When J hung up her phone, she instantly felt her husband's arms wrapped around her body from behind her. She was standing on the balcony of their bedroom when Elijah finally answered her call.

"You are worrying for nothing," Jacob said, which made J instantly turn her body to face him and shoot him an icy glare.
