And so, someone secretly snapped pictures of Willow with their phone. After taking a few front-facing shots, they exchanged a knowing glance. They were determined to get her at any cost tonight.
At that very moment, Jasper appeared at the entrance of the restaurant. Dressed impeccably in a tailored suit, he possessed a good physique-slim when clothed but fit when naked.
Willow was lost in her thoughts when she suddenly heard a familiar male voice ordering. Surprised, she turned her head, and her heart promptly skipped a beat.
Heavens! She had actually bumped into Jasper, who had also arrived. Willow quickly composed herself, hoping to create a fortuitous encounter.
However, just as she was about to wave Jasper over to join her, she realized that he had completely ignored her. Instead, he elegantly sipped his coffee and paid her no attention.
The contrast between Willow’s expectations and reality hit her hard. Did he really not see me, or is he choosing not to see me?
At that moment, Willow’s phone chimed as she had received a message. Even though she was not in the mood to check the message, she still glanced at it and saw the words, ‘I can’t meet you right now.’
A glimmer of joy sparkled in Willow’s beautiful eyes as she looked across at the man opposite her, holding the very phone that he had sent her the message with. ‘How did you get my phone number? Willow asked him.
‘I have my ways, the man wrote back. She paused for a moment, almost forgetting that Jasper was an international secret agent with the ability to disable an entire surveillance system.
‘So, are you working right now? Is that woman who was with you earlier your colleague or your girlfriend? Willow started chatting with him on the phone.
‘Colleague,’ he replied. The corners of Willow’s mouth curled up. It looks like I’m right! How could an insensitive guy like him possibly have a girlfriend? Ha! She felt delighted and, with her chin resting on her hand, she stared at the man.
As she continued to gaze, a message notification interrupted her. She couldn’t help but glance at the message. ‘Stop staring at me.” A blush crept up on Willow’s cheeks.
Does he think I’m infatuated with him?
‘Is it a crime to look at you? Indeed, she felt a bit indignant. This man never held back on embarrassing her. ‘No more looking, he commanded.
Because his target was still present, Jasper couldn’t stay here for too long, nor could he let the target know that he knew Willow.
‘Leave the cafe quickly and return to your room. Don’t come out unless necessary, he warned. Upon reading this warning, Willow retorted, ‘Can we stay in touch anytime?’
Even if they couldn’t meet, they could still chat through messages. ‘Yes.’ He gave a short answer. All he wanted at this moment was for her to leave as soon as possible.
A smile appeared on the corners of Willow’s lips when she saw the message. Soon, Jasper urged her, ‘Hurry up and go back to your room!
It was only then that Willow got up and left, unaware that her departure was being observed by two men whose eyes were fixed on her like those of predators. Jasper didn’t notice that as he had his back turned to them, but after Willow left, he pretended to answer a phone call and left as well.
Back in her room, Willow couldn’t help but lie on the bed with a happy expression as she hugged her phone. She could finally stay in touch with him.
Aimee was sitting in front of her computer when Jasper returned to the room. She looked up at the man who had just come in and asked, “Where did you go?” “Nowhere important, Jasper replied as he made his way to his room.
She couldn’t help but follow him. “Jasper, we are partners. You can’t keep anything from me, or we won’t be able to work together.” “Aimee, just focus on your own tasks.” Jasper then closed the door behind him.
Aimee couldn’t stop her chest from rising and falling from anger for a moment. She had been selected as an international agent and was an exceptional young woman.
However, she couldn’t ignore her feelings for Jasper. She had tried repeatedly to restrain herself, and yet, she couldn’t help but pay attention to him.
Her heart wouldn’t calm down whenever they were together. It wasn’t as chaotic when Jasper was fully focused on his work before, but ever since she heard that he had been acting absent-minded after his return to the team, her heart had become restless.
It was because Willow had entered his heart. Jasper having someone he was interested in was making Aimee feel as if something had set her sights on had been stolen from her.
It felt like sh*t. But she also knew that Willow was not just an ordinary woman. After all, Willow Presgrave did come from a formidable family. As such, Aimee hoped that Willow wouldn’t set her heart on Jasper. With her family and background, she could find someone better.
Meanwhile, in the adjacent room, Willow held onto her phone without putting it down. She was trying her best to stop herself from sending a message to Jasper.
However, she was having a tough time holding it in. She had typed out several messages, but she ended up being too timid to send any of them lest she disturbed his work.
Forget it! I’ll just find something else to do! How about going shopping with Mae?
Since she gave me a purse last time, I’ll accompany her to choose some gifts! Willow then made plans with Mae, who gladly accepted. The two of them quickly agreed to meet at the entrance of the lobby.
A man was leaning against the wall, engrossed in a game, when Willow walked out and stood by the elevator.
As soon as he saw Willow, he quickly closed the game interface and sent a message to his partner. The target is out. I’ll follow her, and you come later.
When Willow entered the elevator, the man hurriedly approached her and apologized. “Oh, excuse me. I’m heading down as well.”
Willow flashed him an unguarded smile and continued to message Mae. “I’m coming down. My bodyguards’ car is at the entrance.”
Willow and Mae only got into the car and left after they met up in the lobby. Behind them, a black SUV followed closely.
Although they noticed Willow had a bodyguard with her, they took the risk of kidnapping this beautiful woman as a tribute in order to please their boss.
As individuals who were involved in international high-stakes matters, they were not afraid of any consequences.
Meanwhile, Jasper was in his room on his computer when a sudden whimsical thought prompted him to open a document. He clicked on today’s surveillance footage and fast- forwarded to the part where
Willow left her room.
He watched as she walked out, lingered for a few seconds in front of his door, and stared at the door before she headed toward the cafe.
Jasper’s gaze remained fixed on Willow even after she went into the cafe. He observed her standing at the service counter, ordering coffee, and choosing a seat.
Even without any filters, she exuded a timeless elegance that captivated him. Her every move reflected the demeanor of a refined lady.
At that moment, Jasper noticed a pair of eyes in the footage, staring at Willow as a predator would. Jasper’s sharp eyebrows furrowed as he realized it was his target, Bucky.
Bucky stared at Willow intensely, his gaze akin to that of a wolf, while conversing with his henchmen. His expression revealed a touch of obscenity.
Jasper quickly turned up the volume and put on his earphones to listen to Bucky and his henchmen. He overheard Bucky saying, “Good. 1 want her tonight.”
Quickly, Jasper increased the playback speed. and looked closely through the footage. As expected, he saw one of Bucky’s henchmen waiting for Willow at the elevator entrance.
Jasper felt nervous because Willow left the hotel fifteen minutes ago, and Bucky’s men had already begun following her. Without hesitation, he closed his laptop and immediately grabbed his gear before leaving.
Meanwhile, Aimee was in the hall when she saw Jasper and quickly asked, “Jasper, where are you going?” “I’m heading out to follow Bucky’s men. Once he finished saying that, he was already out the door.
Jasper had already inserted a tracker inside the phone belonging to one of Bucky’s men, so he quickly tracked that person’s current location. At that point, a black SUV sped out of the underground parking lot. Seeing that the target was currently in a shopping mall, he guessed Willow must also be there.
