NovelEnglishWillow and sof the other team members were busy poring over the map of the islands with a magnifying glass as they tried to
find clues regarding the exact location based on geomancy and astrological calculations.
She was still busy with her thoughts when the door opened. She didn’t turn around because she thought it was probably just one of
the students who cin. However, Cameron's voice rang out behind her. “Willow, the special representative, Mr. Hugh Wyatt, is
here.”
Willow finally set the magnifying glass down and turned around to look at the newcomer with a polite smile. Her expression went
from shock to joy in mere seconds and she nearly threw herself at him.
It was the meaningful look from him that made her compose herself. She cleared her throat and walked over to greet him
courteously. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Wyatt. I'm Willow Presgrave, the sponsor of this archaeological expedition.” Willow held her
hand out..
Jasper shook it and said, “I'm Hugh Wyatt, the special representative.” His crisp, deep, and magnetic voice drew the attention of
three young women on the team. Oh, my! What a young and handsspecial representative! Willow smiled. “Can | speak to you
in private, Mr. Wyatt?”
“Of course.”

to go in which he readily did. As soon as Willow closed the door, she threw herself at the man and flung her arms around his neck.
“Why did you chere?” she couldn't help but ask.
Jasper held her by the waist to save her from exerting herself. He “I'm on my break right now so | chere to protect you.”
Willow was startled. “You're on your break right now? You chere just to protect me?” Her heart warmed as a dazzling grin
spread out across her face. “That means you're trying to Woo me, Mr. Wyatt!”
Jasper looked at her with smiling eyes and said nothing. “Are you or aren't you?” Willow wanted a straight answer. “If you're not,
then | don’t want you to protect me. My dad senteight bodyguards anyway. | have enough people to protect me.”
All of a sudden, Jasper wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her head. “Can you not expect quite so much from me?
Isn't it good that | came?” Willow buried herself in his arms and nodded. “Okay.”
Fine! | won't ask him to say why he came. It's enough that | know he cbecause of me. Just then, Willow's phone started
ringing. She checked the screen and said nervously, “My dad's calling me.”
“Go ahead and take the call.” “Hi, Dad,” Willow said into the phone. “I hired four chefs for you, Willow. They'll follow you around the
islands.” “That's not necessary, Dad!” Willow chuckled awkwardly. “I'm not here on vacation. I'm working. You don’t need to hire
chefs for me.”
“What if you can’t get used to eating the food that’s available there?” Elliot was worried about his daughter and sorely wished he
could head over and act as her bodyguard himself.
Willow looked at the man on the couch before responding with a smile, “Don’t worry, Dad! I'll take good care of myself. In any case,
many important people are coming along on this trip..
It would be so embarrassing if | brought a bunch of chefs withtoo!” She was certain that any meal she shared with this man
would be an enjoyable one. “Okay. As you wish.” Elliot had no choice but to abide by Willow's wishes.
“Don’t worry, Dad. I'll cback safe and sound, and I'll make sure | don’t lose any weight too! I'll still be your happy and healthy
little girl when | get back,” Willow assured Elliot.
“Alright. Make sure you keep in touch,” Elliot reminded. “I will, Dad. I'm hanging up now!” Willow ended the call and walked back to
the couch. She was already missing his embrace and wanted to dive back into his arms.
Willow sat across from Jasper with her beautiful eyes fixed on him as if she feared that he would vanish in a blink of an eye. If
someone else stared at Jasper the way she did, they would have either gotten a serious beating by now or been totally ignored
instead.
