After cleaning and processing it, she discovered that it contained a documented. segment of true history. Due to this historical account being overlooked in historical records, someone had documented it in the parchment scroll. After researching it, it was indeed a well-preserved parchment that had survived for a thousand years.
The record clearly stated that a high-ranking official set sail with eighteen large ships a thousand years ago to visit another country. His ships were laden with treasures and crew members, but they disappeared at a place called Elysian Island. Since then, they have used various modern technologies to trace the island’s whereabouts. Eventually, they pinpointed the location where the official vanished on a map.
Not only that, they also received information that artifact smugglers had set their sights on this island. As cultural heritage workers, they would be competing with multiple groups of international artifact smugglers to be the first to find the island and protect the artifacts on it. Furthermore, at Willow’s urging, they would return all the millennia-old cultural relics belonging to the country.
For Willow, it wasn’t just a job, but her way of contributing to the country’s cultural heritage. How could she be absent? “Alright. I’m leaving right away,” she answered.
“We’ll be waiting. Time is of the essence. We received confidential information that the artifact smugglers have already sent out their people.”
“Understood. See you then,” Willow replied. After hanging up the phone, Willow went to talk to her parents about this. She had brought this up with them before, so Elliot and Anastasia didn’t stop her from doing what she wanted to do.
“However, there’s one rule you must abide by. You must let the bodyguards stay by your side at all times to protect you.” “Got it, Dad! I’ll be sure to keep myself safe.” Willow nodded earnestly.
Elliot assigned two female bodyguards to stay. with Willow at all times and arranged for six additional male bodyguards who would hang around in the vicinity to protect her. He was going to keep an eye on his daughter’s every move too and was ready to rush over immediately if there was any danger.
Willow was worried that the smugglers would succeed in finding and looting the cultural relics. before they got there, so she couldn’t afford to waste any more time. Although she also wanted to spend more time with her parents and couldn’t bear to part with Jasper while he was still in the country, she had to set those feelings aside for work.
Before leaving, Willow sent a text to Jasper. ‘I’m leaving for work. Let’s meet up when I come back.” At this moment, Jasper was resting in a safe house. Due to his mission, he hadn’t had any proper sleep in almost three days..
However, when he heard his phone beeping, he immediately opened his eyes, picked up his phone, and sat up. He saw the text from Willow. ‘Where are you going?’ Jasper texted back.
I’m heading to the coastal area along the border between Yelina and Koska. My team and I are heading out on a mission to protect cultural artifacts. I’m on my way to the airport now. See you!”
‘See you.’ After sending the text, he swiftly got up and started working on his laptop, but he wasn’t doing official work for the organization. It was a private matter.
Soon, he had hacked into the database of the Bureau of International Cultural Heritage where Willow worked, and retrieved information. regarding Willow’s assignment. There was a parchment scroll which was the agreement regarding the ownership of the cultural artifacts’ protection rights, and Willow’s signature was on it.
So… it was Willow who initiated the cultural artifacts protection operation. I underestimated the nature of her work. Despite being a young woman, she actually wields a lot of power at work. Her work is very meaningful too. Jasper dialed his uncle’s private number.
“Hello?”
“Uncle, I need you to do me a favor.” “You’re actually asking me for a favor? Go ahead and tell me what you need!” This was a first for Antoine Wyatt.
“I want to join the Bureau of International Cultural Heritage and complete a private mission. Arrange an identity for me-one with authority.”
“What? Have you started taking on private jobs now? Did you run out of money? Have you used up the billions your parents left you?” Antoine asked incredulously. “No! I’m just protecting someone.” “Who? Is it a man or a woman?”
“Just send me the details before 3.00PM. I’m hanging up now, Uncle.” “You brat. Is this the attitude you take when you’re asking someone else for help?”
Jasper ended the call before Antoine could carry on complaining. Alas, Antoine’s words had stirred up the secret that Jasper buried deep within him.
Twenty years ago, a tragedy occurred in this very city. Carl Wyatt, the founder of a company worth billions, and his wife were both murdered by their enemies. Their only son miraculously survived, but he disappeared and so did the billions the family left behind.Books
Twenty years later, a similar tragedy was reported in a foreign newspaper. Three wealthy men had died at a party on a yacht. The police released the photos which showed that the three had died horrific deaths. It looked as if they had been brutally interrogated before being executed.
That had been Jasper’s first mission after leaving the special forces. He personally avenged his parents’ death. He had only been 21 years old at the time and the organization. detained him for two years because of his actions. In the end, his uncle rescued him, and after an intensive selection process, he was selected to join the special operations unit. For five years, he excelled at his job and none of his missions ended in failure, and his stellar record led to him becoming a team leader.
The Presgraves’ private plane took off from the airport runway and soared into the sky. Half an hour later, a tall man in a hoodie went through the security checks at the airport. He now had a new identity- Hugh Wyatt, a special representative from the International Cultural Heritage Research Institute.
