Regret Came Too Late

Grace had no signal on her phone, so she couldn't contact anyone at the moment. She also didn't know when the storm would pass, but it shouldn't take more than a week at most.

She couldn't do anything right now besides changing her wet clothes. It was a good thing that there were extra bed sheets and covers in the cabinet, and the bed had also been neatly made with a clean blanket.

She sneezed and hunched her shoulders against the cold.

After taking off her wet clothes, she went for a hot shower. She finally started to feel warm and comfortable.

After that, she lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the storm outside. She decided to get some rest and see what things looked like after she woke up.

However, her phone suddenly rang after some time.

Grace was surprised to see she had a signal on her phone. She quickly got up from bed and answered the call. It was Tim calling.

The signal wasn't stable, so she didn't understand what he had just said. She could only hear one sentence-"Mr. Henderson went to the island by himself to look for you."

Grace thought she had heard it wrong and quickly confirmed with him again. "Mr. Bennett, are you kidding me? You let Mr. Henderson go out on his own in this kind of weather? His legs are still recovering!"
