"We've been gone from the ceremony for a while now. You should head back too," Rosalynn told Evan.
His face was filled with disappointment.
His attention was then drawn to something happening on the ocean.
"Is there a boat heading for the dock at this hour?" he asked.
Rosalynn and Jaime instinctively turned their gaze.
"Maybe the boat is here to help with the move?" Jaime speculated, "I heard from the islanders that they're all leaving today, and many have rented boats to come over, but isn't it a bit early?"
Overhearing their conversation, Felix chimed in, "What's wrong with being early? The sooner these folks are whisked away, the sooner we can start construction on the island."
"Good point," Jaime conceded.
As they were talking, the boat had slowly docked.
The security on the island was tight, so Rosalynn wasn't worried about any trouble.
She then diverted her attention.
She was starting to feel tired, and her eyes were uncomfortable.
After a while, Jaime, under Evan's concerned gaze, carefully administered medication for Rosalynn and helped her put on an eye patch.
"Your eyes are a bit red, but there's no inflammation. Once the islanders are all gone, you should head back too. Sean can handle the rest!"
"Alright," Rosalynn replied, "You guys should get some sleep too, don't bother keeping me company."
Just as they were about to leave, suddenly, there were sounds of argument from outside.
"Who could it be, showing up this late?" Jaime frowned.
Rosalynn listened carefully, "Sounds like it's McGill's wife."
"McGill's wife?" Jaime had a good impression of he. She was a very cheerful person.
Felix immediately contacted the front gate through the radio.
