Chapter 1718
Sean asked Merak without preamble, "Any clues yet?" "My team and I have searched the area where Alkaid fell into the water. But there's no sign of her anywhere," said Merak, bending her head uneasily.
After a pause, she continued, "I'm afraid that something has happened to Alkaid."
Until she arrived there she didn't realize how dangerous it was. The current was turbulent, and she could fall back into the waves once she was careless.
Agile as Alkaid was, she was not as strong as usual due to the injury.
That was why Merak was so worried.
Hearing that, Sean gave her a look and said, "Don't scare yourself with your own imagination."
Despite his quiet tone, Merak heard the reprimand in his voice and replied," Yes, sir!" "Keep looking!" croaked Sean and ordered, "Even if the chances of finding her are remote, you're just going to find Alkaid!
"We should arrive at and leave this island together!"
Merak gave a dip of her head, "You may rest assured that I'll do my best, Master."
Noticing the circles under Merak's eyes, Sean said, "Rest now. You've been pushing yourself too hard these days." "OK."
Sean's voice sounded from behind just as Merak was about to leave.
"Don't tell Molly."
Merak halted and turned around, "You can rest easy, Master. I don't want her to know this matter more than you do."
Speaking of Molly, Merak suddenly remembered that she had forgotten one thing.
"Oh, by the way, when we were looking for Alkaid, we rescued a man. He seems to be Madam's teacher, Jadon." "Jadon?” Sean frowned and asked, "How's he? Where is he now?" "He was injured and was settled. Logan's taking care of him now."
Sean nodded, "I see."
Merak looked at him and then left without more words.
Sean, in fact, would have forgotten that Jadon was in the base if Merak hadn’t rescued him.
'Molly would definitely be worried if she found it,’ thought Sean.
He was sort of stuck with that because he couldn't keep it from her as Alkaid's missing.
Molly woke up soon after Merak left.
After washing up, she went out of her room, yawning. Her pretty face looked strained and weary.
She, apparently, had a rough night.
Tiredness and concerns about Alkaid made good sleep elude her.
Sean moved toward her and flipped her shorter, stray pieces behind her ears, gazing at her, "What got you up so early?" "I couldn't sleep."
Seeing her ghastly face, Sean was concerned and then took her hand," Let’s go for breakfast." "Okay."
Sean then led her into the dining room.
Hunger, presumably, drove Molly to finish a cup of milk and a sandwich.
Sean was delighted to see she had such a good appetite, smiling.
He got a napkin and wiped her mouth, "Merak rescued Jadon."
Molly strained her eyes, "My teacher?” "Exactly. He was injured.”
Hearing that, Molly started to fidget and stood up, "I've to see him."
With too much stuff happening in those days, she almost forgot that Jadon was in the base. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
