My Four Miraculous Treasures

Chapter 379

Everyone loved this amazing little girl.

Willow listened closely to the hubbub of conversation in the background. It sounded as though the audience had only the highest praise for her daughter. Her heart swelled with pride and affection.

That was her daughter, everyone! She got both her looks and her brains from her mother!

Willow had been thinking about nothing else besides her children this whole time. It felt so good now, to be able to see her daughter, who was now on television.

A tall, handsome figure glided stealthily over to her side, but Willow didn't even notice him entering the room, until a sudden chill washed over her. Thinking that it might just be the weather or something, she sat up straighter, and hugged herself for warmth.

This shift in her posture allowed her to finally catch sight of the tall and dashing intruder, out of the corner of her eye. No one could fail to notice such an overwhelming presence.

The forbidding pressure caused her whole body to tense up, and lean slightly away from him. She turned to peer at Jasper Hughes, who had suddenly appeared beside her.

It was difficult to look him in the eye, all things considered. "Ah, y-you're back," she said, by way of greeting. Remembering about all those priceless antiques she'd destroyed, terror reached up and seized her by the heart again.
