Chapter 305
The night darkened, and the rain poured heavier.
The majestic waves were pounding against the ship.
Olivia was sitting in the warm cabin, feeling the ship rocking back and forth.
She didn’t like that feeling because it made her uneasy.
She needed to admit that Colin was a meticulous man.
Someone had decorated her room at his request beforehand. The interior was almost the same as herprevious room.
Snowball was sleeping in its cat bed.
Olivia lit a scented candle with a calming effect and played soothing music.
There were tortilla chips, fries, dried fruits, and a bottle of orange juice placed on the table. They werebought from Yearwoods ‘Restaurant.
She didn’t have an appetite, so she read a book. But she lost her focus after barely reading two lines ofthe story.
Like a cat on hot bricks, she walked back and forth in the room.
At that moment, the ship stopped, increasing her uneasiness.
She set the book down, wanting to head outside to ask what was going on.
Olivia bumped into Colin at the door. He smiled faintly. “Olivia.”
“Colin, what’s going on?”
“It’s nothing, Olivia. You’re just too nervous.”
Noticing that she was overwhelmed by distress, he comforted her, “If you can’t stop thinking about it, gotake a bath.
“I prepared some soothing essential oil. You should give it a try. Don’t worry about it. The maritimepolice are here for inspection.
“They’re usually here to check if there are any prohibited goods or drugs. We’re good to go after wegive them cooperation.”
He caressed her head softly. “We’re already out at sea. Ethan can never find you.”
He was so gentle that he seemed like a reliable elder brother rather than someone younger than her.
Only then did Olivia recall the fact that he was younger than her by a year. He was more mature thanhis age.
“Colin, you’re just a student. Why aren’t you afraid?” Her hunch was telling her that he had beenthrough many hardships, hence his calm demeanor,
He said honestly, “I was sent abroad when I was young. Of course, I’ve suffered a lot. Plus, I knew mycircumstances very well. “I couldn’t depend on anyone. Since being in a foreign land was moredangerous than being in the country, I befriended all sorts of people. That was why I was able to hiremercenaries.”
“I’m sorry to hear that.” Olivia looked at him seriously.
Colin responded, “It’s nothing. At least my father still supported me financially. So, it wasn’t that bad.
“Alright, enough with the past stories. Olivia, have a seat and eat something.
“You can take a bath and get some sleep. We’ll arrive in the High Seas tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
He glanced at the message he received. As he had expected, Ethan had come.

Colin had guessed that Bryan wasn’t a mere stranger. The latter could recognize Olivia’s handiworkbased on the little red ball.
Fortunately, Colin has made a backup plan for that. He thought, “Search for Olivia all you want, EthanMiller. Let’s see if you can find her by the time the sun rises
Colin withdrew his gaze from Olivia and closed the door lightly for her.
Right then, the warmth in his eyes gave way to a cloud of obsession.
He thought, “Olivia, I’ve finally found you. Even if the Grim Reaper is my enemy, I will never let him takeyou away from me.”
The number of ships forced to stop was increasing. The area was full of ships.
Everyone began guessing if something big was happening
“Perhaps the mothership of the neighboring country has sunk?”
“Is there a war happening?”
Everyone had their own guesses. Some of them scanned the area at the deck while some of themwere quietly waiting for the show to unfold.
The number of maritime police was increasing, and Colin grew uneasy.novelbin
Ethan was indeed the person at the top of the pyramid in the business world. Thus, it was normal forhim to use such tricks
when it came to business.
The question was, was he that influential enough to have the maritime police serve him as well?
To Colin, it seemed like the maritime police were carrying out their responsibilities as usual.
However, Olivia didn’t think the same.
When she saw those numbered maritime boats, she recalled how that island was surrounded on bothland and sea.
Had Ethan not had the authority to dispatch the maritime police, the battleship wouldn’t have shown upback then!
One of the maritime boats was moving closer toward them.
Olivia’s complexion was looking bad.
