Chapter 1906 Return To The Small Island

Chapter 1906 Return To The Small IslandAs the ship drew closer, the villagers became increasingly cautious. Due to the approaching vessel's
colossal size, they were on high alert and warily fixed their eyes on it until Elisa got off the ship.
novelbinShe was wearing a black strapless mermaid gown that perfectly accentuated her figure. Her eyebrows
were slightly raised, and her eyes captivating, making her irresistible.
Her fair skin shone in the sunlight.
She was stunningly beautiful.
Elisa's gaze flitted over everyone before finally resting on Gareth, who spotted her at first glance.
The two individuals continued to draw closer, reducing the distance between them.
It took everyone a good while to recognize that the woman was Elisa.
In the meantime, she and Gareth were already in each other's arms.
Their embrace conveyed pure gratitude without a trace of ambiguity or any other implications.
They were grateful to the other person as well as to themselves. Regardless of the process, as long as
the outcome is good, that was all that mattered.
Elisa's lips quirked up as she leaned closer to whisper into Gareth's ear, “I've come back for you,
b*stard.” Gareth returned her smile and said, “Indeed, I'm a b*stard. I shouldn't have left you alone. It must have
been hard for you. Thank you for coming to pick me up.”
The two embraced, sharing words that only they could understand.
It was not until the village chief came out that they finally separated.
Cough! Cough!
A familiar cough echoed through the air. Everyone turned toward the sound, and unsurprisingly, it was
the village chief.
When the village chief heard that Elisa had returned, he found it somewhat unbelievable and hurried
over to assess the situation.
Upon seeing Elisa, he was happy and worried at the same time.
The reason was simple. The village chief had already made arrangements to offer a Nomadic Odyssey
in exchange for a husband for his daughter.
Doing so might be seen as dishonorable and selfish, but he had dedicated half of his life to his
responsibilities and simply couldn't bear to part with his only daughter.
The village chief thought that Elisa would never return. Hence, he kept asking Gareth to marry into his family during this period.
However, the latter firmly rejected the idea every time the village chief brought it up.
Left with no other choice, the village chief and Gareth agreed that if Elisa did not return within half a
month, Gareth would marry Anna.
Gareth merely curled the corner of his lips into a smile and gazed into the distance as if he could see
Elisa beyond the bounds of space.
“She will come back. She definitely will,” he uttered.
The village chief never expected Elisa to return, let alone so swiftly.
The moment Elisa saw the village chief, she returned the Nomadic Odyssey to its rightful owner.
At the same time, she gave the village chief a new type of compass, which was even more accurate
than the Nomadic Odyssey.
The village chief, holding the compass, was at a loss for words.
The villagers on the island were very friendly, wanting to plan a farewell party for Elisa and Gareth.
If all went as planned, the two visitors from afar would be leaving soon.
Everyone went from initial rejection to reluctance for them to leave. Elisa did not refuse their kindness. After all, there was nothing wrong with saying a proper goodbye to
people you had known for a while.
And so, preparations for the farewell party began in full swing.
During this time, Elisa and Gareth stayed in the courtyard, with Elisa sharing with Mrs. Kella everything
she had seen and experienced recently.
It had been thrilling as they had even encountered sharks and pirates along the way.
Nevertheless, they managed to get through the dangers safely.
When he heard Elisa recount her experiences, Gareth furrowed his brows, clearly displaying his
distress.
Despite sharing Gareth's distress, Mrs. Kella was also glad to be fortunate enough to meet such lovely
youngsters.
Mrs. Kella patted Elisa and Gareth's hands before rummaging around to find two jade rings. She
insisted on slipping them onto their fingers.
Elisa kept backing away. “Mrs. Kella, how can we possibly accept something that's yours?”
