Chapter 1254


    Chapter 1254 Shane Arrived


    At that moment, Natalie finally understood the feeling embodied by the statement on the inte that


    went along the lines of “My white knight wille to my rescue on horseback.”


    While Shane didn’te on horseback, he was piloting a titanic cruise ship to rescue her and bring her


    home.


    In the living room downstairs, Jacqueline was momentarily taken aback when she heard the horn of a


    cruise ship.


    Hmm? What’s happening here? Why is there the sound of a cruise ship? Is Sean back? Or is a cruise


    ship sailing past this area?


    Her eyes narrowed a fraction, and the apprehension within her mounted. Her heartbeat elerated


    significantly to the point that she could even hear it pounding against her ribcage.


    No, it’s probably not Sean. It’s most likely a cruise ship sailing past by coincidence. After all, this area


    isn’t all that far from international waters. It’s only about a hundred nautical miles, and when converted,


    three hundred over kilometers. There’s a gigantic casino with worldwide acim on international waters,


    so many rich people go there to have fun and enjoy themselves. Therefore, it’s not entirely impossible


    that they’re taking this route to head there.


    But just then, the housekeeper, Marina, dashed out of the kitchen. With her eyes fixated on Jacqueline,


    she shrieked, “It’s bad, Miss! A cruise ship is heading right for the ind!”


    “What? Heading right for the ind without detouring?” Jacqueline’s expression changed drastically.


    “Yes.” The housekeeper nodded fervently.


    When Jacqueline heard that, her hands curled into fists. “Could it be that the cruise ship had


    malfunctioned and couldn’t change directions, thus heading straight for us?”


    “I don’t know, but it’s new, and its speed is uniform. Hence, it doesn’t look as though it had suffered a


    mishap,” the housekeeper replied.


    Jacqueline bit her lip. “Then, it’sing for us. Let me see who exactly it is who’s trespassing on


    someone else’s private ind!”


    Having said that, she stormed out of the vi in a fit of pique.


    As soon as she walked out, she saw that a cruise ship hade to a stop on the sea approximately


    three hundred meters away.


    While she watched, three speedboats drove out from the cruise ship’s equipmentpartment. On the


    heels of that, men in ck climbed down from the cruise ship, one after another. They boarded two of


    the speedboats and streaked toward the ind.


    Not only were they all dressed exactly the same, but they were also tall and burly, their auras forbidding.


    At a single nce, one could tell that they were battle-hardened bodyguards.


    At the sight of those bodyguards, Jacqueline’s heart jolted, and her face paled.


    What’s this? Why are there so many bodyguards? Anyhow, that’s not the main issue here. The most


    important thing is the three speedboats!


    The instant she caught sight of the two words on the three speedboats, she finally panicked. A buzzing


    filled her mind, and it was as though a bolt of thunder struck her, making her mind go nk.


    How could it be Shane? He actually found this ce? How did he manage to do so?


    All of a sudden, she recalled Natalie’s remark for her to watch out before thetter went upstairs. At long


    last, she understood the meaning behind that warning.


    It’s because she has long since known that he’sing! That was why she told me to watch out and


    sneaked back upstairs herself, afraid that I’d take her hostage and affect his rescue effort! Argh! Damn it!


    What a b*tch!


    Fury zed within her, and her entire face contorted. The urge to rip Natalie into a thousand pieces


    gripped her.


    Unfortunately, she couldn’t do anything despite harboring such a thought. Natalie had already locked


    herself in her room and gone into hiding ages ago.


    “Miss, quick, let’s go!” Although the housekeeper had never seen Shane, she had seen his picture


    before. Thus, she naturally realized the gravity of the matter when she glimpsed the man then and


    hurriedly reminded Jacqueline to flee.


    In response, Jacqueline sneered derisively.


    Go? Where can I go? The only means of transportation is Sean’s helicopter. There’s nothing else other


    than that. Oh yes, there’s a kayak in the vi’s warehouse. But what use is that? Before we can even get


    a hundred meters away, the speedboats will have caught up to us! In other words, we’re backed into a


    corner now.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    She shook all over, and resentment brewed within her.


    Never had she expected to be caught by Shane then after having been on the run for so many months


    and escaping him so many times.
