Chapter 167

Grace fumbled her way over, and by the moonlight streaming through the ventilation port, she could see it was a

blanket.

It was covered with a thick layer of grime, so blackened that its original color was indistinguishable, and it emitted a nauseating stench–clearly unwashed for ages.

“Urgh-”

Grace retched involuntarily.

She had already vomited several times during the day from seasickness.

Having had nothing to eat, her stomach contained only acid, and her dry heaving produced nothing.

Feeling intensely nauseated, she kicked the blanket away in disgust.

She had previously lived a life of luxury in the Blackwood household. When had she ever endured such hardship?

Even when her mother was still alive and she was just a housekeeper’s daughter, she had never suffered like this.

Grace hugged her knees and began to sob quietly.

Her soft cries were drowned out by the sound of the waves.

The winter temperature was already low, and being at sea made the nights even colder.

She shivered violently, her lips turning purplish–blue, as if all the blood in her body was about to freeze.

Finally, she picked up that filthy, stinking blanket.

To survive, Grace had no choice but to wrap herself in the foul–smelling covering.

After a bumpy journey, Grace finally arrived in Britain.

Having been adrift for several days, unable to eat or sleep properly, she had lost considerable weight. She hadn’t bathed for days and emitted a foul odor.

Even the men who came to drag her off the ship couldn’t help but feel disgusted.

“Bloody hell! She absolutely reeks!”

“Urgh-”
