Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1993

At that point, Willow started regretting her actions. I shouldn’t have sent that text. Am I not just humiliating myself? She covered her face, feeling embarrassed.

However, she soon concluded that she must have been lonely, which was why she needed a man to fill her heart. There are countless men on earth, so why should I dwell on Jasper? Also, Dad is surrounded by many excellent men, so there’s no way I can’t find someone my type. That’s right. From tomorrow onward, I’ll get Dad to introduce me to a few of them, or I can ask Jared as well.

Anyway, she had to get Jasper out of her mind and find someone emotionally valuable to her, one who was also passionate about her.

During breakfast early the following morning, Elliot told the family that his friend’s son was coming to attend the banquet. Since the other party was prestigious, he had to send some bodyguards to pick him up.

“Dad, how about I go?” Willow volunteered herself. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“You?” He was taken aback. When did his daughter become so enthusiastic about such things?

“Yes, I’ll go. I just happen to be free, and he’s an important guest, right? So, it’d be more appropriate if I went.”

“Alright, then. Let her go. I think she’s got too much time on her hands,” Anastasia told her husband. Her daughter had been idle at home recently, so it was a good chance for her to interact with others and understand how to better deal with people.

“Sure! You can go, but remember. He’s our guest, so no funny business!” Elliot exhorted his daughter.

“Dad, trust me. I will surely take good care of our guest.” She promised confidently.

“Dad, trust me. I will surely take good care of our guest.” She promised confidently.

“I noticed your eyes seem red. Why did you stay up late last night?” asked Anastasia with furrowed brows.

Willow felt hopeless. If only she had been doing something late last night… But the truth was she could not sleep because of one man! She kept dazing until the early morning before falling asleep.

She had to eliminate the cause of her illness and cure her anxiety. Therefore, she saw no problem in interacting with young men. “The usual… Binge-watching until late at night,” she lied and giggled.

“Oh, you! Seems like you do have a lot of time on your hands,” Anastasia chastised while looking at her daughter affectionately.

Since the guest’s plane was due to land at 10.00AM, Willow left home after finishing her breakfast.

…

At the same time, another group of people was heading for the airport—Aimee and Jasper. That was because the customer Bucky was waiting for was due to arrive on the same flight. When Willow arrived, she entered a cafe she frequented because it was less crowded. Since it specialized in premium coffee and service, fewer tourists would visit here.

She found a seat beside the window as she could see all the customers coming and going from the lobby. It also came with a great view of the majestic and extraordinary architecture of the building.

Looking at her watch, Willow saw that there was still over half an hour before the plane arrived and began thinking about how she would pass the time. At that moment, she heard footsteps coming from outside the cafe. It seemed like more customers were coming in.

There were not many people in the cafe, to begin with, so the sudden addition of two more attracted her attention. When she glanced in that direction, her eyes widened as she stared at the two approaching the entrance in disbelief. You gotta be kidding me. Averna is such a massive city, but why do I keep bumping into him?

The same question also occurred to Jasper, who even suspected Willow had been following him. Otherwise, why would he bump into her at a cafe at the airport in a big city?

Meanwhile, Aimee noticed Willow and subconsciously glanced at Jasper’s expression. The man quickly averted his gaze and deliberately chose a seat furthest away from Willow. In addition, he sat behind a pillar so that he would not have to face her.

When Willow saw his deliberate action to avoid eye contact with her, she felt inexplicably breathless from anger. Did she annoy him so much that he did not even wish to look at her?

She had never received such treatment before, and a strong sense of self-doubt made her look at her attire. After some thought, she realized it had nothing to do with her outfit because that man simply disliked her!
