Olivia looked at her watch.
Logan would usually bring her sfruits at this hour.
Where was he? She could see raindrops falling on the window under the dim yellow lights.
It was raining.
Olivia hated the rain.
As she lied in bed, she had no desire to sleep at all.
So she put on sheadphones and tried to space out.
After a while, she abruptly opened her eyes when the ship started to violently tremble.
Something was wrong! Was it pirates? Olivia quickly took off her headphones.
She started to hear the chaos happening outside.
Something was very wrong.
Olivia was a cautious person.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince she didn't know what was going on, she didn't dare to run around aimlessly.
So she stayed put and waited for Logan to cto her.
But Logan didn't crushing in like she thought he would.
Unable to suppress the anxiety anymore, Olivia decided to get out of her room.
Her attention wasn't drawn to the ship's burning parts.
Instead, a child's voice attracted her gaze.
"Help!" It was the voice of a very young child.
Where did he cfrom? Olivia's maternal instincts took over.
She didn't care whose child it was, nor did she care if it was a trap.
She started to run toward the voice.
When she turned the corner, she saw a little boy holding onto a tiny hand.
Upon closer inspection, she saw a little girl dangling outside the railing.
Olivia was horrified.
She started to run toward the children with reckless disregard for her own health.
At that moment, Zack had already exhausted all his strength, but he was still unable to pull Alicia to safety.
He could only watch with tears in his eyes as Alicia's hand slowly slipped out of his grasp.
"Zack!" "N-no! w As Alicia was about to fall, ahand suddenly appeared and grabbed her, stopping her from falling into the ocean.
Zack was stunned as he looked at the woman in pajamas who had just appeared next to him.
Half her body was outside the railing.
She was very slender, especially the hand holding on to Alicia.
It was almost just skin and bones.
Olivia sighed in relief.
She made it in time.
Alicia's head was lowered as she swayed in the air like she was about to fall.
Tears were rolling down her face.
Olivia comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI'll pull you up immediately." Alicia—who thought she was a goner—raised her head to look at the woman pulling her up.
As their eyes met, both of them were dumbstruck.
Alicia looked at Olivia, who was holding her hand.
Her face looked exactly like the mother in the photos that Jack had shown them before.
Olivia looked more slim and frail, but the facial features and the look in her eyes were exactly like her mother's.
For a moment, Alicia thought she was dreaming.
Was she dead? Is that why she was seeing her mother? Olivia was also stunned by Alicia's facial features.
She looked too much like Ethan, as if they were made from the smold.
She couldn't help but think that her own children would be Alicia's age if they were still alive.
Despite the shock, Olivia understood that the most important thing was to get Alicia to safety first.
She was holding Alicia with her left arm, which had been hurt before.
Even though it recovered, her hand could never go back to normal.
Olivia couldn't muster enough strength.
As she tried to reach her right hand down to pull Alicia up, the pirates fired another round at the ship.
The ship shook again.
In the explosion, Olivia couldn't hold on to Alicia's hand and Alicia started to fall toward the ocean.
Before she fell, Olivia heard her call out, "Mom!" That single word stunned Olivia completely.
