Chapter 645 - 669: Straw Sandal Glory
Though there was a beauty on either side, James Brown wasn’t in the mood at the moment. Both Emily Lopez and Lucy Campbell felt the same; they were already exhausted, and as soon as they closed their eyes, they fell asleep.
James soon fell asleep too. At this moment, he wasn’t worried about Sophia; he had already seen that this woman wanted a real competition with him, otherwise, she would have had many opportunities to attack him, but she never did.
It wasn’t until the next day, when the sun was high in the sky, that James woke up, while Emily and Lucy were still asleep. Both were lying on their sides, snuggled beside him, their arms draped over his chest. Their legs were intertwined with his, and even Sarah was behind, hugging Emily with her arm on him.
The scene was quite provocative; if a photo were published online, it would certainly evoke envy, jealousy, and hatred from countless men.
Lifting his head slightly, James saw Sophia sleeping not far on the beach. As soon as he moved, Sophia woke up with an alertness characteristic of a skilled person.
Sophia was the first to sit up, saw the sensuous posture of James and the others, snorted, and then stood up and left.
James didn’t pay attention to her but instead called Emily and the others up, as he wanted to relieve himself and didn’t feel comfortable leaving them to continue sleeping, so he had to wake them up.
Standing up and looking around, James pointed at a large rock not far from the shore and said, "Let’s go there to freshen up. I’ll be on this side, and you can be on the other. This way, I won’t worry about any issues."
Emily and Lucy both nodded. It’s a necessary routine to freshen up in the morning, regardless of how beautiful one might be. Sarah was a bit embarrassed, recalling the time when she sprained her foot, and James carried her to the restroom. The memory was sweet, alleviating her embarrassment.
After freshening up, everyone gathered together again, and Lucy said, "James, what do we do now?"
James was looking around and said, "We don’t know how far it is from where the ship sank, but I estimate that we’ve drifted really far. It’s tough for rescuers to find us, so our main focus now is survival on this island."
Emily chuckled and said, "That’s great! We can have a modern-day Robinson Crusoe experience."
