Zephyr frowned while Rowan looked shocked.
“Can this message be traced back?” asked Rowan.
Zephyr answered in a low voice, “I think so, but I haven’t figured the manual out yet and don’t know how to operate
it.”
Rowan took the manual over and went through it line by line.
Zephyr said after a moment of silence, “Mr. Irwin, I think this cry for help isn’t for us but for Josiah.”
“Mr. Bayer?” Rowan arched a brow. “Did other yachts run into danger too?”
“Perhaps…”
Zephyr squinted. There was a thought flashing in his mind. Josiah had once told him that he liked a girl, and then

‘Could it be that… it is not that the girl does not want to date him but that she cannot?’
Zephyr felt his heart squeeze. His gaze turned serious as he stared at the [Save me!] message.
…
Although the radio and internet connection was unstable, Zephyr and Rowan’s constant messages were finally
responded to.
Two days later, Josiah and Robert arrived on the island with a rescue team and successfully saved all three of them.
On the way back, Cordelia stood at the bow watching the island get farther away from her until it turned into a
small black dot above the sea and vanished from her sight.
She stared in that direction thoughtfully.
“What are you thinking about?” A jacket was suddenly draped on her shoulders.
She looked back and met the man’s tender gaze.
“The wind’s strong here.” Zephyr wrapped her up snugly and carefully. “Don’t catch a cold standing where it
blows.”
Cordelia smiled at him and cuddled closer to him.
“Guess what I’m thinking.”
“I guess…” Zephyr smiled. “That you’re reluctant to leave the island.”
“How did you know?”
“What thought could you keep from me?”
Cordelia looked up at him with a pout.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis man was scary. She was like a sheet of white paper before him—he could see through everything about her.
It was true. She was eager to leave when she was on the island, but now that she actually left, she felt longing.
They had spent the days on the island depending on each other to survive. They shared happiness and sorrow and
survived the disaster. It was a blessing from the heavens.
Cordelia was starting to miss the sweet spring water, the fresh fish soup, the forest, and the beach on the island.
She also missed sunbathing leisurely on the deck. There was also when she would walk barefooted by the beach
and pick up seashells hand in hand with Zephyr.
The time on the island was slow, so peaceful that she had forgotten that she had ended up there due to a mishap.
“It’s okay. We know about the island’s existence now. We can come back anytime if you like it there.”
Zephyr pressed a kiss against her hair and took her back into the cabin with a smile. He then asked Robert over and
told him with a low tone, “Get the coordinates of that island and find out all its relevant information.”
Robert was stunned. “Sir, what are you going to do?”
“Draft a development proposal.”
“Huh?”
