Chapter 558: 561 Isolated Island (5).

Chapter 561 Isolated Island (5).

The salty taste of the sea immediately stung her eyes and nose, making her cringe underwater, while the sudden disappearance of air filled her body with dread. What if I don't make it? What if I'm making a big mistake and drown here?

These negative thoughts filled Ran Xueyi's mind as she struggled to swim. However, she had no time to waste hesitating. Thus, as soon as she got used to moving her limbs in the water, Ran Xueyi started to swim away from the yacht. There was no time to lose.

Right now, everyone must be waiting for her to come out of the restroom. Once they felt she was taking too long, someone would have to come and check on her. And when they realize that something went wrong, they will start searching for her. Ran Xueyi estimated the time it would take for them to notice she was gone. 5 minutes. It was the maximum she could get out of this situation. It sounded long enough for her to get away, but in reality, the way from the yacht to the huge stone on the other side of the yacht was too far. Before arriving on this island, Ran Xueyi stayed vigilant and observed the sea. That's when she saw the large stone that was peeking out of the water. Truth be told, Ran Xueyi never planned to escape if nothing suspicious was happening. But coupled with the words she heard last night and the strange arrangements of these people, Ran Xueyi didn't take on any chances of taking the short end of the stick. So, she prepared different options for herself to choose from. One, she could hide under the yacht and wait until everyone left. But this would mean Ran Xueyi would be staying underwater for a long time, and she'd die of suffocation. Second, she will hide somewhere inside the yacht—at least, somewhere no one could find her. But what if they decided to ransack the whole place? Where could she possibly hide then?

And thus, even though she feared the thought of being a shark's snack or drowning, Ran Xueyi still chose the third option out of them all.

And lastly, she could jump off the yacht and get as far as she could until they gave up looking for her. All these options were difficult to execute, and the possibility of her risking her life was higher than staying on the boat. However, Ran Xueyi didn't want to put the noose around her neck in the hands of the others. She'll decide when she will live and die.

And thus, even though she feared the thought of being a shark's snack or drowning, Ran Xueyi still chose the third option out of them all.

haa...

ugh...

Ran Xueyi twisted her body and faced the sky while underwater, letting her body float slightly upward until her face emerged from the water. Thanks to her training when she was young, she could swim quite fast, so she could put some distance from the yacht. But she couldn't continue staying underwater. She needed air. And she needed to breathe. ▬▬▬

On the boat, the atmosphere wasn't as calm as the water outside. "Idiots!"

"I told you to watch over everyone and not let a single mistake happen!" Mister Park huffed in anger, veins popping out on his forehead.

He paced around the deck and bit the tips of his fingers. It didn't matter that a child escaped. The problem was that his reputation was at risk. As a Handler, Mister Park gave so much importance to his reputation. In their line of business, where they take on any requests of their clients, no matter what it is, being trustworthy and careful with their job is a must. For the past five years, he has made no mistake. He executed every task and did all the requests his clients asked of him without a question. And if he fails, only his corpse will be left. This time, he promised to bring twenty children to the island. And if he had done a good job, he could choose one of them as his toy. Everything was smooth sailing. They even arrived on the island where the Harvest will happen. They escorted the children to the island without trouble. Everything was perfect. So perfect that even he, Mister Park, rubbed his palms against each other for the fun he'll get once the Harvest starts.

Then, why... Just why did something like this happen?!

If only she didn't make a fuss and obediently stayed there, would this happen to them? But what these children didn't realize was that Ran Xueyi had long warned them about what was about to happen. She even woke them all up last night to tell them what she'd heard from these men. Unfortunately, no one believed her, and they brushed it off.

Mister Park glanced at the other children and sighed. Thankfully, not everything was in vain. Although he had lost the toy he wanted so badly to play with, it didn't ruin his entire plan. In any case, he could find other toys amongst the rest of the children that's still on the island.

But first,

"Get some men and quickly find the girl!" Mister Park walked around the deck and leaned over the railing. "I don't care if you have to comb through every sand on this island or if you find her dead. Find her for me!"

▬▬▬

Inside the car. The children who went first looked through the car windows in awe. The island was vibrant and majestic, with all the tropical things that one would want to see when on vacation. "Wow, is that a Komodo dragon?"

"Look over there! There's a pool and slides!"

"There's a mansion on the hill!"

They all exclaimed about their discoveries and praised the island for its beauty. Sitting on the backseat of the car, Janice smiled contentedly at the beautiful scenery before them. Everything was going well. What was Ran Xueyi afraid of?

She laughed mockingly for almost falling for Ran Xueyi's words. When she first heard what Ran Xueyi said, Janice was filled with terror. However, she didn't show it to her face. Of course, she never really believed what Ran Xueyi said. Even the kids, who woke up and heard Ran Xueyi last night, laughed in the morning and told her to ignore it. Which she did. She couldn't understand why Ran Xueyi was being a worrywart when the people who saved them even brought them to such a nice and beautiful place. Wasn't this being ungrateful and forgetful of the kindness of others by returning it with suspicion and spite?

"Ha, why am I thinking about her? She'll get her karma soon." Janice scoffed and made herself comfortable with the cushion of her seat.

Hm? Why do I feel sleepy?

So, strange. Why do her eyes feel so heavy? Wait, why is it so silent? Why is everyone not saying anything?

Before long, even Janice, who was still slightly conscious, finally closed her eyes and went into a deep slumber.
