Love Is Fair by Kerri

Chapter 319 Rose Island

It was quiet on the island, except for the loud sound of a woman crying.

Karl just held his sister with one hand. He didn’t stop her, but let her cry out loud.

He patted her on the back with the other hand as if she were a kitten in a temper tantrum.

He kept doing that until she had enough of crying and stopped.

Hailey had cried so much with tears and mucus flowing. She lifted her head from Karl’s shoulder, looked at him with her big watery eyes, sobbed, and complained, “What took you so long to get here…”

Tears started to come out of her eyes again. Her little face was red and cute, and her shoulders were shaking slightly due to her sobbing.

“I thought I would never see you again…”

Seeing her aggrieved look, Karl chuckled and said slowly in his deep voice, “I’m here now, okay?”

Hailey sniffled and hmmed.

Then, she let go of Karl.

Karl put the cigar in his mouth, took off his suit coat to put it on Hailey, and raised his hand to wipe the tears. from under her eyes.

“Are you three years old, crying like that?”

Hailey glared at him with red eyes. “No, you are.”

She was talking back, so she had gotten over it.

With a smile in his blue eyes, Karl pulled out a starry blue square handkerchief from his coat pocket and handed

it to Hailey.

Hailey took it and wiped her tears and nose while she kept pouting slightly.

Karl pinched her little face. “Little crybaby.”

He handed the satellite phone to Hailey and said, “They were so worried about you at home. Call and tell them you’re safe now.”

Hailey obediently responded and took the satellite phone to call her fathers and brothers.
