Chapter 2370: The Awards Ceremony

Therefore, this made Willow's accomplishments the most notable among the Top 10 Outstanding

Figures of this year.

Around 10.00AM, with roughly ten minutes left until the commencement of the awards ceremony,

Willow noticed that her parents, Jared, and Ellen had arrived whereas Jasper was absent.

A wave of disappointment surged within her. Didn't he promise to come? Why isn't he here?

There was no sign of him when the awards ceremony commenced and unfolded. However, at that very

moment, she felt a pair of eyes fixating on her around the corner. She couldn't help but glance over.

Her surprise had no bounds when she did so. It turned out that a certain man who was dressed in a

police uniform was standing there staring at her and had successfully masked himself as a member of

today's security team. Her heart was immediately filled with profound emotion as their gazes met.

This man had always exuded a handsome charm regardless of his attire. The police uniform seemed to

suit him particularly well as it accentuated his righteous and awe-inspiring aura.

Willow was called upon to give a speech as the awards ceremony began. She made a brief speech

with graceful confidence, unfazed. In the audience, Elliot and Anastasia wore proud and delighted

smiles as they were overjoyed that they had raised such exceptional children.

After Willow finished speaking, she cast a sweet smile toward the corner of the room. "In addition to

expressing my gratitude to my teammates, I must also extend my thanks to one person. This task

would have been impossible to accomplish without him. I hope he knows how important he has always

been to me."

This statement bore a dual significance. Elliot finally understood what his daughter meant when his

gaze shifted to the corner. It seemed that certain things were quietly unfolding.

Jared applauded as he was so proud of his sister on this special day. She wasn't just beautiful, but she

also appeared to have grown up. As the elder brother, he couldn't help but feel delighted when he

thought about how Willow, who had always seemed like a child, had grown up to this point!

"Willow is truly remarkable!" Ellen exclaimed sincerely.

"This girl has truly grown up," Jared remarked with a sense of nostalgia.

After descending from the stage following the awards, Willow deliberately walked in the direction where

Jasper was situated. Just as she was about to step down, she feigned a stumble, and the man

standing nearby swiftly reached out and grabbed her wrist to stop her from falling.

Willow nearly half-collapsed into his embrace. In a place where no one could see, a blossom of

emotion bloomed within her heart.

"Be careful," Jasper muttered.

"I know!" Willow replied with a smile tugging at her lips. She then returned to her seat.

Willow's mind seemed to be elsewhere throughout the commendation ceremony. She rose from her

seat once again after handing the award to her father.

Jasper stood by the door as if he were a security guard. Willow walked over to his side. "Mr. Wyatt, are

you on duty?"

He was indeed occupied with his duties. He was here today to ensure the security of this ceremony.

Jasper turned his head slightly to look at Willow. She was dressed in an ensemble of muted gray and

exuded a sophisticated elegance. With her hair gathered up, an air of maturity emanated from her. Her

enigmatic beauty carried an effervescent vitality that was tantalizingly elusive, stirring a sense of

yearning within observers.

"Do I look good today?" Willow tilted her head to the side and looked at him with an endearing charm.

Jasper nodded in agreement and said genuinely, "You look stunning."

"Do you like it then?" Willow asked with a wink.

He stared at her petite face, a suppressed intensity flickering in his eyes. He replied in a deep voice,

"You should return to the ceremony."

"Some of the credit for today's honor goes to you, Jasper. The award should also belong to you,"

Willow remarked since her achievements were built upon his efforts.

"You deserve it," Jasper asserted.

Willow beamed. "Can I take that as you saying what's yours is also mine? Oh, by the way, I told my dad

that there will be no celebration dinner tonight. I want to celebrate with you instead. Are you coming?"

Willow invited him.

Jasper hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded. "Alright! My treat."

She was overjoyed. "It's a date, then. I'll be looking forward to your plans!"

Willow returned to the ceremony happily. Jasper's gaze turned tender, but it was also tinged with a hint

of sorrow and resignation as he watched her leave.

When Jasper returned to his car, his phone rang. He answered the phone. "Hello."
