Chapter 325 Hanging By A Thread
“Dr. Thorne?” said Lysanne.
Lysander was already exhausted, her whole body weakening as she could only manage to nod
fervently.
Lysanne crouched down, quietly asking. “Are you all right?”
Lysander nodded, signaling for Lysanne to go get help quickly. She estimated that with Lysanne’s
strength, thetter would probably not be able to carry her out.
“Lost your voice?”
Lysander nodded fervently, persistently signaling with her eyes for Lysanne to call someone over.
It seemed as though Lysanne didn’t catch her hint and even mumbled a few words. “So, she’s tied up.
No wonder she couldn’t break free.”
“Lysanne!” It was the voice of Josiah, who hade over.
Lysander desperately tried to climb out, but in the next moment, a pair of hands firmly gripped her
shoulders.
Startled, she looked up only to see a fleeting, ruthless glint in Lysanne’s eyes. Then, with a sudden
force, Lysanne pushed her back and quickly locked the cabin door from the outside.
Josiah moved quickly. When he jumped onto the ship, the entire vessel gave a slight shudder. “Did you
find her? Is she in here?”
“Stop! Josiah, don’t open it! Dr. Thorne isn’t in there. just opened the door. It’s all aze inside.
already.”
“Did you open the door to take a look?”
“I did. It waspletely empty inside. Dr. Thorne wasn’t there, and the fire was raging in the cabin. I
was afraid the fire would spread, so I quickly shut the cabin door again.”
Daphne also arrived, asking, “What are you guys doing here? Did you find her?”
“No,” Lysanne said. “Let’s keep going. The fire is too intense. We need to find Dr. Thorne as soon as
possible.”
Daphne hummed in acknowledgment, “Then, I’ll continue over there.”
“All right” Lysanne said. “I’ll continue to search around. Josiah, you should head over there quickly,
too.”
Josiah didn’t reply.
“Josiah?”

ourse, I’m certain. I was also worried that the heavy smoke might ol scure my view, so I just bent
to take a closer look. Indeed, there was no one inside.”
Josiah didn’t say anything.
“By the way, Josiah, it just urred to me. If Dr. Thome heard our voices, with her intelligence, she’d
certainly devise a way to get our attention. We need to be extra vignt for any unusual vessels. It
might speed up our search.”
Once again, Josiah remained silent.
“Hey, did you hear something from that boat? Josiah, I think I just heard some noiseing from it.”
Immediately, Josiah asked, “Which one?”
“It’s to your left. Do you see it? It’s among those few ships over there. I’m not sure which one exactly,
but I’m certain the sound came from that direction.”
Following that, there was a flurry of hurried footsteps
After the boat violently rocked, it eventually returned to calmness.

The voices of everyone around began to grow increasingly distant.
Lysandery on the ground, letting out a bitter chuckle. Oh, Lysanne. She pretended to be a weakling
for so long. Atst, the opportunity for her revenge had arrived. Was it merely a coincidence that she
took advantage of the situation, or had she been in contact with Hariy all along? I forgot that Lysanne
and Harry met each other overseas. How could she possibly not know about what Harry had been
through recently? I know Josiah must’ve sent the money to Harry, but I bet he lost contact with Harry
after that. Then, it was Lysanne who found me with unerring uracy. Could such coincidences really
exist in the world? Myck of vignce is to me. I shouldn’t have lowered my guard around Lysanne,
and now I’ll never see the light of day again.
The fire was rapidly consuming the entire ship cabin.
Lysander was on the verge of suffocation. In one moment, she was enveloped by pure white smoke. In
the next, she was plunged into the dark realm of unconsciousness.
Earlier, she exhausted all her energy trying to catch Lysanne’s attention. Theck of oxygen made her
consciousness gradually hazy, slowly sinking into oblivion.
