Chapter 231 Threat On The Island
- Santiago looked at Isabella, her face filled with terror, but he could do nothing. It was either leave or be caught, so he didn't want to lie to his daughter. He also observed his grandchildren, clinging to their mother's legs, looking at all the strange guards who had arrived with fear in their eyes. Marta watched him very seriously, as if expecting an explanation for this sudden change, for indeed the sea was very dangerous during the storm, especially in those small yachts they had used to come to the island.
- —Because we're in terrible danger here. That's why Rodrigo, the son of Dad's head of security, came,” he confessed, watching as their eyes widened. “Don't be frightened. The yacht Rodrigo brought is a bit larger than ours, and Dad will catch up with us in the big one. Come on, do as I ask. We need to leave here as soon as possible, or it'll be too late. Stop wasting time and put on very warm clothes for the children and yourselves. Something that will protect you from the cold and water.”
- He explained very seriously, because he truly feared that the yachts Rodrigo had seen on their way might already be reaching the island to attack them. He regretted coming to the island with them; he hadn't considered that his wife knew perfectly well where it was and that it was his preferred hiding place when he wanted to relax from his problems. How could he have been so careless and not think of that?
