Julian finally relaxed upon hearing that she was safe. "Alright, I'll let Grandpa know. Where are you now? I'll come to pick you up." He once again pressed Aurora for her location.

"I don't know where I am," she replied.

"Then pass the phone to someone nearby. I'll ask them. Little Bunny, do you know how worried I've been these past days? I've nearly turned the ocean upside down looking for you. As long as you're safe, that's all that matters."

"Julian, I... I'm still at sea. I just called to let you know I'm fine. The baby is fine too. In a few days, when we dock, I'll go to a hospital for a check-up. So don't worry about us. It's not convenient to talk right now, so I'll hang up first."

Aurora hung up as planned, despite the reluctance in her heart. The more she spoke to him, the more unwilling she felt to let go.

"Aurora, don't hang up!"

"Julian, I love you and always will." Aurora still ended the call. This was part of her agreement with Mrs. Woolf.

But those last two sentences carried deeper meaning. She knew Julian was resourceful and might be able to trace her location. However, merely knowing her current position wouldn't help, as the ship would soon set sail again. That was why she mentioned going to the hospital in a few days.

From Justin's attitude toward her, she was confident that if she requested to go ashore for a check-up, he wouldn't refuse. She could only hope Julian would find her in time.

Her words-"I will always love you"-were also meant to reassure him that she had not been harmed and that he needn't worry. Julian was smart enough to understand that she was fine, just unable to leave the ship.

"Mrs. Woolf, I didn't tell him where I am," Aurora said softly.

"Good. Now can you give up hope?"
