Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel
Suddenly, she remembered Jasper’s words from last night, saying that they would meet soon. He didn’t bother telling me in advance that he’d be coming here today. That’s a bit infuriating.
She immediately went to her closet to find an outfit, applied makeup, and dressed up before heading downstairs.
Meanwhile, downstairs, Elliot and Jasper had wrapped up their conversation.
At this moment, from the direction of the stairs, Willow descended in an elegant dress. As her gaze met Jasper’s, she glared at him with a touch of annoyance. Yet, he maintained a serious expression, keeping his emotions hidden. He politely greeted her. “Good morning, Miss Presgrave.”
When Sirius turned his head and glanced at his colleague, he couldn’t help but feel happy for him. Gaining the favor of Miss Presgrave is truly a fortunate event for him.
Though irritated, Willow was still happy deep down. She greeted him back seriously. “Good morning, Mr. Wyatt.”
“Would you both stay for lunch?” Elliot invited.
“We’ll have to take a rain check. We have other matters to attend to. Please advise your family not to go out unless necessary during this period, Mr. Presgrave,” Sirius said.
“Understood. Thank you both for protecting the Presgrave Family.”
“You’re too kind,” Sirius replied humbly.
“I’ll see you off.” Willow seized the opportunity to see them out.
With a smile, Sirius picked up his phone. “I’ll make a call first.” With that, he walked out first.
Jasper turned back and politely bid farewell. “We’ll take our leave, Mr. Presgrave.”
“Willow, why don’t you see Jasper off?” Elliot purposely changed his address.
Hearing that, Willow felt a burst of joy. It seems Dad really likes Jasper. His address to Jasper has even become informal.
As she escorted Jasper out, her nerves were taut. She looked at him with worry. “Please be careful. The people attacking our family this time aren’t ordinary.”
Jasper turned around to look at Willow. “You also need to be good and not wander around.”
“I know. I won’t cause you any trouble.” She nodded. Never had she thought that she would need his help to deal with her family’s matters.
Since Sirius had already entered the car, Jasper needed to leave as well. He patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. With me here, I won’t let anything happen to you or your family.”
However, she tightly held his hand in worry. “You must not let anything happen to you too.”
His gaze was deep as he looked at her. He had never feared anything before, feeling that his life was born for his mission. But now, he started to feel fear. He was afraid that if something happened to him, he would never see her again.
“Alright. I promise nothing will happen to me,” he said.
Yet she remained deeply concerned. If only they weren’t in her home, she would’ve given him a hug, but since they were here, she refrained from getting too intimate with him. Until my family fully accepts him, I can’t put any pressure on him.
“I’ll leave now.” Jasper turned and walked toward the car. After getting in, he rolled down the window, holding her gaze for a few seconds before departing.
Following that, the security personnel at the Presgrave Residence became more active. At the moment, Anastasia was attending a jewelry show abroad when chaos suddenly broke out at the venue.
After Elliot finished a call with his wife at home, his face was filled with worry. He stepped quickly outside and saw his daughter still in the garden, so he hurried over. “Willow, I need to leave the country for a while. Stay home and keep Jared and Ellen company.”
“Did something happen to Mom?” Willow was also deeply worried.
“Some trouble broke out at the venue of the show. The entire place is under strict control now. I need to go get her and bring her home.”
“Be careful, Dad. Don’t worry about me. I’ll take care of Ellen and the others.” She reassured her father.
Immediately, Elliot set off to rescue his wife. Before leaving, he called Jasper.
“Hello, Mr. Presgrave?” Jasper answered the call.
“Jasper, I’m going abroad now. I’ll leave my daughter and son with you.”
“Should I arrange for someone to escort you?”
“No need. I’ll entrust matters at home to you. Jasper, I hope you can stay at my house and take care of them.” Elliot immediately hung up after saying that.
Subsequently, Jasper dialed Willow’s number, and she promptly answered, “Hello?”
“I just received a call from your dad. He’s going abroad. Is it just you and your sister-in-law at home now?”
“Yes, my brother is at the company. It’s just me, my sister-in-law, and my nephew at home.”
“Can I stay at your house?” he asked in a low voice. He had decided to provide close protection for them.
“Of course. Please come over. We need you.”
After he discussed it with Sirius, a plan was confirmed. Jasper would stay at the Presgrave Residence as a bodyguard, while Sirius would act separately since operating individually was their most skilled method of attack.
Soon, Jasper packed a bag and headed to the Presgrave Residence. A maid led him into the living room, where Willow personally welcomed him.
“You’re here.” A hint of shyness appeared on her face, but her happiness was unmistakable.
At that moment, her sister-in-law, Ellen, descended the stairs, carrying her son. She looked at the outstanding young man beside Willow, feeling genuinely pleased for her. He must be the young man Willow has talked to me about. He truly has a remarkable presence.
After Willow’s return, she chatted with Ellen about the cultural heritage adventure. They were both young people, so there was naturally nothing they couldn’t discuss. While attending an awards ceremony, Ellen had briefly met him before, but she had been too hasty to get a clear view.
“Ellen, let me introduce you. This is the Mr. Wyatt I mentioned to you before,” Willow said, then turned to Jasper. “This is my sister-in-law, Ellen, and my adorable nephew.”
Jasper nodded at Ellen. “Hello, Mrs. Presgrave.”
“Hello. Thanks for coming,” Ellen politely said.
“I’ve arranged a room for you. Let me show you upstairs,” Willow offered.
However, Jasper shook his head. “I’ll stay in the guards’ residence.”
Willow felt a bit disappointed. “Can’t you stay in my house?”
