Jasper could completely retire from this line of work and do what he truly wanted. Jasper shook his head. “I don’t want to leave for now.”
He had an attachment to this place-it was where he had grown up and where he had accepted his missions. Only here could he find peace of mind.
Antoine nodded and wrote, ‘Then rest well. Don’t concern yourself with Miss Presgrave unless it’s necessary!
As Antoine handed the phone over to him, his gaze turned slightly serious. He could see all of Jasper’s traces on the internet, so whatever he did or looked up, his subordinates would report it to him. Jasper lowered his head. “I understand.”
Back at her home, Willow didn’t feel like doing anything. She stared at her phone, waiting for a message. She didn’t know if she would receive it, but she wouldn’t give up.
Just then, a message notification sounded. Willow’s eyes widened in happiness as she quickly picked up her phone to check. However, the message was from Leslie.
‘Willow, what are you up to? Leslie took the initiative to start a conversation. The initial joy in Willow’s eyes was instantly replaced by a sense of disappointment. She replied to Leslie and continued to wait for another message. ‘Tomorrow, I have a club event. It’s a lot of fun.
Would you like to come with me?’ Leslie extended the invitation. Willow thought for a moment, feeling a mix of frustration and resignation. She replied, ‘Sure, I’d like to join.’
‘That’s great! I’ll pick you up tomorrow.’ Leslie sent a smiley face. Willow responded, ‘Alright, see you tomorrow.”
She wasn’t in the mood to chat right now. Then, she looked at the time-it was already eleven at night. She didn’t know if she would receive the message she was waiting for.
Feeling a bit thirsty, Willow got up and went downstairs to get some water. At this moment, she saw her elder brother and father downstairs, discussing company business.
Willow couldn’t help but crouch down beside the stairs, eavesdropping on their conversation. After all, she had done this kind of thing many times before and had gained some experience.
