Chapter 1228 Hugged Her Tightly

As Shane was deep in thought, someone knocked on the door of his room on the cruise ship.

Pursing his lips, he lifted his head. “Come in.”

Silas pushed open the door and walked in. “Mr. Shane, one of the search and rescue vessels radioed back and reported no human life on one of the uninhabited islands.”

Shane’s eyes narrowed a fraction, and his gaze dimmed a shade. A long while passed before he murmured, “Got it. What about the rest of the uninhabited islands?”

“They’re still being checked out,” Silas answered.

Shane nodded in acknowledgment. “Okay, got it. Inform me immediately once there’s news.”

“Sure.” Silas nodded before he left the room.

Shane had long since braced himself for the news that there was no trace of Natalie on the first uninhabited island. After all, things couldn’t possibly be so smooth sailing that he would manage to find her on the first attempt.

Nonetheless, abject disappointment still swamped him when he heard that there was no trace of her on the first uninhabited island.
