Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2284

“What’s going on?” asked Willow curiously. Turning to face her, Jasper looked at her and replied, “Willow, don’t return to the hotel and go. home to your parents. You’ve been targeted by a bad guy.” Dumbfounded, she blinked her eyes, asking, “Who’s targeting me?”

“The explosion at the mall was staged to cause chaos so they could kidnap you. Those kidnappers are hired by a rich businessman who has taken a fancy to you, so it’s no longer safe for you to stay at the hotel.” He warned her, hoping she would protect herself.

Gulping, Willow did not expect she would get involved in such an unwarranted situation. “So, you rushed here to save me?” she asked. Jasper nodded. “I found the time to come here, but I still have to complete my mission and can’t protect you.”

Feeling a warm feeling enveloping her, she said, “You’re protecting me now!” “This is the only time I will. I don’t have the time and effort to protect an outsider.” His gaze turned cold.

His words were like a bucket of cold water poured onto Willow’s warm heart. She pursed her lips. “I’m sorry that I caused you so much trouble.” When he started the car, she asked, “Are you going to send me home?”

Jasper remained quiet, but the car headed for the city center and finally arrived at the entrance of Presgrave Group. Then, he ordered, “Get out.”

Hearing that, she felt hurt and turned to face him. “If saving me makes things so difficult for you, don’t come to my rescue again. I don’t want to take up your time.”

Once she finished, she got out of the car but took a wrong step and tripped. While sitting on the step, she looked at a particular someone. However, she did not notice that when she fell, the man had instinctively reached out his hand to help her but was too far away, so he could only watch as she plunged to the floor.

Meanwhile, Elliot had already taken the elevator downstairs to get her. When he saw she had injured her leg, he felt heartbroken and supported her. “How did you get into this. state?”

“It’s a long story.” She smiled helplessly. The pain in her leg was fine, but the stuffiness in her heart would not disappear anytime soon. Back at the hotel.

Jasper turned on his laptop to see if Bucky’s men had returned and eventually discovered they had. Inside the video, the two men seemed frustrated, undoubtedly because they had failed their mission and could not deliver what was asked of them. However, he let out a slight sigh. If he had not discovered Willow was followed, she might have already been kidnapped by then.
