Ch. 2421..2430

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2421 -Jasper tightened his hug around Willow, pulling her deeper into his embrace. Though Willow felt slightly breathless, she could sense the man's strong affection and didn't struggle, letting him hug her tightly.

Meanwhile, Jasper soon realized he had been hugging her too tightly and released her. When Willow looked up, she met his deep eyes that were filled with affection. They resembled a sea of affection—one she'd willingly drown in.

Moreover, the emotion in his eyes no longer seemed restrained or suppressed but honest and passionate. Like a lake with clear water, his every emotion was clearly shown to her.

Willow was elated because this man was finally hers, and hers alone. She no longer had to worry about him leaving.

Just as she was about to kiss him, there was a knock on the door. It was probably the dishes they ordered, so Willow could only pull him back over to sit at the table.

The sumptuous meal was served in one go. Since the waitress could sense the dense, flirty atmosphere in the room, she quickly left after serving the dishes. In addition, she had sneaked several glances at Jasper just now because she had never seen a handsome man who was also filled with positive energy. To be able to become the man's girlfriend would be the happiest thing in the world.

Willow served the man some dishes while he stabbed a piece of fried shrimp with his fork and placed it beside her lips.

Happily taking a bite, Willow chewed on her food while looking at the man with her bright eyes.

The man hadn't eaten anything but had already gulped several times. No matter how delicious the food was, they weren't as attractive to him as the young woman before him.

Following that, the couple fed each other, one mouthful after another, and finished their dinner after an hour.

Once they were done eating, Jasper brought Willow strolling at a nearby square. Since Jasper had always been busy with work, this was the first time he had such a relaxing stroll while holding hands with someone else.

Willow held his arm and occasionally looked up to admire the man's appearance. Everywhere he walked by, he would attract the attention of other women. That was because he was too stunning. No matter it was his temperament or appearance, he was the most eye-catching one in the crowd.

"Wow! He's so handsome. Is he a celebrity?" a young woman gasped.

Willow looked back and saw several young women had stopped walking and were busy trying to take photos of Jasper sneakily. Suddenly, Willow felt somewhat displeased because she didn't intend to benefit other women when deciding to bring her man out. She held the man's arm and walked toward a less crowded area. "Let's go over there."

Jasper immediately held her shoulders and headed to a less crowded street. Some trees were shielding the area, and coupled with the dim yellow streetlights, it created the perfect spot for a date.

However, once they arrived, Willow discovered what this spot was used for. It was an attraction for couples! There were couples on each bench spaced about ten meters apart. Some were hugging each other, some were whispering sweet nothings to each other, and some were even kissing.

Blushing, Willow held Jasper's arm and walked away but unexpectedly came to an even more deserted pathway.

While Willow wanted a quiet place for them to enjoy the night view together, with how vicious and complicated modern society was, ordinary people wouldn't dare wander into such places because there were bound to be hidden dangers there. For example, thieves.

After Willow and Jasper were over twenty meters down the pathway, three men suddenly appeared, with one in front of them and two behind them. If an ordinary couple had stumbled upon such a situation, they would have been shivering in fear and at a loss.

Willow noticed the three were relatively young. Obviously, they were too lazy to make an effort and relied only on robbing others to get by, so Willow kindly reminded them, "If you don't want to end up in the hospital, I'd suggest you leave now. Don't even think about robbing us."

"Miss, hand over your bag immediately and take off your watch and jewelry. Otherwise, we'll let you have a taste of what it feels like to get stabbed. Now, move it!" one of them viciously threatened the couple.

