Chapter 2330 Jealousy Unveiled

“Tommy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?” Willow’s irritation was palpable, for her

team members had been roused from their slumber, the tranquility shattered by the man’s unexpected

presence.

At her words, Tommy immediately looked somewhat aggrieved. “I came because I was worried about

you. Look, I brought a boatload of supplies for you. I’ve got whatever you need. I even brought a chef

and bodyguards to protect you.”

She gazed at him in stunned silence, her words caught in her throat. “I don’t need them, thank you.

Now please leave and don’t interfere with my work.”

“I came all this way. How can you just ask me to leave so easily? I promise not to affect your work. Just

treat me as an invisible person or even air.” Then, he walked past Jasper and looked at Willow

pleadingly. “Willow, please don’t chase me away. You have no idea how hard it was for me to catch up

to you.”

As she pondered the situation, she realized that chasing him away would only be futile and a wasted

effort. Ultimately, she reluctantly allowed him to stay because he brought the essential supplies they

desperately needed. “Alright, since you’re here, you can stay,” she conceded. What’s more, he arrived

with a contingent of formidable bodyguards. Should we encounter any pirate ships, their presence

alone would be enough to strike fear into those pirates.

At this moment, Jasper looked at Willow with an indescribable gaze while Tommy was overjoyed. “I

knew you wouldn’t chase me away.”

She then turned to Winston and said, “Gather everyone and ask them to return to rest. There’s no need

to panic.”

“Alright. I was worried about sending someone for supplies, but now that your friend has brought them,

we can rest assured.” After saying this, he gathered everyone and asked them to return to sleep while

leaving a few on guard around the perimeter.

“Willow, where will you sleep?” As Tommy laid eyes upon the inviting tents, a surge of hope washed

over him, envisioning a warm welcome and a space reserved just for him.

“It’s too late tonight, Tommy. You and your people can sleep on the boat,” she said.

“It’s okay. I’m not tired. I’ll stay here and keep watch for you.” His heart fluttered with such intense

excitement that sleep eluded him. The anticipation of the impending journey, where he could finally be

by her side day and night, consumed his every thought. It will surely be romantic, and we can leave

many beautiful memories.

With a few strides, Willow distanced herself from the crowd, and like a shadow, Jasper trailed behind.

Unexpectedly, he gently clasped her wrist, wordlessly guiding her to a serene boulder at the edge.

Dazed for a moment, she eventually acquiesced and trailed behind him. In hushed tones, he urged her,

“Chase him away. We don’t need any extra people here.”

“He’s my friend, and it’s too late tonight. I’ll persuade him to leave in the morning,” she replied, her eyes

lifting to meet him.

After hearing Willow’s reply, Jasper sighed inexplicably as he uttered, “Okay. They must leave

tomorrow morning.”

In a moment of revelation, her eyes sparkled with intrigue, and she leaned in closer, whispering, “Are

you jealous?”

In an instant, a faint blush danced across his handsome features, revealing a fleeting moment of

embarrassment. He quickly averted his gaze, mustering a soft-spoken reply, “No.”

Her eyes widened with surprise as she blinked, and then she couldn’t resist asking again, “Really?”

This time, a deafening silence followed, broken only by the sudden appearance of Tommy. Curious, he

turned to Willow and asked, “What are you two talking about?”

With a serene smile, she uttered, “Nothing.” Then, curiosity sparkled in her eyes as she inquired, “How

did you manage to locate me?”

“Through my network of information, of course. Anyway, that’s not important. The important thing is that

I finally found you,” Tommy said with a contented grin, glancing at Jasper with a hint of disapproval.

“Who is he?”

“He’s the chief consultant of our archaeological team,” she introduced.

As Tommy gazed at Jasper, an instinctual sense of rivalry surged within him, a primal force that

seemed inherently masculine. He couldn’t help but perceive Jasper as a formidable threat, exerting an

invisible yet palpable pressure upon him.

Actually, Tommy was also good-looking, and he came from a wealthy family with assets worth billions.

Yet, amidst this glamor, his heart’s desire for Willow remained an open secret within their social circle.

From the instant his gaze met hers, a bold declaration of affection escaped his lips, heedless of the

occasion or onlookers.

She couldn’t shake him off since they had been classmates from high school to college. Eventually, she

accepted his unwavering pursuit, opting for peaceful coexistence and embracing him as a steadfast

friend.

“Willow, let’s—” Tommy was about to approach Willow, eager to share the captivating tales of his

journey in catching up with her.
