Chapter 1244 In Your Heart, Is There No Place for Rachel?
"This place is for those who are desperate and have no other options. But the ones who go in are usually already in deep trouble. Here, ambition and greed are magnified to the maximum. Your friend went to Ocean Harmony for what reason? It can't be just for money, right?"
"He said before he left that an elder of his was trapped inside, and he needed to rescue them."
"After Ocean Harmony sets sail, it will navigate around the Meadowbrook Sea for a week, a total journey of 15 days. If it encounters a storm, it could extend by two to three days, but no more than 20 days at the longest."
Natalie clenched her fingers. "So, what happens to those who don't come out?"
"I don't know. I do know someone who came out, but he went in just for the thrill of it, a son of a wealthy family. Ocean Harmony is very mysterious; only those who have been there know what it's like. If your friend doesn't come out after 20 days, he's probably stuck inside. It's rare for people to come out after staying for two cycles."
"Isn't this illegal? Isn't this unlawful detention?"
"They sign an agreement before boarding. Besides, normal people wouldn't go there, except for some rich and powerful playboys. These playboys think they're invincible, but when they get scared and cause trouble inside, their families just pay to get them out."
Natalie understood. "So, the friend you know was also a playboy who was bailed out by his family?"
Jamie paused, then seemed to chuckle lightly. "He was indeed a playboy, but he got out on his own. If you want to know more about Ocean Harmony, I can introduce you to him."
"Alright, thank you. Give me his contact information."
Jamie said, "Adrian knows as much about this as I do. Why did you come to me instead of him? Is it because he's lost his memory and you don't know how to approach him?"
Natalie sighed. "Jamie, do you realize how gossipy you sound right now?"
"And besides, if you can handle it, why should I bother him?"
Jamie, who had been calm and gentle, suddenly became serious.
"Natalie, I need to apologize about Andrea. Her injury was her own fault and had nothing to do with your dog. She wasn't like this before. Ever since she woke up from her coma, she's changed a lot. Don't hold it against her."
Natalie was silent for several seconds.
"You like Andrea."
There was a pause on the other end before he answered.
"That's none of your business."
"What about Rachel? Doesn't she have a place in your heart?"
"Natalie, you're meddling too much."
"You don't have to like Rachel, but don't hurt her. You want to protect Andrea and cover up her mistakes. I want to protect the innocent Rachel. She's just naive and likes you, but she hasn't done anything wrong."
"Natalie, today you need my help." Jamie's voice was clear and calm, with a hint of pressure.
It came through the receiver into Natalie's ear.
Natalie smiled gently. "Didn't you just ask me for a favor too? To not hold a grudge against Andrea. I can let this go for now, but I'll be filming for four months. During that time, you better keep Andrea in check. Adrian may not remember me, but that doesn't mean we have no feelings left. Even if Adrian disregards morals and gets involved with his so-called sister Andrea, Ruben won't allow it. If you can't manage Andrea, then let me help you."
