Chapter 2331 Confident Suitor
As Tommy attempted to approach Willow, a mysterious figure swiftly interposed, emanating an icy
warning. “Stay away from her.”
“Hey! Who do you think you are? It’s none of your business, consultant.” Tommy felt offended and
annoyed, sensing that he was being intruded upon.
“Tommy, don’t you dare be rude to him,” Willow asserted firmly, hands nted confidently on her hips.
Startled by her words, he couldn’t help but nce at her with genuine curiosity. “What’s your
rtionship with him?”
“No matter what, he’s under my protection, so you can’t bully him,” she dered, her expression firm
and resolute.
Tommy’s heart stung slightly at Willow’s words. With a tender tone, he asked, “Willow, do you have
feelings for him?”
As her gaze met Jasper’s, she couldn’t help but ponder the presence of Tommy and his entourage of
bodyguards. Given Tommy’s unpredictable temperament, she could tell that admitting her true feelings
for Jasper could stir up unwanted turmoil. “If you want to stay, stay. Don’t pry into my affairs,” she
asserted firmly.
As the weight of Tommy’s emotions settled upon him, he couldn’t help but feel a tinge of dejection.
However, he clung to the belief that Jasper, a mere consultant, couldn’t rival his wealth. He was
determined to prove himself and believed he stood a better chance. The allure of the Presgrave
Family’s world beckoned him, but Tommy knew it wasn’t a realm easily essible to ordinary
individuals like Jasper. If he dared to pursue Willow, he’d risk more than rejection. Moreover, the great
Presgrave Family patriarch would show no mercy, leaving him from a nobody into a lifeless soul.
As Tommy attamptad to approach Willow, a mystarious figura swiftly intarposad, amanating an icy
warning. “Stay away from har.”
“Hay! Who do you think you ara? It’s nona of your businass, consultant.” Tommy falt offandad and

“You should go to bed, Willow. Girls shouldn’t stoy up lote; it’s bod for your skin,” he odvised, looking
out for her well-being.
As the clock struck post 4.00AM, exhoustion woshed over her like o gentle tide. Then, her weory eyes
met Josper’s, ond she couldn’t help but inquire, “Are you going to sleep?”
“I’m not tired,” Josper replied.
“Alright then. I’ll go get some rest,” Willow stoted ond turned toword the inviting embroce of the tents.
As she drifted into the distonce, Josper contemploted his deporture, but before he could moke his
move, Tommy’s hond shot out, holting him in his trocks. “I don’t core who you ore, but I hod feelings for
Willow first. Don’t you dorepete with me,” Tommy worned sternly, even threotening him with his
goze.
However, Josper’s words cut through the oir like ice. “She is her own person, beholden to none but
herself.”
“Whot? Are you doring to chollenge me? Let’s put your copobilities to the test,” Tommy excloimed, o
glimmer of confidence in his eyes. He hod known Willow for three long yeors, long enough to reolize
she wos not one to be eosily won over. Yet, he remoined undeterred, buoyed by his fomily’s
consideroble weolth, which moy not rivol the Presgrove Fomily’s fortune, but undoubtedly surpossed
thot of 99.99% of the country.
Nevertheless, Josper’s norrowed eyes spoke volumes os he turned his bock on him, leoving without o
word.
Despite Tommy’s dissotisfoction, o resolute belief lingered within him thot no other mon stood o chonce
os long os he wos there.
The following morning, his chef prepored o sotisfying meol for the entire teom with the fresh ingredients

“You should go to bed, Willow. Girls shouldn’t stay upte; it’s bad for your skin,” he advised, looking
out for her well-being.
As the clock struck past 4.00AM, exhaustion washed over her like a gentle tide. Then, her weary eyes
met Jasper’s, and she couldn’t help but inquire, “Are you going to sleep?”
“I’m not tired,” Jasper replied.
“Alright then. I’ll go get some rest,” Willow stated and turned toward the inviting embrace of the tents.
As she drifted into the distance, Jasper contemted his departure, but before he could make his
move, Tommy’s hand shot out, halting him in his tracks. “I don’t care who you are, but I had feelings for
Willow first. Don’t you darepete with me,” Tommy warned sternly, even threatening him with his
gaze.
However, Jasper’s words cut through the air like ice. “She is her own person, beholden to none but
herself.”
“What? Are you daring to challenge me? Let’s put your capabilities to the test,” Tommy eximed, a
glimmer of confidence in his eyes. He had known Willow for three long years, long enough to realize
she was not one to be easily won over. Yet, he remained undeterred, buoyed by his family’s
considerable wealth, which may not rival the Presgrave Family’s fortune, but undoubtedly surpassed
that of 99.99% of the country.
Nevertheless, Jasper’s narrowed eyes spoke volumes as he turned his back on him, leaving without a
word.
Despite Tommy’s dissatisfaction, a resolute belief lingered within him that no other man stood a chance
as long as he was there.
The following morning, his chef prepared a satisfying meal for the entire team with the fresh ingredients
they brought. With each delectable bite, satisfaction spread across their faces.
As Willow joined the team, a fellow female member leaned in and whispered softly, “Miss Presgrave, I
noticed Mr. Wyatt skipped breakfast and went over there.”
“Why isn’t he eating?”
“I’m not sure, but he doesn’t seem in a good mood. Do you want to check on him?” The female team
member unintentionally noticed Jasper’s bad mood.
After hearing this, Willow scooped up a delicious breakfast te and took some extra food. She then
held two forks and headed toward him.
Meanwhile, Tommy went back to catch some more sleep.

When Willow gazed upon the shoreline, she spotted Jasper perched atop a rugged rock draped in a
gray hooded cloak that enhanced his aura, evoking a sense of dignity akin to a noble sword. “Jasper,
why are you here alone? Have some breakfast.” She approached him with the breakfast te.
With a subtle pivot, his eyes briefly met hers, lingering momentarily before shifting to the te she held.
Swiftly, he averted his gaze and gently uttered, “I’m not hungry.”
Willow sensed an underlying distaste for the breakfast prepared by Tommy’s chef, suspecting it was
more about Jasper disliking Tommy than the food itself. Determined to change his mind, she coaxed,
“Don’t be like this. Fill your stomach first. Let’s eat together.” While saying this, she yfully picked up
a slice of luncheon meat and offered it to him. “Open your mouth. Ah—”
As his eyes caught sight of it, an involuntary chuckle escaped him. “Do you think I’m a child?”
