Jacob held her wrist carefully in his hand and then picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. The cut was not very deep so he bandaged it carefully and called the doctor to have a look at it. He panicked until the doctor came but he said the same thing that it was a minor injury and she would wake up soon, he gave her an injection to prevent from infections and then taking a look once again he left.
Jacob went to the kitchen, hid all the knives and made a call to have few maids in the villa. Earlier he had thought of staying there with her alone but now seeing the situation, he needed protection. The maids arrived within half an hour and he assigned them to do all the work then he told 2 of them to prepare for lunch.
When Jamie woke up he asked one of the maids to prepare a bowl of soup and then he went to sit besides Jamie on the bed speaking in an authoritative voice "How dare you try to kill yourself."
She decided to remain cold to him and spoke coldly "What exactly do you like in me."
"I love you, I love your face, your body and everything."
"So it is about the face, trust me I won't let you get anything you want so I will destroy this face."
She looked around and she found a knife in the fruit basket on the side table. She quickly grabbed it and before Jacob could stop her she scratched her face. Her face went pale, she could feel the pain but she would do anything to stay away from him. She desperately took the knife to her face for another cut but Jacob held her hand before that, he snatched the knife and of his hand and slapped her tightly that she fell on the bed. Jacob lay on top of her holding her by her wrists he spoke with eyes full of anger "Are you insane, what do you think you are doing."

He laughed with tears in her eyes because of the pain "You love my face so I am destroying it because I can't let you get what you love."
His eyes were filled with more anger so he desperately landed a hard kiss on her lips. Jamie tried to struggle out of his grip and the more she tried, the more ruthless his kiss grew until her lips were bleeding too. When he finally let go, Jamie breathed heavily trying to catch her breath struggling with the pain all over her body. Jacob called the doctor again and then went back to Jamie and spoke with the same ruthless voice "I won't let you die and neither will I let you harm yourself. I will spend as much money as I can to get your face fixed without leaving a scar. You are my princess and I won't let you go away easily."
Soon the doctor came in and treated her face, prescribing her some medication which she had to take in front of the doctor. As the doctor left, the soup was brought in which Jamie refused to take.
Jacob was about to hit her when he thought of something else and smiled "I am asking you for the last time are you sure you are not eating that."
"I won't."
He smiled and nodded the took the soup bowl in his hand and put a spoonful of soup in his mouth then he held Jamie by her cheeks and with his mouth he forced the soup into her mouth which almost choked her but she came to her senses, snatched the bowl from his hand and started eating on her own. He smiled "I can make you do things so don't try to go against me."

She lowered her head but he continued to speak "I will leave first, finish the soup and rest well, I have some work to do so we will have dinner together."
She still did not respond so Jacob smiled and left feeling accomplished.
