I know you have something that works but I'd like to caution you to avoid using JavaScript to fetch the value of the element, in fact in general it should be avoided when doing your tests except when there is no other way to do what you want to do. The reason is that Selenium is supposed to behave as a typical user would. Typical users don't type JavaScript into a page or interact with it directly. This goes extra for using jQuery as your tests should not assume that jQuery exists on the page and is functioning. Selenium itself provides the ability to fetch the values of fields so I'd recommend you rewrite your code to something like:
driver.FindElement(By.Id("j_idt13:JNumber")).GetAttribute("value");
