Chapter 1779

Renee wondered if the fisherman's family had adopted Quinton willingly or been forced to. Maybe theyknew something about Quinton's family background. There was no point in listening to rumours-shehad to go there and replace out herself.

"Your brother?" Ava tilted her head, looking puzzled. "Shouldn't your brother be living with you? Whywould he live in Garcia Village? Did you live there when you were young? I'm sure you would havementioned it if you did.” "It's a long story. I'll tell you in detail when we're free." Renee didn't say muchbecause she herself didn't know why Quinton had ended up in Garcia Village. She had to replace out thetruth on her own.

After a while, Jeffrey finally finished cooking the seafood and kept everything in a cooler box. "Let's go,Renee. I've made enough food for several meals for the both of US." Jeffrey smiled brightly, looking likean eager child going out to play.

However, Ava looked worried and could not stop sighing. "Son, you must be careful when you getthere, and protect Ren well. You know that place is very dangerous. You cant-’ "Okay, Mom. Thoselegends are lies, and only kids believe them. I certainly don't." Jeffrey interrupted his mother's nagging,impatient to leave. As long as he was going with Renee, it was an exciting adventure, and he waslooking forward to it very much.

Finally, they set off. Garcia Village was far away from Joyner Village, and was located in another bay300 kilometers away. They had to ride a boat to go there, and luckily, Ava's family owned a speedboat.It could take them to Garcia Village with a full tank of gas. After a few hours, they arrived at the dock ofGarcia Village.

Garcia Village was nearer to the middle of the sea compared to Joyner Village, so the scenery therewas more beautiful even though the village was practically deserted. Many fishermen’s houses were

made out of mud, and a lot of them had already collapsed. At sunset, the village looked like a ghosttown, and even though Renee and Jeffrey walked through it for a while, they saw no one.

"Is there anyone around?" Renee called out, trying to replace a local villager.

As they walked on, they felt like something was off, and realized someone was following them. Afterexchanging a look, Renee and Jeffrey decided to part ways. When they reached a junction, Renee tookthe left path while Jeffrey took the right path.

Renee heard someone stepping on leaves behind her, so she pretended to squat down to tie hershoelaces. Then, she swung around and grabbed the person behind her. "Got you!"
