Originally, Willow was already seated on Jasper’s lap. At this moment, she sensed something and blushed, burying her face in his chest. I think I went overboard with the teasing! He’s practically on the verge of exploding now.
“It’s getting late. I’ll escort you back,” Jasper said hoarsely. After some consideration, she replied, “I’ll go back, but I’m fine on my own.” If I stay any longer, I might damage his reputation.
“I’ll escort you,” he insisted. Yet she still shook her head. “Really, you don’t have to. It’s my own home. Can’t I find my way around?” Although my house is huge, it’s the place where I’ve grown up since childhood.
Suddenly, he said to her, “Do you have your phone?” He then took out a necklace from his bag and handed it to her. “Wear this. No matter what happens, don’t take it off.”
She blinked as she looked at the necklace. It didn’t seem like something a girl would wear-it was a black cord with an obsidian pendant.
While she was still examining it, he placed it around her neck and instructed, “No matter what happens, don’t take it off. Understand?”
Immediately, she realized that there was something special about the obsidian. It must contain a tracking device that allows him to locate me anywhere. “Okay, I promise not to take it off.” She nodded earnestly. As Jasper held her face in his hands, he gently kissed her forehead. “Off you go.”
Originally, he intended to attach the device to her phone, but then he thought that sometimes she might forget her phone somewhere. It would be more effective if she wore this necklace.
As Willow was about to leave, she looked back at the man and then turned around, hugging his waist tightly. It was as if his body had a magnetic pull, constantly enticing her to hold on to him.
Seeing that she was reluctant to leave again, he felt an impulse not to let her go. She’s really torturing me. She planted another kiss on his thin lips and said, “Goodnight.” Only after that did she feel content to leave.
He saw her off until she disappeared into the corridor. Back in her room, Willow felt safe and fell asleep soundly, despite the potential dangers outside, With Jasper around, she had nothing to fear.
At once, these mercenaries exchanged glances. This obviously increased the difficulty of their mission. They had thought killing a wealthy family would be an easy task that they could finish in a few days. Now they couldn’t even breach their surveillance system; they had underestimated the Presgrave Family’s defensive capabilities.
At this moment, in Jasper’s room, he was in communication with Sirius. Jasper had installed a tracking Trojan in the defense code. Now the Trojan had traced the attacking IP address.
“I’ve found their location,” he said. “Don’t take action yet, Jasper. We must coordinate. They have a large number of people, and it’s very risky for you to go alone.”
“I know. I’ll track their location so that we can catch them all in one go,” Jasper replied. He had never been so eager to eliminate a target before.
In the meantime, the mercenaries inside an abandoned house were trying various methods to locate the members of the Presgrave Family.
