Night of Destiny (Anastasia Tillman)

Three days later, Willow's phone rang, and she was informed that the city would be holding a commendation ceremony the

following Friday, where she had been selected as one of the top ten citizens to be honored. Excited and grateful, she gladly

accepted the invitation to attend. After going through a rollercoaster of emotions in the past few days, she decided it was tfor

a fresh start and moved out of her family hinto her villa.

Meanwhile, Elliot and Anastasia, knowing their daughter had recently experienced a challenging relationship, decided to give her

space and not interfere with her matters. They believed facing life's challenges would help her learn and grow, and they wanted

her to control her life. Hence, whatever decisions their daughter made, they would support her wholeheartedly.

Similarly, Jasper had settled into his villa as well. Though he had a few days of leave left and could have returned to his position

earlier, he chose to stay and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. During his relaxing days, he received an unexpected call from

Antoine. "Hello, Uncle."

"Are you at home?"

"Yes!"

"I need you to cback for a mission. When will you be able to pack up and return?"

"I would like to enjoy the rest of my holidays before returning."

After hearing this, Antoine spoke in a hushed manner, cautioning, "Jasper, don't cause any trouble. Don't think | don't know what's

happening between you and Miss Presgrave."

"I've already settled that matter," Jasper replied.

"lI won't interfere with your matters, but don't you forget about your mission. Between work and relationships, you can only have

one choice."

"l understand," Jasper acknowledged.

After the call ended, he quickly grabbed his laptop and skillfully navigated through various steps until a live feed appeared on the

screen. The camera was positioned near a charming villa and a young woman leisurely basking in the sunshine while tenderly

petting her adorable kitten.

The young woman in the video was Willow, and ever since that night, Jasper couldn't shake off his worries about her. He discreetly

traced her movements for a few days and discovered she had moved out from her family's hto a villa she owned. As he

watched her on the screen, a mix of emotions filled his eyes, making him feel like an unintentional stalker.

Suddenly, the cat leaped out of her arms and onto the grass, prompting her to chase after it. She tripped on her slippers and fell,

but undeterred, she rubbed her aching legs and continued chasing the mischievous feline. However, the cat seemed triggered by

something as it effortlessly jumped over a wall and vanished from sight.

"Oh, no! Chacha, my cat!" Willow fretted, standing behind the wall and stomping her feet in anxiety. On the other hand, fueled by

concern, Jasper sprang into action, grabbing his laptop, phone, and car keys before rushing out of his home.

In the meantime, she hurriedly went to the other side of the courtyard wall in search of her runaway cat. Despite her efforts, her

cat was nowhere to be found, leaving her no choice but to seek help from her bodyguards.

"lI won't interfere with your matters, but don't you forget about your mission. Between work and relationships, you can only have

one choice."

"lI won't intarfara with your mattars, but don't you forgat about your mission. Batwaan work and ralationships, you can only hava

ona choica."

"l undarstand," Jaspar acknowladgad.

Aftar tha call andad, ha quickly grabbad his laptop and skillfully navigatad through various staps until a liva faad appaarad on tha

scraan. Tha camara was positionad naar a charming villa and a young woman laisuraly basking in tha sunshina whila tandarly

"Oh, no! Chacha, my cat!" Willow frattad, standing bahind tha wall and stomping har faat in anxiaty. On tha othar hand, fualad by

In tha maantima, sha hurriadly want to tha othar sida of tha courtyard wall in saarch of har runaway cat. Daspita har afforts, har

cat was nowhara to ba found, laaving har no choica but to saak halp from har bodyguards.

Just as she returned home, a sleek black SUV pulled up near the courtyard wall, and a striking man in all-black attire emerged from

it, radiating an aura of intelligence and power. The man inspected the fence briefly before diligently searching where the cat had

disappeared.

Willow's villa was surrounded by lush woods, shrubs, and vibrant flowers, making the search challenging. Nevertheless, the man

displayed incredible patience and determination. Finally, he spotted the Ragdoll cat, as enchanting as its owner, sitting under a

short tree adorned with a cute pink bib.

"Chere. I'll bring you home," Jasper said as he reached to retrieve the cat. Surprisingly, the cat didn't resist and allowed itself

to be picked up.

With the cat comfortably nestled in his arms, his tall and striking figure approached the nearby wall, giving the cat a few

comforting pats along the way.

However, Willow's hope remained undeterred, and she still searched for her missing feline. As she turned the corner, she was taken

aback by the sight that met her eyes—a familiar figure holding her beloved cat in his embrace. A profound silence enveloped them

at that moment. She was left utterly stunned, even more so than her cat. As she saw her beloved feline resting securely in the

man's embrace, an inexplicable feeling of envy washed over her.
