Willow was still chatting with Winston about the next direction of their research, and her gaze glanced in Jasper’s

way several times. He was talking with Ricky and occasionally caught glimpses of her. In just a glance, their

hearts were filled with each other on this slightly chilly night.

Winston was also planning to nap for a while, and a sly look flashed in Willow's eyes. She deliberately stood

there to feel the cold breeze and did not return to the tent. As expected, after a while, she saw Jasper finish his

conversation with Ricky and walk toward her. “Why aren’t you sleeping?” His caring voice came.

“I'm scared and can’t sleep alone.” She hugged her arms and looked up at the deep night sky. “You can have

He sighed slightly. “All right. Sure. Let's go!” Her lips could not help but curl up in satisfaction. It seemed she

After entering the tent, Willow obediently lay down and told him, “Close your eyes. Don’t think about anything,

and just sleep Jasper obediently shut his eyes, and so did she. They waited as seconds ticked....

Half an hour passed, and even though she was about to fall asleep, she resisted the drowsiness and opened her

eyes to sneak a peek at him. She could not help but get closer to him to check if he was asleep while propping

herself up on her elbow as she looked at him under the faint moonlight.

| think he’s down. She smiled and felt satisfied. She then lay back down and rested her head on her arm while

admiring the handsprofile of the man. Her eyelids grew heavier, and finally, she fell asleep.

Moments after that, the man’s thick long lashes lifted, and he turned his head. His bright and charming eyes

locked onto the peaceful sleeping face of the girl, and he let out a faint sigh of relief.

In the end, who was coaxing whom to sleep? As it turned out, it was Jasper who was coaxing her to sleep. The

way Willow slept, like a child without any defense, captivated him. His gaze could not help but fall on her slightly

parted lips as if smagical force was pulling his nerves.

When he finally cto his senses, he realized he had somehow gotten closer to her face. He forcibly

suppressed all thoughts, gently pulled back the curtain, and left.

That night, Willow slept soundly and sweetly, as her heart was free from worries and distractions. She slept until

the sun was up, and when she opened her eyes, she found that Jasper was no longer by her side. Still drowsy,

“Miss Presgrave, cand have breakfast.” Johanna had prepared breakfast for her. Willow sat under the large

tent and had her meal. Full of curiosity, she asked, “Where's Jasper?”

“He went over there.” Willow ate half a piece of bread and got up to head there, after which Johanna could not

help but sigh. Tyler would surely be heartbroken; Willow, carefully raised by him, was slipping away from him.

The girl walked quickly toward Jasper, squatting next to a rock, and did not know what he was looking at. She

immediately slowed down her pace and sauntered quietly toward him. Jasper noticed but did not expose her.

Even when she reached out to cover his eyes, he still played along and asked, “Who is it?”

“Guess!” A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he played along with her childish game. After she

spoke, she released her hand and jumped in front of him. “It's me.”

Suddenly, his gaze turned to a pirate corpse floating on the sea several feet away, and his pupils contracted

sharply. Willow also noticed his stern gaze behind her and asked, “What are you looking at?”

She was about to turn around to look, but the next moment, the man wrapped his arm around her waist while his

other hand pressed the back of her head. He gently pulled her face toward his chest and assured her, “It's

nothing.”
