Chapter 637
J came back to consciousness to the sound of the ceaseless thunderous ps of the surf against
the rocks.
She opened her eyes again and looked at the sea. The rain had eased uppletely but the sky was
still an ominous gloomy grey. She had no idea of how long she had been there.
She was exhausted so she curled up under the shelter of some rocks and slept for some time.
She looked in the distance to the horizon and couldn’t spot a single boat or ship passing by. There was
no sign of life apart from the asional seagull diving into the reef.
J swallowed hard and licked her chapped lips, and her stomach growled ravenously. Now she was
parched and starving.
Fortunately, since it had rained today, some water had collected in a shallow depression in the reef.
Shey on the reef and scooped up some water into her cupped hands. She sipped the water to try to
quench her thirst.
After sipping some of it, she felt like some life had returned to her body.
As for food, J could only look for seaweed and bird eggs on the rocks, which barely filled her
stomach.

When a person was extremely hungry and thirsty, food of any kind felt as precious as gold.
As soon as she finished eating, a downpour of rain ensued once again. The only thing she could do
was curl up under the shelter of rocks to avoid the whipping wind and rain.
The night sea breeze was frigid. She took off her wet coat and ced it on the reef. She incessantly
rubbed her hands together, desperately trying to keep herself warm.
J could do nothing but wait. She encouraged herself to hang on for a few more days. There would
definitely be a boating for her.
After two days of staying by the reef, the weather finally took a turn for the better. The sun dispelled the
dark clouds and stormy haze.
She climbed to the highest point of the reef and stared out at the sea anxiously.
She desperately hoped that there would be a boat passing by. She imagined countless times that she
would stand at the top of the reef and shout when she saw a boat so that the boatman could see her
ande to her rescue.
Unfortunately, there were only seagulls and endless waves to apany her.
On the third morning, J was woken up by the sound of a yacht.
She thought it was an auditory hallucination. When she rubbed her eyes and looked ahead, she saw a
yacht floating quite nearby! She was thrilled and filled with wild excitement!
J climbed to the highest point of the reef, took off her coat, waved it, and shouted at the yacht in
the distance, “This way! Help!”
Without dy, the yacht soon approached her.
“Are you J White? We are the rescue team sent by the White family.” The muscr man on the
yacht reached out his hand to pull J up onto the yacht. “Come on. In order to find you, we have
searched almost every inch of this sea!”
Immersed in the excitement of being saved, J walked toward the yacht and said gratefully, “Thank
you! My mom and dad must be really anxious. Where is my husband? Did hee with you?”
The two people on the yacht looked at each other.
The thinner rescuer said, “Yes, they are all waiting for you on the shore. Youe up here first. It will
take some time to get you there.”
J frowned. Seeing their reaction to her question, she could sense something was amiss.
She smiled and said, “I want to inform my parents of my safety first. You also need to report the
situation, right? Can you give me the phone? I want to talk to them.”
“Well…” These knights in shining armor who hade to her rescue actually looked flummoxed and
as if they couldn’t find the words to answer her.
J immediately went on the defensive because she was now suspicious. “Since you im to be sent
by the White family, you should inform them as soon as possible that you have found me. Why are you
hesitating about making a phone call to them?”