Willow’s plane arrived at the rendezvous point. It was a dock as they would be taking a boat to the first island. They would be visiting seven islands in total. The place was called the Seven Star Archipelago because it looked like seven stars dotted along the ocean when seen from the sky, which was a spectacular sight indeed.
Up to now, they had very limited information about the place. All they had were the information recorded on that piece of parchment. However, the parchment had been found in the ancient tomb of an extremely famous prime minister in history. Therefore, the information on it was most likely accurate, and that was the reason why Willow and the others were willing to invest their time and money to take this risk. The mission of protecting cultural artifacts was a daunting and challenging one.
They had to possess unwavering determination in the face of obstacles. Willow was a capable leader. She formed the team in just three months and was also able to recruit an archaeology professor for additional support.
“Nice to meet you, Professor Ledford.” As soon as Willow entered the hotel, she paid a visit to the professor who was highly acclaimed in the field of archaeology.
“You’ve worked hard, Miss Presgrave. It is our country’s honor to have people like you. protecting our nation’s cultural heritage!” Cosmo Ledford also showed great admiration for Willow. Despite her young age, she had already made quite a name for herself in the field of cultural artifact preservation.
“Not at all. This is what we should do. Since we’ve taken up this responsibility, we can’t give up so easily, Willow declared with a smile. Now. that she was away from her parents’ protection and her identity as the Presgraves’ daughter, she was able to be herself and show maturity when it came to interacting with others.
“Very good. It’s a blessing for our country that we have the younger generation who can take over from the older generation, Cosmo complimented.
The team leader, Cameron Torrez, came over to greet Willow as well. He had extensive experience in archaeological exploration. Willow paid out of pocket to hire him, and he did take the mission very seriously as he made sure everything was well-prepared. “We should be leaving now, right, Mr. Torrez?” Willow asked him.
“Wait just a little longer, Willy. One of our team members hasn’t arrived yet.” “There’s someone who’s even later than me?” Willow asked in surprise. She thought she would’ve been the last as she was three days late in checking the email.
“We just heard the news that we have an additional special representative from the international research institute. It’s someone named Hugh Wyatt. We have to wait for him.”
“Hugh Wyatt? I don’t think I’ve heard that name before.” Willow was startled. She had spent two years at the international research institute and met everyone worth noting during her time. there.
Furthermore, he had to be holding quite an important position if he could join her team at the drop of a hat! “Alright. Let’s wait for him! I’ll go over the map with the others first.” “Sure. I’ll bring him over to you once he arrives,” Cameron said.
Half an hour later, a taxi pulled up outside the hotel. Once it came to a stop, the door opened and a man with a black backpack stepped out. He was wearing sunglasses, and the first thing that struck people was the powerful aura that emanated from him.
It was as if this man was bursting with a kind of force that was terrifying and not to be underestimated. As for his appearance, the expressions of the young women who had just arrived made it clear. They had forgotten all. about their luggage as they stared at him in at daze. Oh, my! They did not think they would be meeting such a handsome man at their hotel.
He’s so handsome! So stylish! His face is flawless! Jasper’s long legs made quick work of the short trip into the lobby. It just so happened that one of the team members was sitting there, and he couldn’t help but come forward and ask, “Excuse me. Are you Mr. Hugh Wyatt?”
“Yes. I am.” Jasper nodded. “You’re finally here. Come this way, please. I’ll take you over to our team leader.” Cosmo swiftly came over to greet Jasper, and then he said, “Let me introduce you to one more person, Mr. Wyatt! She has been looking forward to meeting you.”
The corners of Jasper’s mouth curved up ever so slightly. “Is that so? Do lead the way.”
Willow and some of the other team members were busy poring over the map of the islands with a magnifying glass as they tried to find clues regarding the exact location based on geomancy and astrological calculations.
She was still busy with her thoughts when the door opened. She didn’t turn around because she thought it was probably just one of the students who came in. However, Cameron’s voice rang out behind her. “Willow, the special representative, Mr. Hugh Wyatt, is here.”
Willow finally set the magnifying glass down and turned around to look at the newcomer with a polite smile. Her expression went from shock to joy in mere seconds and she nearly threw herself at him.
It was the meaningful look from him that made her compose herself. She cleared her throat and walked over to greet him courteously. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Wyatt. I’m Willow Presgrave, the sponsor of this archaeological expedition.” Willow held her hand out..
Jasper shook it and said, “I’m Hugh Wyatt, the special representative.” His crisp, deep, and magnetic voice drew the attention of three young women on the team. Oh, my! What a young and handsome special representative! Willow smiled. “Can I speak to you in private, Mr. Wyatt?”
“Of course.”
“Please come with me to my room.” Willow walked off. Jasper followed close behind. Willow opened the door and gestured for him to go in which he readily did. As soon as Willow closed the door, she threw herself at the man and flung her arms around his neck. “Why did you come here?” she couldn’t help but ask.
Jasper held her by the waist to save her from exerting herself. He “I’m on my break right now so I came here to protect you.”
