Willow did enter the dance hall, but not with the intention of dancing. She was there merely to witness the fun. Her preference lay

in finding a spot to observe people and seek entertainment. However, what she did not know was her incredibly captivating aura-

mysterious, noble, like a fairy. Even with a mask on, her big watery eyes and beautiful plump red lips were enticing.

At that moment, Josephine saw two familiar figures standing beside her. Although they were, wearing masks, she recognized them

right away. Aren't they my bodyguards?

“You... How did you two manage to get in here?” She could not help but burst into laughter. Her two bodyguards were known for

their serious demeanor, yet they joined in on the fun. “We're here to protect Miss Presgrave. She can’t be out of our sight.”

“Don’t worry. | can take care of myself,” Willow reassured. She did not want to rely on constant protection, as it would only make

her feel vulnerable and weak.

“Miss Presgrave, you can have fun freely. We won't disturb you,” the bodyguard replied. She nodded and added, ‘Well, you guys

can enjoy yourselves too! | won't tell my dad. Go get your dance partners!”

“No. Our duty is to protect you,” the bodyguard stated earnestly. At that, Willow could only let them be. Of course, she was clueless

that danger was around her.

In actuality, a group of kidnappers had targeted her. They were aware that capturing her would enable them to demand a

substantial ransom from the Presgrave family, ensuring a lifetof financial security for themselves. It just so happened that

Willow boarded this cruise ship, and they had to kidnap her before the next port arrived.

Tonight's masquerade ball presented the perfect opportunity for them to strike. With a vast and diverse crowd, even with her

bodyguards in tow, it would be challenging for them to provide constant attention and protection. Meanwhile, four men standing in

the corner were also staring at Willow. One asked, “Boss, can we make a move now?”

“The next port won't arrive for another two days. We have to act tonight and demand money from the Presgraves. We need to be

quick, ruthless, and ensure not to harm Miss Presgrave.”

“What if we accidentally do?”

“Even if we get the money, we won't live long enough to spend it.” These kidnappers were well aware of the potential

consequences if they were to harm Willow, so their sole objective was to obtain a ransom and not cause her any physical harm.

The ball was reaching its climax as guests poured into the dance hall, causing it to becincreasingly crowded. Ethan had

already left with Josephine because he could not bear seeing her jostled in such a chaotic environment. He believed it would be

better to take her back to their room to rest.

However, Willow was different. She had cto the ball to enjoy herself, sitting in her seat, sipping on red wine, listening to the

music, and immersing herself in the exhilarating atmosphere. Moreover, she was eagerly anticipating the upcoming disco dance,

which was always a highlight for young people.

Finally, a group of renowned DJs stood on stage before the lights dimmed. Spotlights began to dance seductively. She could not

help but rise from her seat and sway her hips to the music and adrenaline.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

The youngsters on the dance floor had already, started to let loose and show off their vibrant dance moves. In the meantime, the

job of the bodyguards becincreasingly challenging as they kept a watchful eye on Willow amidst the flashing lights. It became

trickier for them, to maintain a constant visual on her due to the disorienting effects of the lights.

During a moment of darkness caused by the lights, a hand suddenly grabbed Willow's arm and pulled her into the crowd. “Hey!

Who are you? Let go of me!” she exclaimed angrily. How can someone be so rude?

They forcefully dragged her toward the center of the dance floor. However, she soon realized that something was amiss. It was not

just one person tugging on her; another man swiftly approached and joined in, holding her firmly. It becevident that these two

men intended to abduct her.
