Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

Chapter 2143

Willow looked at the sunset and said, “I know that a big part of my current status comes from my family’s

support and reputation. Still, | want to achieve something to showcase my efforts.”

Jasper understood her feelings and patted her hand reassuringly. “You have done more than enough.” He looked

through her background, and whether it was because of her identity or family, she had contributed far more to

society than most people. Feeling encouraged, Willow raised her head and tried to seek his approval. “Really?

Am | doing well?”

“You are a brave girl,” replied Jasper. It wasn't ordinary for a 23-year-old girl to assemble at group of people to

search for cultural relics by herself. Plus, she had already started recruiting participants a year ago, which

showed her passion. Willow grinned and said, “My dad used to say I'm fearless since | was little. My parents were

always worried about me.”

“I can tell.” Jasper chuckled. “My mother used to say that no man would dare to be withsince | am such a

wild girl. She even said | will never get married if | keep on being naughty.” Willow changed her voice, acting like

her mother. Jasper’s eyes darkened, and he asked, “How did you respond, then?”

“I told her | would not be getting married if that’s the case! Isn't it fun to live a free life?” Willow smiled sweetly.

At that moment, Jasper’s eyes widened, and he wondered if Willow was actually being serious about it.

He couldn’t help but ask, ‘Aren’t you planning to get married?” As Willow looked at the sunset in the distance,

she replied, “The world is magnificent! | haven't had enough fun yet! I'll think about it when I've had my fill.”

Jasper looked at her adoringly as he thought, Sure. | will wait until you are ready. Willow held his hand and said,

‘Let’s go! We should head back now.” She picked up her bag and was about to stand up when she noticed cracks

on the ground. Feeling surprised, she approached it, wanting to examine the cracks. However, as soon as she

stepped on the soil, it creaked as if it couldn't bear the weight.

“Ah!” Willow's eyes widened as she waved. frantically. “Help me!” “Willow!” Jasper immediately grabbed her

hand and lifted her into his arms. Soon, the two disappeared right on the spot, what was replaced was a loose

pit.

In the dim and dry soil, Willow's face was pressed tightly against Jasper’s chest while he wrapped his arms

around her securely. “Are you hurt?” Jasper ignored the fact that he was covered in dirt and quickly checked on

Willow.

“I'm fine. What about you?” asked Willow as she tried to raise her head. “I'm fine. Don’t move. Letclean up a

bit,” said Jasper as he covered her head. He pushed away the soil around them and patted the dust off his head

before helping her sit up.

Willow lifted her head from his embrace. Her face was clean, save for sdust in her hair. Jasper reached out

and smoothed out her hair, cleaning it up. On the other hand, Willow hurriedly took out swet wipes from her

bag and started wiping his face when she saw him covered in dirt. “I'll do it myself.”

“Don’t move. | got this.” Willow insisted as she gently wiped his face. Jasper sat still like a well-behaved child,

allowing her to clean his face. Once Willow was finished, she looked around. At that moment, her eyes widened

in excitement. “It’s the tomb! We fell into the tomb!” she exclaimed. The light outside illuminated what seemed

to be a well- preserved and dry chamber.

It turned out that they had fallen into an underground tomb. The rainwater must have washed down the soft soil

from the slope, covering the tomb and forming a thin layer of soil on top of it. That was why it couldn’t withstand

their weight, causing them to fall in.
