The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 268

The South Pole?!

Nicole's heart sank fiercely.

It was not certain if that explorer friend of his would survive or not, let alone expect him to come and save them.

That was just wishful thinking!

So, when all was said and done, there was still no hope?

Nicole turned pale. Nathaniel did his own thing and took out a lighter from his bag before beginning to boil water.

"Then... Can you contact the outside world?"

Nathaniel gave her a sincere look that dispelled all her hopes.

"No."

"Haven't you thought about how to leave this place?!"

"I have. I thought that a fool would come here so that when someone comes to her rescue, they can take me along as well! In any case, I'm almost done with the content I'm looking for."

Nicole was speechless.

'Is he saying that I'm a fool?!'

This knowledge completely dispelled her joy. What a tragedy!

Nathaniel skillfully distilled the seawater, then proceeded to distill the already-distilled seawater. After repeating this process of distillation several times, he finally lowered his head to taste it. He took a sip and handed the rest to Nicole.

"Drink up! You haven't had water for several days, right?"

Nicole took it. "I haven't had anything to drink since coming here..."

She still remembered that the last thing she drank before coming here was a glass of rose handed to her b y the flight attendant.

Nicole chugged the distilled water in a few gulps and looked at Nathaniel bashfully.

"There's no more..." She said sheepishly.

"Next time then..."

It was because she only brought a small amount of seawater back!

Not much was left after distillation!

"Did you have enough?"

Nicole clearly saw that he did not drink much.

Nathaniel looked at her with raised eyebrows and

smiled. "For explorers like us, we can still live in the absence of freshwater and tools.”

In extreme conditions, even urine could be a lifesaver.

However, looking at Nicole’s delicate appearance, it seemed like she would rather die than rely on that to preserve her life.

"Have you been disguising yourself as an indigenous person the entire time you're here?"

Nicole could not help but ask. She did not understand why those indigenous people wanted to roast her but did not do the same to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel saw through her thoughts and nodded.
