Chapter 249 Has Crosses Gone Bankrupt?
Seraphina had a sudden realization.
“Were those people outside soldiers? Were there casualties in the fight with the pirates?”
If such a thing existed, she would feel deeply guilty.
The doctor lowered his head as he changed her bandages and then replaced her IV drip.
Hearing her concern, he smiled gently.
“No, there weren’t any casualties on our side. The pirates, on the other hand, weren’t so lucky, thanks to you. The people outside, including myself, are all old comrades of Orion. This island’s waters are pirate territory, so no government would send its forces here. Orion brought us here because he convinced an admiral he once served under. We’re not helping in any official military capacity, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
A heavy feeling settled in Seraphina’s chest, as if something had struck her. The doctor’s words made her feel even more indebted to Orion.
“Thank you all. If you hadn’t come, I might not have survived.”
The doctor shook his head and gave her a meaningful look.
Thank him, not us. We know you two are divorced, but we’re here because he said you’re his life.”
We couldn’t allow him to lose his life over this, the doctor thought.

Warm sunlight bathed the room, and the sea breeze lazily rustled the waves, making everything perfect.
The doctor quietly left. The room fell into silence again.
Seraphina felt a weight on her chest, like a giant stone pressing down and making it difficult to breathe.
Justin slipped in quietly. He sighed in relief after checking to make sure no one else was around.
“If it weren’t for the fact that they saved you, I wouldn’t have held back. I’ve been cooped up for days!”
Seraphina managed a small smile and said, “How is everyone?”
Justin walked over and gently tousled her hair.
“Sergio’s on the ship. If it weren’t for him, I’d still be searching the ocean to find where the plane crashed for you. Being smart has its advantages.”
Seraphina couldn’t help but chuckle. She felt a wave of relief wash over her. Seraphina had known it–if anyone could find her, it would be Sergio!
He truly was a genius!
“Sivir is doing well, and Dad’s in the hospital. He’s recovering

“Do you think he’s okay? After what happened to you, and when we couldn’t even find your body, Dad became so angry that he wanted to donate all of our family’s assets!”
Seraphina looked up at him in shock, her voice trembling as she asked cautiously.
“So, did our family go bankrupt?”
Can I still spend money like before?
Justin patted her shoulder, sighing heavily.
“Don’t worry, I got you covered. I won’t let you end up penniless!”
Seraphina breathed a sigh of relief. That was pleasing to hear!
She glanced down at herself, noticing that someone had changed her clothes. She felt much cleaner now, no longer as disheveled as she had been on the island.
With her siblings around, she wasn’t too concerned about anything else.
What’s Orion doing here?”
It was truly unexpected that he would come to rescue her.
At the mention of his name, Justin’s expression darkened.
“He’s shameless!”
Sergio walked in just in time to hear Justin’s comment, and he frowned slightly.
“Justin, how many times do I have to tell you to be objective?”
“Sergio, I knew you’d come to save me.”
Sergio was careful not to hurt her. He gave her a brief hug, then shot a glance at Justin.
“We couldn’t get near this area without Orion’s help. He’s the one who found someone to assist us. Ever since the plane crash, he’s been searching for you. Justin has been here for a while, but so has Orion. He’s
as much manpower and resources as we have. Given the level of risk associated with this mission, objectively speaking, Orion’s efforts have surprised both of us.”
