Chapter 2024 After all, the underground gang in Ora was only a bunch of showers. They gained control over the
masses by using guns, violence, and huge benefits. Although many people joined them, they were far less reliable
than the Southerns. The people who worked under the Southerns were tough, hot–blooded men. They valued
justice above everything, and even if they violated one of the rules, they would be expelled.
This was also the reason Strix wanted to work with the Southerns.
A merchant ship was traveling on the boundless sea. When the man entered the cabin with his dinner, Nollace was
sitting on the edge of the bed, changing his bandages. The air was filled with the smell of medicine and blood.
“You‘re awake, sir.” The man put the dinner on the desk next to the bed and sat at the side respectfully. “You‘ve
been unconscious for several days due to a high fever. Are you feeling better now?” 1
While Nollace was bandaging his injured arm, he lifted his eyes and looked at the man. “You people are the ones

“It‘s our young master who saved you, sir.” He put on his shirt and narrowed his eyes. “Who is your young master?”
The man replied with a smile, “He‘s the descendant of the Southerns of the East Islands.”
Nollace was stunned.
The man bowed down and continued. “I‘ll be leaving your dinner here. If you need anything else, you can press the
service bell. Please enjoy your dinner.” He retreated from the room and closed the door. After that, he walked
toward the main cabin bedroom.
The main cabin bedroom was spacious and was decorated in the same way as an upscale hotel. A young man in a
suit was sitting on the couch. He had an androgynous appearance. He picked up the cup and asked, “Is he awake?”
Even though he pitched his voice low, it did not sound as deep as a man‘s. The man bowed in reverence and
replied, “Yes. He‘s already awake.”
The young man took a sip from the cup of tea and said, “He‘s still alive despite being so badly injured and floating in
the sea. It seems like God doesn‘t want him to die.”
“Why do you want to save him, Sir?”
The person on patrol that night had noticed a man floating on the sea. He was lying on driftwood and was covered
in blood. It was this young man who had asked them to save him.
Fortunately, there was someone who had some medical knowledge and a medical kit on board, so they gave him a
tetanus shot and cleaned and dressed his wounds.
However, Nollace had been unconscious due to a high fever. The young man put down the cup and shrugged.
“Well, my father taught me that we should lend a hand to those in trouble. This man is seriously injured, so I‘m sure
he must‘ve run into an accident or something. Since he made it through this, it means it isn‘t the time for him to die
yet. Besides, he might be of help to us in the future.” The man smiled. “You‘re right, Sir.” The young man rose to his
feet and waved his hand. “Alright. How long until we reach the East Islands?”

The man replied, “We‘ll be arriving at the East Islands tomorrow morning.”
The young man placed his hand on his forehead and said, “I‘m tired, so I‘m going to take a nap. You‘re dismissed.”
At Bassburgh, at the Goldmann mansion…
Maisie brought Daisie home. When they were having dinner, Nolan asked the butler to get Daisie, but Maisie
stopped him. “I‘m sure she doesn‘t have an appetite now. She‘ll eat when she‘s hungry.”
Nolan frowned. “Is it because of Nollace?” She picked up a piece of meat with her fork and said calmly, “Yeah.
Nollace has gone missing, and no one knows if he is dead or alive. I‘m sure Daisie doesn‘t have any appetite now.”
She was already relieved that Daisie did not throw a tantrum or try to kill herself due to her sadness.
Nolan massaged his nose and said, “If he‘s still missing and nobody knows if he‘s still alive or dead, it means there‘s
still hope.” Maisie chuckled. “How rare. I thought you‘d want to find another husband for Daisie.” Nolan laughed
helplessly. “Of course, I‘m not going to do that. I‘m not someone who would take advantage of other people.”