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2422-Teaching the Robbers a Lesson

Willow continued to reason with them. "My boyfriend is very strong, so you guys better not offend him, or else things will get ugly."The three men were experienced and not easily scared. When they saw the calm expression on Willow's face, they were agitated and thought she was looking down on their profession as robbers. "I'll count to five. If you still don't hand over your bag and items, we won't be able to ensure your life."After giving them a resigned look, Willow tried again. "I'd advise you guys to turn over a new leaf.""This lady is quite pretty. Let's have a go at her later. It's been a while since we've seen such a beautiful girl." One of the men was overwhelmed with desire and started having lewd ideas about Willow.Jasper's aura instantly changed. His gaze was filled with icy coldness as he clenched his fists tightly, emanating a murderous aura. "Willy, wait here," he gently instructed.In the meantime, the three men were instantly frightened. Jasper's intense stare made them feel like they were being targeted by a wild beast. As a result, the man behind them became somewhat terrified and quickly ran to his companion, discussing what to do next.However, Jasper had already thrown a punch directly at him. The man took the punch and collapsed on the ground while the other two attempted to flee after witnessing that. Jasper immediately grabbed their collars, lifting them up and slamming them forcefully onto the ground. It was just one move, but the three men were already piled on top of each other like a hamburger.Jasper stepped on the man's ribs at the top, causing him to cry in pain, sounding like an animal being slaughtered.

Following the men's pleas, Willow approached them with a sneer. "I warned you, but you chose not to listen, so this is the consequence you have to face. Since you're daring enough to commit crimes, Jasper, teach them a lesson."

"Miss, please spare us!"

"We were wrong."

"We won't do it again."

At first, the three men thought Willow looked cute and beautiful, but the words that came out from her lips sent shivers down their spines.

Jasper exerted more force into his leg, causing the three men to let out cries of pain. Then, he warned them, "If you ever try to rob anyone again, I'll break your legs."

Once that was said, Jasper withdrew his leg, and the three men fled the scene while clutching their chests.

Willow gazed at her man with admiration in her eyes. It started out as a simple stroll, but they ended up teaching some bad guys a lesson. Such righteous actions made her feel very proud. "Come on. Let's go home," she said.

Since Jasper hadn't finished furnishing his home, he held her hand and offered, "I'll start furnishing my home tomorrow. Then, I'll invite you over."

Smiling, Willow replied, "I don't mind that."

"I'll send you home," Jasper said in a deep voice. Though their elders have agreed for them to be together, they weren't engaged yet, so it wouldn't look good for them to stay out together.

Having thought of the same thing, Willow bit her lip as she really wanted to stay the night with him. But what could she do?

She didn't dwell on it because she was determined to stay with him. "I'll make a call. Wait for me."

Once she said so, she walked toward the crowd and took out her phone to call her mother.

"Hey, Willy," Anastasia said as she answered the phone.

"Mom, can I ask for your permission for something? Can I stay out tonight?" Willow shyly asked her mother. After all, she must report such things to her parents and get their approval. Only then would she feel more assured.

"Sure. We feel assured knowing you're with Jasper," Anastasia open-mindedly agreed. Her daughter wasn't a little girl anymore, and they had approved of her relationship with Jasper. Moreover, she had been in their shoes and knew no one could resist their feelings for another.

"Really? Thanks, Mom!" Willow was ecstatic because she had been worried her mother might not agree to let her spend the night out. Who would have thought she would get permission to do so?

After ending the call with her mother, Willow happily ran over to Jasper with the widest grin. "I just asked my mom for permission. I can stay outside tonight."

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2423-Sneaking Into Jasper’s Room

Jasper's gaze gradually deepened as he took her hand. "Let's stay at a hotel."At this point, Willow wasn't picky about where they were spending the night. As long as she could be with him, she was even willing to stay the night on the streets.Later, Willow followed the man to his car. Jasper drove them to a five-star hotel and booked a suite. When Willow entered the room and saw it was further divided into two rooms, she pouted and thought, Are we sleeping in separate beds tonight?She had guessed Jasper's intentions right. He would certainly not cross the line before they got engaged. That was his way of showing respect to the Presgrave parents and Willow.Having trained in the military, he was brought up as an upright young man, and this was one of his excellent traits."Willy, you'll be sleeping in the master bedroom tonight while I'll stay in the other one. Take a shower and rest early," Jasper told her.Blinking her large eyes, Willow asked, "Can't we stay together?" Once she finished, she muttered, "It's not like we haven't slept together before."

