Jefferson wiped her tears away and breathed, “Belle, we’ll stay here, okay? Keep me company here.”

Rayna parted her lips to say something as she looked at the man’s gentle gaze, but when she thought about the price he had paid and the limited lifespan he had, she found herself at a loss for words. All she could do was let her tears fall in silence.

Lifting her hand, she placed it on top of Jefferson’s and nodded. As she forced her tears to stop, she said, “Okay. I’ll stay here with you.”

Hearing that made Jefferson’s eyes light up.

Other than not allowing Rayna to use her phone, Jefferson did everything she wanted.

Every day, a helicopter would send fresh food over. Jefferson would make different kinds of dishes every day, fearing that she would be sick of a specific cuisine. Sometimes, he would even get his men to send food from other cooks.

When the weather was fine, he would put on a sunhat for Rayna, and they would take a stroll by the beach. Sometimes, he would take the camera and dive into the ocean to capture the beauty of the underwater world for her to see. He would also catch a lobster for their meals.

Every two weeks, two obstetricians would come via helicopter to give Rayna and her babies a checkup.

At night, Jefferson would stay by Rayna’s side. Before she slept, he would play the piano for her and tuck her in.

Rayna almost lost track of the time in the peaceful days on the island.

However, sometimes, when she looked at Jefferson’s side profile, the face of another man would form in her head. She would wonder whether he was looking for her after her long disappearance and whether she was doing the right thing.

There were times when Rayna was frustrated too. She would think about persuading Jefferson into taking her back by promising him she would never leave him.

Nonetheless, every time she thought about the things he had done for her, she would feel terrible, and she would not be able to raise the topic at all.

She owed him too much, and she did not know how she could even start repaying him.
