesitant at first but in the end, they chose to eat since J will be eating with them as well and it would seem rude and awkward if they would just stand there and watch her eat alone.
J is now holding the baby girl in her hand. And she just cannot hide the fondness in her eyes.
“She’s so beautiful,” J whispered afraid that she would wake the baby that has fallen asleep in her hands. J always thought that babies are the purest form of life on the earth. They are as pure as an angel.
Hannah Li smiled. “Yes, she is. I see you have the gift of calming them.”
“Huh?” J looked at Hannah innocently.
“The moment you had her in your arms, she eventually stopped crying and falls asleep.” Hannah Li chuckled.
“Oh, is that so?” J said nonchalantly because she never thought of that. This was the first time that she ever held a baby in her arms since Timothy. And Timothy is now 4-year old.
“And you look good with a baby. Am I right, sweetheart?” Hannah said then she glanced at Daniel who was just silently sitting on a chair watching them.
“Hmm.” Daniel, a man of few words nodded his head.
J felt delighted and shy at the same time. “Don’t you have any plans of having a baby yet?” Hannah Li suddenly asked making her blush.
J looked at the direction of Daniel and Daniel eventually understands that this is girl talk. So, he excused himself and decided to stay at Jacob’s office instead.
“We have…” J said after Daniel left them. “But we haven’t been blessed.” J smiled shyly while her gaze is fixed on the baby in her arms.
J doesn’t know how to identify who a baby looks like if it is the father or the mother. And since the baby in her hand is a beautiful girl, she thinks that she looked like her mother. She looks so soft and sweet, unlike Daniel who is kind of impassive and stern.
“Don’t worry. You are still young. You’ll be blessed one of these days.” Hannah Li said as if she was sure of it.
“By the way, I’ve heard about the assassination attempt. I’m glad that you are safe.” Hannah Li said.
She is a conversant person, J thought internally and she was thankful because if it wasn’t for that, it would be a little awkward since she doesn’t know how to start a conversation.
“Yeah. I’m sorry that I put Daniel’s life in danger.” J said apologetically.
“Don’t feel guilty about it, it is our job to protect people. And it is not their fault that they need protection. It’s just that there are people who cannot accept how other people show their kindness unconventionally.” Hannah Li smiled to console her.
By the way, she speaks. J could tell that Hannah is an open-minded person.
J was enjoying chatting with Hannah Li that she didn’t mind that she is holding the baby in her arms for a long time already. Hannah wanted to take the baby from her afraid that her arms might sore after holding the baby for too long but J insisted that it was fine.
She hasn’t held a baby close to her for long that she became excited about it. As a nurse, she was never assigned to the OB or the pediatric ward, so she never had a chance to cuddle a baby.
At the OR, she was able to pull out a baby from her mother’s womb but she would have to pass the baby eventually to its pedia. Not lasting a minute in her arm. They were not even allowed to hold the baby closer to their chest.
Suddenly, the door was opened from the outside.
Jacob entered followed by Daniel behind. His heart melted at the sight of his wife holding a baby in her arms. Thou the baby is not hers, the sight was so beautiful and it made him excited about the future.
J smiled at Jacob not knowing how Jacob feels at that moment. “Hey, you’re here,” J said. Thou she has been calling Jacob ‘Honey’ whenever they are alone. She was still shy in calling him that way in the presence of others.
