The airport was more than thirty kilometers away from Sitges Island. It would take nearly an hour on the highway. At around 1 o’clock, the nanny car parked at the ferry terminal, and after expressing her gratitude to Evan, Phoebe disembarked.

As the night fell, the sea breeze blew, and she couldn’t help but shiver.

Watching the nanny’s car disappear into the distance, she brushed her wind-blown hair and briskly walked towards the pier.

The view by the seaside was vast, and she could see a deserted island hidden in the darkness in the distance, like a fierce beast lurking in the night.

Just as Phoebe arrived at the pier, she saw a wooden ship approaching, with white splashes of water tumbling on the surface, and the radar sound booming.

Quickly walking over, Phoebe saw a crew member carrying a camera getting off the ship. “Excuse me, are you a crew member of the Wilderness Survival show?”

“I am, and who are you?” The muscular boy carrying the camera, dressed in floral swim trunks commonly worn by the beach, looked rough.

Phoebe quickly introduced herself, “Hello, I am Phoebe, the director of QUEEN Entertainment. We have an artist who participated in Wilderness Survival, but we heard she went missing. Have you found her?”

“We found her. Mr. Reynolds from your company came and took her away. Don’t you know?” the boy said.

Phoebe was taken aback. She didn’t wait long at the intersection before she met Evan. The time she and Theodore arrived at the pier shouldn’t have exceeded half an hour.

“My bag was left in the car, and I couldn’t reach Mr. Reynolds, so I didn’t know he had taken her away.” Phoebe followed the camera boy and walked forward.

“Your artist is difficult. She complained about mosquitoes as soon as she stepped on the island. She didn’t even follow the director’s instructions over the communicator, quarreled with her teammates, and went into the primitive forest on her own.” The camera boy expressed his grievances, as if he had finally found someone to vent to.

Phoebe frowned, “She didn’t follow the instructions?”

“That’s right. She said survival shows with scripts are not thrilling enough. She insisted on going into the primitive forest alone. Before the show started, the director mentioned that the primitive forest might have dangers, not large predators, but in summer, there could still be poisonous snakes or something. So, when we did the preliminary exploration, we didn’t hide any information about leaving the island in the primitive forest.” The camera boy was filled with frustration. Vanessa’s disappearance interrupted the progress of the guests’ filming and increased their workload. In this scorching summer, who wouldn’t have complaints?

Phoebe quickly apologized, and the boy, finding her attractive with a gentle demeanor, and limping while walking, said, “You’re truly remarkable, coming all the way here. Did you hurt your foot?”

“It’s nothing.” Phoebe was once again moved.

“Don’t underestimate yourself at such a young age. When you get hurt, only you will care. This Miss Fitzroy from your company has a big attitude. It’s probably going to be difficult for anyone to use your company’s artists in the future.”

Phoebe bit her lip, suppressing her anger, and offered another apology before asking, “Are you going back to the hotel where the crew is staying? Can I catch a ride with you?” “Sure.”

Phoebe got in the car with the camera boy. The hotel was not far from the pier. After about twenty minutes, the car stopped outside the hotel. Phoebe got out of the car and looked around. The hotel was an ordinary business hotel with a small lobby and average decorations.

Once inside, she borrowed a phone from the front desk and called Theodore. No one answered at first, and it wasn’t until her fourth attempt that someone picked up. A man’s voice came through the line, sounding very indifferent. “Who is this?” Phoebe felt a surge of grievance in her heart and said, “I’m Phoebe. I’m currently staying at the hotel where the show group is. I heard that you took Vanessa away.”

“Yes, she’s with me now.” Upon hearing these words, Phoebe felt her heart being cut with a knife, and her voice became unstable. “Is she okay?”
