Chapter 797


    The little boy sensed her fear, and he quickly wrapped his arms around her.He said, "Don''t be afraid,


    Alicia."


    He covered the little girl''s ears and tried his best tofort her.


    The girl wasn''t as brave as him, after all.


    Tears started to stream down her face when she thought about her dad ending up like the cat.She was


    scared.


    Terrified.


    Her dad and brother were the only people she had left in the world.


    What would they do if their dad died? The breeze blew on the sea, and the waves crashed against the


    reef.


    They could hear the sounds clearly.


    Then, they heard more and more people running around them.

    The girl bit down on her lip.She didn''t dare to make a sound.


    Back on the cargo ship, Logan sprung to his feet when he heard the gunshots.He quickly went to the


    side of the ship to look at what was going on.


    Olivia heard the gunshots, too.She started to feel nervous even though she felt like the gunshots were


    far away.


    "What happened?"


    Logan said with a serious expression, "Don''t be afraid.


    It has nothing to do with us.


    Something must have happened on the ind.


    "Sometimes, incidents happen on these inds that don''t belong to any countries.We''ll be safe as long


    as we stay on the ship.Even though Logan''s words made sense, Olivia felt like things wouldn''t be so


    simple.The ship needed repairs so suddenly.And they had to dy the departure time.Those were


    ominous signs.These ces werewless.No one knew what would happen if they stayed for too long.


    "Go ask for updates on the ship.When can we set sail?"


    "Okay, Ms.Fordham.You should go back to your room and stay there.I''ll take you away if things go


    wrong."


    Logan suddenly thought of something and turned around to look at Olivia.


    "You can always trust me."


    Then, he ran off quickly.


    Olivia headed back to her room for safety.


    Logan came back to her after a while.


    "Don''t worry, Ms.Fordham.I''ve looked into it.There was a gunfight on the shore not long ago.


    "The gunshots came from that area.The person got away.We are not the targets."


    Olivai sighed in relief.


    That was good news.


    "I''ve talked to the captain.They will being back on the ship as soon as possible.There are some


    big and strong sailors on board.They will do their best to keep you safe."


    Olivia rubbed her temples.


    "I might have been overthinking.You should rest.It''s gettingte."


    "Alright."


    It waste.


    Oliviay on her bed and waited for a while.


    There weren''t any more gunshots.


    So, she closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.


    The ocean breeze was blowing at the two children hiding under the cliff.


    The little girl sobbed and said, "Zack ...my leg hurts."


    Their legs were numb from the long period of crouching.


    They were still too young, and they didn''t know better.


    The little girl only knew that her leg wasn''t feeling good, but she didn''t dare to move.


    They waited for a long time, but the man never came back.


    The little boy signaled for the girl to stay silent and tried to climb out of the hiding spot to check their


    surroundings.


    Unexpectedly, his stiff legs didn''t get folded under him, and he tumbled toward the sea.


    The girl cried out, "Zack!"
