A Relentless Pursuit for Love -
Chapter 827
Chapter 827 It was the first time in many years for it to happen. Sawyer looked at everyone andexplained lightly, “It's not that we don’t want to tell any of you. We were badly hurt then. Notbecause of the injury from the accident but when we were fighting with Shawn. When w desertedisland, we basically lived a primitive lifestyle. We had to eat insects and harvest honey to survive. Weonly got in touch with the outer world about a year ago.”
Everyone's faces looked horrified as they listened in on the conversation. Sawyer was never a personto ever exaggerate on such things. Although he said it with a very easy and relaxed manner, theycould easily tell that Sawyer and Primrose never had it easy over the past few years.
The rest of them had went through a lot of hardships to get to where they were now. However,there was no saying that they could survive once they were stranded on a deserted island. Noteveryone could have the ability to adapt to primitive life or to survive out in the wild.
Regardless of anything, Sawyer and Primrose looked like they had not not aged at all. Instead, theyeven looked younger than how they used to be.
Sage zoned out and was less aggressive. She looked at her parent with pity, and some guilt evenseeped through too. When she found out that they were still alive, she was thrilled but later herheart was consumed with hatred and betrayal. Not once had she thought about how difficult it wasfor them to survive.
In her heart, she always looked at her parent as role models. They were people with superpowersthat could withstand and endure anything. After today, she finally realized that no matter howpowerful and strong one was, they were also just human beings and had things that were out oftheir control.
"Don’t give us that look. No matter how hard it was, we still survived.” Primrose said positively, “Aslong as we're alive, nothing else would matter. What's the saying again? Every cloud has a silverlining. The only worst part about all of this was that Shawn had been badly wounded this time. Atleast we could at least live a peaceful life for a short period without worrying. Let's talk aboutsomething else. We've not been home for quite a while.”
Although they managed to hurt Shawn with guns and knives, his subordinates fought through andmanaged to rescue him. Everyone was upset and annoyed that they did not get rid of Shawn onceand for all. They were afraid that Shawn would recover and that he would make his comebackHowever, Primrose did not allow them to go after him. First of all, their side had also suffered severecasualties. Compared to Shawn, she treasured her husband and kids’ life more. Secondly, Shawn wasstill a mortal being. It would not be easy for him to make a comeback after suffering such a seriousinjury; it was hard to say if any doctor could even save his life. They knew that they would have theopportunity, if it ever comes in the future, to finally get rid of him once and for all.
While they were chatting, Elder Norah was squatting near the door. He said nothing while smokinghis tobacco pipe; almost like a statue. After Sawyer finished with his drip, he put on his clothes andwent to have a chat with his old man.
Primrose stayed in the living room to instruct and remind the rest of the people about
handling the aftermath of the fight. Although they had the upper hand in this, they should not gloatabout it to others.
Sage and her brothers went to the newly set up ward on the first floor to check on Tim and Kane'sconditions. Ross did not participate in the family meeting just now because he needed to take careof Tim and Kane. All of them took turns explaining what happened to Sawyer and Primrose over theyears. They expressed their sadness in the tone when they spoke.
Sage sat beside the table and said nothing with her head lowered. Tim and Kane were smoking toease the painm but also partly because of their boredom,
Luther asked Tim, “Tim, when did you get in touch with mom and Uncle Sawyer? You were reallyvery secretive about it.”
Tim blew out a puff of smoke. He replied, “A few months ago.”
Sage heard it and lifted her head to look at Tim with her deep black eyes. Both of them made eyecontact but Tim's expression did not change. “I lied to you. If you're not okay with it, you can justcome and hit me. Don't just sit there with a hurtful face. Where are your claws? Did Jace take themaway?"