Of course, Jasper wanted the same thing, but he couldn't cross the line and had to restrain himself. No matter how much he was in love with Willow, he couldn't go against his morals.

"Willy, be good. It's late, so you should go to bed now." Jasper looked at her with pleading eyes.

Willow knew the man grew up in a disciplined environment, so she couldn't pressure him into going against his beliefs. However, she was not someone who went by the rules. Though she could listen to him and take her shower, whether she would listen to his sleeping arrangements was another matter. She nodded. "Okay. I'll return to my room and take a bath. You should do the same and rest early."

Seeing her do what she was told, Jasper felt relieved but slightly reluctant as well. That was because, deep down, he didn't want to be separated from her.

Once Willow entered the master bedroom and bathed, she sat on the bed in her bathrobe for nearly half an hour and started thinking of a plan. How was she going to crawl into that upright man's bed?

Looking at the time, she also wanted to check and see if he was done showering.

After waiting for a while longer, she took a deep breath and opened the door to the common room but then noticed the door to the other room was closed. What's this? Is he trying to keep me out?

The desire to conquer him suddenly overwhelmed her, and she headed for the other bedroom. She knocked on the door but didn't hear any movement inside and wondered if the man was still taking a shower.

Willow suddenly had a mischievous thought—to peek at the man's figure. Since the hotel's bathroom had a semi-transparent glass design, it was an interesting feature for couples.

Pushing the door open, she heard the sound of running water and couldn't help but smile. Then, she sat on the bed and looked over to the bathroom, where she saw the large floor-to-ceiling glass panel.

She could vaguely make out the tall figure taking a bath inside. Even though his upper body was only a blurry shadow, she could still see that the man was slim and had a defined figure with taut muscles.

Blushing, Willy covered her face. At times, she would feel embarrassed to look, but on the other hand, she also enjoyed the view.

At that moment, she heard the water stop as the man was about to exit the shower. Instantly flustered, she hid on the other side of the bed.

Jasper came out with a towel around his waist and was drying his hair with a towel. The droplets of water dripped down his handsome face, and like a paintbrush, it outlined the man's perfect figure and then disappeared down into the towel around his sexy abdomen.

When he heard a faint noise, he immediately looked toward the other side of the bed and saw a head popping up. He pursed his thin lips, finding it hard to hold back his laughter that might come out at any moment. She came to my room and even failed to hide herself.

"Come on out." He spoke deeply.

Immediately popping her head up, Willow asked in surprise, "How did you know I was here?"

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2424 - Sleeping in the Same Bed

Jasper gazed at her, clad in a white bathrobe and with her waist-length down. That made her already youthful appearance seem even younger, perhaps even a year or two younger than her actual age. "Return to your room." His voice uncontrollably became hoarser because her current appearance made him even more unwilling to touch her.But Willow stubbornly declined. "I'm not going back. I want to sleep in your room, and you can't make me leave."Once that was said, she sat on the bed, indicating that she wasn't going anywhere.Jasper sighed. "Be good."Willow's large eyes wandered up the man's body, and she started blushing the more she looked. Perhaps it was because he had just taken a bath. As he stood under the lights, she could see his naked upper body was covered in a layer of tiny water droplets. His veins were protruding from his skin, and he exuded a strong, dominant aura."C-Can I stay in your room?" she pleaded softly.

Jasper had a strong will, but his will was almost collapsing because of a few words from the young woman, rendering him unable to be firm with her. "Fine, but you sleep first." Since he couldn't reject her, he could only comply.

Blinking her large eyes at him, Willow smiled triumphantly. "I'll sleep here."

After that, she pulled away the covers and lay down.

Only looking at her face above the covers rendered Jasper breathing unevenly. "I'll go drink some water."

Willow nodded and waited for him inside the room. She waited and waited, but the man didn't return. Instead, she was falling asleep while lying under the covers. That was because she couldn't sleep for days because she couldn't see him, so she hadn't slept well in a while.

