Jasper indeed wanted to eliminate Bucky and his henchmen quickly, for they posed a threat to Willow.
Furthermore, all these people were internationally wanted criminals-malignant tumors harming society.
They need to be eliminated as soon as possible.
âNo need,â he said indifferently. Aimeeâs heart sank. She closed her eyes bitterly and asked, âDo you really like her that much?â
Jasper didnât answer, for he didnât have the answer to that question himself. But he knew that he wouldnât allow anyone to threaten Willowâs safety.
Just as he was about to leave, Aimee ran up and stopped him. âJasper, I can report you if you donât comply with the organizationâs arrangements. You know full well the consequences.â With that, she emphasized, âI have to go with you.â
Jasper was certainly better suited running solo than working in teams. However, it was the organizationâs rule to work in teams. Hence, its members had to act together, or they would be regarded as disregarding organizational discipline. âStep aside, Aimee, Jasper said gravely.
âNo, I canât have you go into danger alone. I know youâre fully capable of going on this mission alone, but weâll be safer in pairs.â Aimee wasnât joking, either. She didnât want Jasper to go on the mission alone.
However, determination enveloped Jasperâs eyes, and he walked past her to leave. Aimee bit her lip, furious, glaring at his retreating figure with resentment. Jasper doesnât need to kill Bucky so urgently at all. We will get our chances as long as the man is still in the country.
But Aimee could tell Jasper was worried that Buckyâs men would threaten Willowâs safety. That was why he was in such a hurry to get the job done; he was concerned about Willow. Just then, her phone rang, and she walked over to answer it. âMr. Antoine.â
âYou two have reached the safe house, havenât you? Rest up before proceeding with the mission.
Antoine Wyattâs voice came from the other end. âYour dear nephew has gone on the mission alone.
Thereâs no talking him out of it,â Aimee reported resentfully.
âWhat? He went alone?! That stubborn rascal still canât follow the rules and comply with organizational arrangements.â Antoine huffed resentfully as well. However, he believed his nephew would return successfully, like he always did.
But this annoying worry he carried gave concern to someone behind him. âAimee, Jasper is used to working independently. You should be more at ease. Itâs not that he dislikes you.â Antoine had to console her. Aimee forced a bitter smile. âI know.â
âAlright, report to me immediately if thereâs any situation.â Antoine hung up on his end. However, Aimee was still upset. She picked up the laptop and searched for Jasperâs whereabouts. Their locations were linked, and at the moment, Jasperâs signal was rapidly moving, indicating that he was in a car.
As for his destination, it turned out to be the hotel where Bucky was located. Aimee suddenly remembered seeing him take a sniper rifle when he was gearing up.
At that, she sighed. Jasperâs skills were indeed. outstanding. Once he set his sights on someone, there was no escape. Moreover, as long as he had a gun in his hand, he had the confidence to shoot through anything.
Suddenly, she felt helpless. She believed, to him, she wasnât a comrade but a burden. When Willow returned home, Anastasia had also woken up. She threw on a jacket and went downstairs to check on her returning daughter. She had been anxious all night, knowing Willow was out there alone while the thunder and lightning roared intensely.
âMom, why are you awake at this time?!â Willow blinked.
âWorried about you, of course! Which friend were you with?â âHuh, um⦠Troy,â Willow answered somewhat guiltily. Anastasiaâs eyes lit up in response. âDo you like Troy?â
Willow had been spending a lot of time with Troy lately, and it hadnât gone unnoticed by Anastasia. Troy came from an excellent family background, and Anastasia was satisfied with both his background and character. If Willow liked him, she would support her.
âWhat kind of âlikeâ are you referring to?â Willow countered, and Anastasia threw the question back at her. âThat depends on your feelings for him.â
