“W-What do you want? I-I can give you a-anything. Just don’t kill me,” the captain spoke somewhat
inartictely. Assuming Jasper could not understand, he repeated his sentence. Jasper’s lips curled
faintly while revealing a murderous intent, and with a gunshot, thest member of the pirate ship fell to
the ground. Then, his gaze turned toward the ind. The fierce killing intent in his eyes suddenly
dissipated and was reced by a hint of anxiety and panic because he had been dyed here for too
long, and a certain someone might be worried about him. He had to return to her side as soon as
possible. Thus, he jumped onto a small speedboat nearby, started it, and headed toward the ind. On
the ind, Willow could not rx or focus on anything without news about Jasper. She had been
pacing back and forth for quite a while, and Ricky had ordered his men to search the surroundings to
comfort her. However, his gaze kept scanning the dark sea in hopes that Jasper would return soon.
Their miss was getting anxious because of him. “Miss Presgrave, have some water.” Johanna handed
her a bottle of water. Willow shook her head. “I’m not thirsty.”
“Don’t worry, Miss Presgrave. We all know how capable Mr. Wyatt is. Whatever he does, he wille
back safely.” Johanna tried to reassure her. Willow’s palms were clenched so tightly that they turned
pallid. She looked at Johanna and asked for reassurance. “Will he be okay?” Her eyes reddened as if
she was on the verge of tears. “Yes, he’ll be fine.” Johanna hurriedly assured her. It was the first time
she had seen Willow on the verge of crying, and she felt distressed. She had protected Willow for
nearly ten years and shared a deep bond with her. Willow sighed. “Only if he stands safely before me
will I rest assured.” At that moment, Ricky heard the sound of a yacht approaching from the sea and
immediately took the binocrs to search the ocean. Finally, he locked onto a figure that made him
breathe a sigh of relief. He strode quickly to Willow and reported, “Miss Presgrave, Mr. Wyatt is back.”
“Where? Where is he?” She looked behind him, and Ricky handed her the binocrs while pointing
toward the sea. “Over there.” Willow was taken aback and quickly took the binocrs to look at the
sea. Under the moonlight, she saw a yacht approaching, and the man sitting on it could only be Jasper.
A smile of joy finally appeared in her eyes as she looked at the approaching figure and questioned,
“Why is he returning from the ocean? Where did he go?” Ricky dared not voice it. If he told Willow that
Jasper had gone to the pirate ship alone, she would certainly be furious. I’ll leave that to Mr. Wyatt! Of
course, she was not in a hurry to hear the answer. She put the binocrs back into Ricky’s hands and
ran toward the beach, with Johanna quickly following behind.
Jasper also saw her standing there. His speedboat rushed ashore, and he was drenched all over after
stepping off it. Water droplets from his wet ck hair ran down his narrow eyebrows and eyes. Despite
looking somewhat bedraggled, he exuded an untamed wildness and dominance. Willow wanted to hug
him, but he pushed her away with his wet arms. “I’m drenched. Don’t get your clothes wet.”
She was shoved away just like that, so she could not help but question him, “Where did you go? Why
did you disappear without a word? Do you know how worried I was?” That interrogation made the
others around them leave tactfully. It was best to stay away from the scene where this couple
quarreled. “I… Uhm…” He found it difficult to exin and looked somewhat helpless, like a child who
had done something wrong. “Why did youe back from the sea? Did you fall?” She made a guess.
“Yes. I was chasing a pirate and identally fell into the sea,” he immediately replied while going along
with her guess. He wondered if telling her his hands had just been stained with more than a dozen lives
would terrify her.
