Chapter 1401
With some people leaving, Zenobia’s entourage has shrunk by more than half in no time.
Zenobia was eyeing Jaime intently. Jaime was busy directing people to move supplies and find a spot to pitch tents.
He turned and saw Zenobia staring at him.
Jaime was taken aback. Then he suddenly clutched his chest in front of everyone and looked at Zenobia warily,
“What are you looking at me like that for? I gotta tell you, I’m an old-school, moral kind of guy. I gotta stay pure for
my future wife! Don’t get any funny ideas!”
Zenobia was taken aback.
Jaime went on, “My parents always told me to stay loyal and faithful. You’re already engaged, even if your guy isn’t
as handsome, rich or smart as me, you can’t have any ideas on me!”

some even tried to hold back their laughter.
“You’re talking nonsense! My fiancé is the most handsome man in the world. You can’t even hold a candle to him,
not even his toe!!”
“Well, good!” Jaime was still clutching his chest, looking very alert.
At this point, a polite-looking girl in the crowd, seeing that they were about to pitch tents, kindly suggested, “If
you’re volunteers, the indigenous people on the island will provide you with accommodation for free. You don’t
need to camp outside.
On hearing this, Zenobia promptly stuck up her chin, indicating a refusal to welcome Jaime and his crew.
Even if there was enough accommodation, she was not willing to welcome these annoying people, and she was not
as naive as these volunteers.
She didn’t believe this man was really a volunteer here to protect the corals.
They were the henchmen of that CEO’s wife!
She would never let them in her home!
Her mother warned her not to let these people find Alan!
However, Jaime once again took away Zenobia’s right to speak, “Stay with the locals? That’s not gonna work. I’ve
said that there’s a conflict between locals and businessmen. We’re here to protect the coral. We can’t have such a
relationship with either party. So, we’re gonna pitch our tents on the beach, it’s close to the sea and the dock. We
can patrol regularly and watch out for those trying to get close to the sea!”
Jaime spoke righteously, and the volunteers who had been convinced by Jaime looked at each other and felt that
Jaime had a point.
It wasn’t really cool to stay at someone else’s house.

“I’m not sure if we have extras right now. Here’s what we’ll do, those who want to join us can stay for now, and
once the tents are up, we’ll do a head count. If we’re short, boys can bunk with boys and girls with girls, how’s
that?” Jaime suggested tactfully.
This idea was immediately agreed upon by everyone.
Zenobia was perplexed.
Looking at the few people around her, she left in a huff.
She thought she would get a lot of attention tonight at the dock, but she didn’t expect to be upstaged!
Those people were all internet celebrities.
They didn’t come here to protect the corals, they were just chasing popularity.
Internet celebrities earn good money and live lavish lifestyles, so even staying in local inns, they felt the
environment was subpar.
Now they are expecting them to camp out?
No way!