He was by her side tonight so she could finally sleep peacefully. Now that she was lying in bed, she felt drowsy and unknowingly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Jasper was on the balcony, standing in the cold breeze. Though it was late fall, he still didn't feel the least bit cold because his body was burning up. Even taking a cold shower didn't work.

After estimating the time, Jasper felt he should head back because the young woman was probably anxious from waiting too long. He reaffirmed his will and headed in the direction of his bedroom.

As he gently breathed out, he knew he must control himself and keep calm. He couldn't make a move on that young woman. Not now.

He had a moment of internal conflict before stepping into the room. When he saw the sleeping face under the dim yellow lights, all his emotions went flying out the window. What's this? How can that young lady fall asleep with me beside her?

He thought he would be coming back to a young woman who needed him, but instead, he returned to a sleeping young woman. Such a turn of events rendered him slightly baffled.

At this moment, he could have gone to sleep in the master bedroom, but he was reluctant to do so. He didn't want to leave her. When making the decisions he made earlier, he had used all his will to keep himself under control, but now that the young woman was defenselessly sleeping before him, his reasoning was urging him to break out of his restraints and approach her.

Arriving by Willow's side of the bed, he squatted down, coming within half an arm's length with the sleeping face. His gentle gaze swept over her face, looking at her delicate cheeks, defined features, and fair, delicate skin. Her lips were beautifully plump and had an alluring charm that made him want to kiss her.

This young woman was probably here to punish him. She was punishing him for disappearing for several days and didn't respond to her calls right after returning.

With a bitter smile, Jasper thought such a punishment was torture to him. He wanted to kiss her but refused to disturb her sleep. After all, he could see that she had lost some weight and felt sorry for her.

Pulling the covers away from the other side of the bed, he got in and reached over to pull the young woman into his embrace. In the meantime, Willow was also having a great dream. She and Jasper had gotten married and were accepting blessings from the guests.

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2425 -As Willow was pulled into a warm embrace, she couldn't help but smile.

Looking down at her, Jasper couldn't restrain his emotions any longer. He leaned in and gently kissed her red lips.

That night, she drifted off to sleep, leaving a particular someone in distress. Even with his beautiful girlfriend in his arms, he struggled to calm his racing heart and control his breathing, not wanting to disturb the woman he held close.

He stayed awake until 2.00AM, and his restless energy kept him awake until dawn.

In contrast, Willow enjoyed a restful night's sleep and pleasant dreams. When she awoke, the morning light bathed the room. As she raised her head, she was met with bloodshot eyes. She blinked and asked, "Didn't… Didn't you sleep last night?"

"I did," Jasper replied hoarsely.

"But your eyes are so red!" She expressed concern and began to get up. Suddenly, he pulled her into a tight embrace. "Stay with me a little longer," he whispered, burying his face in her shoulder before drifting off to sleep.

Willow froze instantly and stole a brief glance at Jasper. His eyes were closed, his long, dense eyebrows covering his eyelids. She couldn't help noticing his straight nose, slightly pursed thin lips, and finely defined jawline.

Suddenly, Willow's feet went numb, and as she tried to move, she inadvertently touched something firm. Instantly, her face flushed red, even her ears burning.

Without opening his eyes, he gently warned her, "Don't move."

Willow felt unfairly accused because it wasn't her intention. Reluctantly, she stopped moving and lay still, waiting. Eventually, she heard Jasper's breathing become steady, indicating that he had fallen asleep. That's when she realized he had not slept a wink last night.

While she hadn't done the deed with anyone, she wasn't entirely clueless either. She understood the signs of desire between men and women. Therefore, sleeping in his bed last night had likely cost him a night's sleep. Oh, no! What have I done? Despite this realization, an inexplicable sense of anticipation bubbled within her.

She wasn't rushing to get out of bed, so she allowed the man to embrace her while he slept. Surprisingly, he didn't weigh her down with his body. When his breath brushed against her neck, it sent shivers down her skin, making her consider shifting positions. Yet, the man unexpectedly drew even closer.

