“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 hnow, 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 ssleep? 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 on yielded sresults. “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

sleague as us in terms of fighting skills and other capabilities. He's al 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, | need you to closely protect the Presgraves at once. You need to live under the sroof 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.

“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, hel announced in a serious tone, “From now on, |

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 | meant is to share the sbedroom 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.
