The waves were huge earlier, so Mrs. Larson might’ve been swept away to a nearby island.” After reporting this to Brandon, the rescuers turned around to head to their ship.

“Wait.” Brandon called them.

He put on a life-saver and followed the rescue team to the ship.

“I’ll go with you.” Wiping away her tears, Johanna tried to stop him.

“Brandon, you’re not thinking straight.

The wind is too strong.

It’s too dangerous for you to go with them.” However, Brandon shook his head firmly.

“I’ll bring Natalie back safely.” The waves never ceased.

Instead, they became more and more violent, which was a huge roadblock to the rescue team.

After what felt like an eternity at the sea, the search and rescue team still got nothing.

Brandon asked, “How long have we been looking for her?” “Some other boats came here earlier than we did.

They’ve been searching for an hour along the coast, but there’s no sign of her yet,” the rescue team member said through chattering teeth.

It had been raining nonstop and night had fallen.

The temperature continued to drop, and everyone was shivering from the cold.

Brandon nodded and said nothing more.

He continued to stand at the bow of the ship with the binoculars.

His white shirt was drenched from the rain, clinging to his broad shoulders.

He didn’t hide from the rain.

Instead, he stood with his back straight and a determined look in his eyes.

The rescue personnel on the ship couldn’t hold on any longer.

They even resorted to drinking liquor to warm themselves in the cabin, and one of the crew poured a mug for Brandon.

He shouted at Brandon, “Mr. Larson, would you like to come in and have a drink? You might freeze to death out here.” “Thank you.” Brandon accepted the mug of liquor and downed it in one gulp.
