She had mastered seventeen languages since childhood, but she couldn't make sense of this one. Were there people on this island? What a miracle! After searching for so long, she hadn't found any sign of life-until now.
However, the rescue she imagined didn't seem quite right.
Why were they grabbing her limbs and carrying her like livestock? She was being jostled so much along the way that it felt like her joints were about to dislocate.
A picture she had seen once popped into Seraphina's mind-of a plump sheep being carried into a kitchen.
Maybe she wasn't miserable enough yet.
She swore that if Orion had sent these people, she would thank him properly.
If the Crosses were there, she would tell Sivir how rude and unprofessional they were-no patience.
If they were rescuers from a different source, she'd just have to endure it.

A thousand nautical miles away.
Two helicopters met. Ken had to persuade Justin to cover, thinking that coordinating their efforts would make the rescue mission more successful and swift. Orion was already on the brink of madness and obsession.
If this continued, he might collapse.
Justin approached with a bottle of strong vodka. When Orion lifted his head, it showed that his eyes were bloodshot from days without sleep.
Orion's eyes were somber, showing no reaction to Justin's arrival.
It appeared that saving her was the only thing that mattered in his world right now.
Justin sat down by a crate. He carelessly opened the bottle with his teeth, spitting the cap into the sea. There wasn't a moment when they didn't loathe the ocean.
And yet, they were powerless.
Justin tilted his head back. He took a few swigs of the vodka. As he looked at Orion, his bloodshot eyes 1/3 15:32 Mon, Oct 28 Chapter 227 Finally Realizing What He Has Lost "Is this necessary? What are you trying to prove?" Orion's jaw tightened, and his lips pressed into a thin line.
His gaze swept indifferently over Justin and focused instead on the tumultuous sea.
The silence was suffocating.
He didn't need to explain himself, nor could he.
60% A Finished Orion was someone who, in the eyes of the Crosses, had hurt Seraphina in an unforgivable way.
Now, he had pushed her to the brink of destruction.
He couldn't forgive himself-how could Justin? Justin snorted coldly. His eyes shifted from anger to a chilling calm.
He, too, was suppressing a massive storm of emotions.
"My dad said you've done enough. You don't owe us anything. You don't have to die for this. Orion, you should go back. I'll find my sister myself." With the accompanying wind, the air around them grew colder, plummeting.

"I'm not doing this for your family, Justin. I'm doing it for Seraphina." For a sliver of hope! As long as she remained undiscovered, there remained a chance. How could he leave her behind? Justin paused slightly as he spoke, each sentence striking straight at Orion's heart.
"Then why did you treat her like that before? Our entire family couldn't bear to say a harsh word to her, and n you threw her away like trash." In that instant, Orion's face turned pale.
Orion's lips parted slightly, but he didn't know what to say. Justin took another swig of vodka and spoke without care.
"When she studied abroad in Etopia, my dad hired eight maids to take care of her-she secretly dismissed them all. Sivir wanted to fly there there times a month to cook for her. Sergave her all his research thirty times a grants, and I only took roles that were filmed in Etopia. We thought that was the farthest she would ever be from us. But when she married you, she didn't contact us for three years. She severed all ties with everyone. Orion, she valued you more than us, and what was the result?"
Justin's voice broke as tears began to fall uncontrollably, He wiped them away and tilted the bottle to drain the last drops. Ken and the pilot, sitting in the front, didn't dare make a sound.
