What Separates Me and You

Chapter 326 As Expected of Chairman Alvarez

Seth chuckled before tossing the binoculars back to Conrad.

The latter caught the binoculars while glaring back at Seth.

“Since you don’t care about them, why did you board the cruise with Chairman Alvarez in the first place?”

“Just for fun.”

Conrad scowled, not wanting to waste his breath on Seth. He raised the binoculars to his eyes again and kept his eyes peeled on the island.

Even though he had very little hope that this detour would turn out nicely, the assistant didn’t

want to miss out on a chance to locate the survivors.

As the helicopter approached the island from above, Conrad could start to see the island in full detail. He even saw the sandy beach as well as the yacht, which was marooned on the shore.

Waves of excitement almost swept Conrad off his feet when he recognized the white yacht. He was so emotional that he couldn’t help but tremble violently.

“They are there! I see the yacht! Hurry up and land on the island now!”

Seth’s expression froze on his face. He turned to glance at Conrad before snatching the binoculars from his hands once again. Naturally, he was able to spot the yacht as well.

He narrowed his eyes, his smile completely vanishing into thin air. A grave look was quick to appear on his face at that time.

The helicopter started its slow descent once it was right above the island. Seth and Conrad could see the man standing there when it got close to the sandy shores.

Lewis was still wearing the trench coat he was clad in before his disappearance. The winds conjured by the helicopter’s spinning blades caused the hem of the coat to flap violently. The man stood there quietly, as though he was an elegant statue.

Elation washed over Conrad’s senses as he hopped off the helicopter the moment it landed properly. He dashed toward his boss, almost tripping over his own feet several times during the process.

“Chairman Alvarez!”

The assistant stopped in front of Lewis, studying every inch of the latter’s face, which was bathed in the warm golden rays of the setting sun.

Tears brimming, he commented, “I’m extremely relieved to see you safe and sound! You’re so thin-”

Lewis shot him a cold look before turning to look at Seth. “What’s with the delay?”

Conrad explained, “How on earth did you get so far? You’ve almost left the domestic waters! We spent the past half a month searching the waters around the scene of the accident, but we couldn’t find you and Madam even after searching a few islands!”
