Chapter 272 Number One Jinx
Nicole chewed on the fish expressionlessly. Without any seasoning, she could not taste the freshness of the fish.
The fish was washed ashore by the sea, and Nathaniel picked it up and roasted it over some dried leaves.
Except for the salty and fishy smell, it was just bland and tasteless.
“I want to eat at that old French restaurant in the streets of Paris, coupled with a glass of white wine.
It’s simply perfection…” > Nathaniel ate with gusto. When he heard her words, he looked up at her and came over with a smile.
a “Nikki, if you don’t want to eat, you can give it to me…” He made a move to grab the fish from her.
Nicole dodged and glared at him while guarding her food. “You’d better watch out! Or else… Tigger will bite you…” To the side, Tigger bared its teeth at Nathaniel.
Nathaniel said tentatively, “If you’re bored, go dress up like the indigenous people. I’ll show you their community.” Nicole immediately shook her head.
He wanted her to walk to her death just because of boredom? Just hearing the words “indigenous people” scared her, much less dressing up like them! Absolutely not! The sky was cloudless, revealing an endless stretch of clean and clear blue.

Nicole’s heart shuddered violently. It was like a hand was squeezing her throat, and her body’s limits struggled against her consciousness.
She followed the orders of her consciousness without a moment of hesitation. The cold wind was interspersed with the occasional sound of gunfire.
They did not dare relax for even a moment! Their expressions grew gloomier, but they could only speed up their pace and run forward desperately.
The pirates must have seen the SOS mark left by Nicole and tracked them down. Seeing the smoke rising from the primitive tribe ahead, they breathed a sigh of relief.
