“Calm down,” said Sirius, attempting to reassure Jasper. “Don’t act impulsively.” “If Calvin dares to harm her, I'll
make sure he dies a painful death.” Jasper clenched his fists tightly.
Jasper got out of the car, and three other cars screeched to a halt next to him. Jared quickly stepped out of his
car and shouted at Calvin, “Release my sister!”
“Oh! Everyone's here.” Calvin suddenly pulled out a gun and pointed it at Willow's forehead before addressing
the row of people in front of him. “Stay where you are, or I'll kill her right now.
Willow looked at the people who had cto rescue her, her eyes instantly welling up with tears. She never
expected the maid, who had taken care of her for twenty years, would kidnap her in such a manner.
“Just leave, Jared! Don’t bother saving me,” Willow shouted at them. Even with a gun pointed at her head, she
felt no fear. She was even more worried about the people standing in front of her. Her loved ones were all

“Willy!” Jasper exclaimed involuntarily. His eyes were filled with pain and anxiety. “Everyone except Jasper will
have to back off to the main road over there, or | won't even give you a chance to negotiate,” Calvin shouted
while pointing at Jared. “Especially you, Mr. Presgrave. If you don’t want to die with your sister, leave.”
“Let my sister go, and you can nyour conditions,” Jared said in a deep voice. How could he leave right now?
“I have a personal grudge with Jasper. You don’t need to get involved. Scram!” After he finished speaking, Calvin
suddenly fired a shot into the air. The gunshot startled Willow, and she let out a sharp scream while covering her
ears with one hand.
“Willy!”
“Willow!”
Both men called out in concern at the stime. However, Calvin bellowed, “I won't say it again. I'll count to
ten, and if all of you don’t disappear, you won't get a chance to negotiate!”
Jasper turned to look at Jared while gritting his teeth and said, “No matter what the cost, | will save Willy. “I can’t
let you take the risk alone,” Jared said. If they left, Jasper would be tortured to death by Calvin.
“Truston this,” Jasper said to Jared. “Ten, nine, eight...” Calvin had already started counting. Jared didn’t dare
provoke this killer. At this point, he could only trust Jasper. He waved his hand, and his subordinates all returned
to their cars, Sirius included. They then turned the car around and left. Calvin suddenly grabbed Willow by the
throat and said to Jasper, “Jasper, your woman is really beautiful!”
Jasper clenched his fists as he watched Calvin choke Willow roughly, almost breaking his skin. “Let her go, you

Calvin's face darkened. “Do you think you're worthy of competing with me?”
Calvin had always been proud and arrogant, and he couldn't tolerate anyone being stronger than him, especially
Jasper. Because of him, Calvin had been cast aside by their previous organization like trash. He harbored deep
resentment and was determined to prove that he was undoubtedly stronger than Jasper.
“I challenge you to a fight. What kind of man uses a woman as leverage?” Jasper coldly snorted, his eyes filled
with disdain. Calvin could have easily dealt with Jasper using his gun, but he wanted to prove himself.
He wanted to prove that he was stronger than Jasper, even though he could see that Jasper was trying to
provoke him.
“I am the strongest one here, and | will make you understand how powerful | am,” Calvin said. He then threw the
gun into a nearby car and took out a small bomb before placing it on the car’s hood. Then, he set a timer.
“If you can’t defeatwithin ten minutes, you'll watch your woman explode into pieces!”
