It was too hard for a child like Alicia to understand the complicated emotions of an adult. Her eyes were filled with
confusion.
Ethan was still very emotional. "Dear child, you must have endured a lot of hardships, right?" he asked.
Hardship?
Alicia didn't know what that was. All she knew was that she was happy as long as she was with her brother and
father.
"Are you hungry?" Ethan asked as he quickly ordered some people to bring over some food.
Alicia's eyes lit up as she looked at the food before her. However, her eyes dimmed as she was about to eat.
"Zack," she said.
Ethan patted her head. "Don't worry. I've sent people to look for your brother. You'll be able to see him soon. For
now, eat. Your brother will also get his share when we find him."
Ethan could tell Alicia was starving, but she didn't eat in a hurry. It was like she was born to be elegant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlicia may have looked like him, but her actions carried her mother's elegance.
The more Ethan looked at Alicia, the more he liked her.
It was fine if she couldn't address him as her father for the time being. He was content as long as she was alive and
he could stay by her side.
After eating for a while, Alicia noticed the man with her wasn't eating.
Being the good girl she was, Alicia pushed some food before Ethan and said, "Here, mister. Eat."
It was a simple gesture, but it brought Ethan to tears.
He hugged her again. "Good girl."
Alicia thought he was being weird, but she didn't dislike him at all. She looked at his face carefully and felt he was
very handsome.
Not only that, but he was very patient too. He would pick out all the bones in the fish and feed it to her.
He also told her stories and reassured her that her brother would be with her soon. He even gave her some candy.
Alicia liked this man a lot.
It was dawn.
The sea had gradually calmed down. The rain stopped too, and the sky cleared.
Olivia's fever was on and off. Sometimes it would get better. Other times, she would be burning up. This went on for
several days.
When the ship finally docked at an island, Olivia finally regained consciousness after coming out of the terrible
conditions on the ship.
She opened her eyes to the piercing sunlight outside the window.
She covered her eyes with her hand.
She had just woken up. In the past few days, she had been surviving on IV drips.
Olivia felt dazed, and her head was heavy.
Then, a man's voice said, "Ms. Fordham, how are you feeling?"
Olivia blinked a few times before she came to her senses.
"I ..." She got up slowly while holding her head.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEthan quickly adjusted her pillows to help her sit up properly.
"We're on an island right now. A few days ago, you got a fever after you got out of the ocean. It lasted for a few
days. How are you feeling now?"
"My head hurts, and I'm thirsty," Olivia said hoarsely.
As soon as she said that, Ethan held a glass of water beside her lips. "Drink this."
Olivia didn't have the chance to ask about her children. Rather, she instinctively started gulping down the water.
She was drinking too quickly and some of the water dripped from the corner of her lips.
"Slow down. Don't drink too fast." Ethan reached out and wiped the water from the corner of her lips.
The moment his fingers touched her skin, Olivia looked at him cautiously.
Ethan suddenly realized what his current identity was.
Then, he nonchalantly changed the subject. "You just woke up, so you can only eat liquid foods for the time being.
There's no need to rush. I've already prepared some."
Olivia felt more relaxed after she drank the water.
"My children, where are they?" she asked.
Ethan's expression turned grave. "Alicia is here, but someone took Zack. We don't know where he is yet