At that point, Jasper was so near that Willow's senses were sent into a frenzy. Her eyes widened in amazement as she thought, Even in his sleep, he can… This can't be real!

With a nervous gulp, she found the sensation unsettling. She hesitated to move, realizing this might be why he had been reluctant to share a bed with her. It must have been too much for him.

As her thoughts spiraled, she began to sweat, the rated thoughts making her increasingly anxious. After enduring this for more than ten minutes, she quietly slipped out of bed, moving like a graceful cat. She couldn't withstand the heat radiating from his body and the increasingly wild thoughts in her mind.

Willow reached for her phone, discreetly and smugly taking pictures of the sleeping man from various angles. Once satisfied, she settled onto the couch outside to admire her collection. It felt like a secret possession, something she couldn't bear to share with others, a testament to the handsomeness of her future husband.

Meanwhile, Jasper rarely enjoyed such deep sleep. Lately, he had been relying on medication to help him rest, often staying awake throughout the night. Consequently, he was now in a profound slumber.

Having been through so much in this country recently, an idea struck her—she wanted him to accompany her on a holiday abroad. After all, she was not rushed to get married anyway.

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2426-Willow thought, What truly matters is love, not an official document. Then, she texted Anastasia and shared her plans for a vacation. Anastasia supported her daughter's holiday idea but suggested they go to the family's private island to ease her worries about them traveling too far. After careful consideration, Willow agreed with her mother. After all, she craved an escape from the city's bustle and a chance to embrace peace and quiet.

Meanwhile, Jasper woke up around 1.00PM, feeling an unusual sense of peace as he gazed at the young woman's silhouette on the couch. For once, he had no rush to return to sleep or urgency to leap out of bed. It was because he knew the woman he loved would never leave him.

After he had changed his clothes and emerged from his room, she approached him. "Did you get enough sleep?"

Jasper kissed Willow's forehead and replied, "Have you eaten?"

She shook her head. "Not yet. I was waiting for you."

Looking at the time, he said, "I'll order some food."

Once lunch was brought over, she began outlining her plans for an island vacation. He looked at her affectionately. "My time is entirely yours now. Wherever you are is where I want to be."

A warm smile curved on Willow's lips. "Great. Then, we'll pack our luggage this afternoon. Remember to pack extra clothes and necessities because we'll be there for half a month."

"Sure." Jasper nodded.

Looking at what he usually wore, she thought the man must not own many casual clothes, and most of his clothes must have been given to him by his organization. Although his body was perfect in every way, she had begun enjoying the process of dressing him up.

"Shall we head to the mall?" Willow suggested.

Though Jasper had a feeling he might regret it, he nodded nonetheless.

That afternoon at the mall, he had indeed become her model. While she selected outfits, he tried them on in the dressing room, and they left the store with bags of various sizes.

Her shopping spree was in full swing. Though not a shopaholic, her feminine instinct was hard to restrain, and she shopped relentlessly for two hours.

When they returned to the car, Jasper's SUV was loaded with bags containing clothes, shoes, pajamas, and various necessities. Willow had undoubtedly made quite a haul.

"Want to stop by the supermarket?" she asked, linking her arm with him.

He looked at her without uttering a word, but she was already guiding him toward the supermarket. Before long, he trailed behind her, pushing a shopping cart while she leisurely picked out her preferred snacks.

Suddenly, Willow paused in front of a row of shelves. When she saw the delicate wrappers, she initially assumed they were candies. Then, she looked up and quickly realized her mistake. The sign above her read, "Family Planning." Her cheeks flushed, but she composed herself and began studying the products. She had never bought such items before.

Jasper had noticed her initial mistake and expected her to walk away. To his surprise, she seemed genuinely interested, crossing her arms and focusing on the products with a serious expression. "Why are you looking at these?" he whispered.

"I'm just looking. I'm not a child anymore, so can't I browse?" She pouted slightly and picked up a box before handing it to him. "Are these good?"

He was left speechless and thought, Does she think I've used this before? Unfortunately, he had no expertise in this area whatsoever.

