Aimee was sitting in front of her computer when Jasper returned to the room. She looked up at the man who had just come in and asked, “Where did you go?” “Nowhere important, Jasper replied as he made his way to his room.
She couldn’t help but follow him. “Jasper, we are partners. You can’t keep anything from me, or we won’t be able to work together.” “Aimee, just focus on your own tasks.” Jasper then closed the door behind him.
Aimee couldn’t stop her chest from rising and falling from anger for a moment. She had been selected as an international agent and was an exceptional young woman.
However, she couldn’t ignore her feelings for Jasper. She had tried repeatedly to restrain herself, and yet, she couldn’t help but pay attention to him.
Her heart wouldn’t calm down whenever they were together. It wasn’t as chaotic when Jasper was fully focused on his work before, but ever since she heard that he had been acting absent-minded after his return to the team, her heart had become restless.
It was because Willow had entered his heart. Jasper having someone he was interested in was making Aimee feel as if something had set her sights on had been stolen from her.
It felt like sh*t. But she also knew that Willow was not just an ordinary woman. After all, Willow Presgrave did come from a formidable family. As such, Aimee hoped that Willow wouldn’t set her heart on Jasper. With her family and background, she could find someone better.
Meanwhile, in the adjacent room, Willow held onto her phone without putting it down. She was trying her best to stop herself from sending a message to Jasper.
However, she was having a tough time holding it in. She had typed out several messages, but she ended up being too timid to send any of them lest she disturbed his work.
Forget it! I’ll just find something else to do! How about going shopping with Mae?
Since she gave me a purse last time, I’ll accompany her to choose some gifts! Willow then made plans with Mae, who gladly accepted. The two of them quickly agreed to meet at the entrance of the lobby.
A man was leaning against the wall, engrossed in a game, when Willow walked out and stood by the elevator.
As soon as he saw Willow, he quickly closed the game interface and sent a message to his partner. The target is out. I’ll follow her, and you come later.
