Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 141

Chapter 141 Island Life

She forced a smile. "This is good enough."

In just half a day, Ethan had transformed completely. He took off his branded clothes and wore the clothes of Sherri's child, which had been worn by countless children and patched up multiple times.

But at least they were thick and warm.

Ethan didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and he followed Avery like a shadow.

Occasionally, he would be curious and want to chase after cats or pull at the roadside grass. Everything here seemed novel to him.

Avery had initially boarded the ship with a determination to die, but in just half a day, she had already adapted to the island life.

There was no advanced technology like in the city, but it was much cleaner.

In the sea breeze, she held Ethan in her arms. For a moment, she wanted to settle down there.

But she was fully aware that, even though this small island was not marked on any maps, it would only be a matter of time before it was found.

Sooner or later, Jacob would reach this place.

There were only dozens of households on the island, and the residents were all simple and honest.

Carl told her that they kidnapped Ethan for ransom so that they could enjoy their lives on the island.

The children here had never attended school and spent their whole lives fishing at sea. If they fell ill, they could only resign themselves to fate. Several villagers had died in agony at the hospital gate because they couldn't afford medical treatment.

Avery found it ironic. Layla spent 15 million dollars celebrating Ethan's birthday, while these island children drooled over the stolen cake from the kitchen. Each of them took a small bite and licked their lips to savor it.

What was good and evil?
