Willow reached out and brushed her hand past. her lips. That wasn't just a touch,
was it? “Do you still need proof?” Jasper’s raspy voice sounded.
It was only then that she was pulled back from her thoughts. The fact that he had
kissed her was proof that he did not dislike her, and this realization caused her
face to flush red as she bit her lips in embarrassment. However, she felt that the
kiss had ended too quickly, so much so that she barely had the time to enjoy it.
“Is it supposed to be that quick?” she mumbled, clutching her face. Faced with
her words, the man was rendered speechless while she awkwardly whipped her
head away. Just then, the light from the torch vanished out of the blue, plunging
them into complete darkness. “Oh no! Don’t tell me the torch is out of batteries!”
she yelped, pouncing into Jasper’s arms.
“They probably forgot to charge it." He wrapped her in his embrace cooperatively
as she buried herself in his arms, terrified to be trapped in an ancient tomb
without any light. Although Willow was clinging onto him, she continued to burrow
herself into his embrace. as if trying to mold their bodies into one.
“Don't be scared. It's safe here.” Jasper lowered his head to look at her. At the
same time, Willow raised her head, and the distance between their faces
minimized.
The two froze for a few seconds, and she could feel his lips at the corner of hers.
However, as if struck by lightning, they quickly turned their heads away from
each other. “Jasper, I have something to ask you.” Willow's voice rang sweetly.
“What is it?"
“Have you kissed other girls before?” she asked, extremely curious.
“You're the first.” Her melodious and smug laugh gently broke the silence.
“Really? You aren't pulling my leg, are you?”
“I never lie.” “All right! I believe you, but I have something to tell you. You just
stole my first kiss. However, since it was your first time too, I won't hold you to it.”
Just then, a loud call was heard nearby. “Miss Presgrave, where are you?”
“Mr. Wyatt, Miss Presgrave, where are you?” Willow was overjoyed at the sound
of the voices. “They found us!” Then, she rose to her feet and began to yell
toward the opening. “We're here! Come and save us!”
As expected, she soon heard the voice reply, “Did you hear that? It's Miss
Presgrave’s voice. Hurry, they're right up ahead!” Soon after, they discovered the
entrance to the cave, basked in the moonlight, and they asked probingly, “Miss
Presgrave, are you down there?” “Yes, we fell. Be careful, though! The ground in
this area is slippery. Don't fall in.”
“All right. We'll call the captain and the others over.” Not long later, Winston
returned with the bodyguards, and Johanna called out urgently from above, “Miss
Presgrave, are you hurt?”
“Johanna, I'm fine. I'm not hurt.” The bodyguards made quick work of the ropes,
and once they were secured, Willow was hoisted out of the cave, immediately
followed by Jasper. “There's an ancient tomb below. Let's go back and get some
rest, and we can explore tomorrow morning,” she suggested.
