Chapter 1411
Zenobia came running, leaving Osborn somewhat helpless.
He stopped: “Zenobia, I’ve told you, she won’t…”
“Osborn, Alan suddenly coughed up blood and fainted!” Zenobia yelled, ignoring the nearby presence of Rosalynn
and her
group.
Osborn was stunned, his face turning serious. “He was fine just a moment ago, why would he suddenly cough up
blood?”
“I don’t know, you better go check it out!”
“Someone got hurt? I brought a medical team, need any help?” Rosalynn’s voice echoed from a distance.

Just as she was about to accept the offer, Osborn declined it.
“Don’t worry about it. Alan’s been under the weather, I got this!” With that, he took off, dragging Zenobia along
without even a goodbye.
Once they were out of Rosalynn’s earshot, he lowered his voice: “Have you lost your mind? Didn’t I tell you not to
let them see Alan?”
“But Alan is…” Zenobia was scared to death at the sight of the blood on the ground.
“He’s been worse off before, and I managed to patch him up. Nothing is gonna happen to him. Anyway, remember
my words, if you don’t want to lose Alan, listen to me!” Osborn’s tone was unusually serious and domineering.
The words “losing Alan’ made Zenobia immediately compliant.
Rosalynn stood still, watching the frantic siblings..
“Weren’t they supposed to be educated?” She was puzzled, “They seem a bit reluctant to accept treatment?”
“Alan? They’re not talking about that troublemaker, are they?” Felix asked with a low voice, “Turns out he’s a sick
man?”
“Don’t know, he’s quite mysterious. Heard he’s a good friend of Osborn from school, but not many people have
seen him.” Sean said, “Anyway, we shouldn’t take everything these islanders said seriously. They’re crafty, don’t
expect them to tell you
the truth.”
“Indeed, not much to go on. For all we know, these natives might be worshipping him like a god, they won’t reveal
his identity that easily. Felix complained.
He was really pissed off! Rosalynn glanced back towards the inn.
“When’s the marine biologist we hired arriving?” Rosalynn asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“He’ll be here by tomorrow afternoon. Should arrive around the same time as the expert volunteer.” Sean replied.
Rosalynn nodded and headed back.
Osborn rushed into Alan’s room, the sight of blood and his frantic mother greeting him.
‘Osborn… what do we do?” Viola asked as soon as she saw him.
Osborn didn’t respond. He went over to Alan, lifted his eyelid to have a look.
Osborn and Zenobia’s father used to be a fairly well-known doctor before they ended up on this island, so Osborn
had learnt
a lot from him.
“He’s always had a chest issue, the coughing blood is probably due to him getting overly angry.” Osborn looked at
the man lying unconscious on the bed, then at the blood on the floor.
The blood was near the window, and a pair of binoculars was still clutched in his hand.
Could it be…
Osborn stood up, walked over to the window, and looked out. The window directly overlooked the distant beach.
