Chapter 160
Staying on this island, her mood would be much better.
No matter the reason, she didn’t want to leave for now.
She opened her eyes and watched as the sky turned from black to white. The horizon was tinged with a pale light, and Aveline wandered around the Island.
Everyone treated her kindly, warmly inviting her to their homes for breakfast and thanking her for the supplies she had brought.
Tyler, who arrived earlier than her, sat by the seaside, using the art supplies she had bought to paint.
The handsome young boy’s face was filled with excitement. “Miss, does it look good?”
Although he had never received formal training in painting, he possessed a talent that others doesn’t have. Even black and white sketches were impressive enough, and adding colors made them even more vibrant.
Aveline nodded with satisfaction. “You paint beautifully.”
If he could receive more knowledge and training with such talent, he would surely achieve great things in the future.
“It’s all thanks to your teaching, Miss. Will you stay on the island forever?” Tyler’s eyes sparkled with a captivating light.
“Yes” Aveline’s voice sounded obscure, she didn’t even know how long she could stay.
She didn’t know whether Alexander or death would come first.
“Miss, you don’t look well. You’ve been gloomy these past few days. Are you worried about Jamie?”
“He can eat and sleep well. Being taken care of by a group of people every day, there’s nothing to worry about.”
As the following days passed by peacefully, there were no suspicious people coming to the island. Aveline gradually relaxed her guard.
This sea area was vast, and this small island, which wasn’t even marked on the map, was unknown to anyone except the indigenous people. Even if they used drones for surveillance, the strong winds and heavy snow made it inconvenient for long–distance flights in such harsh weather.
At least it wouldn’t be an overnight task for Alexander to find her.
A smile returned to Aveline’s face. She had already made her plans. Once she endured Alexander’s patience, the patience of the mastermind behind the scenes would also run out.
Aveline found a sense of self–existence here. Every day, she taught the children how to read, taught Tyler how to paint, and occasionally, she would learn how to weave shoes with Amelia on sunny days.
Owen would go fishing with the villagers, sometimes not returning for several days, but each time he returned, it was always with a full catch.
As the sun set, everyone enjoyed the joy of a bountiful harvest. However, Aveline noticed that Owen’s hand was not right.
“Are you injured?”
Owen instinctively hid his hand behind his back and answered in a low voice, “It’s nothing.”
She pulled his hand out and discovered a large wound in his palm, with fresh blood trickling down.
Under Aveline’s gaze, he felt a bit embarrassed and turned his face away, explaining, “It’s just a small injury from cutting my hand while pulling up a big fish.”
“Such a big wound, how can it be a small injury?”

Aveline averted her gaze lightly, she didn’t know Owen’s background, just like the people on the island didnt know above his past
Lost in her thoughts, Aveling was started when Owen grabbed her hand. “What are you doing?”
“As a token of gratitude, I’ll give you a gift”