Then, Willow noticed the box she handed Jasper was size S and sheepishly returned it to the shelf. "That's not the right size for you." She quickly grabbed the largest size available and added it to the shopping cart as if it were a hot potato. Then, feeling like it wasn't enough, she selected two more boxes from different brands before finally urging him to leave. "Let's go!"

He nearly burst into laughter, wondering why she was so discreet about it.

Blushing, she was too embarrassed to look at him. So, she pushed him toward the checkout counter and said, "You pay the bill. I'll wait for you outside."

Willow felt quite embarrassed about the situation. She couldn't help but wonder if anyone else had noticed their purchase of so many of those items. The thought of others giving them strange looks made her cringe with embarrassment.

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2427 -After a short while, Jasper finished paying the bill, but Willow remained far away. He approached her with the shopping bags, affectionately ruffled her hair, and held her hand as they left the supermarket.

Once they got in the car, the Presgraves had already arranged for Willow's luggage to be sent ahead so she and Jasper could head to the docks immediately and set sail for the island that night.

Since she was a woman of action, she always followed through on her plans without delay.

On the Presgrave side, they had arranged for a five-star chef and four dedicated servants to cater to Willow and Jasper's needs during their stay.

The yacht departed from the harbor at 3.00PM, marking the start of their romantic voyage at sea and their private island getaway. After a three-hour boat ride, they finally saw a large island come into view. That island belonged to the Presgrave family, which was acquired after Elliot and Anastasia celebrated their wedding there, and it had become their family's go-to vacation destination.

Willow and Jasper moved into a villa by the beach. Since she was tired from the boat ride, he brought her to the balcony to rest. She leaned against his shoulder, gazing at the vast ocean, reveling in the joy of having her beloved by her side.

Since they arrived at the island late at night, their dinner began at 8.00PM. They savored their first candlelit dinner beneath the stars, with Willow recounting the events of the ribbon-cutting ceremony. As she spoke, Jasper listened attentively, occasionally pausing to admire her. To him, she was like a work of art worth savoring.

After dinner, she guided him down her cherished childhood pathway, which led directly to the ocean. She used to pester her father to bring her here because she was too afraid to come alone. Additionally, the beach at night was enchanting, offering the opportunity to find exquisite seashells. Holding hands, Jasper listened to her reminisce about her childhood, painting a vivid picture of a young Willow skipping along this narrow path.

When they arrived on the beach, they spotted several seashells glinting under the moonlight. These treasures were brought ashore from the ocean depths—ones she loved collecting during her younger days. On each visit, she would return with a bucketful of these seashells. While she fondly recalled her childhood memories, she now only observed the shells, not gathering them.

After taking a few steps, she turned to look at the man while enjoying seeing him in the night. She could feel his strong presence, but at the same time, he was also emanating a domineering energy.

Bathed in the moonlight, Jasper appeared tall and well-built. His t-shirt did little to conceal his chiseled muscles, and a mischievous thought crossed Willow's mind—she wanted to peel away the composed facade he wore and explore his other side.

Willow took a few more steps, then suddenly turned around and playfully threw herself into Jasper's arms, much like a mischievous child. He immediately opened his arms and caught her effortlessly.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, yearning to be close. With a slight effort, he scooped her up, her slender legs encircling his waist. It was an intimate embrace, providing her the perfect chance to take the lead. As she drew closer, he comprehended her desires and released one arm to cradle her head, his gaze darkening slightly.

Feeling adventurous, Willow playfully nipped at Jasper's neck, clearly inviting him. His breathing quickened, and his eyes darkened like the night as he gently pinched her chin. He gazed at her flushed face, planting a tender kiss on her forehead, then on the tip of her nose, and finally capturing the soft, crimson lips he yearned for.

Their passionate kiss beneath the moonlight, by the ocean's edge, sent their hearts and minds racing. Eventually, she couldn't hold out any longer and buried her face in the man's chest, breathing heavily as she whispered, "Let's head back."

As he set her down on the ground, her legs gave way, and she felt so weak that she couldn't walk any further.

