Chapter 2256

Willow sat in the car and absentmindedly opened a link sent by her archaeology teacher. To her great

surprise, they had finally found the remains of an ancient civilization they had been searching for.

“Willy, we will organize a secret archaeological expedition when you’re back.”

She replied, “Okay, Mr. Swayze. I can’t wait already!” “There’s no need to rush since I’m still making

preparations. You’ll be able to catch up when you’re back.”

“Okay!” She happily sent a smiling face emoji and looked out of the window, enjoying the beauty of the

scenery.

Just then, a car suddenly accelerated from behind and rammed into her vehicle. “Ah!” she screamed in

fright as the intense impact made her heart race. “Mr. Mooney, what’s happening?”

“Miss, Presgrave, hold on tight. Unidentified vehicles are approaching us.” Dario Mooney immediately

stabilized the car and radioed the other two cars in their earpieces. “Quickly stop them. Don’t let them

get close to my car. I’ll escort Miss to safety first.”

“You go ahead. We’ll hold them off.” One of the bodyguard’s cars behind them swiftly swerved and

intercepted the black car that had just rammed into them. The bodyguards approached to inspect it but

found it empty. The car turned out to be automated.

His countenance changed, and he immediately alerted the other members through the earpiece. “Be

careful. The vehicle that rammed into me was an automated one. They surely have other tricks up their

sleeves. Protect Miss Presgrave at all costs.”

Simultaneously, he did not notice the accelerating truck next to him. Jasper glanced at the opened car

door and also saw the automated vehicle. In contrast, he was not surprised at all because these people

were a group of highly intelligent criminals with advanced technology. They would do anything to

achieve their goals, explaining why he stayed behind to protect Willow.

As her bodyguards were unaware of the capabilities of these opponents, they were bound to make

some mistakes even if they were formidable. Once they made a mistake, she would be in grave

danger, even risking her life.

Willow’s heart was pounding even though she had encountered such situations before. Who’s chasing

me? Did I offend someone? “Don’t be afraid, Miss. There’s a police station up ahead. I’ll drive the car in

and request protection from the cops.”

“Okay, Mr. Mooney. Just focus on driving. I’m not scared.” She steadied herself but held onto. her

seatbelt tightly, gripping the handle.

A black SUV was escorting a black sedan at high speed on the road. However, the SUV behind them

was suddenly hit by the oncoming truck just as they arrived at an intersection before it flipped over.

Willow heard the commotion behind her and cried in pain, “Jayden…”

“Miss, hold on tight, Dario spoke in a deep voice. He had to get her to the police station as soon as

possible. Understanding that the opponents they encountered this time were not ordinary people, he

knew he had to escort her away safely.

As they approached the police station, Dario was about to drive toward it when four or five black SUVS

emerged and blocked their way. These vehicles caused a series of accidents, but it was clear that no

one was inside when they looked in from the windows. They were automated vehicles that had their

systems hacked.

At that point, those vehicles were stationed in their way, completely blocking the road.

Dario quickly realized the situation and shifted. into reverse, backing the car up as he had noticed an

alternative road earlier. However, a small truck drove up alongside them, and the window rolled down,

revealing the figure of Jasper. He sternly exclaimed, “Hand her over to me.”

Jasper!” Willow was shocked to see him. Why is he here? Dario paid no attention to him because he

could not trust anyone with Willow at such a critical point. However, Jasper’s truck swerved, forcing

Dario’s car to a stop. He pushed open the door and said, “They’re after Willow because of me. Hand

her over to me for her safety.”

“No, she’s our honorable lady. I must ensure her safety,” Dario declared.
