Chapter 1439
All the volunteers on the island used to bunk at the locals’ places. Even though they’ve moved out now, they still keep in touch with the islanders.
Word that the islanders had accepted Bane Corporation’s compensation offer and were about to leave en masse spread among the volunteers like wildfire.
Some volunteers were left feeling lost, while others were downright furious!
“It must be that Bane Corporation’s CEO used her accident yesterday to intimidate the islanders. She thinks once they’re gone, they can just trash the corals as they please!”
“Rich people are the worst!”
“We need to make our stance clear, we can’t let her think they’re home free once the islanders leave!”
“Right! Let’s split up, I’ll take a few people to talk to the islanders, see if they’ve been threatened by Bane Corporation’s CEO. If so, I’ll convince them to stay! The rest of you head to where the CEO’s staying, and give her a piece of our mind!”
After some discussion, they divided up the tasks and left the crowd.
Just as Jerry took the lead to Rosalynn’s place, he ran into some familiar faces.
“Jaime! Mike!!!” Jerry called out to Jaime and Mike who just came out.
Jaime was in a foul mood.
He heard about Rosalynn’s accident yesterday and was worried sick, wanting to see her but there was no transportation off the island at night.
As soon as Rosalynn returned, she went right back to dealing with the islanders without resting.
When she got back home, Jaime saw the eyepatch on her face and his heart ached.
Jaime, who already had a chip on his shoulder against the islanders, was now utterly disgusted.
He stormed out full of rage, and Jerry became his punching bag.
“What are you yelling about?” Jaime asked.
Jerry looked furious, as if he’d been greatly deceived: “You two frauds! You’re actually from a wealthy family!”
“What? Is there a law saying the rich can’t protect marine life or be volunteers? You’ve been on this island for so long, you’ve done less than what I did in two days here, all you do is hang banners, were you a banner expert in your previous life?”
Mike was stunned to see Jaime shouting.
“You!” Jerry was left speechless, “I won’t argue with a person. Tonight, I’ll cut the video and expose your ugly faces to the public, let my fans see!”
“Fine Jaime whipped out his phone, fiddled with it, then shoved the screen in Jerry’s face, “I’d like to expose your peeping under female volunteers’ skirts. Let’s see who falls first!”
Jerry glanced at the content on Jaime’s phone, his face turned pale instantly
Jaime had stumbled upon it unintentionally Jerry held a high position among the group.
Mainly because Jerry has three million followers on Tik Tok and has won some environmental-related awards
He seemed like a polite person, but in reality, he was a nasty piece of work.
