Chapter 2301

Upon hearing the doorbell, Willow sighed and straightened Jasper’s collar while admonishing, “Be

careful and remember to text me. I want to know you’re safe.”

Jasper nodded in assurance. Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, Willow quickly tiptoed

and planted a kiss on his cheek. Then she grabbed her bag and slipped away like a sneaky cat making

its swift exit.

Her bodyguards were already waiting outside when she opened the door, standing in formation. Willow

walked out like nothing had happened, carrying her bag, and said to the bodyguards,” Come on, take

me home.”

Once Willow and the bodyguards were out of sight, Jasper quickly stepped out as well. He pressed the

elevator button and went down to the underground parking lot. As he arrived, he saw Willow’s

bodyguard car just pulling out. He swiftly got into his own car, starting it to follow the vehicle ahead.

After exiting the hotel, Jasper, who initially drove toward the safe house, suddenly changed his mind

and followed Willow’s convoy of bodyguards. He couldn’t rest easy unless he saw her safely home at

the Presgrave Residence with his own eyes, but just then, his phone rang.

He put on his Bluetooth earpiece and answered, “Hello, are you out of danger?” Aimee’s voice came

through, “I’ve arrived at the safe house. Where are you?”

“I need a little more time.” “Hurry back, Jasper. If Wells’ henchmen can replace me, they can surely replace

you too. If you keep being with Miss Presgrave, you’ll get her killed. Aimee spoke mercilessly. At that,

Jasper hit the brakes and pulled over by the side of the street amidst the drizzling rain. Her words sent

a sharp pain in his heart.

Meanwhile, Willow’s convoy made a U-turn ahead, swiftly driving past from the adjacent street. From

Jasper’s vantage point, the three imposing black SUVS blocked his view, but he knew that without his

protection, Willow would be safer.

The call was still connected, and Aimee spoke from the other end, offering advice, “Jasper, if you want

Miss Presgrave to be safe, you have to stay away from her. You should know this better than I do.”

“I know. I’m coming back now.” Jasper shifted his gaze to the rearview mirror, his eyes more profound

than midnight. The tender feelings he had when he was with Willow seemed to be shrouded in a chill

as rationality and clarity. occupied his heart.

The black SUVs charged forward without hesitation, just like his resolute heart. In the safe house,

Aimee sat on the couch, watching him. She smiled, stood up, and greeted him, “You’re back.” After

speaking, she sized him up as if searching for subtle traces of a woman on Jasper.

“Our people have found those weapons and are sending someone to destroy them. This should anger

Bucky. He wants both of us dead now. The organization thinks there’s no need to keep this person

alive. We are to stay here and deal with these people,’ Aimee said.

Jasper nodded, sat on the couch, and took his laptop. The first thing he hacked into was the

surveillance of the hotel where Willow was staying. When he saw that Bucky’s men had indeed been to

that hotel and had also been outside Willow’s room, a fierce ruthlessness flashed in Jasper’s eyes as

he stared at the man appearing in the video, his intent to kill strong.

At that, he went to the armory and opened a wall. After retrieving some equipment, he was off. “Where

are you going this time?” Aimee asked with a quirked brow, having observed all of this.

“To complete the mission.” Jasper was the type to let his actions speak for himself. Once he set his

sights on a target, he had complete confidence in eliminating them. So, those targeted by Jasper

should feel fear and tremble. “You’re going alone?” She reached out to stop. him. “The organization

wants us to act together.”

“You stay here and rest. I’ll handle the mission.” “I want to go with you.” Aimee looked at him with

worried eyes. “I know you want to protect Miss Presgrave, but I also want to protect you.”
