As Elliot led Willow into their home, she was instantly wrapped in a hug by Anastasia who had promptly dashed over
across the living room. Anastasia had been terrified and there was not a calm moment in her life ever since the
instant she heard Willow had gone missing. Now that Willow was finally standing before her, whole and healthy, she
finally stopped worrying.
“I’m fine, Mom! I’m alright.” Willow hugged Anastasia back, feeling guilty about her reckless actions that led to
giving her parents a scare.
“Jared and Ellen even called to ask after you. Remember to call them back later so that they’ll stop worrying,”
Anastasia said. All these years, they had kept Willow well-protected out of fear of what might happen to her.
Willow hummed in assent before cheerfully skipping further into the living room. Elliot wrapped an arm around
Anastasia and kissed her on the top of her head. “Alright now. She’s finally home safe and sound. You don’t have to

“That’s true. Oh, I nearly had to be hospitalized because of my heart,” she exclaimed, looking up at him. Distressed
by that piece of news, he reassuringly said, “As long as I live, our family will be fine.”
Anastasia snuggled into his embrace. “Okay.” Willow returned to her room and called Jared to tell him she was safe.
“Tell me. What exactly happened?” Jared worriedly asked.
“My savior’s name is Jasper Wyatt. He works for an international organization, I encountered some trouble during
the dinner and accidentally interrupted his mission, causing him to lose his target. Because of that, his enemies
tried to kill him. While protecting me, he was shot in the chest. His mission target then decided to target me. I was
intercepted during the journey.” At that thought, she could not resist continuing, “Did you know, Jared? Those
criminals were so very smart. They could actually hack into self- driving cars and make them crash into us. It felt so
much like a scene from the movies.”
Jared chuckled. “It sounds like you were not scared at all.” “I’m not lying,” she protested. She could not help but
think that she was like an unlucky female lead character waiting to be saved by the male lead, Jasper.
“Okay. Well, stay away from dangerous people in the future,” Jared reminded. They were all very worried for her. “I
know, Jared. How is Ellen? When will my little nephew be born?”
“Soon. Probably in a few days. Mom and Dad are all packed up and ready to come back.” “I’ll have to head back as
well then. I have to be there for the birth of my nephew. I’m going to prepare a great present for him,” she happily
said.
Three days later, the Presgraves flew back in their private jet to welcome the birth of the third generation in their
family. The day after their flight, Willow was recovering from jet lag when she suddenly felt breathless in the middle
of her sleep. It felt like something was weighing down on her chest, pressing down on it. Of course, it was not a
ghost or anything supernatural. She was merely having a nightmare.
In her dream, she cried out in a plea for help, “Help me, Jasper!” The moment she called out the name, she felt a
powerful energy wrap around her, saving her. Jasper had appeared in her dream. He reached out to pull her over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSurprised yet overjoyed, she reached back and allowed him to pull her closer. She then felt strong arms wrapping
her in a warm and grounding embrace.
All her fear vanished into thin air. It was then that she opened her eyes. Wide awake, she looked around to find that
she was only wrapped in a blanket. Jasper was nowhere to be seen.
It had all been a dream. Still, the dream she had that afternoon felt so very real that she thought it had actually
happened. It felt like he had been in the room with her.
Her heart sank with disappointment. Snuggled in her blanket, she closed her eyes as if she was trying to force her
way back to that dream. In the days since her rescue, this was the first time she had dreamed of him.
However, no matter how hard and long she closed her eyes, she just could not fall back. asleep. The only thing she
felt was a sense of helplessness as the strength seeped away from her body. She slowly found her mind turning
drowsy.
