《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 20 Trouble in Disguise
Advertisement
Jamie and Jacob reached the hospital within half an hour. Jamie hurriedly got of the car and without waiting for Jacob rushed to the reception and asked for Charles. The receptionist looked into her computer and within a minute told the room number, Jamie thanked her and without looking back ran towards the given room number. Her heart had been racing until she reached the hospital and now she was desperate to meet him. The tears she had controlled since so long begin to flow again as she entered the room seeing Charles badly injured. Charles passed a wide smile seeing her but she kept crying.
After a long pause of emotional moment Charles finally spoke "Will you keep standing there."
She moved her head in a no and quickly ran to him and hugged him soon after Jacob entered the room. Jamie could feel an awkward atmosphere building up as none of them spoke so she broke the silence "Charles he is the one who saved us" she thought for a while thinking about his name and then she realized that they did not have any formal introduction so Jamie looked at him apologetically saying "Sorry I did not ask for your name."
He smiled and replied "It's OK, you were so worried about your husband and it is natural that you would not ask, so let me in myself I am Jacob Black."
Both of them were taken aback listening to his name because he was the richest man whom nobody had ever seen then after a long pause Charles spoke "Mr. Black, thank you so much for saving us. "
"I found a such a beautiful lady lying unconscious in the forest surrounded by so many men, how could I leave her alone and then you were in such a bad state, it was my duty to help. Now that I have helped this lady, I will see myself out."

Jamie stood up smiling and said "You have helped us a lot why don't you come to our home for dinner some day."
"I will be glad to." then they exchanged the phone numbers and Jamie spoke "Let me see you out."
"Sure"
Jamie returned happily to the room and sat next to Charles, they chatted the whole night and Jamie fell asleep next to him.
Jacob went home after Jamie saw him off but he was actually disturbed by the thought that how could Jamie not even look at him for once when all the girls were ready to do anything to get in bed with him. He would always avoid people like these but he had fallen for Jamie since he first saw her and seeing her hug Charles made him so angry that he drove his car at a high speed and wished that he had never saved that person.
As he reached home he rushed to his room and randomly threw away things in his room finally giving a loud sigh he hopped into his bed. After thinking something he called his secretary and asked him to find every detail about Jamie as he made up his mind to have her in his life so he spoke to himself "Jamie I will use every method I can to make you mine."
