847 Chapter 846

When Keira regained consciousness, she was already aboard the cruise ship.

The moment she opened her eyes, she realized she was in her own cabin. The sound of the wind gusted outside. Jolting upright, her first instinct was to grab her phone.

By all accounts, five days should have passed, and her phone ought to be out of battery. But when she powered it on, the display showed a battery level of 80%.

This could only mean one thing—someone had brought her back to the ship yesterday and even charged her phone.

No, wait...

Keira stared at her phone. Her social media accounts, even her private feed, had posts indicating she was still on the cruise.

There were even daily meal deliveries placed in her cabin.

This meant someone had been impersonating her the moment she disappeared.

The South family's meticulousness was truly unparalleled. Even in the middle of the ocean, they'd gone out of their way to make sure no one noticed her absence by finding someone to play her role.

While she mulled over the situation, her phone buzzed with an incoming video call.

In the middle of the ocean, regular signals were nonexistent; only satellite signals worked. Keira accepted the call, and Lewis Horton's face appeared on the screen.

In just a week, Lewis seemed to have lost some weight. The instant he saw Keira, his tense expression softened with visible relief.