Novel My baby's daddy chapter 2428-Willow leoned ogoinst Josper, who hod olso seen through her thoughts. He picked her up in his orms ond heoded to the villo.

Once inside, they found thot the moids ond chef hod left to respect their need for privocy. Josper corried her to the couch ond looked down ot her, osking ployfully, "Are your legs still like jelly?"

Willow's words left Josper momentorily speechless, but then he chuckled. "Thot's reossuring. Alright, Miss Presgrove, you better toke good core of me for the rest of your life."

Willow leaned against Jasper, who had also seen through her thoughts. He picked her up in his arms and headed to the villa.

Once inside, they found that the maids and chef had left to respect their need for privacy. Jasper carried her to the couch and looked down at her, asking playfully, "Are your legs still like jelly?"

She wished the ground would swallow her up, embarrassed by the unexpected weakness in her knees after a kiss.

"Do you need help getting to your room?" he asked again.

Gulping, Willow gazed up at Jasper. She noticed he looked different from this morning. His passionate and deep eyes were now filled with a strong desire he was trying to restrain.

Summoning her courage, she suddenly hooked her arms around his neck. Her red lips brushed against his ear as she whispered, "Tonight, I want to be yours."

His body tensed in response. He knew this was inevitable but wondered whether she was being too hasty. "Are you sure?" he rasped, afraid she might regret it.

With a raised brow, she assured him, "Don't worry. I'll make it up to you."

Willow's words left Jasper momentarily speechless, but then he chuckled. "That's reassuring. Alright, Miss Presgrave, you better take good care of me for the rest of your life."

She threw herself into his arms. "Stop teasing me."

With that, he carried her upstairs to the bedroom. When they entered the room, she requested, "Keep the lights off."

Jasper complied and kept the room in darkness. He gently placed Willow on the bed, and before she could grasp the situation, his lips fervently met hers. Just as she had regained her strength, another intense kiss left her feeling weak. In the dimly lit room, all her senses were on overdrive.

"May I?" The man's moist lips landed on her ear as he made one final request.

She swallowed nervously. "Yes."

The man's breath grew heavy in the darkness, and she felt a strong force pressing down on the soft bed moments later. Her vision went black as the man covered her eyes with his large hand before kissing her passionately. The sensation was thrilling, and she was driven by it. She felt excited and eager, with no trace of fear.

Outside the window, under the night sky, waves crashed vigorously onto the beach one after another. But inside the room, overwhelming affection filled the air.

…

As dawn approached, Jasper opened his eyes and looked down at the small face on his chest. He noticed Willow's eyes were slightly red and moist. He felt a deep tenderness and kissed her forehead, then held her gently as if she were the most precious gift in the world.

She slept late into the day, not because she wanted to but because of the exhaustion from the previous night. When she finally opened her eyes and met the man's affectionate gaze, she felt so shy that she buried her face in her pillow, reluctant to acknowledge what had transpired in the darkness.

"Last night… Did I perform poorly last night?" Jasper asked nervously. This was the first time he was unsure whether he had performed well.

Only then did Willow shyly raise her head and nod at him. Then, she nodded again, whispering her answer, "You were incredible."

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he pulled her and the blanket into his arms, gazing down at her. Blushing under his scrutiny, she remembered the previous night's events, and her heart started to race. He cupped her face and pressed his warm lips to hers.

"Uhm!" She shivered and thought, Again?

Sensing her tension, Jasper kissed her again before letting her go with a chuckle. "Are you scared?"

Willow's unconvincing side popped out as she raised her chin to reply, "Who says I'm scared?"

Aimee's breoth cought. "Are you two together?"

Willow corrected her, "We're not just together; we're engoged ond getting morried soon."

Aimee hodn't onticipoted thot Josper ond Willow were still on item, ond she struggled to hide her disoppointment. As she ottempted to compose herself, her shorp eyes cought the telltole morks on Willow's delicote neck—unmistokoble love bites. The sight hit her like o blow to the stomoch, ond she turned to leove.

