Chapter 242 Negotiation.
Seraphina tried desperately to calm herself, but her heart was racing uncontrollably.
Her instincts were always sharp. When she saw the three armed foreigners approaching, she knew immediately that they were the pirates who had been chasing them.
Standing there, her mind went blank, and her heart felt as if it were submerged in icy water, chilled to the
core.
Despair! She felt more overwhelmed than ever before, and it loomed over her like a dark cloud.
She felt an overwhelming urge to cry out in frustration
Why was she being pushed to the brink of survival again and again?

With the arrogance of a victor surveying his prize, he spoke to his companions. His voice was cold and filled with greed.
“Look, this woman is quite the catch. We’ve hit the jackpot this time.”
They all laughed together, their laughter wild and unrestrained.
Their eyes were venomous, and they seemed to lick Seraphina’s neck like a snake.
This was their territory. Seraphina was merely prey in the palm of their hands.
The pirates on the yacht watched the scene from afar with amusement.
