Willow’s eyes widened as she exclaimed in excitement, “This is fantastic! We finally found it, Winston.We’ve finally made a breakthrough.”
Winston, who was equally thrilled, gave a firm nod in return. “Yes! We didn’t just achieve somethingspectacular as it’s also a great achievement for our country.”
“My parents’ salvage team is on their way, but it will take them about five days to arrive. We’ll have tokeep this a secret from Jett for now. They have definitely come prepared with all the necessaryequipment in order to start salvaging immediately.”novelbin
“Since this is international waters, we can’t restrict their actions. We will need to act as quickly aspossible,” Winston reminded, growing tense.
Jasper nodded in agreement. After he returned to his room, he took a shower and started working onhis computer. Johanna then brought him a cup of coffee, and Willow handed the cup to him.
“Have some coffee to stay alert!” Willow said to him.
Jasper obediently took a few sips of coffee. Just as he was about to put the cup down, Willow held ontothe cup and started drinking from the same cup.
Jasper’s heart skipped a beat as he worked on his computer and swiftly noticed several hackeraccounts attempting to breach his defenses. A faint smirk appeared on his lips; it was a smile ofcontempt.
Willow placed the cup of coffee down as she looked at his broad back and reached out tentatively.Even though she couldn’t understand the complex programs on his computer, she still wanted to benear him as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her chin against his shoulder.
He turned his face to the side in response. She couldn’t help but giggle as their cheeks pressed againstthe others’ before she planted two quick kisses on his cheek.
His composure wavered slightly, and a faint smile crept onto his lips as he was unable to resist thesweet gesture. It was clear that she was also basking in the moment as she simply nestled into hisshoulder.
In the afternoon, the two of them enjoyed the subtle atmosphere in the room, which was even moreexhilarating than being in a real romantic relationship.
“What are you doing?” Willow asked.
“Building a firewall,” Jasper replied absentmindedly while his fingers typed away complex code thatseemed to flow effortlessly under his hands.
She shot him a look of admiration. “You’re amazing.”
Although he had heard similar praises in the past, it was different when it fell from her lips.
At this moment, the atmosphere in Jett’s team was tense and restless. His subordinates were allbrainstorming for ideas when one of them blurted, “Why don’t we check underwater? Perhaps the shipsank here all those years ago?”
“You’re right! We haven’t found anything on the island yet, but there might be clues underwater.”
Jett started contemplating the plausibility of this option; even though it might be a waste of resources, itwas still worth a try.
His subordinates, feeling the pressure and fearing criticism, decided to take the plunge into the sea tosee if they could find any clues.
Willow arranged for her family’s bodyguards to spy on their movements. When evening fell, theyreported some crucial information.
Willow, Winston, and Jasper discussed the situation in the meeting room.
Willow was understandably anxious since the shipwreck was nearby. There was a high chance theothers might very well stumble upon it if they went underwater.
“We can’t let them find it before we do; otherwise, they’ll take everything for themselves,” she mutteredanxiously. She was growing increasingly agitated because this operation meant a lot to her.
Jasper put his hand on her shoulder reassuringly. “Don’t worry. I won’t let them get their hands on ituntil we do.”
Winston sighed wearily. “Mr. Wyatt, based on my observations last time, Jett Jefferson has broughtover a dozen muscles with him. We do have our men, but things might get out of control the instantwe’re in conflict. The artifacts are important, but so are our lives, especially Sweetie here.”
She was the baby of the Presgrave Family.
Since they couldn’t decide on what to do for now, Willow stepped outside to catch some fresh air. Shehad asked around and discovered that her family’s salvage team would take at least three days tomake it here.
Jasper leaned against the railing and tenderly gazed at her stressed figure. At that moment, hedesperately wanted to ease her emotions. He couldn’t help but feel his heart ache at her anxiousexpression whenever he laid his eyes on her.
