Island Survival: Starts by chopping a tree-Chapter 54 The art of lying

[Mass Release]

Emma hurriedly leaned back as she released the mighty rod, which had lost its glory and limped down.

She then put down both of her hands on the ground, as she opened her mouth, dripping with white liquid.

"This is so much," she muttered inwardly as she spit it on the ground. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Suddenly, she felt hot from her lower bottom, in the region above her public hair.

Inside her clothes, she did not know that a small pink tattoo with a love symbol was formed.

(If you are questioning whether this is a slave contract, you are mistaken. Remember why Jeff’s mother cried after knowing the truth in the flashback? this symbol is the reason)

When the heat was gone, she continued her puking until the last drop fell. She then stood up on the ground, her breast swinging, and Jeff could see it if he glanced down.

Then his libido turned hard again, seeing this Emma panicked. "Hurry and wear your pants" She exclaimed anxiously, since calming it down was actually this hard.

To avoid his little brother being hard, she quickly wore her bra and her blazer to cover herself up. Jeff also put on his underwear and his shorts as he stared at her.

"Um, do you want me to take responsibility?" Jeff asked with a red face.

He was feeling anxious since what they had done was beyond normal companion and friend relations.

Jeff knew that he had to man up and be responsible since this had already escalated too much. Emma’s heart warmed when she saw his look and what he said.

She could not help but let her heart bloom as a happy expression adorned her face. But she controlled it; she looked at him nonchalantly.

"Don’t mention it. I just only helped since it concerns your health, so treat it as that. Don’t worry; it’s voluntary, so you don’t have to feel guilty." Emma explained, dusting off the dust and debris in her blazer.

Jeff hearing the answers nodded his head, he felt a little disappointment but did not press on since she had already decided.

"We should go back since we have been gone for about two hours now," he reminded her.

Since the girls back at the camp would be suspicious at the two of them for having disappeared for a long time.

Emma nodded since if they asked, she did not know what to explain if they asked her.

Jeff then went to the river and picked up the hide, making it wet again so it would not be hard to stretch later if it was dried.

Glancing at the side, he saw Emma lowering herself as she scooped up some river water and put it in her mouth.

She then cleaned her mouth, rinsing the remaining cum and its smell. She then washed her face in the river water to make it as good as new.

When she was done, she saw Jeff looking at her, "Let’s go," he said to her when she was done as they then made their way back to the camp.

Upon arriving at the camp, the girls looked at them strangely. Emma, feeling the weight of their gazes, was sweating profusely.

"Oh no, did they see through it directly?" she exclaimed in horror, her arms trembling.

Jeff, with his sharp mind, already had an excuse in mind. Smiling, he raised his voice slightly.

"Sorry we are late. Washing this hide takes a lot of time. Because it needed to rinse to become flexible, is there a problem?" he asked the group, his eyes narrowing in confusion.

Hearing what he said, the rest of them did not believe it. Washing a hide will not take some hours, right? But they don’t know if this is true since they are not survivalists.

Charlotte saw Jeff’s expression, which was devoid of lies, and Emma’s nonchalant demeanor made her wonder if her thoughts were incorrect.

But her gut is literally telling her that something must have happened. "Captain, are you sure that it can take 2 hours for the hide to be draped in water to be stretchable?" Jessica asks, her gaze was intense as she tries to look into him.

Jeff, hearing him being questioned, used his memories and experience to the fullest, combining every possibility to come up with a good lie.

Feeling the wave of pressure, he knew that they were skeptical. Seeing that Jeff was being questioned, Emma felt her heart stir.

"Are we getting caught now?" she exclaimed as she felt shy if that happened.

Jeff knew he couldn’t let this suspicion grow. His mind wandered to a psychology book he’d read, "The Art of Subtle Persuasion," which explained how to lie convincingly.

While maintaining steady eye contact, a calm tone, and throwing in just enough factual detail to sound credible.

His memory clicked into action as he began to piece together some of the information from survival guides, biology texts, and even engineering books.

Dang, it felt like a fucking computer as he pieced every book in his mind to finally formulated an explanation.

While you read this for 10-20 seconds, when Jessica asks this. He explained it 3 seconds later, showcasing how fast his mind works when it comes to organizing things.

"Yes, it does take 2 hours," he said confidently.

"Since the hide had been dried for a day, its fiber stiffened and became less elastic. So that’s why soaking it to breathly won’t loosen the fiber enough; this can lead to cracks or uneven tension during stretching," he explained, and all of the girls listened attentively.

Emma behind him also listened to his lie, which is really believable if she does not know the whole story.

"That’s why the soaking needs time, since it’s a careful balance between restoring the flexibility without over-softening it. So that’s why when we were gone for two hours, there was nothing to be suspicious about," he finished.

Jeff’s steady and confident tone made his explanations sound entirely believable.

Charlotte, still watching closely at the two expressions, did not find something wrong with their faces.

It was calm as a lake. Their calm demeanor and Emma’s lack of reaction made her wonder if her gut feeling was wrong at all.

If an experienced CEO cannot see this lie? Then what about the three girls who had not experienced the world would think?

Jessica, who was still suspicious but found his explanation so believable, nodded slightly, accepting it.

Layla and Ariana also believed him, and they accepted his words. It was clear enough that Jeff had convinced them with a lie.

He couldn’t help but sigh internally, realizing his lie succeeded. His quick thinking truly saved him.

"Is that the boar hide?" Ariana asked as she closed in the distance, looking at hide in his hands.

Emma, who was behind Jeff, was still in awe of the fact that this young man’s talent for fabricating the most believable scenarios was godly.

"Damn, if he’s an actor, he literally had a chance to win an Oscar," she exclaimed loudly in her mind.

Jeff nods his head in reply, "Yes, it’s still wet since; it was just not long when it was draped in the river." He continues his lie.

Ariana nodded in understanding as she looked at the boar’s large hide. Jessica, who had already trusted his words, examined it closely, with Layla by her side.

"So, captain, what are young to make this into?" Layla asked, gazing at his face.

When asked, Jeff replied, "I’ve planned to make some extra clothes for you girls since your current clothes are starting to wear out from being worn repeatedly."

Hearing why he did this, the girls and even Charlotte, who was located a bit far away, felt their hearts soften. The reason he actually did this was for them.

Each of them felt guilty and heavy in their hearts for suspecting him. Even Emma was stunned to learn that this was his genuine reason.

This made her heart warm as well, and she bloomed a beautiful smile. "Hehe, I’m going to give you a reward again for this," she whispered in a low voice that only she could hear.

"Oh yeah, there are some clothes in the suitcase that you can wear if you’d like. I won’t need them since I’m comfortable just wearing thi short. You all don’t have to worry because I can make a short out of hide or even banana leaves if I want to," he continued, which made them even more emotional.

Such a good captain, Ariana then began to tear up as she sobbed loudly, making the girls confused by her cries.

Since she was close to Jeff, she leaned into him, making direct contact. Since Jeff was taller, her face rested against his chest.

The girls, witnessing this sudden action, were filled with jealousy and anger. The most jealous among them was Emma, as she considered him her property.

Jeff, who was the most shocked, was just frozen in place as Ariana placed one of his delicate hands on his chest.

Looking up, her and Jeff’s faces were just within close proximity. If Jeff leaned a little, he and Ariana could kiss.

Seeing her crystal-clear tears, "Oh captain, you are really a good person. I don’t know how to repay your kindness. So that’s why I decided to give myself to you as compensation," she said loudly, which they heard loudly, as she said with this without any shame.
