Chapter 319
Compared to Lucas, Jordan is much calmer.
He said calmly with a calm face: “Madam, you should understand your own identity. Mr. Sterling stayed up for days and nights looking for you, and now you are standing in front of another man. Did you consider Mr. Sterling’s feelings?”
What didn’t Aveline know? But did she have any other choice?
“This young man is my brother next door. I begged him to take me away. Everything is my fault. Don’t touch him.”
Bryce smiled softly when he saw her anxious look, “Aveline, stop talking, it’s useless. I’m mentally prepared for this ending”
He took the risk and gambled on Aveline’s life.
He was only one step away from winning. He was just a bit unlucky, after all.
He thought that Alexander was only a powerful man in the business world. How could he dispatch the Coast Guard at will?
Alexander’s eyes fell directly on his face, and his voice was extremely cold: “You are very smart.”
“If you are not as good as Mr. Sterling, even God is not on your side, even though you are only one step away, you will be the loser in
the end.”
Bryce stood there calmly, like a jade bamboo, with an indescribable dignity.
Alexander admired this young man very much. He was brave and resourceful and also had ambitions that were beyond his age.
“It’s good to be ambitious, but not everyone can achieve their dreams.”
Alexander just commented, “Since ancient times, the winner is king.”
“I see.”
The Coast Guard ships also gradually disappeared, and soon there were only two ships left on the calm sea.
The lights on the deck were not bright, and falling on Alexander could not dispel the coldness on his body.
He looked straight at Aveline and opened his lips: “Come here.”
Aveline was very anxious. She didn’t want to make Alexander angry, but she didn’t want to move away from Bryce.
It was Lucas who coughed lightly: “Madam, you know it’s terrible for Mr. Sterling to be angry.”
Aveline slowly walked towards Alexander, looking at him with pleading eyes.
However, Alexander didn’t say a word and pulled Aveline into the cabin.
At that moment, Aveline’s body was wet from the slanting rain, and her hair was stained with a thin layer of water droplets.
Her body, which was still wet, looked like that of a mermaid that had just emerged from the water, making Alexander admire her.

She wanted to speak several times, but Alexander gave her no room to speak.
“Which is your room?”
Aveline pointed to the room with the open door. Alexander pulled her in, looked around, and snorted: “He is quite attentive.”
Alexander dove into the bathroom, and when he came out, he took a dry towel. He gently wiped the water drops on her head.
Aveline looked outside through the glass. Lucas had tied up Bryce.
A terrible thought flashed through Aveline’s mind, “You, what are you going to do to him?”
Alexander’s fingers were gentle, but he said the coldest words.
“It’s very simple, tie him with a rope and throw him into the sea. As long as he makes it out alive, I will let him go.”
It takes more than two hours to get to the port from where they were, and with the weather being so bad, it will take even longer.
Not to mention he would be cold in the water, ten Bryce wouldn’t be enough to eat if he was targeted by a shark.
Aveline was anxious and wanted to speak immediately.
Alexander caressed her face and said softly: “Aveline, do you know how I got here these days? When I thought of him hiding you, I wanted to cut him into pieces. Don’t beg for mercy, just say one more word and I’ll cut him open. You should know that sharks like blood.”
