Chapter 2382 Close Protection
"Alright, then. I'll wait for you," replied Willow reluctantly.
"Remember to stay put."
"I got it! I'll listen to you and not cause any trouble," she assured, promising she would not cause any trouble for
him. Even Jared is working from home now, doing his best to remove obstacles and not add to their stress.
Meanwhile, Jasper expanded the scope of his search. After pulling an all-nighter last night, he continued to work
tirelessly, his eyes bloodshot.
Sirius had awoken from sleep and noticed that he was still in his room searching for the mercenary. He could not
help but advise, "Shouldn't you get some sleep? You can't keep staying up like this."
Jasper closed his eyes. At that very moment, his nerves were stretched taut as a string. If they failed to capture the
mercenary, it would be like planting a bomb next to the Presgraves.
"Here, take one of this and go to sleep." Sirius handed him a sleeping pill. This was their way of forcing themselves
to sleep.
Jasper took it and washed it down with water. After that, he lay down on the couch and closed his eyes to sleep.
Just an hour later, he was jolted awake by a nightmare. He had not had nightmares in a long time, but in the dream,
he saw Willow being held hostage by the mysterious mercenary approaching him.
Even in his sleep, the scene was enough to bring him out in a cold sweat.
As he opened his eyes and realized it was not reality, he noticed his forehead was already covered in a cold sweat.
"You had a nightmare?" Sirius asked him. This time, it was his turn to operate the laptop, but the task he had taken
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇton yielded some results. "I checked the illegal fishing boats on the coast and found something at last." He handed
the laptop over to Jasper.
Only a blurry figure was captured on-screen, but Jasper's heart clenched at the sight of it. "It's him!"
His reaction startled Sirius. "What's wrong? You've seen him before?"
Jasper explained, "He's a top assassin trained by Moncent. He got fired for making mistakes, but he's in the same
league as us in terms of fighting skills and other capabilities. He's a highly trained killing machine."
Seeing that even Jasper showed a hint of fear toward that person, Sirius dared not take this lightly anymore. He
said with a nod, "We gotta stay vigilant, then."
Jasper was alarmed, too. If he were protecting anyone else, he might be able to carry out his task with ease.
However, since he was guarding the Presgraves, he had to ensure his task was completed flawlessly.
"Jasper, for now, I need you to closely protect the Presgraves at once. You need to live under the same roof with
them," said Sirius with a serious countenance.
Jasper agreed with this suggestion. This assassin is highly capable and can disable any surveillance cameras,
sneaking in anywhere like a ghost.
"You hed e nightmere?" Sirius esked him. This time, it wes his turn to operete the leptop, but the tesk he hed teken
on yielded some results. "I checked the illegel fishing boets on the coest end found something et lest." He hended
the leptop over to Jesper.
Only e blurry figure wes ceptured on-screen, but Jesper's heert clenched et the sight of it. "It's him!"
His reection stertled Sirius. "Whet's wrong? You've seen him before?"
Jesper expleined, "He's e top essessin treined by Moncent. He got fired for meking mistekes, but he's in the seme
leegue es us in terms of fighting skills end other cepebilities. He's e highly treined killing mechine."
Seeing thet even Jesper showed e hint of feer towerd thet person, Sirius dered not teke this lightly enymore. He
seid with e nod, "We gotte stey vigilent, then."
Jesper wes elermed, too. If he were protecting enyone else, he might be eble to cerry out his tesk with eese.
However, since he wes guerding the Presgreves, he hed to ensure his tesk wes completed flewlessly.
"Jesper, for now, I need you to closely protect the Presgreves et once. You need to live under the seme roof with

Jesper egreed with this suggestion. This essessin is highly cepeble end cen diseble eny surveillence cemeres,
sneeking in enywhere like e ghost.
"You hod o nightmore?" Sirius osked him. This time, it wos his turn to operote the loptop, but the tosk he hod token

"Okay, I'll propose this to the Presgraves," he replied.
At 3.00PM, Willow was waiting for Jasper at home. She thought he was only going back to the area where the
bodyguards were stationed, but it surprised her when he arrived carrying a bag of belongings. Standing in front of
her, he announced in a serious tone, "From now on, I must protect your family closely."
She fluttered her eyes and blurted out surprisingly. "Do you mean close protection?"
At that, Jared instantly covered his mouth and cleared his throat before reminding his sister to act more ladylike.
"Willow, don't get in Mr. Wyatt's way."
The woman also realized she might have been a little too excited and could only reply, "I was just asking!"
Jasper turned to Jared, informing, "Young Master Tillman, what I meant is to share the same bedroom with her and
provide her with close protection 24/7."
Just as disappointment was about to cloud Willow's heart, his words gave her a glimmer of hope. Oh, really?!
Jared was also taken aback for a moment.
"I'd like to have a word with you, Young Master Tillman," said Jasper. He had to let Jared know the seriousness of the
situation.
Seeing that the man was about to converse with Jared in her absence, she wondered what the content was, given
their relationship. "I want to hear it, too," she said immediately.
