At that moment, Natalie finally understood the feeling embodied by the statement on the internet that went along

the lines of “My white knight will come to my rescue on horseback.”

While Shane didn't come on horseback, he was piloting a titanic cruise ship to rescue her and bring her home.

In the living room downstairs, Jacqueline was momentarily taken aback when she heard the horn of a cruise ship.

Hmm? What's happening here? Why is there the sound of a cruise ship? Is Sean back? Or is a cruise ship sailing

past this area?

Her eyes narrowed a fraction, and the apprehension within her mounted. Her heartbeat accelerated significantly to

the point that she could even hear it pounding against her ribcage.

No, it's probably not Sean. It's most likely a cruise ship sailing past by coincidence. After all, this area isn't all that far

from international waters. It's only about a hundred nautical miles, and when converted, three hundred over

kilometers. There's a gigantic casino with worldwide acclaim on international waters, so many rich people go there

to have fun and enjoy themselves. Therefore, it's not entirely impossible that they're taking this route to head

there.

But just then, the housekeeper, Marina, dashed out of the kitchen. With her eyes fixated on Jacqueline, she

shrieked, “It's bad, Miss! A cruise ship is heading right for the island!”

“What? Heading right for the island without detouring?” Jacqueline's expression changed drastically.

“Yes.” The housekeeper nodded fervently.

When Jacqueline heard that, her hands curled into fists. “Could it be that the cruise ship had malfunctioned and

couldn't change directions, thus heading straight for us?”

“I don't know, but it's new, and its speed is uniform. Hence, it doesn't look as though it had suffered a mishap,” the

housekeeper replied.

Jacqueline bit her lip. “Then, it's coming for us. Let me see who exactly it is who's trespassing on someone else's

private island!”

Having said that, she stormed out of the villa in a fit of pique.

As soon as she walked out, she saw that a cruise ship had come to a stop on the sea approximately three hundred

meters away.

While she watched, three speedboats drove out from the cruise ship's equipment compartment. On the heels of

that, men in black climbed down from the cruise ship, one after another. They boarded two of the speedboats and

streaked toward the island.

Not only were they all dressed exactly the same, but they were also tall and burly, their auras forbidding. At a single

glance, one could tell that they were battle-hardened bodyguards.

At the sight of those bodyguards, Jacqueline's heart jolted, and her face paled.

What's this? Why are there so many bodyguards? Anyhow, that's not the main issue here. The most important thing

is the three speedboats!

The instant she caught sight of the two words on the three speedboats, she finally panicked. A buzzing filled her

mind, and it was as though a bolt of thunder struck her, making her mind go blank.

How could it be Shane? He actually found this place? How did he manage to do so?

All of a sudden, she recalled Natalie's remark for her to watch out before the latter went upstairs. At long last, she

understood the meaning behind that warning.

It's because she has long since known that he's coming! That was why she told me to watch out and sneaked back

upstairs herself, afraid that I'd take her hostage and affect his rescue effort! Argh! Damn it! What a b*tch!

Fury blazed within her, and her entire face contorted. The urge to rip Natalie into a thousand pieces gripped her.

Unfortunately, she couldn't do anything despite harboring such a thought. Natalie had already locked herself in her

room and gone into hiding ages ago.

“Miss, quick, let's go!” Although the housekeeper had never seen Shane, she had seen his picture before. Thus, she

naturally realized the gravity of the matter when she glimpsed the man then and hurriedly reminded Jacqueline to

flee.

In response, Jacqueline sneered derisively.

Go? Where can I go? The only means of transportation is Sean's helicopter. There's nothing else other than that. Oh

yes, there's a kayak in the villa's warehouse. But what use is that? Before we can even get a hundred meters away,

the speedboats will have caught up to us! In other words, we're backed into a corner now.

She shook all over, and resentment brewed within her.

Never had she expected to be caught by Shane then after having been on the run for so many months and

escaping him so many times.
