Chapter 2338

“We’re so lucky,” Willow said happily, turning her head to look at Jasper. Jasper glanced at the time,

then looked up at the nearly nine-foot-high opening. “It’s getting late.”

“Are we able to climb up?” asked Willow. The pit was too high, and the soil above was soft. There was

no way to climb out of this large pit. “It looks like we’ll have to spend the night here.” Jasper sighed.

“We’ll have to wait for rescue.”

Willow nodded. “Alright, we’re not in a hurry either. I have water, biscuits, and even a mat!” Then, she

took out a communication device. “Strange. Why isn’t there any response? Where did the signal go?”

Jasper also noticed that the time on his watch was displayed wrongly. It seemed like the magnetic field

had gone berserk as they entered the cave.

“There must be something affecting the magnetic field here. That is why we can’t contact the outside

world,” Jasper said calmly. Willow looked surprised. “Does this mean something is going on in this

tomb?”

The tomb behind them was also covered in soil, revealing only a few faintly visible murals and nearby

stone stumps. Jasper didn’t want her to stay here. He jumped up and touched a stone, but it soon

collapsed, causing him to step back to avoid the falling rocks Willow grabbed his arm and said, “Stop it.

Let’s wait for the rescue team to arrive! This island isn’t that big, so they’ll surely find us soon.”

Jasper had no choice but to stay in the cave with her. He didn’t mind the surroundings, but he was

worried about Willow and couldn’t bear to see her suffer.

There was still some light coming into the cave, so it wasn’t too dark. Jasper cleared a clean spot while

Willow spread out a surprisingly. clean mat. Then, she rummaged through her. bag and took out a

bottle of water. “We only have one bottle of water left.” “You drink it first.”

“I’m not thirsty. You drink it.” Willow gave the water to him. “I’m not thirsty either.” Jasper refused since

he wanted to keep the water for her.

I’m not thirsty either,’ Willow replied truthfully. After all, she had just drank water before climbing down.

Then, she continued taking photos of the surroundings. After some examination, she was certain they

had indeed. found the tomb they were looking for.

As darkness fell, the cave gradually became pitch black. Jasper took out a flashlight and shone a small

area around them. Still, the rest was in complete darkness. A sense of fear rose within Willow, and she

subconsciously moved closer to Jasper, snuggling up against him. Sensing her fear, Jasper pulled her

into his embrace and comforted her. “Jasper, can you tell me something about yourself?”

“What do you want to know?” Jasper’s deep voice resonated in the quiet space. In such a serene

place, Willow found his voice captivating as she listened to him speak. It was as if his voice was the

sound of a cello, calming her nerves.

“Anything will do,” Willow replied, simply wanting to hear his voice. She curled up like a small animal,

nestling in his embrace entirely.

Jasper lowered his head and saw her in his embrace. Her soft and plump face rested against his arms

as she looked at him with clear eyes. In that split second, Jasper’s mind went blank, forgetting what he

wanted to say. He was captivated by her beauty.

On the other hand, Willow was still waiting to hear his story. Yet, Jasper was looking at her. with his

dark pupils. His eyes emitted a glow as if trying to look through her.

The atmosphere was so quiet that the sound of Jasper gulping became unusually clear. Willow blinked

and reached into her bag. Then, she handed him the bottle of water and said, “Are you thirsty? Have

some water!”
