Do You Like Me

"If you don't take my money, then I'll think of you as my man. However, I'll only see you as a friend if you do take

my money. Make your choice," Willow said, confident that he would not take her money.

"Willow," Jasper gently called.

Upon hearing his gentle voice, Willow choked up, thinking he was about to inform her of his departure. She covered

her ears and said, "I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear you say that you're leaving me. If you plan on saying

that, then don't say a word. After we arrive at the harbor, you can leave when I'm not looking."

While looking at her, Jasper suddenly felt his heart thumping. Leaving was something inevitable, and leaving Willow

after staying with her and spending time together would only make his departure more painful for the both of

them.

He could not guarantee her a good future, so he could not promise her anything. Though he was not afraid of the

consequences of his promises, he was afraid of hurting the woman he loved.

When Willow turned around, she had tears running down her cheeks as she stared at the man before her. She put

down her hands and stubbornly pursed her lips. "Are you really going to leave me?"

"Do you need me to help you with anything else?" he asked.

"Yes. I need you to stay with me. You are not allowed to leave." Willow looked at him with teary eyes.

"Miss Presgrave, I don't need any reward, for I did all this willingly. Once we get off the boat, we won't be seeing

each other anymore." After he said so, he got up and left.

Suddenly, he heard Willow's cries coming from behind him, and he immediately stopped walking. Though he had

turned his head to the side, he did not look back at her. In the end, he left.

With pursed lips, Willow looked at the man she tried to keep but failed, feeling hopeless and powerless.

That night, Willow did not appear at dinner. Meanwhile, Jasper was sitting beside the window as he also had no

appetite. Johanna approached him with a plate and said, "Mr. Wyatt, Miss Presgrave did not come down for dinner.

Do you mind bringing this to her?"

Jasper shook his head and said, "You should go instead!"

"From what I see, she might be hoping that you'll do it."

"Her mood would only become worse after seeing me," Jasper remarked sensibly.

Left with no choice, Johanna could only bring the food upstairs herself. As expected, Willow was standing before the

floor-to-ceiling window with her arms crossed before her, thinking of something.

"Miss Presgrave, please have something to eat!"

"I don't have an appetite." Willow was telling the truth. She did not turn around because her eyes were red from

crying, and she refused to let anyone see her in such a state.

Having guessed Willow might have gotten into a fight or was at loggerheads with Jasper, Johanna could only bring

the food downstairs. In the meantime, Jasper looked over and felt his heart tightening. Is she not planning on eating

anything?

It was the middle of the night again, and everyone else was asleep. It had been a tough expedition, so everyone

was tired.

Jasper was packing his bags when he heard someone knocking. Even though he knew who it was, he still hurried

over to open the door, revealing Willow standing outside.

"Since we're about to go on our separate paths, why don't we have a talk?" Willow suggested, seemingly calmer

now.

After Jasper moved aside to let her in, she sat on the couch and looked at the bright moon in the sky through the

window. "Where will you be going after this?"

"Back to work," Jasper replied. He still had two months of leave, but once Willow returned to Averna, she would

return to being the daughter of the Presgrave Family, and he had no reason to stay by her side.

"In that case, I'll ask you one more question. You must answer me truthfully." Willow raised her teary eyes to look at

him, making her seem even more pitiful.

Jasper looked at her and felt slightly distressed. He nodded. "Go ahead."

"Do you like me?" Willow asked.

Having guessed that question, Jasper had previously thought about it too. He nodded. "I did."

"What do you mean?" Willow pushed for an answer.

"I'm an incredibly rational person who'll never let anyone disturb my work. Do you understand?" Jasper replied in a

low voice.
