J takes a deep breath before she turned to Mrs. Potters and said, "Mrs. Potters you do know that the way you look at me makes me uncomfortable, right? What it is that you wanted to say?"
The old lady narrowed her eyes and said, "You didn't tell me that your husband is the CEO of CLP Group of Hospitals."
"You didn't ask," J replied nonchalantly.
Mrs. Potters chuckled then said, "You didn't tell me that he is good looking." with a smile on her face.
J rolled her eyes and said, "That's irrelevant."
"I think... no... I'm certain that he likes you." Mrs. Potters said while giving her a fascinated look.
J chuckled and gave her a sardonic smile. How she wishes that it is true. But their situation is quite peculiar. Her identity is mysterious to him. What if he found out that she is an heiress of an underground society? Is it possible for him to like her? Given the fact that her identity might ruin the reputation of his family?
Mrs. Potters seize the opportunity to report to J the current status of the Lodgepole Estate since J wasn't able to stay there for long the last time she visited.
Then after a couple more hours, Mrs. Potters bid her goodbye and wished to see her in the Lodgepole Estate in her coming days off.
J was left in her apartment. Since she was able to finish all of the chores that morning with the help of Mrs. Potters who insisted on helping her, she still has a couple more hours left before she goes to the hospital for her duty.
With nothing to do, she sits on the sofa and turned on the TV. A piece of breaking news flashed on the TV. It was a ribbon cutting on one of the newest government establishment that has been built just recently. On the screen of the TV, J saw a familiar face who's cutting the ribbon. It is Mark Sloane. The husband of Leticia Parker Sloane.
The first time they met at the Parker's Mansion she sensed a peculiar look from him. Then she remembered to call Lance.
"Hey! How's your married life? I was starting to get sulky realizing that you have forgotten about me because of your husband." Lance said on the other line pouting his lips.
J ignored him and rolled her eyes then said, "I want you to investigate someone for me."
Lance is not just her personal lawyer but also her personal investigator. If Peter is President Martin's right hand, Leo is Madam Victoria's, Lance is her's. But unlike Peter and Leo who was always with the President and Madam, Lance is always hidden and does his job behind the scene.
Of course, that is to protect J. It would seem weird for an ordinary nurse to have someone following her wherever she goes. That's why since Lance and J were back from abroad, they rarely see each other and had a communication only thru phone and email.
Lance being ignored was already used to J's attitude then said, "Oh... Okay. Who could that be?"
"Mark Sloane." J shortly replied.
"Hmm...Mark Sloane. The politician?" Lance asked.
"Mm..." was J's short reply still looking at the man on the TV screen.
The old lady narrowed her eyes and said, "You didn't tell me that your husband is the CEO of CLP Group of Hospitals."
"You didn't ask," J replied nonchalantly.
