Chapter 318 Karl Finally Showed Up
At this time of the year, the water in the Blue River was not warm. It was cold.
The sun was setting and it was getting dark. It wasn’t a good idea to remain in the water. Hailey looked at the people who were waiting for rescue on the wings and shivering with cold. She couldn’t help but frown.
“Mr. Yerkes, when will the rescue team probably arrive?”
Saul shook his head with a sober face. “I don’t know. When the flight altitude is less than 100 meters, the radar signal will disappear completely, and the control tower won’t find any traces about the plane.”
Hearing that, the passengers sitting on the wings were once again in a panic.
“What? The control tower can’t find us? What are we going to do then?”
“Yeah, I thought we were waiting for a rescue team. So what are we waiting for if the rescue team doesn’t come? For death?”
“Hiss… it’s so cold. I didn’t die on the plane, but I’m going to freeze to death here!”
Once again, the passengers started to talk and complain. The crew had just escaped death and they were so cold that they had no energy left to reassure the passengers.
Hailey didn’t bother to reassure them. She understood that they were scared and panic-stricken. All people were
afraid of death, weren’t they?
However, faced with disaster, fright and panic could not solve any problem.
The only solution was to face up to the challenge.
Hailey and Saul looked around and their eyes met.
“Mr. Yerkes, what are you waiting for?” she asked bluntly.
Saul said, “There are often cruise ships around here.”
Hailey’s eyes lit up. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Yes, a cruise ship could take them to land, where they would find signals and ask the rescue services for help.
However, how could they get a cruise ship to come here?
Hailey took a look around and fixed her eyes on a small island not far away.
She suddenly called out to Saul. “Mr. Yerkes.”
Saul looked up at her.
Hailey asked, “Have you ever been trained for survival in the wilderness when you were in the army?”
Saul raises his eyebrows. “Why don’t you just tell me what you want to do?”
Ten minutes later, Hailey swam to the island with Saul, Aleft, and Aright.
Some passengers who were good swimmers came along with them voluntarily to see if there was anything they
could do to help.
However, they were completely amazed by the scenery on the island.
It looked like a bare island from out there, but they found that it was not bare at all when they were on it.
Not only was there a luxuriously decorated glass-fronted mansion, but there was also an outdoor swimming pool, a beach, lounge chairs, maple trees, and a beautiful flower bed that was actually planted with… blue
roses!
“OMG! Is this heaven? Am I already dead?”
“This is so beautiful! Isn’t it too extravagant to build a villa on the island?”
The passengers let out their admiration.
Hailey, however, felt that the scenery in front of her was very familiar, but at this moment, she had no time to
enjoy the view, because she was focused on how to get in touch with the outside world.
“Wait!”
Saul suddenly stopped and frowned slightly, saying, “Some men are coming.”
“What men?”
Soon, a group of armed bodyguards in black coats emerged from all directions. Saul pulled Hailey behind him to protect her.
He was even faster than Aleft and Aright.
Hailey was stunned as she watched the tall man from behind.
Saul held up his hands and explained the situation to the black-clad bodyguards in a calm and steady tone,
asking for their help.
Hearing his words, the bodyguards called someone on a satellite phone, seeming to ask for permission. When they got a reply, they nodded and agreed to help.
There weren’t only satellite phones but also ships on the island!
Hailey truly felt that they had come to the right place.
Soon, the injured passengers were taken to the island first. Hailey asked other passengers, “I’m a doctor. Have
any of you been trained in medical aid or nursing?”
“Yes, I’m a doctor too!”
“I’m a nurse.”
“I’ve been trained in nursing. I can help.”
부
Hailey formed a medical team on the spot to help the injured passengers. Luckily, they just suffered minor injuries, which required simple bandaging and treatment without any major surgery.
A middle-aged woman sprained her arm and Hailey rubbed it for her. She looked at Hailey with sincere
admiration.
“Girl, you are so young. How come you know so much? Not only do you speak multiple languages, but you can
also swim and practise medicine. That slap on the plane was so cool!”
Hailey smiled lightly. “Skills will never be a burden in the world.”
Saul was contacting relevant agencies on a satellite phone. When he heard what Hailey said, his light gray eyes flickered and his lips curved.
When the airline and rescue services received the message, they immediately launched an air-sea rescue
operation.
Cruise ships arrived, followed by navy ships and firefighters. It was instantly covered. The news and live images of Flight Y1106’s rescue soon spread across the country and abroad.
Passengers were taken away one after another, but Hailey and the crew remained until the end.
The crew admired Hailey and thanked her repeatedly. “Thank you. You helped us a lot.”
Hailey was grateful for her escape from death.
“You’re welcome. I was just doing my part. We were saved because of your professionalism…”
As they were thanking each other, a yacht came through the wind and waves, causing splashes all the way. No, not a yacht, but a dozen.
A fleet of yachts raced over the sea at sunset. It was so impressive that the rescue teams were shocked and
looked over there.
The yachts dashed over and stopped by the island.
A tall figure came off the leading yacht.
It was a man.
A gentleman.
He was dressed in a typical Yardeenese style of dark gray suit, vest and overcoat, looking reserved, romantic, ascetic, and dangerous.
As night fell, he came through the cold wind and the darkness of the night. He was obviously striding in a hurry. but when he saw a figure not far away, he stopped in his tracks and slowly lit a cigar.
The stewardesses were all fascinated by the scene.
Their hearts fluttered as they watched the handsome gentleman take a drag on the cigar and blow out the
smoke.
However, his aura was so powerful. They didn’t know who he was and they didn’t dare to approach him at all.
“Karl!”
A crisp voice suddenly rang in their ears.
The stewardesses watched as Hailey, who had been calm and collected, ran toward the man like the wind.
Then, she jumped into his arms, hanging on to him like a baby
Smelling the familiar scent, Hailey felt a lump in her throat All the fears and emotions after escaping from death came over her at the same time, so she was overwhelmed.
She couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Karl was stunned.
It was getting darker and darker.
