Chapter 344: The Fountain of Youth (1)
Since she had decided to keep a low profile, Everly did nothing unnecessary for the rest of her time and settled down peacefully on North Eleuthera Island.
Not only Everly herself, but also the temporarily disfigured Kesuye obediently lay low in the waters surrounding the island, no longer going after Grant and causing him trouble.
He was even reluctant to show his face in front of Everly, because he thought he was too ugly.
Fortunately, the healing suppression caused by the thorns was not permanent. As time passed, the force preventing the wounds from healing gradually weakened. After resting properly for three days, most of Kesuye’s injuries had healed, and he finally dared to meet Everly again.
Since Kesuye wasn’t wandering around causing trouble and no one reported any ships being attacked or crew members going missing, the rumors about a killer whale around the island soon died down without anything coming of them.
Before long, December 5 arrived.
That afternoon, Everly made one final trip to stock up on supplies on the island, then drove her yacht away from the island. Late that night, she anchored the yacht in an empty stretch of sea far from any signs of human habitation.
She stood on the deck, waiting for a long time as the night breeze blew around her. Finally, the clouds cleared, and a crescent moon appeared in the sky.
The time had come.
