She really overlooked this point.
When she discovered she was on a strange island, she was so terrified she almost went mad; how could she possibly calm down to think clearly?
"What on earth do they want to do?"
"Throwing us onto an island just to make us disappear for two days? But what good does that do them?"
"I don’t know about that either."
"Scarlett Yates, are you sure soone will really find us within two days?" Alice was still on edge.
Scarlett shook her head, "I can’t be sure. I’m just making guesses based on my analysis."
"So, does that an we might be stuck on this island forever?" Alice’s heart, which had just cald a bit, grew restless and anxious again because of her words.
She kept sighing beside Scarlett, anxiously muttering, "What are we going to do if we can’t leave here?"
"There’s nothing on this island, no way for people to live at all."
"No food, no water, no electricity, and once it gets dark, you can’t see your hand in front of your face. It’s truly terrifying."
"Also, could there be wild beasts on this island that erge from the dense forest when it gets dark? If they discover us, won’t they eat us?"
"There’s also no shelter here. What if it rains heavily? Won’t we be drenched to the bone?"
"This place is so frightening, I can’t stand being here for even a second."
Alice’s emotions beca increasingly agitated, as if she were on the brink of collapse. She clenched her fists, her breath erratic and rapid, "What should I do, what should I do, I don’t want to die on this island."
As she spoke, she covered her face with one hand and started to cry, her whole body shaking.
"I don’t want to die, I really don’t want to die, I want to leave here..."
Scarlett stopped and watched her quietly.
With this cry, Alice’s emotions completely collapsed, her body slowly squatting down, covering her face with both hands, and sobbing incessantly.
The profound fear had shattered her reason and the calm she had barely maintained.
"I really don’t want to die here."
Scarlett didn’t know what to say.
At this mont, she couldn’t bla Alice for losing control of her emotions.
After all, she knew the truth, so she could be so composed and calm.
But Alice knew nothing.
She didn’t know why they were thrown onto this island, nor did she know that their stay here was only temporary.
Crying out of fear was a very normal thing.
Even though Alice had just done sothing very excessive to her a few hours ago, seeing her cry so brokenly, Scarlett couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for her.
Scarlett quietly watched her for a while, just thinking of saying sothing comforting to ease her mind, when Alice suddenly lifted her head and glared at her with her red-rimd, swollen eyes.
"Scarlett Yates, are you laughing at ?"
Scarlett was startled, "I..."
"Seeing like this, are you feeling pleased? If I really die on this island, do you think you can leave here alive?" Her eyes were bloodshot, and at a glance, they seed to be oozing blood, her gaze chillingly sinister.
Scarlett suddenly felt that bringing Alice with her was a wrong decision.
This woman’s hatred for her was truly ever-present and unhidden.
