Chapter 1149: Dove and Doreen
At the same time, on the boat heading to Pierson Island, Finn rose from his spot to approach the captain.
"Can we get there a little faster?" Finn asked the person in charge. "We really need to get there quickly."
The captain sighed. "But, sir, we’re already at the fastest speed we can go."
"Then how long will it take to get there?"
"About ten to fifteen minutes."
"Fifteen minutes..." Finn shook his head, forcing a smile. "Alright, but if we can get there faster, I’d really appreciate it."
"I’ll do my best, sir."
With that, the captain refocused on his duties as Finn walked back a little. Finn’s eyes remained on the man, sighing heavily.
Fifteen minutes wasn’t that long, but considering the situation, he was growing increasingly worried.
’Of all the times for them to get in trouble...’ He clenched his teeth, bitterly swallowing a reality that only a few knew about. While the group tried to enjoy the boat ride, Finn’s anxiety continued to grow.
Penny hadn’t given him all the details. All he knew were a few keywords: abduction, syndicate, and rescue. Even so, those were enough to raise an alarm. Finn was still grateful that, even though he had briefly given Nina some details, she hadn’t panicked. Instead, she was helping him distract everyone.
Finn massaged his forehead as he stayed on the deck. He gripped the railing, glancing at the waters around them. Although he couldn’t see anything in the darkness, looking at something else might distract him, even if just for a moment.
