Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 870

On the way back, they decided to take a luxury yacht instead of the helicopter.

Dean noticed Emmy seemed a little down, so he suggested they visit another island to see the camellias. He told her the flowers were blooming everywhere, turning the hills into a sea of color.

The yacht slid across the turquoise water, everything peaceful until they passed an island and saw thick smoke curling into the sky.

A crew member quickly came over to Dean. “Sir, it looks like the island ahead is on fire.”

Dean barely hesitated. His business instincts took over. “Get us closer. Find out who owns that island and if they’re interested in selling.”

“Yes, sir.”

Once they docked, Emmy wanted to go ashore and look around. Dean caught her hand before she could slip away, holding on tight.

“I’ll come with you.”

He wouldn’t let go, so she gave up trying to pull free.

When they reached the scene, they realized the fire had started at a beachfront bar. The flames were already out. Up above, a silver drone hovered in slow, steady circles.

A group of locals were gathered nearby, all talking at once.

“Oh my God, did you see that thing? It’s amazing! Heard it’s the latest model from the States. Infinity, I think?”

A man with sun-darkened skin was practically glowing with excitement. “You should’ve seen it. Those eyes just scanned through the smoke and found the fire in seconds!”

A woman in a floral shirt chimed in. “That’s not all. It kept making announcements, telling us where the gas tanks were, which beams were about to fall… It basically saved the rescue teams!”

“Exactly! If it hadn’t been for those warnings, the fire crew would’ve taken much longer, and someone could’ve gotten hurt. That drone’s like a guardian angel!”

Emmy listened, her eyes drawn up to the drone. It was still circling, sunlight glinting off its smooth body, its electronic voice echoing through the air.

“Warning. Structural cracks detected in support beam two, Sector B. Load-bearing capacity below thirty percent. All rescue personnel, evacuate immediately.”

“Repeat. All rescue personnel, evacuate immediately.”

Hearing the familiar language in the drone’s broadcast and seeing the word “Infinity” printed on its side, Emmy suddenly froze.

She tilted her head, caught off guard by a wave of déjà vu. It almost felt like she should know this drone, like it was something from her own past.
