“Lead the way!” Elijah said gruffly.
Elias was concerned for him, however. “But sir, the weather might turn against us any
minute, and you’re
already…”
“Don’t worry about me, I’m fine!”
“Leave this to Elias and me, Mr. Forrest!” Alyssa cried. “I’ve volunteered as a medic in a
warzone before. If
this hiker is in any danger, I can come to their aid immediately!”

Sean hadn’t noticed his arrival outside the park.

continue donating annually to the park on my behalf.”
Elijah didn’t expect this response. He quickly smacked Jasper’s chest, saying, “Don’t talk

helping hikers and
donating to the park every year.”
Jasper’s curiosity increased upon hearing that. “If they are important to you and share the

“Too bad. Alice has joined the rest of the patrol!”
When “Alice” was mentioned, Jasper was initially puzzled before the realization struck him.
Jasper’s heart skipped violently as a surge of electricity swept through his being, sending
him into a
peculiar state of numbness and shock.
Seconds later, he held Elijah’s arm and asked, “Is her last name White?”
“Oh? Do you know her?” Elijah asked, surprised. “Yes, her family name is White. Alice
