Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 2319

Chapter 2319

Four of the bodyguards stayed, while the other four quickly went to Jasper’s rescue.

Since Jasper couldn’t pass, he got out of the car, and already he was surrounded by two dozen angry

male locals who were young and lean. They were roaring angrily and hurling stones at him. Jasper

defended himself as murder flared in his eyes.

The air of bloodlust that surrounded him squeezed the locals by their throats, and their roars quickly

became whimpers, then whispers, then… nothing. The clan leader got out of the car and pointed at

Jasper. He said something in the local tongue that whipped his lackeys into action.

It was perhaps the enticement of great reward, so a couple of men with bats stepped ahead, but Jasper

snatched their weapons away and easily beat them down. Everyone else quickly charged at him. At the

same time, Willow’s bodyguards arrived, and they quickly formed a protective circle around Jasper.

“We’ll cut a way through,” said Jasper.

“Yes, sir.” The bodyguards saw no other way out.

The battle began. Jasper and the bodyguards were outnumbered at least four to one. Everyone was on

the deck, watching the battle through telescopes. Worry took over their minds, and their hearts raced.

It was then they realized that Jasper was actually more skilled than he looked. Not even Willow’s

bodyguards could fight as well as he could. He was fast, precise, and deadly. In just a moment, a few

locals were already rolling on the ground and howling in pain.

Jasper’s attacks were lethal. In just fifteen minutes, all the locals were already on the ground, out of

commission. Scared out of his wits, the clan leader quickly got back into his car and drove away.

Jasper got into his car and took the bodyguards back to the ship. Everyone welcomed them with a

round of applause. Willow dashed forward and threw her arms around Jasper even when everyone

was watching.

Everyone smiled. When Willow realized what she was doing, she blushed and held Jasper’s arm. “Let’s

go to our room. I’ll need to see if you’re hurt.”

“I’m not,” Jasper muttered.

“Just let me check. You didn’t even tell me when you were hurt,” Willow grumbled. He had hidden his

bruised hand from her earlier.

Willow dragged him away just like that, and Winston told the captain to steer the boat away in case the

locals came back with more vitriol. Ten minutes later, the boat had left the pier and made its way to the

open sea. That was their next destination.

Once they went back to the room, Willow closed the door and ordered, “Take off your clothes.”

Jasper couldn’t say no, so he took off his shirt right in front of her, revealing his beautiful muscles,

perfectly chiseled torso, and taut rear. He looked like a sculpture. At the same time, Willow noticed a

few red marks on his back. He fought bare handed, so the locals got some hits in.

“Oh, your back’s hurt. I need to put some salve on it.” Willow observed him seriously, staring at his half-

naked body without a care. She was genuinely checking on him and nothing else.

However, Jasper was starting to feel his heart squeezing up from all the touching Willow was doing,

and he tensed up. She does know she’s making life hard for me, right?

After the checkup, Willow said, “Get showered. I’ll deal with the injuries in a bit, and then it’s time to

sleep.”

Jasper took a shower while Willow told her bodyguard to get her some salve. When she went outside

to get the meds, everyone asked her about Jasper’s situation. They were treating her as if she was his

girlfriend.

She was a little delighted. Even though they weren’t a couple just yet, things might change in the

future.

Sounds of flowing water meandered across the air, and Willow was imagining Jasper taking a shower.

More specifically, she was imagining his stark naked body, and her cheeks burned up. Quickly, she

went out to the balcony for some fresh air.

When she came back, Jasper was only wearing a pair of long casual pants. She approached him with

a smile. “Sit on the couch. I’ll deal with your injuries.”
