It turned out that all wireless signals had been blocked off in that area.
Once the signal had been blocked, it would be hard or even impossible to trace the person one was looking for.
Perhaps that was the reason why Solomon had chosen to lock Sasha up in this place.
It had not occurred to him that the blocked signals were the handiwork of Sabrina and not of natural causes.
All Sasha could do now was to wait for the speedboat to get out of the area.
Just as they got further away, Sasha noticed that the sky was getting darker.
“Sabrina, is it very late now?”
“What do you mean?” Sabrina turned around impatiently.
However, her expression changed upon looking at Sasha.
“I’m asking about the time. What time is it now? It’s starting to get dark so I assume it’s getting late?” asked Sasha.
As far as she could see, it was getting darker everywhere.
It must be late then.
What’s going to happen to us? Being out at sea in the middle of the night is not an ideal situation.
Sasha was very worried.
Just then, the speedboat stopped moving. She looked up and saw a figure coming toward her.
“Sabrina?”
“A-Are you all right?” asked Sabrina.
“What?” Sasha looked surprised. “I’m fine. What’s wrong? Why did you stop the boat?”
A long time later, Sabrina reached out and touched Sasha’s face. Blood was all over her hand in the next moment.
“You’re injured. You have blood all over your face.”
Sasha was startled.
I’m injured? But I don’t feel anything at all. How can I be injured?
She reached up and touched her face dubiously.
She felt something sticky on her hand.
Maybe it’s a scratch? At the present moment, she did not experience any unbearable pain.
Sasha tore off a piece of her clothes and wiped her face. “I’m all right. It’s just a minor injury. Carry on driving. If you don’t, they’ll catch up to us very soon.”
Sabrina said nothing. She glanced at Sasha’s bloodied eyes and went back to driving the boat.
A few hours later, the signal on the phone came on. They quickly hid behind a reef peak and prepared to make the call.
“Quick, make the call. It’s so dark now. We need to ask your brother to pick us up as soon as possible.”
