“Tommy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?” Willow’s irritation was palpable, for her team members had been roused from their slumber, the tranquility shattered by the man’s unexpected presence.

At her words, Tommy immediately looked somewhat aggrieved. “I came because I was worried about you. Look, I brought a boatload of supplies for you. I’ve got whatever you need. I even brought a chef and bodyguards to protect you.”

She gazed at him in stunned silence, her words caught in her throat. “I don’t need them, thank you. Now please leave and don’t interfere with my work.”

“I came all this way. How can you just ask me to leave so easily? I promise not to affect your work. Just treat me as an invisible person or even air.” Then, he walked past Jasper and looked at Willow pleadingly. “Willow, please don’t chase me away. You have no idea how hard it was for me to catch up to you.”

As she pondered the situation, she realized that chasing him away would only be futile and a wasted effort. Ultimately, she reluctantly allowed him to stay because he brought the essential supplies they desperately needed. “Alright, since you’re here, you can stay,” she conceded. What’s more, he arrived with a contingent of formidable bodyguards. Should we encounter any pirate ships, their presence alone would be enough to strike fear into those pirates.

At this moment, Jasper looked at Willow with an indescribable gaze while Tommy was overjoyed. “I knew you wouldn’t chase me away.”

She then turned to Winston and said, “Gather everyone and ask them to return to rest. There’s no need to panic.”
