The lights on the ship were hardly enough to bring light to the ocean.
Tyler stood his ground in silence.
"From the moment you stepped foot into the ship, Tyler, I've ordered my men to set sail. I know you
have all the resources you need in Stoneford City, but with this ship so far from the coast at this
moment, your men won't be able to help you," Alex said.
When Tyler arrived, Alex demanded that Tyler was the only one allowed on board, so none of Tyler's

Alex's men remained stunned. "That woman jumped, and so did Tyler..."
"Mister Torres, what... What are we supposed to do?"
"D*mn it!" Alex was furious as he did not expect Gloria to jump into the ocean.
Though he had made a lot of threats, he only meant to force Tyler into choosing, using Gloria as a
