“Darryl!” When the storm came, Stella yelled for Darryl from the other boat; a worried expression had spread across her delicate face. “Hide in the cabin. Hurry! Grab onto something, and don’t come out! The storm is coming…”
Stella had grown up on Ice Fire Island since she was a child, so she was accustomed to the storms.
“Got it!” Darryl responded loudly. “Take care of yourself.”
As soon as he said that, the torrential rain got even heavier. A gust of wind carried the waves toward the boat. The roaring wind drowned Darryl’s voice.
The sky had gotten darker, and it was almost impossible for them to see anything with the rain.
The boat spun and rolled frantically in that violent turbulence in the rough sea.
Was that the power of a sea storm? Darryl grasped the bolt of the cabin door tightly as he looked at the environmental hazard outside. He felt emotional.
Darryl’s home was in Donghai City. He had grown up by the seaside, but that was his first time witnessing such a terrifying storm.
“Argh!”
Yvette and the Empress were in the cabin; they were in a panic. Yvette could barely maintain her composure, and the Empress continued to scream in fear. Even though she was the Empress, the perfect image of a mother of the continent, she had lived in the palace for as long as she could remember. She had never experienced such a storm before that.
“Yvette, hold on to your mother tightly and don’t panic. We’ll be fine.” Darryl gritted his teeth as he clutched the door frame tightly. He placed himself at the entrance of the cabin as if to block the rain and waves.
As long as he stood guard at the cabin entrance, Yvette and the Empress would not fall into the water no matter how the boat rocked.
Yvette nodded at Darryl before she took the Empress into her arms.
She was also panicked, but she was not afraid if Darryl were with her.
After he made sure that the two women were okay, he sighed in relief. Then, he turned to look at Stell to see if she was okay.
Oh, no!
Darryl suddenly cried out loud in his mind.
He could only see the choppy sea and the deluge of rain that hit the water like the end of the world had arrived, but there were no signs of Stella’s boat.
The storm must have drifted their boat in another direction.
