Surprisingly, Jasper drove off without a single moment of hesitation or pause. The car soon disappeared around the corner. Elliot could see the tears and reluctance shimmering in Willow’s eyes. He sighed. How could he let his precious daughter fall in love with a member of the special forces? His job was so dangerous.
Thus, he admired Jasper’s actions for Jasper did not leave Willow with a single shred of hope. The RV driving on the road suddenly swerved into a tiny alley. Then, it stopped and stayed there.
A man’s handsome face was reflected in the rearview mirror as he gazed into the mirror with a deep and mysterious gaze that kept his thoughts hidden. He stared at the main road behind him. Six black SUVS sped past the junction as a thoughtful look shone in his eyes.
Just then, his phone rang. He glanced down at it before answering the call. ‘Hey.” “You’ve handed her over to the Presgraves’ men, right? It was his uncle, who was also his superior.
“Yes,” he replied. “Was Miss Presgrave hurt?”
“Not at all. She was completely fine.” “That’s good. Next time you see Miss Presgrave, avoid her. Don’t attract her attention at all. Do you hear me?”
“Why?” “Why? Don’t you know how strong and powerful her family is? Anyway, in the future, whenever you see her, just stay away from her,” his worrying uncle instructed.
“Got it,” Jasper responded, closing his eyes as his head began to pound. “Come back now. You’ve made a mess of the mission, so you’ll have to make up for it in the future.”
“Roger.” Jasper then started the car once more. Currently, on the way to the airport were the Presgraves’ troupe of cars along with three helicopters escorting them while scouting the area around the group. Security was very strict.
However, the woman sitting in the car in the center of everything was clearly not happy. Usually, Willow would be eager to tell her father everything about the eventful adventure she just had. Sitting next to her, Elliot waited and waited for her to offer up all the details of her experience, but she did not do so. Instead, she merely stared out of the window, lost in her thoughts.
