Jasper leaned in, eager to hear any updates Bran might have about the Ocean Point Naval Station. When Bran didn't volunteer any information, Jasper broke the silence. "So, what's new at the base since we left?"
Bran looked momentarily caught off guard. "It's been good. Not long after you guys left, they started reclaiming land for new islands. I even ran into Dr. Collin at the clinic one time, and he asked about you two."
"Everyone at the base valued you both highly. Director Jiang often sighed and said, 'Either they've run into pirates or their sub malfunctioned. It's probably more bad luck than good-seems like the best always go first."
Jasper's gaze grew distant. "Do you believe that?"
Bran, slouched against the wall with a shoe in hand, had a tired yet roguish air about him. "Bro-in-law, can I still come by for a meal when I'm hungry?"
"Of course, if you're hungry, come on over."
With Jasper's promise, Bran waved casually and left.
After closing the gate, Jasper returned inside, thinking about their plans. "The least suspicious way to build a greenhouse is to go scavenging."
Stella had considered this too. "People have scoured this area for hundreds of miles."
"There's one place that's hardly been searched."
Stella's eyes lit up. "The ocean."
Survivors lacked tools, and the military was constrained by fuel shortages. A ghost ship laden with supplies appearing on the vast ocean wouldn't be too far-fetched, would it?
They wouldn't be stealing from the military, and with Daniel's status, who'd dare question or investigate her?
They needed to act fast, setting sail tomorrow.
After discussing the pressing matters, Stella brought up Bran, unsure of his
