Natalie exhaled before she slowly retracted her hand. Still, the bee remained on her hand instead of flying away.
Soon, the bee was less than twenty centimeters away from her.
On a closer look, she made out that the bee's legs were actually mechanical!
In other words, the bee was indeed some kind of camera or the like.
Out of the blue, she glimpsed something. It turned out that a tiny earpiece was attached to the bee's rump.
Indeed, it was an earpiece. The earpiece was minuscule, round, and invisible.
That time, Natalie knew without a shadow of a doubt that the bee had nothing to do with Sean. Instead, it belonged
to Shane.
At that thought, she grew so emotional that her hands trembled. She hastily untied the earpiece attached to the
bee's rump.
After removing it, she studied it for a while before swiftly placing it into her ear.
As soon as she did that, a voice drifted out of the earpiece. “Can you hear me, madam?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt's Silas! This is Silas' voice!
“Yes!” Natalie's eyes turned red-rimmed as she stared at the bee.
Silas, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. “Great! I was afraid that the distance would affect the signal.”
“I can hear you loud and clear. But how did you come up with the idea of mounting a camera onto a mechanical
bee and flying it over to me? If I hadn't caught sight of the red light, I would've thought that it was a real bee. I was
scared out of my wits!” Natalie exclaimed, patting herself on the chest.
At that, Silas replied in embarrassment, “I'm sorry, madam. We had no choice either. We couldn't use a butterfly
since it's a bit too big and would easily attract Sean's attention. Therefore, a bee is just perfect. This bee is from the
military. The military often uses such simulated spy cameras when they execute missions in the jungle. We bought a
few from the Nalanica military, planning to use them to search for you. Unexpectedly, we truly found you!”
“That's true. I didn't expect you to fly a bee-mounted camera over,” Natalie echoed with a smile.
“Actually, we didn't just fly one out but three. The other two had gone to scout the island. We're leaving this with
you so that you can contact us anytime, madam,” Silas explained.
In response, Natalie nodded. “Okay. Where's Shane?”
“Mr. Shane is on the deck, looking at the island you're on with binoculars.”
“Looking at the island with binoculars? So, you're not that far from me?” Natalie's eyes promptly lit up.
Silas nodded in affirmation. “Yes, that's right. You can now gaze out at the horizon, and you can probably see
something, madam.”
“Okay. Let me take a look!” Natalie released her hold on the bee, upon which it flew up at once.
Meanwhile, she herself gripped the railing and cast her gaze out at the horizon in the distance. Sure enough, the
moment she did so, she spotted something that wasn't there previously—a lightning rod.
It was the lightning rod of a cruise ship. That was to say, it was the lightning rod of Shane's cruise ship.
“I see it! I see a lightning rod!” Natalie was so thrilled that she was on the verge of tears.
A smile bloomed on Silas' face. “Yup. Besides, Mr. Shane has now sighted you, madam,” he remarked while
standing behind Shane.
As Shane stared into the distance through the binoculars in his hand, his thin lips curved upward slightly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSilas knew that he must be smiling because he had made out Natalie.
On the other end of the phone, Natalie was over the moon upon hearing that Shane had spotted her. She hurriedly
waved in the direction of the lightning rod.
Although she couldn't see him, she was still ecstatic that he could see her.
Shane evidently saw her waving at him, for the curve of his thin lips deepened.
In the next instant, he put the binoculars down and held his hand out to Silas.
Comprehending his meaning, Silas handed the tablet to him.
Gazing at Natalie's image on the tablet, Shane murmured, “It's me.”
“I know.” Natalie choked.
Shane's expression grew tender, and he reassured, “Don't cry. I'll be there to pick you up very soon.”
“Okay. I trust you.” Natalie nodded.
She didn't ask him for an exact time, for all she needed to do was to trust him.
Shane reached out and wiped Natalie's tears on the tablet.
Despite Natalie having no idea about it and his inability to wipe her tears for real, he still did it.
“Sean just returned to the island a while ago,” Shane commented.
