Chapter 198: Return Safely

Zola was both physically and mentally exhausted. She hadn’t eaten in an entire day.
Suddenly, the instrument in her hand started beeping. She woke up instantly.
“There’s a signal, there’s a signal…”
She flew out of the house. Seeing her, Rasfa ran over and grabbed her. “Zola, what are you doing?”
“Father, Manny’s watch has a signal. She’s back!”
Beep, beep, beep.
Rasfa took the instrument suspiciously. There was an arrow on the screen. It seemed to be along the coast, which made him wonder if Manny had been found.
“Huh? It changed direction.” Rasfa frowned again. If Manny was found, shouldn’t she come back directly from the pier?
“It’s coming from that side.” He couldn’t understand. He was worried that Manny might have been eaten by a giant sea creature.
“I think I hear her voice!” Zola grew more excited. She kept looking at the coastline.
Suddenly, she saw a black dot coming from that direction. Clenching her fists, she kept her eyes trained on it.
Rasfa’s eyesight wasn’t good, so he couldn’t see clearly, but Zola was already running onto the beach in excitement.
Rasfa finally saw two people standing on the sea. It was Chen Zhao and Manny who’d been missing for a day, but…why were they standing on the water?
“Mom…Mom…” Manny saw Zola on the beach. She jumped up and down on Amon, waving.
However, Amon stopped after taking Chen Zhao and Manny about 100 meters from the coast. After that, the water would be too shallow and he could be stranded.
“Manny, your foot doesn’t hurt anymore?” Chen Zhao looked at the bouncing girl.
“It’s not swollen anymore.” Manny was overjoyed.
When one had hope, all fatigue would disappear. Earlier, Manny had faced despair and her body had broken down. Now, her energy had completely recovered. She hadn’t even drunk water in more than 16 hours.
Or…Amon was messing with her!
It was like how Raymond could suck away someone’s lust while also give it to them.
Paul and two servants rowed a small boat over to Chen Zhao and Manny. When they saw the big thing under the water, they were all frightened.
“Chen, what will happen to Amon?” Manny got onto the boat and looked at Amon longingly.
“He’ll stay here for now,” Chen Zhao said.
He couldn’t bring Amon back even if he wanted. He had no room. It was better to toss him at Rasfa’s place.
“Ah, you want to keep it with Grandpa? Then I’m going to move in with him.”
“Chen, get on.” Paul reached over for Chen Zhao.
“Bring Manny back first. I’ll swim over later.”
“Okay.” Paul nodded.
A while later, Chen Zhao jumped into the water and swam to land. Amon leapt up so everyone on land saw his huge figure.
After getting to land, Chen Zhao wiped the water from his face. Zola let go of Manny in her arms. She ran to Chen Zhao and slapped him without another word. The next moment, she grabbed him and got onto her tiptoes to kiss him passionately.
“Chen, thank you for saving Manny.”
“Mom, Chen says he wants to raise Amon here. I’m going to move in so I can play with Amon every day.”
“Amon?”
“That killer whale. It saved me and Chen and brought us back.”
“You two rode on a killer whale’s back?” Zola looked at Chen Zhao in shock.
Chen Zhao nodded. “We were lucky to meet this big guy in the sea. It is really smart, but I think it got lost from its family and is wandering by itself. I hope it can stay here. Don’t worry, it won’t attack.”
“Of course. I’m sure my father will welcome it. Oh, its name is Amon?”
“Yes.”
Rasfa walked over. “Rasfa, I’m sorry,” Chen Zhao apologized. “Your yacht is gone.”
“No problem. A yacht is nothing compared to Manny’s life. Plus, I need to pay tens of thousands every year in management and stopping fees to keep it in the pier. Even if it didn’t run into a storm, I’ll still send it to the landfill in a few years.”
He patted Chen Zhao’s shoulder and continued, “Can I ride that killer whale? I’ve never done it before.”
“Well, it’s staying in your place. You can ride it whenever you want.”
“I need you to be with me. Without you, I’m too scared.”
“You old b*stard who’s afraid of death…”
Before leaving, Chen Zhao advised Zola on how to treat Manny. She may look energetic now, but yesterday’s event had caused quite some damage to her body.
…
“Fali, stop crying.”
“Yeah, Fali. It’s not your fault.”
Sienna and Chris were both comforting Fali, but her tears flowed down without stopping.
“Fali, Chen will be fine,” David said. “Don’t forget that he’s not an average guy. Ask Sienna if you don’t believe me.”
“Yeah. Fali, Chen will come back safely.” Sienna wasn’t confident either.
She was a spiritualist herself, so she was clear that normal people and spiritualists weren’t much different when faced with a storm. Humans couldn’t go up against nature. Sienna felt that Chen Zhao might be dead.
Just then, they heard the door open. Everyone in the room froze.
Fali stood up immediately, looking at the door.
“Hey, Sienna, David, Chris, how come you’re all here?” Chen Zhao walked in.
Fali rushed toward him and planted a kiss on Chen Zhao’s lips.
Chen Zhao was stunned. What was happening?
“Fali, wait… What happened?” Chen Zhao pushed Fali away.
Her kiss was too strong. Chen Zhao even wondered if his lips were bruised from the impact. Plus, Fali clearly didn’t have any experience.
Chen Zhao suspected that Fali’s kissing techniques were copied from movies.
“Nothing.” Fali suddenly let go of Chen Zhao and returned to the sofa.
Sienna and Chris were both dazed while David looked at Chen Zhao with envy. “Chen, I think I should go face a storm too. Then maybe Sienna and Chris will welcome me like that too when I get home.”
Sienna smiled at Fali. “Fali, can you explain what that kiss meant?”
Fali looked up at Chen Zhao. “Chen, let’s date.”
“Huh?”
“You don’t want to?”
Chen Zhao really wasn’t prepared. Looking at Fali’s dark expression, Chen Zhao slapped himself. “I want to.”
