“Hello. Thanks foring, Ellen politely said. “I’ve arranged a room for you. Let me show you upstairs,
Willow offered. However, Jasper shook his head. ‘I’ll stay in the guards’ residence.”
Willow felt a bit disappointed. “Can’t you stay in my house?” He couldn’t break the rules, and the
guards’ residence was located right beside the house, making it easier for him to protect Willow. “With
my status, I can’t stay in your house. I’ll see youter,” he said, carrying his luggage as he left.

As she watched his departing figure, she bit her red lips. I want close protection, not him staying in the
guards’ residence.
Seeing that, Ellen came forward tofort her. “Don’t rush things, Willow. His status may make it
challenging for him to stay here.” Willow nodded and could only say, “Right. At least we can still see
each other every day.”
“He’s really good. I believe Mom and Dad will like him,” Ellen said. Encouraged by this, Willow asked,
“Do your really think so?”
“Be patient. If it’s meant to be, it will be.” Ellen reassured her. She could see that Jasper also liked
Willow. A love like this, when both sides are fond of each other, will surely have a happy ending. I’m
speaking from experience.
Willow had no choice but to stay patient. No matter what, I need to get through this family crisis first. He
must be under a lot of pressure now too.
With Jasper not far away, she felt much more at ease. She was currently studying the information
about the cultural relics that were brought back, as this batch of artifacts held significant research
value.
During dinner time, Jared returned home. He first hugged his precious son and then embraced his wife.
They were his motivation for working hard. Meanwhile, Willow, on the sidelines, was forced to watch
this lovey-dovey moment.
“Willow, I heard Dad say that Mr. Wyatt ist staying in our house. Make sure to behave and listen
obediently,” Jared said to his adorable. younger sister. With a smile, Willow replied, “When am I ever
not obedient?”
Of course, he knew his younger sister liked Jasper. To be honest, he also admired him. If I can get him
as my brother-inw, I’ll be at ease. Willow will have someone caring for her and protecting her.
He needed to carefully assess the choice of his brother-inw. After all, he had doted on his sister
since she was young. If he couldn’t entrust her to the right person, he wouldn’t approve. Fortunately,
his sister had good taste. She had set her sights on someone as strong as Jasper, which made things
easier.
“Jared, Ellen, enjoy your dinner. I’m going out to clear my mind,” Willow said. Hearing that, Jared
chuckled. “Are you sure you’re not going to find Mr. Wyatt?”
“Since you know, can you not expose me?” She blushed and smiled shyly. Then she walked out into
the yard of her house. From here, there was a corridor leading specifically to the amodation for
nannies, maids, and bodyguards. She used to rarely take this path, but tonight she seemed unusually
delighted.
Arriving at the guards’ residence, she was met with a startled guard who quickly asked, ‘Miss, is
something wrong?”
‘No, no, everything’s fine. I’m looking for someone,” she replied before inquiring. “Where does the new
guard live?”
“He’s in thest room.” The guard pointed her the way. After a nod, she headed straight to thatst
room. She knocked on the door, and footsteps sounded from behind it. When the door opened, it
revealed a perfectly sculpted figure that was almost 95 percent exposed, from head to toe,
unabashedly in full view before her eyes.
Shocked, she widened her beautiful eyes, unsure where to look for a moment. Of course, her eyes did
have their thoughts, and they directlynded on that undisclosed 5 percent of his body.
Likewise, the man was momentarily stunned. He swiftly grabbed a towel from the nearby rack to cover
his lower half.
“Why are you here?” Jasper was a bit flustered. She really came without any warning.
