This route was more befitting of Logan's character. It wouldn't rouse Olivia's suspicions.
"A shady ship? Is it safe?" Olivia asked.
"I've already informed my friend beforehand. As long as we stay in the room and avoid messing with anyone else,
we'll be fine. We won't participate in any activities on the ship. We're just hitching a ride."
In her subconscious mind, Olivia wasn't quite willing to get on a ship like that. She feared that it would be
dangerous, but this was one of the very few ways for her to go back.
"Alright." She agreed.
"Don't worry, Ms. Fordham. I'll protect you guys."
Olivia nodded, putting more trust in him now.
After spending the last three days on the island, Ethan prepared a wig and a mask for Olivia.
"Ms. Fordham, most of the passengers on the ship aren't good people. Ordinary people like us might raise suspicion,
so we have to pretend to be a married couple.
"As for Ms. Alicia, she'll have to put up with it."
Ethan paused for a moment. "Normal children wouldn't appear on ships like that unless they're ... goods."
Olivia frowned deeply.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe could also make some guesses. In shadowy corners where the sunlight couldn't reach, filth and darkness
prevailed.
"Make arrangements as you see fit," she said.
On the day of their departure, they took a yacht and boarded a huge and luxurious cruise ship.
Alicia hid in the suitcase, all curled up.
As for Olivia, the long wig she was wearing fluttered in the wind. She and Ethan were wearing high-end clothes and
they both wore masks.
They encountered a few passengers on their way. Under the masks, their eyes swept across Olivia as if they were
appraising goods.
The masks could hide their faces, but their human nature was in full view.
Of course, Olivia didn't like those gazes. She was about to glare back at them when a strong arm appeared on her
waist, pulling her in a certain direction.
She rammed into Ethan's firm chest.
Lowering his voice, Ethan spoke in her ear, "Excuse me."
Olivia knew that he was coming to her rescue. He was using this method to tell the others that Olivia was already
taken. This was the simplest and most direct method.
The other people averted their gazes as if they had lost interest.
Still, some shameless passengers took the initiative to scoot closer.
Sweeping his leery gaze across Olivia, a man said, "Sir, are you interested in joining us? We have a multiplayer
session tonight."
Even though his voice was small, it still reached Olivia's ears.
"It's a trading game." He added.
When he spoke those words, Olivia felt herself getting worked up.
Before they boarded the ship, Ethan had already told her that there were various kinds of people there. She had
just arrived, but she had already received such shocking treatment.
The man had just finished speaking when Ethan whipped his head around to glare at the man. His gaze was
extremely cold. "Get lost!"
"Tch, just say you're not joining. What are you so mad for?"
It was a short route, but Olivia had already met several perverts along the way.
When they arrived at their room, they carried the child out of the suitcase right away.
Ethan told the two not to sneak out at all costs. As long as they paid the price, they could have all their needs met in
the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter staying there for around two weeks, they would be able to arrive at Aldenvine.
"Allie, we'll just stay here from today onward. We must never go out this door, understand?"
"Alright."
Olivia glanced around the room. It was a huge suite.
"I'll be sleeping in the small single room outside. You and Ms. Alicia will be sleeping inside. If anything happens, you
can call me right away," Ethan said.
"Thanks." Olivia handed Ethan the card Keith had given her. "It must cost a lot to stay here. I got this card from Dr.
Rogers, so you can hold onto it for now."
Ethan didn't decline. "Sure. You and Ms. Alicia should rest first. I'll go out and make arrangements."
"Be careful."
When Ethan closed the door, the expression on his face instantly turned cold.
He glanced at his phone. Then, he entered one of the rooms.
The man who asked for a trade just now was tied up and kneeling on the floor.
Kelvin spat, "Boss, we caught this dude."
Ethan didn't even look at the man. When he approached the man, he kicked the man over.
Stepping on his chest, Ethan crushed the man with his shiny shoe. "Tell me, what do you want to trade?
