Hattie dismissed him with a wave of her hand, "What are you scared of? The sea is calm. It doesn't look like a storm is coming. Just go over there, quickly!"

Once close enough to capture the figures on the yacht with her phone, Hattie hurriedly took a picture and sent it to Zelena.

The image was slow to load on the plane, and Zelena grew increasingly impatient.

'See, I wasn't wrong! That's Violeta! I can't capture it well with my phone, but with my binoculars, it's clear! That's Violeta with Jasper, Hayden, Zoren, and Liam! And yes, that yacht is Niall's! How could Violeta be hanging out with them?'