Willow olso felt o sense of relief. She could tell thot Aimee's feelings for Josper hod been there for o long time, given their shored history in this ploce. Willow pondered thot she ond the mon hod only known eoch other for less thon six months, moking her empothize with Aimee's disoppointment ond unfoirness.

Inside Antoine's office, Josper wos engrossed in his uncle's discussion obout his upcoming surgery. Suddenly, o teom member opprooched ond interrupted them, "Josper, Aimee went looking for you just now. Why ore you here?"

Aimee was surprised that Jasper had brought Willow back with him.

As Willow glanced at Aimee, she wondered if Aimee's feelings for Jasper remained as intense as before.

Aimee's tone was far from welcoming when she finally spoke. "It's you, but what are you doing here?" she exclaimed in surprise.

Willow replied, "I have my reasons for being here."

Aimee frowned. "Is this a place anyone can just walk into?"

Willow clarified, "Outsiders aren't usually allowed, but family members are an exception."

Aimee's breath caught. "Are you two together?"

Willow corrected her, "We're not just together; we're engaged and getting married soon."

Aimee hadn't anticipated that Jasper and Willow were still an item, and she struggled to hide her disappointment. As she attempted to compose herself, her sharp eyes caught the telltale marks on Willow's delicate neck—unmistakable love bites. The sight hit her like a blow to the stomach, and she turned to leave.

Willow also felt a sense of relief. She could tell that Aimee's feelings for Jasper had been there for a long time, given their shared history in this place. Willow pondered that she and the man had only known each other for less than six months, making her empathize with Aimee's disappointment and unfairness.

Inside Antoine's office, Jasper was engrossed in his uncle's discussion about his upcoming surgery. Suddenly, a team member approached and interrupted them, "Jasper, Aimee went looking for you just now. Why are you here?"

Jasper appeared startled and hurriedly left the office. However, Antoine knew the complex situation between his nephew and Aimee. So, he took out a document for assigning a member of their military unit to higher-ups. He jotted down her name.

When Jasper returned to his room and found Willow inside, he let out a sigh of relief, fearing Aimee might cause trouble for her.

"Your comrade was looking for you just now," Willow informed him.

"I know. Did she say anything to you?" he asked nervously.

She smiled. "It's fine. I was just conversing with her."

He affectionately ruffled her hair and pulled her into his arms. "Tell me if you feel aggrieved."

She shook her head and replied, "I don't feel aggrieved.

Shortly after, Aimee was called to Antoine's office. When she learned about the transfer order, she remained surprisingly composed. "Mr. Wyatt, did you arrange this intentionally?"

Antoine tried to persuade her, saying, "This is the best choice for your future. Some things can't be forced, and you can embark on a new mission in a different environment."

Clenching her fists, Aimee acknowledged that she had let her love blind her and couldn't control her desires. She knew Jasper was in love with Willow, but she refused to admit she was any less deserving than Willow and couldn't let go of her feelings. "When am I leaving?"

"In three days."

"Okay." She agreed to the transfer but still wanted to know the results of Jasper's surgery before departing.

"In three days."

"Okay." She agreed to the transfer but still wanted to know the results of Jasper's surgery before departing.

After 7.00PM, Jasper underwent several checkups while Willow anxiously waited outside the military medic's operating theater. Despite his assurances that the surgery wasn't risky, she was more nervous than if she were the one going under the knife.

Antoine approached her and tried to ease her anxiety. "It's just a minor surgery. Try not to worry too much."

Although Willow nodded, she couldn't sit still due to her nervousness. Meanwhile, Aimee stood nearby, watching Willow with an inscrutable expression in her eyes.

Willow's gaze remained fixed on the operating theater's door, and her nervousness was evident on her face as she clenched her fists.

From a distance, Aimee observed Willow critically. She wanted to see what made Willow deserving of Jasper's affection.

Under the bright lights, Willow's slender figure stood with an innate sense of grace and nobility. Yet, she also appeared vulnerable, stirring the instinct in men to protect her.
