NovelEnglishRemnants of the killing desire inside Jasper’s eyes terrified Jett, making him retreat backward, afraid the other
would throw him into the shark-infested waters.
At that moment, Willow arrived with the others, and Jett immediately pleaded to her, saying, “Miss Presgrave,
please save me.”
Willow did not expect Jasper to bring Jett over here, and she snorted. “Jett, how bold of you to take something
that’s mine.”
“Miss Presgrave, it's all a misunderstanding. I'm just an avid scuba diver.” “I was going to surrender those
artifacts to the country, so you'd better not have any ideas. about them.”
Then, Jasper spoke up. “Lock him up for a few days and release him once we're finished here.” “Do you even
have the authority to do so? I will sue you all!” Jett bellowed as he refused to get locked up.
“That's a good idea. We're in no man’s land anyway, so let's do it!” Willow had the sidea, but she was even
happier that Jasper had. returned safe and sound.

Eventually, Jett was locked up while his men returned to his base. Though confused at what had happened, those
men did not take any action.
Their salvage work went smoothly for the next two days, and Willow dived with them. This line of work was very
meaningful to her.
Meanwhile, Jasper stayed with her all the while, and after a week’s worth of salvaging and searching, they
finally, retrieved all the artifacts from the sunken ship. There were over seven thousand items found, which was
an immense number.
Once those artifacts were retrieved, they had to be brought back to be preserved and repaired. That meant
today would be Willow's last day here, so they released Jett that afternoon and left with the boat.
Unconvinced that Willow had brought everything away, Jett dived back down to. double-check. When he saw the
three empty sunken ships, he was so angry that he almost fainted. Needless to say, those two had taken
everything away.
After almost two months, Willow returned with a rewarding experience. On the way home, she received several
calls, and besides dealing with work matters, what she enjoyed the most was her alone twith Jasper..
This time, the place they were staying at was even more luxurious. They even had a chef, so they could eat five-
Michelin star dishes every day. However, Willow was not a hedonist. She had been enjoying such a lifestyle since
birth, so it was nothing special to her. After all, her father was dying to spoil her.
However, there was one thing she dared not ask. Would Jasper stay around after they returned home? Would he
stay with her? Would he leave? After having spent so much twith him, she was used to his presence, so she
did not want him to leave. “Miss Presgrave, we're one day away from the mainland,” reported the captain as he
approached them.
“Okay.” Willow smiled, but at the stime, she beceven more tense. There were sthings she needed
to ask Jasper by tonight. She was afraid she might not see him again once they left the ship. Later, Willow
brought a card with her as she knocked on the man’s door.
“Cin, Jasper responded. Sitting across from him, she propped her chin. to look at the man. “Jasper, you've
worked hard. | might not have finished this task without your help.”

“Well, 1 did these things for you willingly,” her replied in all seriousness.
“Here. This is for you.” As she spoke, she placed a credit card on the table and pushed it toward him. “There's 15
million inside. It’s my compensation for your hard work.” Willow was indeed the daughter of a wealthy family;
even a small reward was millions of bucks.
When Jasper saw the card, he was stunned for a few seconds before he shook his head. “I won't take your
money.”
Surprised, Willow asked, “Why don’t you want it? Is it because you think ofas your family?”
The man was silent. She then asked, “You'd only reject repayment from those you're close with! So, do you
consideryour family?”
However, the man had no chance of replying, for Willow pushed the card forward again and puffed her cheeks.
“Regardless, you should take the money!”
After having seen through her tricks, Jasper shook his head while smiling. “I won't take your money.”
