"Do you guys need a drone? I can lend you one, so you can go and check out the sea from time to time!" Jaime continued, his generosity making quite an impression.
His intentions were clear as day, to help the islanders get back on track, keep out of the dispute between the local people and Rosalynn, and cut off their internet dependency that had grown over time.
"Really? That's awesome!" A male volunteer was ecstatic.
He had been eyeing those drones for a while.
He heard that they were custom-made and even money couldn't buy them.
"Of course, we're all here to protect the coral, right? Even though the experts haven't confirmed if these corals belong to endangered species, we still need everyone to unite and protect them, right?"
"Yes, the marine botanist only visited once and never contacted us again. We've been on this island for so long, it'd be a total waste if those corals aren't endangered species," someone complained.
"Do you think the validation process is that quick? The botanist said there's a 99% chance that these corals are endangered. He said he is going back to consult other authorities for the final assessment. It's only been a few days, everyone needs to chill!"
"Right, whether they're endangered or not, we should be prepared to protect them as if they were!" Jaime nodded emphatically. "Besides, even if these corals turn out not to be endangered, you shouldn't feel like this was a waste of time. Gathering here on this beautiful island, us good folks from all over the world, that in itself is a wonderful experience!"
Everyone clapped. Mike suppressed the urge to praise Jaime.
He suddenly remembered when Jaime arrived on the island, looking ragged and defeated. When he saw Gabriella, he fell to his knees and cried, saying his grandpa dead.
Back then, Jaime didn't have the gift of gab he has now.
But now, his eloquence was remarkable, he could even hold his own in debates.
In short, he was freaking awesome!
The more, the merrier.
