Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2273

Willow was already blushing, but now her face turned even redder. Her pride couldn’t handle it. She bit her lip and said, “I-I didn’t say I like you.”

“It’s best if you don’t.” Jasper kept his gaze forward, his deep eyes revealing no emotions. However, Willow could tell that what he said was what he truly felt. In other words, she had misunderstood things.

Willow felt her chest rise and fall with anger. She never expected that the strongest feeling of defeat in her life would come from this man. It made her start to doubt herself. Was she really that unlikable? Thinking about it, she realized that she had caused him quite a bit of trouble, which could be why he didn’t like her. He only protected her because of the pressure exerted by her father. Otherwise, he had no reason to protect someone of no value.

Willow pouted and looked out of the window. At that moment, the man turned his head to look at her for a few seconds, without her notice. The glass reflected her expression, resembling that of a sulking child.

The man’s gaze narrowed slightly, then he looked at the navigation map, which showed that they were only 35 minutes away from their destination. “Let’s play a song to listen to! It’s so dull,” Willow said, feeling embarrassed and bored.

Jasper played a song, and the atmosphere improved slightly. Willow’s eyes were trained on the scenery outside the window moving backward, but her mind was filled with memories of the series of events she had experienced with Jasper. As she thought about it, she realized that a strong sense of reluctance grew within her. But she had to suppress it and not show it, otherwise, it would only make her feel more embarrassed. He didn’t value her feelings, and if she voiced them, it would only be a joke.

The journey went smoothly without them even encountering a single traffic light. Jasper’s driving speed wasn’t fast, nor was it slow. Willow glanced at the time on the navigation, and there were only 20 minutes left. For the first time, she wished the road was longer..

“Jasper, will you remember me in the future?” Willow took the opportunity to ask him. “I have a lot of work to handle every day, so might not remember anyone,” the man replied.
