He appeared quite distressed, his clothes stained with sweat and sand.

Everyone paused and turned toward Atticus.

Lydia, taken aback, moved to stand behind Brayden and whispered, "Isn't he the one who was dealing the cards for you? Watch out, Hannah!" "It's alright.

" Hannah gestured to him reassuringly.

"Cover here.

Is_ there something else you need to tell us?" "Well..." Atticus seemed uncomfortable, hesitating as he noticed someone else was with them.

He fumbled for the right words.

Seeing his struggle, Hannah reassured him.

"These are all trusted friends.

You can speak freely.

" "Okay..." Atticus licked his lips, feeling a wave of embarrassment.

"Hmm... I just wanted to say... the plan for island auctioning fell through.

I can't hold on to this island any longer.

After such a scandal, I doubt anyone would dare buy it.

" He glanced at Bryson, then at Hannah, hesitating.

"I'm wondering if Miss Moore and Mr.

Mitchell are still interested?" Before anyone could respond, Maloney cut in sharply, "After such a huge incident, who would dare? Are you trying to play the sympathy card to unload this island at a bargain price?" Atticus's face drained of color.

Though disturbed by Maloney's accuracy, he managed a sly smile.

" Suddenly, Hannah's lips curved into a smile as she turned to Lydia.

"Lydia, it seems this trip wasn't a waste after all.

Lydia blinked, puzzled by Hannah's remark.

"Do you still want to buy the island?" Hannah asked her.

Atticus looked expectantly at Lydia, waiting for her to respond.

It took a moment, but Lydia finally e snapped back to reality, pondering briefly before nodding in agreement. The island's drawbacks didn't deter her.

She had plans to develop it, envisioning a project that wouldm commence a few years do down the line when Palmetan's tourism industry matured and property values rose.

By then, any negative news about the island would have faded from m memory rendering it insignificant to her plans. Moreover, acquiring the island at a discounted rate seemed an excellent opportunity.
