Chapter 1246 Eat In The Kitchen
Connor nodded. “If Mommy’s location doesn’t change, she will be here. This island is way smaller than all the other known islands in Nalanica. No wonder it’s not shown on the world map.”
“Do you mean that the island has yet to be discovered? Even the satellite can’t detect it?” Joyce was shocked to hear that.
“Yes, most likely. It’s too small and in the middle of the fog zone, which causes interference to the satellite to a certain extent. Thus, it’s normal for the satellite to miss it. Or maybe the satellite has long detected it, but it’s not updated on the world map due to its small size. What we are looking at right now is proof of this possibility. It’s a video transmitted by our country’s satellite, which means our country has discovered it, but I’m not sure about the other countries,” he replied, ending his explanation with a shrug.
Joyce and the others were confused by his words.
“Forget it. All these are irrelevant. Now, the most important thing is to send the location to Mr. Shane and let him rescue Nat quickly,” Joyce uttered.
Crossing his arms before his chest, Connor reassured, “Don’t worry, Aunt Joyce. I have already sent it. I’m sure Dad has received it.”
On the cruise ship, Shane narrowed his eyes as he looked at the coordinates sent by Connor.
Silas, who was behind him, exclaimed, “So it’s an island that doesn’t exist on the world map, and the satellite may not be able to detect it. How did Sean find it then?”
“It doesn’t matter how he found it. We need to head toward this location now!” Shane stood up and gave an order.
Silas nodded. “Okay.”
Soon, the massive cruise ship changed its course, veering to the left.
On the island, Natalie put Jacqueline’s phone back in its original spot and immediately returned to her room.
After taking a shower, she went to bed.
That night, she had a good night’s sleep as she knew Shane would come to her rescue soon.
In the morning, the knocks on the door stirred her from sleep.
Frowning, Natalie asked, “Who is it?”
“Madam, it’s me. It’s time for breakfast.” The housekeeper’s voice sounded from outside the room.
While grunting her approval, Natalie stretched her body lazily and sat up. Then, she headed toward the bathroom.
Once she was done freshening up, she got changed and went downstairs.
At the second floor’s landing, she ran into Jacqueline, who had just gotten out of her room.
Unlike last night, Jacqueline’s eyes no longer looked glassy.
Moreover, she could walk normally without needing to fumble around, which proved that her eyesight had recovered.
As expected, Jacqueline’s vision loss is intermittent. Thank goodness that I returned her phone yesterday. Otherwise, I would’ve been in deep trouble. Hmm, judging from her expression, I don’t think she noticed that her phone was taken.
At that thought, Natalie averted her eyes from Jacqueline. Instead of greeting the latter, she briskly continued her trip down the stairs.
Walking behind her, Jacqueline curled her lips when she noticed her anxious pace. “Natalie, why are you walking so fast? Are you afraid that I might push you down?”
Upon hearing that, Natalie halted in her tracks and looked over her shoulder. “I’m sorry. That’s not what I’m afraid of. I just didn’t want your stench to rub off on me.”
“You…” The smug smile on Jacqueline’s face disappeared as rage welled up within her.
Natalie pursed her lips and clicked her tongue as she turned around, ignoring Jacqueline while walking downstairs.
When she took her seat in the dining room, Jacqueline arrived a beat later and sat across from her.
Natalie uttered coldly, “Jacqueline, I don’t think that’s your seat.”
“What did you say?” Jacqueline furrowed her brows.
Pointing at the kitchen, Natalie replied, “There’s where you are supposed to dine. Did you forget what I said before? I don’t want to eat with you, so Sean has instructed you to dine in the kitchen whenever I am around. Are you not going to obey that?”
As she spoke, she stared at Jacqueline with a stony gaze.
