The ship arrived at 11:50 with a signal transmitter, a new generator, flowers, priest, and police. The police took notes of everyone in the study and arrested Kathy.
Eric Jordan was a bit down when he came out of his study.
Hannah Clarke stepped forward.. "Are you ok?"
"Hannah, Stephen is my friend. I can't leave at this time. Would you like to stay with me?" Eric Jordan said in a euphemism.
Hannah Clarke nodded.
Stephen was likely to be Amelia William's partner. It was not appropriate for Amelia William to leave at this time. If Amelia William will stay here, she won't leave either.
Eric Jordan smiled and took Hannah Clarke's hand,. "You must be hungry. Let's have something to eat first. Maybe we'll be busy in the afternoon."
"Okay." As soon as Hannah Clarke turned around, she saw James Grayson standing behind her, only a few centimeters away. She almost bumped into him. She was scared and dodged.
"Why you seemed flustered?" James Grayson said in a deep voice.
"How can you stand quietly behind others? You scared me, why do I seem flustered?" Hannah Clarke retorted, giving him a disdainful look.
James Grayson sneered and didn't answer her, as if he did not pay attention at all.
His attitude was to make sure that she was flustered.
Hannah Clarke had a kind of unable to speak bitter suffering, she just gave him a disdainful look again.
James Grayson did not look at her. He looked at Eric Jordan,. "I will stay tonight. I told Stephen that you and I will stay with him at night."
Eric Jordan, "..."
Hannah Clarke, "..."
"I just came here to tell you about it. If you are hungry, dinner is served." James Grayson finished, turned around, and left.
Hannah Clarke and Eric Jordan looked at each other, and their expressions were very strange.
Eric Jordan smiled and said meaningfully, "very interesting personHe is very interesting."
Interesting person? ha-ha. What Eric Jordan hasd found interesting in him? He iwas just a very domineering person.
Hannah Clarke laughed in her heart.
"I have had a lot of breakfast. I'm not really hungry now. I want to go to the seaside to catch crabs. Would you like to come with me?" Hannah said softly.
Eric Jordan's smile was more dazzling,. "Carry the bucket. We should be able to catch a lot of crabs at the seaside and find sea urchins, and so on."
Hannah Clarke thought of the scene when she lived alone with James Grayson at that uninhabited island.
Sunset, evening wind, beach, bonfire, crabs, fish, bamboo shoots, and boar meat, especially the boar meat with bamboo shoots, the thick juice, soft and rotten ribs, and delicious bamboo shoots everything was delicious.
So far, in her impression, she had never eaten such good food.
Thinking of the beauty of that time, Hannah Clarke's mouth subconsciously had a smile, adding a layer of feminine tenderness and gentleness, "Llet's go, catch the crabs, I'll call Amelia William."
Eric Jordan looked at her smile, his was heart moved, and he took Hannah Clarke's hand.
Hannah Clarke thought that Eric Jordan hasd something else to tell her. She looked at Eric Jordan.
Eric Jordan pulled her into his arms and picked her up.
"How do you..." Hannah Clarke wanted to refuse.
Eric Jordan laughed and interposed, "Let's go, catch the crabs."
With that, he put Hannah Clarke down.
Hannah Clarke helplessly smiled, Eric Jordan really seemed naive, "Ok."
When they went to the beach, Eric Jordan took the bucket and put two shovels in it. They were wearing rubber gloves.
Crabs feel danger. Those who were near the sea ran into the sea. Those who were far away from the sea will get into the sand. Some who were slow will be caught.
Stephen didn't eat seafood because of gout. There were many crabs here.
Hannah Clarke thought of her catching crabs with James Grayson at the seaside.
James Grayson put a net on the bottom of the sea. He caught many fish and crabs. The crabs were naturally salty and fresh.
If it wasn't for the virus in her body, she would like to stay on the island with James Grayson and lead a life of no struggle and, far away from the rest of the world.
But there is no "if" in the world.
Hannah Clarke caught a crab and looked at it with a silly smile.
"Let's not go back for lunch. How about bakinged crabs here?" Eric Jordan asked Hannah Clarke.
"OK, but you have asthma. Stay away from the dust. Later, you can continue to catch. I'll be responsible for making a fire and baking crabs. When it's done, I'll ask you to come and eat."
"Division of work and cooperation, this arrangement is very good." Eric Jordan took out the lighter and handed it to Hannah Clarke,. "It must be hard for you."
"It's not hard to serve own people." Hannah Clarke was in a good mood and said with a smile.
She asked Amelia William to look for the dried wood. She built a circle with a stone by the sea. In the middle of the circle was a stone. The deadwood was surrounded on both sides of the stone and ignited. They put the crab on the stone in the middle, pressed it with a long branch, and then put crabs on it.
After a while, five crabs were roasted and placed on the big leaves were picked by Amelia William.
"It's delicious. I feel like I'm even hungrier." Amelia William sat next to Hannah Clarke and reached out for the baked crab.
"Be careful. It's very hot. You can eat it when I bake the second batch. The temperature will be just right." Hannah Clarke reminded.
Amelia William lay down apologetically, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, blowing the sea breeze, "I'll miss such a day."
Hannah Clarke raised a smile and looked at Amelia William,. "When I was on the island with James Grayson, there were boars, wild bamboo shoots, mushrooms, wild vegetables, and James Grayson's pistols that could be used. So we were not afraid of wild animals and were very safe. We also built a house on a tree close to the sea. Even if it rained, we were not afraid of it. We could live forever."
Amelia William looked at the smile on Hannah Clarke's face.
She understood why Hannah Clarke was in such a good mood because she thought of the happy time before.
She didn't believe that Hannah Clarke had no love for James Grayson...
Amelia William grabbed a crab, peeled it in half, the steam came out and her hand was almost scalded.
"Amelia, is it too hot?" Hannah Clarke was worried.
Amelia William put the peeled crab on the leaf and blew the hot red palm. "Hannah, some people's love is like this hot crab. If you don't let go, you will hurt yourself. It's better to give up."
"I understand. You silly girl, wait." Hannah Clarke walked into the forest, and after a while, she pulled out a cactus, put it on the leaves, crushed it with the branches, and put the juice on Amelia William's palm.
"The crushed out juice of aloe vera, cactus or green tea leaves plus sesame is very effective in treating scalds." Hannah Clarke said to Amelia William.
"So, a lot of people forget the pain after the scar is cured." Amelia William exclaimed.
Hannah Clarke's eyes flickered slightly. She didn't speak, but her thoughts drifted far away.
Until someone came and sat beside her and she felt the familiar breath.
She looked up and saw that James Grayson had sat down where Amelia William was sitting. But she didn't find out when Amelia William walked away.
