Quinn looked puzzled. "Just a kiss will do?"


    "You can try."


    After a moment of contemtion, Quinn leaned in and nted a kiss on the man''s cheek.


    She then looked at him as if asking if that was enough.


    "Try the other side," He said.


    Quinn moved to the other side and gave him a peck. She then asked, "Is that okay?"


    Alexander''s dark eyes locked onto her face; and after a pause, he spoke wearily, "That''s fine." His voice was low, tinged with a hint of hoarseness and ambiguity.


    Of course, with Quinn''s current state of mind, she naturally couldn''t understand his underlying meaning.


    Thinking he was truly feeling better, she turned to get some food for him.


    After eating, the two of them idled away in the cabin, sitting together in silence, exuding a sense of peaceful tranquility.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    From her initial nervousness, Quinn gradually rxed. She would still run to the shore to catch fish but ended up falling into the water several times instead.


    Watching her return dripping wet, Alexander sighed.


    Luckily, there were clean robes. She took off her wet clothes and put on one of the robes.


    Seeing her in just the robe, Alexander''s expression turned peculiar.


    Fortunately, there were only two of them there.


    Quinn took the pile of dirty clothes to the shore to wash them, then brought them back to dry on the yacht. As she watched the clothes fluttering in the wind on the yacht under the setting sun, the day passed by. It took Alexander about four to five days to recover enough to move around.


    After these days, the food on the yacht ran low; and if he didn''t recover soon, both he and Quinn would starve there.


    Quinn had been nibbling onpressed biscuits for days and was famished. There were fish in the sea, but she couldn''t catch any.


    On the sixth day, Quinn woke up from hunger; forcefully suppressing the gnawing feeling in her stomach, she checked Alexander''s wounds.


    The wound was healing decently, showing no signs of infection or inmmation, with signs of scabbing. However, he still couldn''t exert force on it, as it might reopen identally.


    The disinfectant had run out, so she could only use thest bottle of mineral water to clean his wound.


    The herbs she had dried in the previous days were now ready. Quinn ground them into powder with a dagger and applied it to Alexander''s wound.


    Alexander mentioned that damp herbs couldn''t be used to treat the wound now, so this was the only option.


    After applying the herbs, Alexander put on a robe and got up from the yacht.


    This was the first time he had disembarked these days.


    Quinn followed him, watching as he walked into the water.


    "Give me the dagger." Alexander reached out his hand for her to pass it to him.


    Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you''re not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on theplete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it''s all free! Quinn immediately ced the dagger in his palm. He stood in the water, signaling for Quinn not to move.


    Not long after, a few fish started swimming nearby. Alexander chose the right moment, threw the dagger in his hand, and urately speared a fish.


    Quinn''s eyes widened in delight. She ran over, picked up the fish from the water, and held it up for him to see.


    Her face beamed with a smile, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration for him.


    Standing in the gentle morning breeze, with her hair lightly fluttering and the blue sky and sea as her backdrop, she looked like a pure and ethereal being, akin to a fallen angel. Seeing her lost in thought, Alexander involuntarily smirked, raising his chin. "Take it up."


    Quinn nodded, returned the dagger to him, and walked back to the shore, cing the fish in a box. The box had been detached from the yacht and had good sealing.


    Alexander caught a few more fish and tossed them into the box. He then returned to the shore and said to Quinn, "Let''s go inside and see what else we can find." Quinn nodded, picked up an empty box, and followed him.


    When they reached the forest, Alexander instructed her to dig for wild vegetables. They gathered quite a lot of them.
