Your Love Is My Weapon novel Chapter 7

"You know that's not what I meant." Jasper explained, "I'm just afraid that you'll get hurt. I'm just a useless prison guard and there is so little I can do to help you..."

At the end of the sentence, Jasper lowered his voice. "Just forget what I said, okay? I will try my best to help you."

He just didn't want her to live the rest of her life in such misery again. Obviously, it would be too difficult for her to bring down the Harrison Family and make them pay for the evil things they had done.

Arya also knew that. But if she could even ignore the death of her mother and her baby, what was the point of living?

No matter how hard it was, she had to try. There was no other choice for her.

"It's late today. You may go back early. I can walk back by myself."

Arya got out of the car and Jasper stopped her. "Am I bothering you?"

"No, you are a great man, Jasper. I'm really grateful to you. But I just, I can't." Arya understood how good Jasper was to her and what he had in mind, but she was too depressed to have feelings for anyone.

So, she didn't want to owe Jasper too much. She couldn't afford it.

She was destined to have a rough life, so she didn't want to bring bad luck to Jasper.

"Get in the car then. I'll see you off." Jasper looked at her.

He could never forget the way she stood in front of the window and cried in the rain, feeling the pain that only someone who had experienced it would know. He knew she was not an ordinary woman at the first glance. He knew that she had her own story. During the three years' contact, he heard her telling her own miserable experience, heard her crying, and watched her smile. Jasper had always believed that he had fallen in love with her when she was covered with blood, begging him to save her child. That pitiful but beautiful woman with clear eyes really impressed him. He swore he would protect her forever, even if he would sacrifice his life.

"I want to be alone." Arya didn't get in the car.

Jasper was worried about her being alone, but he didn't dare to push her too hard because he was afraid that she would leave him.

"Then let's eat together tomorrow."

This time, Arya agreed. Although she kept an emotional distance from Jasper, they were still friends.

Seeing Jasper leave, she took a step.

There were hardly any pedestrians on the road late at night, and even the cars coming and going were few. A gust of wind ruffled her hair and sent a shiver down her spine.

She wrapped her arms around her chest and rubbed her arms together in an attempt to gain some warmth. However, just as she continued along the road, she was suddenly stopped.

A few gangsters blocked her way and looked at the photos on their phones to see if she was the same person.

"Howard, it's her."
