Regret H 626
"Stop thinking about it."
Jack leaned closer to me, saying, "Even if he can get onto this island, he can't take you away."
"I won't let you two meet."
After saying this, he turned to Senno, "You know what to say. With or without the person in front of you."
"Forget your arrangements, I have my own place to stay. You don't need to worry about food, I'll take care of that. In a couple of days, I'll be leaving with my people."
Senno didn't reveal what he was really planning, he simply said, "Do as you wish."
A weight settled in my heart.
There wouldn't even be a chance to buy some time.
Frank reached the shore, glancing around to assess the number of people.
"Frank."
Senno hurried over, arms open for an embrace.
Frank sidestepped and asked bluntly, "Where's my lover?"
Senno's eyes seemed to almost bore into Frank.
Suppressing his anger, Frank asked again.
Senno replied, "Don't worry. She's fine. I've prepared some food, let's eat first."
Something flickered in Frank's eyes, and he replied coolly, "That's fine."This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Senno, however, was delighted.
This was his prize.
Chatter,
Frank remained afpof throughout Senno's appearing casual while actually observing his surroundings.
As they passed a patch of grass, he noticed something glinting but didn't mention it, simply gesturing to the right.
"Is that an undeveloped forest over there?"
Senno was thrilled to be talking to him.
"Yeah, it's not developed yet. If you have any ideas, feel free to build it as ..
Frank glanced back at the grass before continuing forward
you see fit."
Senno followed eagerly. "I specially invited chefs from your country to make dishes you love."
Frank showed little surprise.
It wasn't surprising that Senno could find basic information.
He wouldn't be able to find out anything else though.
"Frank, sit."
Once they entered the dining area, Senno pulled out a chair for Frank.
Frank didn't object and sat down.
Senno took a seat beside him, serving him food.
The people around them were avoiding eye contact.
Kevin was also on the island.
Frank had taken back his rightful property from the Shaw family, and Kevin still held a grudge.
Of course, he had to come and take the opportunity to reclaim the Shaw family's assets.
Simone had also come along.
Bethany had been placed in a care facility for treatment, her mental state wasn't that great.
Simone was there not only to reclaim the Shaw family assets but also to seek revenge on Charlotte.
The pain she had endured would be repaid a thousandfold.
As long as Charlotte died, Frank would likely be devastated.
Once on the island, and away from the strong winds by the shore, I casually tossed aside my coat. Jack glanced at the coat and pulled me into the forest.
From his expression, he hadn't noticed my ulterior motive, but I didn't dare to let my guard down. After walking for a while, we came to a small cabin that appeared to have been cleaned in advance, spotless.
"Sit down and rest for a bit, I'll go prepare something to eat."
Jack patted the side of the bed. When I didn't move, he gently pushed me down to sit.
He squatted beside me, looking at me tenderly. "I'm sorry for putting you through this for a couple of days, I'll make it up to you later. From now on, I won't let you suffer even a little. Charlotte, trust me. I'll make sure you're happy and content, and you'll forget all about Frank."
