“Why won’t you let me hug you?” Willow murmured, feeling wronged. “It’s not that. I smell of blood; I need to take a shower first.”
She hurriedly inquired, “Where were you last night?” “I attracted some sharks nearby. That’s why Jett’s men turned back.” He didn’t see the point in hiding anything from her.
“Oho!” Willow was astonished. Even Winston was shocked. It turned out there truly was nothing Jasper couldn’t do in this world. He actually managed to do something like this!
Nonetheless, Willow still rushed into his arms. and hugged his waist. “I don’t mind if you’re dirty. You’re not allowed to push me away.” Jasper smiled helplessly. “Alright, alright.”
Winston, who accidentally witnessed their intimate moment, quickly fled the scene. Jasper returned to where Willow was after taking a nice refreshing shower. On the other hand, Willow had prepared breakfast for him. Then, they spent a romantic time together as they sat in the cabin’s lounge, enjoying the sea view.
She propped her chin and looked at him with her big eyes that possessed the mysterious ability to say everything she was thinking, making him a bit embarrassed.
‘Don’t stare at me,” he complained affectionately in a gentle tone. She blinked. “But… I like looking at you. Is that a crime, Mr. Wyatt?”
This statement carried a hint of flirtation, paired with Willow’s smug smile… Well, it left the man. somewhat speechless..
“It’s your fault for having a face so handsome. In fact, it should be a crime to look this good. Don’t blame me for looking at you!” Willow teasingly pushed the responsibility back to him.
The man couldn’t help but choke slightly at her brazen words, his handsome face and ears turning pink. It seemed that he was still weak to teasing.
“Alright, enjoy your breakfast. I’ll go back to my room to rest for a bit. I didn’t sleep well last night when you were away.” Willow didn’t disturb him any longer.
“Okay!” Jasper nodded. She felt relieved after learning about what happened with Jett’s team. They had decided not to dive and were now changing their focus to search for clues in the mountains.
Since Jett and his team didn’t dare to take their chances underwater, she could delay their actions until her salvage team arrived. Moreover, in order to preserve the artifacts, a team of national archaeologists, along with 20 bodyguards from the Presgrave Family were sent.
They were all working together to safeguard her cause. Three days had passed in the blink of an eye.. As Jett stood on his ship with a pair of binoculars in his hands to watch Willow’s team, he was suddenly filled with worry. Why aren’t her people doing anything? Did she already discover something?
Lately, he had also been filled with anxiety as this expedition had cost him a considerable amount of money. He feared he would go bankrupt if they returned empty-handed. His fortune relied on the valuable artifacts which were supposed to be a surefire source of wealth.
Jett had never once thought he was a good person; he had to figure out Willow’s secret. To do that, he needed to kidnap the person closest to her.
Soon, a pile of photos was placed on Jett’s desk. The photos showed a young and handsome man who stayed with Willow day and night. He was someone closest to her.
“Who is he?”
“We haven’t figured out his identity yet, but he’s the person closest to Willow Presgrave. They have meals and live together. If Willow has any secrets, he’d be the one who knows them best,” reported one of Jett’s subordinates.
He nodded in satisfaction and pointed to the photo. “Then, he will do. Find a chance to bring him to me. I want to ask him some questions.”
Jett couldn’t help but admit that the man in the pictures was charming. I wouldn’t be surprised if he turns out to be Willow’s boyfriend.
Thus, Jett’s phone found the chance to start monitoring Jasper.
Meanwhile, Jasper was bringing some things to the shore on behalf of Willow. The team members here were now more relaxed as they hadn’t received any specific orders. They were simply working for their wages.
After he placed the things down, he noticed someone behind the rocks using binoculars to spy on him. Thus, he feigned ignorance as he deliberately walked to a nearby path, away from the team.
At the same time, Jett’s men immediately gathered their team and took the opportunity to kidnap Jasper.
Jasper walked about a kilometer away, fully aware that someone was following him.
“Hey, you there! Our boss wants to see you. Come with us!” a man threatened in English.
“What if I refuse to cooperate?” Jasper turned around and asked.
“Then, don’t blame us for not holding back.” The man took out a gun and pointed it at Jasper. “You’d better listen to us obediently. I can’t be sure where I might aim my gun next.”
Jasper immediately surrendered by raising his hands and following the group who then took him into Jett’s territory.
Jett was overjoyed that they had easily captured the person closest to Willow. Therefore, he quickly came over just to interrogate Jasper personally.
Jasper was already tied to a chair at this moment. Soon, the interrogation began with only two of Jett’s subordinates present.
“What is your name?”
“You’re not worthy of asking me that,” Jasper replied coldly.
“You should know that cooperating with me now is in your best interest. I’m not a patient man, so answer my question.” He added, “What is your relationship with Willow?”
Still, Jasper only quirked his eyebrow and retorted, “You have no right to know.”
“I-I’m telling you, no one will ever find you if I kill you here and toss your body on another island,” Jett threatened. Unbeknownst to him, the person that he was threatening was someone who excelled in assassination.
“Fine, let’s switch gears. Did you guys make any recent discoveries? Have you found that batch of relics? Just tell me! I can make it worth your while.” Jett decided to entice Jasper.
Jasper stated icily, “I suggest you leave this place and not get in Willow’s way.”
“See here. You are in my hands now. It’s not your turn to threaten me. I’m the one interrogating you.” Jett was so angry he almost went crazy. Jasper was a surprisingly tough opponent!
Alas, there was only a wave of calmness in Jasper’s eyes instead of fear.
“I truly admire your courage. But… if you don’t cooperate with me, I’ll have no choice but to kidnap Miss Presgrave and force something out of her mouth.”
Jasper’s aura seemed to explode out of his body right then and there. “Try laying a finger on her and see what happens,” he snarled.
Jett couldn’t help but step back in fear. When he realized what happened, he quickly coughed to cover his embarrassment. What was he afraid of? This man in front of him was literally bound by a rope and had his hands tied behind his back.
“If you cooperate and tell me what I want to know, I won’t touch Willow Presgrave. It all depends on whether you would work with us,” Jett mentioned as he started another round of questions.
“Have you found those cultural relics? Why are your team members playing around all relaxed and carefree if you haven’t?”
“I’ll say it again: take your men and get out of here, or else. Frankly, you should be worried about your life.”
Jett unconsciously frowned as his patience ran thin. “I see you prefer to do this the hard way. Boy, give him a good beating; I’m sure he’ll confess after that.”
As Jett’s henchmen raised their fists to strike Jasper’s face, the man who had been bound to the chair reached out, blocked the blows, and quickly grabbed the chair. Jett’s henchmen were knocked down one after another with a fierce swing. Jasper exuded a dangerous aura, and it was one filled with killing intent.
Jett’s eyes widened in disbelief as he desperately tried to flee. Unfortunately, Jasper kicked him from behind, sending him crashing into the wall before Jasper pressed him firmly against the wall.
