What Separates Me and You

Chapter 321 Do You Know What to Do

The fish Josephine was eating contained minimal bones, allowing her to devour it swiftly. Before long, she had finished every last bite.

She even ate some of the vegetables on the iron plate. They tasted pretty decent, likely due to being boiled in seawater, which had imparted a general amount of natural saltiness to them.

Suddenly, Lewis suggested, “Let’s look for other water sources. We can’t drink seawater, after all.”

Josephine blinked in bewilderment, her gaze fixed on him.

He explained, “We’ll die if we drink too much seawater.”

It was a short and straightforward explanation. The young woman nodded immediately in

response.

Once they were done with lunch, Lewis propped himself with his makeshift cane and led Josephine on an expedition to look for freshwater sources.

They explored as many spots as they could, but they were unable to locate any water sources. Besides, Lewis’ current stamina was very limited, so he was forced to return to their base.

Nonetheless, Josephine managed to gather more vegetables during their exploration, rapidly filling up her crate with her bountiful finds.

The weather, which was sunny during the past few days, suddenly darkened rapidly. Thick, gray clouds covered the sky, looking as though they were about to sink into the ocean.

The atmosphere was eerily silent, seeing as the winds had died down.

It was a sign that a huge thunderstorm was coming.

Lewis sat in the cabin while gazing at the dark and gloomy sky outside, his expression now a mask of grimness.

“It’s about to rain heavily.”

Josephine leaned into his body while hugging his arm tightly. She was frightened by what was going to happen.

She heard the man next to her sigh lightly. “I hope the tides won’t rise.”

Should the tides rise, the couple wouldn’t have a place to hide from the upcoming storm. However, they could still hide inside the cabin if it was just a downpour.

The sky was dark throughout the entire afternoon. Gales started whipping across the island in the evening. They were so powerful that Josephine couldn’t even keep her eyes open.

Thanks to the gales, strong currents were blown toward the sandy shore, some of them crashing into the walls of the yacht. As a result, some of the water ended up getting splashed onto the deck and trickled into the cabin.

Far from the shoreline, the woods began to reverberate with loud rustling sounds as the trees. swayed and bent under the forceful gusts of wind.

What followed suit was loud pitter-patters of raindrops landing on everything, including the yacht. Flashes of lightning could be seen lighting up the dark surface of the sea.

Poor Josephine was so frightened that she kept pushing her way into Lewis’ arms even more.

The latter wrapped his arms around her comfortingly, murmuring, “Don’t be afraid. The rain. will likely pass soon.”
