Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2416

Jasper slowly made his way to the settee. Hearing his footsteps, Willow thought the bodyguards were coming to tell her to hurry up. She turned slightly. “I said, ten minutes.” Jasper held out the bouquet and gently said, “It’s me, Willow.”

Willow’s eyes went wide. She stood up and whirled around, only to be greeted by Jasper and the bouquet he was holding. It was as if time stopped at this moment. She felt her heart slowly racing, and faster and faster it went. She felt her broken heart slowly mend until it was whole again, delight surging within her.

She then saw something hanging on the side of Jasper’s head. It was probably a hearing aid. She didn’t answer him but instead went around the settee quickly and stood behind him to have a closer look at what he was wearing. It looked advanced. Even though it was hanging on Jasper’s head, it still looked nice. Still, Willow was worried for him.

“What is this?” she asked quickly. Jasper turned around and faced her, still holding the bouquet of flowers. “Hearing aid.”

“What happened to your ears?’ Tears were glistening in Willow’s eyes, and she broke down. She had always been tough around everyone else but not him. When he was around, she was just a fragile girl who needed his protection.

Jasper put the bouquet down and pulled Willow into his embrace. She fell into his arms and took in his scent. She could smell a hint of antiseptic as well, so she knew that he must have been healing up all this time. I shouldn’t have blacked out that day.

Jasper looked at her and assured, “My hearing is damaged, so I need this to help me. But don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

Willow looked at him, tears in her eyes. “I’ll tell Dad to get you the best doctor money can hire. I will make sure you’re healed.”
