Chapter 1430
Rosalynn’s decision was so final, even Wayne wouldn’t be able change it, let alone Evan.
But, due to his persistence, Rosalynn didn’t choose to go back immediately. Instead, she decided to rest for a night,
go to the hospital the next day to get her meds, and then return to the island.
Mike is now the one calling the shots on the island, and it has everyone on edge.
When they heard Rosalynn was coming back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Mike sneered, “Don’t think you can relax now that Gabriella is back. The one who’s gonna punish you
isn’t her, it’s Mrs. Jared!”
Everyone went silent.
“Go get ready and then come to the activity center. Gabriella wants to see you all. Everyone must come!” Mike

Everyone scrambled to obey, then ran out like their lives depended on it.
Mike cursed, “You bunch of uncultured swines, ignoring me when you could have just talked nicely. Now that I’m
pissed, you’re all scurrying like turtles on a beach!”
Before long, everyone on the island had gathered at the activity center.
Even though there were only eight families left on the island, each family had many members, with Osborn having
the fewest.
The rest of the families averaged about a dozen members each.
Rosalynn had a patch over her right eye. When she walked in, most of the residents stood up.
Zenobia seemed distracted.
Her gaze landed on Rosalynn. Today, her face was a little pale and she looked a bit weak, but she was still extremely
beautiful.
Remembering what Wayne told her yesterday, Zenobia felt a heart-wrenching pain.
“Ma’am, are you okay?” Pearl’s grandma asked, her eyes filled with tears, “Is your eye okay?”
Rosalynn smiled gently, “I’m fine. But you can’t fight with a child around you. If she fell and got stepped on
yesterday, the consequences would have been severe.”
“Rest assured, I’ve learned my lesson. I won’t fight anymore!” Pearl’s grandma hurriedly promised.
Rosalynn nodded and sat down.
“Why does everyone look so scared?” Rosalynn glanced at everyone, then turned to Mike, “Did you frighten them?”
“Mrs. Jared said we have to find the person who hurt you!” Mike answered, very righteous.
“Did you find them?” Rosalynn asked.
Mike’s face instantly darkened, “They seem to be protecting each other. No one’s talking!”

“Yeah, it was so chaotic yesterday. We were just focusing on our own fights. How could we have noticed who else
was fighting?”
“Ma’am, please believe us. We mean no harm to you!”
Everyone started discussing.
Rosalynn watched them, feeling it was about time.
She made a gesture for everyone to quiet down, and the room gradually fell silent.
She calmly said, “Yesterday was indeed a bit chaotic. I will talk to my grandma about this. You won’t have to take
responsibility.”
The island residents all sighed in relief and started expressing their gratitude to Rosalynn.
Rosalynn stayed quiet, and after a while, everyone else gradually quieted down too.
“I didn’t call you here because of my injury,” Rosalynn said, her slender fingers lightly tapping on the table. “I heard
some of you arguing yesterday about considering moving out. When I first came to the island, I made my position
clear. Regardless of the outcome regarding the rare coral, it won’t affect the decision that you must leave this
island.”
