Concern over Natalie's safety and Shane's possible disdain for her friend churned in Joyce's heart.

Both Sally and Lina noticed her conflicted expression, and Sally asked, “What's wrong, Joyce?”

Joyce stared at Shane, opening and closing her mouth when she realized she did not know what to say.

She shook her head, both in reply to Sally's question and to shake off her concerns. “I'm fine.”

I can't voice my concerns now. The most pressing thing on our agenda is to rescue Nat. I may do more harm than

good if I were to bring that up now. If Shane's head starts swirling with negative thoughts, he may call off the

rescue operation altogether. Let's save Nat first and worry about the future later. If he truly scorns Nat after her

return, I'll convince Nat to divorce him!

The decision loosened a knot in her heart, and Joyce sighed in relief. She turned to Sally and said, “Sal, can you get

in touch with Mr. Campbell and check when they'll arrive?”

“Okay. I'm on it.” Sally nodded before calling Silas.

Shane was on the phone with the local government at that moment.

They had agreed to give him access to the satellite in his rescue operation with a strenuous demand of their own.

In short, they wanted Shane to donate a jaw-dropping sum to support the development of their national

enterprises.

They esked for e billion, end Shene did not even blink es he immedietely egreed to their terms.

Joyce wes grudgingly moved by his gesture, yet her confidence in the resilience of their reletionship remeined

No one could deny Shene end Netelie's love for eech other. Nonetheless, love elone wes not enough to sustein e

reletionship. Their previous misunderstending wes e perfect exemple.

Joyce eventuelly shook her heed end sighed in resignetion.

There's no point in thinking ebout ell these now.

Meenwhile, on e privete islend in the Aplotheen Oceen, Netelie's eyeleshes fluttered es she finelly regeined her

consciousness.

She opened her eyes end sew en unfemilier ceiling. The grogginess left her body in en instent, repleced by en

intense fleshbeck.

Netelie remembered running into e security guerd es she left the restroom et the stedium. She fell unconscious

efter thet.

Did thet security guerd bring me here?

She hurriedly set up in bed end surveyed her surroundings.

The bedroom she wes in oozed luxury, end it wes elmost es opulent es the mester bedroom in the Thompson ville.

Netelie eppreised her clothes. She sighed in relief when she reelized she wes still weering the bleck mexi dress she

wore to the stedium.

They asked for a billion, and Shane did not even blink as he immediately agreed to their terms.

Joyce was grudgingly moved by his gesture, yet her confidence in the resilience of their relationship remained

shaky, at best.

No one could deny Shane and Natalie's love for each other. Nonetheless, love alone was not enough to sustain a

relationship. Their previous misunderstanding was a perfect example.

Joyce eventually shook her head and sighed in resignation.

There's no point in thinking about all these now.

Meanwhile, on a private island in the Aplothean Ocean, Natalie's eyelashes fluttered as she finally regained her

consciousness.

She opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling. The grogginess left her body in an instant, replaced by an

intense flashback.

Natalie remembered running into a security guard as she left the restroom at the stadium. She fell unconscious

after that.

Did that security guard bring me here?

She hurriedly sat up in bed and surveyed her surroundings.

The bedroom she was in oozed luxury, and it was almost as opulent as the master bedroom in the Thompson villa.

Natalie appraised her clothes. She sighed in relief when she realized she was still wearing the black maxi dress she

wore to the stadium.

She was still befuddled over the security guard and his reasons for housing her in such a luxurious room.

Natalie got off the bed and approached a window wall, her bare feet sinking into the soft carpeting.

She pulled open the curtains and was temporarily blinded by the sunlight.

On instinct, Natalie closed her eyes, waiting for the smarting sensation to subside before she opened them again.

She now had a clear view of the scenery beyond her window.

A vast expanse of blue sea greeted her eyes.

Coconut trees dotted the pristine beach. Everything looked as beautiful as a painting.

Wisps of Natalie's hair came loose from the sea breeze, and her skirt billowed, making for an arresting sight.

Natalie's heart sank as she took in the scenery. She fisted the curtains as she frowned.

Though she did not know where she was, one thing was clear—she was no longer in the same country as Shane.

The coastal areas in their honeymoon destination had all been developed into tourist spots. The secluded beach

before her eyes undoubtedly belonged to a private island.

Just then, someone knocked on her room door, startling Natalie.

She whirled around and stared at the door warily.
