Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2369

However, the reason behind Jasper's appearance in helping to catch the cat was also particularly eerie.

"Jasper, are you monitoring me?" Willow hugged her arms in satisfaction as if she had caught him in a compromising position.

Jasper was a thick-skinned person—he calmly handed her cat to her while facing her inquiry. He did not fluster when he said, "Your cat."

Willow took the cat back. With a hint of annoyance in her voice, she asked, "Don't you want to explain? Or are you going to say you were just passing by?"

"I don't want to explain." His profound gaze met hers.

"But I want an explanation!" She reached out and stopped him. "Didn't you say we wouldn't meet again? Why do you care about what I do, then?"

"I only did what I did due to my profession. That’s all." Jasper sighed.

"I will be attending an awards ceremony tomorrow. Can you come over if you are free?" Willow extended an invitation to him.

"Sorry, I might not be available." Jasper frowned.

"I don't care. You must come," she said imperiously. She hoped he could be there tomorrow to witness the highlight of her life.

Jasper nodded. "Alright, I will."

With that, he walked toward his car.

Willow stroked her cat while watching him leave. Her lips curled into a smile.

Willow's urgency waned as Jasper left. While returning home with her cat, she couldn't help but notice the surveillance cameras in her yard. She thought that Jasper must have been observing her life through these cameras.

She did not worry much if it was him; if it was someone else, she would have called the police and had the person arrested.

She wondered if he had seen her behaving like a madwoman these past few days.

Staying at home with her cat, she was in a bad mood for a moment. She suddenly had the urge to know where Jasper lived—where was he staying if he hadn't left?

She dialed Ricky's number. "Hey! Ricky, check a vehicle for me. I want to know where it went."

They got to know the license plate number of Jasper's car with the surveillance footage provided by Willow. Ricky's skills were remarkable as he sent an address to her just after ten minutes. "It went into the underground parking of this villa."

Looking at the photo he sent, Willow couldn't help but curiously ask, "Is this villa owned by Jasper?"

"Probably not, Miss Presgrave. Would you like me to check?"

"Yes! Help me find out more about him."

As Ricky went to investigate, Willow realized that she knew nothing about Jasper. Apart from him being in the special forces, she had no deeper understanding of his background.

After half an hour, Ricky sent a link and a voice message. "Miss Presgrave, here's the news from twenty years ago. Take a look."

Willow clicked on the link. The title was listed as 'The President of Wyatt Group and Wife Murdered, Sole Heir of the Wyatt Family Disappeared'.

Willow clicked on the link. The title was listed as 'The President of Wyatt Group and Wife Murdered, Sole Heir of the Wyatt Family Disappeared'.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She carefully read through the entire report as her chest tightened.

Then, Ricky sent another message. "Miss Presgrave, the villa where Mr. Wyatt lives is owned by Old Mr. Wyatt. Currently, it's under the ownership of an investment company. The company has been listed for almost eight years, and its assets have reached billions. As for the owner of the investment company, I haven't found any information yet. However, I speculate it's Mr. Wyatt."

Upon hearing this message, she felt a lump in her throat. She sighed as she did not expect Jasper to have such a sad childhood—his parents had passed away when he was only eight.

The next morning, Anastasia sent a makeup team and a custom-tailored suit for her daughter, fully preparing her for the awards ceremony since her daughter's achievement brought honor to the family.

Willow's actions in saving cultural relics this time were of immeasurable value. Furthermore, she and her team even discovered two significant national treasures on this excursion.
