"Hope Island? What do you want it for?" Charles widened his eyes at Anna who stood before him, not expecting her to make such a request.
"Aren't you wholeheartedly searching for Earth's surface, vowing not to give up until you reach it? If so, you have no use for the islands of the Earth Sea, so just give them to me. I just happen to need the technology from your island."
"Are we really dividing things up like this?"
"Stop beating around the bush. Just tell me if you agree or not. If you don't, I'll let Shanshan take me back, and you can wander around this wretched place alone." Anna's expression did not look like she was joking.
"Alright, it's settled then. Once we return, you can take control of the island at any time." Charles did not want to upset her at this moment.
Now was not the time to argue with Anna. He would discuss things properly with her once they got through the current ordeal.
