Chapter 335: The Island

Caroline's POV:

When Austin and I were exiled to this island, I thought that I'd never see Elizabeth ever again.

After all, I had made some unforgivable mistakes in the past.I was already lucky to have Austin with me
in exile, so I didn't dare to hope for anything more.

Plus, even though the island was isolated, our life here wasn't so bad.

Anthony never skimped on our supplies.

Every week, a drone would drop off food, water, clothes, and other necessities on the beach.

The truth was, Austin and I didn't feel like we were being punished.

Together, we learned to build a house by ourselves and every night, we would sit on the rocks and
watch the sunset.

Actually, our life here was wonderful.

Our only regret was that we couldn't see our child.

But right now, my little princess was lying quietly in my arms.

In that moment, I felt that my life was complete.

"Look, Caroline.She has your eyes.What a beautiful girl."

Austin came close to look at the baby in my arms carefully.

"Caroline, you gave birth to such a cute child.Thank you.You suffered a lot back then.I still get scared
whenever I think about it."



"It was worth it.Just look at how beautiful our daughter is!"

I looked into his eyes, deeply touched by how much he cared about me.

"Caroline, life on this island must be hard for you!" Elizabeth looked at me tearfully.

"Are you eating enough? You lost weight!" I hurried to comfort her.

"No, Mom, I'm fine here.Please don't cry!"

"She's right.Both Caroline and I made irredeemable mistakes.We need to atone for our sins on this
island.In fact, we're already very grateful that our lives have been spared.These days, we thank God
and pray for all of you."

Austin also tried to comfort Elizabeth, patting her on the shoulder.

When Elizabeth told me that she was willing to let Alice visit us, I was touched beyond words.

Thinking about this, I took Austin's hand and together, we knelt before her.

"Mom, thank you.Thank you so much for bringing Alice to see me." Elizabeth grabbed my hand and
helped me and Austin up.

"Oh, my God! What are you doing? Get up!"

With Alice in my arms, I stood up from the ground with Austin.

"Oh, Mom, Austin and I have prepared lunch.You and Jennifer must be tired from the trip.Let's go to the
house."

Austin and I walked in the front and led Elizabeth and Jennifer all the way to the small wooden house
that we built ourselves.



It wasn't that big, and I suddenly realized this as we approached.

What if Elizabeth and Jennifer didn't like it there? It turned out that my worries were unfounded though,
because Jennifer broke into a big smile when she saw the place.

"What a quaint place! Did you build this house yourselves? You're awesome!" Jennifer praised, sitting
at the wooden table in awe.

"Jennifer, you flatter me!" I smiled shyly and hurried to serve the dishes and fruits we had prepared.

"Mom, come and eat.Try the island's fruits.They're very sweet!"

"These dishes might be simple, but they were all cooked with love by Caroline," Austin put the plates
on the table.

"My personal favorite is her grilled fish!"

Austin spoke like a boastful child showing off his toy.I couldn't help but shoot him a look, which made
Elizabeth and Jennifer burst into giggles.

"Okay, okay, okay.So it was my dear daughter herself who cooked the food.Of course I want to have a
taste, " Elizabeth said with a pleasant smile.

We all sat down at the table and dug into the food.

"Oh, Jennifer, I heard that you're pregnant.Eat some more, okay?"

I picked up a dish and put some roasted hares onto Jennifer's plate.

"We wish both you and Anthony happiness!"



"Thank you, Caroline.Oh, and the dishes you cooked are so delicious.You're a wonderful cook,"
Jennifer said sweetly.

Seeing the sincerity in her smile, I couldn't help but feel guilty.

Only Jennifer would be so kind and forgiving so as to come visit me and Austin after what we did to her.

In that moment, I vowed that I would try my best to make it up to her and Anthony.

Austin's POV:

Seeing Elizabeth again, I found that there was no hatred in my heart, only gratitude.

I knew that it was thanks to her that Caroline and I weren't sentenced to death and were instead sent to
live on this uninhabited island.To make her happy, I started talking about all the interesting things that
happened when Anthony and I were children.

Both Elizabeth and Jennifer were amused by my stories, their eyes twinkling with interest.

Seeing this, tears welled up in my own eyes.I missed Anthony somehow.Alas, I felt sorry for him.

He was such an excellent king, and a good brother.Just then, the baby's cries sounded from the
bedroom.

"Alice is crying.I'll go see her." Caroline stood up in a hurry.

"Please enjoy the food.I'll be back soon."

Worried about her and the baby, I stood up to join her.

"I'll go with you, honey."



Together, we rushed to the bedroom where we found little Alice crying.

"Oh, my sweetheart must be hungry."

Caroline felt sorry for our daughter.She gently picked up the baby and sat down on a chair.

"I'll feed her." I also sat down next to Caroline.

She unbuttoned her shirt, revealing her plump breast, and stuffed her nipple into the baby's mouth.

Alice stopped crying immediately and began to suckle the milk.

"Austin, look at how big Alice has gotten.I didn't expect our child to grow up so quickly."

Caroline looked at the baby with maternal tenderness and sighed bitterly.

"The last time I saw her, she was a tiny newborn.I feel so guilty that I can't raise her myself.This is the
first time I've fed her!"

"Don't say that, honey.You're a good mother.I know how much you love her,"

I comforted Caroline.

When the baby was full, Caroline and I tried to coax her back to sleep.I had never done this before and
didn't know what to do.I began to hum a lullaby awkwardly.

"Go to sleep, my dear baby.Daddy loves you.Daddy loves you."

I didn't expect that my hoarse voice would actually lull the child into sleeping.

Alice closed her eyes and Caroline laid her back on the bed.

"Alice loves you very much," Caroline whispered softly.



"Caroline..."

I hugged Caroline excitedly, but then I felt something wet on my chest.I looked down, only to find milk
stains on her chest.

"Oh, maybe it's because I haven't breastfed in so long and I can't control my milk."

Caroline frowned worriedly.

"What should I do? My clothes will always get wet if that's the case."

I shot her a naughty smile.

"It's not a big deal.If the child can't drink it all, just give it to me."
